MUMMIEs OF BIRDS.
Thousands Of Them Sent from Egypt
to the Lyons Museum

to the Lyons Museum
More than a thousand mummies Of
birds sent from different parts Of
Egypt by Prof. Maspero have been
opened a, the Lyons museum, accord
ing to the Scientific American. A
considerable number OF these con-
tanned only the remains of very young
birds, debris of feathers and bones,
but it was possible to obtain and study
the skeletons of more than 500 birds,
which were well preserved. Some Of
these were in such a perfect state of
preservation that they we're reeog-
nized by a simple examination Of the
feathers, but most of them. were de-
termined after the skeleton. The
mummies form two classes Of & dis
tinet appearance. The first includes
the ibis and the second the birds Of
prey. The mummies come from the
tombs Of Sakkarah, Roda, Kom-0m-
DO, Gizeh and Others. AT Kom-0mbo
they are Of the Roman epoch and at
Gizeh Of the Ptolemaic. The birds Of
prey are mummifed either singly or
in masses of 20 to 80, or even 40, of
all species. The single birds, eagles,
hawks or falcons, have been general
ly plunged in a bath Of liquid bitumen
and then wrapped in bands Of cloth.
This gives them a form resembling
that of human mummies. The birds
of prey which are mummified in
groups have the form Of a cigar
shaped bundle from four to five feet
long and 16 inches wide. The birds
have not all been mummiied fresh,
but some bear the traces of an ad-
yanced decomposition. No doubt
such a great number Of birds Of prey
could not be secured in one day nor
by one person, but it is probable that
they were brought one by one and at
several days interval by the inhab-
itants ofthe samevillage. When each
had brought his offering the package
was made up with bird Of prey placed
in the middle, accompanied by anoth
er kind Of bird, such as a cuckoo or
several swallows, and sometimes a
crocodile's tooth was added. The
whole was then sprinkled with BIZ
tumen, then tightly wrapped in wide
bands Of cloth. Upon this were laid
anumber Of long palm rods about the
thickness Of the finger, equally dis
posed all around, to give stiffness, and
oyer this came the last wrapping of
cloth. The offering thus prepared
was carried in the neighboThood of
the temple whose divinity it was de-
sired to conciliate. As to the mum
mics of the ibis, these we're always
prepared with a single bird, wrapped
in cloth bands or preserved in rough
vases ofred terra Gotta. In the former
case the mummy was covered with q
network Of threads which were inter-
laced so as to form different orna-
ments. In other cases the ibis was
wrapped in simple bands without or
namentation, but the head, instead Of
being placed in its natural position,
} is bent down upon the breastbone and
: the long curved beak reaches to the
feet. Some of the mummies which
! have externally the form Of an ibis
/. and especially those with thread orna.
ments and two colors Of cloth, light
and dark brown, are counterfeits and
: the interior is filled with all kinds Of
material, rags, pieces ofwood orfeath
ers, with two or three pieces Of bricl

Work of Greater Salem Com

What Has Been AccOmpliShed
in Eight Months Time

An inspection of the finances and
records of the Greater Salem Com
mercial Club reveals that the organi-
zation has been an active one. It's val
lie to the business and industrial life
of the Capital City has substantial ev.
idence. That it has proved an effec-
tive commercial agency for promot-
ing the every interest of the commu-
nifty, no one questions, and that IL
will in the future increase in useful
ness is a natural conclusion when the
success of the past is taken into con
sideration. During its short life, the
club has performed a valuable service
in encouraging the production of fax,
as staple crop, by securing the loca-
tion at Salem of a plant for perform
ing the initiatory work of manufactur'
ing fax fibre, that promises to even.
tually become large linen mill of in.
calculable worth to the entire state.
In addition to this, Salem and sur
rounding country, through the agency
of this organization, has been adver.
tised to an extent never before known.
The Greater Salem Commercial
Club was organized on the evening OF
October 30th. 1t now has an active
membership of 19S The club has sus.
pended regular meetings until Sep.
tember when the work in hand will
be resumed and pushed forward vig-
orously. In the meantime, Secretary
judah has waived all compensation,
but is attending to all correspondence
and affairs CONCERNING the club, that
require immediate attention.
In its eight months life, the club
has collected in fees and subscrip.
tlons the sum Of $l1O3O5. of which
an unexpended balance of about 5000
remains in the treasury. A statement
of some Of the principal expenditures

she entertained a small company of
young people in honor of her guest,
Miss Gertrude O'Brien, of Albany. Az
ter a period of social converse, the
young people were favored with some
vocal selections by the Misses Jones
and Prof. Clinton Russell, and Miss
Church gave a number of pleasing in
strumental pieces Dancing followed,
and the very best time was the natural
result under such favorable auspices.
Refreshments were served, and 50 de-
