A Missing Sfenmer.

New York, March 6.-The White Star
freight steamship Saronic is now twelve
days overdue. Her continued absence is
now causing more than usual worrilnent
among the owners OF the vessel and the
c3nsignees and shippers of freight on board.
She carries over 4,GUO tons of valuable
freight. including several hundred head OF
live stock. A conservative estimate Of the
value of the cargo places it at 359.GN The
freighter herself Is valued at $500. 600, so
that, if she goes to the bottom instead Of
reaching port in the near future it means
an Immense monetary loss. 'fhe Naronic

Roberts and Engineer Robert Duncan. Of
more than seventy men. and there were sew

FOUND IN AN EGYPTIAN TOMB.

A signet Ring Once Worn by Cheop",
builder of the Largest Pyramid.
The most curious and remarkable
relic of antiquity in the world, the
holy coat and the iron crown not ac-
copied, now lies among the treasures
Of the Abbott collection which is ten
porarily deposited in the museum OF
the New York Historical society, says
the Philadelphia Press. This unique
memento Of the distant past is nothing
less than the signet ring once worn by
Cheops, the builder of the largest OF
the great Egyptian pyramids. The find
ing Of this ring was the browning ef-
fort of the great DIR. Abbott's life OF
research among the musty tombs OF
the cradle of the human race. AS
noted above, Cheops was the builder
of the pyramid which bears his name'
and, as though it were his intention to
make the structure bear witness to his
greatness down through all the ages,
the very stones and bricks of which it
is composed are stamped with MS
name. Chcops lived nearly $500 years
ago, his great pyramid being a reno
of the days when II great natons OF
antiquity were in their youth, yet we
of the last decade of the nineteenth
century can have the supreme salts
faction of gazing upon The very ring
he wore so proudly upon his royal fin
ger. The hieroglyphics are very mi
mute, yet very accurately and beauti.
fully executed, the ring itself being of
finest gold and weighing nearly an
ownce. The oval signct bears the name
of Cheops. which is in hieroglyphics in
perfect accord with the stamp on the
bricks of the inside walls of the great
pyramid. This remarkable relic was
found in a tomb at GhiZeb.

a Movement to Have 1t Occur Later
in the Spring.
The inclemency of the weather to-day
is likely to add to the popularity of the
propositions of Congressman Springer
and others to change the date of the
presidential inauguration to a later
period in the spring. The Iroquois club
of Chicago, which was only one of the
many crack political organizations which
shivered for hours in the icy winds to-
day. held a meeting this afternoon and
unanimously adopted the following reso-
lutions:
Whereas, the inclement weather of
this present March 4, 1893, has demon
strated that so early q period of the year
is unsuitable for he manifestation of the
respect felt by the American people for
their chief magistrate upon the occasion
of his induction to the great Office of
president of the United States; there
fore.
Resolved. by the Iroquois club of the
CITY of Chicago. that the congress of the
United States be respectfully memorial
lied to take such steps as will provide
that the Inauguration of all presidents
elected by the people, after this date
shall take place ut such date during the
month of May as in their wisdom may
be deemed best"
1t is announced tonight that it is
the intention of the IroQuois club to
communicate with all the other political
| organizations of the county, of both
| narties. and endeavor to secure unity
| Of action in the demand for this reform.
