The Enormous Expense OF a Bulls Funeral
Sacred Crocodlles and Snakes.

The Enormous Expense of a Bulls Funeral
Sacred Crocodlles and Snakes.
II may seem strange TO speak of the
Apis mausoleum as a bull cemetery, but
such in reality II was. The bull was
sacred TO the god Apis, and was to the
initiated priests a symbol Of power; to
the ignorant multitude a divine incar-
nation in horns, hide and hoofs. "lle
dwelt," says Rawlinson, lin temple
of his own near the city, had his train
of attendant priests, his harem of cows
his meals Of the choicest food, his
grooms and curry-combers, his cham
berlains who made his bed, his cup
bearers who brought him water, and on
fixed days was led in festive process
sion through the main streets of the
town, that the inhabitants might come
forth to make obeisance. When he
died he was carefully embalmed and
deposited, together with magnificent
jewels, statuettes and vases, in n pol
ished granite sarcophagus cut out of
single block and weighing between
sixty and seventy tons. The cost of an
Apis funeral amounted sometimes, as
we are told, to as much as G20,00 ster-
ling
Now, while we of to-day may smile
at all this, il would have been grim
earnest had anyone disrespectfully
smiled in the old Memphian times at
his bovine majesty. Thirty centuries
later Il Roman soldier was torn in
pieces by mob for accidentally killing
cat sacred TO some other deity. Indeed,
the most sanguinary fights were al
ways occurring between rival town
ships, the one of which deifed the
crocodile, and the other Of which
despised the crocodile and exalted the
snake. Very curious was IL, certainly
TO thread the great underground pas
sages in which at wide intervals had
been deposited twenty-four sarcophagi
containing the mummifed bodies Of
these sacred animals. What magnif-
cent monuments of stone work they
were-lO feet long, o feet high, broad
and a foot thick each made out of
single block Of granite brought from
500 miles away, covered by devout in
scriptions, and all broken open by
sacrilegious thieves. But the whole
outside circuit of the Serapeum, dug
out so painfully by Mariette, with its
propylon, its crouching lions, its ave-
nue. of sphinxes, is now, alas, sanded
up once more. What dry-wit com
mentary on poor Keats epitaph:

An OK as a LIfe-sayer.

A good peasant in the neighborhood
Of Flensburg, Germany, owes his life to
an OK which he had purchased at the
market in that town. Before starting
for home the peasant had visited too
many wine restaurants. Fortunately,
however, some one had tied the rope
which was wound around the horns Of
the beast to the owners wrist. When
just outside Of the village he approached
too close to the canal, tripped and fell
headlong into the water. The OK,
frightened at the plunge, tried to run
away, and thus drew the drunken man
TO the bank and out Of the water. A
number Of people saw the accident

visited you for the last time, or will
soon pay you such visit, and ] have
wondered If they will ever visit you in
the Kings palace. "o," you say, II
am in the pit of sin!" Joseph was in
the pit. co." you say, 81 am in the
prison Of mine iniquityW Joseph was
once in prison. "0," you say, 81 didn't
have fair chance; was denied ma
ternal kindnessw Joseph was denied
maternal attendance. "O," you say,
81 am far away from the land Of my
nativity" Joseph was far from home.
90" you say, 81 have been betrayed
and exasperated" Did not Joseph's
brethren sell him to passing Ishmael-
itish caravan? Yet God brought him to
that emblazoned residence; and If you
will trust His grace in Jesus Christ yon,
too, will be empalaced o. what day
that will be when the old folks come
from an adjoining mansion in Heaven,
and find you amid the alabaster pillars
of the throne room and living with the
King! They are coming on the steps
now, and the epauletted guard OF the
palace rushes in and says; "Your
fathers coming, your mothers COM
ing" And when under the arches OF
precious stones and on the pavement OF
porphyry you greet each other, the
scene will eclipse the meeting on the
Goshen highway, when Joseph and Ja-
cob fell on each others neck and wept
good while.
But oh, how changed the old folks
will be. Their cheek smoothed into the
flesh Of a little child. Their stopped
posture lifted into immortal symmetry.
Their foot now so feeble, then with the
sprightliness of bounding roe, as they
shall say to you: "A spirit passed this
way from earth and told us that you
were wayward and dissipated after we
left the world; but you have repcnted,
our prayer has been answered. and you
are here; and as we used to visit you
on earth before we died, now we visit
you in your new home after our ascen-
sion." And father will say, Mother,
don't you see Joseph is yet aliveP" and
mother will say, "Yes, father, Joseph
is yet alive" And then they will talk
over their earthly anKieties in
regard to you, and the mid.
night supplications in your behalf,
and they will recite to each other the
old scripture passage with which they
used to cheer their staggering faith: 81
will be God to thee and thy seed after
thee" o, the palace, the palace, the
palace! That is what Richard Baxter
called "The Saints Everlasting Rest"

Celestial City" That is Young's

rhe superstltlous people Of Calcutta.

The grossest superstition exists in
Calcutta. Recently an Indian had a
live goat flung down from his two-story
house in accordance with the directions
of a so-calied magician, who was called
in to cast out a devil with which, q son
was supposed to be possessed. The
poor brute was first fed with a few
bamboo leaves over which the wizard
mumbied some mantfas and il was then
pushed over the terrace. The animal
was killed and its flesh was distributed
to the p'or.

Better Stay Away.

While the semi official organs
of Honolulu are ever busy in
booming" the country and tel
ling the world about the wonder
fol chances which Hawaii offers
to white" farmers and laborers
San Francisco paper writes in
the following manner, and We
think the paper is right:
According to advices received
by the steamer Australia Satur-
day morning from Honolulu there
is much concern demonstrated
there by the people over the
large number of people that are
arriving there lately on the steam
and sailing vessels. In one week
the total number Of people who
arrived at Honolulu was over 200,
most of whom were Americans,
who had gone to the islands in
the hope of securing employment
and lettering their financial con-
dition.
The majority of the new ar
rivals have been greatly disap-
pointed and United States Con-
sui : General Mills is becoming
alarmed at the rapidly increasing
number of Americans who are
stranded on the islands.
Other consuls, and in fact the
Hawaiian officials. have also be-
come alarmed at the increasing
immigration, and when the Aus
tralia left tie papers were calling
upon the government to take
steps toward stopping the incom-
ing tide of humanity. 1t is fear
ed that if some action is not
taken to prevent people without
means from going to the islands
the Hawaiian Government will
soon have an army of unemployed
to contend with. 1t was expect
