ed was a full sheet poster in two
colors of ink, advertising a prize

about 8x10 inches. 1t was the lar
gest the material would permit.
"Soon after the paper made its
first appearance we had many visi-
tors and applications for work. We
paid ST per 1000 ems for setting
type. The universal remarks made
by the people when they came into
the office was: This begins to look

Vigilantes Hang Seventeen
"The miners would come to town
on Sundays to buy provisions and
whisky enough to last them per-
haps a week. One Sunday I saw
as many as so or 100 drunken men
on the main street in Virginia City,
fighting. Nc arrests were made,
as there was no law, no court of
any kind, no officers, only the Wig
lance committee, composed of the
better class of citizens. =
"The vigilance committee had
caught and hung on this gallows IL
of a band of 80 robbers and muir
derers. The balance of the gang
left the country or became better
citizens. Plummer and Skinner,
prominently mentioned in western
novels, were the leaders of this
band of robbers.
Gu1ch Was Rich Producer
There was very rich mining in
the gulch at Virginia City at that
time and $4,000 a day could be
washed with a pan. I saw one mug
get worth $3.50.
"At that time in Virginia City
and along the gulch it was esti-
mated there we're 10000 or 1900
people and not more than twenty
women and they were of the red
class. There were but few
streets. The houses were mostly
built on each side of the gulch with
covered with dirt. Some dug
in the side of a hill or mountain,
and did their cooking on the earth
outside. A great many lived in the
wagons they came in, some in tents,

the bundles of paper for a bed, but

gave these pass words.
!, The Egyptians thought that the soul
took the GHOSTS or doubles of them with
it, just as the Ka nourished itself with the
doubles" of the food and so on put in
the tomb
Since the shadow of man was sup
posed to be one of his most important
possessions, it went along with theESahu
and the Khu. AS it had life, it had to
have it's future.
But it had nothing to do with the, Ka,
the Ba-Bird had no interest in it and as
there was no light in the tomb it, of
course, had no place for it to go, and,
that was along with the spirit body and
the spirit soul-the Sahu and the Khu.
And it chung to them closer than brother
as they went along.
The world of the dead of ancient Egypt
was called the "Tuat." It was divided
into anywhere from to 81 parts-the
priests never quite agreed on this. But
each part had its own Gate, which had its
own keeper, its Waterman and it's herald.
The life in the "Tuat" seems to have
been much the same as on earth. Groups
of souls belonging to the same family met
again and continued together. The souls
of wives and husbands were united, and
their children found Their. parents again

robbers.
Taking up these two after-death char
acters, the Ka and the Ba as the Egyptians
believed in them, we can draw picture
Of what occurred from time to time in
the hidden tombs, as these same Egyptians
conceived that scene to be. =
We can picture the silent, black, rock
hewn chambers, in one of which lies Tut
ankh-amen's mummy. All around him,
in other chambers, are the foods, the
clothes. the ornaments, the toy figures of
servants with whom he has been sur

bered tomb broods or futters the weird.
hawk-bodied creature that has Tut-ankh-
amen's face. 1t sits beside the mummy:
it peers for days and weeks into that face
which is it's own; it taps against the great
jar which contains the dead heart-a mys-
tic, dread presence in the dark silence.
Then the Ka returns from one of it's
wanderings. 1t enters one of the statues.
1t looks out through the statues eyes.
The Ba-Bird futters to it and becomes
merged again with it.
Immediately the tomb changes! The
statue becomes infused with life. To it,
the walls of rock seem to dissolve and fade

recognized.
Yet although the. ancient Egyptians
spent SO much time On their tor1bs and
their furnishings, they were far from
gloomy in their every day lives: Their
philosophers, says Professors Bulge,
counselled men to enjoy themselves, to
anoint and scent their bodies, to wear
garlands and lilies, to cherish the woman
beloved, to sing and to dance and to put
away trouble and sorrow and to think
only on things which yield pleasure until
that day when they came to rest Gin the
land that loveth silence"
Follow after enjoyment and forget
care was the advice given to them. And
on an ancient tablet in the British
Museum we can to-day read the advice
given her husband by Thati-em-hotep, a
royal Egyptian lady of some $500 years
ago, to her husband. Eat, drink, marry
wives, enjoy yourself, she bids him, and
have no thought of care or sorrow, For,
she says. at the best these pleasures have
not the same zest after death, and death
calleth every one to him, gods and men,
and great and little are all one to Death,
who seizeth the babe as well as the old
man.

The Egyptians, were logical. The body
was dead for keeps; they never disputed
that. But if the double" or Ka had a
soul, then the spiritual body must have
a soul too, they argued. The Sahu
was the spirit body Of. the Pharaoh
and of other men-and the Khu was its
soul. The Ka and the Ba might be
destroyed by hunger or thirst or cold,
but the Sahu and the Khu were immortal
Yet they had terrific journey to make
and all sorts of dangers to face before
they could arrive in the land where they
would be happy forever. They had many
rivers to pass and some score of gates to
go through, each of which was guarded
by monster of sorts.
And we now come to the reason for
sticking those boats and little boatmen in
the tomb. And also the reason for the
heaps of amulets and scarabs-that is,
the sacred beetles of the Egyptians on
the bottom of which are Inscribed in
heiroglyphics certain magical texts and
swords of power"-which the archaeolo-
gists are already beginning to pick out of
the coverings of old Tut-aukh-amen's
series of canopies covering his coffin.
The boats and boatmen were supposed
to row the Sahu or spiritual body and

its Khu, or soul, over
the rivers that the

thought stretched be-

living and the land Of
the dead, and which
also ran through the
Other World. As soon
as the Pharaoh was
laid in his tomb the
Sahu, Khu and Khaibit
were supposed to get
right out and begin
this trip. And after
they had made the
voyage and had landed
in the Other World,
they began right away

To the physical gaze nothing
