J. H. llri-sistvl of till; I'llherMty of ChiriKO wlllrh Is about to bH prcsi'titi'il to the French Academy of science, eon tents of this report hum just ioen made known for the first lime In this country in a:i interview given hy.Pror. Dreasled t the AsKiriul J Press. The fnv sti-iilloii was made, ac cording to J'rc.f. Mreasleil, under his direction after the return of the Mesopotamia!! expedition of the Oriental Institute i;f the I'nlver Rlty of ChiciiKo and its arrival at Baghdad late- In April. 1!)2U. The lll'itish civil authorities at this time asked Prof. Breasted and his party to nscend tiin Kuplirates to a ruined Unman fortress at Salihij ih. on an informal archaeoh -li'tl expedition on their bi half. Tie fhleai;i scho lar welcomed the commission, hut .mkfd that he mluht first complete some researches in Persia. Ho was secretly Informed that delay would inalce the Kuphra'.is mission lm;:"s slhle, as the British were preparing to withdraw their linos on the up per Euphrates almost 100 miles down the river. It developed that, while the Brit. Isii forces had occupied the ruined fortress, Cap!. M. C. Murphy hail dlpcovored in .1 chapel in the ruin some wall t cilntiiiMs .evidently of ancient origin. This discovery was communicated to the authorities thrmipli I.t. fill. (I. I.eicliman. Miss flertrude Hell, whom Prof. Breasted described as an intrepid explorer and archar'piolst. was consulted, and stmgested thai Prof. Breasted be sent to the fortress. Accord ingly he set out with his party and arrived on the scene llil day before the withdraw;! of the British mili tary frontier. "Ours was ihe 'first western ex pedition," said Prof. Breasted, "to cross the lli'jv Arab state from' Baghdad to title Mediterranean after It was proclaimed. The fortress of Kalihiyah was difficult of hocohs even when It was within British lines, and It is unlikely that an other expedition will soon pene trate into tills remote and inhos pitable region." On the way to Salihiyah the par. ty was entertained at the British cump. and I.t. Col. Ijcachinan clear c I out his office to make room for the urehaeolnejsls' five field beds. The rhapi 1 of the fortress was decided by the inveslii.'atorK to have been the tenilple not only of Komilit legionaries but likewise of some Oriental cult. This appeared from the character of tile paintings, some of which had to he uncovered by cleariiifj rulbish which hid accum ulated in the ruin. One. of tbe palntins appeared to show a local Oriental famiiy at worship, urrotli er showed a irroun of Homan sold iers worshipping before lmat;eg of the deified emperors. The Oriental personaL'es portruyo.! h id hands up raised In a Kestur."- recognized as one employed In Kastcrn Tili-jini-rites; among them was a gorgeous ly dressed woman thought to be a local ruler such as Zenchia, the famous nil'-'!! who defied Koine. The name1 inscribe. I beneath her fig ure resemliled In form thai of Zeno bia, wlio ruled Palmyra only 100 miles aw.iy. "We cannot even conjecture," Raid Prof. Breasted, "the, nature of I11Y relations to tile Homan power which is commemorated in the oth er group." Necklaces t'Tminatlni; In lotus floa-ers were among the devices fig uring in tile Oriental group. "That we have in tli'se wall !:cenes an cxanip!.' of the mostly lost, 'ancestry of liyzautine painting Is evident.'' said Prof. Breasted, "from comparison of them with the early mos.iics surviing at Haven na. Til i ruia'd Aiunan rnrtress at Salil.iyah has thus furnished a new and unparalHied eximide of the transition from deiailem oriental ize. I Hellenistic art to the Byzan tine art from which reviving Ku rope inhi rited bo much." The jparty comliidid that the probaiile date of th" paintings was the third century, "when east and west met in Syr 1." It was noted that the face will.!: tile British o."ll 11 rs hail ie-cril"d as th" lest paint l was. by the time the scholars arrived, scratched and deface I by riini" (. s. ;i iciinix la.-t, m ..ibly a jiriev.iiu Arab.

"The severe simplicity and au sterity or Gandhi's life, combined with his appeal to the principle of Ahlinsa' 1 non-injury 1 , Inherited from Buddhists unci now ingrained in Hindu life, has securcl him the, support of the Hindu' masses, anil particularly vegetarions.

There are of course many Kennlm' patriots who, believing In the efficacy of his methods to ob tain home rule, also follow him. But I tun satisfied he Is using them all to further his own ends, an attempt In which he Is bound to fall." TRAFFIC GUI Krciulit , l'atcs and lJailron'!
