The railway merger begins its disso- ution by electing new directors for the Southern Pacific. Wilson says he will form his cabi net from the progressive element of the Democratic party. President Taft has abandoned his plan for a world peace tour and will take up his duties as profsesor of law at Yale. The Treasury department plans a re organization of the customs service, under which many employes will be dispensed with. The rivers and harbors bill intro duced in congress provides for a mil lion dollars for improvements at the mouth of the Columbia river. “ Florence, Or., having been cut off from water communication by storms, the people are getting supplies of ba con and other commodities from Port land by parcels post. At the first general election held in the town of Clatsop, Oregon, in ten years, blank paper was used for bal lots, the names of candidates being written by the voters. Under a new law every cniid born in the Kingdom of Great Britain here after to parents insured under the na tional insurance act will bring the parents a bounty of 30 shillings, or about $7.50. Farmers near Seattle, Wash., have made arrangements with the Women's Federation of that city to supply fresh eggs and other produce direct to the consumers in the city, cutting out all middlemen. Robert W. Archbald, Federal Dis trict Judge of Pennsylvania and a judge of the Commerce court of the United States, was adjudged guilty of “high crimes and misdemeanors,” ex pelled from office and forever disqual ified from holding positions of public honor or trust. The Indian appropriation bill carry ing $8,000,000 has been passed by the bouse. Roosevelt rejects a proposal to try to bring the Republican and Progres sive factions together. Survivors of the steamer Rosecrans say 33 men perished when the vessel was lost on Peacock spit. Robbers using a motorcycle held up an expressman on the outskirts of Portland, making their escape easily. Governor Marshall of Indiana, op poses free school books. Suffragettes announce their inten tion of marching from New York to Washington to present their demands to congress. The accounts of the sheriff of Mult- nomath county, Or., balanced to a cent when the books were turned over to his successor. London—Unless unforeseen events should change the current of affairs, war in the Near East will be resumed within a week. The allies, convinced that the Turks merely are drifting, without a fix«! policy, have determined to end the seemingly fruitless debates and wire pulling by resuming military opera tions where they were left off more than a month ago. The Balkan kingdoms, moreover, are anxious to obtain relief from the heavy burden of maintaining armies on a war footing indefinitely. Wish ing. however, to observe all diplo matic courtesies, they have given the powers a reasonable time to agree on the note regarding Adrianople, frame it and present it to Turkey. If Tur key. as seems probable, fails to yield to the note, the Balkan kingdoms have agreed that they will call another sit ting of the conference through Sir Ed ward Grey or Rechad Pasha, who. ac cording to the rotation follow«!, would be the next presiding officer, and announce definitely their decision to break off negotiations. Immediately afterward the Servian. Bulgarian and Montenegrin command ers will notify Turkish headquarters that hostilities will be resumed within 96 hours. The allies have no faith in the effi ciency of the note the powers will present to Constantinople. The Otto man government has failed to convene the grand council, and apparently has no intention of meeting the allies' ul timatum on Adrianople. The allies feel that the note of the powers is couched in too mild terms to be effec tive, and that Turkey will know that it means nothing, because the powers will be unable to agree on coercive measures. WOMAN INTRODUCES FIRST BILL IN LEGISLATURE Olympia, Wash. — The first bill ever introduced in a Washington legis lature by a woman was house bill No. 1, introduced by Mrs. N. Jolin Croake, of Tacoma, providing a minimum wage scale for girls and women in Washington. Mrs. Croake had her measure all prepared and the instant it was in or der to introduce bills she presented hers, which received the first place in a shower of 17 bills of all descriptions and from all parts of the state. Mrs. Croake's bill provides a minimum wage for women and girls in any line at $1.25 a day, or 16 cents an hour where engaged in piecework.

Boston That he has discovered the secrets of the Sphinx has been made known to the authorities of the Har vard Scientific Museum and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, by Professor G. A. Reisner, the Harvard Egyptologist. Inside the Sphinx he found a temple dedicated to the sun. It is older than any of the pyramids, and ita dute is somewhere around 6000 B. C., the most ancient in Egyptian history. The tomb of Mena, the king, who pos«l as a god and who fashioned the Sphinx, is also within it. There are tunnels leading off into caverns which have not yet been penetrated, for the work has been going on only six months. The Sphinx is carv«l out of natural rock, but within arc caves and build ings of a city of gold, which whs ;>er- hapa once open to the air. At present the excavations are con fined to a chamber. The head of thia chamber is 60 feet long by 14 wide. It is connected .by tunnels with the temple of the sun, which rests within the paws of the Sphinx. Such relics as the “Crux Annates” ()oop«l cross), symbol of the sun, are found by the hundr«is. Inside the Sphinx are also tiny pyramids, al though the Sphinx was built long be fore the real pyramids. According to Prof<*aaor Reisner, the Egypt of today covers one vast city, the «ige of which has been scratched, and the interior of which probably never will be diaclos«!.
