many and II we may credit the report
OF newspapers friendly to Judaism,
influential moneyed men Of the old
imperial capitalize headquarters Of
German Jews, have given it tneiI
substantial support. The originators
endeavor to prove that the undertak.
ing Is by no means rs inpracticsble as
1t at first sight seems, and remind
their iellow-creedmen that 1t Is what
they pray for-if they pray at all
three OF four times every day-viZ: IN
the "Shemoneh Esroch," IN theft
noon and evening, and, In fict, Ia
every prayer sanctioned by their law.
Moreover, they interpret the Bible
passage, tsReturn to me and I will re
turn to yOu,o as meaning literally
! that, en- the Jews returning 20 Jerusa
lem, the Lord, and with Him power
and prosperity, will return to them.
The Chiesgo fire has demonstrated
the mistake, now.so general, Of con.
structing bank vaults, and vaults In
closing iron safes intended to protect
valuables, money and papers from hre,
inside the main walls Of buildings,
where, in case OF fire, they 7 certain
to be surrounded By fame and heat.
The safe place for a vault Is outside
the wall of the building to which II
belongs, either under the sidewalk
and street, in front, or under q vacant
space in the rear, where It will be sur
rounded with dirt on top, bottom and
three of the sides, and protected, on
the side Of the building, by a separate
wall of its own, outside the founda-
ton wall Of the building, the entrance
to be guarded by double iron doors,
with an air space between them. Such
a vault Is really FIRE proof. In ease OF
fire ii may be stored full of valuable
goods from the building. The falling
walls and debris will only help pro-
tect it; whereas a vault under a build
ing may make destruction surer by
inviting the deposit of bucks and val
uables with a false promise of security,
only to restore them In the form Of
ashes.
TIE gardens of Holland are noted
for their exquisite beauty. Summer
houses Wreathed in vines and bloom
ing with flowers are scattered at in
tervals over the grounds. The sheen
Of their brilliant iris at a distance is
like a fash OF gold, or vivid as the
fiery glare of the sun. No matter how
small may be the plat of ground, it is
suretO be converted into flower par
terres and fanciful designs replete with
beauty and elegance. Some quaint
name like "The Abode OF Love- or
"Heart's Rest,p denote the influence
and effect of these little garden patch
es of the Hollanders. Seated In the
shade Of clustering vines, loIling in
his bower of roses, the owner idles the
summer hours away, drinking In
sweet drafts Of perfume laden afr, or
letting fancy trip golden footed
through the howery mazss. How
few such places are here in our land of
flowers. Yet every homestead could
be made like unto them. The Persian
viole, and the pure acacia glow in onr
war; sunshine, and the roses and the
magnolia are native to Southern soil.
Not even the gardens of Gul could be
more beautiful than ours, while the
lawns could be redolent with perfumes
sWeeter than those of Afaby.

have deliberately considered, when /
say that the great mining interests,
the real wealth of the western States
and territories, as immense as It has
been estimated, lies untouched and
UNEMPLOYED to this day. Every day
new mines are being discovered in
localities that are supposed to be bar

day some new or less expensive me-

out. Since the completion Of the Pa

mills into destitute mining regions at

the earth's surface in California, and
other gold producing States, which
cannot be had for the lack Of water,
but will SION be obtained by assOciat-
