PAPYRuS MANUSCRIPT.
Oldest Copy extant oi Two Books in the Old
Testament.

LoNpo>, Eng, Sept, ia,--At the Inter
national Orientalist Congress in this city q
most interesting document was submitted
by Rev. Professor Heeh!er, chaplain of the
British Embassy at Vienna. distinguished
orientalist. IL is papyrus manuscript,
discovered few months ago in Egypt,
supposed by some to be the eldest copy
ex,ant of portions of the Old Testament
booksof Zachariah and Malachi,
These pages of papyrus when intact were
about 10 inches high and !, inches wide,
each containing ss lines of writing, both
sides of the sheet being used. The com
plete line contains from II TO Il letters,
The sheets are bound together in the form
of a book, in a primitive though careful
manner, with cord and strips of Old parch.
nlent. The Greek is written without inter
walls between the words, custom IN old
Greek and Hebrew manuscripts. The papy-
rus is in fair preservation and is believed to
date from the third of fourth century. II
thus ranks in age with the oldest 6reeS
manuscripts of the Septuagint version OF
the Oil Testament in London, Rome and
ST. Petersburg.
The differences in the papvrus tend Il
the conclusion that il was copied from
some excellent original of the Septuaginl
Bible first translated about PSI
b. C. for the use of the liellenistit
jews in Egypt. who, having graiu'
ally forgotten the Hebrew tongue. had
learned to speek Greek. 1t has several new
readings which surpass some of the other
Septuagiut texts in clearness of expression
and simplicity of grammer. IL would ap'
pear that 1t was copied and not written from
dictation. 4 second scribe has occasionally
corrected some mistakes of photography
made by the original copyist, distinguished
by the different color of the ink.
Professor llelcher said il was sincerely Ia
be hoped that this papyrus will soon bc
published in fac simile for the careful cS-
animation of Biblical scholars, and tha, il
is tie pressing duty of the British Govern
ment 10 institute an organized and scientific
search for papyri in Egypt. 1t is impo>si'
bic to forecast what surprises may be in
store or what treasures may be placed II,

TWO LEGISLATURES
Indiana Democrats Threaten II Their Gerry
mander is Destroyed.

INpi,N >roII,, Sept. l9.-The Democratic
leaders are thoroughly frightened at the
approaching end of the gerrymanjler. They
know it is doomed because it is iniquitous,
but they are making threats to defy the
supreme court If the decision is as all
expect.
In an address issued by the State central
committee the suit was referred to As a
Republican scheme. and the declaration
then continued.
How the supreme court of Indiana may
view this nefarious scheme is not known.
but, as the Democratic majority in this
State two wears ago was %, 600 we shall be
prepared promptly to meet any action which
the defeated minority may take, judicial or
otherwise.
The words are significant of the usual
willingness of the Democrats TO defy or
nullfy law courts or constitution. Their
threat, if carried out, will mean two legis-
atures. Chairman Taggart was asked if it
was true that the Democrats would ignore
the suit brought by the Republicans and
would vote for the men nominated under
the apporhoument of the last Legislature.
In reply he said
We will have the Legislature and will
elect the next United States Senator what
ever the outcome of the suit the Republi-
cans have brought. We will have the Leg
stature, YOU can depend on that
In speaking of the situation prominent
Democrat said, You " i'll make safe pre-
dction if Won say that there will be two
legislatures in session in indianapolis, or
