If there is any one thing more than another that is essential .to real protection of the game birde and animals of this both laws and seasons.

Graves Many Centuries Old There was received at the Affiliated Col- leges last week an enormous shipment, packed In 185 cases, of Egyptian curiosi- ties gathered by Dr. Reisner as the fruit of recent excavations undertaken by him on behalf of the new museum of the University of California. As soon as it is, possible the thousands of objects contalned in the cases will be catalogued and thrown open to the view of the public. The cases received last week contalin the result of explorations of cemeteries at Gizeh and Naga-ed-Der, the last named located 300 miles south of Cairo; on’ the edge of the eastern desert. The explora- tion at this point gave results of unique importance, as every stage of the early development of Egyptian civilization was followed in unbroken sequence and thus provided splendid opportunities to de- termine the races of the earliest inhabi- tants of Egypt. The explorations at this point are completed and the new museum will be enriched by a splendid collection of sculpture, statuary, pottery, imserip- tions and mummies of the utmost value to archaeologists and ethnologists as well as being interesting to the general pub- lic. In the course of the work at Naga-ed- Der a-large number of very fine em- broideries were discovered which had once adorned the apparel of later captive mummies. The latest point of excavation is under the shadow of the pyramids of Gizeh, where a concession of one-third of the field- has been purchased and here it was determined to concentrate effort in un- covering a large scction of the great cemetery. Tops of rough structures of stone and brick were exposed, showing a very early type of structure, probably of the fourth dynasty. During the excava- tion a number of statue chambers were brought to light and opened. The con- tents were found to be very valuable and interesting. Inscriptions, statues, jewelry and pottery, besides mummies in différent degrees of preservation, were found in the tombs or in the debris of the cemeteries. By a comparison of thesrelies found in the tombs at Naga-e¢l-Der and at Gizeh ! it was determined that the dating or tae | tombs extended down to the sixth dynasty. Judge Ferral has opened offices in the Schmledell building, 604 Montgomery street, corner of Clay. - — e WANTS SEPARATE BUILDING FOR TECHNICAL SCHOOL Board of Eduecation Hears Petition of Pupils and Will Ask Super- Aet. The Board of Bducation' yésterday held a special meeting to consider the petition of the pupils of the Humbol&t Evening High School that the proposed Evening Technical School be estab- lished in a buillding separated from the Polytéchnic High School. The Super- visors have purchased a site for the latter school near the park and it is argued that this is too far for -the young mechanies who desire to go to the Evening Technical School. They ask that the school be put in a more central location and that $125,000 of the appropriation of $350,000 be used for the purpose. The Board of Education took the matter under advisement, with a view to ascertaining if the Su- pervisors are willing to cut up the ap- propriation so as to bufld separate buildings for the Polytechnic and the Evening Technical schools. If they re- fuse .to do so they will be asked to appropriate the necessary amount in the next municipal budget. ————————— McEnerney Presents Views. Garret W. McEnerney continued the argument before .the jury sitting in Judge Kerrigan's department of the Superior Court yesterday in support of the codicil of the will of the late Sam- uel Davis. In his argument of the day before Oscar Sutro, of counsel for the proponents, pald Special attention to the testimony of the handwriting ex- perts, so McEnerney gave most of his attentfon to the evidenceé of the many assoclates of Davis that identified the codicil as a genuine instrument. The argument will proceed today. Baking — PURE AND HEALTHFUL. — ADVERTISEMENTS. “The Black Flag on the Big Three” In Everybody’s for March, Lawson says that the petty crimes of the big insurance companies have been.revealed and will be stopped; but that the larger stealing—by mil- lions and millions—has been made safer for the grafters than ever. The only remedy is “to place the company in the hands of men at the coming annual election who will find out how many dollars have been looted, and have them make complete restitution and punishment and after that, an honest organization.” If this is not done, he pre- dicts the insolvency of the “big three” within five years.
