texts brought from Babylonia. AS to
the identity of the supposed Temple
library" at Nippur, he said, when in
terviewed on the subject:
you ask if there was a Temple Ii.
brary at Nippur? Most assuredly
there was. Nearly 20 years ago DR..
Peters found tablets in the mounds at
Nippur, which he designated as relics
of library. We have at the museum
many religious texts of the early
period in Babylonian history. But
these are exactly what you would ex-
pect to find, for every Babylonian city
had it's temple and cultus, and in con-
nection with them schools for scribes.
This subject. I believe, l have already
treated sufficiently in my book, New
Light on the Old Testament from
Babel
THE advanced state of the systems
of law in those old cities, for instance,
was remarkable. The now famous
code of Hammurabi is based upon
presidents, proving the existence of
systems of law long prior to his time
There may also have been codes even
earlier than his. There must surely
have been in the time of Abraham ex-
tensive legal libraries. Think also of
the wonderful Babylonian system of
writing! We know that the Chinese
have from 10000 to 100000 values for
their written signs. One scholar has
already collected about $4,000 values
for the Babylonian written signs, and
another list is being compiled, which
will, in all probability, contain as
many more. Given these premises,
it stands to reason that there must
have been immense collections of
documents and books in all the Baby
lonian cities. Some of the books must
have consisted of thousand tablets
each. OF course, there were vast
stOrehouses or libraries to hold them

Harry Kendall Thaw went
to the court room today. TO
face the most terrible ordeal
of his life, cheered by the news that
his mother, Mrs. VIM. Thaw. would ar
rive from Pittsburg during the session
to aid and sustain him. This he hopes
will turn the battle to save him from
the electric chair for the murder of
Stanford White.
Mrs. Thaw has been very i'll, but
has been anxious 60 come to the trial
Despite her critical condition she is
expected to take the stand
Thaw was practically deserted on
the first day of testimony by the de-
Tense. Martin w. Littleton. his chief
counsel, ruthlessly tore the veil from
the family skeleton to prove heredi-
tary insanity. Not woman relative
was there to support the prisoner.
| How keenly the Thaws feel on the
subject OF insanity in their family was
made evident by the evidence of Mrs.
Geo. l.. Carnegie, the defendants sis
ter. She had sat In the court room
every day since the second trial be-
gan and her face flushed as she lis
/ tened TO the opening speech OF Martin
w. Littleton on Monday. Evelyn
Thaw had been shut out of the court
room. when the taking OF testimony
began. as she is to be a witness for
the defense.

exception OF Evelyn Thaw, 10 be In

in the two lines he has sold out and

business for the other firms dealing in
those lines, Messrs Christensen and

once as noted in the advertisement
elsewhere and leave that field to the
other dealers who are indirectly in
terested in the deal, Here's to the best
