It was Indicated further that as a first step toward world-wide recogni tion for the confen nee plan the result of the negotiations here might be sub milted for approval not only to the participating nations, but to those not represented here, including Germany and Russia. So far as the suggestions of Mr Harding have been made known they contemplate a meeting of nations about j lliif council table once a year to thresh out trotibleHome questions and devise means for the preservation of peace. It Is said to be the hope of the presi dent that In the end all the smaller governments will join with the great powers In whatever discussions may concern them or the world situation generally. , . AGE OF CLEOPATRA'S NEEDLE Obellk In New York Park Wa Erected In Egypt Before the Birth of Moses. Cleopatra's Needle, which stands In Central park, New York city, was tflven to the United Slates by Kf?ypt mid was transported here at the ex pense of the hite W. II. Vanderbllt. It was creeled in 1881. The crabs It stands upon are replicas of the originals, which lire in tlr Metropoli tan museum. In the museum, too, a model is to be seen showing how the obelisk was lowered mid raised into position, It Is sixty-seven feet hlKh and weighs K0 tons. (lazing ut It, it Is hard to realize that when It wns erected Moses hud not been born, thiit not one being In Europe could read or write, Indeed that (ireece, Koine, Fngland had never even been heard of, remarks the Detroit News. When Tliothmes III, erected this obe lisk, about 1500 V.. C, to commemo rate his victories over the enemies of Kgypt, his country was the richest and most powerful In the world, the great center of trade arid the leader In letters and arts. The last Indepen dent ruler of Egypt, Cleopatra, had the obelisk transferred from Heliopo lis, the old capital', to Alexandria, thereby giving It its present name. With the full of ancient civilizations the old buildings of Egypt decayed and everything about tbnt country was for gotten. Finally, ut the instigation of Napoleon, scientists undertook to solve I these secrets and aroused Interest in that long-forgotten country. WAVES OF GIGANTIC HEIGHT Thousands of Tons of Water Not In frequently Poured Upon Decks of Ocean Vesnels. Even In stormy weather the average height of waves In mid-ocean does not as a rule exceed ISO or 40 feet. Some times, however, one enormous wave makes Its appearance amidst the rest. .Why this should happen no one can say. All we know Is that a mighty mass of water rushes suddenly towurd a ship at the appalling speed of over 100 miles an hour. If the ship can meet such a wave with her bows she will ride over it, though thousands of tons of water may sweep over her decks. I5ut If the wave is following her and rushes at her from the stern, she may full to rise. Many a good ship has gone to her doom in this way. These vast mountains of water rise sometimes to a height of more than a hundred feet as high as the spire of a church. They have been known to extinguish the mast-head lights of sailing ships. Sometimes on a perfectly calm day there will be a sudden troubling of the surface of the sea, and without the slightest warning a wave 100 feet high will ant tear. LEGAL NOTICES E INQUmY ORDERED Washington, D. C. A general inves tigation to determine whether any fur ther reduction in railroad rates could be required was ordered by the inter state commerce commission. The commission announced that the Investigation would be begun at a hearing December 14. The investiga tion is Instituted, the commission said, to dete rmine whether and to what ex tent, If any, further general reductions In the rates, fares and charges of car riers by railroads applicable in inter r'' or foreign commerce can law fully be required by order of the com mission under section 1 or other pro visions of the Interstate commerce commission act, upon any commodi ties or descriptions of traffic.

C -The policy of the American government toward so viet Russia, which involves non-recognition of and no dealings with the present regime, remains unchanged, Secretary Hoover stated.

Control of destructive insects by the introduction of their natural enemies hits become an Important technique (luring the last generation, writes Paul Popence In Science. I5ut if competent observers are to be trusted, the southern Arabs employed the same method more- than 150 jeurs ago In the culture of the date palm. In his "Relation d'un Voyage dans FYemen" (Paris, 1880, page 155), P. K. Botta says : "I was ubio to verify the singular fact previously observed by Forskal, that the date palms In Yemen are at tacked by a species of ant which would cause them to perish If each year the growers did not bring from the moun tains and fasten in the tops of the palms branches of a tree that I did riot recognize, which contains the nests of another species of ant which des troys that of the date palm." P. Forskal was the naturalist of C. Nlebuhr's expedition ; his work was published posthumously in 1775. I have not seen his account to which Botta refers. It would be Interesting to know whether the history of economic en tomology furnishes any earlier record of the "biological method" of pest control. Wind and Sound. A government scientist gives an In teresting explanation of the action of the wind In preventing the spread of sound. It Is, he claims, not the wind, as such, that prevents sound from-traveling against It, but difference In the strength of the wind. If, for instance, the wind is stronger above than be low, or stronger at one side, its ef fect will be to tilt the sound waves in one direction or another. Differ ences of temperature in the air also cause deflection of the waves of sound. Other atmospheric causes exist which deflect sound from a straight course and prevent it from going as far in a certain direction as it may have been expected to pro. Some of the sirens 1n this country, it appears, produce sounds which ought theoretically to be audible at a distance of 1,500 miles, but, in fact, the authorities siv satisfied if they are heard only two miles away. The reason for the discrepancy between calculation nnd experiment was prob ably atmospheric deflection of the sound. Foch Smokes Pipe of Peace. Bismarck, N. D. Marshal Foch nnioked the pipe of peace here with Chief Red Tomahawk, cementing the friendship of 'the Dakotah Sioux In dians and France. The smoking was part of a tumultuous reception given the French soldier by thousands. North Dakota Recall Election Valid. Bismarck, N. D. The North Dakota aupreme court denied the application of five taxpayers for a writ prohibiting the ftat canvassing board from can vassing the vote cast at the recall election October 28. Three Killed In Theater Fire. New Haven, Conn. At least three persons lost their lives here when the Rmlto theater, a moving picture house, was destroyed by fire. More than four score received hospital treatment. Maybe "Grace" Widow. TOvorced women, or those who are separated from their husbands, are called "grass widows." It is said that this originated from an English rural term, "grass mare," meaning a horse that has been turned out to pasture. Some claim that it is derived from "grace widow," meaning that the wom an is a widow by courtesy of law or agreement but not by the denth of her huslrand. The expression wns first used la this country in 1S49 when o many men went to California at the time of the gold strike and left their wives at home. In Englnnd the word is one of dis repute, being applied to former mis tresses or unmarried mothers. SUMMONS. In the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for Tolk County. W. R.
