PIL.S3 OF MOMMIES IN THE CAVE
OF CROCODILES.
A Reality Which Rivals Rider Hag
gard’s Wonderful Caves of Kor—The
Priests and Attendants Were Buried
With the Sacred Reptiles la Their
Charge.
from the SL James Gcuette.
The sudden demand for mummied eat*
reminds me of a visit paid many years ago
to the famous crocodile pits of Jlaabdeh.
It tray safely be assumed that those who
have visited Maabdeh are very few. It
lies some distance from the Nile, behind
Manfal ft, "'tiers no one stopped in the
pool old dabeeta days, and the modern
steamers only touch; moreover, the pits are
in the desert itself, tome hours’ ride.
••Murray," prudent as usual, does not en
courage the adventurous. The editor of the
~£jyp;iau Handbook” admits that his brief
r-marks are not based on personal knowl
and the errors therein show
that they are not based upon a trustworthy
report. It > s no unwarrantable
presumption, therefore, to fancy that these
vitv curious antiquities are rather discussed
than known. My own experience was due
to accident. Dropping down toe Nile, very
late in the spring of 1803, our dabeeh was
becalmed off Manfaloor, and the dragoman,
badgered by two young Britons to find
them sport, unwillingly named the pits of
Maabdeh. He proposed simply to ride
Dither and return—that, indeed, is a day’s
journey. But, as it chanced, the legend
of the pits had been familiar to me
as long as I can recollect. In the be
coming of this century a certain Mr.
Leigh, member of parliament, explored
them with most disastrous results. His
narrative may be found in a quaint old
child’s book c tiled “Winter Evenings,” ex
tracted, doubtless, from some record which
1 i ever came across. “Murray” gives no
reference to the story. My recollection
cannot be trusted to tell what happened to
.Mr. Leigh precisely; but I know that oue
of his followers died in the cavern, another
was h st, a third escaped after awiul suffer
ings: and finally th ty hati to run the gaunt
let of an infuriated population to the river
side, whence the pasha, or somebody,
sent them prisoners to Cairo. On
the whole it was a very striking adven
ture. a special favorite in our nursery. So
w hen the dragoman suggested in this casual
way a visit to the crocodile pits of Maab
deb, it seemed very strange and thrilling to
my mind—as though he had proposed a trip
to fairyland by excursion traiu. Of course
his modest programme was derided; we
would follow the steps of the unfortunate
n ember of parliamant to the bitter end.
Our dragoman became serious now. He
urged that it was much to late in the day
for starting, and we had to submit: doubt
less the good man hoped a wind would
spring up >n the night. But he was disip
jvinted. Long before dawn on the morrow
we =et oat, and in the afternouu we reached
the spot.
The entrance of the pits is an oblong
figure id the middle of a small plateau
Hinong the mountains —that is, no other
-nt ranee was known in 1863. There are 'no
facilities for descent; one may let oneself
fall sheer a matter of nine or ten feet and
c amber up again with the help ofja donkey
'• 'j’s cummerbund. Ido not recollect that
tiie ugly possibilities of this situation struck
us at ail, but perhaps some measures had
l eeu taken to make sure that the boys did
not desert. One of them, indeed, beaded
lhe advance; our dragoin m had never been
down before. The Arab began by stripping
o unplet ly, and ho advised us to do the
same. TUen we lighted a candle each, and
in single file dived into the bowels of the
rock. At a few feet distance the passage
narrowed rapidly until there was only room
• i crawl along on one’s stomach. This first
gallery may be some fifty yards long; it
opens on a chamber spmous enough, but a
natural cavern evidently. On the further
side runs another gallery us cramped as the
last, heated like a furnace, reeking with
foul air, vile stouch of bats, and pungent
fumes of bitumen. Then we understood
why the Arab had stripped. This frightful
passage may be 100 yards long, or the
double of that or more—one is unused to
measure distances crawling like a snake on
ono’s stomach. At the end lies another
chamber, of good height, apparently, if the
floor were cleared; but the whole area is
blocked with enormous masses of stone
packed as close as they will stand, over
which one has to clamber s coping. Hera
myriads of bats assail the explorer, blowing
out bis caudle immediately, clinging to his
hair and leard in ropes. A moment more
and they vanish with a soft rustle of count
less wmgs, such as I have heard in other
ciimes when the sand grouse fly overhead at
dawn and evening. On the opposite side of
this vault the first trace of handiwork is
•bserved —a square doorway. 1 myself
would have been quite satisfied to drop the
•rack of Mr. Leigu’s footsteps at this point
iiut the dragoman wasintcru ted now—tak
ing, perhaps, a professional pride in putting
the business through successfully.
He could speak with the guide also.
So we went on, still upon our stom
achs, for an indefinite time, in an atmos
phere iieyond analysis and heat beyond
sample in the upper air. It was here,
probably, that Mr. Leigh’s party broke
down, for I think they did r.ot reach the
end. We did. After some hundreds of
v ards. a* it seemed, slowly the passage
heightened—one could get upon one’s knees;
and then the flooring changed from smooth
granite to a soft, uneven compost. I lowered
mv candle to observe. We were crouching
along over kneaded human form;!
Avery strange spectacle, which seemed
to us an embodied nightmare under the ex
citement of that awful journey. I think I
was almost delirious. So scene recurs to
my memory dow more fresh and striking
than that black cave, with a slonder glow
of candle-lignt hero fid there, and the half
naked figures glistening with perspiration
stretched" out above a pavement of heads
and limbs. Many of the faces had been
gilt, and they shone flickering, here and
there upon thedussy mass. We could notget
any explanation of the extraordinary man
tling. The Arab said things had been soever
sines h could recollect. It must be sup
posed that these were mummies of priests
nml attendants buried with the sacred rep
tiles in their charge—great personages,some
• I them, evidently. Their families had been
Lid with them; for there were as muny
"oman, perhaps, as men, and a great num
t- rof clnldre.i. Everyone had been stripped
and torn to pieces—all of those on the sur
face, at least, for a hurried examination
failed to show how deep the serried pile of
t dies lay. Mingled with them were sheets
atm strips of cloth,fragments of sarcophagi,
and quantities of women’s hair in scalps—
wigs possibly. On the other side
"f this vault" lie the hindmost battai
i ‘t.s of the crocodile host —innumer-
ahle. Standing on the human pavement
t'twe is just space enough above and iu
1 t-t to observe the manner of their dis-
P"sal, for the topmost layer or two has been
t ailed down. If it wore not certain for
thur reasons that the present entrance is
tt't that b rmerly used, the arrangement of
tdese crocodile mummies would prove it.
j ney tilled the space completely from floor
'• arch and side to side until the upper ones
"ere removed—neatly aligned, tail to head,
Lend to tail, with palm-leaves laid between
'rnd the interstices filled up with countless
multitudes of young and eggs, these latter
'led in bundles and wrapjied each one in a
• rip of cloth, isince every layer was piled
t' l the roof, it is manifest that those who ar
ranged them must have worked backwards:
•no liaeeit would be as easy to drag an
elephant through those passages as to drag
‘ e superb specimens here —unequaled in
iiiv experience—of alligators and crocodiles
hey must needs have been brought from
io other side. The demonstration is coni
ni j te, for we had extremest difficulty in
' rawing behind us two heads ch- sen among
e smaller ones. Moreover, it is unlikely
oa. the bats use q that long sub
terranean outlet; they are probably
, wl,h a and nearer
that the enormous
blocks of stone upon the floor of the second
chamber had been put there after exeava
tion, out rf the way. No one can form au
idea how far the cavern extends. Removing
i the top layers a* they went and crawling
beueatb the roof, Arab., we are told, had
explored a vault beyond this and found
m_ re crocodiles still on tne further side.
Ihi mountain, ttiev said, was stuffed with
them, and it is possible. Assuredly the pits
are a mine of nitrate, and this exportation
of mummies for manure may effect one
g xvd thing at least by causing them to tie
emptied. Treasures uiay he beyond the
vaults where those myr.ads of crocodiles
are stored.
Forgiven.
From the Button Globe.
Almost evei v country town has its mys
tery. The mystery of the village of Ham
ilton wai John Ruth. He was tall and
dark, a picture of manlv strength. There
was something in his face that forbade ap
proach. It was no: sternness, it was not
ill-nature, but rather the exclusiveness of
sorrow. He had come to the village three
years before; had purchased the house iu
which he had lived alone ever since.
But at last the ice enveloping John Ruth
was thawed, though his past remained as
great a mystery as ever. Squire Brady’s
mansion, the handsomest for nnles around,
took fire one night. Am >ng those battling
the flames stood John Ruth. Forgotting
his reserve he became a leader of the im
promptu firemen.
Suddenly there was a lull in the voices of
Ihe excited crowd. In whispers each told
the other that the squire's youngest child
was ia the house. What a cheer went up
as they saw John ltuth dish into the burn
ing building. What tears of joy fell when
they saw him come out again, little
burned, and the child unhurt.
So. besides being a mystery, this man be
came a hero. Tney met, these good vil
lagers, next dav in the town hall. They
drew up resolutions; the schoolmaster re
wr te them on parchment in faultless hand
writing; then they were framed in the best
of style.
So one evening John Ruth heard many
voices, and, looking oul of the wiiylow, saw
a great throng. Squire Brady was at the
head, framed in hand. He de
manded admittance, and, in a cheery wav,
threatened to break down the door if he
were not obeyed. And so John Ruth opened
the door and the villagers thronged in.
Then the squire road nnd presented the
resolutions, and there were tours in his eye?,
and there were tears in everybody’s eyes,
and the dark, mysterious John Rutu actu
ally cobbed After that this lonely man came
to know and tie better known throughout
tne town.
One night, when the rain beat against the
window panes and the wind brought fear
ful talcs of shipwreck and drowning men,
John Ruth, sitting alone in his parlor, heard
a knock at his door.
When he opened the door a wet, muddy,
wild-looking woman staggered into the hall.
The hall light was ver3' low, and he could
see no more than this, but the fumes of
liqu r from her nearly choked him.
“Kin yer give a poor critter a night’s
lodgin’?” she asked iu a maudlin wav.
He had never seen humanity more de
graded, nor Goa's image more defaced, but
his charity was large. He answered:
“Yes. Come into the parlor.”
He placed her on the sofa and went out
for the lamp. When he returned he
rai-ed the flame that he might see her
plainly.
At that instant John Ruth's form bent as
if under some great weight; the woman ut
tered a shrill cry of delight, and her laugh
ter, horrible to hear, filled the room.
The woman glared at him with her blood
shot eyes, and, grinning, said:
“At last I’ve found you, John! At last—
at last!”
She rocked to and fro in her drunken
glee, like a pleased wild beast.
“To think,” she went on. “I’d give up
finding ye, and to stumble on yer this
way! It’s a providence, John—it’s a provi
dence !”
The woman falls upon the floor and drops
asleep.
* $ V * * *
A month had gone by—a month of tor
ture to John Ruth. He had given his wife
money to go away, but lie had found her
the same day lying stupefied with drink in
the hall.
He must fly from her. as he had often done
before. But it was hard, and his heart
ached. For years he had isolated himself
from the world to escape this woman. He
had loved her once, but after their marriage
he saw he had but dreamed.
He sometimes feared that he might kill
her. Wherever he fled, with strange cun
ning she tracked him. Then there was no
shaking her off—nothing left but flight.
But here he had new friends. The whole
village knew his story, for the woman in
her cues was loose of tongue, and told
the children who followed her who she
was.
It was a stormy night—just such a one as
that on which she had knocked at his door.
The tempest without seemed in its fury no
wilder than the tempest within his soul.
Hamilton, though buta country village, had
become his world: the rest of the earth was
but a desert.
There was a knock at the door.
“It’s not my wife,” he thought “She
would have fallen against it.”
He stepped into the hall. Ills own suffer
ing did not destroy nor for a moment put
aside his charity.
He opened the door. No lieggar stood
there. Put Squire Brady and the parson
bearing the form of John's wife. Her’swas
not the face of one in’oxicated, for the rays
of the hall light shining on it showed it to
be like the face of the dead. The squire
whisnered, as men do when death seems
near, that they had found her thus, white
and insensible, on ttf| roadside, the storm
beating down upo Ini’ uplifted face.
They here her qp(tiirs and laid her upon
a bed." There was lofnething in the face
that reminded John ltuth of the old love.
It was as though death, before taking the
woman to his nark abockf, bad washed from
her the stains of the vedrs.
She did not become sensible nor open her
eyes until the doctor had come. She heard
his words, “The end is very near.” Then,
as her eyes opened, she murmured:
“My husband, will you come to me?”
John Ruth took her chilling hand, and,
leaning over her, whispered:
“i am here, Helen.”
“God bless you, John, for answering the
cry of my heart. You heard what the
doctor said just now. It is a dying woman
who asks the forgiveness she does not de
serve.”
He does not answor her in words, but in
token of pardon kisso3 her lips.
The white lips smile, the blue eyes shine
with the innocent light of childhood.
God’s minister tremblingly says:
"The thief upon the cross saw God.”
John Ruth feels a slight pressure of her
hand. The woman has fallen asleep.
Death lias made her face the face of a
child.

of any other business college. Nut-lb or South.
We can have )ustasgood schools here as they

ourselves is a'l that we need. Some years ago
croakers said I hat we could not have a first-class
hotel, but the magnificent structure which now
ornaments Liberty and Bull streets shows what
can be done by earnest and well-directed efforts.

First-class business schools, like first-class
hotels, do a great deal toward advert,sing ami
