Reilly Carpenter Mullane NATIONAL LEAGUE CONTEST WASHINGTON May Harry Wright the famous balm bail player is in town and called upon for his opinion as to the Jesus of the National League's the present season said to-day: "I am of the opinion that Detroit will win the championship of 1887 although there Is more doubt about it this season than in any that I can remember I mean by that that the clubs of the League are more evenly matched than at any former time during the history of the -League Notwithstand-- tug however I believe I am to a certain extent safe in predicting the Detroits the coming champions The strength of my faith in them lies principally in the fact that they are playing the same men this year as last The men know each other thoroughly and their team work as a consequence is excellent and they are at present the nub club who lice not met with difficulties in the way of Injured meg so far The result will be that they will pull steadily away from the other clubs in the early part of the season and although this gap may' be lessened I' do not think they will ever be passed" "nd who will get second place?" "Well there is some doubt about that but I sin inclined to believe the' will I know their players thoroughly and coneider their in-field as strong as any in the Replying to some complaint as to the Washington Club which he predictswill yet acquit itself with great credit Mr- Wright said: "Don't be too hasty even in condemning Any one who has ever played and what American boy has not knows that the beet of players will sometimes take a tumble and play wretchedly They seem to get a fever for errors They'll get it sometimes like a baby does the measles" pETROIT 18: INDIANAPOLIS 2 DETROIT May

In the May Century are two profusely illustrated articles under the above caption tion describing the discovery of Pharaoh's tomb and picturing its contents From the first article by Mr Wilson the photographer we quote this account of the way In which the tomb was located: "In a line of tombs beyond the Ramesseum lived four sturdy Arabs named Abd-er-Rasoul They supplied guides and donkeys to tourists who desired to visit the ruips of Thebes and sold them genuine and spurious When tbey found Iv: mummy It being forbidden by law to sell it the head and bands and feet were wrenched off and sold on the ely while the torso was kicked about the ruined temples until the jackals came And carried it away I purchased a head and band of one of the brothers amid the dark shadows of the temple at Qurneb Early in 1881 circumstantial evidence pointed to Ah med A d-er-R asoul as the one who knew more than be would tell Prof Maspero caused his arrest and he lay in prison at Keneh for some months He also suffered the bastinado and the browbeating of the women repeatedly he resisted bribes and showed no melting mood when threatened with execution His lips told no more than the unfound not as much Finally his brother Mohammed regarded the otter of Prof Maspero deemed It wise to make as worth more to bim than any sum be might hope to realize from future pillaging and made a clean breast of the whole affair How the tout brothers ever discovered the hidden tomb has remained a 'family secret' On July 5 1881 the wily Arab conducted Herr Emil Brugsch Bey curator of the Bulaq Museum to Delr-el-Ba art and pointed out the hiding place so long looked for A long climb it was up the stops of the western mountain till after scaling a great limestone clifft a huge isolated rock was found Behind this a spot was reached where the stones appeared to an expert observer and tomb-eearcher to have been arranged by hawk' rather than scattered by some upheaval of nature 'There' said the sullen guide and 'there' the enterprising Emil Bey with more than Egyptian alacrity soon had a staff oi Arabs at work hoisting the loose stones from a well into which they bad been thrown The shaft bad been sunk into the solid limestone to a depth of about forty feet and was about six feet square Before going very far a huge palm-log was thrown across the well and a block and tackle fastenel to it to hely) bring up the debris When the bottom of the shaft was reached a subterraneous passage was found which ran westward some twenty-tour feet and then turned directly northward con tinning into the heart of the mountain straight except where broken for about 200 feet by an abrupt stairway The passage terminated in a mortuary chamber about thirteen by twenty-three feet in extent and barely six feet in height There was found the Mummy of King Pharaoh of the Oppression with nearly forty others of kings queens princes and priests" HUNTINGTO 3 BLACK ITOL I CLOTHIER No 160 Church Street Ul A

there than we can save at home The bane of our life Is discontent We eay we will work so long and then We will enjoy ourselves But we find it just as ThAckeray has expressed it I was a boy" he said "I wanted some was a hadn't one When I was a man I had a shilling but I didn't want any taffy" But we say not one word against that splendid discontent that all the while makes a man strike for something better We like this idea that every boy born In America dreams of being President No man has any right to be content to do his best and not to do better to-morrow than be itl doing to-day But all that will come by keeping Close to a manly and dutiful life While we are going steadily along to whatever futtire awaits usthe grandest thing we can do is to feel sure that what we are doing for a day's work with all that we do tesidea is just the most blessed thing so far as we-can do and that we are very likely having the best time that can ever come to our life that this work and wife and home and children all they are and all they mean beat the world The saddest thing in our life Is our discontent when we ought to be more contented It is our birthright to get the good of life as we go along in these slinple and pare things thatto all true man and womanhood are like rain and sunshine to an apple tree But when we will not believe this and dream that -the beet of our life is to come when we bave made our fortune then we will sell otg birthright for a mesa of pottage But worse than Emn the pottage gives us the dyspepsia and then we lose the good of birthright and pottage together lodge
