The greatest expedition, he said, went un armed. They treated the natives courteously and taught them to sing Caught in Sandstorm. “We are glad to have found some- thing after our hardships in the desert,” Count de Prorok said. “Some- times we went without water when our overheated engines required wa(br: to cool the radiators of our motor cars. | “On our return from the Hoggar | country our automobiles were caught in a terrific sandstorm amid dunes of moving sand 1,500 feet high, the | | | | Mr. Tyrrell and I reached Ouargla, but the other two cars were lost for four days.

Count de Prorok said it may date from nearl 100,000 B.C. The treasures found in the tomb, in which a skeleton was discovered, included “a golden diadem dotted with stars, § necklaces of | precious stones, 18 bracelets, 9 of them gold and 9 stiver; furnishings of delicately carved wood. a complete set of toilet articles, & little mound of precious stones.” “The expedition packed up 46 cases of these marvels,” Count de Prorok said, “and presented them to the governor general of Algeria.” Count de Prorok, whose excava- tions on the site of Carthage have made him & prominent figure in archeology, 1s well known in Wash- ington. He lectured here last year under the auspices of the Art and Archeology League and afterward for the National Geographic Soclety. At the time of his visit here he was con- templating the expedition into the Tuareg country, from which he has just returned. .
