The members of the bench and
bar who will this afternoon pay
their tribute to Justice Martin J.
Keogh upon his retirement will
speak for far wider circle OF
friends and admirers. For twenty
seven years he has served his fellow
citizens as a high-minded and warm
hearted judge. Few men in the en-
tire metropolitan district have been
so widely known and beloved for
every generous virtue.
1t was as a trial lawyer, the
ablest counsel for the defense that
Westchester County possessed, that
Judge Keogh gained his first fame.
The simplicity and vigor of speech
there developed were the natural
expression of his character, and they
never deserted him on the bench. His
decisions, alike oral and written.
were phrased with rare directness
and clarity. He was a judge who
in speech and in action never let
truth or justice escape in fog Of
legal verbiage or technicality.
Of Irish blood by every inherit
ance, he left no doubt during the
war of his stand. By his own words
and in the splendid service Of his
sons-begun with the Allies before
our entrance into the war-the
name of Keogh was recorded un-
mistakably on the side of right and
justice. He could have had the
nomination for Governor of the
state on several occasions. He pre-
ferred his chosen career and his
home town and his friends. He re-
tires to-day respected and beloved
as judge, as citizen and friend byI
the entire community, that knows
him. e.
He was a Democrat and judge
IN a strongly Republican district for
twenty-seven years. The Tribune Is
proud to recall that in 1909 it urged
and applauded his denomination.
The principle of non-partisanship in
the choice of the judiciary was
young then, and the words then
written in a Tribune editorial will
bear repeating now:
"The Tribune applauds tba resr,+
and the way it was ACCOMPLISHED
Doubtless personal reasons accom-,
IN part for the unanimity of the sen
tlment for Justice Keogh, but never
theless it seems reasonable to beIieva
that his denomination and the cir
cumstances surrounding 1t indicate
progress for the recognition of the
principle OF the. continuance of good
judges in Office irrespective of mol.
tlcs. 10 the spread of this idea The
tribune has contributed to the best
OF its ability, and we hope the dav
"1li come when it will be no lonpnr
necessary to speak of such a nor;-
nation as that of Justice Keogb -
unique"
Unfortunately, through the ac-
tlon of Tammany and a Republi-
can boss, the spread of this idea has
now been wantonly halted in this
county in the case of Surrogate
Cohalan. The act Is a long stem
backward from the fine example Of
Justice Keogh and the spirit Of his
career.
FOR all that he has stood for in
MS long and honorable years The
lil0one tenders to Justice Keogh

The erection Of the Arsinoe Temple at
Alexandria became the sensation of the
eastern world. And then Ptolemy Phila-
delphus further sought to pay homage to

spread influence of the Egyptian Princess.
To-day whenever the question OF the
building OF municipality Is brought be-

From the evidence of the great prodigality

that he was constantly devising new
methods OF increasing the source OF his
revenues and new devices for stressing the
already overpowering taxation of the
people.

Ruled Over Many Lands
BY Virtue of His Armies

II is admitted by all students of Egyp-
tian history that at no other time In the
knowledge OF the country did the intellec-
tual and literary splendor of the Alexan-
drian court exceed that of the reign OF
Ptolemy Philadelphus. Not only was he
the richest sovereign in the world but also
he dominated the naval power of the East.
The splendor OF the court at Alexandria
became known throughout the world, and
has been Of recent times compared to that
OF Versailles under Louis XIV. for the
heights OF extravaganza and brilliancy It
attained.
But while Philadelphus may have amused
the mobiles OF his court with devising new
means of spending the taxes constantly
pouring into his Golfers. still the figure Of
his wife was ever In his memory, and it Is
now agreed that undoubtedly due to her
influence was the appointment of Cali.
machus as keeper OF the Alexandrian IL
brary, and the installing OF Theocritus at
the head Of group Of famous poets.

ways been the background Of all that

let awnings upon the decks, which were
used in the royal professions and religious

Under his rule, Notwithstanding the
heavy taxes, the people seemed to prosper.
and trade grew with all the civilized world.
Trade down the Nile increased and all the
shores Of the Mediterranean sent ships to
Egypt. The people were rich and happy.
He had a happy faculty of controlling all
the various groups of nationalities and
ruled by their own laws and the Greeks
at Alexandria enjoyed liberty under the
Macedonian laws. His navy controlled the
eastern half of the Mediterranean Sea, and
Alexandria had become the metropolis of
the world. He drew the greatest poets Of
Greece to his court, and many Of the Greek
sculptors were glad to dedicate their efforts
to so liberal patron. His was a Golden
Age indeed for Egypt and the Egyptians.
Wild Extravaganza Cause
OF Egypfs Heavy Taxes
We already know that the method OF
taxation by the Egyptian Government was
different from ours in that it imposed d.
rect and heavy taxes upon the masses,
while the priests and princes were allowed
to keep their land and paid comparatively
little to the cost of government
Why did Ptolemy need so much money?
For the most intimate picture Of the ex-
travagance of the Ptolemy made possible
by the superabundant influx OF wealth
from his heavy taxes, we must turn to the
amazing narrative told by Prof. Lowell, the
British explorer, after his excavations at
Thebes, reproduced in a series of graphic
pen portraits, the strange, weird cere-
monies of old Thebes, then known as 1.-The
bias" and of Alexandria.
or course Prof. Lowell, after his exhaus-
tive study of the ancient papyr@ of Egypt
and of the hieroglyphic and Demotic script
inscribed on the slabs of marble left us,
has rightly concluded that in no other form
would the data he could furnish be as in
teresting to the reader as In the form Of
historical romance and although he has
had to draw largely upon his imagination
in reconstructing the scenes OF the Ptolemic
reign, still from comparison with the ma
terial furnished by other leading Egyptolo
gists the pen sketches Of Prof. Lowell
might very well have been written at the
time described He gives us then general
scenes, as he reconstructed them, present
ing a very clear view OF that voluptuous
extravaganza which made 1t imperative for
Philadelphus to find some new methods OF
increasing taxation and new sources OF
revenue.
Describing temple ceremony, for ex-
ample Prof. Lowell gives us vivid pic
ture of the erection Of the famous temple
built by Dinochares in honor of Arsinoe,
wife of Ptolemy Philadelphus at Alex
andria.
The long shadowed streets Of Alexandria
formed fitting background for the gor-
geous pageantry of the Ptolemy's procession
as II wound its way to the rivers edge,
where the temple was to be erected. Seated
among the silken cushions of his litter,
which was borne by twelve gigantic Nu-

happy memories dwelt upon the past; upon
the scenes of his married life with Arsinoe,
his beloved wife.
Never before in the history of Egypt had
a woman assumed so great an influence
over the country. Ptolemy loved her de-
votedly, and despite the fact that she for
feited all right to his love because she bore
him no children, still he loved her, and al
though she had died and left him a
widower at 30, he refused to marry again.
Pliny tells us OF the temple in Alex
andria, of the wonder and amazement
caused by its erection throughout the civil
lized world. Not only had the great
Ptolemy commanded Dinochares, the lead
ing architect OF the world at that time to
build the temple in his most skillful and
elaborate manner but also he ordered the
erection of a bridge made entirely OF load
stones so that the iron statue OF Arsinoe
might appear as IL 1t we're suspended in
midair.
But to return ~ the description fur
nished from the interesting study of the
ancient papyrR by Prof. Lowell:
AT the side of the litter bearing the
sacred body of the Emperor marched
standard bearers and trumpeters and men
with drums and colored banners. Immedi-
ately behind the royal attendants walked
priests carrying emblems in representation
of the vulture and the Asp, the signs of
the goddesses Nekhabi and Buto of the
south and OF the north, who crown the
Pharaoh with the Pschent-the crown OF
the rulers of Egypt.

Hughes said the administration n

He invoked argument in favor of
