' WOMAN BURIED ALIVE. Yonn* Udy Seised with Catalepsy. Interred, and Swifocates In Her Caaket. A letter received in Paris from Buenos Ayres records the death of Mlle. Cambaceres, a descendant of the famous French general and a member of one of the leading families in the Argentine capital, under most dis tressing circumstances, says a Paris correspondent of the New York Her ald. The unfortunate young lady had just turned 18 years of age. and her birth day was celebrated by a grand recep tion. All her friends came to offer their congratulations and brought presents. Tn the evening Mlle. Cambaceres went up tn her room to ¿re.«* for the opera. She was in the act of putting on her hat. when she fell to the ground, apparently dead. The funeral took place within -4 as under municipal law a corpse nu«t not be kept longer, on account f the heat and the danger of decom- -writion. \ few days afterward someone start ed the theory that Mlle. C.mbeceres had been poisoned, .nd the authorities ordered the body to be disinterred and , „ost-mortem examination made When the coffin was opened it was found, to the horror of every one that the Veil which covered the face of the „„fortunate girl w as torn and her face ¿ratched all over From theie fact, it appeared clear that Mlle. < ambac- »re«1 had been buried .live and had torn the veil and «r.tehed her face tn her struggle to get out of the coffin. The case, though not reported tn the press, has produced a most painful taXsion in Bueno. Ayres, the more so as Mlle. Cambaeere* was very pretty »nd beloved by all who knew her.

GO TO The evil of monopolies and rings was known to the ancients, Aristotle, referring to them in his “Politics,'' and then, as now, it was found necessary to hold them in check by legislation. The monopolist was in Boman law called a Dardanarius. and published under the Lex Julia de Annona, says London Answers. Monopolies of clothing, fish and all articles of food were prohibited by EmperoT Zeno under pain of con fiscation and exile; so that it is certain that the “ring»" of the ancient days were as mischievous as those of to-day. At Athens a law limited the amount of corn a man might buy. The earliest recorded instance we have was a corn “ring.” There is an ancient tradition that the king who made Joseph his prime minister and committed into his hands the entire administration of Egypt was Apepi. Apepi was one of the shep herd kings and ruled over the whole of Egypt, as Joseph’s Pharaoh seems to have done. The prime minister, dur ing seven years of remarkable plenty, bought up every bushel of corn bey ond the absolute needs of the Egyptians and stored it. During the terrible fam ine that fallowed, he was sure to get TILLAMOOK ABSTRACT his own price, and bartered corn suc cessfully for the Egyptians’ money, TRUST CO. cattle and lands, and taking one-fifth for Pharaoh, made him supremely wealthy.
