@The airship America has been wait

"strong winds have been blowing

It's instant destruction.
"This has been the stormiest sum

Nearly all are from the north, and
a blizzard is now brewing.

BILE for him to start on his ncrthwarc

The short cablegram only intimates
the terrible struggle which must havt
been waged against the gales from the
north, The fact that the message wat
ten days in reaching Tromsoe, a triI
which ordinarily takes a steamer three
or four days, may indicate that thu

Even with this message the world y

OF QUEEN TIL

LONDON, Sept 13.-The most i'm
portant discovery in the archaeology of
Egypt this season--which has been
particularly rich in finds--is the tomb
of Queen Til. the second greatest royal
lady of the ancient kingdom. Her cof-
fin, which is in excellent preservation,
is thickly plated with gold.
Queen Tits tomb is deeply hidden in
a solid rock. and was found at the end
of a long passage. The coffin is richly
decorated with a feather pattern in
thin beaten plates of gold, with the
royal collar inlaid with precious
stones. Owing to the coffin having
opened by the swelling of the wood,
the mummy was much decayed. A
number of valuable objects strewn
about the tomb indicated the royal
rank of the mummy. There was a
large wooden slab, richly plated with
gold, which might have been shrine
door or the roof of canopy over the
coffin. A number of beautiful alabas-
ter vases-the tops decorated with
carved female heads were ranged
around the coffin. These indicated that
the mummy was that of queen, but
1t was unknown which queen untir the
name of "The Great Royal Mother Til
was discovered on the coffin. Severa
beautiful pieces of jewelry we're found
in the coffin.
