the crippled republic to re-establish it.
self, military order was revived stip-.
ulating that certain public amuse-
ments In Havana should be suspended
until further notice. Among the inter
5dicted sports was cock-fg hting, which
has long been dear to the Cuban
heart This order was openly resent

when some were raided the spectators
who were arrested included several
gentlemen Of social prominence who
at one time or another had held inn

THE SPHINX.
Nothing BY Which We Can Accurately
Tell It's Ace. 81

Nothing BY Which We Can Accurately
Tell Its Age.
The great sphinx of Gizeh bears no
inscription by which we can tell its
date. In 1916 Caviglia, who in mods
ern times was the first to clear away
the sand, found between its paws
stella of the reign Of Thothmes w..
and therefore 1t was believed that the,
sphinx was carved by that monarch
But In 1855 the excavations Of Mari,
cite uncovered stella bearing the
name of Cheops, on which is refer.
ence to the sphinx. The Inscription is;
evidently Of a late period, but Is sup.
posed to be an exact copy Of an an
Gent carving, and the translation seem
ed to place the sphinx earlier than the
pyramids and consequently to prove It
the most ancient piece of work In the
world. Still there remained four lines
carved on the base which could not
be read but NJ Daressy deciphered
them, and 1t. appears that the inscrlp-
stfon Isl in two parts. In the earlier
lines there Is no mention Of the sphinx,
but the lines which date from the Per-
sian occupation mention the repair of
the sphinx. There is, therefore, moth
Ing by which we can tell the date Of
the monument, and the only evidence
we have is the headdress Of the Colos-
sus. Its hood is ornamented behind
| with three bands, a large one between
two smaller bands. Now, this Us a.
fashion which only existed toward the
END Of the twelfth dynasty In the
reignss Of Usurtesen III and Amenem-
het III. AS this family showed much
zeal for the god Harmaklin, whose por-
trait the sphinx is, it is probable that
the monument is the work Of Amenem-
bet III London Globe.

5RicHARDToN's NEW DOCTOR
SPRINGS A SENSATION ON
HIS ARRIVAL.

Richardton News, LIST: Quite a sem
sation attended the arrival in town of
our new doctor, DR.. Bussen, Monday
night, but not unlike many other mys-
sterious things there are two sides to
the story, and after all 1t was quite
joke, although we will not attempt to
say who the joke is on, the depot
agent or the doctor himself. 1t seems
that the doctor brought with him from
Valley City a preserved specimen Of
an infant and in some way the jar in
which it was preserved become brok-
en-, and having business in Dickinson.
the doctor went through her on train
No. 1, but not wishing to carry the
specimen to Dickinson and back
dropped off the train here and hurried
into the depot with the specimen.
which was now loosely wrapped in a
newspaper, and hurriedly asked the
night operator to take care Of the
specimen until he returned from Dick
inson. But in the morning the opera
tor forgot to say anything to Mr., Nc
Cornell, the agent, and went away
lleaving the specimen on Mr.. McCon-
|nelps desk. When ready to use the
desk Mr.. cConnell proceeded to clear
Ioff his desk. and to his horror and
CONSERVATION discovered the child.
/ Not knowing about the circumstances
we can imagine what a sensation it
! must have caused. The assistance OF
the marshal, the sheriff and the city
officials was called into play and some
excitement was caused, but abou. that
time the doctor telephoned tiowa from
i Dickinson and cleared up the whole
i mystery. III.

CEMENT DEPOSITS FOUND.

What promises TO be one OF the
most valuable group of claims ever
located in the state were located yes
terday two miles from Topaz by s.
Lund. of his city and Charles w.
Hickey. Of Topaz. The claims are
sixteen in number and cover a great
cement deposit which the owners eX-
pect to develop as soon as the wealth
e. will permit.
The claims include a great deposit
Of red clay and OF limestone The two
necessary things for the making of
cement and tests from the two have
fully demonstrated that they will
make a hight grade cement, The
property is within two mile OF To-
paz and is located in a neighborhood
where there are also some rich quar-
ries of gray and blue marble.
The property, # it proves valuable
as indicated, will be one of the great
est propositions i'll the state. The
railroad facilities are one OF the prob
lens now to be overcome, the To-
cations being thirty-6ve miles from
any road but it is expected these
matters will be adjusted after the de-
