There is good deal of sympathy
wasted when we offer it to the poor
Egyptians who are being robbed of
their mummies. OF course we should
be properly Mortified to find our own
cemeteries invaded and their bodies
scattered in foreign countries, but be-
tween the present representatives of
the Egyptian race and their ancient
progenitors whose mummified re-
mains we dote on for our museums
there is about as much actual kinship
in sentiment and in fact as there is
between Americans of the 10th CEN
fury and the cave bones of France
or the petriied bodies of Swiss lake
dwellers.

The pluck and heroic people Of Gal
weston are entitled to great credit for
not allowing themselves to despair or
even sink into dismay after the ap-
palling calamity which engulfed their
thriving and busy town. They are
graphing with the difficult task of re-
building Galveston and restoring its
activities, and in so doing they are
evincing dauntless courage and reso-
luton that calls out the amazement
of all Observers, and unstinted COM
mendation as well. Indeed, the whole
state of Texas has met the emergency
grandly, and the Republic is proud Of
such pluck and consistency.

DREAMED
That Mans Hand Had
Been Cut Off.
James MCGOWAN ForetoId a Ter.
rible Accident.

Mr.. James McGowan, well known
Akron man, has charge of the men on
a big sewer for which Messrs. Dan
McGarry and Chas. IL. Isbell of Ak
ron have the contract, in Findlay. The
following dispatch from that city is
therefore of especial interest in Akron.
Findlay, o., Dee. 1S.-Calvin Terrell,
Il workman on sewer construction,
had his hand cut off yesterday by get.
ting it caught in the pulley of Il trench
ing machine. The hand was severed
at the wrist.
The accident had been strangely
foreshadowed by james McGowan,
foreman of the work. For the past
three nights McGowap has been awak-
ened by terrible dreams that one of
his men had lost hand in the works.
He spoke of the reoccurring dreams
this morning to his men and cautioned
them to exercise care. He was at din.
ner when Il messenger called him and
before the latter could utter word
McGowan eXcitedly asked him the
name of the man that had lost his
hand.

to the interests of the Board, IL the
success of such legislation made the
expenditure of money necessary.
Recommendation after recommends
tion was turned down and innovations
and seeming luXuries were frowned
at, while the Board exercised u policy
OF eliminating all possible expense.
Gradually they relented, however,
and since then the same recommends
tions that were turned down last sum-
mer have been placed unOstentatious-
ly before the Board by members and
committees and have been passed.
At Tuesday nights meeting, it was
recommended by Mr.. Kingsbury that
100 chairs be purchased, for use in the
Perkins Normal Training school. Mr..
Kingsbury stated that they were to
be used for the assembling Of pupils
or teachers, for general instruction,
and Mr.. Gibbons added that they were
for the use of visiting parents.
This brought out the expression by
Mr.. Flower of his opinion of the
Boards ideas of economy and he pre-
sented the differences in the degrees
of necessity between this matter and
others which had been overruled by
the Board in such wise that 1t was
lost when put ito vote.

A NIGHT
OF CARousAL
Followed by the Death Of Two
Couples.

Columbus, o., Dec. 1S,-In adjoining
rooms filled with the fumes of chlor-
oform, the dead bodies of two men
and two women were found last night
in boarding house at No. 81 East
Russell st. The doors of the rooms,
which communicate with each 9TH
er, We're securely locked, as they had
been all day, and the keyholes and
every crevice which might have ad-
mitted the outer air were carefully
closed with rags.
The dead are:
Pearl Warner, aged %. who fol
some time has been employed as Sec
ond cook at the Manhattan restau-
rant on High st.
Sherman dollhouse, cab driver.
Louise Kline, aged IS years, third
cook at the restaurant.
John Jacobs, the chief cook.
The two couples went Monday morn
ing to the boarding house, which is
owned by George Purcell, and, repre-
senting themselves as married people,
asked if they might repG permanently

cOmmodations were given them, and
the two men and their reputed wives

PASS
Sent to Hon. VIM.
BuChtel.
Representative Ele ct
Experiences.
The First Great Joy Of Office
Holding.

Hon. VIM. Buchtel is but beginning
to discover the benefits and honors
which attach to the Office Of Represcn-
tative in the General Assembly, to
which he was elected last fall. We'd
nesday Mr.. Buchtel received from
Board of Public Works pass emitting
him to walk on the towing paths Of
any of the canals Of the state, and
good also on all boats and dredges of
the State Board except steam dredges
Nos. l and @.
The pass is so burdened with con-
dtions, however, that Mr.. Buchtel
doubts whether he shall reap much
benefit from its possession. 1t re-
quires, among other things, that in
walking on the tow path the holder
must invariably and without fail turn
to the left when passing the motive
power of all approaching craft. The
fact that bicycles with lamp, bell.
and lunch basket attached" will be
carried free. will hardly balance this
anu puNh
tel does not expect to buy bicycle
before next fall at the earliest.
The pass shows that the Ohio canals
have total length of 594 miles. and
it is stated that Mr.. Buchtel will be
allowed to fish in any of them, sum-
mer or winter, but must himself as
sumo all risk of accidents.
The bit of neatly printed pasteboard
which promises all these liberties is
more imposing than railroad ticket
across the continent. 1t bears the
signatures of Hon. w. G. Johnston,
president of the State Board; VIM. II.
Mclean, the Boards secretary, and
Chas. +. Perkins, engineer of the
State Board.
AS an additional guarantee. Mr..
Buchtel will ask Capt. VIM. Hiltabidle,
superintendent of this division of the
Ohio canal, to also attach his sigma
ture.
