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. Don-I Trend on Vie, Vibrates the rattle snake witli his rattle.

Short anti Crisp Items of General Interest to Our Readers. Thirty-two deaths from cholera ami sixty-eight fresh cases-are reported throughout Germany for tho week end¬ ing August 27th. The national labor commission, in session at Chicago, expects to complete its work by the end of the week and will then report to tho president. Eli Whitney, of New Haven, Conn., a graudson of the famous inventor of the cotton gin, has invented a machine which may revolutionize cotton pick¬ ing. The big strike of tho miners at Spring Valiev, ill., has ended by an agreement between the coal company and the strikers ns to terms. Tho men will resume work at once. The Parisan royalists aro greatly alarmed nt the reports of the condition of the count of Paris, and aro sending messages of sympathy to Stowe house nnd offering up prayers for the recov¬ ery of tho head of the house of Bour¬ bon. After making a thorough investiga¬ tion of tho conditions existing among the employes of tho Pullman company who participated in tho recent boycott and strike, Governor Altgeld lias is¬ sued an appeal to tho people of Illinois or relief. The social sensation of the year has been sprung at New Y’ork by the lUorM, which prints a special cable dispatch from Paris, announcing tho pendency of proceedings for Vanderbilt a separa¬ tion between William K. and his wife. Tho glass blowers employed in tlio McCoy Window Glass works at Ivnne, Pa., have accepted a 20 per cent, re¬ duction in wages nnd the works will start up oil September 1st. In tho neighborhood of 500 men nro employ¬ ed at the works. A London cablo dispatch says: Tho bark Venerata (Norwegian), Captain Persen, from Savannah, July 25th for London, was sunk on August 25th by a collision with tlio British steamer, Norhnm Castle. The Norham Castle was not injured. Tho crew of tho Venerata were saved and have arrived nt Madeira. The strike situation nt New Bedford, Mass., remains practically unchanged and little excitement attended the opening of tho Bennett nml Columbia mills Wednesday morning. The oper¬ atives have n more hopeful feeling since the managers of tho Bennett and Columbia mills have given iu to their demands. Inquiry nt Peoria, Ill., confirms the report that the whiskey trust will con¬ test the increase iu tax on spirits in bond, on tho ground of illegality. The argument is advanced that when the spirits were put in bond nt 90cents per gallon there was an implied con¬ tract that the tax would not bo in¬ creased on these goods while they were iu bond. Smoke from forest fires lins settled over Seattle, Wash., like a pall. It is impossible to seo clearly mure than a block. Navigation on the sound is dangerous and steamers have to feel their way, blowing whistles continual¬ ly to avoid collisions. Forest fires are still raging all over tho sound coun¬ try, and unless rain soon sets in the damage to standing timber will be enormous. It was stated by a well known mill man of New Bedford, Mnes., Thursday afternoon that not a mill in New Bed¬ ford would start up next week, as lias been currently reported. He the said mills that ho considered it doubtful if started up inside of a month and thought it definitely settled that no move in the direction of opening tho mills would bo made inside of two or three weeks at the most. The Shanghai correspondent of the Central New* says: There is an un¬ easy feeling iu Tien-Tsin, owing to tho attitude of the native troops. Foreigners are arming themselves as they fear an attack. The French war¬ ship Lion, the German Wolf, the Brit¬ ish Linnet, the American Monoeacca and tho Russian Bivootch have been sent by their governments to Tien-Tsin to protect tho foreign residents iu case of need. A liot occurred at tho United Coke works at Greenshurg, I’a., Thursday. A number of families of new workmen were moving into tho company’s houses. The striking Hungarians and Slavs, who have recently been evicted from the samo houses, attacked tho new-comers. Much of their furniture was destroyed and six or seven persons were quite seriously injured. The ar¬ rival of Sheriff McCann put a stop to the battle. The first official reports of the In¬ dian cotton crops have just baen is suec. The yield, as represented, is generally satisfactory, especially in the province of Pundaubj nnd Oudh. Iu the northwestern and centra! pro¬ vinces rain has in some eases impeded the developement of the boll, but a good average crop is expected, except in the Bombay and Madras presi¬ dencies, where the season has been unfavorable. It is stated that steps are being tak¬ en at New York looking to a close traffic alliance between the Big Four, Chesapeake and Ohio und the South er n Railway company. Drexel, Mor gan & Co. are understood to have the matter iu hand. It is also said that arrangements are being, perfected whereby the Southern railway and Chesapeake and Ohio intend to stop rate cutting and to reduce expense at common points.

State troops will not bo sent to Mil¬ waukee to quarantine the city or any part of it, nor will the state board of health take charge for tho present at least. This is the result of advice given the city authorities and the state board by Governor Peek. Governor Peek insists that the local authorities should do their full duty. 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 states met in convention at Washing¬ ton, D. O., Thursday morning to de* vise methods for the investigation and development of southern investments and resources. One of their objects is to secure tho establishment of n permanent exhibit of southern re¬ sources in Washington, with an auxil¬ iary bureau in which the various in¬ vestments, likely to secure capital, may be recorded with all particulars and thus establish a reliable medium be¬ tween northern capital and the rich fields for development in the south. With a view of making tire convention a BucceBs, many of the commercial bodies in the southern cities appointed delegates to represent them. COTTON ( KOI* OK 1 H!»4. flic New Orleans Exchange Issues Us Oflleial Figures. The New Orleans cotton exchange issued its official announcement of the cotton crop of 1893 ’94 Saturday. This announcement is made on the 1st of September of each year, and is re¬ garded as the most authentic official report of the crop issued. The figures this year are as follows: Port receipts for the year, 5,940,092. Overland, 931,706. Southern Consumption, net, 678,019. Total crop, 7,549,817 bales. Grose southern consumption, including 49,409 U*«a Item ports, 718,515. SOUTHERN SPECIALS NOTING THE MOST INTERESTING OCCURRENCES OF TllK DAY. Anil Presenting an Epitome of the South’s Progress ami Prosperity. Georgia republicans held tliieir state convention at Atlanta and decided not to put out a state ticket, and not to enter or cimllesco w ith the third party. The convention endorsed the Cotton States and International Exposition. Tho Alabama Press Association will meet in Montgomery on Sept. 12th. It is expected that the mooting will be largely attended and the people of the capital city are prepared to accord to the editors a cordial and hospitable reception. At New Orleans Councilman lfim dassa was caught in the act of taking a bribe from Charles Sherman. Tho amount taken was $100. Ho was caught by Detective I). f). O’Mally and Sergeant D. C. Aneoiu, and lodged in tho fourth precinct station. Striking miners at tho Whitowell, Tenn., mines cut tho ropes in the main shaft, necessitating a delay of a month before the work can resume, Tho mines have been idle for three months and were to have resumed September 1st. There is great excitement there. Secretary Hoke Smith has detailed Professor Prank \V. Clarke, a chemist in tho geological survey, to represent the interior department as a member of the board of management of the government exhibit at the Cotton States and International exposition,to bo held at Atlanta, (In., next year. A Jiinninglmm, Ala., special says: The Vanderbilt furnaces which have been lying idle for sometime, are to re¬ sume. At Mary Leo coal mine a re¬ duction in wages from it) cents to 32 j cents per ton ban been made, The miners struck, and in a few hours a compromise of 35 cents was made. Congressman John C. Kyle was re¬ nominated by tho,'Second Mississippi district democratic congressional Albany. con¬ A vention in session at New resolution was adopted endorsing his course in opposing the repeal of the purchasing clause of tho Sherman net, and demanding the free coinage of silver. In tho faco of n gonorftl belief in tlio magnificent, condition of tho cotton crop, Tho Garland 'New* pub¬ lished in the heart of the cotton region of Dallas county, Texas, states tlmt in that section half of the cotton crop litis been destroyed by boll worms, and if the showers continue, tho crop is likely to bo entirely destroyed. A Savannah dispatch says: Presi¬ dent John K. Young, of tho Atlantic ►Short Lino railroad, projected between Macon and Savannah, has returned from New York, where he has been to attend a meeting of tho company’s directors. Ho says it was decided to go ahead with tho work of completing tho line. Work will begin in a few days at Jlrutou. Tho line lias been graded between Jirivtnn and Btillmpre, a distance of thir ight, miles, and eleven miles of rai been laid. In V bruary anw ter national emi¬ grate mingl society Ala., amrit vMf formed has just closed in Bir , a contra , with a steamship line for tho transportation of 5,1)00 negroes prior to November 1st. The steamer will leave Philadelphia and touch upon the Atlantic coast at all prominent ports as far South as Now Orleans. Then it will go to Liberia, touching at ila vana. Tlio Liberian president has promised each colonist twenty-five acres of hind and tools with which to till the soil if they will come to Libe¬ ria and settle. It, is claimed by the cattle men of southwest Texas that tho new tariff bill will result in serious injury to tho cattle interests of that section. Tho duty is reduced from $10 per head to 20 per cent ad valorem, and now that the grass is good on this side it is expected tlmt at h ast 100,000 cattle will bo brought into Texas from Mexico within tho next sixty days, and after being fattened, marketed in ibis country, thus forcing down tho prices. There will also bo large ex¬ portations of cheap horses from Mexico to this country. P. J. Quigley, clerk of Shelby coun¬ ty, Tenn., and Joseph Thiers, license inspector for Memphis, have been in¬ dicted by tho grand jury for failure to perform their official duties. The in¬ dictments cite over BOO cases of failure to collect privilege tax revenue, aggregating a loss to tho public of $80,000. During tho past month over 1,000 indictments were brought against U<JUor dealers and investigation disclosed the fact that while there are in Memphis some H00 saloons, only about 100 have been required to pay license fees, and dur¬ ing the past eight years of Clerk Quig¬ ley’s administration tho public treasu¬ ry has lost nearly $2,000,000 from this source. CIIINKSK BOAT HO UHLS BUItN, An<l fiver a Thousand of the Celes¬ tial* Lose Their Lives. Special dispatches from Shanghai state that the British gunboat Jted Pole has sailed from Chee-foo for Port Arthur. Junks arriving at Chee-foo from Newehand report a large number of bodies of Japanese floating in the water at the mouth of the Tatung river. Fire started among some flower boats that were moored stern to stern in the Canton river, and nearly all of the craft were destroyed. The boat* were moored in fleet# and those em¬ ployed on them lived on Iward. Hund¬ reds jumped overboard ami were drowned, while still greater number* were burned to death. At least one thousand persons perished, . JAPANESE ATTACK POUT ABTIICIl. A dispatch to the London Tiring from Shanghai says: “A Tien-Tsin dispatch from Chinese couriers say t that thirteen Japanese ships, with over four thousand trooj#*, are attacking Port Arthur. ’The Chinese garrison, numbering 5,000 men and the Chinese fleet, have been ordered to attack the Japanese.” No mattkh what ha say* ho is, that man is a Christian who plants shade trass along th« rood. WORTH KNOWING. Man is the weakest of all animals in proportion to his size. The congressional library contains about 700,000 volumes. Twenty-four hoars after tho opening of tho London Tower bridge no fewer than 1,273 persons had passed over it, and in twelve days 75,000 vehicles. The average annual rice product of China and Japan is 250,000,000,000 pounds; that of the United htates only 150,000,000 pounds, Experiments are now being made with compressed hay for paving blocks. The hay, after being pressed, is soak ed in dry oil, which, it is claimed, renders it indestructible. It lias been estimated that the quan tity of lava throw n out by Vesuvius since the first recorded eruption in A. 1). 7'd is great enough to build nil Uio houses in New York uud London. Fishhooks are precisely the same in shape today as they were twenty cen¬ turies ago. The only difference is in the material; then they wore made of bronze, now they are made of steel. Tho most inquisitive creature in creation is the crab, lie will investi¬ gate with eye and clnw everything straugo to him. A little water poured upon the sand is sufficient to call a convention of crabs to see wlmt it all means. Thgj burial ground of an ancient race has been discovered near Adams villo, Mich. The remains indicate that the aborigines were at least seven feet talk From the fact that their bodies were turned toward the east, it is sup¬ posed that they wore sun worshippers. The skull of a mammoth human be¬ ing of prehistoric times was discovered in southern California somo time ago, and it was recently discovered that a cavity in one of its teeth was filled with gold in tho manner employed by modern dentists.

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 York Mail anil h'xprMa, LONG STRING of iliwmrs and Jo rniigcmuntNlmvo thoir origin in torpor of tin* I Ivor.
