PAGE FOUR COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL. THURSDAY. DECEMBER 17. 1925 zs Cossacks Refuse to Violate Old Tombs MAKE IT A The similarity of the burial inouuds In Siberia, north of the Gobi, with those several thousand tulles distant on the Black sea. seems to ludlcate that they were built by the Mongols—perhaps la the age of Genghis Khan, perhaps In the day of Tamerlane (as we call Timur-l-lang). Perhaps In the time , of the khanates of central Asia— the Golden Horde, eta—In the Six teenth century. No one knows for certain. There are also found in the steppes curious stone warriors and women that face always to the east. And I think the figure monuments of Siberia are very ufuch like them. The Cossacks relate that when these stone women are carried away, to make gate posts for a house In some Russian village, it takes a balf- dosen oxen to drag them to the west, although one can draw them back again. Mol, je me sals— At any rate most of the Cossacks are extremely unwilling to dig up the burial sites, the kurgans. A hundred years ago the British ex plorer, Clarke, asked the hetman of the Don Cossacks for some men from the village to help him tbe next day. The men were ready enough until they found out that be wanted to uncover a near-by kur- gan. They refused point blank— said it was unthinkably unlucky— and Clarke did not get a look at the Inside of the mound.—Harold Lamb In Adventure Magazine.

It Is hard to believe that Bee thoven, so much of whose life must liave been spent in communion with the marvelous vision of his genius, was constantly Immersed also In petty details of housekeeping. In his diaries and letters are numerous references to them. His servants, from his own account, were nearly always Incompetent, for be describes at length their neglect of him. And one passage In a diary Is devoted to entries concerning kitchen maids, one of whom "ran away,” and an other of whom he writes—“gave the kitchen maid warning”—though It Is satisfactory to see by the next entry that “the new maid came.” In the Intervals of these distresses Beethoven wrote the Choral Sym phony, and the great Mass In DI Oxygea on Mar» That the amount of oxygen on Mars la relatively very low has been shown by a spectroscope fixed on the Mount Wilson telescope. It Is only 60 per cent as great as the oxygen supply on Mount Everest, where exploring expeditions have had to resort to the use of oxygen « tanks in order to keep alive. £ Though deficient In water and ox ygen, there Is no doubt that Mars still possesses an atmosphere. E. C. Sllpher of the Lowell observa tory at Flagstaff, Arlz., showed that photographs made with red light Ì filters made the planet appear larg ! er and showed greater detail than those made with blue light filters. 3 Red light Is known to have greater i powers of penetration through the I atmosphere than blue; so that the would tend to Indicate I photographs the presence of an atmosphere on 3 Mars.
