SVJ GEORGE KASS IDEA GF KILLING OPPONENTS OLD Governments Were Maintained in That Manner in Ancient Times, Says Professor. THINGS THAT WERE FOUND Excavations in Egypt Disclose Some Interesting Information Regarding the System of Government of Egyptians. London. —The idea of maintaining a government by killing off the members of the opposition is very ancient, ac cording to Hinders Petrie, the learned professor of Egyptology at University college here. In an illustrated lecture at the college recently Professor Pe trie described the latest excavations at Abydos and elsewhere in Egypt. Ancient Tomb Explored. He described the discovery of some tombs of the time of the First Dynasty. These were made in rows some 300 feet long and were covered by six feet of sand and rubbish. Very little stone work was found, owing to the plunder ing that had gone on in the past, but a number of fine alabaster jars were unearthed. There were also found 60 or 70 skeletons and 80 skulls. In most cases the body had been buried with tiie knees drawn up to the chest, and in the grave there had been placed small jars containing grains of wheat for the sustenance of the dead. Among the royal tombs, said the lec turer, there was evidence that many courtiers had been killed off at one time on the death of the king. This was an excellent system of preventing unstable government, for by making sure of the safety of the king states men made sure of their own. The result was that the kings had very long reigns indeed. The courtiers who were killed off were stunned by a blow from a sandbag and then bulled. One or two of the victims, it appeared, had not been very dexterously dealt with, for the position of their unearthed skeletons strongly suggested that they had struggled to get out of their graves after burial. Some Finely-Carved Lions. Among other discoveries' were some finely-carved ivory lions, used as pieces in a game played on a circular board, a cauib <if ivorii nmc* aouer tools. THE TRIBUNE-NEWS.

It is receiving serious consideration for various other purposes, too, including that of a location for anew vocational training school to be built by the Veterans’ bureau.

The Nash ville Industrial corporation, composed of people in the city who wished to invest in the project, bought the plant November 22, 1920. Since then four new industries, a pulp and paper plant, a motor and body works, & cement factory and a starch and sirup plant, have been es tablished at Old Hickory. Many of the residences and apart ments are in use either by those who live there permanently or by others who rent them as summer homes. * v SAILOR HAS ENOUGH Quits His Job Cuddling Boa Con strictors on Ship.
