next rise in the Arkansas river would
cause that stream to cut through its
channel and through a strip of land
and merge with the Poteau river,
the board of municipal commission

appeal to Arkansas representatives III
congress asking them to immediate

natural confines.
Near Braden, Okla, the rivers ar
now but three miles apart. The
Arkansas has been making sue
rapid headway toward the Poteal
river that the Kansas City Southern
railway announced today 1t would
shortly abandon its stub line from Ft
Smith to Spiro, Okla, and woulo
build a new line connecting these
cities. The railroad already has eN-

1t was given out in railroad circles
this morning that the work OF filling
in the gap spanned by the Rock Is
land Frisco viaduct in northeastern
Ardmore will begin on the first OF
July. The Rock Island has had a
representative in this city for some
time who has secured all the required
right of way. The replacing of the
present unsafe wooden structure by
solid earth work with reinforced con-
crete abutments and steel span
across the tracks of the Santa Fe
will mark a much needed improve
ment and will enable both the Rock
Island and the Frisco to handle lar
ger and heavier trains into and from
Ardmore.

RELICS
FOR U. S. HOMES
Antiquities Found in Ancient
Cemetery to Be Given to the
Subscribers to Project
IBy Latest NALL

LOND0N.-The antiquities found
by the Egypt Exploration Fund work
ers principally in the cemetery at
Abydos have just been put on exhibit
ton in London Afterwards they are
to be divided among the subscribers
to the fund in England, the United
States and Belgium, and some lucky
folk may hope to have an object dart
nearly 1000 years old in their homes
at an early date.
In the first dynasty tomb, 1904 B.
c., the explorers found pair of ivory
lions, rather stumpy and square cut,
but still you wouldn't mistake them
for any other animal An alabaster
vase of about the same date is in a
perfect state of preservation and as
beautiful a piece of work as you
would wish to see. From tomb dat
ing from the twelfth dynasty (3064
B. c. comes an amethyst collar, with
graduated stones as carefully selected
by the jeweler of that age as those of
the famous pearl necklace that was
stolen recently from the post between
London and Paris.
Even the contortions of the Russian
danSeuSe were not unknown to the
old Egyptians, Judging by the frag-
E1ent of ian acrobatic dancing gkr'
in limestone discovered in a tomb
which dates from about 1900 B. G..
A portion Of the Abydos cemetery
was evidently set apart for the inter.
ment of the sacred Ibis, bird edu.
ment of the sacred Ibis, bird dedi.
Der Of mummified specimens of the
bird. with beautiful patterns designed
on them, are on exhibition. Some OF
re remains are still in the earthen
ware collins that have been in their
graves for from 5000 to 5000 years.
Next year the Egyptian explorers
are proposing to turn their attention
to the Temple of Osiris, where they
expect to make equally interesting
finds. The temple is believed to have
been built by one OF the sons OF
Rameses. At present it is deep dowr
in the desert, covered by the rubbish
thrown away by the explorers of the
Temple of Seti
