Schreiner Auctioneering OFFICE AT RESIDENCE 93-R McHenry, nM,r^r Washington, August 10--Political gauges are attempting to determine the effect the new voting population will have on elections next November. The Census Bureau figures show that 2,200,000 men and women become of age this year. One method which has been employed by both major political parties to get out the votes has been to organize clubs for the youngsters and then endeavor to sell them party policies. Rounding up the votes has been the secret of success for Tammany, The young Republicans and Democrats of today have created a real problem. Experience shows that the newcomers are cynical and not so easily handled as the older folks, and at the slightest provocation may discard party labels. Notification ceremonies for the Republican -nominee for the Presidency will be ushered in by a large garden party on the White. House lawn. •White flannels, flowered tea gowns, the scarlet full-dress uniforms of the Marine Band and the pleasant chatter of the best people of the Republican Party will be the setting for Mr. Hoover's second acceptance speech. It is understood that the speech will not be a long one, possibly not over an hour in duration- Present indications are that the President will not by any means confine himself to a mere elucidation of his party's platform, as Governor Roosevelt did in his first campaign speech. The Chief Executive seems to be in a fighting mood these days and is expected to tackle some of the Rooseveltian views on economic affairs. Cancellation of war debts is scheduled for discussion in the acceptance address and, of course, the scorching question of prohibition. Among the hard-workers in the political vineyards of both parties are to be found a number of "lameducks", or otherwise gentlemen whom the constituency of their respective states did not see fit to return to Washington as Members of Congress. When people meet in Washington the question is asked now and then as to what has happened to some of our lawmakers whose names shone like beacons in the headlines a few years ago. A persual of the government payroll will show that a number of these faded celebrities are tucked away in the various units of the government departments and bureaus as lawyers, economists, etc. They are performing valuable services for Uncle Sam but are deprived of the publicity which attended their utterances in other days. Positions with some of the newly created Federal organizations like the Home Loan Bank Board are the plums that the Senatorial "lame'ducKs" 9f March .4, 1933 are seeking. Jessie Dell, the only lady member of the Civil Service Commission, Is zealously guarding the prerogatives of her department. She has issusd a blast criticising Members of the Senate and House for the practice of providing for the appointment of experts who are not chosen from the eligible list of those who have passed Civil Service examinations. Miss Ddl has directed her caustic comments at Representatives Patterson of Alabama and Reed of New York, who spoke disparagingly of the Civil Service Commission while a bill was under discussion during the recent session of Congress. During the last session of Congress a bill was enacted into law authorising the Park and Planning Com mission, which has charge of the new government building projects in Washington, to employ experts, such as architects, engineers, artists, landscape architects and others by contract without reference to the Civil Service requirements. Miss Dell is objecting strenuously to the new law and wants eligibles on the Civil Service rolls who can qualify for these positions to be given first choice. wore £• A. P.

Solon Mills, DL Reference Past Sales SATISFACTION GUARANTEED "Hot" Ice Is Produced ' by Harvard Professor Cambridge, Mass.--Ice hot enough to burn one severely has been produced by Prof. P. W. Bridgman of Harvard university. High pressures are used to produce hot ice. Ice which melts at four degrees below zero is obtained at 30,000 pounds pressure and at 300,000 pounds pressure water remains solid at 180 degrees Fahrenheit. Professor Bridgman's method of producing high pressure Is described by him as "simple." Here It Is: "Take a large thick block of steel, bore a hole in It and put liquid into the hole. Then put into the top of the hole a plug which will not leak, and push on the plug. A limit of the high pressure obtainable is set by two things: The leaking of the plug and the yielding of the steel container." In a few cases, pressures up to 000,- 000 pounds have been reached. The danger of the process Is seen by the fact that it has been found necessary to set some pieces of apparatus behind boiler plpte to protect the operators, for %uch extreme pressures are 10 to 20 times those In long-range guns.

Our Expert Thinks Ancient / " Papyri May Alter Bible London.--Sitting In a fireproof room guarded with a steel door and each window protected by Iron bars, Chester Beatty, American collector, showed a number of glass frames containing papyri, said to constitute the oldest biblical manuscript In the jrorljl Considerable comment was caused la scholastic circles by the recent announcement that Beatty had succeeded In finding a series of papyri relating to the Bible and said to be two hundred years older than anything else of the sort yet discovered. Whether the translation of the papyri now being prepared by Sir Frederick Kenyon, formerly curator of the British Museum, and other experts, will reveal new versions of biblical subjects or not It is too early to tell, explained Beatty. "I do know already," he continued, "that a number of minor differences have been noted, but I doubt whether they will make it necessary to do more than alter words In the Bible. I should be surprised If there were any important a l t e r a t i o n s . " . / • -a- A ALJCiij o o • TDiprc of the 1 ftloCiO By ElllTHA L. WATSON The Zani In that shadowy past which Is so long ago that only legend reminds us that it was at all, an Indian people came from the northward and settled in the Zuni valley. Later, from the West came another people, and these joined the first settlers. This ri the beginning the Zunl tribe, which la one of the most' Interesting tribes of the Pueblos, At the dawn of their recorded hlatory, they were living In seven cities, which were known of as far «outh as Mexico. Perhaps Indian traders, Journeying to far places with the products of their villages to exchange for the shell* of the coast' or the parrot feathers of the South, told of their seven cities, and, as has always been the custom of travelers, exaggerated a little. At any rate, these vague rumors reached the ears of Fray Marcos de Nixa, who made his famous exploration trip In 1539. He listened to all that the Indians along the way could tell him about "Cibola" (Zunl), and finally saw one of the vilages from a neighboring hill, but Instead of entering the settlement, where he might have been disabused of his notions, be returned to Mexico with a great narrative of the magnificent "Kingdom of Cibola." The Indians along the way had assured him that this was a wealthy country, and that its seven cities were filled with gold and precious stones. Hence, Coronado, the next year started North to explore this unknown land of which so many glowing tales trere told. The Pueblos had a way of sending messages by fleet runners, whose speed and endurance were the wonder of the Spaniards. News reached the first Zuni city (Hawikuh), of the coining of these strangers from the South, and of their warlike tendencies, and upon its receipt the Zunians became active, with the result that after ptormlhg the town, the Spaniards found that women and children, and most of the movables in the place, had been taken away. The mesa stronghold of Taalyalone (Corn Mountain or Thunder Mountain, as it is variously known), which commands the Zuni country, was their refuge, and the warriors who had defended Hawikuh fled there also, leaving a deserted and empty pueblo to the disappointed Invaders. Coronado found that the "KIngdofr of Cibola" was a small country containing seven pueblos, all within four leagues, the largest of which contained 500 houses, and that the immense treasure of rumor was a sorry myth. In fact, he wrote that Fray Marcos bad "said the troth to nothing that be reported." Zunl at this time must have been at its zenith. There are no records of more than the seven pueblos, and history shows that these dropped Into oblivion one by one, until six of them have become uninhabited ruins. Forty years after Coronado's disappointment, Chamuscado visited the tribe, and in 1583 Espejo went to Zuni. He reported that he found there some of the Mexican Indians who had been with Coronado, and that there were but six cities, so that evidently one had been abandoned since Coronado's time. Three Spanish priests established a mission at Hawikuh in 1629, and this was the first mission in the "province of Cibola," although one bad been attempted previously. In 1022, the Indians killed two priests, one who had been sent to them, and one who was passing through Hawikuh on his way to another tribe. Fearful of consequences, the Zuni again fled to Taalyalone, their refuge in all troubles, and lived there for three years. In 1670, an enemy tribe raided the village of Hawikuh, burned the church and killed the missionary. This town was probably not reoccupled after the raid, and by the time of the Pueblo rebellion of 1680, the Zuni were living in three towns, two others beside Hawikuh having been deserted. The rebellion of 1680 was participated In by almost all the Pueblos, the day being set and plans made, and the news spread by runnels. The Zunl were as active as the rest, and after killing the missionary who remained among them, they once more hurried to Taalyalone, and made It their home for twelve years, until Diego de Vargas reconquered the country in 1692. After this, Zuni was one city. It was rebuilt on the ruins of Halona, on the Zunl river, one of the original Seven Cities of Cibola. Even yet, there was unrest among them. Once more a missionary was killed, and once more the mesa stronghold was their refuge. However, peace was finally concluded, and from 1713 on there was not much to record In the history of Zunl. For some time It was entirely abandoned by the white people, and became a thoroughly Indian town again, but in later years the United States government established a school and built extensive irrigation works, so that the Indians began to become educated to the white man's ways of peace.
