From the Tomb of Antinous.

From the New York Sun.
M. Gayetv the explorer of the tomb of
Antinous in Egypt. has returned to Paris,
bringing with him some gilded mummies,
the like of which are not in any European
museums, nor even in Carlo One was
shown in the exhibition of 1900. but was
returned to some privatei collection in
Egypt. M. Gayet Is especially proud of
one which was called the favorite of An
tinous He speaks lovingly of her dark
brown hair, which clusters thickly like
punches of black grapes. In life she was
one OF the courtesans who vowed service
to Antinous. the Egyptian Bacchus behind
whose car she leaped and danced SYM
bolizing the renewed youth of the year
awakened by the caresses of the god of
springtime
M. Gayet discovered much even in the
name of this mummy from an adept in the
hidden sciences, whose name he keeps a
secret. He will give this man an object
TO hold and he can call before him its first
owner. Gayet tells a story of how he first
tested this man by giving him a forged
scarab. saying 1t was ancient and had just
been brought from a tomb. The adept held
the scarab in his hands, and Gayet who
expected to hear some faked-up story of
old Egypt, heard with surprise an exact
description of the felIah who had made the
scarab a week before for him.
Then NJ Gayet gave the expert a ring of
virgin gold which had laid 1900 years in
the tomb beside the favorite of Antinous.
The seer blew lightly. In order to drive
away the effect OF later touches, and thu
pressed his forehead. He had never seen
the courtesan's mummy, but described the
fayorite as she was wrapped for the tomb
He described how she danced In proces-
sion and told an intimate story of her life
as an example of how she out of wanton-
ness would pierce doves to the heart with
long gold pin of her headdress He told
even the name of the dead woman, which
was Arteninsie.

Maui. the Deni-G God.

Another side of Hawaiian folklore is just
as worthy of comparison with the European
standard tales. Jack the Giant-Kil,er and
the other wonder workers who dwelt in the
mist land of the civilized nations would
enjoy reading the marvellous record of Maui,
the skillful derni-god of Hawaiian legends.
He went fishing with magic hook and
pulled up groups of islands from the depths
of the ocean. The story is told in a way
as matter of fact If it were a fishing
excursion only little out of the ordinary
course. Maui lived In a country where vol
canic fires were always burning in the
mountains. Nevertheless, 1t was little IN
convenient to walk thirty or forty miles for
fresh living coal of fire after the cold
winds of the night had killed the Goals
which had been carefully protected the
evening before. When he saw that some
intelligent birds knew the art of making
fire. he captured the leader and forced him
to tell the secret of rubbing certain sticks
together until fire came, whenever and
wherever it was desired. Maui also made
snares captured the sun, and compelled 1t
to journey regularly and slowly across the
heavens. Thus the day was regulated to
meet the wants of mankind. He lifted the

LEGENDS OF HAWAII
Many Beautiful Nature Myths Believ-
ed by the Children Of the sunny
Islands Of the Pacific.

From the Honolulu Advertiser
. The legends OF the Hawaiian Islands are
as diverse as those OF any country OF Esu-
rope They are also entirely distinct IN
thought and form from the fairy tales
which excited the interest and wonder OF
the English or German child.
The mythology Of Hawaii follows the
laws upon which all myths ere constructed.
There is always some kind of foundation.
there is always some exercise of the imagi-
nation-and an attempt to logically find an
appropriate outcome OF the story.
The islanders have developed some beau
tfful nature myths. Certain phenome ma
have been observed and the imagination
has fitted a story to the Interesting object
whicn has attracted attention The rain

were invented to harmonic with tho con-

Such nature-myths these are well

Uniformity of Dialect.

A feature OF underworld stories is the
conspicuous absence of that uniformity in
dialect which one finds In stories depicting

written dialect of other territories--no mat

no matter by whom written--is full of GER

become veritable trademarks. The same
