EGYPT’S TREASURE TOMBS LOOTED

Priceless Relics Now Shown in London Escaped Plunderers for Fire Thousand Years. THE NOST VALUABLE EVER SEEN Jewels Which Once Adorned Queens and Princesses of Dynasties Recovered at Last The many tombs of the rulers of ancient Egypt continue to give up their priceless stores of wonders which five thousand years ago decked the arms and necks of queens and princesses of fabulous dynasties. And for five thousand years and more burglars and body snatchers have been secretly plying their grim trade among the Pyramids and the quarries of Old Nile, pillaging the sarcophagi of the mighty dead until it is a wonder there is-any-thing of value left for the modem eye to feast on. In spite of all illuminating discoveries are still being made, and some of these are strikingly exemplified in the fascinating exhibition of the latest excavation work of the British School of Archaeology in Egypt, which has just opened at University College, Gower Street. There are many interesting things to see and ponder over, but the most engaging is the treasure of Lahun, which has been triumphantly looted from the mysterious Pyramid by Prof. Flinders Petrie and his energetic little band of workers of the Fayum province. Many years ago Prof. Petrie cleared part of the temple of the Pyramid, fixing it to Senusert 11. of the twelfth dynasty (about 3400 B. C.), and found the entrance. Last year it was determined to make a thorough clearance of this site. It was done. Five tombs of the royal family were found, and all of them had been But in one of them the burglars missed, by some extraordinary mischance, the chief glory of the royal treasure. Prof. Petrie, who is a cracksman of greater craft than any brown-skinned Raffles that ever crept across the Saharan sand, found that glory, and the result is that the most valuable group of jewelry that has ever reached Europe is now to be seen here, under a glass case in Gower Street. Though it dates back to nearly 4000 years B. C., it is shining and so fresh that it might have been made yesterday.

The wonderful collection includes a beautiful collar of gold cowries spaced by beads of gold, two bracelets of small beads of gold turquoise and carnelian, four wristlets each ornamented with a pair of lions face to face, a rope of gold, a pair of armlets us 37 rows of turquoise and carnelian beads spaced in gold, and a great necklace of pendants of gold, lazuli, carnelian and blue-greeu felspar. Attached to this is a pendant scarab of Amen-emhat 111., which Prof. Petrie declares to be the finest known for color of the lazuli and for workmanship. These treasures were found buried —to quote Prof. Petrie’s own words — “in an almost incredible position.” On the southern side of the pyramid of Lahun are four pits sunk in the rock, leading to chambers which contained burials of the royal family. In one of these chambers the granite sarcophagus had the lid pushed back as far as it would go, hnd then partly broken away. “Not a chip of the burial remained.” The tomb had then been deserted and left open. Meanwhile, in a recess about three feet wide and five feet deep, close to the sarcophagus, there stood two ivory caskets of jewels and vases and large gold crown, all untouched and absolutely perfect. It is marvelous that the plunderers who broke the granite sarcophagus open and destroyed the burial could have overlooked this pile of treasure within a yard of them. From the canopic jars which accompany the jewels in this fine show those who can read these mysteries may learn that this burial was of a royal daughter, Sat Hather-And, the daughter of Hat-hor of Denderch, add the jewelry shpws that she was probably a queen of Amen-emhat 111.

WOMAN MAKES LIVING BY DROWNING KITTENS

Also Chloroforms Dogs, and Income from Her Queer Profession Is $2,500 a Year. St. Louis, Mo.—Miss Irene Barton of this city has probabl/ tjje most curious occupation of any person in the world, , for she is a professional kitten-drown-er. She also chloroforms pet dogs whlcn have become old and infirm or have been injured, cremates .their bodies, in a thoroughly scientific manner and performs other work of a similar nature, but her specialty is snuff- > ing out one of the nine lives of a cat She has a “price list” which enumerates the charges for her work. Her smallest fee for drowning a Utter of kittens is 25 cents and she guarantees to do it painlessly at that price. Miss Barton has plenty of money and does not have to work for a living. She started the unique business because she believed many persons killed undesirable animals by cruel methods, and also that too many homeless kittens were allowed to live, only to starve and spread disease later in their lives. She is said to earn as much as $2,500 per year. _ Indifference lathe one thing capable of freezing the milk of human kindness.

ROOSTER GUARDS HOME LIKE DOG

Bird Attack® Stranger By BUI and Spur if Trouble Starts Los Angeles.—A “scrappy" rooster is a watchdog, guardian of Aloha, the Malibu mountain home of Jack U. Henry, above Santa Monica. He is a red bird named “Governor." Besides being the protector of the home and a small black hen he is a combination of bodyguafd and alarm clock. At ail hours of the day and night the sentinel la on guard, and from hl® roost In the grape arbor at once responds to the coyotes’ howl with a wholesome cock-a-doodle-doo, and gives warning of the approach of anything on foot, wing or wheel. Mr. Henry 1® an early riser, but Governor 1® earlier. Regularly at about 4 o’clock he begins crowing, and keeps it up until he hears someone moving inside the house. The Rhode Island Red Bird was presented to Mr. Henry to be converted into fricassee, but he concluded to spare his life, for which the rooster seems to be grateful, as he has adopted his master as his pal and admiringly follows him about like an obedient dog, never attacking him, although he eagerly craves a setto with Mr. Henry’s red bandanna handkerchief. After the bout he struts about and crows rather bombastically. A stranger of whose presence Governor disapproves —and that includes all bipeds—is at once attacked and driven away upon entering the gate unless he carries a dub or takes refuge in the house and bars the doors and windows. Woe overtake any stray dog or other domestic animal that loiters In the vicinity. Henry's nearest neighbor now makes a wide detour and climbs over a high mountain range to reach his place, rather than following the well beaten trail through Governor's domain. Mr. Henry's place Is a restful retreat and a rendezvous of his friends, one of whom at dusk a few days ago opened the gate, and meandered dreamily toward the spacious veranda. There was a screech! A flash of something! A terrible clawing on the back! The friend rushed pellmell to the open door, where stood Mr. Henry, all smiles and in response to breathless questions replied: “Oh, just the Governor." Every June time some timid, blushing bride and her hero secretly go to pass a quiet afternoon at this secluded spot, where the usual disturbances consist of such raucous noises as murmuring waters, melodious songsters and cooing doves. Somehow, not long ago, an Interesting session was interrupted in the grape arbor, and when Mr. Henry returned he found a frightened couple perched high up on the trellis, frantically endeavoring to shoo the doughty Governor away.

BOY WALKS ON HANDS AND FEET TEN YEARS

Never Learned to Stand Erect, But Can Move About as Fast a® Other® Hl® Age Birmingham, Ala. —A number of doctors in this cityhave Interested themselves in the unusual case of Thomas Armstrong, a 12-year-old boy who walks on his hands and feet and has never known any other way of getting about • The youth is physically strong, can run as fast as the average boy, and can walk as long and as far as any one. His arms are slightly longer than normal, presumably from walking on all fours. It has always seemed natural for him to walk that way. The boy’s mental development has been slow, but he is gradually improving and the doctora are now trying to teach him to walk erect When he was a mere baby his father and mother died and the child had to shift for himself most of the time. He first started to crawling around to wait on himself, and for ten years, or since he was strong enough to drag himself around, has adopted the ape-like mode of locomotion. The boy was brought here from Bangor, Ala., and is a charge of the juvenile court.

Milk Bottles Lost, Strayed and Stolen Washington, D. C. —According to figures furnished by forty dealers to the U. S. Departmetn of Agriculture, a milk bottle will last for from 6 to 50 trips, the average being 22% days. If he delivers 10,000 bottles a year and they cost him 3% cents each, his dally expense for bottles would be $15.55, or $5,575.75 a year. These bottles are not all lost or broken; many of them are merely strayed. Some of the bottles get into the hands of other dealers, and some are dumped into the ash barrel by persons ignorant of their value. One miL Uon five hundred thousand bottles were rescued from the city dumps during three years by a milk bottle clearing house in one city. Milk bottle clearing houses, established in many cities, have done a good deal to reduce the losses in bottles. The clearing house helps the dealer to recover his own bottles. Ashmen and others are paid from % to % cent for each bottle returned. The usual charge for bottles returned to the owner is from 1 to 1% cents each. Employes of the exchange visit the establishments of different dealers regularly and return bottles npt belonging to the dealers to the exchanged headquarters, where they are washed, sterilized and sorted.
