the sepulchres of other monarchs near
 by. so that it may we'll be that it was not originally intended to be the rest. ing place of so great queen. But within it the explorers found the re. mains of the funeral state of Iii, and her body, lying covered with a golden diadem in the form of vulture. whose wings encircled and clasped the brow of its mistress. She lay wrapped about with sheets of furnished gold, within coffin, slightly molded to the form of her body, and encrusted with carnelian and colored glass set in gold. This coffin was originally placed with in wooden shrine or naos, of which the remains were found. Its sides were covered with stucco overlaid with gold leaf The stucco was modelled in relief, with representations of the queen making offerings to the Aten, the sundisk which she and her son worshiped. These reliefs are of ex- traordinary beauty and delicacy. Of the other objects found in the tomb the most beautiful are the ''canopic jars" to hold the entrails of the de- ceased, the lids of which are fashioned in the form of portrait heads of the deceased queen. which show us her features more perfectly than any other known representation of her. Un- happily the mummy itself tells us nothing: only the grinning skull and a heap of bones are left. All the con- tents of the tomb were found in state of the utmost confusion. The burial place had been roughly dis turbed by the orthodox priests of Amen. who. on the overthrow of the Aten heresy. invaded the resting place of the queen in order to hammer out from her funeral furniture the name of her heretical son. And. at some time unknown. water entered the tomb, rendering most of the wood work rotten and reducing it to the condition of touchwood. Much of 1t. as well as the skull and bones of the queen, has only been saved by being coated with boiling paraffin wax. which soaks into the soft material and hard ems it-

Before l say a worrd, sir, l must ask you to put no blame on that po- lisman outside your doore" Denis made straight point at the shrinking uniform at the open door. He did all he could to keep me out Faint he's to blame for disturbing you. 'Tis I'm to blame entirely"
 MT. Chamberlain smiled at the earn. estness of this.
 Well, Cavanagh, I'll forgive him for opening the door, if you'll close It."
 Denis went to the door, winked magnificently at the policeman, and closed the door.
 "Now-what can I do for you. Cav. anagh?"
 Mir. Chamberlain said this in the tone of man who can do nothing at all for the suppliant.
 "Ye can do Private O'Callaghan a good turn. sir"
 Denis stood at the opposite edge of the table. looking down over the green-shaded lamp anxiously at the severe expression of the great minis. ter.
 'I will spare you five minutes. Cav. anagh, but no more. Frankly. my time Is mortgaged to the hilt."
 Sos poor Tim's. too. sir"
 But what can do! The court. martial sentence must be carried out"
 Mir. Chamberlain pulled out a paper from , bundle on his left Look at that: aud perhaps you will see. then. the h1lplessness of O'Callaghan's case"
 Denis took the paper. But the min ister's tone chilled his heart and al most took the sight from his eyes.
 T can't read it," said he. putting the paper down by the lamp.
 Mir. Chamberlain gazed steadily at Denis. He saw how keenly the Irish- man felt about this insignificant sol. dier. He took up the paper and said gravely:
 "The information here is precise. O'Callahan's officer gave an order. which was openly disobeyed. When they got into camp the officer was bound to report the insubordination. But as O'Caliaghan's fighting record was good. the punishment inflicted was slIght-guard-room and pack-driIl. Then. In his first hour of freedom O'Callaghan. got drunk. and went look. ing for the oficer with his gun. As a matter of fact he fired at the officer. but his condition interfered with his marksmanship-usua excellent. The court-martial found the crime punish able with death"
 The quiet force with which these facts were stated completely destroyed Denis Idea of debating the question. But. 1t did not destroy his natural hopefulness.
 -Ah. sir said be, We're looking only at the facta-
 Tn heavens name. Cavansgh. what else can I look at.-

 To Denis utter amazement. the great man stood up and took his hand in most friendly grip. This act of good will nearly brought tears to the eyes of the big Irishman. And he re- turned the hand-shake with the most fervent cordiality.
 "Begor, we made fighting frind of Denis Cavanagh. sir. And I'll be delighted to support amy measure v Iyer bring in.-unless," he added in a hurry. "'tis inimical to the welfare of Ireland!"

AN INTERCEPTED
 DEATH SENTENCE "A Story of Joseph Chamberlain.)
By JOSEPH HEATING.
Copyright. by Joseph B. Bowles.)

When Denis Cavanagh. the honor. able member for Rathkeale. Ireland. left the House that night he felt tired and lonely.
 When he put his latch-key into the door he felt as if he were letting him. self into dungeon. He struck a match and found on the hall table the brown envelope of telegram.
 Cable from army headquarters, central Africa. this morning to O'Cal- laghans. Their poor son Tim court martialed and sentenced to death for mutiny. Old people heart-broken. Save their boy. Biddy."
 This was message to try man. For Denis ample affection and admir- ation for the loving wife who signed herself "Biddy" gave everything she ever said or did extraordinary impor. tance in his eyes: and he took it that she meant him to save the life of the unfortunate Private Tim 0'Callaghan of the Seventeenth Wicklow rangers even if he had to fight all the laws of the British empire.
 And one little thing could stop him from saving his "misfortunate towry" Tim might already have been shot.
 The thought of this gave Denis a twist:
 "Begor! if he is-Biddy1l never speak to me agin."
 That evening at ten o'clock saw the honorable member for Rathkeale be- fore visilant constable on guard out side an ominously closed door.
 The policeman cast a wary eye upon Denis as he came up. But all the same. he touched his helmet respect fully to the honorable member"
 "Is Misther Chamberlain inside?" said Denis. casually. as it were. throw ing side nod at the closed door.
 "He-is-in his room. sir"
 Would ye tell him that Misther Denis Cavanagh. member for Rath- keale. would like a word with him?-
 .1-dare. dare not. sir. Orders must not disturb on any account I'm ,portant orders-affairs-"
 I'm going in. anyway" said Denis.
 The policeman dared not lay hands upon a member of parliament-with- out the sergeant-at-arms beside him. But his body shraak in agony under his uniform as Denis-himself in a quiver-put his knuckles to the oak with the whisper of a knock
 A low but penetrating Come in,- intensified the horror of the situation.

This tomb contained, besides the actual mummies of these progenitors of fa- nous kings. an incredible treasure of itinerary furniture. richly carved and overlaid with gold. Last year Mir. Davis. with MT. Edward R. Ayrton as his assistant. discovered the tomb of King Siptah. of the xIXth dynasty. This year Mr. Davis and Mr. Ayrton have made a more sensational find. They have discovered the tomb of the famous Queen Iii herself.
