To pardon a criminal because of the

universal would abolish justice and put

Someone has called 1.-THE Sign of the

familiarity has not bred contempt for
such a sermon the large audience at the
Metropolitan theater last evening teSti-
fed. number of times has the play
been produced in st. Paul, but 1t has not
lost its power of holding an audience
spellbound. Charles Dalton still plays
the part of Marcus Superbus. the Roman
project. It would be difficult to picture
anybody more successful in that role,
so perfectly does Mr.. Dalton fit it. His
fine physique, his splendid bearing and
his powerful voice, a voice that is capa-
BILE of expressing many things in simple
language, all aid him in making the char
acter of the Roman noble a commanding
one. Equally a necessary part of the
play has Miss Lille Tlhur,ow made her

ideal Christian maiden who, rather than
give up her faith, goes cheerfu'ly to the

was entirely Oriental. and even in tho
late times of coinings 1t was scarcely ever
used I'm Europe. But once having been
adopted by the leading commercial ma
lions, the systematized order became en-
forced in all the Mediterranean ports. Pro-
fessor Petrie concludes that the signs
and letters on the pottery of 2e0e to 500
u. c., which he uncovered were I'M
doubtedly used as an alphabet for written
communications OF spelled-out words in
the early stages. This forms a body OF
signs with more or less generally under
stood meanings. The change of attrfbut-
ing a single letter value to caoh, ana
only using signs for sounds to be bulh
into words Is apparently a relatively late
outcome of the systematizing due to
Phoenician commerce.

THE EARLIEST WRITINGS.
Prof. PetrIe's Recent Excavations
in Egypt.

in Egypt.
Washington, May 3,-Prof. Flinders
Petrie has recently announced a new rev.
elation from his latest Egyptian excava-
lions. This time he has thrown new light
upon alphabet, and makes the announce
ment that he has set back the earliest
use of letters by nearly 1000 years. The
discovery is of far-reaching importance
to the literary world, adding as it does
nearly twenty centuries more OF culture
to the ancient peoples than hitherto
dreamed of. Prof. Petrle has laid before
the Society of the Archaeological Insti-
tute of Great Britain an account OF his
discoveries, outlining the method OF pro-
cedure which led up to his making this
remarkable and historic find.
Some years ago Prof Petrie, while ex-
oavating in the period Of 400 to 200 y. G.
in Egypt, first noticed signs upon some
pottery which closely resembled those OF
the Greek alphabet. He at that time sug-
rested, as a superstition only, that they
we're an early stage of the alphabet. AS
the date accepted by the scientific world
as that of the earliest alphabetical writ
