On the eve of their biggest night's work of the year, prohibition forces late yesterday lost George Neary, their kingpin night raider, when he suddenly handed in his resignation to Prohibition Director Itutter. For the last two years Neary has been the most feared prohibition agent in San Francisco, and lias made the biggest and most important catches of liquor law violators. Bootleggers and the patrons of "wet" cafes knew him as one of Kutter's cleverest agents.

Heading the night squad of raiders, Neary worked quietly and his i did ancient Jerusalem stand where, that is, are the remains of the old Jebusite fortress which David captured and called the City of ever been discovered as In Opliel, however, will be- more than counterbalanced by the influences of Mercury, which breeds restlessness and trickery.

A year of treachery, sickness, death, restlessness, war and labor troubles A year in which the people of America will demand their rights, though their fate will lie in the hands others. This cheerful prognostication for 1925 is made by Madame Marcia, Washington astrologist, famous for her predictions of important events, including the death of President Harding.

Madame Marcia explains that the country will start its new year under the zodiac sign Libra. "Libra stands for justice and a balancing of accounts," she explains. "It is the sign of the United States and is sometimes called The Eagle. "Under this sign the minds of the people will revert to the old colonial days and they will demand a reduction of taxes, such as the income tax. and repeal of laws infringing on personal liberty, such as the prohibition law.

"Hut their fate will be in the hands of others government officials and foreign nations which try to dictate our policies, as in the case of the sinking of the battleship Washington." Libra also stands for wild gambling and Madame Marcia predicts that millions will be lost and won on the stock exchange. produce pottery of the Hebrew pe riod, besides repairs and fortifica tion of the walls. Mr. Duncan has unearthed at Ophel Hebrew pottery victims knew of his presence only when he descended. His last big David? Archaeologists have been wracking their brains and turning over tomes of ancient and Hebrew lore, as well as many spadefuls of ancient soil, these many years seeking an answer to this question.

Is Opliel, the eastern hill, the site of the ancient city of David, or is it Mount Zion, the western hill? Some history diggers have been saying the kernel of Jerusalem of old is the former, and others have been most dent Coolidge some time near inauguration in March.

"The Mercury influence will also make us quarrel with our neighbors, Canada and Mexicot and these quarrels may be augmented into wars by the influence of Mars. "Wars with England and Japan are not unlikely, though they will probably not come this year." Madame Marcia points out that the influence of Neptune is for power and money, but that this will be offset by the influence of- Saturn, which will make money tight and tie up the country's finances.

What Mr. Duncan set out to prove was that Jerusalem had its stormy beginning at Opliel and not at Zion.

He thinks he has proved that. Incidentally, lie has proved that this lias been a most coveted spot. The spot shows continuous occupation from the cave-dwelling period down through the time of the Jewish kingdom, through the centuries when Moslem Arabs commanded the sacred site, down to the Jewish national home of modern times.

J. arrow Duncan, who since May, this year, has been entrusted with the excavations of Opliel. in behalf of the Palestine exploration fund, is emphatically of the opinion that 'Ophel is the City of David. After seven months of persistent digging, Mr. Duncan challenges all archaelogical warriors to come and seize his greatest trophy, or dispute his claim that he has discovered the real Jebusite wall of the fort which was standing when David captured the town about years ago.

Mr. Duncan has not only discovered the wall, but a splendid tower which, lie is convinced, David built and Solomon repaired, around the Jebusite basin. He believes David BEING SENT OUT Jan. 7.

H. Hecke, director of the state department of agriculture, in a statement issued today. He lists as sure indications of good times for the new-year the normal rainfall to date, snow packing in the mountain districts to provide water for irrigation, optimism prevailing in business and trade conditions improving. In retrospect, 1924 can be looked upon as a year of numerous difficulties for agriculture, although it satisfaction in many ways, declares Hccke. Anticipated crop failures in most instances did not materialize, prices generally were good and cash returns were, as a rule, satisfactory.
