Egyptian Book of The Dead.
The Egyptian “Book of the Dead”
or funeral ritnal contains probably the
oldest existing record of the faith of
man in the immortality of the soul.
Its chapters are found inscribed on
mummy cases or written on rolls of
papyrus within them. The book re¬
counts the supposed experience of tho
sonl after death, its passage across the
land of darkness in the blessed fields,
to its final judgment and admission
into tho presence of its Father in
“eternal dwelling place of tho
cleansed spirit.” The following pas¬
sage from one of these mummy cases
recently exhumed shows its express
declaration of a future life. “The
osiris god (sonl) lives after death. Every
rejoices with life. The osiris re¬
joices as the gods rejoice.” It is sup¬
posed the “Book of the Dead” origin¬
ated with Egyptians between 2,000
and 3,000 years before Christ. A
mummy case from tho great pyramid,
inscribed 1,700 yea before the time
of Jesus, has the following inscription:
“O God, the protector of him who
cries to thee, he is thine. Let him
have no harm. Let him be as one of
thy flying servants. Thou art he; he
is thou. Make it well for him in tho
land of spirits .”—Home Magazine.

FLOOD IN TEXAS.
THE LEONA RIVER BECOMES A
RUSHING TORRENT.
Whole Kaiikiltes Drowned nnd Towns
Completely Annihilated.
A terrible catastrophe befell the
thriving town of Uvalde, Texas, Thurs¬
day night and there is mourning in
nmuy households. The calamity reacherous was
entirely unexpected. The t
Leona river, swollen to a raging tor¬
rent by recent rains, rushed without a
moment’s warning down upon tho
town, submerging and wrecking many
houses and drow ning a number of peo¬
ple. In this arid section such destruc¬
tiveness by tho elements has never be¬
fore been chronicled.
In tho excitement it is not definitely
known how many have been drowned.
It was about 2 o’clock in the morn¬
ing when the Hood came. Just as tho
storm broke over tho city a terrible
torrent of water rushed down tho
Leona river, overflowing t he banks of
that stream and flooding the lowlands
on either side to a depth of several
feet. The east side of the city is built
on lowland and was directly in tho
path of tho water. All tho houses in
this part of tho town were submerged.
There were a number of miraculous es¬
capes and tbs rescuers and the rescued
performed many heroic nets.
An earthquake shock of some mo¬
ments’ duration was distinctly felt
during the night. At one place near
the city about a quarter of n mile of
heavy cracks appeared on each side of
the Leona river, having apparently no
bottom.
Tho loss to tho Southern Pacific
Itnilroad Company is enormous, forty
miles of track and many bridges hav¬
ing been washed away. A rough esti¬
mate of the loss to property in general
and tho railroad company will, ns fai¬
ns known, reach a million and a half
dollars.
A Later Account.
Another and later account says that
the deluge did not come from tho
clouds, as was nt first supposed, but
that it came out of the ground and its
bursting forth was caused by an earth¬
quake which rent the earth at several
places along tho Leona river, near
Uvalde. The cracks in the earth with
the water pouring therefrom are still
visible. Thu Leona river, so-called, is
a dry stream ten months of the year,
but it is known that a subterranean
basin and stream of water exists under¬
neath the dry bed, as flowing artesian
wells are obtained by boring a few
hundred tffTT It is supposed that
this artesian basin of water is now
escaping through the cracks caused by
tho earthquake. The shook of tho
earthquake was distinctly felt at Uval¬
de and at points for many miles
around.
TIIK FLOODED DISTRICT.
A special from San Antonio says:
Tho scene of destruction and desola¬
tion in the flooded district for a dis¬
tance of 100 miles west from here and
extending south from tho Southern
Pacific railway to tlio Bio Grande 200
miles away, is simply terrible. Thous¬
ands of acres of pasture and farm land
is under water.
It is estimated that the damage to
crops in the valley of the Loonn river
will reach $500,000, while in the val¬
leys of tho Saco and Sabine rivers tho
losses will bo fully as much horses or uioro. and
Many thousands of cattle,
sheep wero swept away. Up to Friday
night all telegrams received by South¬
ern Pacific railway officials and for the
press came by the roundabout way of
El Paso, Pueblo and Kansas City, all
direct communication with Uvalde nnd
other flooded towns being cut off.
Latest reports received uro more
alarming than tho earlier ones, It is
still a matter of uncertainty ns to tho
number of lives lost, but additions to
the list of drowned *aro constantly
coming. Uvalde,
About one-half the houses of
a town of 2,300 people, wore carried
away, nnd there is much suffering
there,Imt’no more fatalities are report¬
ed from that place. Nothing has yet
been heard from tho settlement of
seventy-five families several miles be¬
low Uvalde, but there are still grave
fears that many if not all of them were
swept down by the torrent.
FOR SOUTHERN ADVANCEMENT.
A Convention of Business Men of (lie
fvnitli at Washington.
Business men from tho southern

ton, D. O., Thursday morning to de*

Dust ln<loH|>onsabl<*.
Ordinarily regarded dust is a nuia
anco, yot it plnys a most important In
part in our very existence. fact,
dust gives color to not only tho atmos¬
phere, lint to everything vve behold,
Tho sky is blue, the mountain green,
tho ripening fields of corn yellow, tho
evening sunset red, the clouds purple,
all through dust. Our soft, uniformly
diffused daylight is due entirely to
dust. In truth, our days would be
darker than moonless nights but for
dust, The fineness of the particles of
atmospheric dust determines the color
wo see. 'These dust particles inter¬
cept and diffuse tho light. Homo
of these atoms are Urge
enough to reflect the blue
other waves, fewer of them capable of
reflecting green and yellow, and still
fewer large enough to influence tho
rod othernal waves, lienee blue is tho
prevailing atmospheric color. Thu
deep blue of the sky in Italy and the
trollies is solely from tho fact, that at¬
mospheric dust. iH ttner there.
Kniufnll is produced by dust. Every
particle of moisture evaporated by
tho sun condenses upon a particle of
dust as a uueleus, and hence precipita¬
tion in rain. We could have no snow,
no clouds, no fogs, no color without
dust. In winter everything would bo
covered with a crust of ice. In short,
without tliiH usually considered nuis¬
ance, dust, life would not be worth
living, even if living were possible.

Clothes that are sprinkled overnight mil¬
in sultry weather arc quite apt to
dew before morning. Hub them with
buttermilk and lay them in the sun,
and tin mildew, unless very bad, will
disappear. Another remedy is salt,
and vinegar. It may bo well to state
that badly mildewed clothes cun never

Could Only See at Nisht.
There is a caso recorded near Lyons
in 1HI17 of a girl who not only was un¬
able to see in the daytime, but had to
be kept in a dark room, so painful was
the light to her eyes. She was taken
out for exercise every night and dis¬
played a power of vision that was al¬
most telescopic. She was able to dis¬
tinguish moving figures on a road,
when persons beside her with good
sight could see nothing but the black¬
ness of night. Tho ignorant French
peasantry thought tho child bewitched
and an attempt was made to poison
bor. The parents became alarmed and
fled to Paris, taking the girl with
them. Hho was taken to a hospital,
whore she name into tho notioe of Dr.
Faille, the famous oeeulist, and he
paid the parents for tho privilege of
looturing on the phenomenon. ’I he
girl eventually died insane, hut re¬
tained her power of seeing at night in
the dark until the last moment.- - Sew
