A Battle With w easels.

Geo. Gray, Of Pine Mills. Pa, went
out in one of the farmers fields one af-
ternoon to haul away some stone piles
that had been lying 10 the field since
lust fall. Ho had thrown on the drag
but few stones from one of the piles
when weasel jumped out of the pile
Gray kicked at the animal as it was
passing him, and tho fierce little brute
turned on tho man and sprang for his
throat. It's teeth closed on Gray's fan
mel shirt at his chest In tearing the
weasel loose it set its teeth into Gray's
arms tearing his flesh down for three
inches. The taste of blood seemed 10
increase the fury Of the weasel, and
Gray had all he could do to keep il from
springing on his throat. He at last
succeeded III stunning the weasel by
kick, and was about TO hurry to the
house to have his wounds dressed, when
six others weasels, one after the other,
trooped from the stone pile and made a
combined attack on Gray. They swarm
ed upon him. biting and tearing his
flesh on the legs, arms and body. Fear
ing for his life, Gray turned and He'd
followed by the weasels, which chased
him clear to the house, over half a milo
away, inaicting still further wounds with
their sharp teeth. Gray's shouts for
help brought son Of his employer and
another man out Of barn, where they
were thrashing, and the two ran TO
Gray's aid. Even these reinforcements
did not daunt the weasels. and before
they were routed, which was not until
three of them were killed, they had in
flcted many uglcy wounds on their foes,
aud tho three men were covered with
blood from head TO foot.

THE TEMPLE OF JERUSALEM.

The most famous and to me the mos
interesting relic of an ancient building
is the foundation of the temple of Jeru
salem. Titus, the Roman general, de-
stroyed the temple of the Jews when he
captured Jerusalem. believe that he
would have destroyed the foundation OF
the temple, if it had been possible. But
it was built for durability. and will stanC
for thousands of years to come. The
temple covered large area, and not q
vestige OF it was left. When | visited
Jerusalem, naturally / was anxious tC

the guides carried lanterns. 1t consists
of many pillars of marble and stone
supporting groined arches. At once
the massiveness and indestructability Of
the foundation struck me. Thousands
Of huge pillars in every direction be-
wilder the beholder. In those days,
there was no mortar, no cement used in
building, and the marble was Joined to.
gether in way that moderns have moi
been able to initiate. On part of this
foundation, there has been built q
mosque, called the Haram-not harem
Il llO 1ldl all 10 OllS vi viz lllOob DSouSi-
full structures l have ever seen. 1t is
built of all kinds of stone, and is finished
most artistically in pure oriental archi-
tectural style. The beauty ofthis build
ing to me consists in the effects of the
light upon the interior walls and pillars.
1t is impossible to describe the soft light
pouring in on one side, and then diff
ferent shade, few yards distant, Civ
ing strong cantrast, and, as it were,
intoxicating the eye with prismatic eff
fects. As to the city Of Jerusalem, it is
filthy, dirty and Disseminating in many
respects. The streets are narrow and
tortuOus. One would think, from read-
ing about Jerusalem, that it was large
city when Titus captured it, but the old
walls, partly standing, show that it was
small. Buildings are going up outside
Of the walls, and old Jerusalem is left
as it was as much as possible. There
are some ruins in the city connected
with history, that will ever make it a
place of interest to the Christian world.
The scenes once enacted there and what
followed, have a sacredness about them
that neither time nor civilization can

sELF-CONDENiNED.

1t has often been noticed that Grimm.
ais plan their misdeeds with reasonable
skill and cunning, only to betray them
selves by the most stupid folly after they
have rendered themselves liable to the
penalties of the law. 1t is probable, in
most cases, that the burden of guilt is
more than their nervous systems can
bear. Mrs. May brick, Southern wom-
an by birth. but a descendant of a prom
inent family of Portland, Me-, has just
been convicted at Liverpool, of poison
ing with arsenic her husband, wealthy
Fnglishman, and has been sentenced to
death. The scientific evidence In the
case was somewhat doubtful, the experts
differing as to the fact whether the man
died from arsenic or ordinary inflamma-
ton of the stomach. He was known
also to be consumer of the drug, which
might account for the discovery of traces
in the liver. Mrs. Maybrick, however,
intrusted letter to her little child to
put in the office. 1t was dropped and
picked up. 1t proved to be addressed
10 man with whom she had criminal
relations, to whom she predicted her
husbands speedy death at time when
the doctors expected his recovery. She
was known to have given the patient
medicine about this time, and her
prophecy soon came true. The wretched
woman confesses her unfaithfulness but
denies that she is murderess. Local
public sentiment is strongly in her favor,
but, if we may judge from the meager
reports received by cable, there are
strong reasons for deeming her guilty.
However this may be, what greater folly
could she have committed than to write
snch a letter and intrust it in such ire
sponsible hands at such critical point
of her plot, if guiltyP If she is innocent
of murder, she furnished a proof Of her
infdelty that ruined her reputation
forever and furnished the prosecution

offense. She is literally holden with the
cords of her sins, -Wdtchman.
