Beaten to a Mum my.

Until pretty late in the eighteenth
century mummies entered into great
variety of drugs, balms and other
medicaments. AS the genuine mummy
was then expensive, recipes were Civ
en- by many ancient writer's for con-
yerting human flesh into mummy.
Usually only certain portions of the
body were used, and these were beat
en-, dried, macerated and spiced out of
all likeness to their natural condition.
hence "beaten to mummy" Numcr-
GUS illusions are made to the prac-
tice in ancient literature, and in an
old play, "Bird In Cage" are the
directions, "Make mummy Of my flesh
and sell me to the apothecaries."

by a mad bull. Most boys would have
run away, but Alfonso stood his
ground and, coolly lifting his rife,
brought the beast dead at his feet with
a well directed bullet.
Almost his first auto experience near

to drive car and invited some of his
ministers out for drive. They had no
alternative but to go. When they had
started the king took control of the car
from the chauffeur and sent it ahead

lently out. When they got up it was to
see the king sitting on the ground
holding his sides In a paroxysm of
laughter.
Alfonso was almost the first mon.
arch in Europe to drive motorcar.
A member of his household bought one,
and the young king, seeing 1t, insisted
on being shown how 1t worked Then
one day, when the car was standing
idle, he jumped in and started OFF at
fifty miles an hour round the grounds,
When at last he brought the car to a
standstill an official ran up and rated
him soundly for jeopardizing his life.

Spain and
Her Young
Monarch

%WN HERE is another boy king on
whom the eyes Of the world
are now focused--Alfonso Of
Spain--owing to the riots that
have broken out in his domain follow
ing the upheaval in Portugal. The
trouble in Spain comes as no surprise,
as it has been well known for months
past that storm was brewing in that
country and the police and military
have had their hands full to prevent
general uprising.
Barcelona is the great center of dis
content in Spain, and it is there that
General Weyler has been placed in
command. He has not only had the
anniversary of "bloody week" to deal
with, but has also been confronted
with miners strike. 1t was from
Barcelona that Alexandra Lerrout,
chief of the republicans there, is re-
ported to have sent his ominous mes
sage to Provisional President Braga
Of Portugal:
"Start your revolution. We will take
care Of ours"
Alfonso is fatalst. "What must
will happen" said he recently, Il have
had twenty-four years fun, and If I
go up in fireworks-well, there's a
bouncing boy to take my place, which
was not the case when my father
died" The wonderful training which
the queen mother has given him has
always been q matter Of comment all
over Europe.
The young king has crammed many
narrow escapes from death into his
short life. When he was a baby he
was found half choked in dirty
clothes basket. He had been kidnapped
and hidden there until an opportunity
occurred for taking him out of the pal
ace. This was really the origin of
Queen Christmas anxiety for his safe

has developed into almost mania

Golden Wedding

The home of Rev. and Mrs. w.
r. Arnold of 4Io Q street N. w.
was the scene of a beautiful "At
Home" and celebration Of the fiftietll
anniversary of their marriage on
Thursday evening, October 90 The
home was fttingly decorated with
palms and white chrysanthemums,
which made it a veritable summer
garden.
Rev. and Mrs. w. R. Arnold were
married in GAINESVILLE, Ohio, in the
fall of 1860 by the Rev. Solomon Fl.
Thompson, pastor of the A. M. E.
Church.
Rev. Arnold has been actively en-
gagged in the Christian ministry for
a number of years, having filled
many important stations, and also
served acceptably as presiding elder
of the Baltimore A. M. E. Confer
ence for number of years. About
two years ago Rev. Arnold, of his
own volition, asked to be retired,
which request was very reluctantly
granted because of the honest, up
right and reputable life which he has
lived before his people. Rev. Arnold
is a COMMUNICATE of the Metropoli-
tan A. M. Z. Church Of this city.
Mrs. Mary f. Arnold, who has help
ed verymuch in the n1aterialprogress
Of her husband, is also a conmuni-
cant of the Metropolitan A. M. E.
Church, and actively engaged in the
missionary work of the Baltimore
Conference Branch, being chairman
of the Mothers Meetings. Mrs.
Arnold's quiet and unassuming way,
yet sincere and untiring in Christian
work, has won for her the praise and
admiration of the entire body.
The host and hostess had pre-
pared a sumptuous repast for their
guests, the menu consisting of chick
ell salad, ice cream and cake and
fruit punch.
Rev. and Mrs. Arnold have six
children, all of whom are living ::
Two sons in Wilmington, N. c., one
being an undertaken and the other
a dentist; one son i'll New York city,
in business, and the fourth son is a
Government clerk in Washington,
D. c.; two daughters, Miss Laura
Arnold principal Of one of the public
schools of Washington, d. c., and
Mrs. Nettie Thompson, who resides
in Washington also.
In conversation with the hostess
about the numerous presents which
were received, she said that little did
she dream that they would receive SO
many handsome and appreciative
presents; that it was simply an AT
Home" to meet her friends and have
a social chat with them. Aside from
the many presents sent and brought,
many letters of congratulation were
also sent.
