BOOK LOVERS IN TRANSPORT Expect Literary Treasures to Be Unearthed From the Volumes Stored at Constantinople. Some of the books of Livy undoubtedly will be found among the great number of volumes ascertained to be stored in crypts under the public buildings of Constantinople, but will the Host books of Livy be found? The report that the long-awaited discovery is about to be made may rest on no better foundation than the vague Impression of some uneducated Turkish under official. And. indeed, in the absence of any information whatever, on the subject, what more natural conjecture than that the lost historical works will he restored to the world when the vast collection of ancient books whose existence was previously unsuspected come to be ex* amined?

It: Is agreeable to think that forgotten authors of great merit and forgotten works of undisputed value will gain new recognition. If the missing works of the Roman historian are among the volumes further cause will be given for congratulation over the Turkish downfall.?St. Louis Post Dispatch. Consoling.
