II ONDON, May 18.--London is
l. waiting to give Texas Guinan
a great big hand--but it may also
be firm hand.
This wide-aWake metropolis, in
which merchants clamp iron
shutters on their show windows at
6. m. and traffic stops about mid
night, feels offended at the in
situation that it must import its
night-life from New York.
La Guinan proposes to come
here in midsummer after she
has given Paris a new thrill.
She intends to open a night
club complete with Harry Pilcer,
thirty genuine Guinan girls, a
band, two comics, maitre d hotel,
and her white horse.
And incidentally, she promises q
new brand Of revelry.
z n
DARIs expects Texas about
L May 80. Her sojourn there
depcads largely upon how long
Paris can stand the pace.
AS soon as the capital begins TO
weaken and the suckers" start
to thin out, the Guinan will pilot
her troupe toward London.
From present indications it
hardly would be surprising if she
found the upright inhabitants Of
this moral nation massed at the
channel ports to repel her inva-
sion.

Curiosity Leads to Capture

Robert Prather, %. of BAT South

suspect.
Banditry hearing of Ben King,

under way in the court of Municipal
Judge. William H. Sheaffer, and
George Butcher. R. r. 10, Box 351,
the state star witness was en- route

Butcher was standing near the
dry Gods store of Jacob Yarvowitz,
2644 North Harding street, last
Monday afternoon, when Negro
and white man robbed the proprie-
tor of $50. He had identified King
previously.
AS Butcher prepared to step into
the court, he spied Prather. He
called detectives and told them the
man was the Negroes companion
on the robbery. Prather was ar
rested by detective Tom Barnaby
and denied vehemently that he was
involved, but could not give author
tiles satisfactory explanation for his
presence near the court.
After the arrest, Butcher re-
iterated his identification of
Prather. Yarowvitz said he "WaS

FIND TRACE OF
EARLIEST TRIBE
IN EVERGLADES
Elaborate EarthWorkS Are
Discovered by u. S.
Official.

By Science seyrtoe
WASHINGTON. May l8.-First
traces Of the unknown prehistoric
Indians who lived in the Everglades
have been discovered by Matthew
w. Stirling. chief Of the bureau Of
American ethnology. Stirling has
returned from several months of
archaeological exploration in florida.
On she very edge Of the ever
elades, near Lake Okechobee, Stir
ling encountered a great plan Of
earthworks elaborately laid out in
entertainments and mounds, and
covering an area a mile square.
So large and conspicuous are
these earthWorks, Stirling said, that
it is surprising that no previous
explorer ever has reported their ex-
istence or their significance. The
nearest approach to anything like
them are the famous Fl. Ancient
earthWorks in Ohio, which also we're
made by prehistoric moundbuuding
Indian tribes.
Excavation Planned
The most prominent feature Of
the Everglades site is a hat-topped
rectangle Of earth built 30 feet high
and $50 feet long. This apparently
was the focusing point Of atten-
ton for whatever ceremonies we're
held at the site. Earthen embank-
ments inclose q court in front Of
this high place. Back Of 1t semi
circular bank Of earth was raised.
This is only small portion Of the
earthWorks. A curious formation
consisting Of a large semi-circular
bank extends in front Of the high
place and its court. And out from
the semi circle start a number OF
parallel lines Of banks with circular
mounds at the ends. Within the
great semi circle is a platform OF
earth six feet high and quarter
of a mile long.
Excavations into this important
site will be made next season, Mr..
Stirling said. In his exploration
visit. he found potsherds on the
edge of the site. showing that the
inhabitants Of the place were ia
miliar with pottery. These Indians
are the people who inhabited the
glades before the Seminoles came
there from farther north in COM
paratively late times.
Leave Huge Shell
Excavation of a large burial
mound made of sand was another
achievement of the expedition. This
mound, south of Key Marco, con-
tanned $50 burials of Calusa IN
dams, together with their posses
sions.
The stone age Of prehistoric
America was almost the shell age
in this region, for the Indians had
shell hoes and axes, shell cups and
ornaments. Stone was scarce,
though a few stone implements
brought in by traders from farther
north were had.
1t is Strings view that this
mound was the burial place Of the
Indians who left the biggest shell
heap in the United States" famous
in Florida. The shell heap, rep
resenting the refuse of some very
large settlement, is two miles from
the burial mound.

Women in Cities, as Usual

In the cities however, the women,
as usual, outnumber the men, 100
to 967. While in the rural districts
there are 1895 men to each 100
women. Here again the number of
divorced persons has doubled in ten
years.
These indications that there is
no truth in the tradition that the
boys go off to the cities while the
girls stay on the. farm to live out a
quiet home life, are borne out even
by Maine and Connecticut. In
Maine, there are 1911 men to 100

in the cities.

WOMEN ARE IN
The CITIES AND
MEN ON FARMS
That's What Census Report
Shows: Divorces Are
Going Up.
BY HERBERT LITTLE
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, May 18.-Women
who want TO get married should go
to the farms, and men looking for
spouses should go to the cities.
Detailed census reports compiled
for eighteen states scattered over
the union show that in proportion
to the number Of men, women are
plentiful in cities and scarce in ru-
raj territory.
The reports show also that in
the western states, once FREEDOM
inently male to an extent where a
little school teacher had the coun-
tryside at her feet, the sexes in re-
cent decades are more nearly even
in numbers.
Trend Is Startling
Trends somewhat startling appear
from some of the figures. The num-
Der of divorced women is listed as
twice that Of divorced men in sew
eral stateS-but indicating merely
that a divorced woman has less
chance, or desire, to renarry, than
does a divorced man.
Nebraska had 1852 males per 100
females last year, compared with a
ratio of 1112 to 100 twenty years
before Even in this western state,
however, the women outnumbered
the men in the cities, where the ra-
ito was 96.3 males to 100 females.
The city development is recent, as
shown by Nebraska figures of 1910,
when the urban population was
made up of 1868 males to 100 fe-
males. In the country there are
10 men to 100 women.
Nebraska in the last decade, reg
istered an increase Of nearly 2 per
cent in the percentage of its mar
ried population. Divorced women
increased from 1858 to 6,072, and
divorced men from 1921 to 5,645.
In Maryland, with an entirely diff
ferent makeup, the relative number
of women also has increased. In
1910 they outnumbered men, 100 to
$50; now the men are more numer-
Gus, 1913 to 100.
