CHAPTER XXX.
A Sunday Spectacle.


Trouble with the tribes was well
grown before IL was recognized. Dis
affection was ripe, the bucks were
heady, the white mans silver acting
like wine. Few of the braves had
dreamed of ever possessing sums of
money such as they drew down each
Sunday morning. Richard began TO
suspect liquor again. In the Indian
camp Sunday was day of feasting,
followed by a gorged sleep; the next
day one of languor, of growing inco-
hesiOn.
Richard spoke of ii to COronel.
Like small baby" hunched the old
shoulders. Happy baby. Pretty soon

With the next wages went a repri-
mand. then a warning. Still followed
bad Mondays. Richard then issued a
formal warning 10 all the tribes.
The situation with the Indians is
serious" said Richard to MacLean.
They're getting liquor in here. some
way, the Lord only knows how. Any
way. they're not fit for burning Mon
day morning. I've just sent them word
by Coronel that it's got to quit, or they

startled. Not an Indian could be
spared at that stage of the game.

won't take the chance of losing that
money. I'm Off now to the Crossing.

The next morning Wooster broke in
to the ramada where MacLean sat
clicking his typewriter.
"Everythings up. Richards done 1t

MacLean found Wooster at the river

were watching pile-driver set re-

There was an ominous quiet the next
day. Not an Indian offered to work al

their tasks on Tuesday morning; they

4000-37oo B. c., whose objects are
to be found in the First Egyptian
room, the most interesting whilom
parsonage is the middle class Egyp-
tian, who has been previously re-
ferred to in this chronicle. He is as
comfortable after six thousand years
of death as might be expected. al
though the fact that he was buried
in a contracted fashion, after the
manner Of his day, leads to the be-
lief that perhaps for such a long
stretch he might have been happier
were his knees more remote from his
chin. 1t was not until many dynas-
ties had crumb,ed that this SUPPOSE
ton was acted upon and interments
made at full length.

Recent archaeological investiga-

grave, "have determined that the
earliest inhabitation of the Nile Val
ley by the race we now know as the
Egyptian took place about 1000 B.
c. Slight traces remain of the viii
lagos or habitations of this early
period, but their cemeteries have
been found throughout Egypt proper
and in Nubia. The interments ar.
in the contracted position, lying al
most uniformly on the left side, with
the head toward the south. In the
grave, about the burial, are found
pottery and stone vessels containing

and the burial chamber beneath the
center Of the limestone structure is
so tiny by comparison as to warrant
the belief that the pyramid supplied
everything to be reasonably ex-
pected in the way Of protection.
The "false door" Of Nekanhor Is
among those present, with the full
title chiseled In stone and running
as follows: Kings Descendant,
Judge and inferior Scribe. He Who
Is Over Secrets. Priest Of Maat (the
Goddess Of Truth), He Who Rem
ders True Judgment, Kings Priest,
Priest Of Userkof. Priest of Raem-
sops." If the tomb failed there
never was any doubt that an Egyp-
tian dignitary would be sufficiently
buried by his official titles.

dence would seem to be that chief
reasurers have rather fallen off in
heir appearance during the last
1000 years.
After the body was properly
picked in brine, as Herodotus AYERS,
the mummy was laid in the coffin on
it's left side, with the. face toward
the eye panel, without which no cof-
fin was complete. The mummy was
covered with a shroud, with a string
drawn at the neck, the highly deco
rative false face, manufactured from
layers OF papyrus, obscuring the
genuine article. The body was then
ready for its sarcophagus, and when
exhumed centuries later is virtually
as well preserved as ever, as in the
case of the said Ukh-Hotep. 70 be
sure, Ukh Is dead. but in death, so
to speak, he has outlived many a
gentleman who did not follow the
Egyptian method.

the original owner Of the tomb, who
was a judge, and appropriated it
himself. This necessitated some al
terations in the general decorative
scheme, consisting mostly of abbrevi-
ating the skirt of the powerless
judge to princely lengths and eradi-
eating the name of the original
owner as often as it appeared. 1t
is certain that Ra- En- Kai had not
completed things to his entire salts
faction when he was called to the
great beyond, although he had done
pretty we'll by himself, causing his
figure to be drawn here and there in
heroic size, as was the custom, with
his son diminutive figure at his
feet. Although the son is in erect
posture, a horizontal line drawn
from the top of his head would
scarcely more than pierce the ankle
bone Of his illustrious father.
