ership of Captain Parker, an archaeo-
| logical expedition has left here for
| Jerusalem to continue the work of
the last two years on the site of the
| ancient Zion with the view of dis
covering the burial places of David
and Solomon.
Captain Parker, brother of Earl
Morley, was in command of the ex-
petition in which the Duchess of MARI
borough was said to be interested and
which got into disfavor recently with
the Turkish government and Moslem
authorities, who accused the excava-
tors of Decorating the sacred Mosque
of Omar. The second in command is
Clarence Wilson, and the party was
completed by the. addition of a num-
Der of English laborers
The expedition sailed on Wilson's
! yacht to Jaffa from which port it will
travel to Jerusalem On arrival there
the eXcavators will resume work in
the underground passages on Mount
Ophel. This mount is now a cabbage
garden which supplies Jerusalem with
vegetables, but in ancient times it was
supposed to be the site of the Bible
al Zion.
The work which will be directed
from the headquarters of the eXpedi-
ton at Ciloam, will be supervised by
Turkish government inspectors, spe-
cially selected by the imperial author
tiles at Constantinople.

= BERLIN, Oct. 5.-The North Ger
man Gazette, which beside being a
semiofficial organ, is also the mouth
piece of the German Naval League,
prints the full text of speech deliv-
cred the other day at Cassel by Grand
: Admiral Won Rooster. Although, in
general, it was an appeal to the Ger
man nation to support new speed
ing up of German naval construction
it contained several filings at Great
Britain which are particularly signi-
ficant, as the admiral is a close friend
of the Kaiser, besides being president
of the league Some passages from
his speech follow:
The action of England has panied
and embittered us. We are a peace
full, but a mighty and energetic people,
= and bear willingly a national service
Y in arms that will stand us in good
0 stead for our independence under any
circumstances, even when we have to
= assert that with the mailed fist. In
( that day, if it come, we shall still
L know how to deal out hearty blows as
n we did in the great wars, which,
d thanks to the brilliant deeds of our
e army, secured the federation of the
D German Empire
e 81 should like to ask the responsible
S statesmen, above all the Naval Sec
rotary, whether they will in face of
It the recent grave anxiety over the in
d dependence of our nation among the
2 great world Powers, rest content with
/ a shipbuilding program which, in my
d view, is not capable of assuring us
our position l should like to eXhort
the Reichstag, which once before, in
e a time Of crisis, answered unauthOr
IS lied foreign demands by passing the
IS Naval Budget without debate, now
a again, as one of it's last deeds, to in
k terpret the will of the German people
z. in accordance with this demand fol-
e the speeding up of our navy law. The
le great majority of the German people
Of will greet such action with Joy"
