HASKETT SMlTnSPEAKS
ON EGYPT sHvnN THOUSAND
YEARS AGO
The Life and Conditions AZ Discovered
by Personal Nploration-Illus-
trated With Views

"A large and representative audience
assembled last night at the 7. M. c. A.
hall to listen to fascinating and inter-
esting description OF the Egypt Of seven
thousand years ago. illustrated withste-
reopticon views and given by the Rev.
Haskett Smith. the noted lecturer and
Oriental explorer For two hours the
speaker held the absorbed attention Of
his listeners. What he tells Is not in
formation gathered from books, but are
himself. and therefore thoroughly orig
inal and reliable. His illustrations also
are original, unique and Of rare beauty.
Mr.. Haskett Smith prefaced his lecture
by stating that the nineteenth century.
now drawing to a close, had shed more
light on Egyptian antiquity than any
age during the Christian era Even our
grandfathers knew comparatively little
about 1t. an dheld the idea that the age
OF the world was about 5000 years; but
recent explorations hadproved that 1000
years ago the Egyptians were living In
high state of civilization. culture and
religious enlightenment. This was
proved by their faith in the one invisible
God, their insight into future life after
death, the respect which they showed to
womanhood. and their high artistic skill.
Having described the wonderful way In
which Champollion and his successors
have recovered the ancient Egyptian
~ 80 -
which an admirable illustration was
shown. the lecturer took his audience to
the famous museum at Cairo, with its
different apartments of Ancient Egyp-
tian history; photographs Of the exca-
waited statues Of Ra Hotep, Chancellor of
the University of On. and his wife. the
Princess Nefert, who lived $500 years
ago. and the wooden statue of the clerk
OF the works of the great pyramid OF
Cheops, were exhibited as the most an
cient statuary known. A view of the obe-
lisk at On, where once stood the largest
university in the world, was next placed
on the screen. The ruined site OF the once
mighty city Of Memphis was visited, and
a graphic description Of its wonderful
cemetery, sixty square miles in extent.
was given. Pictures of the Pyramids
were presented to the audience, and a
series of intensely interesting scenes
from the walls Of the ancient tombs
served to explain the exact beliefs which
the Ancient Egyptians had with regard
to life after death. Numerous matters
OF interest were dealt with in an elo-
quent and instructive manner. and the
lecture was brought to close by All
oratorical peroration apSopos of the i'm
mortal Sphinx. Mr. Haskett Smith an
nounced that on Thursday evening next
he would give sequel to this interesting
subject under the title Of ''Monarchs and

SOME LIVELY PIANO SELLING TO
BE DONE ERE THEN
But Judging From the Past Two Days
Record There'll Be Some Hours
to Spare

To dispose of this entire stock OF pianos
and organs, now on sale, by the end of this
week we shall have to sell an average of
about nine pianos day. Every instrument
in this stock must be sold, and will be by
that time, but even if any remain unsold by
12 o'clock Saturday night, be it.one or a
dozen, the wholesale cost sale now in prog
ress will end then. once and forever
At that hour ends the fairest piano sale,
the greatest opportunity that has ever
been presented or, in our candid opinion,
ever will be presented to any living men
now in the city of Los Angeles.
| 1t costs just SO much money IN actual
material and labor to build a piano, first
class piano, and the Steinway, the Kimball
and the Weber are such in every respect.
First-class material and first-class me-
chanics labor will not be lower than it
has been for some years to come. not within
the century at least. and fine pianos cannot
be sold for less money hereafter than they
have been of late.
! For reasons heretofore explained we are
perfectly satisfied to receive the whole
sale cost of these ins trum EMS, everyone OF
which is absolutely brand new and perfect
in every detail. and this means to you
saving of many dollars in the purchase Of
a piano. it means that our prices during
this alteration sale are far below what any
retail dealer could possibly afford to sell
the same grade of pianos for; 1t means that
our prices will be found an average Of $500
/ below the regular retail selling prices, and
] in some of the fancier styles even as
much as $3.50
Do you realize that a piano which regu-
larry retails everywhere for $3.50 can be
secured here today for $11S, and the $500
styles for SAP and $156. All Of the 1915
styles are now being sold for .s195 and the
fanciest $3.50 instruments are going for
s246 and s252. Furthermore, the $3.50 cabinet
grand Upright pianos, finer than which
there is nothing to be bought anywhere in
/ this city. are row for sale at $328 and 1884,
! Terms. S25 down and $40 a month, and
organs at $40 down and S. a month.
/ Every instrument in this stock is un-
conditionally warranted for five years by
the manufacturers. as we'll as by ourselves

rails cross ties. overhead wires and
everything ready to turn on the electric
ity is a few dollars less than $4,000 per
mile. OF course the cost OF construction
of double track is not double that of
a single track, as the same poles and
overhead wires are used for both. The
trackage of the Pasadena G. Los Ange-
les railway is mostly double, but at the
cost of single track it could be duplicat-
ed today, with new material in place Of
the secondhand stuff used, with heavier
steel and better in every way for not
more than s1S0,0o0. They claim that
large cars cost them $4,000 apiece. We
have had designed for our Los Angeles
and Pasadena service a car which we
believe to be superior to the ones now
in use for the Pasadena company, and
the price quoted us by the makers is
$4,000 each. 1t is entirely safe to say
that the rolling stock of the Pasadena
company could be duplicated for less
than $4,000. Their power house equip
ment would not cost more than $50, 1000,
so that it is evident that the main line
of their plant could be replaced new for
1920, 600 and $780, 900 would be more than
a liberal estimate of all the property
Of that company. which represents a
debt variously estimated by their rep
resen ia tives al from 100000 to $800,000
Upon this they are asking the city Of
Pasadena the privilege Of earning in
terest by granting them a monopoly by
shutting out a competing line, which
proposes to save every passenger be-
tween that city and Los Angeles forty
minutes time on each round trip.
'It will be seen by this estimate, that
at least s35O,0O0 and possibly s55O00o of
the indebtedness of the Pasadena &
Los Angeles company does not represent
