The way from the palace entrace to the tombs,
one mile distant, is cleared and sprinkled with
fresh earth. The king sits in an open chair
borne by 81 men. Soldiers in ancient armor,
warriors with tridents and helmets and the
dolorous cadences of native instruments of
music unite in making pageant worthy OF tar
tar martial display. The king. who is twenty
nine years OF age, is progressive, intellectual
and bright He believes in adapting his king
dom to western ideas of civilization on the
American plan as far as practicable. The best
evidences of this was the establishment of a
legation at Washington and the permission
given to the officials TO bring their wives with

reasonable conclusions from the multiplicity Of
data already obtained, all these must be for
gotten in the chase after the authors of some

engraved tablet or supposed Runic inscription.
As soon as the authorship of the monu-
ments Is settled" he said, ''then the various
branches Of antiquarian research can be taken
up with some hope of reaching reliable
conclusions. The monuments can be studied
with reasonable hope Of learning their objects
and uses; the vestiges of art critically examined
with some expectation Of learning therefrom
the traits habits and peculiar characteristics Of
their authors beyond what history has revealed.
We may even hope to be able by skillfully

Born in that country, he deals in cattle, and
until rich enough to hire it done, he herds his
own stock. OF course he will fight, but he il
not the drunken, staggering bully he is made
out to be. The bad COWBOYS come from the
states, where they were bad men; always ach-

worst towards on earth. They are thieves.
