centuries. Then Egyptians Were in the habit of burying their dead in shallow hales scraped in the soil i'm demiately beyond the limits of the narrow strip of cultivated land. As
 the result of placing the body in hot dry sand. it frequently happened that
 instead of undergoing a process of de cay. it became desiccated and pre- served in an interrupted form for an indefinite time. The burial of vaIu- able and and useful objects with the dead naturally led to grave-robbing. which was already common in the earliest known prehistoric times in Egypt. This plundering of graves must have taught the people at large that the forces of nature were often sufficient to preserve a dead body In this way it became a part of the religion of the Egyptians to regard the preservation of the body as the condition of the attainment of i'm mortality.
 The early Egyptians learned that the body. when placed in a coffin or buried in a rock tomb, usually under went decomposition. It was a wide spread belief that the stone "ate the flesh"-hence the word "sarcophagus :" Artificial mummification, therefore. had it's origin in an attempt to de- prive the grave of it's victory-Britfsh Medical Journal

 Turn in the Line of Callers.

Washington, Dec. 7.-"Jack Aber- nathy, United States marshal Of Okla home an appOintee of former President Roosevelt, came to Washington to hand in his resignation to the attorney general Charges had been preferred against the marshal, but he did not say what they were. Abernathy came east on leave of absence to answer the charges against him and to see Attor- hey General Wickersham.
 In the great rush of congressional callers, the marshal was kept waiting all morning. After demanding several times to see the attorney general Abernathy got tired of waiting and wrote out his resignation, presented it to Frank Cole, Wickersham's private secretary and stalked out. The mar shal announced he was going to New York, where he would see Roosevelt.
 T have business there he said, but of course I'll see the colonel. I didn't wait to see the charges against me, and have got no idea of what they are, but if such charges make me in- competent I don't want the job

PROSPERITY DINNER
 HELD THIS EVENING
Harry Gaskin Planning to Extend His
 Patrol Service.

Harry Gaskin. who recently or ganized a merchants patrol in the business district. by which he makes frequent visits to the fronts and rears of the stores of all his patrons every night. is now contemplating extending his activities to the residence section. He proposes to give a similar service 10 that portion of the city between Central avenue and Third avenue and between Washington street and Ben nett Lane If this proves a success he will take in more territory and if nec- essary employ more men.
 MT. Gaskin says that since he has been engaged in guarding the business part of the city he has been highly commended for his good work It is not merely catching thieves or fire bugs but protection against negligence that makes his services most Naluable For instance in the brief period re- ferred to he has found many store doors left unlocked, through the negli- gence of some one. One such was found as recently as last night. Should a thief make the same discovery he might easily have entered any of the places and robbed it.
 In the residence section he proposes to visit the front and rear of each property in his district every hour or half hour during the night to see that all is well. If he does not kill any burglars he may keep individuals of burglarious intent off his reservation. He will start a man canvassing the district mentioned on the 10th and if the project meets with favor he will begin his work on the 18th.

THE COMET AND STATE.
HOOD.

We would like to call the
attention of the honorable
gentlemen who grace the
United States senate with
their presence to the fact that
we are told by some scientists
that the tail of Halley's comet
is going to knock the ever
lasting eternals out of Ari-
zona on the eighteenth of
May. This may not be of
any particular interest to the
gentlemen of the senate, for
past actions in regard to Ari-
zona indicate that they don't
give a dam what happens to
Arizona, but it is more or less
interesting to the people who
are to be knocked. Arizonans
dislike the idea of appearing
before the pearly gates and
telling Saint Peter that they
come from a dependency of
the United States, one of its
colonies, so to speak. We
would all feel much better
about it if we could walk up
and proudly announce that
we are citizens in good stand
ing of the United States.
Won't the senate take ou1
feelings into consideration
and let us in before we &C
out?

DESTROY THE FLIES.

The summer season will be
here soon. 1t is one of the
most beautiful and enjoyable
seasons of the year, and mos
people hail its coming with
delight. But like all othel
good things, it has its draw
backs, and among these, not
the least are the flies.
While it is possible that
everything created has its use,
yet there are some things fol
which a use is difficult to find,
and certainly it is hard to say
Just what use are flies.
They are among the most
dangerous agencies in the
spread of disease, as they fly
from refuse heaps, dung piles,
sick rooms and various other
germ breeding places, into
the houses of the we'll and
strong, and there, with their
habit of mixing with food and
leaving the tracks of their
small but dangerous feet
everywhere, they distribute
the germs which they have
picked up and cause an enor-
nous amount of sickness.
1t is some trouble to get rid
of the flies, but it can be done.
Every house holder can keep
them out of his house if he is
careful and can aid largely in
destroying them, and this
this should be done, both for
selfish reasons, and for the
benefit of the health of the
community, for there are few
more dangerous enemies than
the common house flies.

ajo County Board of Health,

TO REDUCE INTERNAL

However, Recent Order from
Washington Has Not Yet
Reached Hammond.

A report from Cincinnati is to the eff
feet that there will be a big reduction
in the number of men who employ
cd by the federal government in the in
ternal revenue department. The fol-
lowing is the report:
Cincinnati, o., Sept. 13.-The reduc-
ton of Uncle Sans regular store keep
ers, gaugers and store keeper gaugers
in the internal revenue service from g.
800 to about 1.S0o. with a substitute list
of 500 or more was a recommendation
agreed on by the national federation of
United States internal revenue store
keepers, gaugers and store keeper
gaugers. which opened its third an
nual convention here today. The rec
ommendation specifies that as vacancies
occur no new regulars be appointed un-
til the force is reduced"
Frank Hammond. the deputy internal
revenue collector, was asked if this or
der would affect the business in Ham
mond. He said he had not head OF the
order, and that so far as he knew there
would be no reduction in the force here.

GLEN PARK SCHOOL ;.
TO OPEN MONDAY.
Trustee Jameson Will Turn
Over Funds to School
Board Today.

Preparations are being made by
County superintendent f. F. Heigh-
way to open the Glen Park school
south Of the Little Calumet river and
1t most likely that the school house
will be opened next Monday morning.
The attention of Superintendent
HIGHWAY was brought to the matter
by an article which was first published
by THE TIMES. Supt. Heighway i'm
mediately got in consultation with
Acting Trustee Jamison of Calumet
Township and he was ordered to turn
over the township school moneys to
the city of Gary with the assurances
that superintendent Heighway would
clear him of all responsibility. Mr..
Jamison was never hostile to the Gary
school board but wanted to protect the
interests of his office until he was ord
cred to turn over the money by the
proper authority.
1t is expected Trustee Jamison will
turn over the fund today.
The attention of the matter was
brought to THE TIMES office last Mon
day morning when T. ". Englehardt
appeared and stated that the school
house at Ridge Roau and Broadway
had not opened and that at least fifty
school chilren were without instruc-
tion.
