AN OLD CITY ExCAVATED

Prof Ernest Sellin, the Austrian
Psychologist, reports that he has found
in the lower Jordan plain near the road
between Jerusalem and Jericho, re-
mains Of a palace which he believes is
one Of those built by Herod the Great.
The building, asserts Sellin, might
easily be reconstructed after the orig
inal palace. The expedition financed by
Jacob H. Schiff of New York has now
brought to light many remarkable
ruins in Palestine, of which the Sellin
find" is not the least.
The remains of Israers ancient capt.
tai are to be found, for the most part,
on a huge isolated hill, $50 feet in
height. six miles northwest of Nablus,
otherwise known as Shechem, and
about twenty miles from the Mediter-
ranean Sea. The mount is covered
with orchards of olives, figs and pome
granates.
The first that is known of this hill in
history is when it was bought, about
800 Il. c., by Omri, who built a town
called Shomeron, afterwards known is
Samaria There Ahab, the son of Omri,
built a temple to Baal. and also an
ivory palace. In the ivory palace he
ruled the northern kingdom down to
1872 3. Gas see the accounts in the
Book of Kings in the Old Testament
When Sargon captured Shomeron
(Samaria) he took away $4,000 people
into captivity. The population he left
in the city was put under the reign of
an Assyrian governor, and the city was
colonized by Sargon and Esarhaddon
with Babylonians in place of the eXiled
Israelites. The next conqueror of Sa-
maria was Alexander the Great. The
ha tod o1a ON
down to the time of Herod. He rebuilt
and improved" the city and named it
Sebaste. This was just before the birth
of Christ
Herod had passion for building
cities. and he literally dotted the land
scape of his time with temples and
palaces. He was VIGOROUSLY cruel and
was poor pay. He made everybody
work for him for nothing.
Mr.. Schifs excavators report that
they have found most of the palaces OF
the Israelite kings who dwelt in Sa-
maria. including the ivory palace" OF
Ahab. Tablets We're discovered in the
last named, giving names of persons
and places in some new cipherS for
numerals. and a few such expressions
as "old wine" and clarified OIL" OF
which the tablets would indicate King
Ahab had abundant supply in his
cellars.
Also there was dug up royal notice
offerings sent TO Ahab from Egypt. and
clay tablet letter to Ahab from &
king of Assyria, possibly Assur-nasir-
pal. known in history as the "Assyriar
Colossus" The Identification of the let.

calling for a division of Levy and Ma
rion counties-the proposed new coun-

Marion county citizens who do not
want this bill TO pass had best bestir
themselves. This paper has heard
statements going the rounds that the
bill is likely to pass on account Of
swaps and trades made to pass other
measures and that representatives in
other counties would use this measure

This Woman and This Mar.

This Woman and This Man were al
most alone at the Fargo theatre last
night. The weather was inclement
No one seemed to know much about
the play and few appeared to have
much curiosity. 1t was the banner
small house of the season and for
awhile 1t was a question whether hte
curtain would move. The management
was game, however, and the show
was on.
The subject of the play is rather un-
'pleasant-though its moral sticks out
like the end of a frostbitten pro-
boscis.
Lack Of audience and the entire alb
sence of anything to inspire and en-
thuse the actors probably accounted
for the dragging production. Minnie
Victorson, the leading woman, gave
evidence Of ability in one or two in
stances, but could not be charged with
taking much interest ir the proceed
ings. w. w. Blair, as Norris Town
send made good. Elizabeth Coulter, a
full grown woman. had hard time re-
ducing her size to fit that of a 6-year-
old boy, but did her best-and that's
all the angels can do.

CHIEF JUSTICES.

How many citizens can name Mr..
Whites predecessors as chief justice of
the United States supreme court?
They are, Of course. far fewer than
the presidents-but after the average
man has named Marshall he jumps
down to Fuller and stops. Even law
yers are unable to supply the fun list,
at least, without time for reflection.
Here are the distinguished men who
have preceded white-Jay, Ellsworth,
Marshall, fancy, Chase, Waite and
Fuller.
The list should be memorized by
every school child in North Dakota and
a study of their lives would be profit
able for classes in current topics.
Too little is known of the United
States supreme court. Its members
being appointed, they do not gain the
publicity newspapers afford public SER
wants who seek office at elections. Con-
sequently, the court seems much like
a phantom to most Americans. In the
study of civics and civil government
teachers find more difficulty explaining
the judiciary than any other branch
Of the government. The executive and
legislative branches are constantly in
the limelight-but the judiciary stands
somewhat in the realm of the unreal.
