5, OOO-YEAR-OLD RECORDS STUDIED
Fighting RedHeaded Indian Tribe Denoted by 10000 Well
Preserved Specimens From Nevada Mountain Cave.


"Saiduka'a," or tule eaters, the auburn
haired tribe was credited with strange
powers. According to legend they were
able to leap into the air, seize arrows
that were shot at them and turn them
back at their attackers. They were eX-
terminated, it is believed, in fierce
charge against the cave by the enemy.
Suddenly Wiped Out.
IT. IS, thought that the sudden ex-
termination may account for the preser-
walton of so many possessions of the an
Gent people. The relics have been kept
by the dry Nevada climate and are in a
state of perfection comparable with that
of relics found in Egypt and Peru.
Among the objects discovered, some
Of them buried under IA feet Of debris,
were profuse tectile material, including
basketry and mating, wooden imple-
ments, weapons and sandals.
Prof. A. L. Kroeber of the Univer-
sity of California, declared the material
almost wholly pre-C Caucasian, having a
resemblance of the native culture of
California in historic times. He termed
it immensely valuable because of the

shoots Dice With Prisoners

Shoots Dice With Prisoners
Many of the prisoners brought be-
fore Judge Abernethy are negroes.
and with them he deals out justice
uniquely.
Judge Alb, az he is Familiarity
known. keeps a pair of dice in his
desk and when a negro is brought
before him on charge of craps
shooting ne brings them out.
"Boy," he says, I'VE are going to
shoot craps to see If you 60 free or
get 10 days in jail"
Judge Alb turns up his sleeves and
rolls the dice on his bench. II he
throws natural or makes his
point" the negro goes to Jail: if he
fails, the prisoner goes free. Just to
show that the dice aren't loaded, he
occasionally let's prisoner rool the
bones.
Oath Taken on Skull
No oath is taken on the Bible in
Judge Abs court; he keeps on his
bench q human skull. obtained from
a medical college which he used for
this purpose.
Boy. put your right hand on that
skull and swear to tell the truth, ;
he will tell a negro witness. And the
dusky witness, with trembling fin
gers and bullying eyes, usually tells
the whole truth-and nothing but.
When negro couples appear in
Judge Abs court to be divorced. he
asks man and wife to join right
hands and raise them high in the
air.
Then he reaches across his bench
and knocks the hands apart with a
law book-sometimes it is a tele-
phone directory. but that doesn't
make any difference.
Nov you two are divorced" he
tells them.
The judge keeps in his desk a
small box of "conjure powder" Otis
really only flour) that he uses to
break spells when a negro appears
before him and complains that he
has been "cunjured' by another ne
gro.
"Ee-nee. mi-nee mo! Go, bad con-
jure, so!' gravely says Judge Alb as
he sprinkles the powder on the ne
sro's head.
The victim then leaves the court
room much relieved.
Justice. Not Law
II try to decide cases on their
merit and keep law in the back
ground" says Judge Alb. IF a
Woodworking man comes before me
on charge of drunkenness, sell
dom fine him because if he has
worked hard all week he is entitled
to a little, dram, providing he doesn't
disturb anyone.

me, the persons are guilty of violat-

ing the law but the circumstances
are such that they should not be
punished. A man was once brought
before me for beating his wife. He
admitted that he had whipped her.
but when / found out she had gone
cut with another man and left her
two small children at home with a
negro nurse, l freed the husband
and told him he had a right to whip
his wife if that was the only way to
make her behave and care for her
babies.
Il don't allow lawyers to bring
law books into my court. ] don't
need them. l know enough law to
run my court and if they are not
satisfied with my verdict they can
appeal"
But they seldom appeal. for Judge
Abs brand of honest justice is liked
in Birmingham and both negroes
and whites admire him. He is a
great favorite with the negroes who
trust him implicitly and he often
speaks at their churches and attends
their ball games.
Judge Alb tries all sorts of minor
cases. He once stopped the trial of
d wife beaten to marry a couple

Weather EXPERTS
STUDY T0RNAD0ES
Origin Of "rvistsls' Still Mys-
terry Despite Investigation

Washington, May 3.-(UP)-The
United States Weather Bureau has
learned much during the last two
years about the ''twisterE which fire.
quently play havoc with the middle
west, the United Press was told to-
day.
Revolving at speeds between 200
and 500 miles per hour they pounce
on unsuspecting villages from their
birth-p place in the clouds. Rising as
suddenly az they descend. these giant
vortexes seize another victim, only TO
rise again. They usually travel from
10 to Is miles horizontally before
dissipating themselves.
These 'twisters," according to
Weather Bureau scientists, have
been known to drive straws into
trees. hurl scantlings into steel, and
sweep surprised victims In the air
only to deposit them gently and safe
" half mile away.
Origin Obscure
So much for the habits of lorna
does. Their origin?
THAT" it was said, lis still OBJ
scure, though much light has been
thrown on the subject during the last
two years." The out-of doors is big
laboratory. No one wants to get near
enough to these DEATH dealers to
study them closely. In the few in
stances when they have passed over
meteorological apparatus, 1t has
been wrecked.
Broadly speaking" one scientist
said, I'VE have learned they are
caused by currents of hot and cold
air. the former usually moving north
and the latter south, which, coming
together, form rapidly whirling
vortex whose speed grows as its size
diminishes."
The Mississippi valley is the most
Warm winds moving northward over
the Gulf Of Mexico meet there with
cold air currents from the northern
Rockies. "Twisters'' often result.
They are rare on the Atlantic sea-
board and virtually unknown on the
Pacific coast. After the Mississippi
valley. Australia has more tornadoes
which are popularity and errone-
ously known as 'cyclones"-than
any other part of the globe.
Move Counter Cl0ckwise
In the northern hemisphere. 1t
was said, tornadoes always move in
counter clockwise direction be-
cause of the earth's rotation. Below
the equator their motion is clock
wise.
The small whirlwinds one sees
dancing over fields on warm sum-
mer days are not miniature lorna
does, as is popularity believed. They
are formed always by warm air on
tho earth's surface and may rotate
in either or two directions. Only in
Arizona, according to the Weather
Bureau. do they ever attain enough
velocity to be dangerous. Even there
damage Is small.
Tho popular idea that one should
close doors and windows when a tor
nado approaches is wrong. the
Weather Bureau said, Much of a
twister's damage results from the
sudden expansion of air in houses
which results in an explosion. Open
ings allow the air free course ana
prevent this damage. it was said.
Although the Weather Bureau
cannot forecast tornadoes with ac-
curacy. it does know in advance OF
conditions likely to form them.
These. however. are not localized
and a warning broadcast for a large
vicinity often alarms the inhabitants
