EXPLORER TO SEARCH EGYPT TELLS OF TRIP IN SOUTH AMERICA

fBy Associated Press) PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 21. Despite the terrors hroue;h which he passed while Journeying through the wilds of South America, Dr. Alexander Hamilton Rice, explorer, plans soon to leave for Egypt in an endeavor to locate a certain species of goat which Is invaluable in medical research work. He expresed this intention in an address on South America before the Geographical society here. Dr. Rice said his trip through South America took him up the Rio. Negro, the largest tributary of the Amazon, through a natural canal more than 200 nines long connecting it with tie Orinoco, into hitherto unexplored portions of Brazil. It was here that he came in actual contact with Guaharibos, a virtually unknown tribe of Cannibal Indians, who for 17 days pursued his party in an effort to cut off

their return. Indians Attack at Night. The attack occurred in a wild spot along the banks of the Orinoco, where Dr. Rice had made camp the night before. Two of his Indian guides had gone up the river in a canoe to test the depth of the water, when they saw something moving along the banks. "A few moments after the guides' return," Dr. Rice said, "the entire bank was literally lined with wildly shrieking and gesticulating figures

who brandished bows about seven feet i high, with arrows. six feet long. Justl opposite me I saw one huge size creature, evidently the chief or leader, who was shouting and foaming at the mouth and making motions that ap

parently meant to express anticipation of a hearty meal that night. He was neither negro nor Indian, and he had black hairs on his upper lip a thing I have never seen on an Indian. "We tried talking to them in every language and dialect at our command. Escape in Canoes. "Finally when one of their arrows landed just at my feet, I decided it was time to do something, and we fired the Winchester rifle and Parker

shotgun, our only weapons, over their

heads. That frightened them for the

moment, and gave us time to get our things packed together and a start down the river. Shortly afterward, darkness descended, and all night long we could hear their blood-curdling screams as they kept at our heels. "When morning broke," he went on, "a thick mist covered the entire river, and it was this that gave us our chance to escape. When we finally reached deep water we knew that we were safe, for the Guaharibos do not use boats or canoes, and it was too deep for them to wade."

OHIO LEGISLATURE MODERNIZES METHODS

(By Associated Press) COLUMBUS, O., Dec. 21 Glory in authorship of certain laws may bo curtailed, but at the same time grievous errors would be reduced to a minimum .and legislation speeded up, if the Ohio house or representatives adopts a rule which Clerk John P. Maynard says he expects to have presented soon after the legislature convenes January 3. Under the rule advocated by Captain Maynard, bills would not be introduced by individual members. They would be presented as proposals. These proposals, more in the form of suggested

legislation, would be sent to the proper standing committees, which would consider all proposals bearing upon the subject. From the various proposals the committee would formulate

a bill, if it deemed legislation of the proposed character needed. The bill would carry no designated author. The bill, after its introduction by the committee, may or may not be referred again to committee. Another rule which may be proposed by Captain Maynard, which probably would have to be a joint senate and house rule, would provide for amending conference committee reports by joint resolution. Under present rules, a conference committee's report on a bill can not be amended on the floor. It must either be accepted or rejected. ' The present rule, Captain Maynard says, has been responsible for many objectionable laws in the past, as interested persons have been able to obtain amendments through conference committees which would have been unable to obtain otherwise.

It has been estimated that steamers are 20 percent safer than sailing vessels.
