They represent Rameses II. The wonderful carvings presented much of Interest to the travelers, who remarked about the marvelous state of preservation of the temple and its works of art. The journey was continued an hour later worthwards through wondertul river scenery, Colonel and Mrs. Roosevelt oc- cupled chairs in the bow of the steamer, thoroughly enjoying the beauties of ihe early morning, and as & mall steamer passed the ex-president, acknowledged the shouts and cheers from the passengers by Jumping to his feet and waving his hat. Soon after reaching Shellahl the Roose- velt party took a launch and proceeded to Philae, crowded with Interesting monu- ments. The oldest bullding on the_islands dates from B, C. 30, and the chief deity reveren¢ed was Isis. From Philae the launch continued to As- suan dam, where a landing was made. Trolleys, worked by hand and running on narrow rails, were in readiness, and an ex- | cellent opportunity was afforded for a com- plete inspection of the works. Two of the engineers accompanied the party, and Colonel Roosevelt found It possible to se- cure details of the work on both the old and the new dams. ? Lunch was' served in the dining hall of the Cataract hotel, Colonel Roosevelt's ta- ble, at which the engineurs jolned the party, belng raised above the others, S0 that the ex-president sat as on a dais, for all the other guests to gaze upon. 'There was jno intrusion; however, on the privacy of the party, which spent less than half an hour at the table. Then they embarked again for a visit to the tombs at Mount Grenfell. / The return to Shellal was then made, and the Roosevelt party arranged to spend the night on board the steamer. Early tomor- row morning the visitors will leave for Luedor by the regular express train. A slight change has been made in Colonel Roosévelt’s program in Europé. He will re- main'tn €Copennaen from thebarternson” of May % to_the foflowing morning, and will reach 'Ohristiania shortly after noon on May 8. staying there for three full days.

OMAHA, March 10.-T0 the Editor of The Bee: Back of this price agitation and the demand that congress and the president “do something" to somebody in relation to eost of living, is an important fact which is be- ing overiooked. To a great extent, as I see it, this complaint against high prices is an eastern moyement. The first strenuous complaint against the advancing prices of meats began' in New York and was fomented and fostered by the sensational newspapers of that ecity. It was that agitation which led up to the prosecu- tion of the packers in 184. The fact Is that the east has become dependent on the west for foodstuffs. Fifteen years ago the west was mortgaged to the eastern money-lend- ers and the inter¢st on these loans made the west tributive to the east. But the west has paid its debis to the east, and now the east owes the west In the form of bank de- Dosits and otherwise from half a biillon to & billion doflars, The east is mainly in- dustrial. None of the aastern states pro- duces foodstuff enougli to' support is own population. Thus the east has to buy’its food of the west, In addition to paying in- terest on western money. To offset. this, the east must sell manufactured goods or securities to the west. As for manufactures, the west s now rapldly getting into posi- tion to manufacture most of the goods which It requires. This economic breach between the east and the west must lnevitably widen. In- vestigation and legislation ean not prevent It. The packers have not caused it and thelr prosecution or persecution will not af- fect 1t in any appreclable degree. In the tariff revision movement, the first strenuous agitation was' from the shoe manufacturers of New England. They wanted low tariff leather 8o that they could make and sell shoes made of mported pends on the margin of profit between cost of living and the cost of raw materlals, as compared with the selling price of good But the economic situation of the east is not hopeleas. Kvery cent that is added to wheat, copn ot other produce makes avall- able lands In the east that have been aban- doned. On these farma expensive methods will have to be resorted to—methods such as prevall In Japan and China. In the mean- time, the readjustment, of prices will go on and the easf will have to buy western £oods at western priges, or western pro- ducers will send their goods to forelgn mar- kets—perhaps by way, of gulf ports, and the Atlantic cities wiil be left out of the trans- action altogetlier. CONSUMER. Mexican Worals, 3 SOUTH OMAHA, March' 19.—To the Ed- ftor of The Bee: Because you accorded me the privilege of your “Letter Box" recently, T have been plied with Inquiries, both sin- cere and sarcastic, corcerning the subject matter of Bishop Nuelsen's sermon last Sunday on “Mextoan Religion. Candidly, some wag, _considering Lent was a sultable time, mask have handed the €oo0d bishop a flsh story, when he quotes a “they say" statistic of 40 per cent lllegiti- te births; or .else, some. new creed Is spreading -at an alarming rate in_the ancient seat of the Aztecs.

" Undoubtedly, when the Mexlicans have become sufficlently * imbued with' “the spirit of the religlon of Christ as it is known and quite genefally practiced in thoroughly modernized coyritries,” that 40 per cent will never get thé chance to flgure in either the legitimate or illegitimate col- umns of the census report of Mexico.

Young when you don't Know him as well as Omaha docs) was among his friends againlast night. It is true that more of them might have been piywent without breaking down the theater wally, but none could have been more earnest in thelr welcome. And how they aid like him In a “straight'y comedy part. He was a Ereat success hére in the musical eomedy roles he has had, but here Is one that 18 just @ little different from the others, and Mr, Young shines in it, as {Bill" savs, “like a good deed in a naughty world." He has u fine chance for genuine comedy work, with just enough of serious playing to glve a zest to the drolleries of which he is so capable a producer, Sven In the moet serfous moments he adds a little fillp of fun by some qualnt twist to the language, and thus keeps the matter from approaching anything ke solemnity. Johnnle Young 18 at his best when he Is pursuing a girl through the mist of com- plications ralsed by the guthor. and in this play he Is at home. He et out to pursue some money, but finds that the bank roll and the maiden are inextricably combined, and in spite of tho endeavors of ‘lh-' lawyers and his “‘best friend he s {torced at last to take both, and: doesn't |4ind It so hard to do. The story Is (hat {two old soldiers, joint owners of an estate, left it to the nlece of one and the nephew of the other on the condition that the wo |wed by a certain date. The property be- |comes valuable, and the young people, who have never seen each other, are brought together and wedded in the dark. They separato, with the understanding that the wife Is to have a divorce. Just before the year she has to walt is up the bridegroom returns and finds the girl he has wedded In so strange a way is really the girl he has been in love with and despaired of meeting. He also finds that his college <hum and mentor in the marriage is quictly walting for, the divorce court to untie tho knot to take the girl and her share of the estate. The last two acts are, devoted to) straightening out this complication and provide for some excellent comedy work. Mr. Young is doing very well in the role of the bridegroom and Miss Rilal Is show- ing excellent capacity. in the ingenue role of the young wife. The rest of the cast is well selected and the play is given with 1 snap that makes it go well, S “The County Chiirman’ at the Boyd. Albert Morrison is more than rédeeming | his promise of good results as a comedian in the part of Hon. Jim Hackler in “The County Chalrman” this week. He has &hown on many occasions his adaptabllity for this sort of work, and in this great part he takes his opportunity at its best. His dry delivery of the worldly wisdom of the experlenced, cynical, ‘“practical” politiclan 1s done most deliciously, and the tenderncss that crops out from time to time ‘as the result of the big-hearted, gen- erous. nature; that lies so close nnder his assumption of coldness, comes with the utmost naturalness. 1In the great third act; where he denounced Elias Rigby and shows how nedr he 1s 'to achleving the vengeance he has walted on for so many years, and then renounces his triumph because the woman he has loved all his life appeals to him, he reaches a climax he seldom attains. He has never done anything better in Omaha. Mr. Ingraham is in nis glory in the role of Sassafras Livingstone, and “acts the part as it he had studled and played negro characters all his life. Mr. Duggan is doing well with the rolé of Ellas Rigby. Mr, Dudley 18 getting a lot of fun squt of the role of the windmill drummer, and Mr., Mithers as Editor Cleaver and Mr, Alderson as Jupiter Pettaway, leader of the Antfoch Fife and Drum corps, are both showing commendable zeal in thelr work. The other characters of the long ljst are well ‘placed. Miss Gates makes Lucy Rigby a sweetly charming glrl, just as she should be, and Miss Hudson 16 scoring a personal hit in the role of Mrs. Rigby. She shows splend- idly in her appegl to Jim Hackler. 'Miss Forester is also doing' a fine bit in the soubrette part of Chick Elsley. The play is well mounted, and under_the direction of Mr. Campbell is going Very smoothly and: effectively.

England s really bear- | ing off a large share of the honors this week, for there are besides Miss Lloyd a pair of droll comedians, the McNaughtons, from the same land. Thelr burlesque of a dagger duel and a boxing. match will be voted by many the funniest thing seen In a long tme.
