THE VALLEY OF DEATH
THE MUMMIES AND DONKEY
HOYS.
Special to The Citizen
I have just returned from n Bhort
excursion into the Valley of Death,
nt Thebes, whero the royal mummies
of Egypt's klngB were found. Con
sidering the heat and dust, it would
not ho inappropriate to quote the
rest of the poet's lino and say,
"Backi from the mouth of hell."
This Is the land of summer heat,
never moderated by showers. All
signs of our own familiar temper
ate zone aro far behind. There Is
even a difference between this and
Cairo, whore, the thermometer had
been above 100 degrees a week be
fore wo arrived. We were COO miles
nearer the equator, and we could
distinctly feci the difference. The
grounds of the hotel were an earth
ly paradise. Palms towered above
the garden, while flowers and turtle
doves completed the tropical plct-'
ure. Roses, hlbiacus, oleanders,
pomgranates and cannas were the!
only flowers I could Identify, but
there were a dozen more varieties In
full bloom. Wo were to leave this
paradise In the early morning to ride
out into the desert to the tombs of
the ancient l'lmronhs.
Our train landed us at Luxor on
the opposite bank of the Nile before
11 o'clock at night. We were tired
and very dusty, for a big Mahometan
had appropriated the ladles' com
partment and the wash room, using
all the water to cleanse his feet
early in the afternoon before turn
ing townrd Mecca to say his pray
ers in the aisle of the car. We had
not secured guides, donkeys or tick
ets to the monuments. Wo were
told that tickets to the monuments,!
BPld by the government could not be:
obtained before the office hours. But
they did not know the American
hustle. We wanted to start while
It was cool. Our chief said we
could, so we bathed and slept the
sleep of the Just. Thanks to his
indomitable energy, by 8 o'clock the
next morning, guide, donkey, boys,
boatmen, lunch porter and all the
rest were at hand, ns well as thoi
necessary tickets.
The donkey boy of Egypt is a
necessary evil and a creature full of
guile. His word Is to be trusted Just
so far as it coincides with the travel
ler's knowledge. He will tell the
most unblushing falsehoods without
the quiver of an eyelid, even when
he knows that you are aware of his
untruthfulness. He is an inveterate
beggar. But he is a shrewd student
of human character and if be bad the
opportunity would soon grow rich.
Perhaps he is worth all the back
sheesh that he manages to wheedle
out of you for the diversion he
causes, making you forget the hard
ships of travel.
The leader of the gang of donkey
drivers at Thebes was a genius in
his line. From the moment we were
seated on our animals till the end
of the day his patter never ceased,
except when the guide was droning
out his story. The boy was only be
ginning to sprout a beard, but he
was master of all the craft of the
diplomat. When he had exhausted
the resources and the patience of the
chief of our party, he made the
rounds of all the other members to
recommend to their generosity his
less oratorical fellow donkey pilots.
Here is a short sample of his
speech: "Good morning! You see
my eye? My eye is to you. If you
are happy, I am happy. Your don
key suit you? Ver' nice donkey. Go
ver fast. Like rockln' chair. You
are ver' nice man. When I see you
1 know you are ver' ho-nest man.
Don't forget your donkey boy. Thank
you ver' much. He ver' thirsty.
Would like to buy some water.
Don't forget your donkey boy.
Good-bye. Thank you."
For directness of purpose I do not
know anything lu English classics
that equals this. This son of the
howling desert made use of the Eng
lish tongue In a way that might put
a high school graduate to shame.
This is not the whole of his speech
by any means. He reported it at
Intervals during the day, adding
verses from coon songs, quotations
from Roosevelt's speech, lines from
Mother Goose, sentiments from
Home, Sweet Home, bits of Ameri
can slang, fragments of misinfor
mation picked up from the guides,
and gems from Shakespeare. His
- latllity was wonderful. He was
rtalnly worth the price of the
v c!o show.
Wo had some twelvo miles of this
i.f and on during the day. When
o i an out of conversation he would
tart the donkeys to galloping while
he manufactured some fresh clo
quence or digested our tips. It did
not matter at all whether tho rid
ers wished to go fast or slow. Tho
donkey boys settled the question and
tho donkeys obeyed them. It was
no use to saw on tho bits, for tho
beast know that the rider was mere
ly an irritation to bo endured for
a day while tho driver was a tyrant
who continued through life.
Finally we discovered that when
tho driver wished to check tho don
key ho called "hush" to him. At
tho next turn, when tho drivers beat
tho donkeys to a gallop around two
sides of a melon field while they
cut across lots, I tried to hush my
donkey. I cried hush, shouted
hush, crooned hush, plead with him
to hush, reasoned with him, threat
ened him, cajoled him, all without
effecti until tho driver was reached,
standing like a grinning monument
of ebony. The donkoy dashed, up
and past him without slackening,
until the boy whispered the maglo
Byllnble, when he stopped so quick
ly ns almost to throw me to the
pommel.
Well, wo reached tho Tombs of
the kings at last, over five miles
from tho ferry, through a defile in
tho sandstono mountains, wilder
and moro barren than can be describ
ed. Except a landscape in the moon
nothing could bo more barren.
About 45 tombs of royalty have been
discovered, but there are a thous
and tombs of commoner men on tho
other side of tho ridge. Here were
found some of tho rarest treasures
of Egypt, which now enrich tho
matchless collection in the Egyptian
Museum of Cairo.
It was a great relief to escape from
the glare and heat of the desert Into
tobacco and Intoxicating liquors, and
the cool silence of these royal cham
bers of the dead. The general plan
of these tombs is the same. A long
incline followed by a flight of cut
Into the rock, ending In a rock-hewn
temple or sanctuary. Then another
flight of steps some 50 feet deeper
to tho burial chamber itself. Tho
walls are covered wlih brilliant dec
orations depicting the Jlfe of the
royal occupant and setting forth by
mystic symbolism the religion of the
Egyptians. Emblems of every sort
abound, the lotus, the scarab, the
life-giving wnters of tho Nile, the
various sacred animals, the Images
of the gods In bewildering vnrlety.
Hieroglyphic writing recites the his
tory and irtucs of the dead mon
archs, their triumphs, their glories,
their achievements.
We visited the tombs of Set! I,
Mcnepteh 11, and Amen Heteph II.
The mummy of the last-named still
lies in its sarcophagus 500 feet from
the surface. In a small chamber at
the side arc the mingled fragments
of mummies huddled together, per
haps those of his slaves. There they
all lie under the glare of the elec
tric light to be gaped at by globe
trotters after the long centuries of
silence. It seemed a kind of sacri
lege, the merchant of our party
said, but we would not willingly
have missed tho sight.
The governmont of Egypt has as
sumed tho care of all tombs, temp
les and antiquities, which assures
their proper preservation. It Is a
pity that this could not have been
done centuries ago before the tombs
were rifled and their contents de
stroyed by ruthless seekers after
treasure.
As we rode out into the heat of
the desert dust, I was impressed by
the sight of the mud-walled cabin of
the care-taker of these tombs of
royalty. It stands perched upon a
plnacle of rock, scarcely larger than
a dry goods box. A yellow dog, hav
ing a jackal's bark, guarded the
meager home. The leather-sklnnod
Arab who took with surly unthank
fulness the guide's tip given in our
behalf, stalked slowly up the height
as we rode away. We were hasten
ing to shade and green fields, and
soon or late to the far land of our
loved ones, but this creature, cap
able of love and hate and all the
emotions of our human life, lived
there with the dead, lived there in
the endless summer heat and dust
with his starved and miserable yel
low dogs.
THE VALUE OF THE MUbKKATS.
Agricultural Department Finds
Troublesome Animal is Valu
able for Fur.
Washington, May 7. The depart
ment of agriculture does not con
fine itself strictly to agricultural
affairs, as will be noted by the num
ber of bulletins that have been is
sued on subjects which do not per
tain in the least to agriculture. All
of these bulletins are labeled "Farm
er's Bulletin," and most of them
pertain to problems of the farm
One of tho latest of these deals with
the muskrat. One scarcely would
expect that the muskrat filled an
important place in farm life, but the
agricultural department has dlscov
ered that It is very useful becauso
of tho demand for fur, and tho
muskrat is a great fur producer,
Tho new bulletin regarding the
muskrat treats of Its value as a fur
bearing animal. Occasionally some
humorist writes a story to show that
the muskrat figures prominently as
a part of the celebrated Maryland
terrapin, but tho writer of tho pres
ent bulletin says that tho ancient
owners of America, now our civiliz
ed Indians, highly esteemed the
muskrat ns an artlclo of food. Of
course tho Indian taste is not to be
taken as a guarantee, but there is
nn reason why the muskrat shoulu
not be as good eating as tho rabbit
nr tho Rnulrrel.
Another feature of tho muskrat
dwelt upon in this now bulletin is
its destructlveness of gardens nnd
i-rtinn. Ho Is a nartlcular enemy to
tho rice planter, and tho gulf coast
residents have to fight him an mo
timn. The rats aro very destruc
tlve to tho water lilies that aro
grown in private grounds and in
nubile nnrka. and along tho Atlan
in pnnRt. tho tidal meadows often
nro Inlurnil bv them. The bulletin
mentions tho damage that the musk-
rat does to mill dams and to cannis,
Irrigation ditches, lco Iiouds and
lovees. At the same time, tho musk
rat is becoming so valuable as a
fur-boarlnc animal that It makes up,
in some measure, for its destructive
qualities. Tho now bulletin on tho
muBkrat elves a creat deal or lnior-
mntlnn na to trnnnlntr and as to
marketing the fur. No doubt per
sons who wont to destroy the rat on
niiniint nf tho dnmaere it does, as
well as thoso who want to secure
him for the money value of njs iur,
will bo interested In Farmers' uui
letln 396.
THE OLD STAGE DUIVEU.
Making His I.nst Htnnd in the Fnr
West.
It Is only in isolated regions of the
West, where tho thing wo call civil
ization has by chance neglected its
duties, ns tho plowman leaves weedy
patches In tho cornors of tho Hold,
that the cowboy may still bo found
unspoiled; and It Is oven a. rarer for
tune to encounter a stage driver
whom readers of Bert Harte could
recognize. What tho homesteader
and the sheepman havo done to tho
one, the railroad has done to the
other; and the sadness of hastening
extinction hangs over them both.
Hero Is Estes Park hnppy, un
rallroadcd land! tho coming of the
stage Is a dally happening, In which
every Inhabitant takes an Interest so
keenly porsonnl that the event itself,
as well as tho Interest, becomes
spectacular.
Toward 4:30 o'clock anxiety sits
gaunt upon every countenance. Will
tho stage be late? Somebody who
drove over Park Hill In the morning
said tho roads were heavy. A
frelghtor from Lyons was stuck for
three hours on the other side of the
pass. Tho outlook grows gloomier
every minute, and all eyes are
strained with gazing at the dusty
road townrd the place where it dis
appears behind the shoulder of a bill.
It needs no over fanciful Inclination
to conceive, after listening to Im
patient exclamations on all sides,
that the continued tolernblllty of
many lives, as well as the further
existence of Estes Park as a habit-
ablo place, depends upon tho arrival
of that stage, with Its pouches of
mall. No one may know the golden
increments of expectancy who has
not waited for a letter by stage.
A boy (of course) perched pre
cariously on tho roof of the store first
descries the stage whirling in Its
nimbus of dust around tho promon
tory. Upon his shout the groups
suddenly rearrange themselves and
the relaxation of facial muscles pres
ages new faith In tho ultimate worth
of human existence. Meanwhile the
stage, In a kind of final fury of
peed, careens grandly up the stretch
of road, sweeps through the open
space ordered by the postmaster,
makes an elated swing for position,
and stops at the postofflce door with
the wheels within an inch of the
steps, but never grazing them. To
have scraped them would have been
a humiliation from which the driver
never could have recovered.
The mall and the passengers out,
the driver takes his tired team to the
stable, and then loses no time re
turning afoot to the postofllce,-
where, having accepted one of many
proffered cigars, he deigns to make
Spartan-like replies to the volumes
of questions and tentative remarks
timidly addressed to him. He is a
good fellow at heart, tolerant of the
common world, and willing at times
to entertain with speech as well as
deeds.
But to-day Is not his day for loqua
city. Down at Lyons, where the Bur
lington ends he heard a bit of news
that one of tho proposed branch
lines of the railroad now building
will probably have Estes Park for Its
terminus, and his heart Is filled with
sadness. By and by the crowd, see
ing his mood, leave him to his re
flections, and tho departing people,
hurrying away by the four roads
they came, leaving him leaning
against a post, with the postmas
ter's woolly dog squatting at his feet
and looking sympathetically up In
his face.
Tho stage driver has let his cigar
go out, and his eyes aro fixed upon
the west, where , behind the snowy
rango the sun is tumbling Into his
world bed of rosewood Inlaid with
pearl and draped with cloud cur
tains of frail pink and tender yellow
hues. But it Is not the sunset he
sees. Behind Old Flat Top yonder,
thirty miles away, are tho grading
camps of the new railroad that Is

MODE ABOUT SPLIT-LOG ROAD
DRAG.
In all sections of tho country nro
heard nothing but words of praise
for tho work being accomplished by
the King split-log drng, the extreme
ly slmplo devico which is putting
earth roads in n condition like boule
vards. Tho drag has been strongly
recommended by tho United States
Department of Agriculture nnd by
supervisors and farmers generally.
It can be made and operated by any
person. Less than fivo dollars will
pay tho cost ot construction and a
half-hour's use of It after a rain will
keep dirt roads for a distance of a
mile In better condition than most
macadam roads.
A road maintained by the drag is
in perfect condition. It has an ex
cellent crown and a hard and smooth
surface which sheds the water read
ily. Ruts are obliterated and mud
holes unknown. Supervisors have
found that they can pay farmers
from 30 to 50 cents an hour to
operate the drags after each rain 1
and maintain a mile of dirt road to
compare with a State road at a cost
estimated in a government report at
from ?1.50 to ?6 n year per mile.
HIS "HARD LUCK" STORY.
"I know," said tho seedy individ
ual who sat In the corner of the
smoking car, "that you who have
never had n serious' setback take
mighty little stock in hard-luck stor
ies. Thero's no reason why you
should believe all the tales you hear,
but in my case it's different, for I
can prove nil I say. Yes, I lost ah
my money In ostrich farming. I was
pretty well fixed when I started in,
nnd went at It on a big scale. For
the first year or two I got along
pretty well, I 'diversified' some,
raising enough grain and fodder for
the birds and my other stocK, and
some to sell. But the market was
about fifty miles distant and I began
to worry over how I was to do the
hauling. That didn't worry me
long, however, for the birds began
to multiply pretty fast and soon I
discovered I wasn't raising enough
for them to eat. I began to skimp
the mules to feed the birds, and in
this way weakened my farm force
and consequently decreased my crop.
Well, sir, things went on until those
birds ate up the harnesses, -the hoes
and rakes and all the other farming
tools, and I didn't know what on
earth to do. I was about worried
to death, and went to bed one night
not knowing what the end would be.
When I got up the next morning I
found the birds had eaten up the wire
fence around the farm and escaped.
I never saw them again. That's
why I'm broke, and why 1 am on
ray way back home."
"A Bad Speculation."
There are pentltents and penitents.
Some are sorry that they did wrong;
others regret the unpleasant coasc
quences of their evil deed. Governoi
Bnborur of Virginia once defended a
man charged with stealing a pair ot'
shoes. The man was convicted.
One day, years after, the governo.
was standing conversing with several
lawyers In front of the court-house,
when a man approached and said he
wished to speak with him. They walk
ed off together, and the man asked:
"Squire, do you remember I once
hired you to defend me?"
"Yes."
"Well, squire, the taking of them
shoes was the worst job, I ever did. I
didn't keep 'em a week. They put me
In jail; I gave you the only hone I
had to defend me; my crop was los:
'cause I couldn't see to it; and then,
squire, they gave me thirty-nine lashes
nt last. 1 tell you, squire, It was a bad
speculation."
