Emmanuel II. deserves great credit
for inaugurating still further work.
He contributed something like 3D..
0O0f. to the funds, and began new ex-
cavations with a state and pOmp that
gave new impetus to the excavations.
More than this, the digging was now
conducted in scientific lines. Unfor-
tunately, on Nov. 16, 1885, everything
stopped peremptorily. The limits OF
the purchased land were reached
provokingly enough, just as superb
Roman public bath was coming into
view before the entranced scientists.
Had the work gone further, however,
undoubtedly the streets of modern
Resina above would have fallen in,
very much as is the case to-day in
Northwich, in Cheshire, England,
which lies over vast salt mines.
In 1884 feeble attempts were made
to repair the subterranean theater,
and a few insignificant fragments
were picked up. That was the last
attempt, and from that time to this
day Herculaneum has remained as it
was in the awful moment when utter
destruction came upon it and it was
buried With its fair sisters, Pompeii
and Stabiae.

DRUMMER HAD INGENIOUS IDEA.
How the Agent for an Engine Worked
Up Big Business.

His name is Barnes. Until recently
he was mechanic. Now he is trav-
cling salesman of distinctly novel va
riety.
He lives in the prairie section Of
the middle west and when gasoline
engines began to approach their pres
ent practicability decided that they
were bound to replace wind mills for
farm purposes. In this belief he Sc
cured an agency for the one he con-
sidered best, procured a sample and
set it up on an ordinary farm wagon.

BY few simple connections he ar
ranged in his wagon with steer
ing gear, according to Spare Mo.
ments. One shaft with some sprocket
wheels and chain made all the mech.
anism necessary in order for the en-
CINE to drive his combination at the
rate of six miles an hour.
He carried a pump Jack and a
small assortment of small pulleys, so
arranged as to be capable of attach
ment TO churns, washing machines
and the like. His outfit attracts at
tention and makes talk, all of which
has advertising value; while when he
pulls into a farmers yard he can
snow his prospective customer just
what the machine will do.
AS a result he sells more engines
imam all other agencies in his terri
tory; and as he carries his Office in
MS pocket, his territory is limited only
by his speed.

died in Florence, whittier he had to
fly for political reasons.
After this Herculaneum was let lie

acclaimed Charles III. of Spain as
their king, and the year 1877 found a
royal palace built at Portici Charles

beneath his feet there was a. marvel

gan excavations, and at a depth of
about 80 feet below the surface came
upon the long buried city of Hercula-
neum under the miserable modern
villages of Resina and Portici.
The following year work was begun
again in the well out of which d'EIbeuf
had taken his bronzes, marbles and
terra cottas, and to the delight of the
kingly archaelogist the workmen i'm
mediately came upon the fragments

stately statues of three Roman con

showing that at certain spot was the
grand entrance to the ,theater of Her.
culaneum. This superb structure nv
the way, was entirely excavated nm
dergrOupd at various times during the
following decade.
1t is worth noting that so far all
work had been carried on by military
engineers, sappers and miners. One
of the most notable was Alcabierra
who had come from Spain with
Charles. He entered into this worl
with all the spirit and enthusiasm of
treasure diver but fell i'll through ev.
posture In damp tunnels, and was snc-
ceeded at various times by Francesca
Borro and Peter Baudet.
Not much was done under these.
and when Carl Weber, a Swiss had
been at work for few months il was
suddenly decided to stop all further
operations and begin anew with Pom

broken, we'll knowing he was on the
very eve of discoveries that would
startle the world.
But there was nothing for it but TO

ARART or TIT 1LzRlED CITY

AT last after nearly three years Of
EFFORT, Prof. Waldstein has secured the
opportunity Of continuing the work of
excavation OF Herculaneum, which has
Deen attempted upon several different
occasions and then abandoned, and
now the hopes and expectations of
arcnaeOlOg1sts is to be realized for 1t
is confidently asserted that no ancient
city could yield SO rich art treasures
as those Of Herculaneum
Herculaneum is supposed to have
been founded by Hercules when, on
his return to Iberia, he landed on the
coast of Campania some 300 years be-
fore Christ was born, it being
Roman city, with all the rights and
dignities attaching thereunto.
In A. d. 63 dread Vesuvius gave eyi-
dence of activity Past and gone was
the era In which old Strabo described
of Augustus spread their green velvet
in the very crater itself On the final
day of the cataclysm the whole world
seemed to be shaken with earthquake,
whose traces are seen to-day in the
cracked mosaics and villa walls of
dug-up Pompeii.
All archaeologists are agreed that
the houses and villas of Herculaneum
were far more magnificent than those
of Pompeii. This has been proved by
the House of the Papyri, which was
dug out in 1854, but was afterward
recovered with debris from other ex-
cavations. This famous villa is sup
posed to have belonged to Lucius Cal
purnius Piso. Here was found a
treasure in the form Of library of
nearly 1000 rolls of papyrus, which
gave promise of far greater riches to
come.
The history of Herculaneum shows
series of spasmodic efforts on the
part of patriots and scientists to I'M
cover it's buried wealth. Toward the
close of the fifteenth century some ac-
cidentally found fragments of mosaic
and statuary led the archaeologists of
the day to think that the long-lost city
lay beneath the soil at that spot. But
not for another 200 years was any,
thing made certain. In 1706 the Prince
d'Elbeuf of Lorraine came to Italy
with Philip V. and settled In the city
of Naples, after marrying the Prince
of Salsa's daughter.
A few years later he built a beauti-
full palace near Portici, and it's most

who had found them while digging a
we'll. Now, the Prince d'Elbeuf was a
connoisseur of no mean merit. Amazed
at the quantity and beauty of the
antiquities that came to him so
strangely, he began to dig on his own
account, with unexpected success. His
workmen turned up several beautiful
statues before his eyes, and some of
them he presented to Prince Eugene
OF Saxony and others to Louis XIV.
Soon the municipal authorities of
Naples began to object to this free |
booting, and stopped all further work.

SHERIDAN, Wyo., Oct. 27.-Two COM
panies left for the Mackenzie today,
going north, and it is generally be-
lieved that they have gone to intercept
the Ute Indians in case they attempt
to reach the Cheyenne agency before
the arrival of the cavalry from Fort
Meade.
Old-timers here say that should the
Utes reach the Cheyennes they would
fire that band into revolt and a serious
war would result. The Cheyennes are
hard fighters and have given the Gov
ernment much trouble.
The second detachment of cavalry
sent out from Fort Robinson left Gill
lette about midnight and unloaded this
morning at Kendrick, three miles from
Arvada. They had instructions from
the department to march close on the
heels of the Indians but not to fire
unless absolutely necessary. They will
await the arrival OF the troops from
Fort Meade before making a demon
Stration.
The Indians camped last night about
sixty miles northeast of Sheridan.
Chief Kannapph says they will not go
back. Beyond killing stock for food
and robbing an occasional sheep camp,
the Indians are committing no depre-
dations.

SANTA CLARA, Get 27.-Maids and
Santa Clara-in fact, almost every one
in town, has worked earnestly to make
the benefit bazaar for the Sodality Ath-
letic Association a financial success.
The bazaar was formally opened
Wednesday evening by d. o. Druffel,
Mayor of Santa Clara. Among those
present was Rev. Father Cunningham,
founder of the club, who arrived from
Mexico last Saturday evening. He was
met by several hundred students and
escorted from the depot by the college
brass band.
The Sodality Club is an athletic or
ganization affiliated with Santa Clara
College and dating back in it's history
twenty years. 1t has turned out many
famous players, and six years ago won
the amateur baseball championship of
the State. The membership roll includes
several hundred prominent Santa
Clarans The intention is to replace
the old clubrooms with a modern struc-
ture fully equipped for athletic and So
cial purposes.
Among the most energetic workers
for the success of the bazaar was Miss
Mary Graham
The programme each night has been
largely musical, many Of the leading
artists of the county taking part. The
attendance has been large. The music
tonight was furnished by Miss Kate
Cullen. Miss Marguerite Sheehy and the
Sodality band.
