JERUSALEM is growing. Palestine
is improving throughout its borders.
Great numbers Of Jews from various
parts of the earth are gathering in the
old promised land" and are rebuild
ing the City of the Great King. The
Rothschilds. some years agn, loaned
the Sultan of Turkey large sum of
money to enable him to carry on war
against Russia. and they took a
mortgage on the whole country of
Palestine to secure the debt. It is
not likely that Turkey will ever be
able 10 pay the amount borrowed,
and it is therefore probable that these
wonderful men, the Rothschil Is, who
are Israelites, may, at no distant day,
become the owners in fee Of that
country. 1t would be startling
incident in the history of the human
family if the Jews should return to
their old homes aud re.establish
themselves as a Nation. and yet it
seems probable, They are tie CLOS
on people Of the Great God. They
carried the ark OF the covenant, and
preserved the records for many gen.
erations. For centuries they have
been scattered all over the face of
the earth, prosecuted and denied the
right of civilized men, aud still
through all their misfortunes and
calamities they have preserved their
identity as people and saved their
religion from destruction. And
now they are turning their eyes
longingly to the promised land"
once more. IL they can only agree
among themselves Israel will once
more be great house among the
nations Of the earth. The Jews have
sense enough, energy enough, mon
ey enough to re establish the Nation,
to re,bu Id the city of Jerusalem and
to erect another Temple to the liv-
ing God which will even excel the
wonderful Building conceived by
King David and constructed by
Solomon. These things may all |
come to pass very soon, for The jews
are a miraculous people, and the
may not be done with |
them yet.

AN occasional Outcropping of the
"true inwardness" of Washington
city social life shows that what is
termed good society" or "high life"
there is the most corrupt upon the
face Of the earth. Our Nations cap
ital is fast gaining name for licen-
tiousness and gross immortality
which will eclipse that of the capital
city of France. The disgusting ex-
pose of the conduct of Senator Ros,
coe Conkling aud the wife of ex.Sen-
ator Sprague is only an index of
fashionable life at that wicked city.
The honest and virtuous portion of
the American people would stand
aghast if they knew what was going
on in their capital, add they would
feel like setting the city on fire 10 a
thousand places and reducing it TO
ashes. As The Nation becomes rich
er and richer and more and more
powerful, corruption, liceniiousness
and vice of every character increases
there and becomes more brazen and
unblushing. A man with a rotten
heart cannot have a healthy body.
Neither can Nation with a thor
oughIy corrupt capital have healthy
States. There must be a great NOR

Among the Wall Street Brokers

Some OF the Southwestern visitors in
the stock market in New York are odd
birds. One of these, a tall, sun'burnt
man, with a big fat hat and an outland-
ish suit of clothes, looking altogether
like q careless farmer with a Dig mort
gage on his farm, dropped in at a bro
ker's Office yesterday morning. he
carried under his arm a bundle, roughly
done up in a newspaper and tied with
cotton twipe. Addressing a clipper
young clerk at the counter the battered
farmer asked Can l leave this bun
die here a little while0 It's so heavy /
don't like to carry it around with me-
MY friend, said the lively young
man, we don't do a storage business
here. We are in the brokerage bust
ness
Il know said the old man but I'm
afraid 1 might lose it. You keep it for
me a little while
All right, said the clerk. The old
man went out, and young nan threw
the bundle under the counter.
At about one o'clock the old man
came back. DO you sell railroad bonds
here9' he asked. I'VE do said the
clerk; lots of 'em. Want to buy someP'
and he smiled inwardly. No. the old
man replied; Il want to sell some.'-
The clerk wondered which pocket the
old man would draw his bonds from and
how small the lot would be, and then
asked him where they we're. They're
in that bundle l left here he said, and
the clerk pickedit up very much more
carefully than he had thrown it down.
The old man took out a big jack-knife,
cut the white cotton twine, unrolled the
bundle and discovered st. Louis and
San Francisco second mortgage bonds
of the par value of 500, 900. present
market value about sixty cents on the
dollar, making the bundle that was
kicked under the counter worth abodt
$50, 600. The clipper young clerk
didn't say any more about not doing a
storage business, Int took the old mans
instructions as to the sale Of the bonds.

Boomerang Joke.

Capt. Broughton, OF Portland, tells a
story as follows Some time in '46 there
were a number Of army officers stop
ping at a hotel in Washington. Among
them wal a Captain Emerson. There
was also a Captain Jones, who was a
frst,rate fellow, a good officer and very
pompous. Emerson and Jones used to
have a good deal Of joking together at
the table and elsewhere. One day at
the dinner table, when the dining hall
was well filed, Capt. Jones finished his
dinner first, got up and walked almost
to the dining-hall door when Emerson
spoke to him in a loud voice and said /:
'Halloo, captain, SEQ here l want to
speak to you a minute The captain
turned and walked back to the table
and bent over him, when Emerson vhis-
pered :; I wanted to ask you how far
you would have gone if / had not spo-
ken to you The captain never chang
ed a muscle, but Strengthened up and
put his fingers into his vest pocket and
said, in n voice loud enough for all to
hear him Captain Emerson, l don't
know of a mai. in the world ] had rather
lend Eve dollars to than you, but the
fact is, / haven't a cent with me to-day
and turned on his heel and walked away.
Emerson was the color of half a dozen
rainbows, but he had to stand it. He
never heard the last Of IL, and it cost
him more than ten dollarst 10 treat on IL,

Death Following the Use Of a Lancet.

The Chicago Times remarks: There
was a very queer case on the west side
on yesterday which is well worthy Of
record. 1t will be remembered that
some two weeks ago the Times contain.
cd an account Of a row at Harvard, ILL.,,
in which two or three Chicago men par
ticipated, AZ the time John Conroy,
thirty.Aye years old, was wounded
slightly, it appeared, in the neck. The
ball was not extracted, and on yesterday
Oonroy dropped into the oflce Of DR..
Lee and asked that il be removed. The
doctor, as requested, began an opera
ton, which was followed by a regular
stream Of blood, which kept up until
the patient died, which event happened
within fge minutes.
The following is the history Of the
case gathefed' last night from a physi-
clan who aided DR.. Fenger in the post
mortem: DR.. Z. W. Lee, a surgeon in
the Cook comfy hospital, in operating
upon John Csnroy, was 80 unfortunate
as to lose his patient. The patient was
shot below the right eye, the bullet tax
ing a downward course, and lodged
deep in the neck-in the wall of the in.
ternal carotid artery, The blood esoap-
ing from the artery burrowed its way up
the side Of the throat under the mem
brane into the roof OF the mouth and
formed what is known as an aneurism-
or in common p~arlance a tumor of clot-
ted blood.
The patient had been doing we'll, was
steadily improving and was able TO be up
and about. He experienced, however,
great difficulty in talking and in eating,
and became convinced that the swelling
which had formed in the roof of the
mouth contained the bullet. 1t appears
that neither at the time of the accident
nor since has it been thought safe or
necessary TO probe for the ball, 80 that
the surgeon, from the statements Of the
patient, from the swelling in the roof Of
the mouth, and from the pain and diff
Guilty experienced in eating and talking,
considered it not improbable that the
ball lay where the patient indicated, in
the swelling in the roof Of the mouth
The doctor decidedto lance the swelling.
The first cut was followed by the pres.
nee OF a few clots OF blood.
A deeper cut was followed by olotted
blood, and then there gushed out a great
stream Of bright a~rterial blood. The
doctor Immediately realized the danger,
and attempted to staunch the flow of
blood with a napkin. The patient,
however, either becoming panic strick-
en- or choked by the great flow of blood,
became unmanageab able and bit upon the
physicians fngers so that he was COM
PEELED to withdraw his hand from the
wound. The patient was altogether be.
yond control. There was a person who
had accompanied him to the doctors
Office, but at the sight of such q dread
full stream of blood he fed. There was
no one to help control the man. In two
mil utes he expired.
