For Ages-Tho Oldest Greek Poem.

In all the history Of excavation 10
such intensely human story has bn..n
dug out of the forgotten past as E.&
been brought to the light Of day by tie
recent work of the German Orient -
ciety of Berlin at the Pyramid oc
Abusir.
The report Of aIr2ast z year of en-
ploratiOn has just h-rl made. Ii is
couched in scientific, matter-of-f&, t
language. But in it is tn. whole drama
of life-a tremendous sermon preached

all-cOnQuering Death for the text.
The German professors found a great
king. So great was he that the great
gods, Sechmet, the Lion headed;
knubis, the Jackal-headed, and the
Nile gods are shown bowling before
him. Upper and Lower Egypt were
his. When he died men began to build
a vast temple of the dead for him.
-Four thousand five hundred years
ago they buried Ne Woser-re, the king
And the centuries passed and his tenn
pie, unfinished. disappeared below the
drifting sands. He and his family, his
royal favorite and his high priests, he
came hidden deep below the dwellings
of succeeding kings and priests, and
their tombs were piled over all. Then
they, too, sank away and were forgot

Greek and Christian in their turns. The
great clock of History still wanted a
thousand years to the time of the COM
ing of Christ, and Newoser-re, the
king, was so utterly lost and forgotten
that the poorest of the poor We're bur-
fed on top of the mounds that hid his
imperial tomb-that tomb which had
been set by it's mighty builders to defy
eternity itself.
And the German professors dug out q
song, too. It was deemed to be immor-
tai when written. So grand did it
seem 2,400 years ago that a singer in
Egypt had it put into his tomb with
him. 1t is a great roll of papyrus-a
poem by Timotheos clarifying the vic
torious fight of Marathon and almost
certainly the very oldest Greek book
ever found. The poem that made such
vast stir once has lain under the
Egyptian sands for more than 1900
years, and songs of Marathon have pill
ed on songs and been forgotten as the
dead piled on the dead over the tomb
of the Egyptian singer.
Professors Borchardt. VieltZ and
Decker conducted the work of excava-
ton. Their first discovery was the
forecourt of the Temple Of the Dead. 1t
had been left unfinished and most of
the beautiful columns that had been
completed had fallen. But two mag
nificent pillars were left. In that court
yard was found the partly broken fig
ure of lion, grandly proportional and
far beyond life size. It's sculpture is SO
fine that the scientists agree that It

The next discovery was that Of re-

In digging ont the chamber ri statues
the explorers unexpectedly came upon
splendid painting. 1t was intended to
show a door set into the solid wall The
c0lors laid on h. hands and brushes of
which there has been no yestige left on
earth for 1000 years were bright ard
glowing. shining out of their long kept
darkness into the light of to-day as if
they were still wet. But scarcely had
the sun streamed in before they began
to pale. Fortunately the expedition
numbered a skillful painter among its
members. and he succeeded in making
a true copy in full size of the ancient
work Of art.
Then the diggers reached the tomb of
the high priest len m-JachWet. At
ter breaking out the first stone the
Europeans pcered in and for the first
time in As centuries human eyes locked
upon the collins Of the priests of
Ne-worser-re The tomb had been too
small for the last cottins and the han
dies had been sawed from the ends he
fore the stones were sat in place aud
sealed. Those cuts of the saw we're
clear and sharp, just as they had been
left on that day OF burial.
Here great finds were made Large
ships of the dead were on the cotEins
that they might be used for the voyage
into the under world. There We're the
great stone jugs that had contained
water to refresh the shades on their
journey. The last gifts If friends and
carved wooden statUettes of the d0mcs-
tics and slaves were scattered through
the tomb.
Now came the question as tn whether
or not the mummies in the stone coffins
would be found in any sort Of nrescrVa-
ton. IF they were they would h" the
first mumraies of that period that ever
had been found in condition to bear re-
movai to Europe. The who'll party
gathered around eagerly while the
wooden nails were drawn carefully
from the coffin Of the high priest and
he was found in it lust as he had been
put to rest when Egypt was young.
Jen-em-Jachwet was wrapped in a
long brown linen shroud. A colorHd
mask of linen and gypsum lay on his
face The mask had narrow side

eye had been made larger by streaks

fungus, but the exact nature Of its
attack upon the glass is not describ-
ed. The glass appears to be perfor-
ated to such an extent that portions
OF the glass yield on the slightest
touch. Moreover, the transparency Of
tie glass has to a great extent disap-
leared--in short, the glass here and

Kind of chemical action has been es-
lablished, due, perhaps to the life and
habits of a specific fungus. Organ
isms are known, of course, which
assimilate silica. The gradual, but
sure crumbling Of the cement used in
water reservoirs has been traced to
the operation of countless tiny organ
isms. The action was at first regard
ed as being due to the solvent prop
erty OF carbonic acid and other sub
stances commonly present in water.
Under the action of the bacteria the
cement slowly resolved into soft mud.
The attack is made by the ubiquitous
nitrifying organism. which conducts

Find Old British Erioate.

The frigate Arson of the British
navy, which was lost in 1907, has been
discovered lying In four fathoms of
water OF Love Bar, Penance, Lands
End. Seven brass and several iron
guns were found on deck, and with
the exception of the top hamper the
ship Is intact The discovery was due
to some fishermen, who pointed out a
dark object under water to Captain
Anderson of the steamer Greencastle.
The Arson took part in Rodney's vic
tory over the French in 1882, off the
West Indies, destroyed ten Spanish
gun-boats and battery in 1906, and In
1907 was at the capture of the Island
OF Curacao, OFF Venezuela. The old
vessel is believed to have had a large
consignment OF doubloons ON board.
