Fifteen hundred years ago the
body of Attila, the famous leader of
the Huns, was buried in Hungary in
three coffins-one of iron, another of
silver over it, and the outer one Of
gold. He died the night of his nup-
tials with Ildico, a beautiful woman,
and the last of his many wives
Now reports come that Attila' S
coffin has been discovered. The place
of his burial has never been known,
because it was accomplished secret
ly at night, and the men who dug
it were killed on the spot.
Attila was a cruel warrior, a bar
barian who ravaged Europe, who
had respect for no people or per-
son, excepting one. Pope Leo I.
visited him in his camp when he
threatened Rome and prevailed up
on him to spare the Holy City. The
most famous of Attila's battles was
the one of Chalons, in Champagne,
said to have been the cruelest ever
fought 1t was won by AEtius, and
162, 900 men fell in it. Attila was
utterly defeated. and intended to
burn himself and his women alive,
had AEtius renewed the battle the
following day.-Chicago Journal of
Commerce.
