EGYPTIAN ANTIQUITIES.
Explorations on Excavations Reported
by British School of Archaeology.

Results of the archaeological ex-
plorations and excavations in Egypt
the past season have just been report
ed by the British school of archaeolo-
gy. Several material acquisitions have
been made, along with new scientific
discoveries. Methods of excavation are
necessarily native-not much farther
advanced than when the pyramids
were piled up.
They have found at Memphis more
sta tuary and sculptures of the eigh-
teenth and nineteenth dynasties by
clearing another one and one-half
acres of the great temple of Ptah.
1t was learned that Shishak decorated
the temple with cornice. Gradually
the great clearance of this historic
site is extended year by year. and it
is expected that the new law by
which the government claims every
thing found in private land will not
be exercised to check this work. The
buried city has yielded all the various
stages of the manufacture of stone
vases, from the rough block to the
vase spoiled in finishing.
A complete skeleton was found in
grave with pottery surrounding it at
Tarkhan. The man was lying on his
left side. with his knees 9lrawn uD and

Machias Desperadoes
Are Taken Without
The Loss of Life
On Friday
Clever Work by Woman Leads
Officers TO Easy Arrest

Machias, Me, May 10-Mrs Webster
aarmon's hot biscuits and maple
syrup Friday night proved the UNI
doing of the three boy desperadoes
who have been terrorizing this region
for nearly all of last week.
After spreading the warning that
they would shoot any officer on sight,
they were gathered in without
chance to make a fight. They will pass
the rest of their minority in the state
School for Boys.
Since Tuesday Deputy Sheriff Coffin
and a posse have been searching the
woods for three Swede boys, Ernest
Charles and Earle Holstrom, whose
ages range from to ID years. Their
home is in Marshfeld and they are
accused of general looting of cottages
and sporting camps The last esca-
pade was a raid on Mrs. Janet Coles
house at Hadley Lake, from which
they obtained money, watches and 9TH
er valuableS.
Coming to Maehias they bought a
supply of provisions which, they said
were for their father They secured
some ammunition also and took to the
woods. All had rifles, reVolvers and
hunting knives and are familiar with
the forest. They told other boys that
they were going to their hidden cave
where the trail would be guarded night
and day and that they would shoot to
the last cartridge before they would
be taken.
People have not dared to venture in
to the woods as the boys were known
to be irresponsible and likely to
shoot. Wednesday night Charles Hell
strom was seen in the pasture of Capt.
Johnson at Marshfield. Johnson at
tempted to capture the boy, who drew
a hunting knife, slashed Capt. john
son in the hand and arm, and, run
ming to the river, jumped in and swan
across, disappearing in the woods.
Last night the trio appeared in the
dooryard at Webster Harmon's place
in Marshffeld and asked for eggs. Mrs.
Harmon. invited them to supper and
they allowed that they were a bit hun
CRY. She placed before them hot bis
cults and maple strip, after asking
them to leave their rifles in the kit
chen. which they did.
Mrs. Harmon managed to telephone
to Deputy Sheriff George A. Leighton,
who told her to keep the boys enter
tanned until he arrived. Making a de-
tour, he secured the weapons and then
made quick dash into the dining
room, where he captured the boys
with their mouths full of hot biscuit.
They were taken to their fathers
home for the night and brought here
Saturday morning, where they pleaded
guilty and were sentenced to the
State School for Boys.
The father said that he was unable
to do anything with the boys and 1t
would be a great relief to him to know
for the first time in years exactly
where they were and what they were
doing. 1t is said that the boys have
declared that they have large amount
of plumber hidden in the woods, but
they denied this in court.

HARDY TUSCAN WOMEN.
One Vigorous Old Dame Who Acted as
Mountain Guide.

Illustrative of the hardness of wo-
men in Tuscany, Sir Francis Vane
relates in walks and People in Tus-
cany" the experiences of two English
men who were travelling in Italy and
who appealed to village innkeeper
for a trustworthy guide to conduct
them over the pass between the noun
tains of Rondinajo and Ire Potenze.
To their surprise an old woman ap-
peared and announced that she had
come to make arrangements for the
journey. They concluded she must
be the mother of their guide
What was our amazement to learn
that this elderly dame was our destin-
ed leader, and indeed she was got up
for the fray in long boots and short
skirts.
ION we tramped, she always ahead,
walking with a fine military swing
which q lifeguardsman might have en-
WED. The path was difficult and could
not be used by vehicles. Our guide
led us up the steep way which follows
small and rushing stream issuing
from out the side of Rondinajo, and
up it we assembled for an hour or more
until the pass was reached.
1--WE here had the merciful intention
of sending the old woman back, an
intention however. she very strongly
opposed It was only by allowing her
to come some few miles farther on
that we could induce her to leave us
before she had seen us safely to the
end of the journey"

his hands before his face. A similar
example in an almost identical posi-
ton is on view in the mummy room
of the British Museum. In the previ-
Gus year great cemetery of the first
dynasty (o50o B. CD had been partly
explored at Tarkhan, about forty
miles south of Cairo. This year the
valley was cleared and found to con-
tain some 800 graves closely grouped
on each side of an axial road. These
were carefully cleared, all the bones
measured, the skulls removed wher-
ever possible. plans drawn of each
grave and of the whole cemetery, and
the form of every vase of stone or of
pottery exactly registered. This forms
the most complete record yet made of
any old Egyptian cemtery.
The preservation Of the tonlbs in
the cemetery of the Tarkhan is re-
marSable, it is reported. Owing to
the sand filling up the valley the bod
les have been less disturbed than is
usual. and the upper structures have
been lett in some cases absolutely per-
feet. The brick wall which retained
the pile of sand above the graves, the
little Sits in il for the soul to come
forth to the offerings, the Enclosure for
the offerings. and the stacks of pot
terry brought to the graves by the re-
latives and friends with food and
drink for the dead, all were uncover
ed exactly as they had been left over
1900 years ago. In the graves were
large numbers of alabaster vases,
slate palettes, and pottery vases. All
the types of these when compared
with those of the royal tombs serve to
date the graves to the various reigns
shortly before and after Mena. Sew
eral blue glazed vases were found,
showing that such glazing was COM
monty in use.
Two new types of ivory spoons were
found, one engraved on the bowl with
birds and plants, the other formed as
two arms for the handle. with con-
Joined hands for the bowl. Alabaster
stools, with legs four or five inches
long, were used for supporting dishes.
Many graves contained strings of car
nelian. garnet, and blues glazed beads.
AS whole, we get a view of the
population, apart from the wealth of
the king and court and see that they
had good furniture, fine vases, and
plenty of ornaments, and were appar-
emily in quite as civilized a condition
as the Egyptians of later ages. AL
though the damp of the valley pre-
vented the removal of the bones,
which were all measured as they lay,
yet by extreme care some seventy OF
the skulls have been preserved by SOL
idifying with paraffin wax, and these
will be studied.
