AVENUE MAY GET HIGH-POWER LIGHTS 1,500-Candlepower Design Inspected by Arts Com- mission. Pennsylvania avenue, in the near future, may have 1,500-candlepower twin-light lamp posts, the latest de- velopment in boulevard illuminations, almost four times as powerful as the present 400 candlepower lights, as a re- sult of an inspection of designs for new lamp posts and lights by the Fine Arts Commission, at the District Building vesterday. The design has been the of the twin-light post subject of study several months, with a view to obtaining bet- ter light for the broad streets, ave- nues and plazas. As far as possible, the new lights follow the_ Millet de- sign, which are now being used. Three other types of lamps for local high- ways also were inspected.

SLAYER OF FIVE MEN OFTEN PHOTOGRAPHED Confessed Murderer Harangues Crowd at Hanging for 30 Minutes. By the Associated Press, VILLE PLATTE, zebe Vidrine, years old, con- sed slayer of five men, went calm- Iy to his death on the scaffold at 12:42 o'clock yesterday for the murder on May 19 last of Robert Leo Wiggine yeai-old son of a former sheriff f Evangeline Parish, his fifth vic- tim. He was pronounced dead at 1:05 p.m Accompanied by a priest and sev- eral deputies, Vidrine began his death march a few minutes after noon from his cell in the angeline Parish Jail to an inclosure erected in the jail yard. At the foot of the scaffold | he stopped to have his photograph taken and after mounting the struc- ture he spoke for half an hour, ad- monishing his hearers not to gamble or drink whisky. At no time did he show signs of nervousness. After the noose had been placed around the condemned man’s neck, he requested Sheriff Charles Pucheu that another picture be taken of him. This was done. The black cap then was quickly adjusted and the sheriff sprang the trap. Earlier in the da; La. August 9.— at the request ofeVidrine his photograph was taken while seated on the casket which later was to contain his body. Although it had been announced that Vidrine's body would be dis- played on the courthouse square in fulfillment of a wish of the con- demned man, Sheriff Pucheu changed his plans at the request of Vidrine's mother and it was taken immediately 10 his former home several miles in the country. SEWER BLAST HURLS POST THROUGH WINDOW Paint Sparrows Color of Canaries To Sell on Liners By the Associated Press, FUNCHALL, Madeira, July 28.— Canary birds are much sought by tourists on the various liners which stop at this crossroads of the ocean. Bird dealers rush to greet incoming steamers and do a thriving business. But tourists recently have tound that many of the canaries purchased here began after a few days to fade. They were sparrows which had been painted a bright yellow. Disgusted purchasers reported the frauds to their consuls in Funchal and crews of the passenger steamers now warn passengers to look out for hand- made canaries. HUGE LIUORBL CONERONTS JPAN Billion Yen Annual Cost of Sake and Other Intoxi- cating Drinks. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright. 1924. TOKIO, August 9.—The annual ex- penditurt for saks and other intox- icating beverages in Japan is more than one billion yen. This repre- sents three-fourths of the total bud- get of the imperiol government of ,347,000,000 yen and is twice the 500,000,000 yen loan recently floated in America and England and several times the annual expenditure for pub- lic education, which is suffering badly for lack of sufficient funds. These facts were set forth in the official report of the National Tem- perance League of Japan at the 50th annual convention recently held at Okayama. Attending the sessions were 118 delegates representing the 25,000 members of the 24 dry organi- zations throughout the empire. Fight To De Continued. While it is realized by the league that Japan is not ready for prohibi- tion, the members are determined to continue their fight until victory is finally achieved. Declaring for com- plete_elimination of the liquor traf- fic, the league adopted as i imme- diate program the following: A bill in the diet to extehd the juvenile prohibition law to include practically all students and men in the military and naval services by raising the age of those to whom it applies from 20 to 25 years. The introduction of scientific teach- ing on the physiological effects of alcohol and tobacco into the text- books of all primary and middle schools. _ Discontinuance of the sale of liquor to men in the military service. Abolition of the sale of liquor on ilway trains and all railway prop- An appeal to the ministers of edu- cation and home affairs to urge ab- stinence from the use of alcoholic drink by all educational and re- ligious workers and policemen. In School and Ofice. The prohibition of the use of alco- bolic beverages in all schools and government offices. The limitation of liquor advertising. More rigid enforcement of the pres- ent juvenile prohibition law. An educational temperance cam- palgn under the auspices of the so- cial welfare department of the gov- ernment. The establishment of temperance assembly halls and dancing rooms throughout the empire. Division of the country into sev- eral districts, uniting a number of temperance societies into one district union to secure closer co-operation and efficiency in their activities. NEW ZEALAND MAKES RACES PONDEROUS ‘White, Yellow and Brown MNen Show Same Tendency as Maoris. Comparatively empty New Zealand, hoping that her population may re- main _white, taxes the incoming Asiatic $500 and requires him to pass a simple literary test. This has not prevented numbers of exceedingly enterprising Chinese from entering that little paradise, where they become highly industrious and progressive citizens. Children born of Chinese parents, in contrast with their Anglo-Saxon fel- low-scholars in state schools, are “without” nerves—they show no strain, are remarkably free from “crankiness,” are invariably happy and always eminently teachable. Nearly always full-blooded Chinese born in New Zealand are children of coolie parents, and it is therefore highly remarkable that in a genera- tion they should physically differ from their parents. Thus the child of.a tiny Chinese mother and her small husband (prob- ably under 144 pounds in weight) may produce sons who' in maturity may Gas Explodes and Iron Pipe of Light Stand Shatters Plate Glass. Damage amounting to more than £200 resulted early last night when n explosion of sewer gas blew a Dicce of the base of an electric light nole 30 feet through a big plate glass window of the book store of A. R. Womrath, Inc., 607 Thirteenth street. A piece of iron weighing 10 pounds was blown across the sidewalk of Thirteenth street, through the win- dow of the store, completely shatter- ing the glass, and just missing a passerby. Books ‘and stock in the window of the store suffered damage of about exceed 320 pounds in weight. Limited numbers of New Zealand- born Chinese are hardly distinguish- able (to a stranger) from Maoris, al- though it is offensive to either race to be so mistaken one for the other. It is true that.the most persistent type of white man born in New Zea- land is much bulkier- than his father, often abnormally thick in the legsand certainly not constitutionally so strong as his parents. He tends physically to the Maori type already; siow and ponderous, un- less excited, and then showing less endurance than white peoples of Eu- rope or America. One supposes the same conditions which produce bulk in Maoris and the progeny of transplanted Anglo-Sax- ons_produce also avoirdupois in New $50 while the glass, which is covered by insurance, will cost about $150. NAPOLEON STORY HOAX. PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia, August 9. ~—Police investigation has shown, the uthorities declare, that the, recent story of the discovery of a quantity ¥ Napoleonic relics here was an Jaborate Hoax perpetrated by Leo- 30ld Bassano, an eccentric member 3¢ the younger branch of the family descended from the Duke Bassano, ¥ho was Napoleon's foreign minister ind confidant. Bassano, who is a Czechoslavian Internal revenue employe, admits, the Yolice say, that he invented the story to mystify the newspapers and cer- tain politicians. In doing so he in- cidentally hoodwinked the French consul at Brunn, who reported at length on the “discovery” of the relics to his gevernment, although he had not seen a single one of the alleged documents, Bassano declining to give the name of the bank whese he sald they were stored. Trail Stolen Money Orders. Special Dispateh to The Star. RICHMOND, Va., August 9.—Money orders stolen from the post office at Valier, 111, July 11, are being cashed in this section. A ‘tourist stopped a local hotel and cashed one of the money orders for $50.

Secretary Weeks has informed the Commissioners of the District of Co- lumbia and the governors of all the states and territories that the act of Congress providing for an equitable distribution of captured war devices and trophies falled to appropriate the funds necessary to put its provisions into effect. “Hence,” he fays, “no definite time for the distrfbution of the trophies can be set.” The law provides for the distribu- tion among the state, territories and the District of Columbia of all the surplus captured war devices and trophies in the possession of the War Department, on the basis of the num- ber of men serving in the World War from the respective sections. Under the allotments made on that basis, the District of Columbia is en- titled to nine large guns and car- riages, 44 Maxim Machine guns, 262 Mauser magazine rifles, 262 bayonets, 71 sabers, ard a small assortment of other ordnance. The heavy ordnance consists of 5 minnewerfers with their carriages, one gun being 250 mm., an- other 170 mm., another 77 mm., and two 76 mm. and in addition, one light fleld gun and carriage, one 100 mm. howitzer and carriage, one 105 mm. howitzer and carriage and one 150 mm. mortar and carriage. Under the law, the District Com- missioners may use these guns and other trophies. when received from the War Department, for monumental purpose in the local parks or ceme- teries and donate those thev do not require to local patriotic organiza- tions. possatigh e, WOMAN’S RELIEF CORPS SENDING PARLEY GROUP President Shaw Heading Delega- tion Leaving Tomorrow for Boston.

He doesn't always get them answered, but that doesn't discourage him in the least. How- ever, the questions hc asked Mrs. Boomer the Nighthawk he did get answered, and he learned some sur- prising things. Anyway, they were surprising to him. said Mrs. Boomer, “these two eggs you have been wondering about really are my own, my very own. I am sitting on them this very minute. you may be sure I would not be sitting on them. Now, what was your next question, Peter? “If you please, Mrs. Boomer, how did_they get here in this flat rock?” replied Peter. “I laid them here, of course. a stupid question!” replied Boomer. “But what did you do it for? What are you going to do with them here?” Peter persisted. “What did I do it for?" said Mrs. Boomer. “What does a bird usually 13y eggs for?

The fact is, Peter was having hard work to belicve that those two ears hadn't fooled him. “I mean just what 1 said,” replied Mrs. Boome| “Weren asked Peter.

The Valley of the Kings is de- scribed as “one of the most desolate places on the earth, where not even a blade of grass will grow.” 2 In “The Romance of Excavation” David Masters tell a wonderful story of the greatest discovery of mummies. Long centuries ago, the priests, hor- rified by the desecrating of roval tombs by robbers, went stealthily into the hills and removed many of the royal mummies to a secret hiding place. One day in 1881, Sir Gaston Mas- pero, the famous Egyptologist, was shown some wonderfully illuminated pages of a royal ritual. He asked where they had been procured, and learned that they had been bought in_Thebes. Hastening to the ancient city, Mas- pero pursued his inquiries, and at last suspicion pointed to four Arab brothers who lived in some deserted tombs as having secret knowledge of some important discovery. In the end, the offer of a huge reward made one of the brothers divulge the se- cret. . He led a party of explorers from Deir-el-Bahari to a lonely spot where a great boulder had falien from the cliff. Screened behind this was the entrance to the tomb, which had escaped human eyes for three thou- sand years. Entering by way of a shaft forty feet deep, the exploring party groped its way along tun- nels, down steps cut in the massive rock, ever deeper and deeper into the heart of the mountain. At last it reached its goal—a huge burial chamber, where the flickering can- dles shone on the glitter of gold and the exquisite colors of mummy cases. That strange underground “hiding- place contained the mummies of eleven kings, nine queens, a prince and a princess. OLD OPERA REVIVED. ¢#Xerxes” Produced After Lapse of ¢ Nearly 200 Years.

But I never make a nest. Personally I do not approve of nests. “I've never heard of such a thing!” exclaimqd Peter. I don't believe you will find any other bird that will agree with you.” - “Oh, yes, I will,” replicd Mrs. Boomer. “I have a relative who be- lieves and does just as I do. “Who?” demanded Peter. “Mrs. Whippoorwill,” replied Mrs. Boomer.

NURSE TORTURES INVALID TO FORCE MAKING WILL ‘Wealthy Recluse, Aged 75, Finally Escapes When Woman Called Away From Berlin. BERLIN, August 9.—Diabolical cruel- ty inflicted on a wealthy invalid of seventy-five years by his nurse to force him to make a will in her favor has been discovered by the police in the Berlin suburb at Weidmannslist. The victim is a retired jeweler named Schade, a widower, without relatives, who lived as a recluse with a woman named Goldheim acting as nurse and housekeeper. For tww years Schade never left the house. A few days ago, however, the nurse was called away from Berlin, and during her absence the old man was found on the pavement outside the house. He was filthy and ema- clated, his mind was unhinged, and there was a gaping wound in the back of his head. He had retained sufficient reason to see a chance of escape from his prison, and had crawled through the window into the street, where he col- lapsed from~ exhaustion. He was starving.
