The Fad OF Fashionable People for Relies
from the Nile Country.
Another fad which IL might be hard
to account for is the sudden liking we
have developed for things Egyptian.
Fashionable folk can not be assumed to
feel any interest In Miss Amelia Is. Ed
wards or her archaeological researches,
and yet it is fact that the lotus flower
and the sphinx are the favored emblems
in recent decorations.
The chances are that it is an obscure
development of the not yet subsidized
classical mania. From Josephine to
Napoleon and from the Little Corporal
to Egypt is a journey the taking Of
which is not incomprehonsiblo.
Whatever the cause, we embroider
Nile rushes with the sacred Ibis wading
among them for boudoir screens, we
wear scarabeus ring and suspend scara-
beus pendants about our neclks, and
when VIC want clock we hunt the bric-
a-brac shops through until we find one
in silver with Ra, the hawk-headed
man, who stands for the sun, supporting
it on one side, and Osiris, the mummy,
type of the strugglors of humanity, on
the other.
One OF the clocks was bought recently
for Nine. de Stuors, who is connected
with the Astor family. 1t was in silver
and bright bronze, and rested on the
back of the bull Apis, and Isis, horned
like q COW. leaning over it from behind.
The raised work Of the silver took the
shape of hleroslyphic inscriptions. N.

SEVEN DAYS ON FIRE.

How Heroic Captain Saved Ills Vessel
and Her Passengers.
Some weeks are longer than others,
as every school-boy is only too well
aware. How long, then, must have been
the seven days which an English cap
tain and crew passed, few months ago,
in burning steamship The steamer
Hawkhurst sailed from London on tho
9th of March, bound for Rio Janeiro
When she was seventeen days out dense
volumes of smoke began TO issue from
the ventilators in ono of the holds.
The ventilators were at once blocked,
and holes were bored in the deck, into
which water and steam were poured.
But the fire was under great headway,
and all efforts TO eXtinguish 1t proved
unavailing. Above 1t was an iron "be-
tween-deck," and above this were
slowed seven hundred barrels of oil,
tow, tallow and other highly-inflamma-
BILE materials.
For four days, the captain says, the
decks were red-hot. His first thought
was to put back to the island of st. Vim

course imprudent. lie knew, besides,
that he should find no facilities there
for putting out the fire.
He determined, accordingly, to steam
on 20 Rio, a distance of twenty-three
hundred miles. lie might have put in
at Pernambuco on the way, but he was
resolved, il possible, to save the ship
and the cargo. At Pernambuco he would
have had to fill the hold with water, to
accomplish which 1t would have been
necessary to run the ship aground, at the
risk OF q total loss.
At the end OF the third day the star
board bunkers took fire, but the crew
put the flames out in twenty-four hours.
On the day following the port bunlers
began to burn, and this fire 1t was found
impossible to extinguish till after the
ship arrived in port For seven days
the burning steamer sailed on. Then
she steamed into the harbor of Rio,
where the authorities Immediately set
their fire brigade at work, and in two
days the fire was subdued.
In recognition of the captains heroic
conduct the Emperor, Dom Pedro H..
conferred upon him medal, accompany
inglthe gift by the following letter:
Thomas Robertson, l, the consti-
tutional Emperor and perpetual de-
fender of Brazil, send you greeting in

"At that time you were at distance

risk of your own life, saved the lives of
all on board, and wishing to give you
proof of my imperial appreciation for
such distinguished service, l hereby
