They are under his feet, hence forward, until eternity. What the splendid soil brings forth I have had represented in this picture, to offer it to Father Armen in his Temple as memorial for all time." The drawings follow, and very wonderful they are. Another inscrip- tion tells how Thothmes imported all the new plants found in his Ethiopan cam paigns. So enthusiastic was this great man in "collecting" that four new birds gave him more pleasure than all the in- demnity exacted from the vanquished, as he himself declared. But Thothmes was only one in a long series of monarchs who did the like.

THE VANDERBILT FHEIRo

Illus took meals at his fathers table and frequently visited home. Their relations were fair-that Is the best word!
 "Tell you Q little about the will? How can L When the will was read we promis- ed each other and ourselves not to divulge it's contents.

gardening. At a later date. after the de- structons of Tyre, Alexander commissioned his favorite Hephasion to seek out a mem- Der of the royal house of Sdon willing to rule the distracted and ruined country
 Hephaestion chose one belonging to a branch so decayed that he had to get his livelihood by growing vegetables for the market: and we are told expressly that he proved himself an admirable king. There was an instance curiously like this only the other day. When the rajah of some native state had been deposed for abomnable con- duct, and all his near kinsfolk appeared to be equally infamous. Sir Lepel Griffin re- ceNed instructions from the Indian govern ment to find a decent scion of the family
 if possible. He himself has told the story of his search. At length the nobles and genealogists traced out distant relative. whose pedigree was beyond dispute; but his forefathers had succumbed to a palace intrigue and fallen into the deepest pow erty. In fact, as the reader will hear with out surprise he was a market gardener. The Indian government put him the throne, and. says Sir Lepel Griffin. it has never repented the act. For the first time in living memory that Rajput state is gov erned with intelligence and honesty.
 To return to the antique word It must not be thought that an Oriental garden in the earliest recorded time was a wilder ness of hot-herbs and medical "simples. {" as in the days of our barbarous forerath- CTS when the name was invented. The craft must have been scientific already, perhaps to a degree which will startle us when the facts become known-as they may, probably enough. Professor Sayce goes so far as to assert roundly. in deal ing with the reign of Tiglath Pilser I. ''in Nineveh he established botanic garden. '' And that monarch came to the throne about 1130 B. c. Only a specialist of the highest rank could venture to criticise a statement of fact made by Professor Sayce, but it seems possible that he uses the term ''bo- tanc garden in a sense in which botanists are unaceustomed-being less familiar with their science. perhaps. than with the cunei- form. Assuredly, however, Tiglath was an enthusiastic "collector." In the annals we read: "As for the cedar. the llkkarin tree and the almug, from the countries I have conquered these trees, which none of the kings, my fathers, that Were before me had planted, took, and in the gardens of my land I set, and by the name of garden I called them. What was not in my land took, and I made the gardens of Assy1ria. .' Passages to the same effect, almost in the same words, excepting the species of plant or tree, might be given from the records of every Assyrian monarch.
 And not from those records only. Com pare. as the learned say, the inscriptions of conquering Pharaohs-Thothmes H.,

 MT. Vanderbilt died suddenly and it was necessary to read his will in order to as- certain the division of the estate, After the will was read we decided to cable to Alfred to come home immediately.
 'Does that mean that Cornelius, the eld- est, is cut off with a pittance? Not by any means, but when man comes into a for tune he ought to come home to manage it. That is all.

GARDENING IN
 OLD EGYPT

 $500 B. C.
From the London Standard.

We look to Egypt for the beginning of all things, but it may be asserted with tolera- ble confidence that there is no specification of handicraft there earlier than 3S00 B. C. But at this date lived Sharrukin, Lord of Agade in Accad on the Persian gulf. The statue of this monarch was discovered some years ago, with a long inscription, dictated by himself, giving an account Of his career. It bravely confesses that he did not know who his father was, but his mother was princess. The appearance of a baby under such conditions is not ap- proved in the humbest family. To avoid unpeasantness the lady put her offspring into a basket of rushes, coated with bitu- men, and set it afloat upon the river And,
 so says Sharrullin, "the river bore me along; to Akld the Water Carrier it bore me. Akki the Water Carrier in the good ness of his heart lifted me up. As his own

 child Akki the Water Carrier raised me- He made me his gardener. And as a gar dener the goddess Istar loved me-, etc. In short under her protection he rose in the world, fought and conquered, and made himself the paramount King of Accad.
 Here we find several facts of high inter- est. Gardeners were so well established" as they themselves would put it, in 3S00 E. C., that water carrier employed one, and so highly esteemed that goddesses did not disdain to keep company with them. Mythology confirms this view, it would seem that the great goddesses had an amiable weakness for gardeners-without prejudice to other mortals equally attract i've when such could be found. Gisdhubar, the Chaldean Hercules, was of the lat ter; but his virtue was as adamantine as his biceps, and he sternly rebuked the ladys forwardness. Flow many poor fel- lows have you beguiied?" he cried, for we have a report of the conversation. Ruth lessy the strong man enumerated her vic tins. "Moreover''-this is the one that n- terests us-''thou didst love Isullanu, the gardener of thy father, who was ever rais- ing for thee costly plants"
 In another version of the myth the name of this sacred horticulturist is Sisigsig, which means by interpretation. "He who malleth green the living .nings"-evldently a skillful and conscientious person until this wicked coquette. a prehistoric Clara We're de We're, "broke his heart TOT pas tme Gisdhubar does not go into de- tails, but we are to suppose that he lost the place and the gentleman refused him characterization. probably, he took to drink. It will be observed however, that Isullanu, or Ssigsig. was in the employ of Istar's father. And Istar was the most powerful of goddesses. the supreme pa troness of conquering Assyria. familiar to us at this day under the Grecized form "Astarte." Her parent, therefore, must surely have been a first class god-at least he would have had his domcie in heaven. And he kept a gardener there. Is it not rightly said that this is the most venerable of professions? It was nursery of kings in the early time. Dealing with the pass age we have just cited. Professor Sayce re- marked. in his Hilbert lectures on the Myth of Gsdhubar. that Isullanu was "probably the prototype of Sargon, the gardener loved by Istar. but. unlike Gisd- huhar. proud of it." We cannot follow this reference. Sargon was usurper, man of low birth. who restored the glory of As syria-it is not commonly known that he was a gardener. But assuredly Professor Sayce is right The very greatest of these mighty kings. however.

Depew did not add that young Cornelius. in spite of being a married man of three years, had just completed a post graduate course at the college and was preparing to take an other.
 "WiM there be any material change in the plan by which the Vanderbilt system aims to collect in one great system all the great railroads of the United States? Well, know of no such plan, but if there exists sueh a one, it will be carried out in spite of MT. Vander5ilts death.
 Would Cornelius submit if his father were to disinherit him, or would he contest the will? That is a question:" said' MT. Depew with twinkle,' that I cannot an- swer. I do not know exactly what you mean by disinheriting. It is seldom done

 .When will Alfred Vanderbilt arrive home? Oh, it is uncertain. I should say about the middle of October, maybe soon- CT. He will abandon his companions who are taking the round-theworld trip with him and will hurry home. The message of his fathers death reached him in Japan.
