An Indian Mummy.

Vancouver, Smith, who represents toe American Museum of Natura! History in New York, has been on the coast for three monthe looking up Indian relics. He arrived here yesterday afiernoon from the Harrison lake district, where he made the strangest find of ell~a well preserved mummy, which he says may be overa thousand years old, Hesays it is without doubt a dead Indian chieftain. He sent the body to New York. The discovery was made two davs ago, when he came acrose a atone bearing a hieroglyphical inscription. It did not take him long to ascertain that this was the door of a hermetically sealeJ cave. The cave had been cut out of a rock. The body was preserved in just the same uanner as an Egyptiao mummy.

Under the new reciprocal agreement the United States ie to reduce the duty on sugars by

124 percent.andto remove from oranges,

citrus fruite, and pineapples 20 per cent of the present tariff. Jamaica, in return, surrenders import

duties on American goods to the amount of $120,000 annually, twice as valuable a concession as the islanders expected a month ago would be made, Thia provi- siou of the azreement is sure to be as dis- tasteful to the British manufacturers as the United States’ concession will be to the sugar planters and orange growers, but Jamaica’s prosperity has had to be consulted, and the Colonial Office is looking to vnbsid:z-d steamship lines ty nullify the arrangements effect prejud.cial to British ioterests.

Two allegorical figures grace the pedestal, representing in- dustry and integrity—a youth compass in band, poriag dilgeotly over a chart, and a heroic feminine figure holding a shield which bears the legend “Duty was his law, and Conscience his ruler.” From base to crown the statue will be at least 25 feet Ligh.
