LONDON, April Is. Tho Edinburgh
correspondent Of The Times says that in a
lecture delivered before the Edinburgh
Royal society Professor W. NJ. Flinders
Potrie, the distinguished Egyptologist,
declared that recent excavations made in

Christ Of a race quite distinct from tho
Egyptians.
This race was probably the peoplo who
ovorthrew Egyptian civilization at the
close Of the old kingdom. Who they were
ard whence they came were uncertain,
but the indications suggested that they
wore branch Of the same eastward mi
grafton Of Libyans which founded the
Amorite race In Syria.
The Times comments editorially on tho
Importance Of Professor Petrie's discovery

encouraging the excavators in Greece and
elsewhere.
