VALUABLE ROMAN
CITY UNEAR1HED
Exquisite Sculpturtd Figures
Are Discovered There

Leptis, Magma. Lydia, Sept. To
Out of the sands of Tripolitania,
where for ~ centuries it has laid
dead and buried. magnificent
Roman city Of Phoenician origin
has arisen.
Two years ago. when archaeol
osists OF many nations came here.
there was merely desert Today
there is a skeleton city of tenn
pies, monuments, arches. splendid
columns and private villas.
The facades of the unearthed
shops are enriched with sculptured
marbles of rare beauty. A beauti-
full column stands between every
two doors.
Many of the works of architec-
ture which were found crumbled
under their covering of sand have
been rebuilt with the oriniginal
stones. The tour-faced arch of
Septimius Severus, the Roman en-
peror who was born here and died
at York, in England, has been re-
built with its own blocks and or
naments.
Among the finds of the ar
chaeologists. most of whom are
Italian. are exquisite sculptured
figures of gods. warriors, priests
and magistrates.
This skeleton city Of Leptis Mag
ma once was flourlshing port
town with population OF 10000.
When the Romans took it over
from the Phoenicians, it became
the most important commercial
town in the Mediterranean. H2re
came all the riches of Africa, and
were loaded on ships which found
a refuge here from the devastating
north winds.
When Rome began its long de-
cline, Leptis sank too, Its ruin
was fastened by river floods.
When the Turks conquered Alex
andria in the seventh century they
found Leptis covered by sand ID
already forgotten. Leptis then be-
came the Pompeii of Africa.

WORKMAN FINDS DRUID
ruins HIDDEN BY VINES
Caves and Ancient Art Found At
Southgate, England
by ExcayatOrs.

London. Sept. 7.-UP)-What
is believed to be valuable dlscov-
cry of Druidical remains have been
uncovered by workmen at Amos
Grove, Southgate, and an invitation
has been sent the Archaeological
Society to investigate.
The remains consist of two
large dark. caves built of huge
boulders, many of which weigh over
three tons. In front there is what
appears to be an altar with sacri-
fetal stones. and on one side there
is an immense pillar upon which
presentations of serpents can be
traced.
The remains as they stand are
almost completely hidden by mistle-
toe and ivy, and big mounds of
earth which it is now thought may
conceal other relics of the Druid ;
Age, stand near by. The caves
stand within a short distance OF
the famous Mitchenden Oak-a tree
which is mentioned in the Dooms
day Book.
The discovery was made upon an
estate which once belonged to Lord
Inverforth, but which is now being
developed into plots for building
purposes.

TRUST FUND FOR
Debt OF nation
British Cidlenry Establishes
Financial Reservoir

London, Sept. 7.-tFl-Although
England is the most heavily taxed
nation in the world. a number OF
public spirited citizens are coming
forward with huge money gifts de-
signed to reduce the national debt
of SIS, 900. 0oo, 900.
Recently several millionaires
voluntarily have given large por-
tions of their fortunes, specifying
that the income be used either in
paying off the national debt or the
principal be deposited in trust to
accumulate at compound interest
and then revert to the government
for the same purpose.
The s2,5o0,00o gift OF Lord Inch
cape in memory of his daughter,
Hon, Elsie Mackay, who flew to her
death in the wastes of the Atlantic
ocean with Captain Hinchliffe, is the
latest donation, as we'll as the Sec
ond of So,5OO.0OO made by citizens
this year. The first. announced in
February, was made by man whose
name was not disclosed.
In order that the gifts may be
mana ged in trust for the nation and
that the capital may accumulate at
compound interest. it was neces-
sary for parliament to amend the
Thelusson act, which restricted gifts
of this nature. The act grew out OF
litigation over the estate of Peter
'rhelusson, Philpot Lane merchant
of his fortune made in West India
trade to trustees to accumulate with
the proviso that in the end it would
be divided among lineal descendants.
or revert to the government to aid in
extinction of the national debt. Most
of the estate, however, was absorbed
by litigation and the government
prohibited similar schemes.
Stanley Baldwin, prime minister,
has given s75O,ooo. and an anony-
nous donor gave 100000.
A number of peculiar gifts have
been received. Two British visitors
to Nice who won heavily at baccarat
sent part of their winnings. A man
who wrote that he was only poor"
sent $3.50, Another man sent 1925.
the amount of his disability pension.
Gifts of war bonds have been numer-
