MATRlMONY IN Y
The Curious Wedding Professions That
Are To BE Seen In Cairo.

~oiho
AS you look on Of your hotel window
in Cairo, you will see a native musician
saunterlng by, twanging the lutte of the
country; then a sound like the tinkling
of baby cymbals informs you that the
sherbetly is going his round, with his
huge glass jar slung at his side, from
which he disponses TO the unwary)
sweet, sticky drinks of ~licorice juice or
orange strip in the brass saucers which
he perpotually clinks in his hand. Late
at night the sounds Of eastern life in
wade your pillow. The distant ~throbbing
of the naggarah tells you that a wedding
procession is making its tour, and if you
have the curiosity to get up and sally
out you will be rewarded by one of the
characteristic sights Of Cairo, in which
old and new are oddly blended. Prob
ably a circumcision is combined with
the wedding to saye expense, and the
procession will be headed by the bar
ber's sign, a wooden frame raised aloft,
followed by two or three gorgeously ca
parisoned camels-regular stage proper
ties hired out for such OCCasiOns--carry-
ing drummers, and leading tho way for
a series Of carriages craInmed with little
boys, each holding a neat white hand
kerchlef to his mouth to keep out the
devil and the evil eye. Then comes a
closed carriage covered all over with a
big cashmere shawl, held down firmly
at the sides by brothers and other rela-
tons of the imprisoned bride; then more
carriages and "a general crowd of SYM
pathiaerS, More rarely the bride is borne
in a cashmere covered litter swung be-
tween two camcls, fore and aft; the
hind camel must tuck his head under
the litter, and is probably quite as I'M
comfortable as the bride, who runs q
fair chance Of seasickness in her rolling
~palanquin.
In the old days the bride walked
through the streets under Il canopy car-
ried by her friends, Int this is how
quite out of fashion, and European car
riagoS are rapidly ousting even the
camel filters. But the cashmere shawl
and the veil Will not soon be abandoned.
The Egyptian woman is, at least in
public, generally modest. She detects q
strangers glance with magical rapidity,
even when to all appearance looking the
other way, and forthwith the veil is
pulled closer over her mouth and nose.
When she meets yOu face to face, she
does not drop her big eyes in the absurd
fashion of western mOdesty. She calmly
turns them away from you. 1t is much
more cutting-really. Saturday Re-
view.

For the last two or three days thers
has been considerable talk about gettip,

for other reasons the national holiday

most, in this city for several years. Al
few leading citizens and business men
have been figuring during the last few
days on getting up a big celebration
which will draw the people from sur,
rounding towne and furnish them with
holiday after the old-fashioned style
The idea has proved popular whereve,|
1T has been preached and several busi.

and to arrange for excursions from Let6.

His VIGILANCE REWARDED,
The Story of u Man who Was Prepared
For Eoutpads,

There is a man in Buena Park who
has always been afraid OF being robbed
by footpads. A few weeks ago he decided
that he would prepare himself to defend
his property and person if attacked. So
he purchased a revolver-not an Ordi-
nary revolver, but a long barreled one,
the sort the cowboys carry out west.
For several nights he carried the gun,
and the assurance with which he walked
no doubt frightened the footpads, for
they left him unmolested. He was
pleased with the sense of security he felt
from the humping of this weapon
against his leg, and his fears were quiet
ed until m night not long ago.
The sidewalks were slippery, and he
was picking his way along toward his
home, when a mar bumped against him.
The offender was profuse in his apollo
gies as he struggled to regain his foot
hold.
ut was purely accidental, l assure
you, sir, =" said he. "Certainly, certain
ly," replied the Buena Park man, 'no
harm done" and they separated.
A moment later he felt for his watch,
it was gone. Then he felt for his gun;
it was safe, and it's size and weight gave
him courage. He turned and started on
the run in tho direction the man had
taken, and before he had gone a block
overlook him. He grabbed him by the
collar with his left hand, and, sticking
the pistol i'll his face, commanded him
to give up the watch.
"All right, all right; don't shoot"
said the trembling man, as he handed
out a watch, and, breaking away, ran
down the street as fast as his legs would
carry him.
III teach you fOotpads a thing or
two" shouted the Buena Park man, but
there was no response, and putting the
watch in his pocket he started toward
home. AT each step he grew more and
more indignant at the state Of society
that permitted such criminals as pick
pockets and footpads, and when he
reached home he was very angry.
"What makes you look 50 fcrocious?"
were his wife's first words.
"Been held up; fellow took my
watch, but | got it back again, he said.
"Nhat arc you talking about? You
left your watch at home this morning."
said She us she took from his pocket the
that belonged to the other man.

Wales IN LUCK
His Horse PersimmOn Wins the Blue
Ribbon of the Great Derby
by a Neck.
A RACE WELL WORTH SEEING
1t Has Been Many Years Since a
Prince Captured the Historic
Trophy.

EPSON, Eng. June -Persimmon, the
prince of Wales colt, at 5 to l against
him, won the derby today, Leopold de
R~othschild's st, Frusquin was second.
and II. II. Beddington's Earwig was
third. Persimmon's was the best derby
time since 1867. This is the first time
in 1OS years that a prince of Wales won
the blue ribbon of the turf. In 1888, the
prince, who subsequently, reigned as
George ", won the derby with Sir
Thomas, a fayorite, and it may be men
toned as q coincidence that there were
eleven starters then, and eleven horses
ran in the race today.
The horses we're sent away at 1923
p. H., Bay Renald taking the lead for
the first 200 yards, with Teufel second,
and Earwig third, st. Frusquin and
Persimmon last. After the quarter-mile
post had been passed Gulistan went to
the front and st. Frusquin and PersimE
mon crept up at the top of the hill, At
the halfway mark Bradwardlne was
first, Teufel and Persimmon following. A
quarter Of a mile from home st. Frusquin
was first, closely followed by Persimmon,
and then took place one of the most mag

most to the finish line; in fact, the finish
was so close as to cause much comment.
Only the judge was in position to tell
accurately which horse was winner, and
many persons thought that st. Frusquin
had crossed the line ahead. Poraim-
mon, however, won by about a neck, two
separating st. Frusquin and
Earwig, and Teutel was fourth. The

TAKE CARE OF THE CHEST.

bored. Keep it well raised and your head,
spine and shoulders will inyoluntarily
assume their proper positions without
any effort on your part. The cry from
parents and teachers used to be, Throw
your shoulders back! = But this mistaken
notion is now completely exploded. The
shoulders have nothing to do with cor
rect posture. 1t is all the chest, and its
elevation or depression will regulate the
rest Of the body. The chest is the seat
OF all things spiritual, elevated and en-
noDIlng. Bring it into prominence and
you bring into prominence the best
qualities Of yonr nature.
cit has been said that whatever psy-
Geological attribute is most marked in
a lnman being is correspondingly most
marked in his physical being. If he's a
glutton, his stomach is most in evil
dence; il a scholar on brain worker, his
head is sure to be thrust vel. forward T.:
but IT he preserves a proper intellectual
balance he walks with his chest III ad-
vance Of the rest Of his body.
at is curious, too, how one may
really influence his own mental condi-
ton in this way, Just try and see how
impossible it is to say, ooh, how happy
| aml with snnken chest and spent
breath. One ~involuntarily lifts his chest
and takes a good long breath when he
says anything optimistic and brave, for
ii he doesn't he might just as we'll say
Have mercy On us miserable sinners. ,
The effect is the same. There is no surer

SALEM LOCAL DELAYED.-For al
most the first time since Salem local
was placed in operation, she was late
last night. The cause of the delay
was hot-bOx making the train about
thirty minutes late in reaching Salem.
The engine had just been taken from
the car shop at Portland where it had
been thoroughly oyerhauled and the
box which contained one of the
engine wheels became quite hot owing
TO friction.
