Three streams of water were played on the flames. The picker room was completely gutted, and seventy-five bales of cotton de- stroved The mill has been working nights, but was shut down Thursday night. The carding room did not run Friday and half the mill will be silent today.

AUSTRALIAN TRADE UNIONISTS ANTAGONIZE RECRUITING CARDS Motion Recently Passed by Melbourne Trades Council. Melbourne, Australia, March 24.—A motion recently passed by the Mel- bourne Trades Hall Council directing unionists to ignore the recruiting cards which the Federal Governmen: has mailed to every man of military age resulted in the tar and feathering by returned soldiers of the man who in- troduced the motion. A number of labor bodies in the Commonwealth have shown hostility to the government's acheme for creat- | ing the new army on the ground that | it is virtually conscription, but the most pronounced action thus far taken was that by the Melbourne Trades Hall | Council. A few days aftrward Premi- er Hughes, who is himself a unionist. appeared at a meeting of the Council while it was further discussinz the re- cruiting cards. He spoke to the del- egates in plain terms upon their du- tles as citizens and as British sub- Jects, denouncea the Council for its course and advieed motion as soon as pssible. He was met, however, by the point that copies of the circular containing the motion had already been sent to the various unions and that as the Council would pot meet again until after the holidays about a month must elapse before a motion to rescind, of which due notice must be given, could be discussed It was therefore decided to_defer action for a month. Meanwhile forty or fifty sold tered the office of Frederick Katz, retary of the Clerks' Union, who had introduced the motion directed against the recruiting cards, and picketed the telephones. They had with them a can of tar and a quantity of feathers, and when they had tarred and feath- ered Katz bundled him into the street A woman who was in the office and was mistaken for Mrs. Katz was also tarred.

Delhi, India, March 24—A number of sacred Buddhist relics, including a |bone of Buddha, have just been un- earthed at Taxila, near Rawalpindi, |m When I died near Kusinara. about the year 483 B. C., fragments of his bones were distributed as relics to | large number of the more important ago, knowledge of these center: was meagre and no authentic _di covery of them had been made. Bince that time, however, several certain rel- | ics_have been founa. Taxila, long before Alexander the |Great made it a military center, was | one of the holiest and most important | Buddhist sites. The relics of Buddha that have been found there were protected in various | ways, generally being placed in a crys- | tal box placed within a covered or cleft bowl upon which the nature of the treasure Is described. The workman- ship on these cases is very fine. There is a vast field of search stiil untouched in India, but the skilful and energetic work of the British Archaeological So- | ciety has already cleared up many un- certainties and {dentified many of the holy places of Buddhism, such as Kusinara, the scene of Buddha's death, and Rummin-dei, his birthplace. But there still remain hundreds of ancient unopened stupas, or dome shaped earth shrines, many of which may contain priceiess material regarding this im- | portant period. The most tantalizing of all are five “grand stupas” at Khat- mandue, which the government of Ne- {pal will not allow to be touched, and which very likely will not be opened for many decades or even centuries. partment, with the result that the ser- vice is now hanQicapped Ly a shortage of labor.
