MOBILE GETS READY FOROYSTER SEASON Developing General Trade
 With South America PRINT IN SPANISH
Argentine Republic Offers to Carry Free From Mobile Alabama Ex- hibits for the National
 Exposition
By W. P. THOMPSON

Mobile, August Special l-But a few more days now remain to be passed until "the month" with an "R' will be ushered in, September, and then the oyster, which has been protected will be disturbed, brought up from it's seclusive salt habita- ton and served to all lovers of the rough shell biva1ye who have the price
 Mobile is a great oyster and fish dis ;ribmlng pont; already the msn who de- pend upon this industry for a livelihood are getting busy for the approaching season.
 State Commissioners Craft and Clark nave just returned from tour of inspect ing the oyster beds in thls vicinity, and ditions concerning this industry, but say that oysters this year will be much finer in quality, and that other oyster produc- ing states can stand up and take notice" cf competitor worthy of all their energy and producing qualities. The commission found it necessary to close several reefs for the reason that depletion was apparent.
 The oysters remaining at the beds men- llDlieu III AulS pdillcuidf tOHnettiOu dte said to be Of the very best grade, ano in order to increase and protect them The commissioners decided to close these ieefs to prevent transplanting from them. This is considered a wise de. clsion, as the oyster industry in this To- cality not only concerns our local resi- cents. butt is of interest to the people Of all the southern and southwestern states.
 Tine men who are, and have been de- pendent upon the advantage of working the public beds here referred to, can easily find opportunities in the same line near the recent locality they are now compelled to leave.
 Commissioners Croft and Clark are de- termined to do all in their power to mold the trade that Alabama has en- loved. but to use every honest effort within their reach to increase the ship ping of oysters and fish from this point to purchasers. And right here. permi; ne to mention the active operations Of the Mobile Chamber of Commerce. This body of entcrprising and progressive men overlook nothing that evinces the fciterment of Alabama industries. Of course, like other business men in other cities, they always seek to further their own personal and city interests-this Is permissible.

A BIBLE MANUSCRIPT.

The British Museum has Just pub
lished an ar'icnt Coptic manuscript
found in the course of recent excava-
tions in Egypt, which contains on
papyrus most of the text of Deutero-
nomy, the book of Jonah and large
portion of the New Testament.
The Importance of this version ~
that it indicates that the scriptures
We're known in the generally accepted
tongue to the Egyptians of the fourth
century A. ID. This particular copy.
1t is supposed, was made not later
than the middle of that century. but
the translation it perpetuates may
have been extant since the end of the
third century. or from an even ear
lier period.
To biblical scholars this is a dscov-
cry of the utmost Importance. The
worn and venerable manuscript is
perhaps as old as any copy that we
have OF any substantial portion of the
Bible. 1t has even more than the sig
nificance that attaches to the various
secular or religious papyri hitherto
disinterred by w. Flinders Petrie and
others, for it indicates that even at
tnat early day among earnest seekers
after spiritual illumination and reli-
gious truth there existed the eager
spirit Of inquiry and acquisitiveness
that found it worth while to give a
wider circulation in their own ton
que, in their own country, to the en-
| nobling ideas OF the Hebrew and
Greek originals-Philadelph Public
Ledger. tsflv 10
