BABYLONIAN EXPLORATIONS.
Discovery of Great Temple Library of
City of Nippur.

Discovery Of Great Temple Library of
City of Nippur.
Prof. Hilprecht of the University of
Pennsylvania, the Babylonian explor-
eT, has discovered the Great Temple
library OF the ancient city of Nippur,
which was destroyed by the Elumnites
in the year 22S B. c. For eleven years
the professor has been exploring the
mounds of ancient Nippur, the city
that antedated Babylon by centuries as
the capital Of Babylonia. Within the
past year he has found among those
prehistoric ruins the library of the
Temple Of Nippur. This is the first
Rabylonian temple. library that has
ever been discovered, and it contains
the oldest and most important records
of the earliest civilization of which
even an echo has come down to our
own age. Already $4,000 volumes
have been taken from the ruins, and it
is expected that many more thousands
will be recovered. Inscribed on clay
tablets in the cuneiform characters
which the explorations of Nineveh and
Egypt have made familiar to archaeo-
logical students, these literary works
of men who lived 5000 years before
the Christian era began include die
.t1onaries, architectural plans, histori-
cal and chronological data, legal and
commercial as well as religious liter
allure, that bear witness to the form
and pressure of time" in which Abra-
ham lived. They also show, says Prof.
Hilprecht, that ages before the reputed
appearance Of Adam man was not only
existing but that developed a high
state of civilization, comparable in all
it's essential points with that which We
ourselves possess.

Church Yards in Bad Condition.

Many of the church yards in the
Highlands are reported to be in a
shocking condition. There has been
a scandal in North Harris, where the
sanitary authorities have had to step
in and prevent the people from bury
ing any more bodies in small piece
of ground, while the churchyard at
Moraig, another small Highland place,
is SO full that it is described as sim
ply mounds of human beings. The
Highlanders have a great liking for
laying their lost ones with those who
have gone before and this accounts
greatly for the oVer-croWding This, OF
course, applies only to the old paro-
schiaI cemeteries, as the newer ones are
under government control, which stops

Augustus Nash of Cleveland declared
that the International Committee should
discover fresh methods of evangelzation
to replace WORKOUT methods and aid local
Associations in applying them, rather
than to employ itself large number of
men to do the work. A. II. Whitford of
Buffalo, urged the claims to the utter
most parts of the earth. Secretary Good

scented encouraging figures touching the
growth of Bible classes. Then a brisk
general discussion followed ranging
around these three branches of religious
work and coupled with a running fire
of questions and answers regarding
methods. Then l. W. Messer of Chi

afternoon dwelling upon the distinctively
