THE DAILY ASTOJIIAN. ASTORIA, SUNDAY AIORNlNjS. AUGUST 25, 1895. Some Recnt Conjectures as to Its Location. CRADLE OF RACE ON THz NILE Tliolianl.u Was Originally Discov ered by Stanley and Is Described in blowing Terms. New York Sun. An English Egyptologist, Ir. W. Mars- 'iiam Adorns, has been for some time en i'agod In an endeavor to solve the struc tural enigma of the great pyramid and to elicit from the ancient religious books of the Nile land, and especially from the so-calicd 'Hook of the Dead, a c'.ew to the creed of the early Egypt. In the volumes embodying tho outcome of his researches he arrives at Interesting con clusions regarding the simplicity and purity of the oldest Egyptian faith, and discerns in It a curious conformity, so far aa the main lines are concerned, to Chris tianity. That to which, however, ho would at this time Invite particular attention, is that the assertion that his read ings in the sacred ibooks of Egypt bear out the record of Genesis as to the seat the earthly paradise, and that, conse quently, the cradle of the human Tace must toe looked for In Africa at some point in the watershed of the Nile. Let us mark the grounds for this at tempt at a new identification of the Garden of EJen. !Mr. Adams points- out the region of the great lakes, there aro as in the place described in Genesis, the "heads" of four rivers, which "go forth to water the whole country." There, be yond the Zam'besl, lies the land of gold, with its mines of unknown antiquity, and bearing an odorous herb, of which the hieroglyphic name is beru, suggesting the criminal of the Hebrew word betelu, con verted by the Greeks into bdellium. There is tho fountain of tho winding Nljfer, and there the source of the In undating Nile. There, too, Is the Congo, the river of "life," corresponding to the Hebrew I'erith (fruitful), transformed Iby the Greeks Into the Euphrates. What Mr. Adams deems more striking still Is the fact that in the eastward por tion of this great 'basin lies the garden of .paradise, 3,000 square miles in area, described in glowing terms by Stanley as full of animal life, the scepter expressing dominion over which was one of the In signia of tho Egyptian deity Amen. From that garden flows a single river, ihe Snarl, exactly as in tho Scriptural ac count the single river flowed In the midst to water the garden, which was placed In the astward part of the immense watershed of Eden. Thence, according to Mr. Adams' theory, the stream' of human emigration found its way along the line of. Ipast resistance to the fertile plains of Esypt, probably the seat of the most ancient civilization In the world, dtffus ln;r itself into the delta of the Nile along tie shores of the Mediterranean. 10 a certain extent tne ground was prepared for the effort to connect the record of Genesis primarily with old Egyptian rather than wifh the Chuldale tradition. Since Esyptian monuments have been studied in the light of astron omy there has been a tendency to hold that the civilization of Egypt was de rived from two sources of emigration, the one situated in the Abyssinian highlands or elsewhere in the watershed of the Nile, the other in Mesopotamia. It is thought, however, that the northward stream of emigration was the earlier. Moreover, many Assyrlologlsts concur in thinking that ancient Chaldea was prin cipally indebted for civilizing agencies to emigrants coming by way of the Per sian gulf, from Abyssinia or southwest Arabia. It should also be noted that sinologues ore now disposed to trace the origin of Chinese civilization to emigrants from Chaldea, whose own culture, as we have said, Is bellved by many to be de rivative. So that there is something like a consensus of conjecture pointing to the watershed of the Nile as the cradle of civilized man. THEIR LATEST FREAK.

W'nen Mr. Sevier was a ycur.g man lie obtained this valu able goat, watch ne trained In many ways. T..cii, each year the fine wool the tioa'. pi vj-ccd yie.utd a revenue tnat was tne ie.a:.ao.i:on of r.is fortune. Mr. Sevier tr.aae lac gHt a lvgd-ar mathematical UkO.e, aiid so trained was the goat that ne wou.d send nlm Into the orchard to procure a uozen s.vett linibe." t.vigj, and the goat wou.d butt the tree until Just ii uia lipe aiilcs wou.d fall. Then the oat wou.d pick up the apples and bring them to tae house. He could send the goat for cne or a hundred apples. So it was la everything. The goat would be sent to feed the horses and told to let them eat just ten stalks of green corn in the field. The goat would l.ei';orm the rtrvice, and tutt the horse avray from t.:e eleventh hill. If the K at was in a muddy fl-ld and started to go to another he would climb to the U-p cl the fence and wipe the mud off his feet. In this way he did not abstract the soil from either Ben Margrave's or from Parker's form onto Charles Sevier's farm. In time tho goat became so valuable that air. Sevier used to sit on his porch and direct the goat to keep the wheels turning. At last the goat could not digest an empty whisky bottle, and It died. So, after this sad occurrence, Mr. Se vier sold his farm to the East Tennessee Land company and moved to Harrlman, whoro ihe now resides. Ho still Insists that goats are Intelligent. WON THE GAME. The Condemned Criminal's Last Was a NlneStroke. Play Boston 'Home Journal. Here la a Munchiooisen-'llke story iv.hleh actually appeared In an old German newspaper: In an imperial city lately a criminal was condemned to be beheaded who had a singular Itching to play at nine-pins. While his sentence was pro nouncing he bad the temerity to offer a request to be permitted to play once more at his favorite game at the place of ex ecution and then he said he would sub mit without a murmur. As the last prayer ofa dying man, the request was granted. When arrived, at the solemn spot he found everything pre pared, fhe pins being sot up and the bowl ready. He played wtth no little ear nestness; but the sheriff, at length, seeing that he s'nowed no Inclination to desist, privately ordered the executioner to strike the fatal blow as he stooped for the howl. The executioner did so and the head dropped Into the culprit's hands as he raised himeslf to see what had occurred; he Immediately aimed at the nine, con ceiving that it was the bowl which he grasped. All nine falling, the head loud ly exclaimed, "I have won the game." DIED OF DIRT. European Edition New York Herald. A sordid end was that of M. Paul Mer cier, the editor of a paper called Gagne Petlt, and formerly a member of the Gaulols staff. Since he took up his quar ters In the rue Alfred-Stevens seven years ago no one had ever entered his room except himself. For some days his neighbors missed him, and, calling the Concelge's attention to the fact, they summoned M. Cornette, the police com missary. On breaking Into the Journalists lodg ings the commissary found the occupant dead on a til thy bed. Numbers of trunks were found containing art works of value that had evidently not been opened since he moved In. The room adjoining was full of dirty linen. M. Mercier had never thought of employing a laundress, but had simply bought new things and wore them until they literally dropped off his back. A doctor summoned by the police ofil- clail certified that death was due to the foul miasmas of the dirt-laden room, which, it seems, had not" .been ventilated for seven years. THIS OCCURS TOO OFTEN. Washington News. He was talking to a 'blooming young girl on tho piazza at Chevy Chase Inn, and plainly felt he was being admired. He was a vain old fool, and her evident Interest flattered him. Out of the broad doorway his wife advanced, her worn, sallow faco lightened with pleasure. "How do you like my new bonnet, dear?" she asked, gently yearning for him to approve the Frenchy combination of black satin and flowers set above her slightly tlme-strcaked 'locks. He with drew his eyes reluctantly from the pink and white damsel beside him, and gave this woman who had shared his poverty and helped to build his fortune a wlther lngly Indifferent ftlnnce. "Roses are all very well for Miss Mamie, here," ho replied, "but wouldn't a spray of ivy, with an owl's head on one side, be 'more suitable for you, my love?" Tears filled her eyes and she left them together. LOVE MAKES A MAN HOLD. Atchison Globe. A man In love, with few opportunities, doesn't care how many people are watch ing him. Under a tree at Forest Park yesterday there sat a girl with- a pink dress trimmed In blue ribbons and a young man who felt very awkward in his best clothes. Their love story was evi dently new, as they didn't see a thing going on arounif them, and. within the space of 40 minutes had kissed each other 37 times by actual count. Fully 50 people kept tally. They wera first seen under the tree at 9 o'clock in the morning and were still there long after milking time. They had nothing to eat or dTlnk all day, but looked contented and happy. The balloon passed right over their heads, but they didn't see it. We wonder if they are still there, and If they know that it rained. THE EFFECT WAS STRIKING. Boston Herald. A stylisly dressed young woman was sitting qijlctly lu her seat In the cars on her way to Hartford, presumably, when two "dudlshly dressed young men" boarded the train near Stamford. They began to annoy the woman, who was a good deal more advanced than they had any idea of. The passengers became interested, and wondered If the young woman would leave the car or appeal to the conductor. She did neither, how ever, but after patience had . ceased to be a virtue, she rose up In her wrath, and, rolling up her sleeves, pitched Into the wouldjbe mashers In true pugilistic style. Every blow came straight from the shoulder and landed with telling effect upon the physiognomy of either of the men, until they were compelled to beat an Ignominious retreat from the car. WHY PATTI SANG. Mme. Pattl, in the curent number of Caswell's Magazine, gives an interesting account of her first appearance. Mis fortune had fallen on the family, and at last the day came when she could bear her father's troubled face no longer. "Don't sell your beautiful turquoise pin to help us," she said. "I will help you. Let me 'be a little singer." The father frowned on the idea, but his objection was of no use. The little madam gave no peace to her family until her appearance at "N.blo's Gardens as a prima donna of seven Bummers was an accomplished fact. She made a great hit. From that time money poured In and there was not a prouder heart In all New York than hers when a cozy red brick house was bought with her earnings and her whole family Installed there. SOUTHERN LITE1UVTCRE. Atlanta Constitution. When some people are nof well enough, to split rails for a living, they circulate among the credulous and pose as the "emancipators" of "southern literature." In this connection It would be Interest ing to know Just why "southern litera ture" needs "emancipation," and who Is holding It down? Is It possible that It has received from any source a. Bob Fitz slmmor.s knock-out blow, and therefore stands In need of raw-beef applications? The trouble Is, many who are howling to the desert air about "southern litera ture" wouldn't know It If they met it In the road and fell ail over It. TRUE FRIEND. Life. Miss Withers What would you do if I should refuse you? He I'd see if I couldn't find some other fellow who would be willing1 to marry you. Hers Is a Butterfly Existence anil Must Cease. KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT VALUES Whether to Bo the Wife of Rich or Poor Mail She Should Learn Business Economy She Is fortunate In having people to care for her, and the money that is put In the dainty little purse Is a gift, and not a wase earned. She does not know how much her dresses cost she had them charged and did not ask; and she would thinW she was horribly mean if she went out with a girl friend and did not treat her to luncheon and buy her something pretty. The whole crowd, she calls them, have soda at her expense, and then she bought a bunch of violets for herself and one for her most Intimate friend and had two pairs of gloves charged. My dear little butterfly, what kind of a Vlfe are you going to make for a young man whose salary Is (2,500 a year. And that Is rather more than the average man of 25 gets. Now I want you to be woman enough to ask your father not to give you candy and Boda money, but an allowance, and tell him it is because you want to learn the value of money.. He Is a business man, and ne will see the wisdom of It. Then buy your own dresses, pay for the making of them, learn what they are. worth, and learn just how much that you squander Is unnecessary. When you have them charged you do not think it worth while to clean trioves, but when you pay out' your own money for them you will see the wisdom of this economy. The girl who knows notning about the value of her clothes, wno uses her pocket money only for nonsense, Is rot fit to control money, or to be the wife of either a rich or a poor man. The wise girl must stop right away in her career of Ignorance. She must make up her mind to learn the value of money, the proper uso and its wicked abuse. Prince Charm ing dreams of asking her to control a tiny cottage in which love and happi ness may be found, but how can he when her clothes and her foibles require more money than he can make In three years? A young woman can afford to dress simply. She is wronging herself when she impresses the men who are her friends with her Ignorance of life and Its duties. If she Is left to live her life alone, never having the joy of being wife or mother, it is too often because the man who loved Jier knew that he did not have money enough to keep her as she wished, knew that, honestly, he couid not afford to ask her to be his wife Think it all over, my pretty butterfly, stop studying Greek and go back to the multiplication table; give up the zither and take to pencil and paper. Learn the value of money. Having that knowledge, no matter whether you are a worker or an Idler, you possess a great power, Whether your Income is small or great you will be abie to be both Just and generous with it, and that is what I want n.y girls to be. It is only by caring for the pennies that you can control the dollars. For me, I am so proud of the American girl that I want her to do what is right, and this she will never do until she Is brave enough to draw the eti ings of her purse against extravagance and slckiy sentimentality and to open it to justice and proper generosity. Ruth Ashmore In the Ladies' Home Jornal. SOME SEASIDE GOWNS. There does not seem to be anything par ticularly new in the seaside dresses, which are the only arguments In which any novelty can be expected at this time of year. The very pretty lawn fronts that have been popular during the sum mer are now being applied to serge coats, and lighten them up with a considerable eiegance that would once have been con sidered incongrous. Coat and skirt Is the prevailing style, and, of course, cot ton blouses are the most usual addition; but for a smarter promenade costume, or for the mild yachting in sight of land that Is all that, many women care to go in for, some more dressy adjuncts In vesta and collars are permlssable. In one dress, made by a first-ciass ladies' tailor, the bodice and skirt were of blue serge, the coat fastening by one con cealed hook at the waist and having no basque, but rather long tails at the back; from the waist it was cut abruptly open and a lawn shirt In may tucks appeared. The square revers were faced with white cloth and widened into a corresponding sailor collar at the back. In another place serge made the coat and skirt, and the square, stiff revers were faced with while, edged around with gold braid, while threa little gold buttons In a line along the top of the revers also decorated it at each side. The vest was of pale blue flannel ana fastened up in front with tiny gold but tons. In another case a smartly cut short-basqued blue serge coat had very wide square revers of fawn, edged round with white, two big fawn-colored but tons decorating the coat near the waist, just beneath the bottom side cf the revers; a white stiff shirt was to be worn with it, as a ru.e; but a full vest of fawn silk was also supplied. A cream colored serge coat had the bottom of the basque bound round with pale blue, which also was continued up to the throat and round the deep Bailor collur; the costume was finished by a vu.-t of white flannel, arranged in a box plait at the front, this being piped at either side with blue, as was the high collar of tho vest. In another rather original dress, the blue serge bodice, close lilting to the llgure, the vest being on the Bame lining, was drawn together at the waist line, but Immediately sloped though very slowly and sllsat.y, cpon to the bust, the cut thence to the throat being more abrupt, between wldo revers; the center was filled In with a cose plaited vest of soft, blue silk, hooking down tho front invisibly, and the revers were covered with guipure lace; four large buttons covered with blue silk were set at each side of the opening from waist to bust, and the bodice was com pleted by a separate bask put on round tho waist, pointed In front and cut up over the hips. This dress had bishop tleevea wit'li lace cuffs. Illustrated Lon don News. VAJX TRICKS Of Giddy Men and Women at tho 8ea ihore. Philadelphia press. One of the favorite schemes of the sum mer girl In her warfare on masculine hearts Is a perfect failure. It' that little trick she has of telling a man about the dotion of some other man or some other two men or even three or four men. Sne has great faith In that special flyle of bombardment and makes use of it on all occasions. A profer while discussing this question recently ald: "What do you suppose a man wants to make love to another man's girl for? Juv.t as toon af a giri gives the slightest hint that she is engaged you'll all the other men scatter as If they were rur.nlr.x away from sure dmh. If I'm looking around In a shop and see some- thing marked 'sold I don't break my neck trying to buy It. No, sir! I hunt arounu uniu i utBtuver an article on which no one has a claim. I never could quite understand just why girls like to have people think they're engaged, but they do, just the same, and they scare away lots of good chances, too, I know men that like to brag about their conquests. Wellt they display a lack of wisdom! Suppose a man makos up his mind to propose to a girl and he begins the business by telling her how many other girls would have been glad to marry him! He might Just as well jump Into the lake If his happiness de pends upon her 'yes!' If she is half bright she'll fathom that young man In about three seconds and she'll say to herself: 'What a conceited and egotistical young ster this Is! I shall have nothing to do with him. I really will have to teach hlmn a lesson and let him know that there's one girl who will not grow gray headed over the loss of him.'". THE NEW "WOMAN. How the Man of the Future Will Have to Woo Her. "You look tired, dear." The man who had given up his life to the young girl who so eollcitiously ques tioned him gazed tenderly into the eyes uplifted so searchlng'.y Into his. savs urooaiyu iue. "I am a, trifle tired, my darling," he said. "Our cooking class was a little longer man usual this afternoon, and It nas iota upon me. " Yes, v dear," she replied sympathetl. cally. "I have heard my mother tell how ivtaiiNR mey were on ner, and I can understand In a measure how Irksome tney must be, is that all you have been doing today? "Oh, no!" he cried. 'This morning I attended a most absorbing lecture on the care of the household, the first of .a series tnat are to be given this season. it was so helpful." "I can imagino so,"' she replied softly, Aiinuusii a subject mat has never claimed my serious thought, I can ap preciate just how Inspiring talks of this sort must be to one so ambitious as your self!" "Indeed, yes, and that Is not all," he exciaimeu, enthusiastically, "I am, look, ing up the subject of home decorations and it Is wonderful what a vast field It is. They asked me if 1 would prepare a paper on inc use ana abuse of tidies, ne aaaea, modestly, "but I haven't enougn confidence In myself." "Oh, why don't you?" she cried. am sure you could do It, dear, and all these things will be such a help In your ruiure lire. ou are & dear, good bov. and you try so hard to please me." with, an exclamation of delight her future life companion, the look of weari ness on his face giving place to one of the greatest hopefulness, drew her swift ly to his arms. Do you thlnfl so." he said. "Ah. mv uearest, now i nave tolled to hear you say those words tho first words of pralso for ime that have ever fallen from your lips, and now that you have spoken tell me wnen can I claim my reward and call you my own?" And there was a look of Intermingled satisfaction and complacency In her face as she replied , I think, James, dear. If you keen on in the way that you have began, In three or four years you will be fitted to take upon yourself the duties of a husband." EFFECTS OF AIOOHOL. A distinguished specialist, savs the American Practitioner, has carefully noted the difference between twelve families of temperate persons durlnsr twelve years, with the result that he found that the twelve drinking families produced In those twelve years nfty seven children, while the temperate ones were accountable for sixty-one. Of the drinkers, twenty-five children died in the first week of life, as against six on tha other side. The latter deaths were from weakness, while the former were attrib utable to weakness, convulsive attacks. or oedema of the brane and membranes. To this cheerful record Is added five who who were Idiots; Ave were so stunted In growth as to really be dwarfs; five, when older, becaime epileptics; one, a boy, had grave chorea, ending In Idiocy; five more were diseased and deformed, and two of the epileptics became, by inheritance, drinkers. Ten only of the fifty-seven showed during life normal disposition and development of mind and body. Fifty of the children of temperate families were normal In every way. PERiSONS AND THINGS.
