Il valuable antique Hnscription.-In
the HIppodrome at Constantlnople NAV
still be seen the remains of venerable
trophy of the Persian war, rhe bronze SER
pent, which, with the gold tripod il sup
ported, was dedicated to the Delphian
Apollo by the allied Greeks after the VIC
tory Of PlatRa, as tenth of the Persian
spoil. On the bronze serpent, which serv-
ed as base for the tripod, the Laced9.
monians inscribed the names of the vari-
Gus Hellenic States which took part IN re.
pellng the barbaric invader. The golden
tripod perished long ago in the sacrilegious
plumber of Delphi by the Phocians but the
bronze serpent remained in Its original
position till it was removed by Constan-
tine the Great, to decorate, with other
spoils of Hellas, his new seat OF empire at
Byzantium. Here it has remained in the
Hippodrome till our own time, not un.
scathed, for the last Of the three heads of
the serpent has long since disappeared; but
the list of Greek states inscribed on the
intertwlned fields of the body remains per-
fectly legible to this day, having been for
tunately preserved from injury by the ac-
emulation of soil in the Hlppodrcme.
This earth concealed about two thirds OF
the serpent TIL the excavation made in the
HIppodrome in 1855, VIII the inscription
was first brought to light, AS the date of
the battle of Pla'ea was B. Z. 478. it may
be assumed that the setting up of the tri
pod took place shortly afterward. Thus
the inscription would not be later than b.
G. 476. Of hardly inferior interest is the
bronze helmet found at Olympia early In
this century, which. as its inscription tells
us, was part of trophy dedicated by
Hero l., of Syracuse, after his great naval
victory over the Tyrrhenians, B. &. 474.
If the German excavations now going on
at Olympia continue to yield results as
promising as the discoveries which have
distinguished the first months Of this en-.
terprise, we may hope that many similar
records of Hellenic triumphs may be found
in the rich soil Of the Altls.

office. Clarence is a young attorney
of more than ordinary ability, indus

young man, a we'll read lawyer, and
that he will be an acquisition that any
community may be proud of.
