show the way to stop the agony,

Allenrhu has been tried and tested

was helpless.
Mr.. James HI. Allen, of Rochester,

r AND STONE ARE
MOVED TO OPEN INNER
TOMB OF THE ANCIENTS

LUXOR. Egypt, oct. 1s.-tBy The
Associated Press appropriations for
lifting the 1000 tons OF earth. stone
and wooden joists hat now rest
over the tomb of Tutenkhamun r
and his American associates. Messrs.
Gambler and Burton. have re-estab-
lished themselves in their lonely
concrete domiciles ut the entrance
TO the Valley of Kings, and have
made a preliminary survey OF the
work that must be done before the
inner tomb believed to contain the
mummy Of the Pharaoh can be
opened.
The archaeoiogists estimate that
at least n fortnight will be required
t. clear away the vast heap Of
rubble that now shields the king
from the outside world. 1t is pos
sible that a narrow gauge railway
loaned by the American archaeo-
mission will be used to hasten
the work.
Nearly 100 of the native eIcava-
tors who helped Mr.. Carter
the tomb last summer have been re-
engaged at stipends which make
American union wages look like
fortunes.
Each digger is to receive twelve
cents a day with a slight bonus at
the end of the season II the
Pharaoh's body is found in the
sarcophagus. Most Of the laborers
are boys of from 10 to is. but some
of them are grown men who sup
port or three wives on this
slender remuneration.
1t is probable that Pharaoh
Tutenkhamun will be undisturbed
for many weeks. as the dismantling
of his multiple tabernacle of gold
will require the most painstaking
labor and skill.

The foundation stones OF sue

The delicate parts OF the outer
and inner shells will have to be
treated chemically and the utmost
a r taken to guard them against
breakage. In addition to this, the
entire wall shielding the s%epulchre
from tho other chambers probably
will have to be demolished so as to
permit the archaeologists sufficient
room in which to work.
Mr.. Carter is stu sanguine that
the body of the king will be revealed
just as It was buried. The fact that
the inner coffin is OF stone precludes
the use of tho X.ray in determining
what contains the mummy.
1t is possible that when the labors
of the season are over the Egyptian
government will arrange to place a
large glass slab over the sarcop-
hagus so hat visitors from all parts
of the world can see what will prob
ably prove to be the first perfect
example OF n royal mummy ever

mote Valley OF Kings will have be
