SAMARKAND. Central Asia. July 9, 1910. The Gur Amir, as the tomb of Tamer?ne Is called by the natives, is the best reserved of all the liistorie buildings in amarkand. The Russian government nrnished -the money to put it In order, t is now under tlie protection of a party f mullahs, or Mahommedan priests, who . atch every visitor closely lest more amago be done. Tlie government made no attempt to estore the original decorations or repair he ravages that time and vandalism are caused, but simply arrested the deay of the buildihg and intends, I undertand, to keep it in good repair. At one time the entire exterior was overed with Persian tiles of turquoise oior. More than half of them have alien off and disappeared. The retainder are more or less defaced by ampness and abuse, so that the surface joks like a garment of rich material rhich has been eaten by moths. Around the entrance the tiles are tidied with bullets, fired by Russian inaders at the tieeitig Gaits who took pfugo within these sacred walls. Kvery ow and then somebody with a penknife icks a leaden pill out of the walls. Comparative Dignity of Tomb. This mausoleum does , not compare in imensions, in design or decorations with ie tomb of Napoleon in Paris or the losque of Omar in Jerusalem, or with dozen other similar structures in Eu?pe. It is like an ordinary chunk of coal omparerl with a diamond in contrast ith the Taj Mahal at Agra and other >mbs In India. Their material is marble, worked with xquisite skill, and the detail is as fine nd as perfect as the lines of an enraver, while tlie Gur Amir is a mass of ID ssfitl ?'V itf o vr>ol lott t nnniini'tlrtric o r?/l IW.V11 i , v ? V AV J nn V |M V LlVlir, U I IU npressive only by its size and the recolction that the barbaric love of color assessed by its builders caused it to be ivered with an acre or two of glistening arceiain. It was built by Tamerlane himself, beveen the years 13115'and 1404, at the eighth of his power and glory. That ttraordinarv man, evidently, fearing his ime would be lost in oblivion, endeavor1 to place a perpetual reminder of his laraeter and achievements before the res of posterity. i I^est they should forget who he was ad what he did. he caused the portals . ad the pediments of the building to be scribed with bombastic eulogies of him>lf. similar to those engraved upon the , pproaches to the tombs of the Pharaohs , i Egypt. The wails are made of gray virireous ricks, made in the neighborhood, .similar j i shape and size, to those used in Pompfi. The tiles, made In Persia and , rought more than nine hundred miles pon the backs of camels, are about six ; iches square, three-quarters of an inch tick and similar to those with which j le exteriors of all great buildings in amarkand were decorated. j Inclosed in a Grove. The mausoleum stands within a grove be- ' veen the old city of Samarkand and te new Russian settlement. It is Inlosed by a low balustrade of stone, well reserved and well kept, and the grove ' musical with the sounds of tunning ater. j The tomb proper is a cartridge-shaped one 130 feet high. On the lower half of le elevation the walls are straight and ?neered with tiles covered with inscripons from the Koran. The upper half is 1 ightly bulbous or melon shaped and the j it-face is creased with narrow lines to , te apex. The tomb is approached through a mon- ' mental archwav sixty feet high and ' tirty-six feet wide at the base, which as also veneered with tiles Beside it ] a minaret reaching nearly to the height ( r the dome?perhaps 110 feet?which evientlv was originally much higher and ] as been broken off at the top. At the * >ot of this minaret is a mosque of ordiarv size and deseriiition. The group of buildings covers a full ] ere at least, perhaps more, and the alls are of surprising thickness, often towing twenty-five and thirty feet of did masonry. If this were not so they ould have entirely disappeared before ow. Tomb Worthy of Great Dead. Notwithstanding its rude construction nd damaged appearance the Gur Amir ; a noble edifice that would do honor i any nation and to any age. Its design i not so refined, its details are not so elicate, the workmanship is not so skillil nor the material so expensive as those hieh characterize the tombs of Tamerine's descendants among the moguls of idia. but it is a 'monumental structure, ppropriate to the maii and worthy of his rhievements. The Russians take great credit for havig put the mausoleum in order. 1 unfrstand, however, that the original lots, wonderful masses of carving inid with silver and mother-of-pearl, may ? found in a museum at St. Petersburg. Architect's Name Inscribed. The architect was permitted to inscribe is name in wiiite Arabic leitens two feet ng upon violet-colored tiles above the -cli of the monumental gateway, and it ads: "Mohammed, sou of Mahmoud, from Isihatt. hath made this building." Tamerlane's biographer tells us that he epared the design and superintended le work for two years himself, and that le decorating was done by slaves from liina. India and Pensia. Over the door of the mausoleum proper, similar but smaller leuers 01 wiure >rcelain upon a violet background, are le words: "Here sleeps Timour Kuragan." The term Kuragan means literally the 1 us band of a princess." and is beiieved i have been a tribute to his wife, for horn he showed in many ways remarkole admiration and affection. Inside, over the tsecond door, which 1 ;ads from an antechamber into the \ )med mausoleum where the sarcophagus i ;sts, are the words: "This is the resting place of the illusious and merciful monarch, the Sultan ' Imour Kuragan. son of the Emir Tara- s iz." I Then follows the genealogy of the fam- ( y for nine generations, each one of horn is pronounced "worthy of all 1 raise." ' The inscription proceeds to relate that < le mother of one of the ancestors of < arrterlane. named Alan Kociva. known ir and wide-for her beauty and virtue, as once visited by a w:olf. who per- ' taded her that he was a descendant of ] le sovereign of the Faithful AH, son of ( brti, and that Ali destined him to l>e her. jsband. She accepted his assurances, md the descandanfs of their son con- 1 acred the world and will possess i,t for- *1 re r." " " I "A Ray of Sunshine/' ( There has been a great deal of discuson as to the meaning of this singular * inouncement, and the word which is , iually translated "wolf" has been re- i ntly discovered to mean also "a ray Of t A " is "T - *. 1 (*-> " - '1.. VJ sunshine." It Is reasonable to suppose thai Tamerlane woulil prefer to trace his origin to a ray of sunshine rather than to a wolf. The Tartars have a tradition that his mother conceived him. while a virgin from the rays of the sun. However, the Arabicword used in this case has two meanings and the translator may take his choice. There are other Inscriptions, elaborate Arabic lettering in colors, quotations from the Koran, praises to Allah and recitals of the conquests of Timour, his military prowess and his divine wisdom. Dampness Over Everything. A wide, well kept walk leads from the archway to the entrance of a vestibule with damp, windowless walls and a vaulted roof. The floor is neatly covered with matting. Three aged mulla.is in white turbans anil dove-colored robes sat indolently, with their leg<* crossed, upon a rug In the corner, sipping tea. One of them arose, and. lighting a candle, led us into a vaulted chamber of large proportions similar to those attached to the sppulchers of the Pharaons. in which their mourners used to meet and extol the virtues of the dead. There is no light except what creeps in through the narrow open door. From this antechamber we stepped into rhc mausoleum proper, a rotunda covered by a narrow dome eighty-five feet high It was damp and chilly, although the day outside was very warm. The only light is filtered through square holes pierced in the walls of the dome and protected by stone grills. This shows the limitations of the architect. There is no evidence that glass was used in any of the buildings in Tamerlane's llrr.c. These openings admit the rain and the snow and cause a perpetual dampness, which accounts for the discoloration and decay of the decorations. One can easily see wnere the tiles have peeled off and fallen. The wainscoting r?f the rotunda, whii-li is of alAhaster. now looks like a poor quality of marble. Five Great Cenotaphs. Under the center of the dome, surrounded by a low balustrade of carved marble, are five cenotaphs. That which holds the place of honor Is a block of green stone, six feet long, twenty-two inches wide and twenty-eight inches high. For centuries it was supposed to be of jade from some mysterious source in China. It was broken in halves by Russian soldiers under the delusion that it was valuable. Some rude surgeon has attempted to conceal the fracture with plaster of paris painted green to match the stone. In several places the paint has chipped off. The sides of the cenotaphs are covered with inscriptions testifying to the goodness and the glory of Ttmour. They ate written in Arabic characters, the most artistic of any alphabet, and lend themselves to decoration. At the head of the cenotaph is a little marble shrine or altar fof burning incense, a miniature reproduction of the tomb, so discolored by smoke as to testify that the memory of Tamerlane has not perished. Pilgrims come here from every part of the Mohammedan world. The most prominent of the other cenotaphs is that of Mis-Seid-Bei k. a mullah brought from Afghanistan by Tamerlane as a sort of chaplain, who accompanied him on all his campaigns and exercised a grtat influence over him. The guide told us that he was "an intimate friend." Another is the tomb of Tamerlane's prime minister, who served him for eighteen years The remaining two are for his sons who died before him and were buried here as soon as the mausoleum was finished. Bodies Under Big: Stones. These cenotaphs are shams. The bodies they represent are in the crypt below, which is reached by a rude stairway. The good mullah who showed us around was careful to caution us pf the danger of slipping upon the damp stone. The sarcophagi occupy precisely the same positions as those above, and are evidently of marble, although the darkness and the flickering of the single andle prevented us from inspecting them closelj. We were impressed with the care and neatness with which the tomb is kept and the grove that surrounds it. The mullahs show a reverence and habits of order that do not appear at the tomb of Timour's wife and other buildings in Samarkand. It is a pity that the Russian government allows these noble monuments to perish for the lack of a little money and a little care. Of course, the Mohammedan world should naturally be held responsible for their preservation, and there ought to be public spirit enough among the adherents of that faith in the city of I Samarkand to restore and preserve them, j Several Mohammedan merchants are j very rich, but they lake no interest what- ; ever. They show neither pride nor pa- , triotism. and allow some of the noblest ; historical structures in the world to fall j in fragments before their eyes. Half Tiling Remains. Nearly one-half of .the tiles which cover the surface of Tamerlane's tomb remain n place. The best preserved are in sheltered places under tlie arches and in the corners, which Indicates that the weather has had much to do with decay. There is a large crack reaching about naif way down the dome which should be mended to. When we called the attention of the mullah to that danger he shrugged his sliouldei-s and remarked iliat Allah was merciful and would protect the dwelling of his servants, which tie invariably neglects to do.
