The Valley of the Nile

Is no richer than the fertile coun-
try traversed by the Illinois Cen
trail railroad in the States of
Tennessee, Mississippi and Lou

awakened to this fact and are
rapidly settling here, for they ap-
preciate the fact that the soil,
crops, climate, water, markets,
etc, are all that could be desired
and they are buying land while
the prices are yet very low. Write

NO ACTIVE BOY
FORCED TO LOAF
so SAYS DEPUTY LABOR COMMITS
sIONER JOSEPH ELLIS.
He Declares That the Apprentice sys-
tenn as Used by Labor Unions Does
Not Affect the Opportunities of a
Lad Who Has Ambition.

'"rhe boys who are idle on the
streets and in the usual loafing places,
or who are shooting craps in the
alleys, are boys who do not want to Il
work." said Joseph II. Ellis, deputy
labor commissioner, this morning. Mr..
Ellis declaration was called forth by
the letter from c. D. Barnum, relat-
ing to the present union labor appren-
tice system, which was recently pub
lished in T J o r n a |.
II know whereof speak when say
that there is plenty of work Of all
kinds for boys and young men to do
in this city and that, as far as in
dustrial conditions affect boys or
young men, this city is better off than
almost any other in the country.
"It is not true that the labor unions
shut the boys out thru the use Of the
apprentice system. There is room for
| a large number of good boys in the
unions; where the unions will not adj
nit more apprentices the employers
have plenty of ways of taking on
4 more help. Sometimes the extra men
learn the trades; sometimes they are
taken on as wagon drivers, and there
are a lot of other ways.
IF the trades do not attract the
unemployed young man there are
many other opportunities Every de-
partment store in this city is looking
for men from II to 20 years Of age.
The pay may not be large, but the
| demand is there. The unions are not
materially to blame if all the boys
and young men are not employed.
IT will admit that there are hun
dreds who are not In school Who
should be, but they are boys we can
not get hold Of because Of legal limi-
tations. The Adams truant school is
| II LIT hi
| else. The average boy hates to go
to that truant school, and rather than
go there takes to the street. There
he is beyond our control.
you can go on any school day and
find from twenty-five to thirty boys
shooting craps back of the postoffice,
or loafing around the dime museum
going to do? They are not within the
jurisdiction of my department because
they are not enrolled in any public
schools, and the local truant officer
is underpaid and overworked and
cannot attend to all Of them"
!; Another phase of the problem which
!, is facing the public school authorities
, and those who stand for the welfare
!, of the youth of the land is given by
John M. Rogan, business agent Of the
: plumbers union. He frankly admits
that his union, as means OF self
. preservation, has entirely eliminated
the apprentice system, and that there
: is no place for boys in that union.
acting on the advice Of the Mas
ter Plumbers association, we did away
l with the apprentice system in 1894
= said Mr.. Rogan. cat that time 80
i per cent of the plumbers were walk
2 ing the streets. We have reduced the
r idle number to 15 per cent. If have
r two sons and am earning from 81 to
/ $3.50 a day, I'll give them an educa-
ton and then let them shift for them

MIR. MILES AS ELIJAH
He Has Had Great Success In the Role
of the Prophet.

''Mr Miles is without doubt the great
est Elijah the generation has produced.
His Elijah is a revelation. His voice Is
magnificent and its quality warm and
rich. Notwithstanding its great size and
range it is markedly fine In texture and
remarkably flexible. Temperamently Mr..
Miles is eminently fitted for the role of
Elijah
This criticism is taken from twin
city paper after Gwilym Miles had ap-
peared in Mendelssohn's great oratorio
once before. His success at that time was
tremendous, and he has had since that
time two years in which to broaden his
conception of the role. He will sing the
title part with the Philharmonic club In
its presentation Of Elijah" at Interna-
tional auditorium tomorrow evening
Seats are on sale at the metropolitan

STRANGE MONUMENT
THE CELTIC STONES FOUND IN
SOUTHERN BRITTANY.
Authorities Differ as to Their Mean
ing-A Relic of Prehistoric Peo-
ple-Thought to Have Had
Sepuichral Origin.

The stone monuments of that prehiS-
toric people-Celtic or Turanian-upon
whom tradition and history alike
throw SO little light, are f md all along
the western fringe Of Europe, but no.
where do they exist to such an extent,
or in so perfect state of preservation,
as in the Morbihan district of southern
Brittany. Around the village of Car
nae, at the base of the promontory Of
Quiberon, a wide area of country is
dotted over with cromiechs, dolmens
and tumuli Some of these have fallen
into decay, Others only explored during
recent years, stand as they were left
by their early builders many centuries
ago. The most remarkable feature,
however. is presented by the align
ments, or lines of standing stones,
which run across the country, up hill
and down dale, for a distance of more
than two miles.
The alignments of Carnac have for
long been a puzzle to the archaeologist.
They consist of three groups separated
by short intervening spaces. The most
westerly is the group of LIE Menec, "the
= z. >.
some of which are 16 feet in height
and weigh many tons, are about 900
in number, and are arranged in II par
allel lines, with about ten feet between
each stone. At the western end, where
there is circle some 800 yards in di-
ameter, the stones are very large, but
followed in an easterly direction they
gradually diminish in size until they
cease altogether near the road from
ARRAY to Carnac. After an interval Of
300 yards the group of Kermario, 1.-The
Place Of the Dead" is reached Here
the stones form ten rows Of about 1000
feet in length. The arrangement as
regards size is repeated, the stones on
the west being the largest, but grad
ual diminution occurring towards the
east. Another short break separates
the group of Kerlescant, "the Place Of
Burning"
The stones are of unhewn granite,
similar to that found in the neighbor-
hood. Excavations have led to the dis
covery beneath some of them Of ashes,
flint chips and fragments of pottery,
but no traces Of human bones.
What meaning these menhirs have.
or for what purpose they were erected,
is lost in the mists of antiquity. Some
have supposed them to be the remains
of a great temple; others that they
commemorate battle. Most authori-
ties, however, consider that they had a
sepulchral origin, and the grim signif1-

STANDING STONES OF cARNAc.

canoe of the names the groups bear has
been held to support this view
The tumuli, of which large number
exist in the neighborhood, appear to
have no very definite relation to the
lines of standing stones. Each consists
of mound of earth heaped over a
central chamber, the walls and roof of
which are formed of broad, fiat stones.
N some cases there are two or three
chambers opening into each other. In
the course of long ages the earth has
been washed away from many of the
tumuli, and the stones of the central
chamber now stand uncovered Such a
structure is called dolmen. In Eng
land it would be a cromlech, but in
: Brittany this term is more correctly
applied to circle of stones Within
the tumuli ashes, bones, ornaments,
stone axes, and other objects have been
found. An interesting feature of the
axes is that they have nearly all been
deliberately broken, possibly that their
spirits might be liberated to serve their
master in another world.
