I STORE ROBBED AGAIN Visited for Fourth Time, Brookland' Merchant Loses Heavily. i Columbia, July 16?For the fourth time within three months, robbers' raided the store of D. E. George,' State street, Brookland, early yester-i day morning or some time Wednes-i day night, removing from the establishment goods valued at several thousand dollars.. . Entrance into the store was effected through the transom over the rear door, after which the rear door; was thrown open giving the robbers' access to the stock of goods. They secured approximately 300 pairs ofi shoes, bothj men's and women's, sev erai aozen \sniris, overalls, uusxery, | suspenders, a large number of gloves and other merchandise, hardly a line in the store escaping. The cash drawer, which contained a small amount of money, was raided, too, but a check it contained was left be- { hind. The merchandise taken will J run considerably above $3,000, it is! estimated though the full extent of; the loss is not yet ^nown. No one sleeps in the store, but aj bright light is kept burning in it at night, according. to Mrs. D. E. George. The stock was moved ap-| paerntly, deliberately, and judging! by the volume taken, some time must have been consumed in getting the goods out of the store. No clue has yet developed as to the identity of the robbers.

TO EXPLORE OCEAN'S .DEPTHS British Government Contemplating an Expedition for the Gathering of Scientific Information. The British government Is contemplating dispatch of a deep-sea exploring expedition which Is expected to gather much valuable scientific Information. Most people Imagine that the depths of the ocean have been pretty thorpnghly explored, bat this Is very far from being true. As a' matter of fact, only a very small fraction of - the Whole area of deep sea bottom hc.s - . .. I been surveyed. Attention is particularly called to a vast subaqueous' region around the Falkland islands and UP as far as Montevideo, which is almost unknown, and which, having a depth of less than 100 fathoms, may offer opportunities for the development of lucrative fisheries. The first deep-sea exploring expedition, that of the famous Challenger, ^as set on foot Just 50 years ago. The ship left port in 1872, and Ideas on the subject were in those days so primitive that there was dispute as to whether she should use wire or hempen rope for soundings. It took a whole day to make one sounding, or a olnirlo mot nf tha Hrprfffp tor hrlnp rng op fishes and other animals. Since then deep-sea sounding apparatus has been much improved .by cable ships, and fishing gear has been greatly modified by steam trawlers, which use dredges. Besides, a gretit deal that is of value has been learned by oceanographlc expeditions subsequent to that of the Challenger. Hence the new exploring vessel will start out with a prospect of accomplishing a very great deal of work of real importance. BUFFALO ON THE INCREASE Latest Reports Show That the Animal It Not Likely to Become Extinct, , at Any Rate. , v Th* font* rhat arlfitpd not lODI flCO lest the native buffalo would soon become extinct is dispelled by a report of the American Bison society, which states that there were 3,393 wild and tame buffalo in the United States in January, 1920. This is an increase of about 300 per cent since 1908, in whlcb year there were 1,116 wild and tame buffalo in this country. Of the nine government-owned herds, two Of the largest under the care of the United States Department^ of Agriculture are located in the Wichita national game preserve, Oklahoma, and on the national bison range at Dixon,1 Mont The herd on the Wichita preserve now numbers 154, including 28 calves of this year. In this herd four bulls and 12 cows are ten years of ago or over, and one cow is twenty-nine years old. The 15 animals that constituted the original Wichita herd caiM from the New York Zoological park. It is planned this year to dispose of sOme of the surplus buffalo in the gov eminent herds in accordance wltn tne i provisions made by the 1919 appropria- J tlona l bill for their care. Public parks und municipalities are the largest pa-' rrons. By distributing the animals, over the country, if. disease or mis'-, fortune overtakes the main herds, there still will be stock left with which groups could be built up agahi. LOOK FOR IMPORTANT FINDS Archeobgista Believed en Verge of Great Discoveries in District* of Central America. | Important medical and economical discoveries that will be of great value to the modern life of the peoples of the world are on the verge of being made at the present time in several districts of Central America by American archeologists. This prophecy was made by Prof. William Gates, president of the Maya society, in an address delivered at the meeting, at Johns Hopkins univedslty, of the Archeological Institute of America, the Philological association and the Maya society. Prof. Gates brought forth in his talk the fact that In Central America there has recently been discovered the evidences or an aucieui ?? ui pcv . pie, with a civilization as old and as cultured as that of the ancient Egyp- j tlans. The plans of an eminent group of i American archeologlsts for further ex-1 ploration of the remains of this ancient race were dwelt on by the 'speaker. These workers, he declared, hold forth the promise to the American people of a new region, rich with archeologlcal material, the surface of which has yet only been scratched. Among the most important discoveries expected to be made there are the unearthing of further native medical works, some of which are already in the hands of the Maya society, that will add valuable specific pharmacopoeia and medical knowledge to that ' """ * ?' ^ ?

The improved method of weldlnj j optical glass worked out at the Unit- j ed States bureau of standards, gives perfect union with practically no distortion, and is adapted for many purposes, such as making glass cells and hollow prisms, Joining lenses and clos- j ing glass tubes with accurately fit-! ting flat ends. The shaped-glass object is heated In an electric furnace to the annealing point, when the application of a small blowpipe flame along the edges to be united'produces a quick welding. IT PROBABLY IS DONE NOW From the Milwaukee Journal: On his last visit to New York, 30 years ago, Dr. C. Norman Hansen, Copenhagen, Denmark, left six shirts six collars, six pairs of detachable cuffs and an assortment of underwear socks and handkerchiefs at a Chinese laundry somewhere near Fulton Ferry. On hisv arrival recently as acting surgeon of the Scandinavian liner Frederik VIII his first inquiry was about that Chinese laundry. "Of course," he said, "I do not remember the Chinaman's name. I went to the laundry the day my ship sailed and found it closed because the Chinaman had gpne to a funeral, so I lost my linen. I shall try to recover it when I go ashore." Dr. Hansen is the author of the libretto of the Grand Opera called Kadera, which deals with life among the Eskimo, and was produced last season ih the Grand Opera Houre, nnnonhaffon TTo ic lioro tf. oaa if IO HViV VU IX arrangements can be made for th? presentation of the opera at the Metropolitan next winter.
