HUES REGIME AIRCRAFT TRAFFIC STATES AtiltMK TO ADMIT FOREIGN PLANKS OVER THEIR TERRITORY

Areas May He Prohibited Tor Milliar) Reasons Or For Public Safety

LONDON.—The air convention signed hi Paris is one of the most interesting of the agreements which have been made by the powers taking part in the peace conference says an air ministry announcement. The admission, by a state of foreign aircraft to the atr over the territory and to its aerodromes, even though carefully safeguarded, marks an epoch in international arrangements to which no parallel cun be found. It is true that a visiting ship enters the territory of a state, but this is only at the actual frontier, whilst international motoring is confined to a negligible quantity of tourist traffic. in all other cases the means of conveying goods or passengers across a state have been controlled by the state or its nationals, hoth with respect to rolling stock and roads. Experience alone will show how far, apart from commercial development. air transport will affect the relations between state and state iu advancing ‘‘international comity," hut there is little doubt that its potentialities in tliis direction are very great. The formation of the inter-allied air commission, and its inclusion in the organization of the peace conference, was due principally to the nitiative of the air ministry, who realized that the independent negotia‘ions on the subject of air traffic jetween England and France only touched the fringe of a very large luestion. it was considered essential that a ode of iutornutional air law, world wide in its scope, should he drawn up, and that in the drafting of if our dominions, our allies and a many as possible of the neutral dates should participate. The new code of international air .aw is presented as a convention in .vhich are embodied me general principles, technical details neing relegated to annexes. In the framing of it the commission found no Jifficulty in deciding the vexed luestion of sovereignity in the air. The first article of the convention recognizes specifically the principles if sovereignity, and its tone liroughout is to regard the admision of foreign aircraft as a < onc< > ion rather than a right. Nevertheless, proiided that the omliiions of the convention are o)>- • erved. the contracting states underake in time of peace to accord Ireelom of "innocent passage” to the ilrcraft of the other contracting tales, any restrictive regulaflotis icing applied without distinction of lationality. The principle of sovereignity is irtl r recoi ed by the right . < ■ortled to a state to declare prohibited areas for military reasons or iu he interests of public safety, and it will be interesting to see how far, u view of the development of aerial ihotograpliy, a state will find it vorlh while to declare prohibited nils for military reasons. A separate chapter of the enlivenion deals with the international uni mission for air navigation, nhli h is being established as part if the organization qf the league of isilions, and ronsLts oi two represmtatives of the I'nlted States. France. Italy and Japan, one represmialive of Gnat Britain and one of -ach of tho British dominions and if India, ami one representative of •aeli of the other contracting states. Vi bile the Bi Utah enipira a» a .vhole will have six or possibly .even representatives, Its voting power will be the ssme as that ol nne of tin principal states. The \n'ing is so arranged that the li\e great stales, tf unanimous, will ul wh> - b ■ in the majority. The couve nt ion onfy contemplates flying in time of peace, and its proci.joiis do not affect the freedom of iction to the contracting states .jther as belligerents or as neutrals.

A tremendously ex . ited Chinaman turned in an S.

.Mounds Constructed For Ceremonial Purposes Within Earlb Inclosure

MADISON, MTs.—That the builders of the famous Indian earthworks on the Crawfish river near Lake Mills were cannibalistic, is the statement of Dr. S. A. Barrett, president of the Wisconsin Archaeological Society. During the past two months the Aztalan earthworks enclosure has been subjected to investigations and excavations by the Milwaukee museum of which Dr. Barrett is the head. Although the grounds have been plowed upwards of seventy years, tin; outline of the earthworks is still (lislioct. The fabled city of Aztalan was first discovered in 183C and surveyed in 1X37 by N. E, Hycr. The city was named Aztalan by Mr. Hyer, because, according to Humbolt. the Aztecs had a tradition that their ancestors came from the north, and ihe possibility that the newly discovered remains might have built by them, suggested the name. When tile first survey was made Ihe enclosure covered about eighteen acres. The remains of the city were enclosed in a wall of earth and adobe bricks which was t»31 feet long on the north, 1,419 feet on the west and 705 feet on the south side, making the total length of th« wall ”,7- r )0 feet. It was from one to five feet high. “That many of these mounds were constructed for ceremonial pusposes was evident from excavations we have made,” declared Dr. Barrett in a recent address at a meeting of the Wisconsin Historical Society and Wisconsin Archaeological Society held in Aztalan. "In the center of some of the higher mounds within anil outside of (he inclosure were found ceremonial pole walls imbedded in stone and cement of gravel and clay. In a few of these mounds we have found stone hatchet.-, arrowheads and cellos, and iu one of them we found an ear ornament that was famous among the Dskimos. From the pottery found in these mounds it is evident that the tribe which built the famous inclosure at Azialan was familiar with the Iroquois Indians in the east, the Algonqulns and lower tribes of the Mississippi Valley. "This earth inclosure was a ceremonial establishment. It was not n stockade; it was not a fortification. There are indications that the |ieopl» who built and inhabited this place practiced cannibalism. Among the bones and fish were found di momliered bones of human beings, and these bones had been cracked for their marrow.” The complete excavations at Aztalan, an almost forgottf n village twenty-seven miles east of Madison, whi, h in terrltorii I days rivali d Madison for Hie. side capitnl Is an almost forgone t village.

( AVI) IS PHENOMENON

Ice Freezes Inside During Summer, Rut Not In Winter DES MOINES.—Ice freezes iu summer, but not in winter, in the Decorah ice cave in Winneshiek county, northeastern Iowa. While ice does not invariably form In Hit walls of the cave all summer, it is there many of the warm* r mouths, while in the fall and early winh i tho walls are dry and bare. The state geological survey's ex planation of the phenomenon Is that in the winter the temperature in the cave, tho sam as outside, goes below the freezing point. However all moisture near the surface has been -aled in the ground and links by the frost, and no water finds its , cave. The a alia ol t he i avert! get colder and colder and retain the cold. When spring thaws reUc.so the water it trickles into the cave aero * ; ihe cold walls and freez.es. That condition continues until late fu summer. The cave is the only one of its kind known In Iowa.

. 1KKTOR livem ON’ SO CENTS A DAY j Sav- lie Car. Do Krlior Work With Light Rat ions CHICAGO.»-Hcre is an opportunity Jor every person to reduce the h gh cost of living and at the same time reduce his board bill to twenty cents a day. Dr. Thomas'J. Allen of Eureka Springs, Ark., is the exponent of the new diet. Dr. Allen, one time president of Aurora college, won fame several years ago when he won the appelatlon of "peanut fiend," because he subsisted sixty days on a peanut diet. Dr. Allen, who Is a convert to a new diet, believes variety will outdo the peanut in satisfying the "inner man,” so he has concocted ways and means to solve the high cost ot living. “I find I can do much better work, physical and mental, by living on a simple complete balanced ration of two or three articles of food,” said Dr. Allen. "For the last five months my food has cost me less than twenty cents u day. “For dinner I had half a loaf of whole wheat bread, about six ounces of whole wheat and half a pound of raisins. A loaf of good bread and a quart of buttermilk made from skimmed milk by means of a dissolved tablet, with two ounces of corn oil made a meal that any working man can enjoy. On such a diet 1 can walk from ten to twenty miles a day and do the most Intensive mental work. "I eat but two meals a day, eliminating breakfast. In the morning 1 take merely a cup of cocoa without sugar, eating nothing else until noon. I eat a cake of yeast before each meal. "I expect to go on eating this way for the next fifty years. 1 am satisfied it is my diet which has prolonged my life. if any one doubts the practicability of the near-monodiet, 1 nm open to challenge of any sort that many serve to establish it.”

U. S. PI RGES T RACT OF COYOTE PESTS Co-operates With Wool Growers In Colorado Valley In Killing Beasts MONTROSE, Col.—That thousands of dollars have been saved to the wool growers of Uncompahgre valley through the efforts of the I'nlted states government, in cooperation with the Uncampahgre Valley Wool Growers’ Association, in waging war upon coyotes is shown by figures published here. For years coyotes have fed upon the lambs and the fowls in the valley, but this season the government has maintained a corps of experts in the valley to prevent depredations by the coyotes. Strychnin* - poisoning is used in combating tne coyote, and hundreds of the animals have been killed. A dead carcass is dragged along the coyote's trail and small pellets ot horse meat containing strychnine are placed along the trail, resulting in the poisoning of the coyotes. The hides ot the coyotes poisoned and captured are sold, the proceeds reverting to a fund esiublished by the Wool Growers’ association to check the numerous raids of tbe coyotes.
