Inscription on Clay
Cylinders in Collection
at Yale Deciphered
| New Haven, Conn., March 27.—In
scriptions on clay cylinders in the
Babylonian collection at Yale Univer
sity, have been deciphered, it was an
nounced to-day and much information
for students of Biblical chronology
has been obtained.
One cylinder inscribed for Nebuch
adnezzar, who reigned B. C. 6J6 to
561, recounts his deeds with reference
to the restoration and enlargement
of the walls and moats of Babylon
and of temples and sanctuaries there
abouts. He records the rebuilding of
Marchuk, recognized as the ancient
tower of Babel of the Book of Genesis.
Nebuchadnezzar adds, according to
the translation: "I sought and found
the foundation stone of the temple of
Lugal-Marada, my deity, and laid it
upon the foundation stone of Naram-
Sin, King, my ancient ancestor." This
ancestor lived 3,000 years before
Nebuchadnezzar. Naram-Sin was the
builder of Babylon and perhaps the
greatest builder of all history.
The Nebuchadnezzar cylinder was
found near Nippur on the Euphrates.
Efforts Made to Capture
Smugglers of Chinese
San Francisco, March 27.—A boat
specially designed for the smuggling
of Chinese is no wto be used by the
government to chase smugglers, it
was learned to-day. Several weeks

tured the fast motor cruiser Calypso
in Monterey bay, and this craft is be
ing overhauled here for the patroling
of San Francisco bay and the harbor
entrance. The Calypso is equipped
with a 7 5-horse power engine capable
of driving her at a speed far in excess
of that of the old revenue boats. She
draws only three feet of water.
Sunbury Man Rescues
Two From Drowning
Sunbuy, Pa., March 27.—Attracted
by the cries of Harry Kemp and Isaac
Wolf, . both 4 years old, who were
helpless in a drifting boat along the
swollen Susquehanna river here to
day, Forest Messimer leaped from the
window of a bridge tollhouse, and,
swimming to the children, arrived just
as they jumped out of the boat. He
rescued the Kemp boy and swam back
to the Wolf boy just as he arose the
second time and rescued him. Messi
mer was exhausted when he reached
shore.

Granddaughter of Tyler
Asks Wilson to Continue
Her as a Postmistress
By Associated Press
Washington, March 27.—Miss Mat
tie R. Tyler, seventy years old, a
granddaughter of ex-President Tyler,
went to the White House to
day to plead with President Wilson
to continue her as postmistress at
Courtland, Va.
Mis? Tyler, who has held the post
seventeen i rs, says she supports
herself and sister on the salary of $650
a year, but that now "a clique of Vir
ginia politicians'' is trying to deprive
her of the position. She did not sea
the President, who was occupied with
the cabinet, but left a note asking for
an engagement, which will be granted.
: The Post Office Department several
| years ago recommended another to
I .succeed her, but she successfully
pleaded in person with President
Itoosevelt.
