When Exe,esident Taft Was Married

It was formerly a pleasant custom of society reporters to indulge in pre- dictions as to the glorious future of the happy pair. A Journalistic prophet of the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette, in writing of the wedding of Miss Helen l., Heron, daughter of John w. Heron to William Howard Taft, which occurred twenty-seven years ago, had this to say;
 William II. Taft is one of the young men of the city who may be depended upon in public affairs. He ia one of the highest standing of the graduates of Yale. and his original powers. perfect integrity and courage and correct instincts. as we'll as thor ough information. have made him use ful, won for him the friendships and enmities most complimentary, and opened for him a career that has the highest promise of great distinction" :"

Some weeks ago there was prineeu
all over the world an account OF some
astonishing discoveries made IN re-
gard to the famous Sphinx at Gizeh-
1t stated that Dr. Reissner. who has
for some years been working on be-
half of the University of Harvard. had
made some most astonishing discov-
cries in the interior OF the great
statue of the Sphinx, which for CEN
turtles has been the guardian OF the
royal metropolis at Gizeh.
Had 1t not been for the unjustin-
able use of the name Of DR.. Reissner,
who is we'll known as an explorer ana
one of the great authorities on the
prehistoric antiquities OF Egypt, the
account would have been treated with
the ridicule it deserved.
According to the account PUBLISH
ed extensively in England and Amer
lea DR.. Reissner had discovered a
large temple over 100 feet long with
in the body of the Sphinx, and. con-
nected with this by tunnel. second
small temple, some 60 feet long by IA
feet wide, in the head of the Sphinx
The larger temple was described as
the tomb, of Mena or Menes, the first
of the Pharaohs, and drawing was
given of an ebony tablet inscribed In
archaic characters which was said tc
have been found in the temple.
The announcement of this startling
discovery caused immediate inquiry
The chief authorities at the Cairo
museum. Prof Sir CASTOR Maspert
and Captain Weigali, the inspector o.
ANTIQUITIES for the Cairo district, boil
denied the slightest basis for the re
port. No attempt to explore the In
j terror of the Sphinx had been made
nor would any such explorations b.
allowed. as the nature and characte
of the monument are already wei
known. Moreover DR.. Reissner ha
not been working in the Cairo prov
ince this season, having been, as TO
the last few years, in Nubia and tn
Sudan. The absence of DR.. Reissue
j from Cairo was no doubt the reaso
for the selection of his name in col
nection with the hoax.

me true story OF the Sphinx, whlcn |
is very simple, remains, therefore, un-
changed. The great limestone block
out Of which the colossal figure Is
hewn forms the eastern termination
of the limestone platform on which
the pyramids are built. No doubt IN
the remote prehistoric times the pro-
jecting rock had become weathered
into the rude outline of the human
head and face. There are many SINH
lar wind worn rocks to be seen on the
banks of the Nile, and there Is usually
a superstitious sanctity attributed TO
them by Arabs, no doubt inherited
from the old Egyptians.
In early historic times, certainly be-
fore the age of the pyramid builders,
some 1000 years before our era, the
figure was improved by human hands,
the headdress and beard being carved.
while in later ages the whole was
painted red, which gives 1t the ap-
pearance of sandstone.
Portions of the serpent which
adorned the forehead Of the Sphinx
and of the beard are to be seen In
the British museum. The nature OF
the stone and painting are clearly to
1 be seen.
The Sphinx of Gizeh figures little In
