Cossacks Refuse to
Violate Old Tombs

The similarity of the burial

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

to Domestic Trouble
It may be Home consolation for
those who have a servant girl prob
lem to read the following reference
to similar troubles In the life of a
great man.
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

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

those made with blue light filters.
