Curious Unanimity of Names for Dom
keys Found at Sakharah.

Harper's Magazine-That first dom
key ride will never be forgotten. A
chance acquaintance who had just
done" the river had told us when we
arrived at Sakharah to be sure and
pick out Fair Resale as the best dom
key in the place, but of course when
the time came we were only too thank
full to find ourselves safely on any dom
keys at all, in the midst of that
screeching Bedlam. We ambled
along, and the donkey boy-a grinning,
acknowledgement youth-began to air
his three words of English for our
benefit, so that finally we made bola
to ask him the name CO one of the
steeds Picture our surprise when
the answer came, prompt as rhyme"
He Fair Rosalie!" Proud was no
word for it. At the greatness thrust
upon him the fortunate rider sat up
very straight and stiff, waiting for a
chance to parade his luck, when a
neighbor at table-a stocky youth from
THE states'-hove alongside, and sang
out, Il say, I've got peach of a dom
key-her names Fair Rosalie-ain't
she a corker?" We were aghast, al
most personally insulted by his silly
mistake, but, after all, he was more to
be pitied than snubbed, and-he had
pushed on ahead, while in his place a
putting, blowing little Englishman In
check riding breeches pressed hard for
the right of way. "Aw-by Jove-
jolly fools these Arabs" he drawled in
voice of serious objection. 'Boy says
my donkey's named Fair Rosalie-
feastly amusing, because-er-can't
be, you know" and he, too, was lost
in the crowd.
| We're we going mad, or-no; quite in
another direction, for before he knew
1t Fair Rosalie's rider found himself
prone in the dust beside Fair Rosalie.
while the donkey boy explained that
ne had only twisted her tail to make
her go faster, and white-haired

spectacles bent over the sufferer and
asked II he We're hurt. The unfortu-
nate one mounted and went on, but
the professor still lowered protecting

ing: i have been greatly interested in
studying the poetic strain which one
tlnds so prominently exemplified in the
eastern races, and in these people of
Egypt 1t seems curiously interviewer
with the most apparently material side
OF their existence. Could there be
anything more charming, for instance,

Scotch Water Power Syndicate is peer

can imprison at lofty levels and so gen
crate electric power. From Loeb Sloy
757 feet above Loeb Lomond, it is go.
ing to get $500 horsepower, and at
Ardlui, higher up, it proposes to get
further energy. Even a modest stream
that drops several hundred feet may
be a source of power.

What troubled me most was my in
ability to get sleep when the chance came
and most irritating sensitiveness of my
whole nervous system, growing out of
the irregularities and anxieties con-
nected with my daily work. Three or four

which she appears as Catherine
the Great of Russia. Like most
Russian plays it deals with poiit-
zeal conspiracies that afford plen-
ty of opportunity for thrilling
situations, but it also has a lighter
side which practically comprises
the first two acts Of the play, and
which contains much of genuine
and very enjoyable comedy. Mil
dred Holland as Empress Gather
inc, dominates the entire play, and
most agreeably so, for she is in
teresting, if wilful, sort of a char
acter. During half the play she is
a romping, devil-may-care girl
unbroken to the harness of court
etiquette. During the other half
she is the great sovereign, with a
due appreciation of her rank and
prerogatives, and commanding
admiration by her majesty and
dignifed benevolence.
