Briton Follows Trail for 22
Years.
Amarillo, Texus.—The trail which
fie has followed for 22 years in quest
of proof of the existence of an np
cient race tc which he believes the
foundations ef the modern Free
masonry may be traced has hrought
Dr. John Winthrop Sargent to the
United States.
He is in Texas to continue his re-
search, which has taken him through
Mexico, Central America and most of
the South American countries.
Doctor Sargent is an explorer and
director of the Dr. W. Il. K. Saver
expedition of the British Royal society
and a nephew of the lute John Singer
Sargent, the painter.
By tracing the culture of this race
through pottery and monument de
signs Doctor Sargent says he nus be-
come convinced that its civilization
was of even a higher order than that
of the ancient Egyptians. He says he
found proof that that race had a
knowledge of irrigation superior to
ghat of modera times.
First evidence of the race in the
United States was found at Three
Rivers, N. M., he says. and the trail
was continued to this vicinity.
The two cultural motifs which he
especially seeks portray a man stand
ing with arms upraised, one arm al
right angles with the other, aad a
deer with three arrows piercing its
breast.
“These two motifs,’
“have a decided hearing on an ancient
society which has come down to the
present and which is found in the Ma.
sonic lodge.”
Doctor Sargent hopes (o go on to
Nicaragua to continue explorations
which were terminated last December
’
he declares.

TAKING TO
WONDERING
By THOMAS ARKLE CLARK
Dean of Men, University of
Hlinois.
HE king was in a sad way, so the
legend ram, as kings have often
been, and are still today, if reports are
to be believed. There was a great oak
tree that grew against the palace wall
that was so big and so thick in its
branches that it shut out all the sun-
light from the king's palace. The
king had offered many, many dollars
to anyone who would cut down the
huge tree and let the sur'ight into the
great castle in which he lived, but no
one had been able to do it, for as soon
as ever one chip of the oak’s trunk
flew off under the stroke of the ax
two more grew in its stead.
And this was not all. The king had
dug a well which was to hold water
for the whole year, but although all
his neighbors had wells, when they
came to sink a well for the king whose

The “calling: card” was a roll of

The name on the doorplate of the

the other tenants as Mr, and Mrs.
“Ike” Behrman. When the police ar-
rived a little later they found the
apartment was empty save for a tiny

Pronunciation Brings
Cycle Thief to Grief
London.—A bit of snappg de-
tective work has just heen ac
complished by a Northampton-
shire policeman, who evidently
also is a student of phonetics.
The “bobby.” on duty near the
village of Towcester, had a
hunch that a man who passed
him, wheeling a bicycle, might
not be the machine's legal
owner,
“Where do you live?” rhe po-
liceman asked.
“Tow-cester,” the man replied
pronouncing the word as it is
spelled. -
“No, you don’t,” the policeman
retorted, and arrested him. At
the police court the next day the
man pleaded guilty to the theft
of the bicycle. The “bobby” ex-
i plained that no resident of Tow-
cester ever referred to the
town's names as other than
“Peaster,” and that it was the
mispronunciation that confirmed
his “hunch.”

Chapman and Anderson once had their
headquarters.
Detectives, after several days of
study, have reconstructed events lead-
ing up to the crime and believe that
it was carried out along the follow-
ing lines:
Will Doyle, the man who got a bul-
let through his heart, was one of a
hundred or more of the master crim-
inal's contact men. His job was to
spot safes to be robbed, houses to be
looted and to establish connections
with fences who would dispose of the
spoils or sell the gems which the lead
er's European agents. smuggled into
this country.
It is believed several of the gang
took part in the daylight robbery of
a nearby theater the day before Doyle
was shot to death, The spotter 18 be-
lieved to have made a mistake and
the band looted the wrong theater, get-
ting away with only a few thousand
dollars where they had planned to
make a big haul.
When Doyle got his share, which
amounted to only $100, he complained
to the payoff man, insisting that he
should have more, and accusing the
leaders of “playing crooked.” There
was an angry exchange of words and
Doyle threatened to get even.
That evening, Doyle, still angry over
the meager profits that came to him
as his share, hroke the most stringent
law of the gang and walked boldly
{ into the home of the master criminal.

in his chief’s face he demanded more
money and threatened to “squeal” if
it were not forthcoming at once
The leader settled the debt as ft
usually is settled in gangland. And
before leaving he pinned the payoff
money to the vietim's body as a warn-
ing to his other followers
Detectives are confident that the
many addresses and messages found in
the apartment will lead to arrests in
the capitals of Europe as well as in
several cities in the United States,

But the king had set his heart upon
having the ouk tree cut down, and up-
on having a well sunk that would fur-
nish his household with abundant wa-
ter, and to anyone who could accom-
plish these two things he agreed to
give the lovely princess for a wife
and half his kingdom. It was a prize
well worth working for, for the king-
dom was a noble one and the princess
was beautiful beyond description.
It .-us Peter and Paul and Jack—
three brothers—who set out in the
hope of finding a way to cut down the
tree and to dig the well.
It was Jack whose curiosity led him
to wondering concerning a sound of
chopping which he heard up the hill-
side as the three brothers were set-
ting out toward the palace, and fol-
lowing the sound he came “upon a
magic ax chopping away at a great
tree, and this he put into his pocket.
And this same curiosity discovered
