Digging ont the Egyptian sphinx.

A correspondent, who assisted in ex-
cavating this greatest of all ancient
works of man, says:
'The Sphinx of GhiZeh. at two steps
from the Pyramids, is, in my opinion,
the most astonishing work of the hand
of man which past ages have be-
queathed to us. It is an immense bed
of carved rock, about seventy metres
in length. The height of the mon
strous edifice, If it were cleared. would
exceed that of the highest houses. No
fashioned monument, either in the rest
Of Egypt or in the rest of the world,
can be compared to this strange idol,
the vestige of a stage of humanity
which battles all our ideas.
The impression which such spec
tacle must have produced on imagin-
ative races, and who were dominated
by the senses, may be understood from
that experienced by the Egyptians OF
the present day when standing before
that enormous head, merging from the
sand, and casting across the desert its
sad look. The Arab, at this fees ter
rified, either throwing stone or firing
q gun at the strange being. The tenn
pie opposite the Sphinx, if it is a tenn
pie, has also a character of its own.
This fantastic construction resembles
less the other temples of Egypt than
the Parthenon resembles Notre Dame.
That all this ensemble, which is unique
in the world, must be of the remotest
antiquity is indisputable, since the
statues found there are those of King
Chepren, thus taking us back to ages
which, everywhere but in Egypt,
would be called fabulous"

A Thibetan wife.

Among the Thibetans a man marries
only one wife, whom he purchases from
her parents, a belle often costing as
much as ten ponies and thirty yaks.
The price to be paid for the wife is
arranged by relative or friend, who
acts as a go-betWeen, and the only
marriage ceremony Is a grand spree,
lasting as long as the bridegroom can
afford to keep it up.
The life of Thibetan woman in this
part of the world cannot be deemed a
hard one. She makes the tea, it is
true, but with that the housekeeping
ends, for no one ever dreams of clean
ing the kettle afterward, and everyone
has to mix his own tsamba and lick
his bowl clean when he has finished.
Every four or five years she may have
to sew new sheep-skin gown for her
self or some one of her family, but GER
tainly not oftener. She cannot herd
the cattle or sheep; men must do that,
as there is danger from marauders.
She passes her time spinning yarn.
weaving a coarse kind of cloth, out of
which bags are made, turning a prayer
wheel, and-destroying too voraciOus
Yermin.
Her toilet requires rearranging only
four or five times a year-when she
visits Kumbum or some other fair; she
never washes herself or her garments,
and her children cannot outgrow their
clothes; they have only to let out a
little of the folds of the gown, their
unique garment, tucked up around the
waist, and it viii fit them until
grown up.

The Sunday Sun.

The supreme court decided the @. L.
Swartz habeas case in Swartz's favor.
Swartz was charged with being the
circulatOr of the Kansas City Sunday
Sun, and was arrested on an indictment
by the Shawnee county grand jury, and
released on a writ of habeas corpus by
the supreme court.
The supreme court now releases
Swartz, and says: 1.-THE act of the last
legislature under which the indictment
was found was not in force at the time
the Indictment was found. nor when the
Offense was said to have been commit
ted for the reason that the act had not
at such time been published.
The facts are, this act was published
in the Capital, the official state paper,
but published under the head of Joint
resolution, instead of BE it enacted, -
which made the publication void.
The mistake was not discovered until
after the case had been taken to the
supreme court.

next season. The farmers should get
some seed and give this corn general
test in 1892.
Barnes Enterprise: Chas. Comstock
threshed twenty-five acres of oats for
Adam Scroll, near Chepstow, few days
ago that averaged sixty-three bushels
to the acre.
The Stock Grower, of Las Vegas,
New Mexico, says that the Enterprise
cattle syndicate lately shipped twenty
carloads of cattle from the territory to
Chase county, Kansas, where they are
to be pastured and fed for market.
Stockton News: A farmer from
north of town was on our streets with a
load of onions which found ready sale.
He said he would have over 800 bush
els from one acre, in addition to a
large number of cabbages. That kind

EDorado Republican: Twelve But
Ter county farmers, who came to this
county with practically nothing, and
who have made their money farming in
Butler county, have since last January
put $4,000 of their surplus in Butler
county bottom farms. The rich farm
ers Of Butler county are getting
richer.
Independence Tribune: Messrs. C.
w. Lease, Jonas Beeghley and other
farmers of the Walker Mound vicinity,
have grown a goodly crop OF broom
corn, which they recently shipped.
They consider 1t a surer crop than In
dian corn and fully as profitable. The
seed will almost pay its cost, when
chopped and mixed with other feeds.
Hazleton Express: The big rain of
Sunday and Monday morning soaked
the ground to an unusual depth for this
season of the year. We believe that
$50 men with teams and plows could
get employment for the next thirty
days in this part of Barber county.
Many farmers want sod broken out to
plant in corn next spring, and will
put all their old ground in wheat this
fall.

Sbarpers VINO COT Len,

There is a sharper's game which has
been played for the last hundred years,
and as the turning point is avarice, the
game works forty-nine times where it
fails once. Two sharpers set out few
weeks ago, says the Free Press, to play
1t on a Wayne County farmer. One of
them came along one day and wanted
to buy a farm. AS the farmer
wanted to sell, it was quite easy to
strike bargain. The price was to be
81, 600 in cash, and the man handed
over $3.50 to bind the bargain. Within
two days q second stranger came
along and wanted the farm. He
wanted it so bad that he couldn't stand
still. He found indications of coal,
natural gas, and coal oil, and he was
willing to give So, 500 for the place.
The idea was, of course, that the farmer
would be awful sick of his first sale
and seek to buy the man off. 1t would
pay him to offer the man 81, 500 to re-
lease him
The second stranger was only out of
sight when the first one turned up
again. His mouth watered over the
prospect, but not for long. The farmer
explained that he had been offered
-, 500 more. and added:
But I don't care for money. The
-, 900 is enough for me, and it's all the
old farm is worth When you are ready
to pay the balance, well make out the
papers.
The purchaser offered to release him
for 81, 0OO-S700-$5 0O-$3OO, but the
farmer didn't want to be released. He
hung to the bargain money, and he's
got It yet, while the pair of sharpers
rave and gnash their teeth every time
they think of the thickness of his
skrtll
