LBilU SLEEP 0011 BROKE! Luxor Aroused by Scientists After Slumber of Three Thousand-Years. ' VALLEY". OP THE KIN'OS. LUXOR,. Egypt, March 22. U'y The Associated Press ) Luxor, like King Tutankhamun has been roused from its repose of 3,000 years and :is taking on some thing of tle habits , and characteristics- of : a twentieth century town. ' ', Fox ages a conventional stopping place for Nile excur sion steamers and tourists, it bas lately, become a -center for peo ple of all classes, including stu dents, college professors, anti quarians, doctors, . undertakers, dressmakers and souvenir hunt i rsi. " The newly-found tomb . ot t Tutankhamun ' Is the magnet that draws them all. Tourists are at- tracted here out of curiosity, but ' professional men and women, un dertakers, mbalmers, dressmak erst, arid milliners, come In the I hope of, getting new Ideas for i their business from the i mummy chamber of the ancient king. : Science Amazed To modern undertakers , the - klll of the ancient Egyptians in preserving tbJeir dead against j the ravages of ages is , a source of amazement and mystery , and many of them hare applied to Howard Carter, discoverer of Tutankhamun, for th privilege of examining the Pharoah's body when . it Is divested of its garb of gold and its bltumenized ban dages. ' : t Embalming in ancient times - was a much more elaborate, and expensive process ; than it is to day... It required three months for Its completion, and coat 11. r 600., It was a luxury hat could i be afforded only by the fich. The anefents believed that mummifi cation In this' life was -the only sure, means 6t their resurrection , In. the .next. Pathetic elfots wfre . made , by the poor to secure eternal life to their dead. Am erican archaeologists tn Luxor . have lately found skeletons ' of humble .peasants plaeed near the graves. of the royal dead. Their relatives, It appears, too poor? to pay for embalming,' placed the bodies near the . graves ,of the . nobles- : in the hope that i their poor ': ' frames would partake of the sacredness of the njbbllty and thus rise with thjsmj in the next ltfe. . ; ;- f . J 'tJ " Prayers Accompany - Ceremony The .first step In embalming a body in Pharaohonlc days was to place - it -. in a 1 powerful ' .saline solution for, thr'ae ' months. The Intestines were' then removed by : means of a 'sharped-edged .stone, -thi ' brain,- heart and Jiver were taken out and the body impreg nated -with myrrh,: accacla, bltu " mem and aromatic oils. It was inert 'wrapped la hundreds , of yards of linen soaked In preser " vativia. i -The . annotating of the mummy - was! accompanied by " - prayers, and .Incantations to the gods, led by the high, priests. , I Herbert E.-Winlop,' director of excavation at Thebes for the New York, Metropolitan' Museum of 'Art, showed tne correspondent a 4,200-yearold 'Egyptian princess that, he : unearthed last weak in i the valley of the Qneens.

"What Is a Fair Valuation lor Real Estate." was the substance of the animated discussion ai the weekly luncheon of the Real tors Thursday noon. They haven't finished the vote as to what land Is really worth, but a number of speakers ; were heard and Rom1. Interesting angles were presented. A. C. Kohrnstedt presented the case from th'e point of view or the Joint stock Jand banks that loan money on real estate. Tne general practice has been to con- slder the 1913 land values as a fair basis. Ut Is ; argued, how ever, that with the vast growth of orcharding;, and the bujiains of so many hard surface roads, values on some x lands have been greatly Increased. Some loaning companies have, limited , all Im provements, such as orchards, to $150 an acre in addition; to the base value of the land, and; on this they would not loan more than one-half the appraised val uation even though bearing or chards, may be commercially val ued at fouT-f igure prices. John A. Scott recalled the days when some of the lands around fWvalKs. where he lived as a boy, were sold by the old-time sure thing pion-eers- as high as $40 an acre, and they chuckled as they passed the title i to the tenderfoot suckers from the east whom they said would be sure to lose their lands they couldn't raise enough crops to' pay inter est on that purchase price. The lands have gone up to five t'mes that price, and some pay inter est on that added valuation, i He believes! that there Is no other, place In America where loan values can run as high as here, because of the variety of crops. He believes that loans may and Ehouldlbe made on a basis higher than that of one or two years' income. v "JLiOng time loans are peeded," he said. . "It the loan compan ies want to cut down th.e loan time to 20 years instead of 33 years. It isn't enough. ; r But or chards are precarious, and not everybody knows how to make an orchard pay. A long-time loan . on an orchard makes it a gamble on personalities. Even that, howeyer; fruit warrants a larger loan than the year's in come.'

SALEM AtBAHY WOODBURN CORVALUS J. A. Mills believed that all lands would have to b subject ed to an individual valuation, because of the widely varying conditions of good roads-, proxim ity t" towns and orchard : pro ductivity. L. IL Roberts said that he has sent to threo Salem stores to buy Salem-grcwn prunes of equal grades. In one store he paid 2 cents, in anothvr 15 cenis, and in" another 18 cents a pound for the prunes that were bringing the grower 6 1-2 cents. , "Until the rarmer g-eta a better share of this money," he, said, there will be no farm prosperity, and farm ; lands will go down rather than up. The' same prunes sell back eaRt as high as 2T cents a pound. If we would help get the farmer his rightful share of a fair h riling price, and pull the price down to where-f the1 people could and would buy the stuff greedily, land values t would take care of th-flnselves." r Karl Becke ' argded that, since land values have been .-.Increasing steadily .fb1r.c6 "year and bade fair to continue increasing with better culture and crop selection, any present valuation was not for now only, but for the whole life of a loan, with the certainty of the lands increasing. lie be lieved that to accept the 1913 land ; valuations, based on i the terms of what the dollar would purchase then as compared with the present, " wtyild be fair. , S. -R. Tandy of Jefferson ( said that, he had been In business for 21 years and had sold some farnis as many as five times, each time at an increase . over the last price. .He djd not be lieve that the limit had been reached. j The Realtors are to continue the , discussion on what farm lands are really worth, whether it is goodt or bad to see prices go up in the face of present land Incomes in the valley. They all agreed, however, that the bet ter farmer will solve much of the trouble by making his Income so, much larger that values will simply have to go up. BISHOP GETTING WEAKEit. ST.

Large numbers of destitute Russians fled into China during the past winter. Today their situation is serious, and some of them "face starvaton. Relief .measures have been underpt taken by various organizations, in-1 ciuaing tne American nea cross, which has. appropriated a prelim inary sum,of $25,000 to give Im mediate succor. i It was estimated . in February HEAD T RUSSIANS AIDED DY BED CROSS . - ...... . that nearly CO, 000 Russians had como Into China, Manchuria, and Korea,, and that probably 25 per cent of this total were entirely destitute. Reports gathered ' by the American Red Cross from con suls and .other officials indicated that a large proportion ot the ref ugees were scattered through Manchuria, with colonies at Kirln, Mukden and Hunchun. In Man churia the relief work is under hte direction of Morgan .Palmer. Meanwhile, V; various i agencies were called on to care for, the growing number of Russian ex patriates In Shanghai. The niira? ber here was considerably swelled eariy in the year hy the arrival of 1C vessels, the fleet under Admi ral Stark, on which more than a thousand Russians had fled from Vladivostok whon the Red forces took over control of that port. In Shanghai permission to land was denied by the Chinese author ities, but nevertheless several hun dred persons from the ships con trived to get ashore before the ves sels sailed for Manila. . They , in cluded -about n.'O Russian orphan boys who were quartered by char itable organizations in two huge unfurnished houses? ; At the present time, with the exception of the Japanese, the Russians outnumber all other for eigners In Shanghai.

WMn&&lifflii&fi' Oa Willamette Debaters Lose to Lawrence College Team Willamette debaters met -a. lit tle more than their match at Ap pleton, Wis., Wednesday night when they lost a 2 to 1 verdict to the debaters from Lawrence college. The Appleton team pre sented the counter argument that the proper thing would be an eco nomic conference, instead of the United States formally obligating itself to the league of nations. It isn't certain th?t the La Follette influences in Wisconsin had a hand in the decision, though a special wire from the team. Thursday says "no alibis."
