PROOF OF NEGRO ARTS.

ArchaeOlOgist Returns from Africa
with Specimens of Civilization.
DR.. D. r. MacIver has returned to
Philadelphia from Alexandria bringing
with him tidings that as the culmina-
ton of the University of Pennsylvania
archaeological expedition to Egypt he
his discovered absolute proof that CIV
ilization of high order existed among
the negro race for 700 years, says the
New York Herald.
Accompanying the curator Of the
Egyptian section of the department Of
archaeology of the university across the
ocean were five tons Of specimens I'M
earthed in Egypt and Ethiopia by his
expedition during the last six months.
These specimens, now awaiting clean
Ing, classifying and cataloguing, show
that the negro race of the period of the
decline Of the Roman empire understood
the fine arts and produced original
sculpture and architecture.
Never before have any works of art
executed by primitive negroes been dis
covered. EthnOlogists have united in
declaring that the black race was the
Only race in the world which never
produced a civilization Of its own. But
DR.. Randall MacIver says:
"Our excavations have shown that
the source of the civilization Of the
period which our work in lower Nubia
covered was Ethiopian. Our antiquities
cover every phase of this new school of
art. The sculptures are Of barbarian,
non-Egyptian type. showing distinctly
the African rather than the Ethiopian
or Mediterranean origin.
GAIL the negro works of art were dis
covered in an extensive cemetery lyi-g
about ten, feet under ground between
Wady Halfa and Assouan, in lower
Nubia. A large number of Inscriptions
were also found by the expedition and
have been brought back to Philadelphia.
at is hoped that the experts who will
take up the work of decipheri1g the In
scriptions at once will be able to COM
plete their task by next fall.
"We have about 100 Of these inscrip-
tions," said Dr. MacIver, (which are
written in the native Ethiopian lam
guage and in script of that period and
which we hope very soon will yield up
their secrets
1t is admitted by DR.. MacIver that
all of the works of the negro artists
show Egyptian, Greco-Roman, and in
a few instances Assyrian influences. in
cidentally proving the negroes of that
period to have been in trade communi.

The meteor trains studied by Prof
Trowbridge of Columbia University, are
the luminous streaks often seen in the
wake Of shooting stars, and they may
continue many minutes, or even an
hour or more. They drift slowly and
become distorted, as If by air currents
They seem to be self-luminous, and may
sometimes be seen In daytime. They
somewhat resemble the after-glow on
turning of the surrent from vacuum
tube electrodes. The glow Is greenish-
yellow, diffuses 100 yards a minute, and
is most striking at a pressure calcu-
lated to be that of the atmosphere at
height Of fifty-fve miles.
Recent study of the Hottentot
tribes In Southwestern Africa leads to
the interesting suggestion that. the
Bushman type Of negro once ranged
from Central and Western Europe,
across the Mediterranean, and down
the east coast Of Africa, to the lands
where these people are now found.
This is based upon the superficial re-
semblance in features between some Of
the Bushman and Hottentot types and
some of the peasant population Of parts
Of Central Europe, eastern France and
some parts Of Ireland. Sir H. H. John
ston remarks that the Bushman tribes
are scarcely in an age of stone, but
rather in an age Of bone, wood and
skins. Their arrow heads are usually
made of bone. Wood, leather, gourds
and thOrns are the materials from
which utensils and ornaments are COM
monty made.
Now that the season of thunder
storms is here, this long-debated sub
Ject assumes fresh interest. 1t has
been rediscussed by DR.. A. w. Borth-
wick, in '.Notes from the Royal Botanic
Garden Of Edinburgh" who concludes
that no tree is immune, and that light
ming will strike one species quite as
readily as another. In opposition to
the popular belief that "it is quite safe
to stand upder a beech. while the dam
ger under resinous tree or an oak il,
respectively, 10 or 80 times as great"
Doctor Borthwick says that the beech
is struck quite as frequently as any
other tree. Apparently the taller
trees In any neighborhood are the ones
most liable to be struck.
If the use Of the various means Of
communication Is to be considered az a
measure Of civilization, this country
certainly appears to an advantage when
compared with Europe. The last fg-
ures obtainable are for the year ending
January 1. 1905. OF letters and pos
tai cards, each 1000 persons sent g. ne,

LOSES PRESENCE OF MIND.

Guest, Though Forewarned, Puts
Hostess in q Predicament.
An amusing anecdote was told by 4
young matron the other day apropos Of
absent-minded persons. She had been
married only short time and was Civ
Ing luncheon to some of her mothers
friends. She was particularly anxious
to have everything go of well, that her
reputation as housekeeper might be
established. The little menu was made
out after mucn consultation with the
new French cook. She had trimmed
the table with her own hands and all
was in charming readiness, when at the
eleventh hour an old school friend ar
rived from out of town and asked If
she could stay for luncheon. 1t was
most inconvenient but the warm.
hearted bride welcomed her.
"Stay, by all means, dear Amy" sha
said. "But there Is one condition
Please do not take any chaudfroids
There was not enough chicken and the
cook has only just told me. These
y ACASA pCOpAC dAC CO CIOAOAlAOdAs Outs
after all, If you and both say No to
them, they are sure to go around
Don't forget dear"
Amy promised faithfully and went
upstairs to prepare for the party. The
guests arrived promptly and the lunch
con began with an excellent melon for
each. The hostess, having been warn
ed against too much food, especially as
there was to be bridge afterwards, had
cut out all the extras and limited her
dishes to the melons, cheese souffie
and the chaudfroids. The last she re.
fused when they came her way and
trembled at the small amount on the
dish. There was not even any extra
aspic jelly. but she reflected with re-
lief that there would be just enough
when Amy refused. Then, to her hor-
ror, she saw her absent minded friend
not only take one, but two, upon her
plate. The waitress had not sufficient
presence of mind to halve the remaind-
er, 80 two women went without any.
"And am sure" added the narrator,
in conclusion, "that they all went home
hungry. Why. blush even now when
I think of that luncheon. New York
Tribune.
