BARfcS MASSACRE OF OLD ALASKAN RACE Scientist* Find Skelet6ii« on Kodiak Island. Washington.--Evidence of a prehlstorio "massacre" on desolate Kodiak Island, Alaska, at a time when it was inhabited by an unknown race of advanced culture, was uncovered this summer by Dr. Ales Hrdlicka, curator of physical anthropology of the Smithsonian institution, who has Just returned to Washington. This was the sixth expedition of Doctor HrdliAa to Alaska, and the third summer he has conducted extensive excavations on this site, which in some respects probably represents the highest aboriginal art in North America north of Mexico, although there is as yet practically no clew to the exact identity of the people who developed It or brought It from Asia. "NMt Burials" Puzzle. In past years Doctor Hrdlicka has been puzzled by what he terms "nest burials," where a number of skeletons would be found together, of all ages and both sexes and without any of the customary mortuary offerings which the ancient people ordinarily placed in graves. : - The clew1 came with the discovery that many of the skeletons had cracked Skulls arid- other evidences of combat. This 19 a strong indication that they were not wiped out by some epidemic and Justifies a picture of a village massacre from which h few escaped, to return later and "'bury their dead in heaps. Assisted by five volunteer college students, Doctor Hrdlicka was able to make substantial progress this 4nbier in uncovering the remains of the old settlement--apparently the "metropolis" of the bay on which it is located in the days when the island was an important center of population. The site rests on glacial till and In places on a peculiar..geologic formation called by Doctor Hrdlicka "butter earth," a gritless, yellow „clay, identified- hy geologists as representing old metamorphosed volcanic ash. Had Higher Culture. Thefre were three stages bf settlement. The first and second, by far the longest, were those of the uifknown people who had a considerably higher culture than their successors. They show slight affinities with the Eskimo but can hSrffly be considered as of the same strain. After them came the Konlags, who were identical with the Aleuts of today. The unknown people were master craftsmen, especially in the making of beautiful stone lamps and in the carving of ivory. The latter art they carried to the extent of carving Individual portraits. Doctor Hrdlicka added extensively to his collection of skeleton remains and artifacts gathered there in other years; besides what was sent previously there are more than forty boxes of material on the way to the Institution. But, he reports, one of the most important results of the excavations this summer was the great family difference found In the many ancient households studied. All partook of a common culture, yet each family group had its own variation. Some were good lamp carvers, others specialized in other artifacts. The work furnishes a potent illustration of the fallacy of considering a prehistoric culture as almost Invariable from individual to Individual, or of Judging of the whole culture of a people from a localised sample. Ownership of Cape Cod Beach Is Being Disputed • Boston.--Who owns five miles of fine beach on Cape Cod bay, the town of Barnstable or private claimants? The Land court is struggling with the problem. It is an issue because the full set of necessary documents for the establishment of legal rights has been lacking for. a couple of centuries. The Plymouth gi«nt for the setting apart of the town has been several times the object of unsuccessful search. The county registry of deeds had burned in 1827 and 97 volumes ofwdeeds were destroyed. There were records of a "sceem" for the division of the town lands and for the reservation of the beach for "the benefit of the- flsherie," but the chain of evidence has never been complete. Never, that is, unless within a few months a discovery has been made which fills the gap. The Plymouth court acts contained no record of the original grant/but the latest Investigators explored the Plymouth colony record of deeds and there found the "confirmation degd" of 1699. Now the town hopefully awaits the decision of the court America's Sweet Tooth Booms Chocolate Drops Reading, Pa.--Emerging from the red, America has gone definitely chocolate. This color scheme Is radiating from here in delicious, rich brown waves designated to create 328,700,000 separate and distinct tltillations of the American palate. These conclusions were based on recent exhaustive re- Searches following the arrival at a candy plant of 22 freight cars loaded with cartons. They are to be filled with chocolate drops and sent out during the month to satisfy the American sweet tooth. ' Experts figured out that there are 198,000 cartons in the shipment. One hundred and ninety-eight thousand cartons represent 32Q,700,000 chocolate drops; At the rate of onl> one titillatlon per chocolate drop this accounts for the 526,700,000 tltillations aforementioned.

The room was dismal, but I felt fortunate that I could occupy it alone." related Edward G., Robinson, the bad man of the films. "During the night a queer, cold tingling sensation pervaded my body. There were slight noises In the room, and I attuned iny ears to catch what they were. \ "This was not the sound of a person moving or breathing. It seemed at first that there were stifled groans, hut these subsided and gave way to a sort of gurgling rattle which came inter mittently,, The hair at the back of my neck bristled and burned. n "About two minute^ later this queer rattle ertded with what sounded like a gasp of breath and one louder rattle. It seemed to be right close to me, and yet from fat5 away. The last rattle did not, give me any better clue, hut a new sound had appeared which Immediately" followed on the last. ^."fcwM'a steady drip,-drip, drip, like a ...faucet- dripping into A pan of water. "The continual drip, drip, drip persisted until I thought It would drive me out of my mind. It seemed louder than the other noises. "Fear overcame me, and as.I could not sleep any longer I decided to Investigate. - "My clothes were thrown over the chair near the dresser, and I decided to find a match in my trousers pocket to light the gas and dispel once for all this ghastly experience. Accordingly, I began to crawl gingerly out of bed, but no sooner did one foot touch the floor than it landed in a small puddle of warui liquid. Hurriedly,' I drew my foot bac,k and huddled myself under the covers. ^ "It" could not have been water, f#r It seemed to my then sensitive touch to be of a little (heavier consistency, and its warmth "was unnatural. Instinctively, I felt something supernatural in It, but my rational mind refused "to" accept it. "I was too frightened to get -out of bed now to search fo^matches and the gas jet, but I knew "where the pool was into which I heard the drip, drip, dripping of whatever it was. With upturnedT palm, 1 held .my hand over the place. Nothing- came from the celling, but still the drip, drip,-drip kept on. 1 "For more than an hour this continued, and then the drops seetn&d to fall seldom, until, at last, they ceased entirely. Sleep came welcome-^ ly fo my almost shattered nerves. "When I awoke my first thought was of my night's experience. Hastily I looked at the floor where my foot had encountered the warm liquid Into which something had dripped for more than an hour, but to my relief the faded carpet was clear and dry. "Laughing at what 1 now considered a silly nightmare, I slid out of bed and prepared to dress. But my sheepish smile froze on my face when I saw the foot that bad stepped out of the bed during the night. "It was red frith blood, which was now dried by the warmth under the covers. "Searching for a wound which mighthave caused It, I could only discover that the skin on my foot wa8 as clear and unscarred as It was the day before, "Out of the corner of my eye I could see the hotel owner studying me while I ate breakfast downstairs. "The landlord put on a furtive air, as though he wanted no one to hear him, as he approached me, and told me of an event which happened some ten years before. "It appears that a man who was later unidentified had passed through the town and taken a night's lodging In that same room in which I. had Just had my strange experience. No sooner had he gone up to bed thus another traveler entered and was given the roojn adjoining. "There was no sound of any kind during the night, but the following morning the landlord discovered that the second traveler had departed hurr rledly and his bed had not been slept In. It seamed very unusual, as there was no means of transportation out of town during the night. "The proprietor's curiosity was aroused: he knocked on the door of the first traveler, and when he received no answer boldly opened It and entered. "The man was sprawled across the bed In his night clothes. His head hung over the side of the bed toward the floor, with his sightless eyes looking at the ceiling. It was therefore pialil to see that the man's throat had been slashed by a sharp knife or a razor and through the night his life's nloo<j had dripj>ed onto the carpet near the edge of the bed." - Mr. and Mr§.

Congressmen who preferred Vinson bill looked askance at the pos-? sibility that the Patman plan of issuing new currency to pay the bonus might result in disastrous inflation. The Vinson bill differed in that the method of providing the required funds was to be left to the Treasury department. "However, a goodly number of those who preferred the Vinson bill decided to support the Patman bill* after all efforts in behalf of the former failed and the Patman bill re- Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Esping spe'nt mained the only measure on which the week-end and Monday at the i votes favoring immediate payment of home of Mr. and Mrs. LaDoyt Mat- the bonus could be cast in the final thews at Rorest Park.

Included in this group were all ' but one of the Illinois Republican members. Early acti'on by the Senate is'anticipated and the outcome is* a matter for conjecture.
