This Is the third article in the
first series on European points OF
interest written especially for the
Ledger by Prof. Harrison A. Trek
Ter. It deals with the customs and
agriculture of Egypt and, as were his
other articles, is a most interesting
contribution. We have a second Sc
ries that has Just arrived which VIII
be equally as good reading and from
the attention his first articles have
commanded his new contributions
will no doubt be received with much
eagerness by Ledger readers.
Bonn, Germany, Dec. Is.
AS most American tourists omit
Egypt, Palestine and Greece in their
summer visits acros the Atlantic, l
i take the liberty to let my old
friends In Mexico know something OF
the present political conditions, and
something of the people themselves
in those Eastern lands which were
decaying or perhaps almost forgot
ten when Romulus mixed the first
batch Of mortar for the walls OF
Bone.
Europe to an American seems ''old"
and very novel. But Egypt, especial
ly the rural districts, are absolutely
in another world. The fee and the
turban the flowing robes, the cam
els. the curious sail boats on the
Nile, the mosques with their minerets
and on~ion-shaped domes, the cam
els and donkeys, raising water for
the palm orchards and rice, and the
distant pyramids about the desert
are very ~unEuropean, as well as un'
American.
Alexandria is the gateway for the
Occidental trade. Now a city o.
some three hundred thousand, II
/ perhaps does as great a business al
did the whole Of Alexandria's "worlc
empire" when he founded this city
On the left, as we enter the harbor
is an extensive palace of the Khed
i've. He never sleeps there for some
religious or other reason. But de
spite the little use to which 1t u
put, 1t occupies many hundred feet o
valuable harbor space, and for l
taxes must have been levied which
brought starvation to many a miser
able Egyptian.
This reminds me Of a conversation
had a couple of days ago with
German. He boosted that his Kai
ser received eight times the salar'
of our President and that the Gel
man army was nearly eight time
as large as ours. My best answe
to this was that in America we di
not haev to place a 2-cent stamp o
every five-dollar check we signed nc
was every farmer taxed for the mil
and carrots he sold in the street, 9
were our BARRIERS and physicians tai
ed in proportion to their business.
Some say Cairo is the farthe'
place on earth from Heaven. Som
say Alexandria is. Some that Pc
Said is. But Egypt gets the hone
in any case. Immortality has abs
lutely no restraint. England has
general oversight and some seve
teen thousand troops in Egypt al
the Soudan, but the civil affairs a
left entirely to the natives. W
give an incident of native COVER
ment, One evening | was standii
before my hotel when a crowd gat
cred about some postcard vende
who we're fighting. After some tn
native policeman arrived, and
stead of separating the contendi
parties with his club, he gave ca
a kick and a cuff. The parties vii
drew some distance and commenc
to lombard the pillar of the law wi
strong language. Not understand

Court to-day transferred Sam B.
Cooks libel suit against the st.
Louis e-Democrat to the court
en- banc.
The four judges were evenly d.
yided. Judges Lamm and Graves.
in an opinion by Judge Lamm, were
for reversing and remanding the
case. and Judges Woodson and VAL
liant dissented, hence there was no
opinion and the case was transfer
red to the court en- bane for a hear
ing in January.
Judges Woodson and Valiant con-
sidered the judgment of $4,000 ex.
cessive, but they did not state what
amount should be allowed.
Judgment for $4,000 for Lee Meri-
wether against the st. Louis Repub-
lie was affirmed in an opinion by
Judge Lamm. All concurred except
Judge Valiant, who did not sit.
ii Dixie futile, who was found to be
insane and taken to Hospital No. 1,
at Fulton, Mo-, a few weeks since,
was brought home by her father
s this week. Miss Tuttle was arrest
e ed for criminal libel, previous to hel
being found insane. We understand
that the proper officers Will re.arresi
Miss Tuttle and bring her befor'
the grand jury unless she is takel
back to the Hospital. II she is In
sane, she should be in the hospital
If not, she should be made Z
Il stand trial under the charge OF i
IS bel.
Miss futile was not discharge
at from the Asylum as cured, but D;
rolled. If she had been q count
d. patient she would not have bee
lg taken out, but being a private p
tient her father has the right to r
move her from the institution al
