"Without or with offense to friends or foes I sketch your world exactly as it does." uvnoff. Azilian Man Ignorance anion"; newspaper reporters and head writers regarding primitive man is even more dense than it is con cerning evolution, if it be possible. Monkeys seem to be on their brains for the Dayton trial was called the "monkey trial," though monkeys have nothing to do with evolution, and now we have the erudite Oregonian referring to the relics of primitive culture found by the Andrews expedition in Mongolia as "ape-man" relics. The stone implements, weapons and ornaments found of a forgotten race on the desert of Gobi he calls the "dune dwellers" are classified by Dr. Andrews as belonging to Azilian culture. He also reports a few relics from the still older culture, Mousterian, both of which are cultures of races belonging to the old stone age and arc not to be compared in antiquity or primitiveness to the semi-human Neanderthal race that inhabited Europe in glacial times or to hue human races that followed them. The succession of human cultures as agreed upon by anthropologists divides the old stone age into lower and upper palaeolithic periods, the former covering the glacial periods, the latter the post-glacial. In time the periods extend from perhaps 500,000 B. C. to 10,000 B. C. The lower palaeolithic period begins with the l're-Chellean culture, after which follows the Chellean, about 100,000 B. C, then the Acheulean or transition to shelters, then the Mousterian (Fourth Glacial time), about 40,000 B. C. The Upper Palaeolithic opens with the Aurignacian cul ture, the beginning of post-glacial lime, and witnesses the arrival of the true genus homo in the Cro-Magnon race of hunters and artists, about 25,000 B. C. It is followed in succession by the Soliitrcvin, Magdalenian, (close of post glacial time) 10,000 B. C, and Azilian-Tardenoisan about 10,000 B. C, which ended the old stone age and ushered in the new stone, age, or Neolotliic, the age when polished stone replaced chipped stone in weapons and ornaments. The Azilian period, of which Dr. Andrews found remains in Gobi, was the age when the stag had replaced the reindeer in Europe, the final stage of the "Cave Period" with weapons and art inferior to the previous culture. It gets its name from the great cavern of Mas d' Azil in the foothills of the Pyrenees, 40 miles from Toulouse. The culture deposits contain flat harpoons of staghorn and painted pebbles of enigmatic geometric designs, which may have had symbolic meanings, or have represented beginnings of an alphabet. So the Azilian man, far from being an ape man was the immediate predecessor of the neolithic men from whom the present races of Europe are descended, and Azilian blood probably flows through our veins today. The Verdict The coroner's jury, after an extended investigation, found that lack of discipline at the stale penile!. tiary was resjxuisi hle for the prison break and battle in which (wo guards and one convict wero killed and anolher ijuard wounded, and three convicts made good their wtaway in broad daylight. However the coroner's jury failed to place the responsibility for the lack of discipline. What is u coroner's jury for, except to place the responsi bility for murder and crimes it investigates and "give a true verdict thereon according to the evidence?" However if the jury was unable to place the responsibility for the lack of discipline that was responsible for the break, which was responsible for the murders, the public labors under no such inability, for the evidence presented the jury, as summarized in our news columns, is convincing enough for most anyone not a political partisan or a member of the jury. If lack of discipline was rcsixmsiblc for the break, the person in charge of the prison must be responsible for this lack of discipline and the conduct of the institution, n responsibility that has been voluntarily assumed by the warden. It is well enough to blame the building for being old, to blame the legislature for not expending more money in its improvement, but the fact remains thai such scenes were not enacted in the prison when it was not in nearly as good condition as at present, and that, without discipline, a new prison would not hold the convicts. When the prison work-shops burned, ways and means were found to rebuild them. If the construction of prison towers or other repairs are necessary to keep the prisoners in, ways and means could be found for their construction. There is an abundance of idle labor that could be utilized and an abundance of brick available. i Nor can politics be blamed altogether, for politics has given us competent as well as incompetent wardens but in the present instance, the politics of the administration can not escape its share of responsibility. pected ally In Hewitt. not that lie would have admitted that they were tricks! But this man was a personage, he must be won -over he must prove herself as expert as the wife of the head of the firm in entertaining him, Two minutes later they were talking about pigs! Patricia couldn't remember after ward Just how It had started. He had spoken of how warm the eve nlng was, and said that he had just come from his farm where It was much cooler. She had asked about the farm, and the pigs had followed naturally. "Fifty llttlo fellows, beauties born Inst spring, and you should ee them now," he exclaimed enthusiastically. "What do you feed them ? My father bought some for our place in the Berkshires two years ago iiid we had to buy every bit of feed and the neighbors contribut ed garbage," she told him laugh ingly. "S used to make the rounds In our car and gather It up we couldn't get a servant to do it." 'Turned mine louse in the corn ant the orchard," he answered. That's the easiest way. What kind did you have?" "I don't know the name, but thoy were little red ones perfect Innings." m lie chuck led. "You look like a lily of the field and you know ibout pigs," he commented. "My wife won't let me mention 'em when she's around thinks they're vulgar." le was telling her about his milking machines when Mrs. Hewitt nnd Andrew returned. Mar cia Hewitt surveyed him disgusted ly as ho sat swung round toward Patricia, their heads close to get ti llers was the attitude of the woman who always expects to find hor husband flirting and is never dismayed by continued failure. What d'yout think, Marcla; here's a girl who knows ubout fanning,", he exclaimed. I hate a farm! I simply loathe the country!!" declared Mrs. Hew itt, flirting a purple feather fan that swore at her henna' d hair. "Though I would like to be back at ours for tonight at least. Our rooms at tho hotel are simply atlf-, ling, I know that I shan't sleep a wink. I'm a perfect wreck, and we got In Just this morning. We're going to leave the first thing to morrow I simply won't stay . in this stifling place. They told me It was cool here in the fall," she con cluded reproachfully, looking at Patricia as 1! she had made tho weather. "Oh, not tomorrow, surely," said Andrew. It would be fatal to let Howitt get away so soon "Try it a day or two longer. Mrs. Hewitt, do! Patrlcla'll go shopping Mth you, and " "I'd love to go shopping I do need some things but I can't atand trying to sleep in a hot room. Why, our town house Is delightful back home my bedroom Is thirty feet long, and has fireplaces. What's this?" looking suspiciously nt tho caviare that had been plac ed before her, "Fresh caviare? Not that it makes any difference I don't care what I eat. . Food means nothing to me. No, we'll go tomor row." Andrew looked at Patricia des perately. She leaned forward and spoke as graciously as she could, though her heart was like lead. "Why not stay with us, Mrs. He witt?' she asked. "Our apartment Is so high up that It's very cool. really quite delightful. 1 m sure ou'd be comfortable. Ana Mrs. Hewitt, knitting her brows petulantly, hesitated a mo-: ment and then replied: "Well, I don't know but that .might bo a good idea. Anything would be bet ter than that hotel."

And like as not you grown-up youngsters would travel Just ns far as Jimmy, were you summon ed to witness such a sight when tho greatest show on earth comes to town Saturday, August 29. But it Isn't true. That Is to say, Lthe picture which accompanies this talo of the Rlngling Brothers and Bnrnum & Bailey circus press agent wasn't snapped as you sec it reproduced here. It merely rep resents what is known as "trick photography." Both of the subjects are with the combined circus.

The hippopotamus la Soudan, father of the Hinyling Brothers and Bar num & Bailey youngster hippo, "Tiny Toodles." Miss Leltzel nnd Soudan are close friends. And now that the giant fellow Is a proud parent, he is unusually amiable. Still he and Lilly are not quite as "close" as the illustration repre sents. It was like this: The circus photographer first made a por trait of the hippo. Next ho posed Mlsa Leltzel- in a swing. Then he made a double printing and so ob tained this startling result. Soudan and family will receive afternoon and night in the red and golden cage that stands in the center of tho menagerie tent u'hen tho cir cus comes here.
