vices Of James Kelly, the elevator con-
duotor. When the elevator is to re-

For the past few days the attaches
Of the building have been denied ice
water. When Mr.. Clark was asked
about this matter, he said the guam
tity Of ice allowed the building for the
fiscal year, about four tons, had been
exhausted. Unless another allowance

next fiscal year will begin. Mr.. Clark
is Of the opinion that permission will
be Given to take ioe before that time.
Mr.. Clark vas at loss to explain

it to be due TO a shortage Of sppro-
priations.
II the elevator remains idle, people

GREAT FIND OF EXPLORERS.
Fragments of Gospel and Many Other
Ancient Writings.

Chicago, Nov. 30.-A cable dispatch
to the Tribune from London says: 1t
now is possible to give further details
of the remarkable find of papyri as a
result of the efforts of Drs. Grenfell
and Hunt, of the Greco Roman branch
OF the Egypt Exploration Fund at Oxy-
rhynchus. The find consists of no few
er than l30 boxes of papyri, ranging in
date from the second century, B. c., to
the sixth century, A. d. They COM
prise all classes of literature, many
fragments of the lost or e,sen unknown
classical works, and some most import
ant fragments unknown to Christian
literature.
The most important find is vellum
leaf containing As lines Of gospel which
has a variation from the authorized
version. The subject is the visit of
Jesus and his disciples to the temple Of
Jerusalem and their meeting there with
the Pharisee, who rebukes them for
their failure to perform the necessary
ceremonial of publication. In the dia-
logue which follows, which resembles
in some respects Matthew xxiii:25, the
Pharisee describes with considerable
fullness and detail the formalities he
has observed, whereupon Jesus delivers
an eloquent, crushing reply, contrast
ing outward with inward purity.
