The recent discovery made by
eminent Psychologists in the British
Museum that an Egyptian mummy
for which large price had been
paid was not a mummy at all, but
simply a bundle of rags compressed
into the semblance of a human form
has excited the liveliest interest
among the savants of New York,
and, in fact, in every city is Europe
and America where there is any in
terest taken in the history of the
oldest nation of the earth.
A most interesting discovery has
been made by German traveller,
Mr.. Zena Madden in that he was
witness to the operation of making
real mummy. The process is
described by the traveller in let
written to his daughter. 1t has
never before been published, and is
brief and to the point. II find,'
says Mr.. Madden shat it is no
longer necessary to 60 digging in
musty catacombs for Rameses or
any of his contemporaries. We can
have them made to order by two
very clever Arabs, who will furnish
kings, queens and princes at very
reasonable figures. l have had the
distinguished honor of being pres
ent while this manufacture aston
ished my eyes. A dead man was
brought into the shop on Friday.
The body was put on slab and the
entrails were removed. The brain
was drawn through the nostrils in
precisely the same manner as
Herodotus describes the embalming
process in his Euterpe. After that
the corpse was thrown rudely into
large vat of brine. After remain
ing there for a period of fifteen days
it was removed and hung by the
heels to rafter. A small brazier
was put under the head and filled
with some sort of sweet smelling
wood and fred. After this all the
doors were closed and the corpse
smoked like a ham. In ten hours
this operation was completed and |
beheld most remarkable change.
the body had turned almost black.
1t was shrunken almost one-third.
The features were pinched just like
those of an ordinary mummy and
it bore the appearance of great age.
A mummy case prepared made the
day before, but looking ready to
fall apart from age, was produced
and the corpse of the peasant, pre-
yiously gilded, was put in it, and a
long scroll of parchment was pre-
pared giving a history of the dead
mans deeds sometime about 1850
B. c., when in fact he was a few
a few days before gasping out his
last breath on the burning sands
near Gournah. The body | saw
prepared sold, / think, for f49 to
the Academy des Sciences in Paris"

The Boise Statesman saws:

The Boise Statesman says: The
men employed on the Boise and
Nampa Canal have got through the
hardpan. They have had hard
time of it as it required great
of drilling and blasting and the
progress was necessarily very slow.
They say that the work will hence
forth proceed with greater show
ing of results than formerly. Of this
there is no doubt. We hope that
they will accomplish their several
contracts in a short time for we are
anxious to see the wide expanse of
sage-brush land irrigated and made
productive.

ONCE MORE GENTLEMEN.

Various comments were brought out
last week during the vote placing
authority in the council TO bond the
city TO buy Hyde's Hall and convert the
lower tory into city offices. Many re-
fused TO vote for the improvement on
on the ground that we ought to have
water works and city lights first. Doubt
less similar objection would have been
made had either proposition been the
subject of vote, but il will stimulate the
council in soon laying before the citizens
a proposition for water works and one
for street lights. Both are badly needed
and so was city hall. Lancaster ough'
TO have a more pretentious building
than Hyde's Hall in its present state,
but il was the most available for inn
mediate use and can eventually be trans
formed into a handsome structure. The
vote for it was not as large as could
have been wished. bui it was enough,
and shows q tendency towards liberslity
for improvements that win go long
way towards Fastening water works
and electric lights.
Now let these subjects come up fol
vote Gentlemen of the Council. Let a
water plant be the next in order and
make it equally plain what is needed
and the amount 10 be expended. W.
do not want penny wise and pount
foolish arrangement. A few hundred
dollars for tank that will throw a lit
tie stream for ten minutes is of no yaln'
where fire OF an hours duration is Il
be met, and would be that much MONEY
