OLD ToMBsToNEs IN WALLS
Unearthed in Vienna Bearing An.
cient Jewish Inscriptions - To
Decorate Royal Library.

A most Interesting discovery has been
male in Jewish gravestones in the
foundations of the Hofburg. the en-
peror's Vienna residence.
Z Certain alterations have been made in
the great imperial kitchens, which are
below the chapel, and the gravestones
had been utilized in building the wallA
They are 81 in number, and, as far as it
has been possible to Judge from the He
brew inscriptions they bear, must be at
least 800 years old.
Some refer to women-for instance.
Zipora. the wife Of the Rabbi David.
Obviously part of the Hofburg must rest
on an ancient Jewish cemetery. The
stones will be set up In the imperial
library.

EARTH + J! IS HOLLOW. o. !.
STRANGE BELIEF OF FLORIDA
Z RELIGIOUS SECT.
Koreshan Unity Entertain Conviction
That We Live on Inside Of Globe
Will Incorporate New City,
~ Calling It Jerusalem.

The Koreshan Unity, q queer religious
sect, who believe that the earth is a
hollow globe, that we reside IN it, and
that the sky in some way is the shell OF
the globe, are taking steps to incorporate
the new city OF Jerusalem, which is to
be located on the banks of the beautiful
Este1o bay, in Lee county, Fla. which
they say will soon be famed as the
waters upon which, when the work is
completed, will arise one Of the greatest
cities of the continent.
The Koreshan Unity has posted legal
notices in the Estero post Office that 3
meeting of the citizens will be held for
the purpose of arranging to incorporate
city to contain II miles square terri
tory, and erect buildings, etc.
To give ample room for the 10000, 900
of population which they hope to gather
there in time, 1000 acres Of land in Lee
county have been taken in, running
down to Estero bay and back into the
wild lands for miles.
It is understood that the Koreshan
Unity will purchase all the lands of the
United Land company embraced in the
proposed corporate limits
The New Jerusalem is to be laid out,
on scale which will dwarf into insig-
nificance all plans of present large cit
les.
There will be great temples, from
which broad avenues will radiate In
every direction, and the picturesque Es-
tero bay and river will play an important
part in the future Of the new city.
!. The owners Of the groves of grape
fruit and oranges that are now planted
on Estero creek will find at their own
doors q market to utilize the crops
grown, and eventually New Jerusalem
is to become the leading seaport OF the
world.
DR.. Teed, the high priest Of the Kore-
shan unity at Estero, was In Jackson
vile, Fla. the other day on business con-
nected with Incorporating the new city.
In addition DR.. Teed has Just purchased
the fine tourist hotel on st. James
island. in Charlotte harbor. and his
plan is to make this huge Chautauqua
university, with hotel accommodations
at popular prices for thousands OF
guests. Each season he will present new
chautauqua features.
At Estero there is already a largo
ship p-buildlng plant, which is very pros
porous; a factory for the manufacture
of shawls and other manufacturing con-
Germs which employ great number OF
men.
The new colony is to run on the COOP
erative plan Each member is given a
certain piece of work to do, and he is
paid out of the treasury of the colony.
No member is to own more than the
other.

AGENTS OF THE CZAR
NORWAY AND SWEDEN OVER
RUN By RUSSIAN SPIES.
Press and Legislative Bodies Discuss
Grave Possibilities Which May
Result from Raids Of Dis
Ruised Moeoov1tes.

Though Russian spies for years have
overrun both Norway and Sweden, it
Is not likely that this fact - known to
the American public, as not even in
Europe do people In general seem to be
aware OF 1t. The matter he's, nevefthe-
less. been the subject Of debate in the
legislative body Of Norway and is now
eagerly discussed in the Swedish press.
In spite Of tho fact that the Russian
spies never took any particular pains
to play the character which they had
put on in order to conceal their identity
did any one up to the last few days sue
ceed in procuring convincing proofs
that any Of the suspected persons really
were agents OF the Russian government
sent out for the purpose Of furtively
acquiring Information which their gov
ernment knew it would not obtain in an
honest way.
Up to very recently the Russian spies
always used to play the part of an
itinerant mechanic. Now, however,
they have commenced to take advantage
Of the sympathy of the Norsemen for
the Armenians.
A correspondent of the Nidaros one
of the leading papers Of Trondhjem,
Norway, tells how two of these bogus
Armenians were caught red handed"
He writes under a recent date from
vesteraalen, ono of the counties on the
western coast OF the northern part of
Norway: p

'Armen3ans have Travelled In these parts

TO CHEAPEN ARMoR PLATE
Mtdvale Steel Company Chemists Dis
cover Method Which Will
. =: Reduce Cost, .c.~...

While it has long been the policy Of the
Midvale Steel company, of Philadelphia,
not to take the public into it's confidence,
it is known that the company now has
the control of q new process Of making
armor plate at cost very much below
that of the Harvey or Krupp method
used by the concerns now furnishing
plates to the government for warships.
The process is said to be the invention
Of two of the company's employees, who
have been at work on the problem for
Is years. It is asserted that under the
new method armor plate can be made at
a profit Of 500 q ton. while under con-
tracts now in force the plates cost the
government $500 q ton.
Two young chemists Of the Midvale
company, one named CAM and the 9TH
er Chase, took up the problem of max
ing steel about Is years ago. Each
worked In secret and neither knew the
other was SO engaged. CAM sought to
make steel that burglars could not drill
through. Chase wanted to make armor
plate that shells could not pierce.
To carry out the idea of each chemist
the same thing was snecessary-steel that
possessed the opposing qualities of
hardness and tenacity, the latter re-
Quiring softness.
CAM and Chase had worked for years
on the problem before either found out
what the other was doing. When they
did learn this thav Y>roso ntJv 1ocidod +o
combine and work together.
That the chemists have at length sue
ceeded Is now known. Their method
has not been made known, but they have
found way to cast steel that is hard
on the outer side and soft on the inner
side. 1t Is known that this b done by
the use Of certain sands. but the compo-
sft1on and tho proportions OF these
sands are held strict secret.
