Complete cooperation will be given

CHlCAGO-Billy Baxter, old time
minstrel who has played with nearly
all the leading minstrel companies OF
America and who has appeared before
the royalty of Europe with his banjo,
died at a hospital here of cirrhosis of
the liver. Born in Cincinnati in 1861,
he turned early to the stage where his
musical talent soon won him place
among the stars of minstrelsy. He
made several tours of the world and
on several occasions rulers of Europe
requested him to play and sing the old
''darky" songs. ......
A few years ago he retired from the
stage and has since then made his

Nearly every night he entertained the

The overf1owing Of the Nile was the
chief event in all Of Egypt. Without
this pouring Of water over the land
once each year, the valley would be a
desert. The Egyptians at certain
period in their long history noticed
that when they first saw the star Sirius
early in the morning before sunrise
the Nile river began to rise and pour
over the banks. They personitied
Sirius as watchdog, watching the
sun and the Nile and the land Of
Egypt, its people, destiny and harvests.
The Egyptian name of the Nile was

The Roads of Paraguay.

the Roads of Paraguay
The roads of Paraguay are about i've
yards wide throughout, and the rees
meet overhead at height OF some
eighteen feet, thus forming tunnel OF
very uniform dimensions. In the clear
parts Of the tunnel-that is, where IL
is not choked up with the giant, net
tle-it is full from roof to ground Oh
enormous spiders webs stretching
clear across the road, the big trees
usually being chosen rs anchorages
and the total clear span being thus
more like eight yards than five.
The main cables or framework OF
the nets are composed Of five or six
strands of thick yellow web and are
almost as strong as cotton thread. The
rest Of the net is made up Of single and
double strands of the same stout ma
terial, which is as sticky as it is strong.
Every yard or so one Of these nets ex-
tends across ones path, making it nee
essary to hold q cutlass or q fairly
stout stick at arms length in front as
one walks.
The makers OF these troublesome but
picturesque distractions are large,
highly colored, gaudy looking spiders
with bodies that look as If they were
about to explode, they are so blown

At intervals in some more open space
where the sky is visible one Will no.
tice different kind Of web, far more
irregular in shape, but far larger than

space available in the tunnel, these
webs are stretched in complicated
mazes from the ground TO the very

clear spans frequently twenty or thirty
yards from one tree to another.
From these main cables smaller ones
extend to the ground-a drop Of fifteen
or twenty yards-and the spaces in be-
