American Antiquarian. ut is the
body Of a man who was buried In q
shallow grave followed out OF tho

have hunted along the banks OF the
Nile before the time OF the earliest
mummied king which the museum
possesses es-before the time of Menes,
who was supposed TO have ruled
Egypt at least 5000 b. c. There were
previous TO that time two prehistoric
races, one the conquerors aud tina
other the conquered. from which
sprang the Egyptian race Of the earli-
est dynasties. II Is with these remote

until the result Of the convention OF the
anthracite mine workers in Scranton on
Thursday Is known.
The belief among most Of the coal dealers
In this city yesterday was that no matter

view was shared by others as the demand
for small steam sizes increase and prices
went up.
