PARLIAMENT LOSES
GIANT POLICEMAN
Favorite Retires After Twenty
Years of Service.

London.-This is story about a
big man with a big record. about
weights, lengths, measures, parlla-
mentary procedure and dignified phys
tcal scutfles in the house Of commons.
In brief, about George Fulcher, weight
294 pounds. twenty years policeman
in the palace Of Westminster.
Fulcher has retired. Fulcher not
only was the most popular member Of
the parliamentary police staff. but
also the most impressive. When he
trod down the long medieval, dimly
lighted corridors the whole British en-
pire, with the possible exception Of
Australia, knew about It.
He was particularly useful in the
event Of an occasional row within the
sacred precincts Of the house. All
Fulcher had to do was to walk right
Into the dozen or so rioters and 1t
was then only question Of the old ir-
resistible force against whatever OBJ
ject stood in the way.
Fulcher knew hundreds, thousands,
even, Of NJ. P.s, for It must be re.
called that Fulcher was a fixture In
the house of commons while NJ. P.s
are not. But Stanley Baldwin prob
ably could tell you more about 1t.
House Of commons police have a
bigger beat to cover than many of
the metropolitan police out on the
streets. They have two miles of cor
ridors to cover on each floor. In some
respects the house Is like the Grand
Central station. There are shops
where one may buy postal cards.
There are innumerable restaurants for
all manner of folk. There are Wis.,
itors' restaurants, members restau-
rants and employees restaurants.
Then there are innumerable ten.
rooms, and. In the words of promi-
nent lady NJ. p, all bad.
All these things tend to make
Fulcher yearn for his old job. So
much so that according to recent re-
ports the former big man of the house
has become mere shadow of his
former self and is said to weigh but
mere $50 pounds, having lost full
stone since he left the dignified por.
tails of Westminster palace.

The salesman trembled with en-
barrassment, put the tie away very
quickly. and said no more.

customs were revealed MS the grent
steam shovel tore open the graves.
Tine skeletons were found lying foce
down, :orcheads resting on surfaced
stones, with arrowheuds. cooking
utensils and other articles buried with
Them.
The story OF the savages' graves
was related In Los Angeles by George
A. Mcdonald, local broker, on whose
property the burial ground was uncov.
cred by drllllng crew engaged In
running a road to the beach for OIL
drilling work.
Scores Of Skeletons.
For so feet from the place where
q steam shovel started digging Into
the edge Of the cliff, which drops
straight to the oceans edge. skeletons
Of Indians were uncovered by the
score, according to Mcdonald.
In the majority Of the graves the
Indians were lying on their faces,
their heads toward the west. In one
grave mother md her child were
discovered, the mother with one arm
half-circling the infant. Close by was
the skeleton Of brave. Embedded
In his forehead was an arrow, one
which undoubtedly struck him down
during battle more than century ago.
Hundreds of arrowheads,. a number
Of grinding and mixing bowls and

removed from the property with the
permission of the owner.

right, resumed building the road to
the edge of the cliff. and throughout
the entire distance turned up many of
the skeletons.

When word was received Of the dis.
covery at Carpinreria, classes from
nearby schools were dismissed to visit
the old burial grounds and to study
the various finds. According to Nc
Donald the cemetery may stretch many
feet out and around the road under
construction, and hundreds Of skele-
tons probably would be found If that
entire area were excavated.
Parts Of skeletons could be seen
sticking out over the edge of the
newly excavated portion of the road.
and these were pulled out of the
ground by members of the steam
shovel crew and tossed in heap.
Sightseers removed the pieces.
Mcdonald owns the property for
many feet into the ocean fronting the
old burial ground. The oil well will
be drilled out in the ocean and within
