RAMSEY'S ULTIMATUM.
Position of the wabash Railway I'm
Regard to the Wage Controversy.

CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-President Ramsey. of
the Wabash Railroad, issued a statement
to-day defining the company's position In
relation to the poll taken by the trainmen
and other employees of the Wabash system
for or against strike to secure an advance
in wages of u and Is per cent. on the jan
uary, 1902 schedule. 1t is accompanied by
a schedule of compensation, which PRO-
vides that the trainmen of the Wabash
west of the Mississippi river. after March
/, shall receive about per cent. more a
month on runs of over 1000 miles than those
in service east of the river. This. Mr.. Ram
sey explains, on the ground that all east
ern tariffs are on much lower basis than
western tariffs and that east of the Mis-
sissippi the Wabash is in competition with
Eastern lines.
In conclusion Mr.. Ramsey says that
whenever the Wabash Companys Compel
itors advance above its rates east of the
Mississippi the Wabash will meet the ad-
vance and not before, and that If its train
men vote in favor of carrying the advance
of the western division least of the river
on Wabash lines or strike, then a strike
must occur.

creation. The Egyptians had a belief that
the gods when they came TO earth assumed
the forms of animals. Most Egyptian del
ties are depicted with the heads. though
not usually with the bodies, of certain ami
mails deemed sacred. Horus has a hawk
head. Sebak a crocodile's. the Goddess Bast
eats and so on. Among the deities was
one, Set, whose head was like that of no
known animal. This Set was the brother
and murderer of the Cooking Osiris. whose
son Horus he also attempted to destroy.
BY putting side by side an alto-relief of
the head of the God Set and picture on
the same scale of the okapis head IL is
evident that the Englishman was not the
first discoverer OF the okapi. but that this
animal was well known to the Egyptians
thousands of years ago.
