DROP CURTAIN OF TAPESTRY
New Chicago Thsatsr Has Only One
In United States.

In United States.
The new Blackstone theater in Chi.
cago possesses the finest stage curtain
in the United States, If not In the
world. 1t is a solid piece of imported
tapestry and cost $4,000 without in
Guiding the duty.
There are only two other theaters
in the world that have curtains of the
same kind, and neither Of these, it is
said, is as fine a piece Of work as the
Blackstone's. One Of these curtains
is at Milan and the other in Russia.
No Paris playhouse has such cur.
tain, and there Is none in England.
The curtain was woven especially at
Aubusson, near Paris.
1t is the largest single piece of tap
estry ever imported into this country,
measuring 30h by ~ feet. The work
Of painting the cartoon was begun
two years ago in the studio Of NJ. Le-
maille in Montmartre, Paris. The
weaving was begun last June at Au-
bussOn.
The tapestry is in part a reproduc-
ton Of one of the famous tapestries
owned by Napoleon l. and now hang
ing in the Louvre. 1t depicts a group
Of young people dancing on the green
in the time of Louis XIII.

TO appreciate the motives which i'm
PEELED the ancient Egyptians to invent
the art Of embalming it is necessary
to throw our minds back nearly sixty
centuries. Then Egyptians were in
the habit Of burying their dead in
shallow holes scraped in the soil i'm
mediatcly 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 process Of
decay, it became desiccated and pre-
served in an incorruptible form for
an indefinite time. The burial Of ,:lr-
able 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 dead body. In this way
it became part of the religion of the
Egyptians to regard the preservation
of the body as the condition of the
attainment of immortality.
The early Egyptians learned that the
body when placed In a coffin or buried
in a rock tomb usually underwent de-
composition. 1t was widespread be.
lief that the stone late the flesh
hence the word ''sarcophagus." Arti.
fetal mummification, therefore, had its
origin in an attempt to deprive the
grave Of it's victory.-British Medical

A Compliment For Him.

She was eighteen and very shy, and
che never had been in the city before.
There was no one at Broad street ste.
ton to meet her, and she looked about
timidly for cab. Her mother had
told her to take hanson. She did
not see any hanson; nor did she
know that the 'cabbies" wore a livery
Ill their own. She did not see police
man either, SO she approached a youth
who was standing on the corner OF
Fifteenth street with her bashful ques-
ton.
"Please," she began, "are you han
som man,
The youth raised his hend and
twirled his mustache ingratiatingly
smiling with deprecating assumption
Of modesty.
II am 80 considered" he replied

Eugene Henard, architect of the city
Of Paris, purposes converting the roofs
of houses in Paris, London, New York
and other great communities to be
used as landing places for aeroplanes
They can be decorated, he suggests
with shrubbery and flower beds.
1T soon will be absolutely neces
sary," he says, "for all large cities to
erect as landmarks large towers OF
lofty spires Of very distinct shape
and furnished at night with beacons
at the top. When aeroplanes and bal
looms have been brought under proper
control aviators will fly from one root
terrace to another, starting and land.
Ing as they please.
Special Elevators Needed.
Each building will have to have big
elevators capable Of raising the ma.
chimes ready to start and to take them
to their hangar on their return.
"Aeroplanes will be divided into two
classes-light ones Of the bee type and
heavy ones Of the bird type, or dirigi-
BILE balloons, and unless we wish to
retrograde to the prehistoric period of
cave jewellers and unless We armor our
terraces like battleships we will have
to have aerial police to regulate the
movements Of flying machines.
"And the great capitals should have
structures arising to height Of 500
meters to be used also for wireless
telegraphy. The conquest of the air
will bring with it peace and wealth.
The cities Of the future more than
those Of the past will be capable Of
transformation and establishment. In
them will be erected magnificent tow
ers to call the flying giants from all
points of the horizon. Perhaps these
beacons eventually may arise to at
tack the clouds themselves
Ono Hotel Prepares For Rush.
There is but one new building of
note erected In America which uncon-
sciously followed Mr. Henard's advice.
This is a twenty-five story hotel on
the Chicago lake 'front.' the roof of
which Is fitted as an aeroplane landing.
Mr.. Henard proposes also that great
cities handle their ground traffic by
building one street above another. He
ridicules the tenacity with which pub
lie officials cling to the idea that the
bottom of the street must be on level
with the ground in Its original condi.
ton.
He suggests starting with the oppo-
site idea, with the pavement and car
riage way as bridge roadway. Thus
streets with very heavy traffic might
have three or four superimposed plat
forms. according to requirements.

Breaking the Sabbath.

Two Scots, one old and the other
young, set out one bright winter Sun
day morning to walk ten miles to kirk,
The sun shone gloriously. The frozen
road rang under their feet. The cold,
pure air was as exhilarating as wine.
The younger Scot looked up at the
glittering blue sky and said:
ITS fine day"
The older man frowned and an
swered:
"Aye. it is a fine day, but is this a
day to be talking about days?"

MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS.
TWO SENATORS ELECTED.

WV eCIN4 O1NO AA-A-O 1 AO'
While a good many states OF the
United States went democratic at the
last election, and elected democratic
legislatures that will return democratic
United States senator's, and at the same
time elected democratic congressman
enough to turn the control of the next
congress over to the democrats, North
Dakota remained in the republican col
umn. North Dakota elected two repub-
lican congressman, and yesterday the
legislature elected two republican Unit
ed States senators. So that North Da-
kota remained true to her republicanlsm
in national affairs and is not shaken
from her party allegiance by little
temporary political furry.
Both Senator McCumber and Con-
gresham Gronna are we'll known i'll the
history and politics of the state. They
have differed sometimes i'll their views
and in their public actions, but it is to
the credit of the republicans of the state
to say that both men have been given
credit for integrity of public service and
honesty of purpose. That is, after all,
the main thing. Senator McCumber was
member of the finance committee that
made the tariff bill. That was not a
perfect bill, but Senator McCumber la
bored to bring out of the confusion of
suggestions as good bill as possible,
and to benefit his constituents of this
state Mr. Gronna supported the house
bill, but did not vote for the bill as
finally passed. The people Of the state
elected beth men to the senate. 1t is
safe to say that both were given credit
for honesty of purpose and desire to
do the best possible for the people of
North Dakota and of the country.
Senator McCumber was elected to the
senate first twelve years ago. In the
two terms he has served he has advanced
to the front of the senate, has now
an important place in the deliberations
of the upper house of congress and is
III line for still further advances as the
membership of the senate changes SEN
ator McCumber is clever speaker, a
close student of public affairs, hard
worker and loyal to his constituents,
the people of the state. His election
yesterday was the we'll earned reward
of earnest and efficient public service.
Congressman Gronna has been in pub
lie life i'll the state for number of
years. He has worked hard and faith
fully for the people of the state and
no member of congress had paid closer
attention to public affairs and been
reader to serve the people of the state
in every possible way. His advance.
ment to the senate by the direct vote
of the people must without doubt be
pleasing to his as it is to his friends
and admirers through the state. Mr..
Gronna will serve the remainder of The
term for which Senator NJ. N. Johnson
was originally elected. and there will
be no further senatorial struggles in
the state for four years at least. North
Dakota will be we'll and creditably rep
resented in both houses Mr.. Hanna
and Mr. Helgeson will constitute the
state delegation in the lower house. Both
are intelligent, upright and hard work.

ated, so far as its whole congressional
delegation is concerned
