J Oiabtd Master-Workman Powderly,
the head of the Knights of labor in this
country, says there is no significance in
the fact diat so many jtrike are now in
progress in the United Stated by assem
blies of the order he represents. 'It
is a coincidence merely, ' ' he continues,
"and there is no concerted :etion con
templated by the ojrder, aa hasbeeh sug
gested, the strikes being incidental aid;
I, think, chiefly owing to tie fact that
this is just the beginning of the spring
trade and the opening of;a peiiod. of
prosperity in' business." But this is
strange reasoning, surely. That an im
provement in business should lead to or
suggest strikes is a novel idea land one
which we are surprised to 'find coining
from so prominent a man as Mr, Pow
,derly . The ordinary person would sup
pose that such an improvement would
tend to smooth over any difficulties that
might exist between the wo
and his employer. j

They refer ito British doctors only! but
we presume that' there is no$ difference
enough between these and their breth

They dispel the popular idea that
pnyBicians are neaxwy auu : long-iiyea,
which C has; gained ground ; possibly
because: of the , fact that1 doctors
don't, take their oWh medicines J and
.show , ttat the admonition "Physi

; Dr. Ogle finds, in short, that among

The causes of death among the doc
tors over the sea may also be worthy of
attention. The rate
given by Dr. Ogle
is on the basis of a
pared with malesxof
the age; of twenty
million and as com-
all other classes of,
and over. While
only sixteen men generally die of scarlet
fever, 59 British doctors are carried on
by that disease. To typhus fever 79
doctors fall victims, j while among men
generally such victims number but 38.
Diphtheria annually icarries off, in Great
-Britain, 14 men only; out. of every mil

ighted up the land of Palestine with
new interest to every reader of the sacred
story. The labors of Robinson, Thom
son and of the leaders of the American
and English Palestine Exploration so
ciety have helped to bring the most im
portant book in the world into the clear
ight of facts. We may bore that many
of its mysteries may be cleared np and
and that a multitude of mistaken no
tions may be corrected. But in Egypt
moie than in any other land have the
recent explorations brought us into
close communion with antiquity . The
domestic life of the Pharaohs and even
the humblest Egyptian peasant is made
evident, and we are now beginning to
understand the relations ancient Egypt
held to the political, the social and the
educational affairs of her time, .But
however much has een exhumed from
the sou ot the Turkish empire, no one
who pretends to know anything about
the subject would dare to affirnf that we
have yet gathered a tithe of the rich
harvest that awaits us. It would be
hazardous to attempt to put'an estimate
upon the value to human race of the
treasures still lying buried in western
Asia. Asia Minor over its whole extent
is still comparatively untouched by the
pick and spade. A few square acres
upturned at Troas and Ephesus have
shown us the wealth of the treas
ure. The Mesopotamian valley, per
haps, the earliest home of the human
race, and which contains the records that
go back to the very roots of human his
tory, has buried beneath its sou that
which is of more value to the world than
all the gold and silver mines put to
getner. a lew mounds pierced near
Mosul have discovered to the world the
literature of a mighty race of conquer-
on and Assyrian history had to be re
written. A few gleanings from the sur
face in the regions Of the upper Euphrates'
have startled the students of history by
w u -,
the apparition of the almost Unknown
race of the ancient Hittites. Syria and
equally interesting' material and pro-
luusu uiucu more, we xnow enougn to
know that the remains of antiquity still
preserved from the vandalism of the
ages and that await the scrutiny of man, !
are sumcientiy abundant to cast an in
valuable light upon the most sacred and
profound problems of human history.
Ine .Last has been the magnetic

yet much to be, done. The great
American, Br. Bobinson, still re
mains the ' foremost name in this de
partment. It is a matter of chagrin to
many American scholars that the Eng
lish society should be left to do this
whole work alone. The Wolfe explor
ing expedition to . Babylonia under, the
management of Dr. William H. 'Ward,
of New York city, which , war carried
out- so successfully, last!, year, shows
"that the Americans have not lost in
terest in Bible lands or forgotten how

: Beyrout as the educational centre of
the Arab-speaking world! is beginning
to offer, attractions to American stu
dents; For several years the Syrian
Protestant college has opened its doors
to young men who wished to study
Oriental history and the Arabic lan
guage. At present a fellow from Har
vard -college and a recent graduate
from the Union theological seminary of
New York city, are making Beyrout
their headquarters. This1 is a begin
ning, and it is probable that many more
willfoilow.
The great trouble is that when a stu
dent goes to the Orient he leaves all
: books behind him. He can do little
; more than make a plunge into the east,
gather a -few facts, and then return to
digest them in the libraries of Europe
Or America. Why could not Ameri
cans equip a thorough-going library and
' museum at Beyrout or at some similar
centre, and give encouragement to stu
: dents to prosecute original studies in the
; East ? If a Greek school at Athens has
attractions for a limited number of stu
: denta of Greek history, how much more
attractive could a similar Institution at
Beyrout be made to the much more nu
merous students of the Orient and the
Bible ? The authorities of the Syrian
Protestant college would gladly furnish
land for Buch a project aha even assist
in carrying out the work. A proper
building could be erected for $10,000.
.The expenses of travel could belessened
by at least forty pencent by a system of
co-operation. Money invested in such
an institution dbuld not be - wholly
wasted, for in easi of failure the college
wouia oo the natoral heir.
