Winding between the stony Arabiandesert on the east and the heated sands of the Saharaon the west, the bosom of the calm river receives fromeither hand the soft airof the desert primeval,a thousand years thesame, and fresh andpure as on the morn­ing of creation. Sur­roundings so peculiarare e nj 0 y e d by noother river and on noother river can thevoyager find so potentan elixir of. life ashere greets his nostrilsevery morning, when hecomes on deck to viewa tropical sunrise. Inthese wintry days, amidunavailing shivers andblowing of blue fingers,it is a welcome and re­gretful memory.To avoid loss of time in ascent, during my last win­ter's Nile voyage, I went up the river from Cairo,some two hundred and twenty-five miles by the Eng­lish railway to the beautiful city of Assiut, and thussaved many days sailing against a powerful currentat high water. Here we. were greeted with the usualoriental reception at the hands of a howling, strug­gling, pushing, sweating, cursing mob of natives, " father was a buffalo II(,abuk gamus), whichanswers to the ass inour own vocabulary ofopprobrium. Followedby a mob of all whowere able by the utmoststretching to touch ourluggage with the tipsof their fingers and thusestablish a claim forbaksheesh, we madeour way to the river, where we found the dahabiyeh ,or native cabin-sailboat, which a 'Coptic friend hadhired for me, a welcome refuge from further persecu - .tion. Time will not permit a full description of thisNile craft, with which every reader of Miss Edwardsis familiar; suffice it to note some things which willbe plain from the illustration. The after half of thecraft is occupied by a long cabin <;ontaining- a dining-PYHAMID FROM DASHUR GROUP WITH DESERT PATROL IN FOREGROUND.704 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.room, sleeping berths, dressing-room, cupboards, lock­ers, etc. The roof of this cabin serves as a deck forthe voyager, where he may lounge about on cushionsand divans under a gaily colored oriental awning.The forward half of the vessel is the sailors' deck,and at the tip of the prow is perched a queer little boxsome four feet square, which forms the sanctum of thecook. The vessel is rigged with two enormous lat­teen sails, and a crew of six or eight men is usuallynecessary to manage it. These are commanded by afirst and second "reis" (captain), who with cook,cabin boy and camp servant make up the "ship'scomplement."A day or two were spent in making the necessarypurchases among the picturesque bazaars of Assiut,then several hours before sunset. were past in vainlywhistling for wind, and finally we lay at our mooringsfor another night. Nextmorning there was nowind and at sunrise as this, lolling among the cushions on the shadeddeck, it would be easy to dream away the days andforget all the practical duties of this workaday world,but even here there are drawbacks. Chief amongthese were the flies; in Cairo we had been pesteredby the mosquitoes. These now disappeared only tomake way for tormenting swarms of flies. Habeeb,the camp servant, on being asked why so beautiful acountry should be thus afflicted, replied, "' Ana mush'a,.ij� ya sitt (I do not know, lady), but they camewhen Moses was here." The first night out Habeebcame to me with bad news; the dahabiyeh had sprunga leak while we were in mid-river, he said; the reishad concealed it from me and we had gone on allthe afternoon with the hold full of water to the deckand the craft just on the verge of going to the bottom.This was because the reis was a miserly old villain,and had not properlycaulked the bottom forseveral seasons. Earlynext morning I had adiver come over fromthe neighboring villageand with the first streakof daylight he droppedunder the hull and ex­plored every seam ofthe bottom from bowto stern. He found theleak and stopped it, re-o maining under water foran astonishing lengthof time.A day or two afterthis we were threatenedwith danger from theother element. 0 u rthe sailors sprangashore, formed a long.liue along the tow ropeand we began to leavethe beautiful towers andminarets of Assilltslowly astern as theygradually sank belli ndthe intervening palm.groves. At noon a finenorth wind sprang up,the second reis broughtthe craft alongside thehigh bank with a turnof the helm and thetired sailors leaped onboard. Quickly theysprang aloft and shook out the great sail; as it belliedout in an enormous curve, they shouted a song ofpraise to Allah, the waters boiled and foamed asthe current piled them up under the bow and away wewent for a long reach southward. The blue river sentback the hue of the most perfect sky on earth; itsshores fringed with the delicate green of the palmgroves, beneath which nestled picturesque little vil­lages of mud huts, showing in somber gray againstthe foliage; beyond stretched away the fertile bottoms,clad in the richest verdure and behind all rose thepale yellow of the distant cliffs, to mingle with themisty purple of the far horizon. The boat speedson and on, while the sense of beauty and of mysterythat is in the very air, is deepened and intensified,when rounding some jutting, palm-clad point, a longreach of shining river discloses in the distance somehoary ruin, looking out from the bending groves totell its story of departed glory. Amid such scenesPYRAMID AFTER EXCAVATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.main dependence was the second reis, a magnificent,muscular fellow, who stood all day at the helm.One day as we were quietly reading 011 deck, he sud­denly shouted to a man forward, " Ed-duchan ga'i min.fen? (Where does the smoke come from ?)" and thenwith a leap like a tiger, he was down upon the for­ward deck and dashing water over our little kitchen,which was breaking out in flames. With many in­vocations to Allah and the Prophet the fire wasquickly subdued, for there was no dearth of water inmid-stream.With such adventures as these and among the everpresent flies, there was no danger of forgetting thepractical duties and privileges of the voyage, nor ofdreaming away the days in rapturous admiration oflovely landscapes.On the evening of December rst, eight days' out,sundown found us at Barud where Mr. Petrie hadbeen excavating the previous winter. The natives,UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY. 705under the foot of the distant cliffs to the west, I sawa little tent of faded canvas pitched on the margin ofthe desert, and among the natives standing about onecould discern a European. I felt like Stanley on hisdiscovery of Livingstone. A bronzed man, dressedonly in shirt and trousers, wearing a slouched hat,his stockingless feet thrust into a pair of dilapidatedshoes, came forward so greet me. It was Quibbell,Petrie's assistant. And so I found the great ex­cavator.Of my stay at Mr. Petrie's camp on the returnvoyage, of his discovery of a new city, of the remark­able finds there, six cases of which Mr. Petrie hassince sent me, of the long voyage to the cataract, ofmy excavation of � tomb at Thebes, of a stay at theremarkable city of Amarna, where I was able to makethe first complete copy of the inscriptions there, ofdays in the desert purchasing antiquities for the Uni­versity, of a visit to the excavations at the pyramidsof Dashur, a future number of the WEEKLY mayoffer opportunity to speak. At the last place M. deMorgan last spring took out an enormous treasure ofjewelry, numbering 5,520 pieces, with a gold weightof thirty-nine pounds; they exhibit workmanship ofthe time of Abraham, which is hardly surpassed to­day. The illustrations shows a pyramid from theDashur group, with the desert patrol in the fore­ground.who always crowd down to the river to see thestranger, said that Petrie had been there and crossedover to the other (western) bank, where he was incamp, but I was certain from a letter from Mr. Petriethat he must be further up. Passing a village nextmorning, Habeeb went ashore in the felucca (smallboat) to procure milk; on his return he brought withhim the shech of the village, who said he knewwhere Petrie was and could take me to him. Howlong? Three quarters of an hour,-then an hour.Knowing the prevailing habit among the natives oftelling the traveler only what they think he wouldlike to hear, true or not, I told him if he could guideme there in an hour I would pay him well, but if ittook longer, not a piastre. With a joyful" tayyib "(an right), the shech assented and we prepared to go.By telling one of the villagers that I was the mudir's(governor's) brother, Habeeb succeeded in finding forme two wretched little donkeys. It was a bad countrysaid Habeeb, so he procured two enormous Arab pis­tols from the reis. I put on my revolver, the shechtook his rifle, and, followed by one of the sailors armedwith a staff, we mounted the donkeys, the shechleaped to his horse and so the cavalcade rode awaythrough the palm grove. Passing over questions,evasions and lies innumerable on the part of ourguide, suffice it to say, that we rode on under thebroiling sun for two hours and a quarter I At lastL1LLlI\N RUSSELL."And when are you coming to see my room,mamma? " said 1.I live in the city. It is not really my fault, for thefamily only moved in three months ago. I go overon Sundays, but my real home is my room on thecampus. I have it fixed to suit me. Over there theycompel me to sleep with my little brother; he is avery disagreeable person, always kicking about. Mymother had never seen my room at college, but wishedto. I was cordial, but not pressing, and hithertoother things had interfered. I had hoped-but oneevening those hopes were blasted, for mamma said,calmly:, , I am coming soon now to see your room, George."Then I remarked, as I have said, "But when,mamma? "" I hope this week, George."Mamma is stately and severe. I think she wasbrought up more strictly than I have been. Her lastremark did not suit me at all. I said:" Could you set a definite day, so that I might beprepared to receive you? Sometimes my room iscluttered up." I am crafty. "No, my son," said she. "My engagements forthe week are still indefinite. I can only say that Imay come any day except Wednesday.""Ah well, mamma, just as you say," I replied.This was terrible. To keep the room in good condi­tion for a whole week, on the chance of her comingany day! But Wednesday would be a blessed oasis.You will already have divined that she came onWednesday.Smith ane Tompkins were in my room, drinkingmy health, when she rapped. As the door was notlocked, I said nothing. Mamma rapped again."This," thought I, "is evidently some misguidedtailor. I will foil him." And I remained silent,waving my hand at Smith. who seemed on the pointof speech. Mamma turned the knob and entered."These," said I, after explaining the delay, byinventing a book-peddler (I said nothing about the'tailor, for mamma does not approve of bills), "theseare Mr. Smith and Mr. Tompkins.

That," said I, "is a Kelly girl."" Who are the Kellys?" asked mamma. "I don'tthink I have met them yet.",'I You .mistake;" I explained. "A Kelly girl isone who lives in' Kelly Hall, one of .the dormitories.They are all very nice: Did you notice my new cal­endar? Awfullypretty calendar, I think."I' And so this is a Kelly girl," said mamma." Wha t is her mime? She is very pretty."H Yes," said I, "we all think so. Her name isHayes-Fannie Hayes. Her father is a Baptist min­ister. He lives in Dakota, I believe.""She is very well dressed for a clergyman's daugh­ter," observed mamma."The girls here all dress well, remarked 1. Butmamma had passed on, and found something in a box.She took one out and bit it, tentatively." Those," observed I, hastily, "are discs used inexperimental psychology. They are of differentcolor, as you see, red, white and blue. We passthem rapidly before the eye of the subject, who thendescribes his sensations as he sees the different colorscome and go. Sometimes an excitable man will growquite violent over those chips."" What do you call them? " asked mamma."Experiment-discs," said 1. '" Chips' is the slangname. Look at my portieres. Awfully swagger por­tieres, I think."Mamma was not looking at the portieres. She wascarefully examining the signs that were strewedaround the walls. Some of them read I I Hofbrau "and some I I Bigest Glas of Beer in the Sity," andothers, other things."Those," I threw in presently, "belong to mychum, whom you have met. He is an awfully nicefellow, but when he was a Freshman he roomed witha man who had had these signs given him, and thisroom-mate gave them to him, and he put them up here to remember his room-mate by.: 1: have often askedhim to take them down, but for the sake of old timesbe hates to."Just here my chum, not having been warned, camein, and said, I I Oh, Mrs. Magee, so glad to see you .George showing you the room? Some good signs,don't you think? George and I picked them uptogether,in our younger days, when we were Fresh­men. Too staid for that sort of thing now, of course,but it wasn't such bad fun, except when you werecaught. "" George has been telling me," remarked mamma,severely, "that these signs belonged to a room-mateof yours in your, Freshman year. I must say I dis­approve of them."I quailed. My chum and I have roomed togethersince our second day in college. However, he rose tothe situation."Ob, yes," said he; "George Peters was ratherwild. Can't say I do think it's the right thing to do,to rag a sign. No."I breathed again.Mamma crossed the room. Horror! she was pick­ing up Lillian Russell. What was she going to do?Was I lost? I was. My chum said:'I Have you ever seen Miss Russell, Mrs. Magee? "He did not know how strictly mamma was broughtup. She said:'I Miss Russell?""Yes," said I, desperately, "the boys call MissHayes I Rustle' because she is so quick in her move­ments."My chum looked puzzled. Mamma frowned.I' I do not believe in nicknames for young girls,"she said, "No, I have never met Miss Hayes, Mr.Wyman. Do you know her? ""Er-yes-no--I have just met her," said mychum. I broke in." Fred doesn't go out much, mamma. I think you'have only seen Miss Fannie Hayes at Kelly Hallonce, have you not, Fred?""That is all," said he. He is very quick. Hehad an engagement almost immediately, and wentaway.Mamma sat the afternoon with me. Several camein but soon went away again-as soon as they openedthe door, in fact. I told mamma many things aboutthe University, mentioning especially the head pro­fessors and the Y. M. C. A. When she rose to go Iwas quite sure she had forgotten about Miss Hayes,nee Russell--but no. She said:" George, I really do not like the thought of yourintimacy with a young girl whois so nicknamed aboutas this Miss .Hayes. I wish you would give me thephotogra ph. "," What for?

Every regard foreven the shadow of decency was cast to the winds.Illustrative of the character of our council is this in­cident: One of the aldermen from the ward in whichthe University is situated (though, be it said to hiscredit, he was one of the minority), opposed the amend­ment for a three-cent fare on the cars to be run, onthe ground that three per COlt compensation had al­ready been voted and it would be wrong to raise thatto six per cent!

Ewing is still in. the Univer­sity, but it is not definitely settled whether or not hewill remain during the football sea,son next year.

Those nice little services that only womenknow how to render, as well as how to neglect, are aconstant and agreeable surprise to the new students.The attitude which the instructors assume towardthe students is not to be noted simply at receptions,where, nobody is supposed to have on his Sundaymanners; but on the street, on the train, in the halls,at football games, and everywhere there is an eager­ness on the part of the professor to know the studentsocially.

Longmans & Co. pp.viii. 366.The work, though not large, is exceedingly valuable. Itseems to show us that naturalism, which for some time, hadseemed, in certain quarters, to carryall before it, is losing itshold on the minds .of meu. Science has begun to criticise itsown presuppositions, to philosophize with some method andto realize the inadequacy of the ideas in which it has clothedits inmost truths. Since experience, in itself, gives us no cri­terion of reality, instead of dictating to otber aspects oflife, it mu st be conteut to place itself on the same footing withthem. No single system may be altogether satisfactory butthere is a growing opiniou that the nature of things must haveadequate satisfaction for moral, sesthetic and religious needs,as well as for the intellectual and physical.In criticism the author is keen and searching yet fair andintelligent. Many will not agree with all the arguments ad­vanced but I think none can say that his objections are notclearly and fairly made. In the whole exposition there isample evidence of perfect familiarity with the ground of de­bate and of a brave u nfl inchi ng desire to push all inquiry tothe limit.The style is as noteworthy as the spirit. Clear and simple,for this reason, it is most forcible. There is here no groundfor an objection, that we do not know what is being aimed atand that we have a demonstration of the obscure by the moreobscure. S. F.
