The latest discovery of the Swedish experts came somewhat as n surprise when, after having explored a tomb as big as a house and finding nothing of unusual interest, they turned to a tomb lesji than five feet wide. This proved to be a treasure trove, dnting about 1150 B. C.,‘ in the Mycenaean, or pre-Hellenic per iod. It contained numerous earthen ware vases of rare design and decoration, eight beautiful bronze urns and other vessels, of which one was 20 inches high. One of the smaller bronze urns contained four necklaces of gold and lirides cent glass beads, and curiously enough the strings were suffi ciently well preserved to show the arrangement of the beads, so that the necklaces' can now be restored to their exalt appearance 3,000 years ago. The necklaces contain ed 660 beads and other ornaments, of which 250 were of gold. Another U. S. Oil Deal, But It’s Not A Scandal BY HARRY B. HUNT WASHINGTON,—Oil is ached uled to keep thing, hot in govern ment circles here in Washington this winter. No, we're not hinting at another oil scandal. Although $125,000 la involved, it will bo dispensed on regulation government vouchers, not passed out In black suitcases. And the heat that is to result Is to bo measured In thermal units, not In angry words, chargea and counter-charges and flaming pas sions. »gh hasn't yet obtained rtpoueasion of tho oil reurvea bartered away by the late Secratary Fall, and actual dollars and cants will have to be paid out to obtain tho petro leum needed, Uncle Sam has de cided to install two* gnat oil burning heating plants to provide warmth in some 14 of tho build ings his employes occupy here in the capital. new degree of co-operation between various branches of tho government is be ing exhibited in the installation and plan of operation of these plants. The Shipping Board, whose of fices will be among those heated, has offerfd to provide a concrete tanker for etoring a supply of fuel here in Washington. Tho Navy Department will chip In by towing this vessel-from Feniaco le, Fla., where ahe ndw lies.

F.QDvnham, The Rooceveltian tradition is to be carried over / into thi- year's preaidential campaign, via the K-rsonality of “Hell an' Marla” Dawes. Perhaps wa shouldn’t hart put it that way, since the vice presi dential running mete of President Coolidge has indicated that he wiahea to shed hla picturesque sobriquet for a mors sober one, better fitting thd dignity of a pos sible vice president. Anyway, ,Dawes end hia rambuctious per sonality are to be painted as of the same general character of those vigorous, strenuous attrib utes which so endeared “T. R,” to the American people. 10 "politician with a punch," however, who is most under dis cussion in Washington these days, is none other than 8enator Jo Robinson of Arkansas. Robinson jumped right into the renter of the capital's tea-table conversations the other day when, in an altercation over golf eti quette, he swung with hi, fist in stead of hia mid-iron and knocked Dr. James Mitchell for a dead One. No one claima it was a dub stroke, but Mitchell claims the senator scored on a foul and pro tested to the club management, exhibiting a black aye as Exhibit The discussions that resulted haven’t bean equaled in the ex- lusive Chevy Chase Club circles "into Taft tried golf as a weight- reducer.

GENERAL IUID CONTINUES RULING STRIA FDR FRANCE BEIRUT, SyrU.—The recent re turn. of General Weygand, the French high commissioner for Syria, ha3 had at least the effect of silencing the persistent rumors that he was not returning to his lost after going to France on leave. Reports that he would resign immediately he reached Paris were set afloat before General Wfeygand turned his back to Syria. It was even asserted that on reaching Paris he informed Poin care that he would not return to Syria except at the head of sev eral divisions of troopg with which to put down the incursions of Turkish bandits to the north, and | maintain order within Syria proper. Although hsi plans a known, it is safe to assume that General Weygand will make no drastic changes in the French ad ministration. The French system of governing Syria has been, and will probably continue, one of conferring make-believe independ ence on the governed. The French I have set *p a native government with titles of independence for high officials. * There is, for in stance, a native “President of the Syrian Confederation” and a gov ernor of Damascus. Actually, these officials are without pwoer, all the authority being letf in the hands of the French. The “Pres ident of the Syrian Confederation” may not sign an administrative order of any kind without approv al, of the French high commis sioner. Good Old Days! PIANO WITH OUTER Courts Dispose Quietly of Those Who Raise ‘Cain’ T wnoKaia LONDON.—In the IN BRUNSWICK BRUNSWICK, Germany—The quarter tone piano Is an estab. Ushed fact. The Inventor has personally demonstrated It to large number of musical critics who came to Brunswick from al over Germany. At the present etate of cultivA' tlon of the human ear, however the critics believe It won't do tc mix too many quarter tones with the half and whole notes to which th ear la accustomed. Their present &dvlc e to composers Is to reserve the quarter notes foi special passage* In which melan choly strains ar to be given ex presilon. One techincal difficulty of the In. vention I* that of keeping so min utely adjusted an apparatus In tune. Every player of the piano knows that when an ordinary pi has been treated to a numbet of fortissimos ,the Instrument i needs tuning. If this be true of whole^nd-half ton* pianos* the critics ask, what will happen to an Instrument adjusted on quartet tonea? And whers can piano tun ers be found who can distinguish between Intervale of only a quartet of a note? Governor Walker Approves Mercer Memorial Scheme ATLANTA—Governor 'Qllfford Walker's approval of the Ibrcei Alumni War Memorial Program ha* been voiced In a letter writ ten by the Georgia Governor to George H.

Few people climbing them are aware that the huge pillars also contain specially built secret stairways for bringing down people who make them selves objectionable in court. They have been used on various occas ions. Once when a man flourished a revolver in court reinforcements were hurried up by the spiral stairway and the man brought down in the «ame way. On other occasions disturbers who chained themselves to the gallery have been brought down quietly by the tecret way.

The experts hold that suitable penal measures should be framed tc prevent the fraudulent or mis taking us* of trade designations other than trademarks, such ar names, styles of firms; headings of printed matter, emblems, etc. They believe that such measures should apply not only to the repro. ductlon of designations or pictorial representations, or both, but also to colorable Imitations of the same ns well h« to false indications of origin or of Identity of the pro ducer. manufacturer or merchant whenever such practices- might cause cqnfuaion aa to the origin of the gdoda In question.
