then, obtaining disguises, he wandered on

to be Insane. This assured him of respect
and good treatment everywhere, and. al
though he bad many narrow eacapes, he
managed to play his role to the end and
make his way back to civilisation with his
valuable head still on hi. shoulders.
He saw the land of the DJabala. then
crossed the Atlas mountain home of the
Berbers, and. to end bis trip pleasantly,
he wandered through the country of the
famous and savage Riff pirates. There he
"spoiled the Egyptians," for he gathen-d
money in company with a begging pilgrim.
In whose party he Journeyed from tribe to

In Asia Minor the Imperial German
Archeaologlcal Institute haa paid for ex
cavations on the site ot the famoua old
temple of Oordlum, and enough finds have
been made to prove that tbe workers are
digging out an ancient settlement that was
great and flourishing 1.500 year, beforo
Chrl.1.
Other excavations tn the peninsula of
Miletus, on tbe Aegean aea. have produced
results so tempting that private German
capital has been furnished, with which the
greater part of the peninsula baa been
purchased outright to assure successful
prosecution of the work. Tbe territory
thus acquired comprises the site of the
great Necropolis and the Sacred Way, lead
ing to the famous temple of Apollo of
Dldyma, the greatest holy place of Asia
Minor In It. day.
Thl. purchaae, it la said now, will make
a far more wonderful place to visit than
even Pompeii, for when the excavations
are completed a perfect dream city will
have been unearthed. The entire hill I
front of the city, crowned by the famous
theater, belong, to the exc.vatora, also
the ancient harbor basin, with It. en
trance marked with two colopsal marble
Hon., and with a port city with ball. In
It more than 800 feet long.
Included In the purchase, also, are the
recently unearthed forum, the market place
with a Roman fountain of rare beauty, the
baths and a mass of ruins that have not
yet been examined or cleaned out.
In tbe wonderful Meaopotamlan valley, the
scene of the most Intensely Interesting his
tory of all mankind, there haa been digging
In many place.. Places that were beld
against all study and even entry by the
powerful, unbeaten Bedouin tribes, who sue-'
cessfully deflod exploration party after
party In th. last twenty years, have yielded
at last to tbe railroad engineer. The val
leys of the Euphrates and tbe Ttgrta are
being crossed and recrossed by Amerlc.ns
and German, with surveyor.' rods and
theodolites. Their ateel measuring tapes
gleam on the tawny .and. where once the
queen of Sheba trod. They are laying out
the route of the Bagdad railroad, where
one. the Assyrian, "came down like tbe
wolf on the fold."
Engineering troop, have been climbing
around and delving tn the rulna of t'rfa on
a branch of the Euphrates old Ur, the city
of Nlmrod, the hunter, eon ot Ham, firat
ruler of Shtnar. Tbe engineer, have been
planning a railroad atatlon on the very
site, perhaps, of the place where he used
to entertain the great hunter, of-the Babylonian-
kingdom that he la aaid Id old east
ern tale, to have founded. Prosaic mathe
maticians hsve been drawing up long eta
tistlc. on the .ton. tables that remain In
tact on the rock, tn front ot Urfa and that
still ar. pointed out a. the table, at which
Nlmrod hlmaelf used to sit to drink his
wine and tell, no doubt, of hla narrow es
capes and the big game that be bad killed.
When tbe steel rails are laid they may
lead over thoae very atone benches and
tablea. They will pass by the holy Laks
of Abraham, with Its .acred fish. By Its
banks, according to the local Mohammedan
tradition of today, Abraham, tbe Patriarch,
designed to sacrifice hla aon Jacob.
The engineers have found that the ancient
tales of ths Euphrates aa a mighty and
terrible river were based on good grounds.
They acknowledge In their report that their
modern science t. going to meet with al
most .. great a problem there aa did tbe
aclence of the Babylonians', for "In the
tin, ot the annual thaw, far up In the
mountain, of Kurdistan and Armenia the
river rise. a. much as eighteen feet and
tears away everything that t. In lt. path.
So tbe olden trouble, of th. vanished brldgj
builder, may be experienced again by the
present onea.
These railroad engineers also have enab'ed
the world to learn something at laat about
the mysterious and notorious devil wor
shiper, of Asiatic Turkey, who dwell In the
hill, of Mo.ul on the Tigris, ne.r the
ruin, of Nineveh. The Turk, call them
Extinguisher of Lights. They are Kurds,
and recognise two force, only In the world
the good and the ba. Arguing that the
good can not do any on. harm, they wor
hip the b.d, tn order to "keep .olid" with
It. They dare not even mention the devil
by name. If they refer to him at all ' they
call him ."The Mighty King" or "The
King Peacock."
Tbe German explorer, a re making new
finds continually In the Black Hills beyond
Babylon. A recent excavation baa un
earthed a temple of a god of physicians.
The chemical examination of Babylonian
copper and bronxe articles has convinced
the explorer, that the Babylonians under
stood the art of making bronze out of an
alloy of copper and antimony at least
S.000 years before Christ.
Dr. William Hein, assistant curator of
the Museum ot National Hiatory of
