BARTHOLDI KNOCKED OUT.
Two Statues of Buddha Bigger
Than BarthOldi's.

The Statue of Liberty, just inaugu-
rated ct New York, is described a.
towering '.to the skies above all known
statues OF the present and the past.
and as the Great Eastern OF statues.
A much higher status exists, and ha
long existed in Afehaaistan. The litil,
knowledge which has been obtained o
the statue, or statues-for there ar,
more than one-has been hitherto con
fued generally TO a few Indian
psychologists; but We are now indebted
TO the Afghan Boundary Commission
and N re particularly 10 Captain the
Hon. ". g. Talbot. K E., of the Survey
Department. and Captain Maitland. OF
the Political Department-soE much
more complete information than we
nave yet received.
These statues are on the principal
road between Kabul and Balkh. at q
locality known as BamiaD. at that
place the road passes through valleys.
with Elgh scraped cliffs of eonglomer-
ate. Probably about the early centuries
o. the Christian era the Buddhists ex-
cavaled numerous caves. as monster
les for themselves, IN the rocks OF these
valleys. These ancient excavations
still exists, and can be counted by
thousands. -1.'E ti i.-4 .o.
In addition to these. a number OF
statutes of Buddha were cat out of the
solid rock. Two ct least, are still stand
ing, and the largest was measured by
Captain Talbot With the tbeOdOlite: so
that We now know the height to within
al least a few Inches. The measure
ment gave it as L73 feet high; that IS
rather more by a few inches than The
Nelson Column in Trafalgar Square,
and nearly &c feet higher than the New
York figure. This figure of Buddha
~ the real Great Eastern" OF statues.
The cebrated Memnon statues OF Egypt
would only come up TO the knee of this
mighty IkOR. At Bamain there Is an
other figure OF Bdddha 30 feet high.
These are erect standing figures. There
is also q sitting figure 80 feet high
= There are tie remains of other two
figures, bot they are in a ruinous con-
dition lone OF them is estimated 10 have

Pilgrim, Hiouen Thsang, passed the
spot in the first bali Of the seventh
century. A. D., ana from MIN We have
a description o. At Least she o largest
figures as they e1ls-el -. that date.
The statutes have Of course suffered
from time. Armies baye cfteo passed
by the road. Gensn'Z Khan and

THE SPHINX MysTERY.-A great effort
has at last been made to solve the enigma
which for ages has remained mystery to
man. 1t is the great Sphinx which is about
to reveal its secret and why it was erected.
A company OF explorers, under the direction
of Maspero, have been excavating for some
time back around the base of this colossus.
These excavations have disclosed temple
which is said to be the oldest in the world.
1t has no resemblance to any of the other
Egyptian temples. For few months the
marvellous Sphinx of Ghizeh will remain,
perhaps for the first time since the days OF
Moses, free from the earth in which it was
buried and we shall perhaps discover the
reason of its existence.

EVIDENCE AGAINST THE ANARCHISTS =
Tn the anarchist trial in Chicago yesterday

EVIDENCE AGAINST THE ANARCHIsTs =
In the anarchist trial in Chicago yesterday
morpiug officer n. F. Kruger testified that
he saw Fielder, one of the defendants, fire
two shots from revolver during the riot
on the night of May 4. After firing Fielder
hid behind the wagon from which he had
been addressing the crowd when the police
came up. Officer John Wersler testified
that Fieiden sought refuge behind the wag'
on and fred several times at the police.
Several other officers testified to the same
effect. LV. Moulton, Knight of Labor,
who presided at the meeting at which
Spies spoke, testified that in conversation
with him, Spies argued that force was the
only agency to secure the desired social re-
forms, and that there were men enough 10
Chicago in sympathy with the socialistlc
movement to take the city, and that when
CHICAGO was taken the rest of the country
would fall into line. George w. Shook
testified that Spies told him their secret or
panizstion numbered three thousand in
Chicago, and they proposed to revolution.
ize society in general-that it was entirely
nseless to attempt to better the laboring
classes by legislation. Spies used the word
Explosives" In connection with their mode
If warfare. James K. Magic testified that
at meeting on October II last, at which
Spies and Fielden were present, the former
proposed resolution, which was passed,
recommending the use of force and arms
instead of the ballot to redress the wrongs
of laboring men. Workmen were urged to
arm on the first of May to enforce the eight
hour law, and the speeches and resolutions
all referred to dynamite.
