The question was presented to

the Livestock Sanitary Board, in an
effort to reach some agreement as
to the rules governing the applica-

OLDEST KNOWN COPY
OF The GREEK BIBLE
Or Portion of 1t, Recently Dis
cOvered-Was Reprinted
from Papyrus.

London, May 16.-The British
Museum authorities have just issu-
ed printed edition of an impor-
tant papyrus volume which was
found in Egypt last year.
The original Coptic manuscript
is the oldest known copy of any
translation of a considerable por-
ton of the Greek Bible, and, in
fact, says the London Times, is
probably as early as any copy now
in existence of any considerable
part of the Bible.
1t comprises the books of Deute-
ronomy, Jonah and the Acts, and
was evidently a copy made by some
devout person for his private use
from pre-existing document.
Proof is, therefore, afforded that
copies of the Egyptian-that is to
say, Coptic-translation of books
of both Testaments were in use
among Egyptian Christians early in
the fourth century-the period to
which DR.. Kenyon ascribes the
British Museum papyrus, and con-
sequently the original of the YER
sion itself cannot be placed later
than the third century.
Early monastic traditions con-
corning the spread of Christianity
in Egypt are thus confirmed. t
The manuscript had been well
used by its original possessors, for
it was found that the back binding
had been strengthened with strips
of vellum when it was repaired
some time before the middle of the
fourth century.
Considerable difficulty was ex-
perienced by the Museum experts in
handling the ancient papyrus.
Many Of the 100 leaves were worm
eaten, the edges were much rubbed,
and it was at first found impossible
to copy it, for at every turning the
ink flew off the page.
The authorities therefore took
the book to pieces, and mounted
each leaf separately between two
pieces of glass.
In the printed edition just pub
lished under the title of "Coptic |
Biblical Texts in the Dialect of Up
per Egypt" the Coptic text is print
ed line for line and column by col
umn, readings from the Greek be-
ing added.
Plates showing the papyrus and
the mutilated and defaced condi-
ton of the writing are also includ-
ed, and there is an Introductory
description of the manuscript.

CLARK AND ROOSEVELT
VICTORS IN CALIFORNIA
COIOneI's Plurality Over 10000,
While Speaker Leads Gov.
Wilson by 10000.

San Francisco, May 15.-Re-
turns to-day from yesterdays State
Presidential preference primary are
useful only to determine the exact
pluralities totaled up by Theodore
Roosevelt and Champ Clark over
their respective opponents for the
Republican and Democratic nomi-
nations. Roosevelts plurality is
estimated at between $1,000 and
60, 900 over Taft and La-Follette;
Champ Clark leads Woodrow Will
son by probably $4,000.
Roosevelt carried nearly every
county. Even San Francisco, where
a determined effort was made by
the Taft managers to make a good
showing for their candidate, favor
ed the Colonel by plurality of g.
437. Senator La Toilette carried
San Diego county only.
Champ Clark's victory over
Woodrow Wilson was sufficiently
sweeping to justify the prediction
claims of his campaign managers.
He also probably carried every
county. No organized effort was
made in behalf of any other DEM
ocratic candidate.
The twenty-six delegates won by
Roosevelt and Clark yesterday are
pledged to give their respective
their support.

A GRADUAL DECLINE
IN THE TUBERCULOSIS
Death Rate Saves Twenty.
Seven Thousand Lives
Each Year.

In the decade from 1901 to 1910.
the death rate from tuberculosis in
the United States declined from
1868 for each 100000 persons liv-
ing to 1903, a decrease of ~ per
cent, while the general death rate,
including all causes of death, de-
clined only one-half as fast, or at
the rate of 81 per cent, from
1850 to 1853.
These figures were given out in
statement just issued by The Ma
tional Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis.
They are based on data distracted
from the reports of the United
States Bureau OF the Census, and
cover the registration area in this
country. According to the state
ment, the tuberculosis death rate
has declined steadily since 1904,
when it was 201.6. On the other
hand, the general death rate shows
fluctuation downward in general
trend, but not as steady as the tu-
berculosis rate. The decline in the
tuberculosis death rate in the last
ten years means a saving of $4,000
lives at the present time.
In certain cities, such as New
York, Boston, Cleveland and Chica-
go,and in States like Massachusetts,
Rhode Island and Connecticut, the
decline in the tuberculosis death
rate is much more marked than in
the country at large.
The National Association says
that there are many factors work.
ing together to cause the decline in
the tuberculosis death rate, such
factors as the change in the charac-
ter of our urban population, in
creased sanitation, and better hous-
ing, but probably as potent a fac
tor as any has been the nationwide
campaign. 'It
may be foretold with considerable
certainty" the statement concludes,
that when the effects of the pres
emit rapidly increasing provision for
the care of tuberculosis patients
shall have become evident, the de-
cline in the death rate from con-
in the coming decade will
be even more marked than that in
he last one"

Carriers.
A MOVE IN RIGHT DIRECTION
(By CLYDE H. Tayenner.l

Washington. May 1S.-"We ia
vor federal aid to State and local
authorities in the construction and
maintenance of post roads"
This was a Democratic pre-elec-
ton promise. 1t was a plank in the
platform adopted by the National
Democratic party at the, Denver
convention in 1910.
This prediction promise, along
with nearly every other one made
by the Democrats on the stump in
the last campaign, has been fulfill
ed. The Democratic House of Rep
resentatives has just passed the
Shackleford amendment to the
post-ofiice appropriation bill pro-
viding for an expenditure of from
ten to eighteen million dollars an
nually for the construction and i'm
provement of the nations roads.
The principle on which it is pro-
posed to spend this money is based
on compensation to be paid by the
Federal Government for the use OF
roads traversed by carriers in the
rural free delivery service, and is
divided into three classes, as fol-
lows
Glass "N''-The highest form of
improved road in the country, for
which it is proposed to pay $25 per
mile per year.
Glass pa thoroughfare of
high quality. but not equal to Glass

pay $40 per mile per year.
