OLD MANUSCRIPTS IN LEATHER.
They Are Remnants Of the Lone.Lost
Manlehean Literature.

In 1903 the Gelman government
sent an expedition under the lead OF
DR.. Alfred Grunwedel. one of tho
directors Of the Berlin Museum OF
Ethnology, to Turfan, in the extreme
east of Chinese Tprkestan, says \
writer in Harper's Magazine.
The great find al Turfan consists
of the enormous number of about 500
fragments Of manuscripts, more or
less extensive, written in an alphabet
which Is a modification of the Syriac
script that goes under the name OF
Estraggelo. The notifications Of this
alphabet are quite serious. Some of
the Syriac letters are wanting;
others are modified in FORM and there
are also some new letters.
These manuscripts are written for
the most part on paper but one Is on
silk end few are on white kid.
These last were found In old shoes,
being cut into the shape Of foot and
laid on the inner soles OF the shoes,
so as to strengthen the foundation,
They are all written carefully and dis.
tinctly, with calligraphic chapter inl.
tails, Each page, in the manner Of
modern books, has at the top a hRad.
ing, stating the contents OF the page,
in yellow, green, blue or red, Some
few contain miniatures Of exquisite
workmanship. The lines are in gen.
eral very short; this is a noticeable
popularity Of the entire collection.
The texts are throughout Of Mani
,hean origin; the 500 fragments are
remnants OF the long-lost Manichean
literature, Such as they are they con-
ain the sole remnants Of the Mani
chean Bible. Our knowledge Of Mani
and the Manicheans up to this time
was at second hand; reports Of orien'
tai writers and Christian church
