Traditions Which Have Almost the
Force of Statutes

walked eoolly in front Of the line and shot in
the presence Of his men,
The law OF the right Of revolution has been
much talked about and much written about. Every
intelligent citizen believes that he has the right
under certain conditions to oppose the established
government Of his own land and Join In an EFFORT
to establish another in its place. Just prior to
and during the Civil war there was much discus
sion in this country by learned men on either
side Of the right Of revolution and the higher
power and the greater law"
The law iustifying one person in the killing Of
another has required the serious consideration Of
every country. Every criminal code provides GER
tain punishments for homicide. and many of them
graduate the punishment with minute particular
ity, according to the circumstances Of the killing
so that any one Of six crimes may be involved in
single tragedy. Such codes also attempt to de-
fne what killing Ii iustihable and what Is ex-
cusable and with their Interpretation by the
courts attempt to describe the only conditions I'm
der which one human being can kill another
The Hebrew code almost stands alone IN re-

UNWRITTEN LAWS


There Is class of unwritten law which does
not and cannot become written law. says Case
and Comment, because 1t approaches so near the
danger line that man dare not recognize 1t to the
extent Of publishing It and declaring It as part
Of the positive Law.
II IL the unwritten law Of the sea that cap
tain must 60 down with his ship. Men dare not
write It into the contract, and nations dare not
incorporate 1t In their navy or marine regulations
yet the tyrants Of the sea know the law. and be
lieve that to obey 1t betters their service. and
there are few instances OF its being disregarded.
It is the unwritten law Of the army and navy
that an oficer shall not seek cover. or at least
shall not show apprehension of danger to his per
son. in time of battle and in the presence OF en-
listed men or common sailors. In the Franco
Prussian war nearly four thousand officers Of the
German army were killed and the great majority
Of them gave up their lives because they believed

Not only are there such outward evidences OF
Egypt's wealth. From the burials come the very
objects with which the people were wont to sur
round themselves. The tombs Of the kings have
given us the grave Of Ioua and TiOua with its

Not only are actual remains to be sought, but
also important historical artistic questions
to be solved Indeed, the Egyptian Exploration
Fund was the FIRST to employ this method OF
clearing old monuments and Of showing the world
what they were.
Such stupendous undertakings call for equip
ment on considerable scale. BY the courtesy
Of Sir CASTOR Maspero, the government has
loaned to the Fund light railway with equip
ment Work must be rapid December to
April marks the working year. Every moment
Is precious. Every car load must count Every

ket brigade is sometimes pressed into use As
soon as some apparently valuable piece OF To-
Gated workmen are called OF. experts are sent
in, every man is on guard; carefully every inch
OF soil is watched as the last few baskets of
earth are removed. Every fragment must be
saved and laid away until everything has been
recovered. Think Of the disappointment when

America has joined hands with the old world

There is need Of haste To extend the arabic
district of Egypt is an economic necessity. Ac-
cordingly, the British government has erected at
Assuan great dam, whose 95-foot head has sent
