PASTORS TRIBUE TO CLARENCE KING.

e {.
The funeral of Clarence King last
Friday afternoon was accompanied
by pouring rain, but this did not
prevent large attendance of friends
of the family. Pastor Nicholson's
remarks were based on the opening
sentence Of the 18th chapter Of John
Let not your hearts be troubled, !"
land for this he gave as one Of his
reasons the fact that Mr.. King had
listened to the reading of this chap
ter in his dying hour, and had given
the strongest evidence Of peaceful
resignation after the reading. The
pastor testified feelingly to the per-
sonal relations existing between Mr..
King and his pastor, and declared
that as long as the beautiful church
which he had done so much to ma
terialize should stand, Clarence King
would need no other memorial. Be
fore the death Of the late Mrs.
Clarence King that lady had joined
with her husband in expressing their.
desire to contribute Thousand dol
lars for the building Of the church
home that they SO much desired. and
since that time Mr.. King had ex-
pressed his desire to contribute a
second thousand to clear the church
from debt. Many in the congrega-
ton were deeply affected over the
loss of their familiar co-worker, and
the pastor closed his address with q
heartfelt petition on behalf Of the
mother and orphaned children of
his departed friend.

BAY BALDWIN DIES SUDDENLY.

Claude Baldwin of this city re.
|ceived telegram yesterday morn
ing notifying him that his brother,
James Monroe Baldwin, Jr., had
passed away at Minneapolis the night
before, while on his way home from
Oregon.
The news is none the less sad when
taken in connection with the fact
that the young man went away with
shattered health last January, with
only a remote prospect of his recov-
cry. 1t was hoped that the change
of climate might prolong his life,
but we are told that be newer made
any improvement in health after
leaving here to join his father in far
Oregon. The latter came with his
son, and in the absence of details,
the supposition is that father and
son started homeward on account of
a change for the worse in the con-
dition of the patient, in order that
he might spend his last hours under
his mothers care. It will be sad
Homecoming. Bay" as he was
called at home to distinguish him
from the older Monroe, was popu-
lar athlete in the high school team a
few years ago, and was a favorite
on account of his kindly disposition.
He was "a years old, and his death
is the result of an affection of the
lungs. Besides his parents, two
sisters and eight brothers survive
him.

The men who helped me were

These are great names in Moham-

The view from Cheops pays for
the climb. In one direction lies
Cairo and the fertile region Of the
delta, never more lovely in appear
ance, i imagine, that at this season.
Perhaps it is not so very beautiful
now, except by contrast with the
desert in the other direction: for the
pyramids are on the deserts edge.
In one respect the desert greatly
surprised me. | had imagined it a
far-stretching, level waste Of sand.
1t was not level but very uneven a
seemingly endless succession Of sand
hills.
It was easy getting down the steps
of the pyramid, the helpers lifting
as stepped or leaped from ledge to
ledge, These steps were formerly
filled by great pieces Of limestone,
and the surfaces smoothed and pol
ished. When near the foundation
we entered the pyramid, and, stoop-
ing followed a gallery which is 8
feet and II inches high by 8 feet and.
5 iches wide, descending at an angle
of 26 degrees to a chamber 80 feet
below the pyramids base. When
we had followed this gallery about
125 feet, we made a sharp turn and
assembled another long gallery. Sud-
denly we discovered that our low
gallery had become great hall,
ascending at the same angle, for Isl
feet, being 2 feet wide and 81 feet
high. At the end Of this was an
ante-chamber which had once been
guarded by four great doors. Then
came a great chamber 81 feet long,
II feet wide and 10 feet high, rooted
with nine immense slabs of granite
18a feet long. In one end Of the
chamber was an immense granite
sarcophagus, designed to hold the
kings body Another passage which
we did not follow terminates in a
chamber called the Queens cham
Der, and other passages lead to other
chambers and sarcophagi.

CLIMBS THE PYRAMIDS.
DR.. Cowgirl Describes His Adventures
Among the Tombs Of Egypt.

Minneapolis Journal.
Cairo, Egypt, April Both.
On Wednesday morning, April
oath, our party got an early start
for the pyramids Of Egypt. Our
ride to the tramway where we took
cars to Gizeh was very interesting
on account Of the Egyptians who
were coming in from the surround
ing country with their produce for
the markets. We had seen the
fellaheen the previous day cutting
and binding new small bundles what
appeared to be clover. Nowswe saw
these bundles packed upon camels
and donkeys in great stacks that
almost hid the animals from view.
To keep it fresh, they often compel
the camels to lie down while they
empty buckets Of water on it. The
animals carry burdens of this sort
amounting to eight or ten hundred
pounds. The camels and donkeys
laden with every sort Of farm pro-
duce and attended by their drivers
passed by US in an almost endless
procession as we drove to the edge
Of the town. We passed a process
sion of camels returning to the
country, and bearing great baskets
filled with earth. At first we thot
this earth was being used for grad
ing purposes somewhere; but we
were informed that this earth was
Of ruins, and used for fertilizing
purposes.
Going out, we also passed over a
splendid bridge, both entrances to
which were adorned by colossal
statues Of lions.
Aride of about seven miles on the
tramcars brought us to the pyra-
mids. Our dragoman at once en-
gagged men to help us up the slope.
The authorities allowed no one to
make this climb without expert
assistants, unless he assigns a state
ment assuming definitely the respon-
sibility for injuries he may sustain
by falling.
Hitherto it has always seemed to
me rather absurd to hire men to
help me climb the pyramid; but
when / saw where / was to go | felt
willing to have assistance. tho | de-
cided that two men would be enough.
Climbing the pyramid is no ssnap."
This hugh pile is 755 feet broad at
the base, and 451 feet high, cover
ing IS acres of ground The angle
which the line Of ascent makes with
the plain on which it stands IS nearly
81 degrees, SO that one gets up far
Their than one gets forward. The
steps average about 8 feet high.
The helpers, holding each hand Of
the climber, mount the steps ahead
Of him, and pull as he rises. was
the last of our party to get started.

up. He was quite red in the face
and breathed as tho he had been

Want TIME LIMIT REMOVED
Older Board of Trade Men Seek TO
Retain Tried Directors.
Notice of an Amendment Repeating
Bylaw Restricting Their Terms
of Service Is Posted.

One who visits the rooms Of the Board
Of Trade this week will see posted there
a notice signed by Cuno II. Rudolph, Of
an amendment TO the bylaws Of the board
repeating the limit upon the length Of
/ time directors shall serve.
II is understood that behind this notice
! is a movement of considerable proportions
backing the proposition Last year a limit
was voted to the number of terms a mem
| Der Of the board Of directors could serve.
The amendment TO the bylaws imposing
this limit Of service was proposed about
year ago by .. J. Callahan and adopted
/ by the Board of Trade after a hot argu-
mentative fight lasting through the great
ct part Of two sessions of the board
The plan Of Mr Callahan, characterized
as "instillng new blood into the board
of directors, was then opposed by the
older and more conservative portion OF
the body, ana it is this portion of the
members who, it is understood, are active
iy behind the plan to bring about the re-
peal of the bylaw
Mr. Rudolph yesterday in commenting
upon the proposed amendment. said be
felt confident he would not encounter
/ much opposition TINS year 10 the repeal
OF the clause. He said it was an un-
reasonable restriction upon the SERVICE Of
a good man upon the board. He also
said he had figured it out that this linn
iting clause really hampered the free
choice of the body in the election of di-
rectors. and this he held was contrary
to the American idea of free action in
such bodies
Mr. Rudolph stated that the purpose Of
the amendment vas to break up the old
custom of the board of trade in re-elect-
ing men who had served long In the direc-
tory. Under the rule as it now stands,
John Joy Edison. 4. T. FaTden, Archibald
Greenlees. George II. Harries, James B.
Lambie. Crosby Noyes. Ellis Spear, and
W z Van WiCkle would retire from the
directory and new members would be
elected in their places \ majority Of
these men have served several successive
terms as directors, and IL is likely that
some of them would be reelected but for
the rule adopted last year. Il is under
stood TO be the intention of the older
members of the board of trade to repeal
the bylaw before the time for the an
nual election of directors.
