WEST SIDE COUNCIL.
It Elects Another Policeman to Fill
the Place of Deposed Nc
Mickle

Mickle
A special meeting Of the West
Side City Council was held last
night.
Mayor P. A. Turner occupied the
cushioned chair, while Bob Burke
held down the hair on the goose
quill and made his mark Emanuel
to the minutes of the meeting
There were twelve other chairs
to fill with aldermanic acumen, but
only seven put in a claim for the
seats.
There were Beard, Kelly Kizer
Mccartney, Estes, Gallagher and
Mcdowell, with City Attorney
Vaughan and Marshal Edwards on
the outside of the charmed circle,
The first business presented to
the council was the election of a
policeman to fill the place made va
cant by the removal of Alb McMick-
el. There we're several applications
from those who wished to take the
chances of getting killed in the al
leys or down in the Third Ward on
the canal. Their names were can
vassed, and it was thought Dave
Edwards would stand the best
hack, and he was selected. He will
wear star on his manly breast
now, ride on the street cars free
and get all Of the other good things
that naturally come to police
man. We think Dave will make
good officer.
Hon, r, D. Hart appeared and
made speech in behalf of the 7 q
P. railroad, in which he
showed that the road kept flag
man at night on Oak street, and
that it costs something to keep
these men standing around waving
red flags and that the road had
tired of paying these bills and want
ed the Council to allow them to
take the man off, The road offered
the excuse that they were paying
tor an arc light and that the double
expense was more than they wished
to keep up. Mr. Hart made such a
sweet, convincing talk that his
speech was laid on the table until
next meeting, without any action
being taken, with the exception
of a committee being appointed to
wait on the hagman to see If he
wanted to give up his job, and also
to see the Texas & Pacific officials
and find out what excuse they had
for running their road across this
street anyway, and such other data
touching on the matter,
City Engineer Stuart held up his
hand; said he HAD something to say,
The Council told him to out with
It,
MIR. Stuart then recited as how
he had moved about 1900 yards OF
dirt and would like to get the "pan'
ming" from the same, The assayist
thought the dirt was rich and he al
lowed him $24O,A
MIR. Darst Wilson, Is the Deputy
Clerk of the Texarkana civil and
criminal court, said he wanted an
Office IN the City Hall buildings that
he was told an Office was coming
to him and II that was the case he
would move in as soon as the room
was designated,
He was told he could use the
northwest corner room down
stairs, and have part Of the vault

Mr. McMickle was on hand with a
proposition, lie said he would build
a bridge free If the city would fur

Interesting Discoveries in Egypt.

Prof Mahaffy In London Atheneum.
The following information. which have
just received, will interest English stu
dents OF archaeology. Digging at Maya
dab, In Upper Egypt. Mr.. Petrie has come
upon q very curious cemetery. which
seems to be about the age Of the twelfth
dynasty. But the people buried there are
not Egyptians or of Egyptian habits, for
the bodies have been Systematically mu-
tfiated. The heads We're taken OF and
apparently buried after the body. More
over, the principal bones of each body
ara broken off at the marrow end and
enawed," so much so that the idea of
the finders was 10 account for 1T by can

ton will be accepted, for the articles
found In the tombs. so far as know, are

and are not like the tools of cannibais.
There are stone and aiabaster vases,
beads, superb worked fiints. ivory and
hone hairpins and combs, and an enor-
nous variety of pots, many decorated.
No iron or bronze is mentioned. OF course
We know that many mumIaies We're at
tackled by wolves in later days. No year
now passes without surprises from Egypt.
and this seems TO be one of the most
striking. We thus have indications how
long time. may have been required TO
reduce the whole valley of Egypt under
one domination and one culture. Mr..
GrenfeIi has also sent me copies Of some
papyri he has found, In one of which We
have for the first time the complete list
of the first ten Ptoiemies In Greek. Lepsius
had determined the list correctly from
hieroglyphic and demotic documents
early as 1852 But now for the first time
we have Equator tyil and Philopator
Neos will set down in plain Greek. To
those who are still sceptical concerning
the accuracy of demotic decipherment,
this will be welcome. especially as the
latter appears as Equator on Cyprian
coin.

lei of this condition of the dreamer and
his counterpart in the waking state I will
ask the reader to mentally take a journey
to one of our eleemosynary institutions
for the treatment of the'insane, and there
regard one of the pauper lunatics pos
sessed with the delusion that he is the
Almighty; that he can do In an instant
whatever he win. and after making ahis
astonishing statement we find him beg
humbly a trifiing favor from those TO
whom he has just proclaimed his omnipo-
tence. Such are the Inconsistencies of the
distracted Identity in the sleeping and
waking states. In the former dreams, in
the latter insanity. The poet Byron has
grasped In meter the condition of these
dreamers:
Dreams in their development have
breath,
And tears. and fortunes. and the touch of
joy;
They have weight upon our waking
thoughts.
They take a weight from Off our waking
tolls.
They do divide our being"
In comparing sleep and dreams with
hypnosis. somuambuflsm and insanity we
find that the difference is not so much In
kind as 1t Is in permanence and degree.
We have seen that in the sane the dreams
can be so incohefent, so illogical and so
utterly at variance Win the thoughts and
actions during consciousness that the
condition OF the mental operations during
such dream is Identical with the mental
operations of an insane person In the
waking state. Here, then. we have the
paradoxicaI condition of a person sane In
his waking moments, and practically in
sane in his sleep.
The striking similarity between natural
sleep and hypnosis or induced sleep must
have impressed Brair very forcibIy when
he gave TO this induced sleep the name
hypnotism fGr., hypnos-sleep). and not

servers regard as most conducive to

state. II Is described as that condition of
somnolence or ''sleepness" In which ex-
ternal impressions cease to act, the inter-
nal attention is relaxed and the weird
imagery of sleep begins to unfold itself.
and just as there is this anticipation of
ream-hailucination in the presomnial
condition, So there ID the survival of it in
the postsomnial condition. II may be re-
garded as the very earliest condition in

Immediately preceding the assertion of it's
