AKBAR'S EXPERIMENT.
Result of His Whimsical Search For
a Natural Language.

Result of His Whimsical Search For
Natural Language.
Akbar, one Of the first of the great
moguls who ruled India. has been
named the Asiatic Charlemagne. He
was a statesman and an educator and
built palace for the reception Of
men who loved learning and sought
after wisdom. The great mogurs pas
sion for knowledge is said to have
been shown by a whimsical experiment
he once made to determine if it was
true, as he had heard, that Hebrew
was the natural language of all who
had never been taught any other
tongue.
To test this assertion Akbar caused
a dozen nursing children to be shut up
in a castle six leagues from Agra, his
by a dumb nurse. The porter also was
mute, and he was forbidden, upon
pain of death, to open the gates Of the
castle. When the children We're twelve
years of age Akbar ordered them to be
brought before him.
Men learned in Sanskrit, in Arabic,
in Persian and in Hebrew We're assem-
bled at the royal palace to tell what
language the children spoke. Akbar,
seated on his throne and surrounded
by these linguists, ordered the children
to be brought in. Each child was adj
dressed, and, to the surprise Of the as
sembly, every one answered by sign.
Not child could speak word. They
had all learned from their nurses to
express themselves by gestures!

HERCULANEUM.
Its Destruction Came From a De1uge
of Lava Water.

Its Destruction came from u DeluSc
of Lava Water.
Herculaneum, in Italy, is one of those
ancient cities which have not Gnly been
buried, but actually forgotten, for
ages The town, supposed to be Of
Etruscan origin, lies on the Campanian
plain at the foot Of it's destroyer, We
suvius. almost midway between Ma
pies and Pompeii.
What caused the catastrophe OF the
year 70 A. D.? Biologists have come
to the help of the arrhaeologiSts. aid
it Is now held that the destruction Of
Hercu!aneum WAS somewhat different
from that Of pompeii. although Pom
peii was also covered and buried and
the general effects were the same In
both instances. In the case Of Pom
Peii the city was overwhelmed by the
shower of small stones from the vol
cano and the subsequent rain Of ashes,
but Herculaneum seems to have been
deluged with water lava" and far
fewer people were able to make their
escape from the city than from Pom
peii.
It is the theory that the steam from
the crater turned into rain, and, mixing
with the volcanic dust, formed a huge
volume Of muddy torrent. This gath
cred other soil as it poured over the
land, raised the level of the country
more than sixty-five feet and finally
left mass Of compacted tufa. This
torrent ran on to the sea, making it's
own channel and forming a kind Of
lagoon around the previously safe har
Dor which entirely prevented any ships
from approaching the place thereafter.
