with stereoptican views of the an
cient finds. In the introduction to
the lecture DIR. Carroll told briefly
of the origin OF the Archaeological
Institute in Boston in the year 1879
by DIR. John Elliot Norton, who had
for few years previous been stir
ring the world by his most wonderful
discoveries in the ancient parts OF
the world
He described fully the four Ameri-
can schools of archaeology in for
eign lands. The first one founded
by Norton in Athens. 1881; second
one at Rome in 1890; third in Jeru-

ment palace. over 500 years old be-

to the discovery OF Troy by DIR.
SchIicman. OF Germany, relating the
story of Trojan war. as told in HON.
er's liiiad. the characters OF which

about 500 e. c. The ancient Troy
was found beneath five layers OF an
cient cities.
Later the same discoverer unearth-
ed the supposed likeness OF Agamen-
non, q character of 900 n. e.
Even moro remarkable than all
these was the discovery by Oscar

c.. was blessed with many relics and
displayed the art of sculpture of his
time by the fresco on tho walls Of
his magnificent palace.
During the lecture views of the in
terror of the palaces, walls. APP

geons and works OF fine art, both in
drawing and sculpture, were thrown
on the screen.
At the close OF Or. Carroirs lee
ture DR.. Fitzhugh. OF the University
of Virginia. who is much interested
in this work in the South. made in
brief address an appeal to the peo-
pie OF Richmond To accept the in
vitation OF the Archaeological Insti-
