Remarkable Formations

The Garden of the Gods is a region
in Colorado near Colorado Springs,
covering about 500 acres, and remark
able for the strange forms Of the rocks
with which it is covered. The red and
white sandstone assumes grotesque
shapes, to which various names have
been given. For instance, the gate
way is formed by two huge masses Of
rock of bright red color, which are
$50 feet high and between which the
road passes.

Red-Haired Celebrities

We find no reference in biographies
to Caesar having red hair, though he
was of fair complexion. Among others
listed by various authorities as hav-
ing had red hair are the following
Cato, Clovis, Frederick Barbarossa,
William Rufus, Demetrius, Alfieri, Tas-
so, Queen Elizabeth, Red Douglas, Red
Comyn, Otho FL. Camoens, William HI.
Seward, Van Buren. A little bio
graphical research would probably dis
close numerous others.

ingly, in the wool business and Horace
Cheney, interested in the silk industry.
Mr.. Marvin said that these gentle
men, as a general rule, had called to
ask the Tariff Commission to supply
statistical information regarding the
industries and importation.
Mr.. Marvin, in reply to questions,
said that Joseph II. Grundy had called
on him two or three times in relation

Senator Caraway asked Mr.. Marvin
II Burgess had asked for the removal Of
Koch from employment by the Tariff
Commission.
The witness said that Burgess had
complained that Koch's attitude showed
bias and prejudice and that Koch had
sent slips OF paper to the Senators sug-
costing questions to be asked witnesses.
He said that Burgess declared that the
Tariff Commission ought to investigate
the matter, and II it is found that Koch
was biased and prejudiced he should be
discharged.
Chairman Caraway objected to Mr..
Marvins failure to answer his questions
yes or no. saying: None Of us have
learned to live 100 years" The chair
man finally drew from Mr.. Marvin the
statement that the Tariff Commission

charges were submitted in writing. Mr..
Marvin said that no charges had been
submitted in writing by Mr.. Burgess.
Senator Caraway asked about the

President Hoover, complaining Of Koch
Mr.. Marvin said that he had copies
made Of the letter after 1t came to him
from the White House and sent them
to members Of the commission and to
Mr.. Koch.
Mr.. Marvin said that he personally
believed an inquiry into the matter of
the charges made against Koch should
be undertaken.
At this point Senator Blaine ques-
toned Mr.. Marvin in regard to visits

Spanish will be spoken by three
contestants-the Mexican, Cuban and
Peruvian. The language as it Is used in
each Of these lands differs as does the
English spoken in the United States

Inguist judges, who determine the win
ner, find intense interest and often
ground for bitter debate In the manner
OF speech of two contestants who are
using the same mother tongue.
Linguists point out also that German
and Danish are not greatly dissimilar
and that scholars speaking the one are
able to follow with considerable success
the speech OF q person in the other.

orators, the best of their respective
countries, will deliver their speeches

DR.. Hjalmar Schacht, German dele

man whose gentle and moderating in
f1uence did much to remove the post
war difficulties between the European
nations"

be cured by national and international
cooperation.
M. Franck. the Belgian delegate. was
deeply moved and thanked the other
delegations.
"Delacroix had an enviable death in
that he fell like soldier on the field

He testified that Fall took out 81 500
In bonds and he carried the remainder
to New York.
There was a balance of S35, 900 due,
he said, making $233,0 in all. The

the ranch property. He said that $780,
600 OF the bonds went into a safety

With Senator Smoot of Utah Lenroot
called on the former cabinet off1cer just
before Christmas of 1922 at the Ward

transaction. Fall at first declined to
discuss what he termed his private af-

so IN justice to himself, the country
and his party, he then told Lenroot he

The Senator said he did not desire
confidential information, so FAN told
him that he had obtained the money
from Mr.. Mclean.

Daugherty was on the stand only q
few minutes. He testified that his de.

lease.
The jury seemed to take o renewed
interest in the proceedings during the
testimony of former Senator Lenroot.
Earlier in the day they had listened to

tow the model down to the mouth of
the Choptank, where the rougher sur
face Of Chesapeake Bay will give this

If the tests prove successful, Mr..
Armstrong expects to place his first
seadrome, equipped with hangers, shops,
hotel and restaurant accommodations
and heavy cranes for lifting seaplanes
from the water to the elevated floor of
