Accompanied by DR., Hunt. DR.. Gren,
fell found a rich Ptolemic metropolis
at Fl Hibeh. The bulk of the docu-
ments from the n mound consisted
Of q collection Of sayings of Jesus.
They are all introduced by the words
Jesus saith and for the most part
are new. The ends of the lines. unfor.
tunately, are often ~obliterated. AID
parently all the sayings were address
ed to st. Thomas. One or the most
remarkable is:
Let not him that seeketh cease
from his search until he finds, and
when he finds he shall wonder; won
dering, he shall reach the kingdom.
!. e.. the kingdom of heaven. and when
ne reaches the kingdom he shall
have rest
pr. Grenfell remarked that nor
nous interest would also be aroused
BY the discoveries on account Of the
variations they disclosed from accept.
ed texts.
One variant Of a mystical saying re.
corded In st. Luke. THE kingdom ~
God is within yon.. was Of great
value. as the saying in the papyrus ap-
peared in quite different surroundings
from those attributed to it by the
evangelist and extended far into an
region. According to DIR, Gren.
fell. these sayings formed the new
which is additionally associat.
ed with ST. Thomas.
An interesting variation Of the COS.
according to st. Luke, eleventh
chapter and fifty-second verse, Woe
unto you lawyers, for We have taken
away the key Of knowledge; We EN-.
Lered not in yourselves and them that

the papyrus, "Ye have hidden the
Key Of knowledge. We entered not

BIG FIRE IN WILMINGTON.
Fire on Monday evening destroyed the
large four-story market house in Eight
street Wilmington causing a loss of
$~looo,ooo, partly insured. The first floor
of the building was used as the market
house, tie second was occupied for offices
by the Dupont Powder Company and the
Bowe Carriage Company used the third
and fourth floors, the flames, originating
in the pant room of the carriage factory.
being caused, it is supposed, by spontan-
eous combustion. The carriage company
owned the building and are the heaviest
losers. Alfred I. Dupont had burned a
fine automobile, which he was having
repaired in the shop. The fire was yery
stubborn for a while, but the firemen
prevented the flames spreading to the
building of Thomas Green & Sons, adj
joining. Several firemen were slightly
injured by falling brick and electric wire.
The most remarkable thing in connec-
ton with the fire was the discovery on
Tuesday that the Office of the Dupont
Powder Company had escaped damage
better than any other portion of the
building, and that the loss of the com
pany will amount to almost nothing.
The floor of the Office portion of the
building appeared to hang like a shelf to
the walls, and on Tuedays the company
took out it's Office furniture and type
writer's. It was damaged, but not badly.
The only loss appeared to be two type
writer's, which had fallen into the flames.

Thomas Drum broke into the house OF

Miss Grace Davis, the Mayors daughter.
The criminal was arrested the next day,
was indicted the day following, tried on
the goth and sentenced to nineteen years
at hard labor in the State Prison-all
within the space of a week. The appli-
cation of such methods TO all cases of
atrocious assault would promote respect
for the law and would greatly decrease
the number of lynchings.-W. ]. Press.

An American monetary commission is
now touring Europe at government ex-
pense to see what the foreign countries
will do towards making a larger use of
silver in their money supply. This com-
mission is on another fools errand, to
hoodwink and hold many persons to the
gold standard under promise of interna-
tional bimetallism. Bimetallism will
eve be brought about by the consent of
European countries because it is not the
interest of foreign countries to do so.
The greatest silver mines in the world
are in America. Europe buys silver and
largely other food products. With a
gold standard foreigners can not only
buy American silver cheaper, but also
American food products. 1t is to the
interest of the American people to legis-
late in their own interest without. wait
ing for the aid or consent of any other
nation.

Sunday at the uniyersaIist Church.

Very interesting exercises were held
at the Universalist Church last Sum-
day. la the morning DR.. Booth gave
a sermon on the topic, "The True
Source of a Nations Greatness,
from the text, Blessed is the nation
whose God is the Lord; and the peo-
pile whom he hath chosen for his own
inheritance, Ps. 33: II. The sermon
was an exceptionally strong one, and
in it Mr.. Booth gave many an illus
tration showing how the true great
ness of all nations had lain in their
moral strength rather than in mental
wealth or strength of arms. He also
showed that the downfall of those
nations once great in the annals of
history, was largely due to lax NOR
ais which ended in loss of national
pride, a pride essential to nationa
unity, that band alone In which
there is strength. The singing was
excellent, and by a large chorus choir.
In the evening, at 7:30 o'clock, oc
cured the Annual Children's Day Con-
cert. This consisted of recitations,
dialogues and songs by members of
the Sunday School, and several selec
tions from the choir, all of which were
exceptionally well rendered. The
church was very tastefully decorated
for the occasion with potted plants
and cut flowers, which added much to
the pleasure and charm of the enter
tainment. The heconcerts at this church
are always good, and this one was
an exception to the rule.
