Stories from Pyramids.

In the Gentleman'S Nagdzine is an
article on the Pyramids, furnishing
some curious information in regard to
the material, and differences relating to
the Scripture story of Pharaoh and his
host.
There are remains of sixty-nine at
DashOur and Sakkara of divers forms
one being built in five distinct ter
races-and of every size; from the
merest cairn of stones, loosely heaped
together over the tomb of the poor,
gradually advancing to the perfect
structure, whether small or great,
which marked where richer members
of the community slept their last sleep.
The majority of these are built of the
crude brick, baked in the sun, and are
far more recent works than the giants
at Gizeh. 1t is supposed that some of
these may have been among the labors
of the Israelites to which Josephus al
luded when, speaking of their Egyptian
task-makers, he says: "They put them
to the draining of rivers or channels,
walling of towns, casting up of banks
and dykes to keep off inundations;nay,
the erecting of fanatical pyramids"
SCIENTIFIC men are able in these old
bricks - distin guish barley from
wheat straw, or bean haulm from stub
bic. One pyramid at Dashour has been
especially noted, its bricks being made
almost without straw, Just the merest
indications thereof, as though made in
time of some scarcity-lille that when
the Israelites gathered stubble instead
of straw. An old wall of precisely
similar bricks was found at Heliopolis.

1t is said that the Egyptians relig-

evil might befall their kings; and it is
very remarkable that monuments

FoRTY-THREE bodies of the victims of the
Newhall hotel fire were inferred with impress
sive funeral ceremonies at Milwaukee. The
service of the Roman Catholic church was
celebrated over twenty of the dead at st.
Johns cathedral and that of the Protestant
church over the remaining twenty three in
the Exposition building. The bursting of a
steam pipe at the Exposition building during
the service created panic, but no one was
injured. The united funeral procession was
more than two miles long.
SINCE the Newhall house disaster Mil
vaukee seems to have become a prey to the
flames and to fatalities therefrom. Shortly
after the dreadful hotel fire the explosion of

college were aroused from sleep in

the burning building in their night dresses.

MONTREAL has had week of festivities
under the title of Winter Carnival. With

the city was thronged with visitors from all
parts of Canada and the United States. Flags
we're flying everywhere. On the opening day
there was grand procession of sleighs, and
hundreds of students went marching through

The Use of Perfllmery,

A Chicago druggist, interviewed by
a reporter upon the subject of per-
fumes, said: THE perfumery trade has
increased in this country until it has
become enormous, simply enormous.
Besides the immense quantities i'm
ported from France there has sprung
up a constantly increasing manufacture
in this country"
"The American manufacture of per-
fumes is of comparatively recent date,
Is it not?"
"Within ten years 1 think. Before
that time Lubin held the field Within
that time, however, the Yankees have
tried their ingenious hands at the bust
ness and have succeeded very well.
There are now about dozen promin-
ent manufacturers of American per-
fumes, and although they have not yet
succeeded in surprising tho imported
goods, that is in my opinion, yet there
is not the slightest doubt that they will
do so in time. Besides the twelve large
firms, there are perhaps a hundred
