THE SUMPTER MINER An Indianapolis archaeologist, M. V. Millard, who has recently been making excavations iu Egypt, especially in the vicinity of the pyramids: has made known bodib novel and Btratllug vIowb hs the ro Hiilt of hit- researches. Mr. Millard claimH to have dlcHovured where Noah lived, where lie built the Ark, and 1. 1 ho iiHHortH that the builder of.jthe flrrit great vessel of which lihtoryjhaB proHervod an account was iiIho tho builder of the great pyramid of Glzeh. Ah to the Ark, Mr. Millard iilllrniH that It would coBt 8500,000 to build such a vobboI f today, and therefore lewardH Noah fas. tho drat, millionaire, or at leiiat that ho waa in a poHltlon to force vast multltudeH of niptt to work for him. Ah to the pyramid ct (lizeh, tho Indiana archaeoloKlHt Ih reported aa aayiuK that Noah built thlH wonder of tho world iu the earlier part of the fourth KiurptiHH dynasty, 'and not more thau 1200 yeara aftor tho expulaiou of Adam aud Rve from I'aradiHO. Wired reporta from London atato that Lombard Htroet llnanoiora con tinue to watoh tho niovomonta of the Amerioau market with intouao IntereBt; but the fooliux sproada that the upward trjnd of prices, though okooked for a time, rollootH tho proHperlty of tho Unltod StatoH rathor thau tho Wall atroot Invention known aa a "boom" iu atooka. It would HtirpviHo no one to find the next ten days HhnwiiiK higher llfturoH than any hitherto reached in the proBont bull advance. There Ih leas aud Icbb fear or a sUBtaiued hear movement. That the American market will con tinue to Ioho Hold Ih rcKarded aa highly probable; and. if for no othor reason, becaiiHo the continent drawn on New Vork, where mouoy Ih eiiHy, rather than on Loudon, where eon ditioiiH threaten a riae in tho mini mum diHonuut rate of the ilauk of liUnlaud--a thiiiK the continent doea not wiah to occur aud will do what it can to prevent. The Htatemeut is made that moro Hteel Ih now UHud iu the manufacture of writing peiiH thau iu implementa of war which proveH that the IlKiiroH juggled by the author of the Htatemeut can't tell the truth.
