be candidate for reelection at the coming
senatorial convention, but was not claiming
the nomination. although he naturally
hoped to secure it or he would not again
enter the lists.
GOV. Gilman smiled on everybody who
came within the portals of the hotel early
yesterday morning and appeared to be well
pleased with himself and everybody else.
1t was said by the knowing ones
that while the governor, through his
promised state Oil inspectcrShip organ,
the Evening Dispatch, had been
yelling about the sharp practice played by
the Ramsey county Republican committee in
calling an early convention. to the end that
McGill delegation to the state convention
should be secured, his henchmen had been
quietly at work fixing up the primaries and
arranging for the convention to-day. 1t
was intimated that the Gilman men were
telling the Ramsey county Republicans that
a McGill delegation in the state convention
would react on eX-Gov. Davis as sena-
torial candidate at the next legislature, and
that the force of this logic turned many an
enthusiastic McGill follower into an advo-
cate of an unpledged delegation from Ram
sey county. Rumor had it that the proba-
Bile result would be that Ramsey county's
delegates to the state convention, while
McGill men, would be uninstructed, and left
to vote as they saw proper. This would be
regarded as great victory for Gilman, and
he and his lieutenants were correspondingly
elated.

4 Joke on the Barber.
San Jose (Cal J Times.

A we'll known young man who Is en-
gagged i'll the real estate and insurance
basiness took seat in the BARRIERS chair.
For convenience he will be called Joe. He
is very fastidious young man, promin-
ent in exclusive society circles, Is a native
son and has private cup in the barber
shop.
Joe laid back in the chair, and dreamed
of large stacks of hay he would insure
during the day.
The barber reached for Joe's private
cup, and after considerable effort he got
enough lather out of the cup to shave
once over his face.
The barber made two or three strokes
of the razor and Immediately thought he
detected queer odor on oe's breath and,
said:
"What kind of liquor you drink dis
morning?"
Il don't drink, sir"
After a few more strokes under the chin
the barber said;
You vas had barty last night, may
PEE"
mo, sir"
The whiskers were then scraped from
the other cheek, and the barber again
said:
"Your stomach is out of order some, I
guessg"
whats thatg"
The odor was very strong by this time,
and finally the barber said
Il can't shave you until you take some
thing for your breath, 1t smells like a
sewer"
Joe jumped eleven inches out Of the
chair, and said:
.''What's the matter with your own
breathe 1t would stain furniture. / near
IL had the cholera while you have been
shaving mel"
And the young man started for the
washstand. while the barber stood with
the cup in hand wrapped in thought He
rlaced the cup mechanically to his nose,
and stencil struck him that would cause
the blush of shame to mantle the cheek
of the open sewer ditch.
Two comedians had put q job on him.
but did not anticipate the result. Yester-
dav morning they had cut piece out Of
turnip il. the form OF cake of soap and
placed ii in his shaving cup. He did not
come to the shop yesterday and the yege
tabls became sickly. Enough iather had
remained in the brush - SHAVE HIM once,
and the Joke was to be OF the barber,
when he would break his arm trying TO
raise lather out of piece of Curnip,

Bright and early Monday morning

queried:
"Was my son William in here a day or

HE might have been here" was the re-
ply.
"Tall fellow-a little stoop-shouldered,
and a sort of chain-lightning look about
him"
II think he was"

him why he didn't buy radiator. He
nothing would do but | must come in and

oyentful rule, lay profane hands upon the
monuments of their great predecessors,
cut them up for building material, and
use them in the construction of debased
limitations of earlier schools. This pro-
cess, in all proba oility, is again and
again repeated. Not merely stones, but
statues, obelisks, are appropriated and
reappropriated, worked and reworked, till
at last there comes time of disruption
and change, when the old religion is abo-
lished, and the images of the gods are
cast down, and the very language Of the
inscriptions is forgotten. After this, the
sacred places become quarries for the
builders of Coptic churches, Arab mos
ques, and the palaces of Turkish COVER
nors. Meanwhile the actual city, consist
ing of labyrinthine lanes of mud built
dwellings, gradually disappears. The
spacious houses of the RICH the novels of
the poor, crumble, collapse, and resolved
themselves into mounds OF dust and
potsheds. Such is the local history of
hundreds of ancient Egyptian sites, and
such is the history of Tanis.
A hundred years ago, the grave of this
dead city was yet inviolate. Then, az now
the great stand island was heaped high
with disolate piles of rubbish. Then, as
now, those mounds enclosed a low, level
area of large extent like the bed of dry
lake, or the crater of an extinct volcano.
The traveller who-onco, perchance. in a
decade-scalod those crumbling slopes
and looked down into that area, beheld at
his feet an undulating waste enclosed by
what at first sight looked like a quadran
gular rampant of earthworks but which
proved, on closer inspection, to be the re-
mains of an extraordinarily massive we'll
built OF sun-dried bricks. The space thus
bounded was strewn with ruins.
Such was the aspect Of the place when
surveyed in 1898 by the engineers OF the
great Freech expedition, Meanwhile there
was war in Egypt in India, in Europe, on
land, on sea-universal war, followed, in
1919, by universal peace. The rich, the
learned, the adventurous, the speculative,
were once more free to travel, and the
world was speedily overrun by tourists
and traders. The picture market and the
antiquity market, both long dormant,
started into new and vigorous life. In
Egypt the soil was strewn with treasures
which II was not only profitable but
praiseworthy to rescue from the destruc-
tive propensities of native fellaheen and
Turkish pashas. A host of depredators
laid hands accordingly upon every nova
BILE object within their reach, and the col
lections so amassed were sold for enor-
nous sum to crowned heads and wealthy
virtuosi Thus were founded the great
Egyptian galleries of our European mu-
seums,
