Oldest code of laws of Babylonia translated
A new English translation of the Babylonian code of Hammurabi is discussed, with notes on its origins, penalties, and social structure. The article reviews the monument, the translation by C H W Johns, and parallels to later legal codes, including provisions on wages, physicians fees, slave fugitive penalties, marriage and land rights, and royal central power. It also covers the work of Justin McCarthy on British portraits and a 1903 hospital and charitable work yearbook.

Farrar as Headmaster and Man of Letters in Cornhill

Precocious Boy and Dr Farrar In Dreamland Drama
Nyson presents a new poem described as a drama with precocious boy dialogue. Dr Farrar dismisses the childlike guessing while the boy stalls, and months later Queen Mary is published, Farrar’s proximity to dreamland kings lending reality to the works.
