ARTISTIC TOMB IN CARTHAGE.
An Interesting Discovery Recently
Made in the Ruins of the Anctent'


Pere Delattre, for 25 years engaged
in scientific research in Carthage,
where he has made many .eNcava-
tions, has just discovered singular
ly interesting tomb of white marble.
1t is extremely ancient and curl
Gus, and is marvelously preserved.
The sides are decorated with paint
ings. On the lid of the tomb is fash
ioned in bas-relief the figure of a
young woman, Tanit, the high priest,
ess and great protecting deity OF
Carthage. She is clothed in a plated
green tunic and is half enveloped by
two long vulture wings. On her head
is bird arranged as sort OF head
dress and in her hand she holds
dove. She wears great gold earrings
and a double gold necklace. Differ
ent parts of the dress are relieved
by very brilliant coloring. The eyes
are extraordinary in their animation
This treasure has been transported

FREEZING GERMS IN LIQUID AIR.

to produce antitoXin, the disease will
soon lose its terrors.
Upon the death of his grandson
from cholera infantum Rockefeller
donated 100000 to be used toward
finding a cure for that disease. Two
students discovered and isolated a
germ, and DIR. Simon FleXner manu-
factured therefrom an antitoNin
which counteracts it, 1t will come
into use as soon as the exact amount
for dose shall be determined. His
success has been the means of cle-
waiting DR.. FleXner to the position of
director in the $15,000,000 Rookie
feller Institute for Medical Research.
Prof. Behring, of Vienna, is also con-
spicuously gaining the attention of
the medical fraternity, first because
of his discovery of the diphtheria
aIAitoxin, which is yearly saving the
lives of thousands, and more recent
ly by his experiments with tubercu-
losis. The death rate from diphtheria
has been reduced to but to
per cent. from 80 to 30, by means
of antitoXin. DR.. Behring hopes to
reduce that of tuberculosis proper
tionately.

AN AID TO RELIGION.
Lord Kelvin, n Distinguished scholar,

rays ~
Lord Kelvin, the distinguished
scientist, in moving vote of thanks
to Prof. Henslow for his lecture be-
fore the University College Christian
association, demurred to the profess
sor's assertion th0t- with regard to
the origin of life, science neither af-
firmed nor denied the creative
power
On the contrary, he said, science
positively affirmed the creative pow
er. Science made everyone feel that
he was a miracle in himself. Mod
ern biologists were once more COM
ing to the firm acceptance of vital
principle. They had been absolutely
forced by science to admit and be-
lieve in directive power. In an in
fuence other than physical, dynam-
ical and electrical forces, there was
nothing between absolute scientific
belief in creative power and the
acceptance of the theory of the for
tuitous concourse of atoms.
"Was there" he asked, anything
so absurd as to believe that mum
Der of atoms falling together OF
their own accord could make crys-
tai, or sprig of moss the microbe OF
a living animal? Nobody could think
that anything like that even in mil
lions and millions of years could un'

in thought and criticisms, but with
freedom we are bound to come tc
