LATE DISCOVERIES IN EGYPT.
beautiful Work Wrought Six Thou
sand Five Hundred Years Ago.

prot Flinders Petrie in the London Tmes.)
We are now able 10 trace out the regu-
lar development of the civilization during
some 400 years-from the time when writ
ing was but rarely used, and then only
III rude and pictorial stage, down TO
the common use of delicately figured hier-
OglyphS indistiuguishable from those used
for thousands of years after.
We have now III our hands the ttauu-
fully wrought jewelTy and gold work, the
minutely engraved worries, the toilet OBJ
jeCts, of Menes. thefounder of the mon
archy, and his successor, fashioned more
than $500 years ago
OF Menes and his predecessors there are
about thirty inscriptions and labels in
stone and ivory From these we learn
certainly the names Of three kingS-Nar-
mer, Ka, and a name written with hsh
Sign. Perhaps also Det and sam are
two other names, but they are more prob
ably word signs.
Among these works of Menes are parts
of four ebony tablets with figures and in
ScriptionS. one apparently showing hu-
man sacrifice. The strangest object is a
massive strip of gold Of unknown use
with the name of Menes (Ahd) uron it.
OF Ter. the successor of Menes, the as
tonishing find is the forearm Of his queen,
still in it's wrappingS, with four splendid
bracelets intact. One is a series of fig
ures of the royal hawk perched on the
tomb, thirteen figures in cast and chased
gold alternating with fourteen carved in
turquoise
The second bracelet is of spiral beads
of gold and lazul IN three groups Ihe
third bracelet is of four groups of hour
glass beads, amethyst between gold, with
connections of gold and turquoise. The
fourth has a centrepiece of gold copied
from the rosette seed of a plant with
amethyst and turquoise beads and bands
of braided gold wire.
This brilliant and exquisitely finished
group of iewelry shows what high level
was already attained at the beginning of
the First Dynasty. 1t is 2.o0O years older
than the jewelry of Dashur, the Oldest
yet known; and it has the great ad-
vantage of being carefully examined as
found and rostrung in it's exact arrange
mcnt.
The arm of the queen had been broken
of by the first of plunderers, and laid
in hole in the wall of the tomb There
it had remained neglected by the four
parties in ancient and modern times who
had successively cleared out the tomb.

the negro version of the origin of his
physical peculiarities. The story is only
a tradition handed down from generation
to generation and has no Importance
than other stories which are found among
the various races of mankind to account
for their origin. 1t ranks with the RO-
man story of Romulus and Remus, with
Adam and Eve of the Hebrews and of
similar attempts to explain origin.
1t would seem, however. if this negro
tradition can be considered seriously, that
a light color of the skin was an element
OF physical beauty which was desirable
and therefore perpetuated by selection.

A LEGEND or TIE RACE.

Il is a curious coincidence well worth
noting that the negroes Of the South have
a Iegand which, according TO Joel Chand-
Ter Harris, has been treasured for gen
crations among the negroes of Africa and
is still believed by the Southern darky
that in the beginning all men were black
AS the story goes, the negroes heard Of
a email lake whose waters had the pow
er Of changing the color OF the skin from
black TO white when coming in contact
with the skin. To this lake, therefore
an men repaired and those who were i'm
mersed in its waters Were turned white
and became the ancestors Of the white
races The last to reach the lake found
the waters all used up and dissipated
leaving only enough moisture TO wet the
palms Of the hands aud the soles of the
feet thus accounting for the light palms
and soies Of the negro Of today. This is
