IS. The British archaeologist.
The collection is tar from being in
discriminate and represents with sing
ular fullness the dynastic and Ptole-
maic periods of Egyptian history. To
give anything like a catalogue Of us
contents would be impossible. but n
few of the items that stand out and
have special significance may be mem
toned.
First among these is a fragment Of
a painting upon canvas. the earliest
known painting upon canvas, dating
from the eighteenth dynasty of the
middle kingdom period in Egypt. and
is therefore about $500 years old. IT
was found on the site of the temple
at Deir-el- Bahari. Thebes. and shows
a group Of seven Egyptians about to
perform the act of veneration before
the goddess Hathor. who is represent
ed in the form of COW.
This painting was discovered by
Professor Rustafiaell one year before
u temple To this goddess was unearth-
ed on the side of mountain at Deir-
cl-Bahari by Professor Navlle in 1906.
The two discoveries have cleared up
much that has been heretofore con-
lecture IN regard 10 this goddess. The
painting is astonishingly well pre-
served. considering its great age.

The New Haven investigation inev-
itably centuries up the suggestion that
we are TO have another great inves-
tgation as sensational as that made by
the Armstrong insurance commission
in 1905 and 1906.
But we believe that there soon will
be seen 4 fundamental difference in
these two proceedings.
In 1905 the spirit in which the pub
lie opinion supported Charles +.
Hughes was one of angry eagerness
To punish those men whom II consid-
cred responsible for the wrongs Of a
system. The spirit was one Of ven
geance.
Today the policy with which Joseph
W. Folk, on behalf of this Interstate
Commerce commission, is going into
the New Haven records is decidedly
different.
The object Of the inquiry, according
to Mr.. Folk, is not vengeance or pun
ishmcnt
eOur object" he declared, is to OBJ
tain information that will result in
legislation that will cause il 10 be as
grave crime to plumber the public

Mr.. Folk may prove TO be another
sIughes in the dramatic importance Of
the work which he is trying to do, but
he speaks for a different era He
investigates not in order to tear down
an old system but to construct the
framework for building up new one.
As long as he holds this object in
view there is no reason why the bust
ness community should look upon the
New Haven investigation as a depress
