Adventures for the
Hottest Relic of
Bible History

The mosque, like the ancient
temple, is built over the sacred
rock which is reputed to be the
place where Abraham prepared to
sacrifice Isaac. Here stood the
Ark Of the Covenant, here was the
altar of burnt offerings, the most
sacred spot Of the holy of holes
the centre of the universe.
The original Temple Of Solomon
was the most magnificent building
the world has ever known. 1t was
destroyed when the Jews were car
ried away into the Babylonian cap
tivity. When they returned to
Jerusalem they rebuilt the temple.
In 70 A. D. the Romans, under
the Emperor Titus, completely de-
stroyed Jerusalem and left nothing
of the temple except section Of
wall and a curious sub-structure
known as "Solomon's Stables" The
temple contained vast mass of
treasure, but the most sacred object
was the Ark of the Covenant,
which contained the tables of the
Ten Commandments, the pot Of
mama and Aaron's rod.
It is certain that the Romans car
ried away most of the treasure
from the temple, especially the OBJ
jects of solid gold. We know that
they took the famous seven
branched candlestick, because it is
represented in a carving at Rome.
But there is no reliable record Of
the disposition Of the Ark, although
there are many conflicting tradi
tons on the subject.
What more natural than to sup
pose that the Jews, in imminent
danger of defeat and massacre, hid
their most precious treasure in a
secret hiding place within the
sacred rock? 1t is known that
there is fight of eleven steps
leading down to a place within or
below the rock, but what lies at
the bottom has up to the present
been a mystery.
1t is now believed that Captain
Parker obtained possession of an
ancient Hebrew manuscript from
the library of the Mosque of St So
phia at Constantinople, giving a
clue to the position of secret
treasure chamber within the sacred
rock
After the Roman destruction Of
Jerusalem pagan temple arose on
the site of the temple. This was
succeeded by Christian church in
late Roman times. At last, when
the -Aohammedans gained complete
possession of the Holy Land, they
built the Mosque of Omar, one of
their most celebrated places Of

HE reported theft of the Ark Of
! the Covenant Is the most ro-
mantle and mysterious episode that
has ever occurred in connection
with archaeological research.
Though the affair Is involved In
much mystery, it is certain that a
British expedition, equipped with
immense resources, has suddenly
and secretly departed from Jerusa-
lem. bearing treasures Of vast Inn
portance.
The belief among the Mohamme-
dan population of Jerusalem and
the East generally Is that the adj
venturers have carried away the
Ark Of the Covenant, the most sac
red of al. ancient Hebrew posses
sions; the censor, the crown, ring
and sword of King Solomon and
various other priceless relics be-
longing to Solomon an David, and
the Oldest known manuscript of the
Bible. Rioting followed the affair,
and the Mohammedans are terribly
enraged over it.
The expedition was headed by
Captain the Hon. Montague Parker,
of the First Life Guards, British
Army, brother Of the Earl of Nor
ley, assisted by Lieutenant Robin
Duff. of the Second Life Guards, a
relative of the King, and other men
of great influence and high social
position in England. They had
fund of 100000 to enable them to
carry on work, and the chief engi-
neer of~the London Underground
Railroads assisted them. The
Armours, of Chicago. are said to be
interested in the enterprise.
A curious and charming aspect
of the affair is that Captain Parker,
who is very prominent in English
society, was mentioned as one OF
the many suitors Of the beautiful
and divorced Mrs. Ava Willing As
tor. 1t is even said that after the
Captain had been particularly at
tentive, the famous beauty said:
well, bring back the Ark of the
Covenant and ] will-talk to you
again"
work with tremendous energy. He
obtained a concession from the
Turkish Government to carry on
excavations In a certain region out
side Jerusalem. This region con-
sists principally of the billy tongue
of land called Ophel. 1t lies south
of the ancient site of the Temple
of Solomon, now occupied by the
Mosque of Omar, one of the most
sacred edifices in the Mohammedan
world.

They discovered two branch tun-

archaeological authorities that tne
extraordinary windings OF thls an-
Gent water tunnel were necessary
in order to avoid the tomps OF
David and Solomon and the
Kings of Judah, who were ALREADY
buried here. It is believed that
the English explorers had special
information on this point ana
especially that they had clue TO
the graves Of David and Solomon,
which must have contained ricn
treasures.
The Englishmen conducted their
work W. b extraordinary secrecy.
All inquirers were kept away with
great care. Turkish soldiers. paid
literally by the excavators, were
furnished as guards. 1t was OBJ

shafts, one above and one below
