 His resentment of employees of the Oriental who would assist him to board the cars is unmistakable. He ap- breaches with lowered head and feeble steps, but at the first evidence of inn piled aid he becomes indignant
 Slowly, but with much concern he takes his seat and leans from the side of the car to wave a handkerchief to the woman who waves back from a bow window. He returns generally at 4:3O p. m and the kerchief of the wife waves a welcoming. That is, it waves when she is strong enough to be moved to the window.
 When the senator sees the fluttering there he walks the broad plank path slowly, but cheerfully. When it is not fluttering his stride is uneven and his head is bent like a man who suffers in anticipation.

 The male population of Scottsdale has
 been greatly reduced, several of the

MT. and Mrs. Gates have proven themselves rare host and hostess in the selection of congenial company for their outing, and So providing for their comfort as to cOunteract the weariness and hardship or such overland journeys.
 Many amusing experiences are relat- ed. one of which was a dinner given the party at a Flagstaff hotel by Mr.Chas Woil the affable young man of the company. On reaching Flagstaff late Saturday evening and opening waiting mail, MT. Well read the announcement of the engagement of a sister, which so filled him with joy that he needs must celebrate in some suitable way. Noth- ing short of an elaborate dinner could relieve his pent up enthusiasm. Unfor- tunately, however, banking hours were over, his pocket-book empty and change and he were strangers in the city. All things are possible in love, they say, and so it proved in this case, although the love affair was another fellows. After much racking of brain during the night hours the matter took shape. Well ordered a first-claS5 spread and at the appointed hour con- ducted his friends to the hotel. They observed that he carried his gun with him, which seemed q little bit unusual, the day being the Sabbath and there seeming to be no reason to anticipate a personal attack as they passed along the street. he young man, however, kept his own counsel, and after helping his friends bounitfully to all the good things at hand, and the feast being over, he ushered them into the parlor while he remained behind for an inter view with the laAdlady. He showed her his pocket-book \ nd then presented his gun. The good ilady heard his story and then looked into his honest face, and his case wak won, and he bore back t. camp h firearms and wait ed for the morn Nhg." A. K. B.

CHICAGO's EGYPTIAN SCHOLAR.
The Kaiser has Appointed Him to Su
 perintend an Egyptian Dictionary.

The Kaiser has Appointed Him to Su-
 perintend an Egyptian Dictionary.
 Dr. James Henry Breasted, the pro- lessor of Egyptology in, the Chicago University, has just been commissioned by Emperor William, of Germany, to superintend the composition and pub cation of an Egyptian dictionary. This important work will consume fifteen years in the making, and the Chicago Egyptologist has been commissioned for only one year. This term, however, may be extended at its expiration. Prof. Breasted is a recognized authority in his speciality and in the Semetic lan- guages. About a year ago Dr. Ermann, the celebrated German Orientalist, re- quested Prof. Breasted to join him in the work on the dictionary, and since that time he has been busy with his share of the labor imperial recognition of which is now seen in the emperor's appointment. The American Egyptol- ogist is a Chicagoan, born and reared. He is a graduate of the city highschool and an honor man of the Northwest ern University class of 1888. Soon af- ter leaving Northwestern he entered Yale, where he took up the Spanish languages. There he studied under Dr. w. R. Harper. who encouraged him in his work of Egyptology. He was made a fellow of the University of Chicago when that institution was founded. He then went abroad and after three years study in his line he returned to fill the chair of Egyptology, which he found waiting for him. He has earned a de- served reputation in his line among European scholars, and was secretary of the Psychological section of the in- ternational congress of Orientalfats held in Rome last fall.-Chicago Her aid.
