ToMBs OF THE PHARAoHs.
. Precautions Taken to Guard
Against Grave Robbers.

he Precautions Taken to Guard
Against Grave Robbers.
The ingenuity displayed by the an
Client Egyptians to prevent robbers
from breaking into the pharaohic
graves merits admiration from present
day engineers. writes DR.. Holscher.
chief architect in the Prussian govern.
ment, In a work on the sarcophagus
or Khafra. the builder of the second
Gizeh pyramid. who reigned in Egypt
some 5000 years ago.
The lid of the red granite sarconh
agus was dovetailed with minute
precision into the receptacle. To pre-
vent the cover from being drawn back
the Egyptian builders bored two holes
In the lid at the edge, not showing
above. These corresponded exactly
with two similar holes. less deep than
the other two. sunk in the front Of the
receptacle. Two copper bolts were then
placed In the lid holes. and at the mo-
ment the sarcaphagus was fully closed
the holes met and the bolts dropped
In position from the upper holes partly
into the lower. thus making 1t impos-
sible to move the lid.
1t must have struck the Egyptian
engineers that grave robbers might
get at the body by turning the sarcoph-
agus upside down. in which case the
bolts would glide back into their orig
inal position and permit the lid being
drawn out. To prevent this they filed
the lower holes with wax and made
the bolts hot. Upon the lids being
placed in position the bolts melted
their way into the wax and upon cool
ing became SO firmly fixed that moth
ing short of complete destruction could
open the royal tomb.
1t must have been herculean labor
to hew the whole edge away, but that
Is what grave decorators did. and the
wax can still be seen in the bore holes.

The judges White Gloves.

In the olden days judges were for
hidden to wear gloves on the bench
for fear Of brides being dropped into
them. If there were no cases to be
tried, however, there was no oppor-
tunity for bribing. and the sheriRs
might give the judge pair Of gloves;
hence the custom Of presenting |
Judge with pair OF white gloves

An Ancient Steam Man.

There are host of authorities on
hydraulics and mechanics that could
be quoted to support the assertion that
the steam engine is not modern in

LIKED THE FRYING PANS.
indians Found an Exciting Use For the
Cooking Utensils.

looking UTENSILS.
The Indian. however averse he may
be to any kind of useful labor. is not
slow to avail himself of new source
of amusement. This was shown some
years ago when among the supplies
sent by the government TO certain
dred large frying pans with long ham
dies.
These the Indian agent found liz
stock when he took possession. and at
the end of the year the number had
not been diminished Thinking that
perhaps he had not discharged his
whole duty in the matter of supplying
utensils. the agent began making spe-
cial efforts to induce the red men TO
use them.
At first 1t was hard work, but by the
time he had given out about two dozen
there came a sudden change. Not a
day passed in which the agent did not
have applications for at least dozen.
and some days he disposed of twice
that number.
When the supply was nearly ex-
hausted he noticed among the appli-
cants some to whom he had previous
ly given pans. and naturally enough be
became a trifle curious to know what
use they were making of them. He
questioned several of the men to no
purpose, but at length young buck
more communicative than the rest gave
him to understand that if he would
visit a certain part Of the reservation
| not far away he would find his in
quiry answered.
| The next day, therefore. the agent
rode out in the direction indicated.
About two miles from the agency he
noticed on the crest of narrow spur
Of the mountain three or four Indians
who suddenly disappeared on the op'
posite side of the ridge. At the same
| time he heard family the cry of many
voices.
On turning the point of the ridge he
saw a crowd of several hundred In
dams who were shouting as i greatly
| excited. He noticed also several OBJ
jects, which he at first supposed to be
powders, descending the side of the
mountain toward them with tremen
| dous rapidity.
Instead of fleeing from these moving
objects the Indians simply applaudee
and shouted. Soon he saw other OBJ
iects like the first descending. and in
short time the whole situation was
plain to him.
Having selected a long, smooth slope
of the mountain where there were M
stones, the Indians had converted i
into a sort of earthen toboggan slide
and were utilizing the frying pans a.
