USING x-RAY ON PRINCESS
Suspicious of British Museums Off
Gals Regarding Egyptian Mummy
Are Allayed.

A distinguished scientist attached to
one of the government bureaus at
Washington suggests that there may be
such thing as using the X-rays too
much and too often, especially, he
contends, when the rays are made
the medium to pry into the antece-
dents of young woman of royal lin
cage, resting for the moment under
unjust suspicious
Every one knows that spurious
mummies have been planned off upon
the public. Recently a doubt arose
in London museum as to the validity
of one daughter of the Pharaohs in
the collection. 1t occurred TO the
museum officials that, in view of the
general hollowness of life, the young
woman in question might have been
manufactured in some up-to-date town.
So the officials at once turned the Ro-
entgen rays upon her, with the re-
suit that they Immediately perceived
through her many-folded wraps the am
ulets which the Egyptians placed upon
the bosoms of their dead. So the sus-
picions of the museum officials were
allayed. One of them remarked: ut
does seem little hard that after the
lapse of several thousands of years
lady should be suspected Of impos-
ture."

POPULATION GAIN OF 554
Census for 1912 Shows That Wausau is
Still on the Grow. Big Gain in
School Attendance.

The school census of this city shows
some interesting features, especially if
studied in comparison with that of
last year. 1t shows a gratifying in
crease in population, the total being
1865, gain of 554 over last year.
The gain in children between the
ages of 4 and 20 is only 90, the total
for this year being 6065, of which 1886
are boys and 3130 girls. There are
however 13 more boys than girls at
tending the public schools, and more
boys than girls in private schools,
making it look as though the boys
were given more advantages than
girls. The gain in attendance at the
public schools is highly gratifying,
the increase for the year berg 422,
although the private schools show a
loss of "A. OF the children of school
age, to 20 years, only two wards
show more boys than girls. These
are line Sixth and Seventh. The
SIEVE It'll ward enjoys the distinction
of having the largest population and
also of having made the greatest gain
in population A peculiar feature of
the report is that the First ward
shows a decrease both in population
and in the number of children of
school age. This is hard to reconcile
with the fact that during the past
year there have been a great many
new homes built in the First ward
and there are no vacant houses there
now.

An Early Insurance Scheme.

A very early scheme Of insurance
for the laborer took heed Of the wo-
man worker. In 1856 the leaping of
the poor rates gave birth to the pro-
posal of a Universal Benefit Society"
Mr. lakewood summarizes the scheme
in his "Good Old Times" Every la
borer between the ages of twenty and
thirty years." he notes, earning i0d
a day should contribute to a national
fund I'd a week, and every woman
earning e3 year 11zd weekly, and
when sick or disabled should receive
benefit at the rate of As a week, with
Is a week added for.each child. There
were, of course, many other details,
but the chief interest lies in the fact
that this was perhaps the earliest pro-
posal for the national insurance Of the
laborer against invalidity."

OFFER SHEEP IN SACRIFICE
Animals Killed at Steps of Palace In
constantinopIe on Feast Of
Rairam.

The idea of animal sacrifice seems
strange in modern Europe. But 1t must
not be forgotten that Constantinople
is Turkish, In spite of the numerous
desires or the part of other nations
to possess it-or rather because those
are so numerous.
The new regime In Turkey is up
to date In many things. 1t is establish
ing schools, planning railroads and
hoping to take its place by right, and
not by suffrance, among the nations of
the world. But the favor of the devout
Mussulman is sought by strict observ-
ance of religious festivals.
The second feast of Bariam IS the
occasion of sacrifice. Its date is varia-
BILE. since the Turkish year Is lunar,
and not solar. Last year came in
December and It lasts four days.
In anticipation Of this festival,
droyes of fat sheep were taken to
the city from Roumelia and Asia
Minor. The price varied from
81 to SIS. In all the rich and even
well-to-do houses these sheep were sac
riflced, and the flesh In most cases
gNec to the poor.
Naturally the most elaborate cers-
many was ct the royal palace of Dol
una Bagtche. The sheep, picked for
their wilderness and plumpness, were
solemnly led to the palace. At the
hour fixed the sultan, surrounded by
his staff, descended the steps and read
a prayer, while. the first of the victims
was led to the marble step that be-
came the sacrif1cai altar.
The sultan made the motions OF
killing the sheep, but actually handed
the knife to an officer, who waited IN
til the sultan had withdrawn before
completing the sacrifice.
In the last three years the custom
has grown up that the skins and wool
of all the sheep killed in Turkey that
day belong to the sailors.
One Of the old rites of Bairam was
to consign all Christians to massacre
This is now omitted in Constantinople
But it can be imagined that In the
oasis of Tripoli this part Of the cere-
monies Is carried out with emphasis.
