EARTHQUAKE HELPED CUPID.t
Record Month for Marriage Licenses In
san Francisco and Many Wed.

san Francisco and Many We'd.
SAN Francisco, May l8.-San Francisco
can boast of "a new marriag e license record.
In the month since the disaster on April Is
exactly 4is couples appeared before Cupid
Munson and, after depositing the neces-
sary 81, received the requisite paper. h
total in eighteen more than have ever been
issued in a calendar month in the history Of
the city.
June, 1905, set the record up to date.
Had all parties living in the city come
to this Office for their licenses since the
earthquake" declared Munson, "we would
have had more business than we could
possibly have attended to. The record of
marriage licenses issued would have been
somewhat more than 700. Hose who went
to n~eighboring counties would easily have
made up this number"
In the excitement Immediately following
the calamity as many as twenty couples
were welded by ministers In the parks
without license papers. Cupid Nunson
has been besieged by several ministers
who of1ciated at these weddings for the
required papers at this late date. Munson
can do nothing for them. and in every
case the legality Of the maria &c can be
questioned. The only thing for these
couples to do, he declares, IL to procure
licenses and be married all over again.

ANCIENT TEMPLE or ONIAS.
sanctuary Built BY Jewish Fusftives in
the Nile Delta.

One Of the most valuable discoveries Of
the British School Of Archaeology in Egypt
during the past winter season was the idsn-
tifcation Of the ancient Hebrew Temple Of
Onias by Prof. Flinders Petrie, says the
Scientific American. When the persecution
of the Jews by Antiochus caused them to
fee many Of the fugitives settled in a re-
mote corner In the east of the delta, and In
this sanctuary Onias Nv. Of the high priests
erected a temple after the design OF that
at Jerusalem. in order that this spot might
serve as a rallying point for those in fight.
This temple Is duly mentioned by the his
torian Josephus, who states that IL q
erected on the site Of an old Egyptian town.
Some time ago it was realized that the po-
sition OF this settlement was the tow Of
Tel eli Y~ehudiyeh, which Is some eighteen
miles north of Cairo, but it has been left to
Prof. Petrie to prove the identity Of the
location oonolusively, and In this work
he has found the closest corroboration,
even to the minutest particulars, Of the
statements set forth by Josephus.
The ground plan Of his settlement is
roughly q right angled triangle, and 1t a
strongly fortified. On the eastern side was
an eastern wall Of stone TOT feet in length
by at least twenty feet in height, and termi-
mating in bastions at the ends. The entrance
was at the west acute angle, while the tenn
pie was at the south point. The hypothenuse
of the triangle was formed Of an inwardly
curving wall not less than twenty feet in
thickness, rising to a height of % feet, at an
angle Of over sixty degrees, to support the
temple, entry TO the court Of which was at
tanned by means Of a stairway la feet in
width in the eastern wall.
The settlement covered ar area ranging
from three to four acres in extent and the
sacred edifloe was exactly half the size OF
the temple erected in Jerusalem by King
Solomon. The rough lines Of the structure
built by OniRs are now only visible, owing
to the vandalism Of the natives in quest OF
earth, but about twenty years ago the walls
were standing and the pavements and
pillars were then extant. Prof. Petrie finds
feet In length by "a feet in width, while the
outer court was Is feet long by 80 feet wide,
inside measurements. The architecture was
Corinthian with Syrian features In the
battlements.
When the natives first commenced ex-
cavating earth from tho site some years
ago vast quantities. Of burnt bones were
revealed, and the probability Is that they
were the remains Of the daily sacrifices.
Evidences Of this have been discovered In
the foundations, since In the lower part have
been unearthed on all sides huge Cylinders
OF pottery sunk in the ground in which
the sacrifices were celebrated, fresh earth
being thrown Upon each fire offering In
order to smother 1t, so that traces Of sac
rifcial rites remain alternate with layers Of
earth,

FORET0LD KINGS MISFORTUNES
Strange Meeting Between Francis Joseph
and q Seer In Tyroi Mountains.

IRON ire GTdnu hdp0stfe,
The critical condition OF political affairs
In Austria-Hungary invests with great sig-
n~ifcanoe a very remarkable incident In the
life of the Emperor Francis Joseph, which
occurred shortly before his marriage In 1854,
the details Of which have never been made
public.
The young Emperor. who was an intrepid
mountaineer. had been spending a few days
In the Tyrol with his brother, the Archduke
Macmillan. afterward Emperor of Mexico.
In pursuit Of their ~favorite sport of channels
hunting. Returning late one evening, after
an unsuccessful days shooting. they were
proceeding along a dangerous path on the
face OF q precipice when they were startled
by the sudden apparition OF a wild and bag
gard looking man, who sprang forward to
meet them and raising his hand called
upon them In the name OF heaven TO stop
as he had a message which they alone might
hear.
The narrow path would hardly permit two
persons to pass. and the man who resolutely
barred the way had all the appearance Of be-
ing an escaped %lunatic. Deeming IL prudent to
humor him the Emperor stopped and told
him 10 deliver his message. To his amaze
ment the seemingly ignorant peasant proved
In a few hurried words that no was a man
of education and fully aware OF certain State
secrets which the Emperor supposed were
known TO him and his Ministers alone. Pass
ing rapidly from the present to the future,
the seer in hurried words foretold a long
series Of tragic disasters which would befall
the young sovereign and then pushing past
him. rushed swiftly Town the steep path and
disappeared.
Anxious TO learn by what means the man
had discovered the Cabinet secrets, Of which
he evidently had full knowledge, the EN-
peror Immediately retraced his steps In order
TO meet some members Of the hunting party
who were following him, On reaching them
he learned that no one had sven seen the
mysterious stranger, As the path was over

ask for Communication OF sentence or parole
on the ground that their loved ones have
been ruined by the San Francisco disaster

that their families were really in want, COM
muted their sentences, and every convict
within the walls has now discovered q
