NEW BOOK ON EGYPT.
Professor in University Of Chicago,
Author of Fascinating History.


One of the recent accessionS to the
books Of the public library is fasci-
mating history of Egypt, by a talented
professor In the University of Chicago
A critic says of the book:
.Truth. in Professor Breasted's His
tory of the Ancient Egyptians" seems
not only stranger than fiction, but
more interesting and at. times more
charming. The interest lies in the
authors evident admiration for ana
sympathy with the Egyptians, and the
charm is revealed by the manner IN
which this admiration and sympathy IS
reflected in his style. Yet 1T is faluh-
full and profound history that he has
offered. and his own painstaking care
is revealed in the PREDATORY statement
that his work is based not upon pub
lished records of the monuments, but
upon the monuments themselves.
1.-The book begins with general sur
vey of the Egyptian country and the
causes that led to it's peculiar shape
and character, and then l;vides itself
into eight parts, which treat respect
iyely of the different periods in Egypt
ian history The shape of the country,
saws Professor Breasted, influenced It's
political development, and the dnces-
SAINT splendor of the sun" naturally led
to it's universal worship In no omer
country, he says, has there ever been
such attention to the equipment Of the
dead for their eternal sojourn In the
hereafter, and his account of the evo-
luton of these methods of equipment
is most interesting He tells In what
ways the Egyptians attitude of mind
toward art was different from the
Creeks declaring that the former
knew nothing of an art, devoted to the
pursuit and production OF the ldeahy
beautiful.
"He loved beauty as found In ma
ture, his spirit demanded such beauty
in his home and surroundings The lotus
blossomed on the handle of his spoon,
and his wine sparlsled in the deep blue
calyx Of the same flower; the muscu-
lar limb of the OK in carved ivory up
held the couch upon which he slept.
.the ceiling over his head was a starry
heaven resting upon palm trunk col
llrnns. each crowned with its graceful
tuft of dropping foliage; or papyrus
stalks rose from the floor to support
the azure roof upon their swaying
blossoms; doves and butterflies fitted
across his indoor sky; his floors were
frescoed with the opulent green of rich
marsh grasses, with fish gliding among
their roots, where the wild OK tossed
his head at the birds tWittering on the
swaying grass tops, as they sTove IN
vain to drive away the stealtaly weasel
creeping up to plumber their nests
mrhis ,1ntation shows how lovingly
Professor Breasted dwells upon the at
tractive features Of Egyptian history
and also reveals how profound and
authoritative history may be embel-
lished by grace of style

Justices to Accept No More Complaints
From poud Harvey Families.
IT NAV be difficult in the future for
the Douds and Harveys to break into
.i,rstice court to settle their family dill
ferences, which for months have ended
in assaults and the bringing, OF charges
OF one kind and another against varl-
GUS members of the two households
County Attorney j. H. Egermayer
this morning notified both of the CITY
justices to accept no more complaints
from the DoIds or Harveys when they
were made against members OF either
family, until he was first consulted.
This notice was served on the Justices
after County Attorney Egeranayer had
dismissed the case against Curnel
Doud. who was charged with using
obscene language, and who was found
guilty in Justice Millard's court and
who appealed to the district court.
The reason given for the dismissal
was that members of the board OF SUI
uervisors had notified Mr.. Egermayer
that they had grown weary paying bills
for the trial Of Doud- Harvey cases, and
they wanted no more bills from that
source. Twenty-Five witnesses were
involved in the case against Curnel
Doud, which was appealed to the dis
.trict court, and which would have
made the expense of that trial con-
siderable.

lNDETERMlNATE LAW GOVERNS
Twenty-Five Years Maximum Sentence
Board May Reduce This, But Not
Lower Than Minimum of Ten Years
With Good Time Alone Sentence
Will Be Almost Fourteen Years.

The state board of parole will fix the
shall serve for the murder Of John II.
Lepley, of Clifford, on July 20, 1907. Pell
is in the TT. Madison penttentiary,
where he was taken to begin his serv-
ice Immediately after his sentence by
Judge Bradshaw on Nov. 81. 1907
There are ia cases to be submitted
to the board of paroles, and of this
number sixty-four come under the In
Discriminate sentence law. Included in
the latter division is the case of Pell.
The board, it seems. under the new
law, takes into consideration the con-
duct of the prisoner after his convic-
ton, also his past record for crime OF
morality.
"Reddy'' Pells crime was the killing
of John III. Lepley. of Clifford. by ad-
ministering a blow, presumably with
some weapon, on the side OF the head.
The assault was committed on the eve
ming Of Saturday, July 20, and Lepley
died, without regaining consciousness,
on the morning of Sunday, July 81. Pell
was indicted on charge of first de-
gree murder, but Judge Bradshaw did
not allow this charge to be consid-
cred, because he believed that Fell
started out with the intention of Slug
ging" Lepley, rather than to murder
HIM On Nov. 81 Pell was convicted by
a Jury after 1t had been out eighteen
hours, the verdict being second degree
murder. On Nov. q Judge Bradshaw
sentenced Pell under the indeterminate
sentence law to serve twenty-five
years. The minimum sentence for sec
ond degree murder is ten years. and
the maximum life imprisonment. Ii the
board, and with Pellss good time alone
twenty-five years, fixed by Judge
BradshaN's sentence, may be reduced.
without any action on the part of the
borai, and with Pelrs good time alone
affecting the length of his sentence, he
could secure his release from prison
in thirteen years and nine months
