Lost Historic Treasures.
From Flinders Petrie's Archaeology.

From F1inders-Petrfe's Archaeology.
Every year sees wiped out the remains
which have lasted for thousands OF years
past. Now, In our own day. the antiquities
of South Africa and Of Central and South
America have been destroyed as rapidly as
they can be found Elsewhere engineers OF
every nation use up buildings as quarries or
wreck them for the sake of temporary
profit. Spectators, native and European.
tear to pieces every tomb they can md IN
the east and sell the few SNOWY proceeds
that have thus lost their meaning and MS
tory. And the casual discoveries that are
made perish in a CHASTITY manner. The
Saxon regalia of Harold. the treasures OF
Thomas a Becket's shrine the burial OF Al
fred, the burial Of Theodore and the sum-
mer palace of Picking have within modern
memory all gone the same way as the
wonders that persisted In the French sack
of Rome or the Greek sack.of Persia.

Of Local Interest.

The following commandments we
clip to show what spirit should be
observed, especially in the city. They
may not all be new, but they certain
ly have weight in pushing to towns
interest:
Thou shalt not go away from
town to do thy trading. nor thy son.
nor thy daughter.
o-Thou shalt do whatsoever lieth in
thy power to promote and encourage
the welfare of thine own town and
thine own people,
5-Thou shalt spend thy earnings
at home: that they may return from
whence they came and give nourish-
ment to such as come after tllee
4-Thou shalt patronize thy home
merchants and thy home paper. for
yea, verify, doth not thy home paper
spread over the land tidings OF thy
goodness and greatness that the peo-
pie shall patronize thee.
5-Thou shall not ask a printer to
take less than his price Remember
that by asking him to retreat from his
price thou interest that he is robber.
II he hath no dignity thou wilt get
done by him somehow.
6-Thou shalt not ask credit, as
goods cost money, and The merchants
brain is burdened with bills. His
children clamor for bread, and his
wife abideth at home for lack Of such
rainent as adorneth her sister.
Blessed yea, thrice blessed is the
man who pays cash.
Thou shalt not suffer the voices
of pride to overcome thee and if other
towns entice thee, consent not, thou
mayest be deceived. Remember the
fate of a calf that it's mother and
followed steer away from home and
lost it's supper.
9-Thou shalt not ask for reduced
prices for thine Influence" for guile
is in thine heart and the merchant
readeth it like an open book. He
laugheth to scorn and shouteth to

will do for less money. The other
printer may steal his stock and un-
derpay his help. Ii you trade with
him thou art an accessory to his

RUSSIA MAKES CONCESSION.
Gives in to United States on Matter
Of Contraband.

St. Petersburg. Sept. 2o-1he
Russian answer to the American
notes in regard to contraband Of war
as specifically raised in the cases Of
the British steamer Calchas and the
Portland .Asiatic Line steamer Ara
bia, the former while bound from
Pnget Sound port to Japan, has been
delivered. 1t follows generally the
lines of the reply of Great Britain.
On the broad question involved Rus
sia recognizes the principle of the
immunity of innocent trade with
Japanese ports, but she holds to her
right to stop contraband destined for
the use of the Japanese military or
naval forces. The United States
are informed that instructions en-
bodying the decision Of the commis-
sion. presided over by Prof. De Mar
tens. have been issued in the form Of
instructions to the naval comman-
ders and Prize Courts. to govern
them in the future, the instructions
recognizing the dual uses and there
fore, the conditionally character Of
the articles Of foodstuffs, rice etc.,
enumerated in Section 10 Of Article
6, of the Russian regulations, with
the exception of horses and other
beasts Of burden Russia will not
undertake at this stage to interfere
with the cases OF the steamships
Arabia and Calchas. of which the
courts have already taken jurisdic-
ton, and in which the Vladivostok
court found the facts. but, upon ap-
peal to the Admiralty court will ap-
ply its Interpretation Of Section 10,
which practically amounts to an as
surance that the -four, ETC., seized,
will then be released. 1t is inprob-
able, however, that all the articles
coshscated by the Lower court will
be released. AS far as the Associat-
ed Press can learns, the commission
er's decision, as embodied in the in
struction, does not go beyond the
articles enumerated in Section 10,
from which it is inferred, coal, rail-
road material, machinery and boilers
for ships and even cotton are enun-
Grated along with munitions of war,
etc., in other articles which remain
in the category OF absolute contra
band. 1t is understood, however,
that private assurances have been
given the United States that the
American government will be salts
fed with the manner in which the
contraband rules will be interpreted
hereafter.
