venerable Relic, 1t is Oldest Record
Extant of Ancient Legal Code.
Found Near Susa.
What is said to be an archaeological
discovery of great interest to scholars
the world over is announced by the
museum of the University of Pennsyl-
vania.
1t is a shattered tablet. upon par
ticles of which, pieced together. are
inscribed many of the missing laws
from the code of King Hamurabi. who
ruled Babylonia at a period estimated
about POO to 23OO b. c.
Most of the laws. as deciphered, re
fer to financial transactions. and one
contains the germ from which. per-
haps, sprang all bankrupt laws of the
last 1000 years. No criminal statutes
are eXpounded.
The tablet which is believed to be
part of the oldest collection of laws
and preceptS eXtant, was found at
Susa in the winter of 1901-'02 by NJ.

brought to this country recently by an
expedition of the University of Penn
sylvania, returning from Nippur. an
ancient city in Babylonia. where the
university has made extensive excava-
lions.
! Ancents' Bankruptcy Law.
DR.. Arno Poebel of the University of
Breslau, a distinguished oriental
scholar. deciphered the much worn
Babylonish characters. The law re-
lating to bankruptcy says:
If a man has borrowed grain or
money from the merchant and has
neither grain nor money to pay back,
but he has movable goods. he shall
in the presence of witnesses, accord
ing Is words missing the merchant
shall not refuse; ne must accept"
Another law. dealing with interest.
says:
IF the merchant lends grain upon
interest he shall take one-fifth of a
ker of grain for each ker as interest.
If he lends money upon interest he
shall take a sixth and six grains of
silver for each shekel as interest"
Interest at 20 Per Cent
This would have required borrc Eers
to pay interest at the rate of - per
cent. Another law provided that if q
merchant charged compound interest
he should lose the principal and six
times the amount of interest as for
felt
The borrower who had been robbed
and had nothing with which to repay
was compelled to 20 to the temple and
take oath to his losses. after which Ire
was permitted his freedom.
Provision was made in the ancient
law for the business man who met
with failure. for it is set forth in the
tablet that if an agent returning from
i tour has made no profits the mcr-
chant may not claim interest on goods
or Tor money advanced.

Besides, [ never was able to appreciate
the Justice of abusing the man who sells
liquor, when the nation, the State and the
city sells him the right to do 1t.
Consequently, am inclined to think that
our Methodist brethren are little too hard
on us Democrats in the matter of door
keeper. SchOenewolf
We did not elect him to sit in the Senate
where LOrlmer used to sit, and where Till
man, Fletcher, Bailey Johnston and so many
other Democrats said by their votes that he,
the Republican, ought to continue to sit
We did not elect the ex-keeper of the saloon
to make our laws for u.s. To do that. we
elect such virtuous individuals as Senator
Smith, of Georgia, for instance
Did our brethren, in their Conferences and
Associations, denOunce us about Lorimer and
Smith? No
Then why SO hard on poor Schoenewolf!
All he can do is to open and shut the gal
lery doors, when ardent admirers of our good
and pure Senators visit the gallery to gaze
downward In ecstacy upon the good men and
pure. who sit there in the Senate to make laws
for us.
Senator Smith of Georgia is a saloon
keeper, (His saloon is in the Piedmont Hotel
Atlanta, Ga)
He isn't even an "ev-keeper" But he is in
the Senate, on the floor. while poor Schoene-
wolf who quit the business of selling liquor,
is nothing more than a keeper in the
house of such lords as Senator Smith.
