HUGE UMBR ELLA
Will Be Built to Protect the Great
Egyptian Sphinx.

It is now reported by various
archaologists that danger threatens
the great Egyptian Sphinx. For
thousands of years this great monu-
ment mas withstood tempests in all
other onslaughts of time, yet now.
according to recent reports, it is
surely beginning to decay. and unless
prompt step are taken to save it from
destruction it is very probable that it
will within few years be dethroned
from the position IT has occupied so
proudly for centuries.
The experts say that the terrible
sand storms during the last quarter OF
century have gradually worn awav
portions of the rock which supports
the scupltured figure, and it is only a
question of time when the ruin will De
complete. The Sphinx itself will not
suffer, however, for it is fashioned out
of solid rock.
A day or two after the doelful news
reached France few leading arch@-
ologists met for the purpose of devils
ing some effective method of saving
the Sphinx. and after long debate
they decided that the best thing to do
would be to erect huge umbrella over
the munument. They agreed that
only In this way could the Sphinx
be protected against the destructive
sand storms which sweep periodically
over the desert.
A thorough investigation has shown
that these storms more than anything
else are running the monument. and
eff these can only be warded off. = say
the archaologists, there is no reason
why the Sphinx should not last until
the end of the world. T"
If an umbrella is constructed for
this purpose it will unquestionably be
the largest in the world. for the re-
cumbent man headed lion which 1T IL
designed to protect IL 1903 feet 9ls
lncehs in length. Such an umbrella
would have to be fashioned out OF
rock. -Philadelphja Record.

UNION MACHINISTS STRIKE.
Small in Numbers, But May Have
Political Significance.

Nashville, Oct. 21.-The union
machinists employed in the foundry OF
Stewart e. Bruckner, struck yesterday.
About fifteen men went out. They
recently made lengthy demand. ask
ing for higher wages. shorter hours
and recognition of the union. This
was not acceded to and the strike is
result.
The union machinists at the Union
Machine Shops went out Thursday OF
last week, for a similar cause. No
other shops are affected The men
MAKE the statement that they will
win their point. and that the union
will be recognized. Members of the
firm declined to make any statement
in regard to the matter.
While the strike of itself is a small
affair, it has an unusual interest on
account of a political phase which may
develop. Mr.. W. A. Stewart, one of
the members Of the firm, was Satur-
day nominated for State Senator by
the Davidson County Democratic con-
vention. and his attitude in handling
the strike in the event of his holding
out against the demands of the union,
may cut considerable figure in the
campaign.
