Modern Cairo must be a sort Of gam
blers paradise, Judging from some
facts which recently had from a
friend who has been investigating the
subject. In one Of the principal streets
near Mohammed Ali square a gentle
man who knows the town well pointed
out over twenty first floors over the
shops with the names Of bars upon
them, every one of which he knew to
be a gambling hell, and police Oficial
admitted TO the investigator that the
town was full Of such places. The po-
lice do not seem to be at fault. They
raid the places from time to time, but
the offenders, nearly all foreigners and
mostly Greeks, are protected by their
consuls and let Off lightly and return to
the business the next day. | should
guess that the business Is chiefly car
ried on for foreigners as well as by

are drawn from all corners of the

CANAL CONTRACT LET.
Jones and Smyth of Portland VIII
Build Half Mile for S292 900.

Jones & Smyth of Portland, who
agreed to build the first half mile OF
the Cello canal for $292,000, were
awarded the contract this morning.
says the Oregon Daily Journal. They
bid on what Is known as the c design,
which means that the walls OF the big
waterway will be built of solid cement.
Work on the canal will be started as
soon as men can be employed and the
necessary Implements placed on the
ground. The contract calls for the
completion of that stretch by Decem-
ber 81. 1906.
This portion OF the canal is regard
ed as the most difficult to construct
iu the entire length of the proposed
waterway. 1t extends down the river
half mile from Cello and a big part
OF the formation consists of solid rock.
When completed the canal will be ap-
proximately eight miles long.
No money Is available with which to
do any further work on the canal at
this time. The United States engin-
GERS stated this morning that they
hope n liberal appropriation for the
completion of the project will be made
by congress at its coming session. 1t
is supposed that $10,000,000 more will
be sufficient.

The Exchequer.

In past times 1t was the custom for
the kings justiciar and his subordi-
mates to make up the royal accounts
twice year, at Easter and Michael
mas, on table which was the most
striking object in the chamber in
which they assembled. This table was
covered with dark russell cloth divided
into squares, which gave 1t checker
ed, chessboard-like appearance, and in
the columns and spaces the accounts
rendered by the sheriffs and great
landowners who attended for that
purpose, were entered and reckoned
up. 1t was the checkered cloth, so
conspicuous throughout the proceed
ings, that gave rise TO the name ex-
chequer, just as the stars painted on
the ceiling of another historic room
originated the name 'star chamber

land wished to get some idea of the
Gaelic and employed an old native to
give her a course Of language lessons
The Scotsman took the Bible for the
text book, and, opening it at the be.
ginning Of Genesis, he said:
Now, ma'am, I'll read this TO yoD
in the Gaelic, and you'll see yourself
how 1t will GO"
With solemn intonation and an ap-
peallng. triumphant glance toward the
lady at the end of every clause, he
loudly read the first four verses and
paused TO watch the effect. Then he
said in tone of deep convictions:
"NOw, ma'am, II you'll take your
own Bible and turn TO that chapter and
read it in English you'll see it's just
the selfsame thing"
The old man was much surprised that
the lady did not continue her lessons.
