Rumors current about the courthouse that the execu- tive axe was about to be wielded generally on the county forces received a de- gree of confirmation this morning from Jack E. Scott, chair- man of the board of county com- missioners. ‘A survey is being conducted ac- cording to Mr. Scott, by H. B, Cham- pion, county auditor, to determine where reduc‘fons in pov-e-~~" may best be made without the sacrifice of efficiency. If this “survey, due to be completed next week, suggests places where s'--!- can be taken up, a reorganization in several depart- ments {s planned. “Beonomy,” as usual is given as the reason for the®prapored cut. — “I’m not going to sign a certifi- cate of indebtedness for one. cent over the legal limit," announced Mr: Scott. 1c will be recalled that there are signed certificates of indebted- fess. prepared totaling $22,500, pay- able to Mr, Scott and to~his col- league, Dr. G. T. Morgan, certifica- thon and payment of which have been held up indefinitely by court injunction and ‘also by the reftsal of Casper banks to honor more of the county's paper. Courthouse gossip -has it that the payroll reduction, if it is made, will be used to satisfy certain animost- ties and grievanees cherished by the two commissioners. The county at- torney's office has been highly un- popular with Scott and Morgan since it launched suits to remove them from office for malfeasance, final judgment on which is still pending in the state supreme court. The county clerk's and county treas- urer’s offices also haye been in more or less disfavor as a result of their refusel to permit Scott and Morgan to rush payment of their bill for trial costs in défiance of the man- date of the county attorney. Further light is thrown on the Scott-Morgan “economy” policy by the fact that the November 1 report of the treasurer showed the county commissioners had overdrawn their Dudget by $1,162, while the county attorney's office ad used up only $10. of its $15 000 allowance. a COAST GUARD PATROL BOAT IS AGROUND BOSTON, Noy, 13.—@)—The coast guard patrol boat CG-185 went aground on the Menemsha break- water enrly today, it was reported in a radlo message recelved today from the coast guard cutter Cum mings.

MUMMY OF KING TUT IS INTACT CAIRO, No’ 13. —P)— The mummy of Tut-Ankh-Amen, with the hands clasped on the breast and a tall golden crown on the head, has been disclosed at last, Says a message from Luxor today. The experts’ examination estab- lished that the Pharoah was only fifteen years old when he died. On the breast were found two large gold scarabs, and strapped to the side two gold-hilted swords and two gold-handled knives. LONDON. Nov. 13.—(#)—The human-shaped coffin encasing the mummy of Tut-Ankh-Amen and the exquisite workmanship of the ornaments found inside the solid gold case have bewildered those persons who have been permitted to see them, The coffin is described by a cor- respondent at Luxor as.an amaz- ing work of art, covered with in- tricaté ornamentations and em- bossed and engraved figures of various divinities. What the goldén case’s value is has not not been estimated, but it is to be the largest piece of precious metal ever uncovered by archoeologists. Ornaments and tollet articles found in the coffin constitute a wonderful, collection. It is thought that the ornarients were a part of the regalia of the young Ph; h,. A mafority of the totlet. articles are of gold and lavishly decorated with precious stones and enamel. An ebony -stituétte of the. Pharoab, ornaniented © with gold, was among the works of art discovered in the coffin. ‘The richness and the lavishness of the latest find is takenas af- fording an indication of the great wealth in Egypt when the young monarch died some 3,000 years ago, and was lald to rest in the Valley of the Kings.

JUSTICE AND “MERCY JOINED, BLAZER FREED Lone Juror Against Acquittal of Aged Physician Who Slew Crippled Daugh- ter When Jury Was Discharged LITTLETON, Colo., Nov. 13.—) —A seeming combination of justice and mercy formed the finale trial here of Dr, Harold of th Blazer when by order of the court the aged as freed of the charge physician of murdering his 94-year-old daugh ter, Hazel, a hopelessly crippled “child woman" yesterday, after a harged upon fall- ure to arrive at a verdict after 14 jury had been ¢ hours.

Mr. Welch sang a spe- cial song which, he said, expre: his own experience: ‘What a Friend I've Found in Jesus. Mr. Harper spoke on the subject: “Keeping Step With God.” ‘The speaker showed that he was fully at home with this subject and brought many practical illustrations to _pound his points home one after another. “You can't walk with God,” he sald, “unless you are going his way—you can't walk with your wife if she is going to church and you down to the river for a Sunday fish, Have you ever hot soldier a ps step w his leader, and the citizen walks cording to his whim, The happiest man in the world is the man who keeps in closest. step with his Fath- er, There is a big difference between the man who does and the man who does not, Abraham walked with God, he kept in step with. Him, even though he went to death’s door with his son, and he did not question nor murmur.” The speaker next took up some of the things of life which get men out of step with God. Continuing, he sald, “We get out of step with God because of the tongue. When a busi- ness flies off the handle, so to speak. how can his employes be expected to consider him a religious man? He doesn’t practice what the preaches. Men get out of step because of what they try to carry, ‘This ts best {ilus- trated by a story that is told of a southern regiment.
