The Fellaheen of Palestine.

The whole impression left in my mind
by what saw of the fellaheen in Palestine
was that here was an ancient and historic
people-perhaps l should rather say the
descendants of three such peoples, the sons
of Canaan, of Aram and of Ishmael-sink-
ing down into state of mere savagery,
such as that of the least civilized of the
tribes whom Stanley encountered in his
march across Africa.
For this long continued and still con-
tinuing decline of Palestine we must hold
the natives of Palestine partly responsible.
Their weakness may be to some extent the
result of that enervating climate Of theirs,
where Baal, the mighty sun god, still
shows himself as of old a terrible poten-
tate, whitening up the greenness of the
earth and the vital forces of men. But,
whatever the cause, think we must admit
the fact that there is grievous lack of
energy and self reliance among the Syrian
peasants. Accustomed from childhood to
stretch out the hand for backsheesh, and
following in stolid ignorance the same
round of agricultural labors which their
forefathers have trodden for centuries, the
very features in their character which
make them so interesting a study to the
student of Biblical archaeology seem to
make it almost a hopeless task to form
them into an enterprising, progressive,
self governing munity-Contemp

HOW ABOUT THIS?
Contractor Donegan Gives His Side of
the Story.

The following communication explains
itself.
Los ANGELES, August 16, 1890,
To the Herald:
Your "How About This" article in the
HERALD this morning, relating to con-
tract between the city and myself for
the disposal OF the garbage, does not
state the facts, Notwithstanding the in
formation was, as you say, from respon-
sible citizen. About the first of the year
the city advertised in the usual way for
bids for disposing of the city garbage.
Mine being the lowest and best bid l
got the contract. The location for the
works agreed upon was south of Ninth
street, near the river, the most sparsely
settled portion of the city. there pur-
chased seven acres of land for the pur-
pose, but before l had time to build a
crematory, the people owning land in
the vicinity, who had cut their farms
into city lots during boom days, got an
injunction before Judge Van Dyke, who
decided the case i'll my favor. imme-
diately went east and visited all the
principal cities having crematories west
of New YORK, and purchased the best l
could find. During my absence there
was another injunction suit commenced
which is not yet decided, but as soon as
/ am permitted | will erect the crema-
tory, and will give your responsible citi-
zen a job of firing it, for l am sure he is
of the kind who has no business mol
ability to conduct one, and who envies
his more successful neighbor.
In the mean time the garbage is being
disposed of to the satisfaction of all con
cerned, and is costing the city less thar
any city visited in proportion to popu
lation. The garbage service of Denver
Colorado, costs $4,000 a year; popula
ton about 100000.
Respectfully yours, d. F. DoNEGAN.

The Power of Perfume.

A particular perfume will Often recall
those who used it or were associated with
it in days long by, but it IS not often the
result is so tragically romantic as in the
following instance: A highly nervous, SEN
sitive gentleman lost his wife. After in
consolable grief he appeared to be again
taking up his daily life much as usual, but
he suddenly shot himself 1t is said that
upon his table this letter was found: II
had hoped to take courage and go on as be-
fore, but in turning over her drawers and
papers found behind heap of linen a
facon of the perfume she always used. 1
wished to pull out the cork, but in doing
so let the bottle fall, which broke, and
the whole perfume was split on the floor
The scent was everywhere in the house,
followed me like shadow, made me think
she was near and called me"- Here the
letter ceased, and one can understand the
fatal impulse which prompted the poor
husband to his terrible act.-Exchange

When the railroad was built through
Bulgaria about twenty years ago the whole
business of constructing and running it
was in the hands of the English. The con-
tractors habit of looking after everything
personally greatly puzzled the Turks
They could not make out who were in al.
thority. At one time when a construction
train was to be run from a country station
down to Varna local pasha came up to
the man who was dispatching the train
and asked for a passage. The favor was
granted.
Then the official wanted the train to wait
until his baggage arrived After delay
of an hour or so string of fifty bullock
carts appeared with baggage" The Turk
was promptly informed that the train could
not take such a load, and would not take
any part of it. The man in charge ordered
the train to start The pasha was left be-
hind Indignantly threatening to complain
to the manager.
Two DAYS later the Turk was in Varna
inquiring for the superintendent of the
railway. He found his way to the office,
and was announced by servant as Zone
great big pasha, he come see you sare."
1t was not until after the injured pasha
had seated himself that he discovered be-
fore him the very man whom he had come
to complain of. The interview is reported
by the guilty party.
In a rage the Turk turned to his servant,
and said, "Eshek (ass), you have made a
mistake!"
eyes, Effendi, have-but they said this
was the head man of the iron road.'
"Pah, pig, hold your tongue" Then,
coldly turning to me, he said he wished to
speak in private to the manager of the rail
way.
at once asked my assistant to leave the
room, but the pasha stopped him and asked,
"Who is the manager here?" said, II am,
and shall be most happy if can be of SER
vice to you"
The pasha gave low whistle, and then
beginning to grin, said: True? Then
have made a mistake. I called to COM

before yesterday, and was going t6ask you
for your dismissal. What shall do
now?"

Where Mother Is Wrong.

A mother of family has no right to
cease to be a companion to her husband
simply at the dictates of her children OF
course the children will have the measles,
and there will be times when the mother
heart must stand by, night and day But
you are to blame, madam, if you let this
go too far. When my wife is invited by
me to go to concert and she says: "Oh,
dear! Pm too tired. Take Kittie!'' it makes
me mad. 1t hurts. Time was when she
did not refuse my invitation. Didn't she,
only last week, coolly propose that take

when l had proposed to take her DEAR
tired self away and give her rest of two
weeks from all the children. Kittie, in
deed! I'll take the child to Niagara at the
proper time; if don't, why, Niagara will
keep till her husband takes her there on

all this But how can l tell her so? She

her hard lot and break me all up-New

THEY SWAN THE RIVER.
How Walter Vail Brought His Cattle
to California.

Walter L. Vail, wealthy cattle man
of Pima County, Arizona, recently leased
the Warner ranch in San Diego county,
which contains some of the finest graz
ing land in Southern California, for the
purpose of transferring some of his stock
to this state, and entering into COM
petition with the California stock raisers.
After careful consideration of the mat
ter of the expense the transfer ola large
number of cattle by rail must necessarily
entail, he came to the conclusion that
as they had been driven over the Col
orado desert, with more or less success,
before the age of railroads in Arizona,
such a scheme must be perfectly prac-
ticable now. Accordingly, he deter
mined to test the question, and few
months ago started bis brother Edward
upon the trail for California with alarge
herd of cattle. The successful result OF
this drive, which was concluded several
weeks ago conclusively demonstrates that
orado desert with perfect safety and
little risk of loss for lack of water and
feed.
The route followed after leaving
Tucson, was almost parallel with the
LIdck VI tuc NOutlcIH dCluC stS
far as Maricopa, where the cattle were
watered at the railroad tanks. Thence
to ella Bend distance of fifty miles,
the drive was made in two days and a
night, the stock being entirely without
water during that time. Following the
ella River the herd reached the
Colorado river, and here the first diff
Guilty occurred, as it was impossible to
cross except by swimming. The
crossing was finally accomplished, and
the drive was made along the river for
some, twenty miles, thence to Willow
Lake and across to New River, after
which the rest of the distance was
covered without trouble.
The success OF this and other drives
made by John Lang, have caused
several of the leading stockmen of
Arizona to make arrangements for the
establishment of permanent trail to
this state. With this end in view,
plans for the building of ferry boat
across the Colorado river are now under
consideration and the money is already
subscribed for it. This will, if carried
out, be severe blow to the railroads
who have hitherto been able to main
tain their high rates of freight on cat
tie, because stockmen were afraid to
drive across the desert.

A BIG LOSS.
The Expenditures Here of the Army
Headquarters.

The present administration has ordered
the removal of the headquarters of
the military department of Arizona
from this city to Santa Fe. The last
Democratic administration placed the
headquarters here. The inference is
that President Harrison, or Secretary
Proctor. or BOTH do not think that
Southern California deserves very much
consideration. A we'll known citizen
and Republican said of them yesterday
to a HERALD man, "this removal means
a loss of 5000, 900 month to Southern
California. The department flour has
been purchased in Fresno, and the hay
and grain from the south here, and all
the other supplies which Southern Cali
fornia could furnish were bought here.
Now we'are to lose all this trade simply
to satisfy the whim of Secretary Proc
tor. What has Southern California got
from this administration anyway ?
Nothing that anyone knows anything
about. There is another election COM
ing on soon, and if am not mistaken,
this uncalled for slap in the face from a
Republican administration will cost us
good many votes"

To Clean Kid Gloves,

Another method of cleansing kid gloves
is to use naphtha, pouring it into deep
saucer. Put the gloves on the hands, and
dip one hand at time in the saucer, wet
ting the glove thoroughly, then rub it
quickly with soft dry cloth. The rub
bling must be done very quickly or Che
glove will look streaked.
Should there be any spots that were not
removed with the first dipping and rub
bling wet corner of the cloth and rub
the soiled part till it becomes clean.
In using such volatile articles as naphtha,
benzine, chloroform and ether the rubbing
should be done very rapidly, that the stair
may be removed before the liquid dries

Highest Price Ever Paid for Picture.


THERE'S nothing like art as an investment,
if you only know what to buy and when
to sell, says the Pail Mall Budget Here,
for instance, is Meissonier's '1S14." which,
as reported from Paris, was purchased the
other day from M. Delahaute by dealer
for SOC, 900 francs, and Immediately resold
to M. Chauchard, formerly manager of the
Louvre drapery shop, for $4,000 francs.
This amount (e34 ,O00) is not only the high
est price ever given for picture by liv-
ing artist, but in proportion to the size of
the work is the highest price ever given
for any picture by any artist, living or
dead. The Blenheim Raphael in the Ma
tional gallery fetched ETA per square inch;
the Terburg, ga; the tiny Correggio, 500.
But "1S14," which is 80 inches by 20, has
fetched 95S per square inch, thus beating
by 60 the inch Mr.. Ruskin's Nelson
Ter (12 inches by 20), which sold at Chris
ties in 1882 for 5000, or ESQ per square

The grapple plant of the Kalaharia desert
is said to be real vegetable curiosity. In
its general appearance it looks more like a
starfish than a plant, and each ray or arm
is tipped with barbs, which, when fastened
to the wool of sheep, have to be cut out as
the only way of removing them.
