Alexandria's former greatness. A large portion. of the monument kanwo as Pompey's Pillar fell the other day, and in its descent greatly dam- aged the pedestal.
'.
Pompey's Pillar is the most important ralic. of antiquity in Alexandria. It is made of red granite from Assouan. The foundation-stones were taken from, adjoining ancient building, one of them beating the name and figure of Sethor..I of the nineteenth dyszɛty, who roigned 1100-sc. The column was over roo foot high and was 8 feet widz
The pillar was erected A.D. 303 by the prefect Fompey as a land-mark to mariners, and later où a status of Emperor Diocletian was placed an it by the prefect Posidius. At first it was thought to mark the burial place of the great Pompey. The fall of the masonry, made 4- tremendous noise, and greatly perturbed the people in Alexandria,
Thit damage to Pompey's Fillar in all thị more distressing as it has occurred on the eve of the Archæalpgical Congress which is to meet this coming week. The Congress was ärst held at Athens in 1905, and Cairo has, been chosen for the second meeting. Over six hundred delegates have" notified their acceptance of in- vitations, Great Britain"will" be reprefented by Dr. Wallis Budge, the well-known Egypt- ologist, and Mr. A. Hamilton Smith, hend of the Greek and Roman secilens at the British · Museum 1| Austria-Hungary `by – M., at Emile Reisch, of Vienna University ; and Mr..

Its nature also has been frankly made known. It is palatable as honey and contains all the nutritive and curative properties of Pure Cod Liver Oil, extracted by us from fresh cod livers, combined with the Compound Syrup of Hypophosphites and the Extracts of Malt and Wild Cherry. A combination of suprema excellence and medicinal merit.
