C. a part of his army mutinied on thc shbria of the Caspian Bea. There -is a legend that he hid ail his gold, royal possessions and spoils of war somewhere in the Vi cinity to keep them from falling,into the hands of the mutineers. The Aicheolo gical Society of the Republican of Azer bainjan lias begun a search for this trek sure. it is believed to be buried about sixty-five miles from the city of Bakii. - V' ’tk THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE There are no historical data on the sub ject as to the location of the treasure, but an old man eighty years old living at Andrievka says be owns an ancient map which was stolen from a Turkish sultan many years ago. This map, he says, indicates that the treasure was buried near bis village. .’Whether or not the archeologists locate the treasure, it is believed that they will at least exca vate inaiiy valuable relics throwing light on the peoples and natiqns which in habited the country before the time of Christ.

On previous trips MacMillan has for bidden members of the party to talk to each other during the [lay or at dinner time, and to keep away from each other as much as possible. "The isolation ot that -vast region soon exhausts all timely resources.” MacMil lan explaihed. "It is not long before the men know the life history of each other, that of their families and rela tives ami virtually everything else in con nection with tl[e ordinary man's life. When those subjects have ceased t 6 be topics of conversation and the few other sources hnve played out, the men be come a bore to each other. That leads into an unfaVotafyle morale. So we talk as little as possible and keep our coun sel by being aloof."

McDonald, jr.. of Chicago, in com mand of the l’eary, a* well as chief of radio on this expedition, had suggested radio as a means of combatting this iso lation. Hut MacMillan thought that homesickness be a different evil because of the contact with the world or that bad haws from the family might se noqsiy upset the morale of the party. Space was found in the crowded Bowdoin for radio equipment and MacMillan de cided to give it a try. It caused none of his anticipated rdsults but filled a keen want. Dinner time in the Arctic be came an occasion of entertainment and gossip, rather than a period of quiet and sobered eating. One of the radio incidents which Mac- Millan remembers as distinctly as some of his scientific discoveries, was an eve ning during the Christmas, holidays when, unannounced or prearranged, the instru ment picked up the voice of his sister. He did not hear her name announced or the statiton from which she was talk ing. He only recognized her voice. It was checked up later to find it was Mrs. T-atltia Fogg, broadcasting a greeting to her brother. American heiress nowadays are receiv ing an elaborate “finishing” education.
