PANBEsA's LETTER.

An Account Of an Egyptian City Thirty
Centuries Ago.
Probably the Oldest letter in the
world is the letter of Panbesa, written
fifteen centuries before Christ to his
friend, Amenemapt, a scribe.
The manuscript is of perishable
papyrus, and it is amazing that it
should have survived for more than
thirty centuries and still be legible.
1t is preserved In the collection of
the British museum. 1t has been sew
eral times translated. 1t presents an
interesting picture of life in Egypt in
the time Of Rameses II. 1t is more in
the nature of literary production,
poem composed in celebration of the
visit of Pharaoh to the city of Pa-
Rameses, than an ordinary letter Of to-
day.
Panbesa "greets his lord, the scribe
Amenemapt, to whom be life, health
and strength and then goes OH to de-
scribe the vertlant fields, the thrashing
floors, the vineyards. the groves Of
olives, the orchards Of figs, the great
daily markets, with their fish and wa
terfowl and swarms of purchasers.
The citizens had their sweet wine of
Khemi, ipomegranate wine and wine
from the vineyards" and to these they
added "beer of xati."
There was music in plenty furnished
by the singers of the school of Memphis.
On the. whole, Pa-Rameses seems to
have been a pleasant place to live in.
1.-THE lesser folk are there equal with
the great folk" and Panbesa writes
that its maidens were "in holiday at
tire every day." with locks "redolent of
perfumed oil.n

STRIKE RIOT AT
STONE QUARRIEs
Revolvers Fired and Stones Thrown
but No One Is Seriously Injured
Cause of Trouble.

Joliet, ILL.,, Nov. 23.--A riot occurred
as Il result of IL strike following an
attempted wage reduction among stone
qnailylncn Strikers and men wishing
to work clashed in Il bloody fight Re
volvers We're used, but most OF the
shots We're fired in the air to intimi-
date. Stones were thrown and Il num-
Der of men on both sides We're hit, but
no serious injuries are reported.
The riot occurred in the vicinity of
the Western Stone company's Quarries
southeast of Joliet. The wage scale Of
20 cents an hour for ten hours, it was
announced would be reduced TO LIZ
cents an hour for nine hours. In con-
sequence the men in. the various quar-
rieS went on strike.
Men from the Quarries Mt I-cmont,
ILL.,. Went to Joliet to take the places Of
some OF the strikers and this pre-
cipitated the clash. Police and deputy
sheriffs are now patrolling the quarry
district.
