EXPLORATION IN EGYPT,

AS to the actual workmen that I en-
ploy-who number some two hundred or
two hundred and fifty men-these are all
from the village CT Sakkara itself. The
men are paid at an average rate of rs
confines a day for each digger Children
receive 80 centimes, and are utilized in
carrying earth in baskets, which they
poise on their heads. To be sure, this
process is superannuated one. But the
Egyptian fellah abides by it, and any
improvements on it are dismissed by
him with scorn. There is a gain in pic
turesqueness through it, assuredly: for
nothing is more curious than to watch
these files of children fastening on and
ON, like ants to an ant-hill. to empty
their baskets at the place assigned; while
at the same time the carts, tilted over
by the chantiers, remain quite useless.
But the most improved methods of such
work seem only to bear testimony to the
prodigious strength of primitive means

selves We're erected, and the greatest edi-
fees of antiquity brought into existence
The fellah workman withal is industrious;
he subsists on little bread and water

Ogden, May 8.

Yesterday morning, at 5:15, in this
city at the home of her son, Mark
Hall, Mrs. Johannah Hall died. She
had attained the age of SO years one
month and seven days, having been
born in Goschen township, New Hamp-
shire, April 3, 1897. She died with
hardly a struggle. In very truth she
fell asleep, ana so passed peacefully
away
Up to almost the last she retained her
faculties unclouded. Some months
ago a short biography OF this re-
markable woman was given in The
Herald's Ogden department and with
it mention of the remarkable power,
strength of mind and body which she
still retained, although nearly CEN
tury old. Later, on April 4, an account
OF a family reunion held in honor of
her birthday the day before. In this
anniversary festivity the lady took the
liveliest interest and moved about
with her accustomed vigor. She con-
tinued in her usual health up to about
four weeks ago, when one day she ap-
peared drowsy and lay down in sound
peaceful sleep in the middle of the day
"a custom hitherto almost unknown
to her. From that time on she con-
day, though there were no otner I'M
usual symptoms.
During her waking hours she con-
tinued to read readily without glasses
and converse freely. She, herself,
realized that she was dying and dis
cussed the matter calmly and in a
manner showing an absolute fearless
ness Of death.
a few days ago she rallied again and
the drowsy symptoms seemed passing
away but they returned again. She
grew weaker and weaker and passed
quietly from sleep to death yesterday
morning.
Numerous relatives have been noti-
fed and will be in attendance.
AT the former family reunion on
April 3, there were representatives of
five generations present and about
forty of her direct descendants.
The funeral services will be held to-
morrow Sunday at o'clock in the
Second ward meeting house.
