Gold-Filled Elephant Tusk
Found In Mining Claims
SEATTLE, Dec. 18. (/P)—An au
thentic fossil tusk of the wooly ele
phant of the glacial or postglacial
period, with gold fillings like a mod
ern tooth, has been presented to the
museum of the University of Wash
ington by Edward Ssuires, who dis
covered it on a mining claim on Do
minion Creek, forty miles from Daw
son, Yukon Territory.
The tusk is ten feet long and
weighs 250 pounds. The theory of
Nathan Kresge, museum caretaker
and former Alaskan, is that the relic
was there when tons of earth with
paystreak settled down, so that gold
nuggets were forced into the cracks
of the tusk giving the effect of mod
ern old tooth fillings.
Police Dog’s Reputation for
Catching Crooks Criticized
BERLIN, Dec. 18. (/P)—Konrad
Most, of the Union of Shepard Dog
Owners of Eisenach, declares the
German police dog Vould never attain
the results it does if deprived of
the officer leading it. He cited 48
tests before police authorities and
scientific experts in which the dogs
failed in their tasks when their
leaders wrere absent.
Realization of the dog’s ultimate
inadequacy in this respect led the
German army command to interdict
its further employment during -war.
General Wood Encourages
Athletics In Philippine Isles
MANILA, Dec. 18. (£>)—'Governor
General Leonard Wood, always an en
thusiast in sports, has issued a state
ent to encourage athletics in all im
portant governmental and private or
ganizations in order that a broader
field from which to select Philippine
representatives in international con
tests may be available.
Among the organizations named as
potential sources of strong athletes
are the United States Army and
Navy, the Philippine constabulary,
the Manila city police, and govern
ment bureau employees.
The governor general urges early
preparations for the training of Phil
ippine representatives in the next Far
Eastern Olympic games, which are j
to be held in Peking in 1927.
Finds Movie Acting Has
More Thrills Than Dancing
BERLIN, Dec. 18. (JP)—Tamara Kar- i
savina, idol of lovers of the artistic i
dance, liaas gone into the movies be
cause she finds film acting more ex
citing than dancing.
The wonderful thing about film act
ing is that one always feels as
though it were a first night perform
ance,” she said. “Everything is final,
never to be repeated. The least im
portant role requires short but com
plete concentration. There is a charm
of creative acting about it that is no
where to be found on the stage.”
London, New York, Berlin and oth
er large cities, however, will continue
to see Karsovina’s unique dances,
because dancing, after all, is her life’s
work.
Beauty of Castel Nuovo to
Be Revealed to Tourists
NAPLES, Dec. 18. (jP)—After thirty
years of intermittent efforts on the
part of the successive mayors of
Naples, supported by prominent art
lovers, it has been decided to raze
the cluster of unsightly buildings
which so long has marred the su
perb beauty of the famous strong
hold known as the Castel Nuovo.
The Castel Nuovo was built in
1279-83 by Charles I of Anjou from
a design supposedly supplied by
Pierre d’Angicourt, and was enlarged
successively by Alphonso I in 1442,
by Don Pedro de Toledo in 1546
and by Charles in in 1735. The
kings of the houses of Anjou and
Aragon and the Spanish viceroys
one after another used it as a dwell
ing.
Besides its outward architectural
beauty the castle contains a famous
lofty Gothic armory.
Bicycles Keep Pedestrians
On Jump in Copenhagen
COPENHAGEN, Dec. 18. (/P)—In
America, one dodges automobiles, but
here it is the bicycles.
During working hours, the streets
are alive with cyclists and in one day
as many as 514,826 were counted in
various points in the city.
While motor cars are increasing in
number, the bicycles are increasing
at a greater rate.
