spolLs OF ANCIENT EGYPT
The Oldest Piece of Sculpture in the
World Recently Brought
to Light.

Among the spoils OF the last seasons
campaign by Prof w NJ. Flinders Petrie
and his assistants of the Egypt explora-
ton fund is a remarkable sculpture,
probably the oldest in the world. II was
found at Wady Maghara. Sinai where
hitherto the difficulties Of maintaining
camp IN the desert FIVE days camel
journey from Suez had prevented any
serious excavation.
The sculpture, which would probably
not be accepted by the committee of the
Royal academy II sent in for exhibition,
represents King semerkhet,of the first
dynasty shifting down a Bedawi sheik,
after the manner of kings about 1900
b. G. Above that is figure of the gen
eral who commanded the expedition.
This is by no means the most remote of
the discoveries. There is, for instance,
collection of fiints used for working
turquoises out of the sandstone. prob
ably by the Bedouin in a period about
10000 B. c. They show several types OF
which the hammers, the larger scoring
flakes and the small fakes with point
are the most distinct.
Among the most interesting relics are
the Roman objects found at Oxyrnkhos
by Drs. Grenfell and Hunt. They in
clude some specimens Of the most beau
tiful colored glass, the arm Of the Aphro-
dite grasping Cupid, limestone female
head Of remarkable type and large col
lection OF bone and ivory dice. Wher-
ever the Roman soldier went there are
always found these primitive gaming
instruments and they are precisely the
same as those in use 3 ~.
A sphinx, Neutrality-suspicious. in an
unknown script, excires curiosity, and
the presence of a good hieroglyphic in
scriptlon as we'll as the sphinx shows
that these were not done as ignorant inn
ltations OF hieroglyphics. but that 1t is
definite system Of writing.

Mapleton, Oct. 22.-Saturday even
ing about O'Clock, Miss Minnie Bak-
er, young woman, was assaulted In
the south part of town, near the Mil
waukee depot, her assailant being q
young farm hand who had been work
Miss Baker had been working in a
store during the day and was on her
way to supper at a friends house when
she heard some one coming behind
her quite rapidly. She stepped aside
to let him pass. Just as he got UP to
her he struck her to the ground, then
dragged her to>a plum thiclet little
off the street. He held here there for
about an hour, telling her he would
Kill her if she made a cry. After a
time her friends, becoming concerned,
instituted search and tae man is
supposed to have become afrig htened, as
he ran away. When found the girl
was in semi-conscious condition,
and nearly dead with fright. She was
taken to the home of her friends. Her
clothing was badly torn, her face
bruised and cut and exhibited an APP
pearance of a frightful struggle. Lat
er she was taken to her home, one
mile south Of Mapleton, and a ply
sician called.
In the meantime search was made
for the man. His hat was found and
identified and word was sent to the
place where he had worked, about
three miles east of town. At nearly
midnight he returned to that place
and went to bed. The people advised
the authorities at Mapleton, who JIM
mediately went out and placed him
under arrest, brought him to town and
placed him in Jail. The man gives his
name as Claude FisheB says he has
been working in Dakota, and has been
around here about week. He prac-
tically admits his guilt. He is about
81 years old and weighs about $50
pounds. 1t is reported he had been
drinking during the day. TIe was sent
to Onawa to await the grand jury's
action. DR.. Gillespie, who attended
Miss Baker, reports this morning that
Willie she is in quite serious condi-
ito he thinks she will get along all
right.
Considerable excitement prevails,
but close watch is being kept so it is
thought nothing serious will be at
tempted to keep the law from taking
its course
