PEABODY TRUST ENDS
5000, 900 Should be North
Cardinals Share.
Resolutions 10 be Introduced in the Legislature
by Judge A. W. Graham, Chairman of
Committee on Education.

The Peabody Trust is to be closed and
the principal fund distributed The fund
now amounts to S2,1OO.OOO. This large
sum may be distributed among the South
ern States for public education, or it may
be concentrated in one State to establish
the former case North Carolina would
receive about 100000 In the latter case,
nothing.
1t is rumored that the proposed college
would be established in Georgia or Ten
Aessee.7 Experienced educators believe
il would be a mistake to concentrate the
fund, or any large portion of it, in any
State. Mr.. Peabody evidently intended
that the fund should not be concentrated.
but should be distributed In his first
Glitter creating the trust and donating a
million dollars said it was for the pro-
motion and encouragement of intellect
ual. moral, or industrial education among
the young of the more destitute portions
of the Southern and Southwestern
States Also that: THE benefits shall
be distributed among the entire popula-
tion. In his second letter giving another
million, he said "It is my desire that
when the trust is colsed and the final
distribution made by yourselves or your
successors, all the fourteen Southern
States, including Maryland, Kentucky,
Missouri and Texas. shall share in that
distribution according to the needs"
1t is understood that Judge A. w. Gra-
ham, Chairman of the Committee on Ed
ucation. wall introduce a resolution in
the House concerning this matter with
the purpose of securing for North Caro-
lima her just share of this fund amounting
to about 100000 Judge Grahams' fa-
ther, the Hon. VIM. A. Graham. was a
member of the original board of trustees
of the Peabody fund, selected and ap-
pointed by Mr.. Peabody himself.

One of these an old castle, was in suffi-
Gent preservation to allow whole party
OF mining experts to live in it after clear
ing it out, and they actually inhabit it
at the present moment.
This castle, called Darehieb (Dare
beautiful. and HEB. convent), is situated
on the Wadi Allago, and has been the
depot for all the ancient gold workings
OF the Allagi gold mines. There are two
old castles built of solid slate, three sto-
ries high, most strongly built, with port
cullis and handsome entrance. The re-
mains of very considerable town sur

fortress to guard the old treasure won
from the adjacent mine, and was after
ward used as a convent by a sect of
Christian monks There are now extant
similar monasteries in the desert that
have been inhabited since the early Chris
tan era. The inhabitants of the Wadi
Allagi are the Bishereen tribe of Arabs.

and followers of Osman Digna. A num-

been discovered, which all help to support
the superstition, and, with the addition
of Biblical and classical references, make
very strong case.
The country is now being thoroughly
examined by explorers, Egyptologists and
mining experts, who are daily bringing to
light fresh evidences of the original
wealth of the country. Indeed, the word
original might well be omitted, for suf.
ficient gold has already been won to indf-
cate that the old mines are far from
worked out. Modern appliances enable us
to proceed where the ancents had to
abandon their work for fear of the mines
subsiding,
worked for 1000 years, for an ancient
Arabian historian-el Macrizi-tells us
that the Arabian chief Omary was forced
by the Egyptians to abandon working the
mines of Darehieb (Wadi AllagD over
1000 years ago, and, from all evidences,
that is probably the last time they were
worked. The Wadi Allagi was apparently
the center of these extensive mining OPP
erations, and the old ruins of large
CITY, named Darehieb. are there. 1t is
situated between two ranges of hills, and
in these hills the old ancients burrowed
for gold. The ruins of Darehieb are most
interesting. The buildings were comprised
of slate and. stone slabs of irregular
shapes securely cemented together by the
liberal use of mortar, and there are still
several buildings which have not altogeth-
er fallen to pieces, although they were
probably built 1000 or 5000 years ago..

Biblical authorities, geographers and
many others have taken a keen interest
in locating, or attempting to locate, the
Ophir of the Bible. and as during the past
three years the existence of an extensive
and rich mineral field has been discovered
in Egypt, situated in that belt of coun-
try lying between the River Nile and the
Red sea, and between the goth and 28th
parallels of latitude. some particulars re-
lating to the prehistoric and present work
ing of this region may be interesting, to-
gether with a suggestion that this miner
al belt-which is particularly rich in gold
and precious stones-is the much-sought
and oft-located Ophir." So writes a well
known Psychologist in a recently publish
ed pamphlet on the subject of mining in
Egypt. Conclusive evidence is now exist
ing proving that extensive gold and gem
mining operations were carried on in this
district, of Egypt at different periods of
the earth's history, and that a vast
population were so supported.
1t is impossible to affirm that this is
the real Ophir, whence the queen of Sheba

FIND UNKNOWN
SAYINGS OF CHRIST
ArchaeoIogists Make an Impor-
tant Discovery of Papyri
in Egypt.

LONDON, Nov. 14.-Many hitherto
unknown sayings of Jesus Christ have
been discovered in Egypt by archaeolo-
g1sts, who have dug up papyri buried
since the second century, 100 miles
south of Cairo. DR.. Bernard P. Gren-
fell, who has been engaged in Egyptian
excavations since 1894, at the general
meeting of the Egypt Exploration Fund
here yesterday, gave the following de-
tails:
Accompanied by DR.. Hunt, DR.. Gren-
fell found an arch of the Ptolemic ne
cropolis at El-Hibeh. The bulk of the
documents from one mount consisted
of collection of sayings of Jesus. They
are all introduced with the words
Jesus SAITH and for the most part are
new. The ends of the lines, unfortu-
nately, are often obliterated. Appar-
emily all the sayings were addressed to
st. Thomas. One of the most remark
able is:
Let not him that seeketh cease from
his search until he find, and when he
finds he shall wonder; wondering he
shall reach the kingdom, 1. e., the king
dom of heaven, and when he reaches
the kingdom he shall have rest"
DR.. Grenfell remarked that enormous
interest would be aroused by the dis
coveries on account of the variations
they disclosed from accepted texts. One
variant of the mystical saying, record
ed in st. Luke, THE kingdom of God is
within you," was of great value, as
the saying in the papyrus appeared in
quite different surroundings from those
attributed to it by the evangelist and
extended far into another region.
According to DR.. Grenfell, these say
ings formed the new gospel which is
additionally associated with st. Thom-
as. An interesting variation of the
Gospel according to st. Luke, eleventh
chapter and fifty second verse: Woe
unto you, lawyers. For we have taken
away the key Of knowledge; We entered
not in yourselves, and them that were
entering in We hindered," reads in the
papyrus: Eye have hidden the key of
knowledge; We entered not yourselves,
and to them that were entering In We
did not open"
Another fragment contained a dis
course of Christ, closely related to pas
sages of the Sermon on the Mount, and
conversation between Christ and His
disciples, in which Christ answers
question as to when His kingdom
would be realized, saying: when We
return to the state Of innocence which
existed before the fall"
A valuable find was made in papyri,
written in Latin, giving the text of the
Epistle of the Hebrews, and as an epit-
ONE of Livy's six lost books. This,
with other papyri, covering the period
150-137 B. c., threw much news and val
liable information on the history of the
world and marked the recovery of hith-
erto lost classical literature of Egypt.
A quaint instance of the business
methods in vogue in137 A. D. is shown
in the discovery Of an amusing con-
tract whereby a slave boy was to be
taught shorthand for 120 drachmae.
The payment was arranged on thor
oughly businesslike basis, 40 drachma
down, 40 on satisfactory evidence of
progress and 40 on the attainment of
proficiency.

NEXT ROYAL VISIT.
King and Queen of Italy viii Be Made
to Feel "To Hum" in ENGLAND.

LONDON, Nov. liking Victor En-
manuel and Queen Helena of Italy,
who are to arrive in England Nov. II,
will be received with ceremony un-
usual even in the case of crowned
heads. At Portsmouth all the home
fleet will be assembled and great
naval demonstration will take place
upon their majesties' arrival. The
Prince and Princess Of Wales will meet
them on board the royal yacht, and
will accompany the Italian king and
queen to Windsor, where King Edward
and Queen Alexandra will greet them
at the railroad station. At Windsor
castle special apartments, last occu-
pied by Emperor William in 1899, have
been prepared for the use Of King
Victor Emmanuel and Queen Helena.
State banquets and shooting in Wind
sor forest will compose the daily pro-
pramme for. the entertainment Of the
visitors, except Nov. 10, when they will
visit London and pass in procession
through the streets to Guild hall,
where the lord mayor will give a lunch
con in their honor. Many cabinet min
listers and other prominent persons will
be present. Besides a large escort Of
British troops, the king and queen of
Italy, in their progress through the
metropolis, will be attended by guard
of honor of Garibaldian veterans, resi-
dent in London. The royal visitors will
leave England Nov. 81.
If any influence is likely to be ex-
erted by the visit on European rela-
lions, it is said that it will be adverse to
Russia, as it is understood here that
King Victor Emmanuel is very bitter
against the car for canceling his visit
to Rome.
