FINDS AN ANCIENT LETTER.

In the Jewish Chronicle DR.. A. S.
Yahuda Of Berlin reviews the discov-
cry of 100 clay tablets written in an
cient Hebrew, dug up in Samaria. The
discovery was made by Prof. George
Andrew Reisner. OF it DR.. Yahuda
writes in part as follows:
1.-THE tablets show the same old
Hebrew writing in which the Moabite
stone and the Sloan inscription were
written; only the letters are not cut
into clay, but written in ink-in that
deep black Egyptian ink which has
preserved to us to this day, in excel
lent condition, writings from the
first and second millennium, B. c.. on
papyri and on clay tablets in Crete and
Egypt.
"a closer examination Of the tab
lets yielded an important result On
one of the tablets is reported to
have been found a letter from an AS
syrian king to King Ahab of Israel
AS to the name Of the Assyrian king,

the letter be really that Of an Assy-
rian king there can be no doubt that

Walla Walla where they are scheduled
