THE GREAT PHARAOH.
Horemheb Did More For Egypt, Per
kab5, ThAh AnY othsk

Horemheb at the time of his acces-
sion was forty-fve years of age full
of energy and vigor and passionately
anxious to have free hand in the car
rying out Of his schemes for the reor-
ganization of the government. 1t was
therefore with Joy that in about the
year 1850 B. G. he sailed up to Thebes
In order to claim the crown.
Had he lived longer he might have
been famous as conqueror as well as
an administrator, though old age might
retard and tired bones refuse their
Office. AS it is, however, his name is
written sufficiently large in the book
Of the worlds great men, and when he
died, about 1916 B. c., after reign of
some thirty-five years, he had done
more for Egypt than had almost any
other pharaoh. He found the country
in the widest disorder, and he left it
the master Of itself and ready to be-
come once more the master Of the en-
p1re which Akhnaton's doctrine Of
peace and good will had lost.

The bells of the Bastille are still in
Paris in little court in Avenue d'Ey-

rustic building. There Is no doubt as
to their authenticity. They carry in
relief their story "These three bells
were made by Louis Cheron, founder
to the court, for the royal Bastille in
the year 1851" Fleurs-de-lis, crosses
and sacred figures adorn the legend.
The bells formerly were part Of the
clock installed by NJ. Sartine in 1894.
In the archives de rarsenal are all the
documents relative to the work.
On July IA, 1889, the balls Of the

Musical Miracle.
Adelina Patti never suffered from
the financial timidity of a Jenny Lind.
Not only was she a supreme vocalist;
but, as Colonel Mapleson remarked,
mo one ever approached her in the art
Of obtaining from a manager the
greatest possible sum he could by any
possibility contrive to pay" But the
musical miracle was the spoiled dar-
ling of her day, and she never failed
to obtain exactly what she wanted.
She was first engaged in London in
1861 by Mapleson to sing four nights
ION approval and in case Of success
to obtain f4O a week. This contract
was not fulfilled, however, for, being
hard pressed financially, she had Dor
rowed ESQ from rival manager, and
her receipt proved practically con-
tract. This was the beginning Of
career so dazzling that it's successive
steps are simply a series Of increasing
banknotes. In 1872 she obtained in
London 200 guineas night, since she
insisted on having more than Christine
Nilsson, who was receiving 600. She
sang twice a week. Ten years later
she was given $1,000 night! Her ia
nous contract to sing in America pro-
v1ded that the money should be paid
her at 2 O'Clock on the day she sang;
also drawing room and sleeping car
to be especially built for her, with
conservatory, fernery, etc. Further,
there was to be deposited to her credit
$4,000 for payment Of the last ten
performances-Patti's favorite device.
She thus received about twenty times
what Mario and Grisi got.
Her private car incidentally cost
100000 and contained a silver bath
and gold keys to the doors, to say
nothing Of $1,000 piano. Patti gave
to the manager only her voice and her
costumes. Her drawing capacity justi-
fed this. Lucia" as an example, was
sung to an average OF $4,000. "Travi-
alta" drew more, since she sang more
notes. 1t was frequent occurrence
among the poorer music lovers to buy
a club ticket and each take turns at
hearing her for twenty minutes. II
one overstayed his time he paid for
the entire ticket. Some mathemat icians
computed by dividing the number Of
notes sung by the sum paid that In
"Semiramide' Patti received 42M cents
for each note. This was found to be
just LILO cents note more than Ros-
sini got for writing the whole opera

Cause Of the Trouble With Moors

KABYLE TRIBES TO BLAME.
Their Attack on Some Spanish Mines
Near MeIiIa Before the Spaniards

SPANS Foes Are Born Soldiers.

The Immediate cause of the trouble
at Melilla, Morocco, which has cost
Spain so dear, occurred on July 8,
when some Moors laid an ambush at
the Spanish mines on the railroad near
Melilla for the purpose Of making some
prisoners in order to exchange them
for Moors who had recently been ar
rested for an assault on a policeman.
Four of the miners were killed. There
upon detachment Of the Melilla gar
rison went out under General Marina
and routed the Moors, though not
without difficulty, as the bayonet had
to be used, and the Spaniards lost
4wenty-nine killed and wounded.
Spanish Mines Raided.
The remote cause of the Melilla trou-
ble dates back about year and half,
when two Spanish mining companies,
one of them operated with French cap
ital, began work at point about fif-
teen miles from Melilla under the pro-
section of Roghi Kaid, who then was
supreme in that region. In October of
last year the tribes revolted, defeated
Roghi and raided the mines, which
then ceased work. The Spanish gov
eminent proceeded to protect them;
but, although some Of The tribes did
mot object, others were hostile, and the

GREAT BASEBALL ENTHUSIAST
Career Of Harry c. Pulliam, Late Ma.
tionaI League President.

Career OF Harry 9. Pulliam, late Ma
tionaI League President.
Harry Clay Pulliam, president Of the
National League Of Professional Base
ball Clubs, who recently died in New
York by shooting himself, was born in
Scottsyille, KY, thirty mine years ago,
and soon after finishing his college
course he went to Louisville to take
up newspaper work He served part
OF the time in the capacity of city
editor, but was also interested in base
ball. In 1898 he resigned as city ed
ator Of the Louisville Commercial to
accept the presidency of the Louisville
club. Prior to that he had served a
year in the Kentucky legislature.
In Louisville Pulliam formed the ac-
quaintance of Barney Dreyfuss, now
the owner Of the Pittsburg club. They
were associated in baseball for num-
Der of years in Louisville and Pitts
burg. Dreyfuss became president of
the Louisville club, and Pulliam be-
came his secretary and treasurer.
When Dreyfuss got he'd Of the Pitts
burg club and transferred his players
there he took Pulliam with him.
One of Pulliam's greatest 'sdiscov-
cries" In baseball was finding Hans
Wagner, the best player in the game
today. Wagner was playing in Pater-
son, N. j., at the time, and Pulliam
went there on the recommendation of
friend and looked Wagner over. He
signed him to contract and took him
to Louisville.
Pulliam stayed with the Pittsbura
club until 1902, when he was elected
president Of the National league, sue.
ceeding N. e. Young. About the time
of his accession to the presidency
peace was brought about between the
National league and the American
league which had been at war.
Pullfam proved to be an energetic
official for the National league and
with considerable executive ability.
During his regime many vexatious
problems have arisen, and he always
was active and conscientious:fn dealing
with such matters. He was anything
but figurehead president. One OF

whole district became much disturbed,
so that it was not till last June that
the miners were able to resume work.
Under the treaty of 1860 between
Morocco and Spain the sultan is under
obligation to furnish regular troops for
the protection Of the Spanish possess
sions of Ceuta and Melilla against the
always more or less unruly Riff tribes.
But he has never done this, and when
Spain recently sent Minister Merry del
Val to Fee to call Mulai Hafids atteu-
tion to this fact the sultan not only
refused to listen, but insulted the min
lister. He refused to acknowledge the
mining concessions at Melilla and also
draw from points where they had
posted troops to prevent contraband
traffic in arms as condition prior to
any discussion Of the matter Then
the Spanish government voted $780,.
600 for the strengthening of the garri-
sons Of Melilla and Ceuta and no
doubt would have soon been much bet
ter prepared to deal with Moorish
attack, but the incident above related
precipitated a crisis before the Span
1ards were ready for it.
Born Soldiers.
The Kabyle tribes, which are of Ber-
Der origin, are the people with whom
the soldiers of Spain are contending
for supremacy on the Riff coast Of
Morocco. These tribesmen, who are
Sunni Moslems, are born soldiers.
Those of the plains have been recently
engaged in carrying out public works
connected with SPANS mining inter-
mountains by sudden raids have pc
riodically undone the work Of their
Drothers Of the plains.
The present revolt is due to the in
SEPARATION of the new sultan of Moroc-
GO, who recently, it is said, ordered
the Spaniards to evacuate the Riff
coast. The Kabyles, in carrying on
the revolt, are using some Mauser RI
tles which were sold to them for his
personal profit by General Margaollo,
governor of Melilla, who recently was
killed in sOrtie.
Spanish Forts In Ruins.
The Riff coast came into possession
@of Spain after the Moors had been
driven out Of Europe in the fifteenth
century and were pursued into Africa.
To prevent second Moorish invasion,
Spain began at once to fortify this
coast, and by the middle Of the sew
.enteenth century from Ceuta to Me-
Iilla and eastward as far as the Al
sgerian frontier was a strong line Of
Notifications. Most of the forts are
now far advanced in ruin, and all are
obsolete. Some had been evacuated
even as early as the beginning Of the
nineteenth century and, with the con-
nivance of successive Spanish govern
-ors, became the stronghold of pirates
