DELVE IN The PAST
NEW AND INTERESTING LIGHT
ON EGYPTIAN HISTORY.
British Explorers Find Habitations Of
the Ancient Shepherd Kings of
the Israelites, Centuries
Before Christ.

At University College this year the
annual exhibition of the years work
that has been done in Egypt by the
British School of Archaeology and the
Egyptian Research Account has very
wisely been so subdivided as to pre-
sent distisct foci of interest, so that
the int h1gent visitor in surveying the
tokens which Prof Petrie and Mr.
Duncan and Mr.. Gilbert Smith have
brought home, is conscious of the
meaning and the implications of the
discoveries, says the London Graphic.
The exhibits are elucidated by plans
and models and the rather formal
and concentrated descriptions offered
by the published reports are supple
mented each day by little lectures,
which are delivered in the morning
and afternoon by some one or other
of the archelogosists. Last year the
chief work of the British school was
along the eastern side of the delta
between Cairo and Ismailia; and il
has brought to light. after many Gen.
turtles, the habitations of the ancient
shepherd kings of the 1sraelites, the
Hyksos and one of the cities that they
built At Tell-el-Yehudlyeh the exca-
vations laid bare great camp which
is certainly older than the eighteenth
dynasty and enshrines within it's con.
fines many graves and tombs which
are of the period of these shepherd
kings of Israel who ruled $500 years
before the coming of Christ. The de-
lenses of the camp, not unlike great
''fonduk," such as now exists in the
avans, were chiefly earthworks; and
1t is evident that its dwellers relied
on their archers and singers to keep
Off the enemy On the long "glacis" of
the approaches to the walls. But the
camp reveals that the relations be-
tween Israel and Egypt were not al
ways such as have been supposed;
that time brought its revenges, and
that a great wall was built around the
camp by the skilled masons of Egypt

INDIANS NOT DYING OUT.
More Here To-Day Than There Were
When Columbus Arrived.

A popular impression prevails that
the Indians are dying out. Those who
have given the subject study believe
there are more Indians to-day in the
United States than there were when
Columbus landed.
The Indians were never populous
They were too much at war. They
roamed the prairies and hunted
through the forasts, but they never
had local hab1tatiGns and were never
many in one spot.
The first actual census of the In
dians was taken 70 years ago. At
that time there were found to be $685.
1874. Prior to that time everything had
been by guess.
Beginning with the count of 1886
the official reports Of Indian popula-
ton are as follows: In 1860, at the
beginning of the civil war, there were
254,200. Twenty years later, in 1880,
there were 256,12 In 1900 there were
272,023. To-day, by count Of the In
dian agents on the reservations of the
country there are $4,000 Indians.
The Indian is not dying out, and
there is no reason why he should.
The government has pursued a policy,
mistaken in many respects, but yet
calculated to give the Indian chance
in the race of civilized life, and the
Indian is showing considerable apti.

by primary election or county con-
vention a man to support for this Of
flee at the district convention. Lo-
cal republican political leaders think
that the best method to select this
candidate is through the medium of a
primary election.
It is thought that Messrs. Jessup,
Campbell and Veneer would favor this
plan. BY its adoption they could stump
the county, place their arguments be-
fore the people and after the election
is over, have the satisfaction of know
ing that Wayne county would give a

Wednesday there was great confus-
ion in police circles, owing to the ru-
NOR that Chief Bailey had at the elev-
enth hour, "renigged' on leading the
grand march. This rumor had it that
the chief, owing to his extreme modes
ty and retiring nature, had suffered
an acute attack of that dread disease
commonly known as cold feet" When
asked if the rumor was true, Chief
Bailey denied it in emphatic tones. He
stated that he would be on hand. clad
in his official uniform. which has re-
posed in moth balls since the last po-
lice ball.
1t is expected that as usual, the bal
cony at the coliseum will be crowded
with spectators this evening. Music
