WASHINGTON, June 25.-Tbe Raleigh,
which was sent south two weeks ago,
has left Key West and put to sea. She
had been going about from one port to
another and her movements were easily
traced by those interested in avoiding
her. By going to sea she viii be able
to keep her movements secret and be
more apt to be successful in watching
tilibusterers.
Orders have also been issued to the
Atlanta to proceed to Cuban waters.
This erusier viii go at once to Hayti.
which viii be her ostensible destina-
ton. Her main object, however, is to
keep a lookout for flibusterers and
overhaul all such from the United
States entering the Island of Cuba.
She will be able to sail for three weeks
without a new supply of coal, but at
the end of that time her bunkers will
have to be refilled. When that time
comes the Atlanta has orders to pro
coed to Santiago de Cuba fer cosiing.
This seems to be a very innocent order.
but the appearance of the cruiser at
the port, the hOtbed of the Insured
ton, is believed to be for the purpose
of letting filibusterers know that this
country has decided to put out a strong
hand to prevent assistance from its
citizens in the way of either men or
munitions of war.
During the time the Atlanta is at sea
her movements will be kept secret by
the department, and such craft as may
be bound for the island on errands in
violation of the neutrality laws will be
likely to run afOul Of her somewhere
in their course. This may be looked
upon as an evidence Of zeal on the part
Of the navy department, but it is the
policy that has been agreed upon.

tried from right to left or from left to
right the result was still the same;
we invariably found ourselves back at
the horrible sarcophagus.
At this juncture, while we were rest
ing in a half-dazed state against the
border Of the fatal sarcophagus. grad
ually a faint, weird light became ap-
parent above our heads. BY degrees
the light grew stronger, till finally the
whole chamber was filled with a pale
green luminousness whereby we were
enabled to distinguish each others fea-
lures.
Lost in establishment, we, gazed around
us and at each other, too deeply amazed
for speech; and, as VIC found out after
wards, uncertain whether we were
asleep or awake. Tho reason we had
been unable to find the entrance was
plain. The cyclopean mass Of stone
forming the Intel of the doorway had
descended bodily, thus completely
blocking up the passage, which it
fitted with mathematical accuracy. It
was from the gap thereby created on a
higher level that the light was shin
ing, the lower edge of theney7 aperture
being about eight or nine feet above
the floor of the chamber.
The opening disclosed in this Won
derful manner was the commencement
Of q tunnel. or shaft, extending at an
acute angle upwards into the body of
the pyramid. 1t was rectangular in
form, and in other respects bore a gen
eral resemblance to the passage by
which we had entered, save that it
seemed to be9loftier.
The question now was-should we
attempt to escape along this new road;
or should we wait where we were, and
trust to the return of the Intel to its
proper place?
The light now began to fade away in
the same gradual manner it had
arisen, and it became painfully evil
dent that we should be again plunged
in darkness. Any fate would be prefer
able to the frightful sensation Of being
Dramatically shut in amidst an Inc
tense and sitting blaelness ta which
the darkest night outside would be the
bright elearhess d noon.

appeared to be an interminable time,
actually stumbled up against an OBJ
stacle.
What could it be? STOPPING, I tried
to make out by sense of touch what it
was that impeded our progress. A
very slight investigation satisfied me.
There could be no doubt that this
barrier in our way was the sarcopha-
gus, We must have made the entire
circuit of the chamber without finding
the door!
Concluding we had missed the en-
trance through some stupid mistake or
other we set out afresh, tracing with
the utmost care every inch of the pol
ished wall. Again the distance seemed
interminable, and again we accom-
plished the round Of the accursed place,
and found ourselves back at the origi.
nal starting point.
1t was a most astounding thing.
Either the door had vanished or we
were losing our senses. The silence
now was terrible and the darkness was
truly Egyptian-it could be feltl The
heavy, close air was so thick and clam
my that we could hardly breathe; our
hearts were beating at railway speed
and the perspiration dripped from
every pore. The circumstances were,
in sOoth, as desperate as they were in
explicable, but since no good could
come of sitting still we arose once
more and recommended our search for
the vanished opening.
Twas all in vain! The granite was
as smooth and unbroken as though it
had been fashioned out of one enor-
nous block. Not q fssure or crack
could be found large enough to admit
even the point of knife. Whether we

Kansas Auditor Will Refuse to Honor
Claims on the New Augmentation

Kansas Auditor viii Refuse to Honor
Claims on the New Appropriation.
Topeka, Kan, June 25.-Reports from
the committees which investigated
Senator Householder and others con-
nected with the asylum for the insane
at Topeka during the Populist admin
istration we're due yesterday, but no
meeting was held. The excuse for the
adjournment is stated to be that the
stenographers have not completed the
Transcripts Of testimOney, but back of
that probably is the hope that by wait
ing until July l, when the new fiscal
year will begin, the executive contin-
gent fund may be used to pay the COM
mittee and officers a large balance.
This hope probably will not be realized.
as Auditor of State Cole said this morn
ing that he would refuse to audit for
payment out of the appropriations for
the new fiscal year claims which had
accrued during the year now about to
close. Should he hold to this opinion
to the end, the only recourse Of the
claimants would be mandamus pro-
ceedings in the courts.
The auditors ruling will carry with
it also the claim of Labor Commission
er Bird, who borrowed 5I5O from a
bank upon his individual name, in
dOrsed by Governor Morrill,. to meet a
deficiency in the contingent fund of
his Office, with the understanding that
he was to pay it July l, when an ap-
preparation viii become available.
Should the courts sustain the auditor.
claimants would have to wait for the
legislature to make an appropriation.

were spending our honeymoon in
the lotus-eating land, and had taken
up our quarters at that admirable hos
telery known as "Mena house" which
stands at the foot of the plateau where
the great pyramids of Gizeh are so ma
jestically enthroned. It was in truth
a halcyon time, to be marked in cur
memories with the whitest of stones.
One slight drawback there was GER
tainly, but it was a mere crumple in
our rose leaf. The Bedouins would
never leave us alone. Wherever we
went they insisted on accompanying
us; it was impossible to get rid of them,
but they were withal SO polite and
good tempered that we could not find
it in our hearts to be angry. The only
way to avoid the pests was to carry out
our wanderings by moonlight. The
Arabs believe firmly that "El-Ahram"
are haunted, and will not on any ac-
count venture near the ruins after
nightfall. In this way we had the
whole place to ourselves but that, for
us, was ample society. We revealed in
our freedom, and soon became thor
oughly acquainted with the entire
plateau from the sphinx on the south
to the dilapidated temple on the north

One lovely night, before the moon
was quite full, my wife proposed a visit

No DEMOCRAT should ever say
Monroe doctrine" again. The adj
ministration, after having allowed
poor little Nicaragua to suppose
that it would be protected against
the rapacity Of Great Britain, has
been cajoled or bulldozed-it mat
tiers not which-into keeping its
hands off while England forcibly
compels the little republic to do just
what is demanded by the British.
Senator Hill was right when he
said the Monroe doctrine was mean
ingless. But it is only when inter-
preted by Democratic administra-
ton that it is meaningless. 1t has
always meant just what it purports
to mean European hands off
American countries-when Presi-
dents with brains were in office,
and it has been so understood by
all European governments.
