Methods Of Building and Wonderful
Accuracy of Measurement.

CtItCUs
Herodotus thus describes the build
ing of the pyramid of Cheops, and his
deductions are probably as correct as
those of any ~archaeologist Of today,
for the modern investigators have had
to depend very much on the a~ncients
Tor their interpretations of inscriptions,
etc:
This pyramid was first built in the
form Of a flight Of steps. After the
workinen had completed the pyramid
in this form they raised the other
stones by means of machines, made of
short beams. from the ground to the
first tier of steps. After the stone was
placed there it was raised to the sec
ond tier by another machine, for there
were as many machines as there were
of steps, or perhaps the same ma
chine. if it was easily moved. The
highest part Of the pyramid was thus
finished fr"t. the parts adjoining 1t
were taken next. and the lowest part,
that nearest the earth, was taken last"
One thing that has been especially
in the pyramids is the wonderful
accuracy of measurement. In the great
Of Gizeh the four sides have
l mean error of only s~ix-tenths Of an
nch and twelve seconds in angle from
perfect Square. The construction Of
his pyramid is thought to have en-
'loyed 100000 men for thirty years or
more, probably half a century.-Atlan-

Sampson of this city, has received
the high honor at Yale of being
one of eight Juniors who were
recently tapped" for member
ship in the Skull and Bones soci-
ETY., the leading secret society of
that university. The ceremony
is an impressive one, the honor is
one which is highly priced by
students of Yale. and is a mark
of distinction which follows them
after they have taken their
places in the professional or bus:
ness world. This for the reason
that there are only eight chosen
annually from among the hum
dreds Of students, and that they
are chosen because of merit, anI
not upon the basis of personal
popularity or favoritism. Other
societies at Yale are the VOLTS
Head and the Scroll and Keys,
in which it is also difficult to OBJ
tain membership. Mr.. Cornish is
also distinguishing himself as an
athelete, being quarterback for
his class eleven, and also a mem
Der Of the ball team. 1t is conf

make the varsity eleven, as he is
very husky and also an adept at

CONDITIONS NEVER
BETTER FOR CATTLE

E. W. Mckenzie, one of the
pest known ranchmen inTexas,
came in yesterday from Ell Paso,
where he now resides, says the
Kansas City Drovers, Telegram.
For many years, in fact, as far
back as anyone can remember,
Mr.. Mckenzie lived at Fort Stock
ton, in Pecos county, where most
Of his ranch operations were car
ried on.
If there was a time when a
cowman could put on airs, it is
right now, as we never have pass
ed through better times, ''said he.
Then Mr.. Mckenzie went on to
tell Of the big cattle deals that
have been transacted down there
this spring, and the eagerness to
get cattle over from Mexico.
And no man on earth ever
heard of such prices being paid
for buckskin Mexican cattle as are
paid now," he added. "They are
seizing them as soon as they cross
the line, and in many instances
paying as much for them as good
Texas cattle bring. A considerable
number are bought across be-
tween battles over the line, which
prevents wholesale importations.
"The conditions are favorable
all over the southwest country.
| have just paid visit to my new
ranch in New Mexico, east of the
Plcos. It actually rained there a
few days ago. People did not go
under shelter when it rained, as
they hardly knew what it meant.
This means good grass, and we
look for a large calf crop. Aged
steers have all been shipped out
to the northern grazing districts.

quest from Mr.. Earnest P. Bick-
nell, the National Director of the

graph something over $500 to

GREAT BANDS OF
CATTLE FROM MEXICO

Between $4,000 and rs, 900 head
of cattle in very good conditin are
on there way to the border from
points in Sonora. From ten to
fifty cattle buyers are hustling to
the border from points on this
side of the line.
There is the whole story, or the
meat of it so it were. The cattle
are very much desired on this
side Of the line, and the Mexican
will get the best for their hold
ings that they ever realized. The
possibility of so doing comes about
through an order issued among
custom officers along the line.
It recinds an order issued about
six weeks ago, in which the cross
ing of cattle was suspended.
Under the new ruling cattle can
be-crossed as freely as desired
upon observance of the usual con-
ditions, including bill of health,
dipping, and bond furnished by
the government.
Beneath the surface of this
order as relating to cattle, there
is a broader meaning, in that lift
ing Of the earlier regulations mean
that the Washington authorities
are apparently loosening in their
attitude toward the Constitution
alists. The order of six weeks
ago was promulgated because the
state forces were said to have
seized a large number of cattle
and to be ready to cross these to
realize funds. Whether this was
or is true or not the state will
receive a considerable sum in
taxes with the crossing of cattle
from Sonora, aside from any rel
venue that may be derived from
the sale of the confiscated cattle. |
It is expected that during the
next ten days thousands of head
will be put over the line, where
shipments got under way yester-
day, the first of the rush being
crossed over to buyers eagerly |
awaiting the supply, and agum-
ented all along the line within the
next few days.
1t is held, however, that in
cases where the state of Sonora
cannot show a bill of sale for the
CATTLE, a satisfactory arrangement |
must be made with the previous !
owner of the confiscated stock
before it can be crossed to the
United States. Tucson Citizen.
