In Palestine and Jerus slem He Is an Intol-
cradle Nuisance.
One of the earliest convictions i'm
pressed upon the mind of the traveller
to Palestine is that the Turk is nuis-
ance. The gigantic absurdity, to call it
nothing more, of leaving all these holy
places, the center of veneration to all
Christendom, in Mohammedan hands,
produces natural feeling of ton,
which is constantly freShened and re-
vived by some vexatious regulation or
piece of official red-tapeism, causing
the most peaceable pilgrim to regret
and consider seriously the advisability
of preaching crusade himself on his
re turn from the parts of the infdel It
is sufficient to talk with any resident
who has ever had any serious business
with that hopeless Government-espec-
tally those who are trying to in
troduce, any kind of progress or
improvement in Palestine-to find
good solid foundation for this
feeling against the Turkish rulers;

the first place, the unspeakable Turk
occupying for his own purposes the site
of the Temple, and raising beautiful
buildings thereupon for his own wor-
ship. This, we consider, is bad enough,
: but when he comes to celebrating his
own religious festivities there. and con-
sequently excluding all but Moha am
,medans from the whole area during the
time that we are at Jerusalem, the
enormity is still more remarka ble
This is not even coincidence. The
benighted paynim does not want for
worldly wisdom, and having no conf
dence whatever in the doctrine of
peace on earth and good will toward
man, as understood by enthusiastic pill
grims, he has established feast of his
own which attracts sufficient number
of Mohamm edans to counterbalance the
Christians To these latter the whole
of the Haram-esh-Sheri is closed, and
many poor pilgrims who can not afford
to stay long at Jerusalem are obliged to
go away without having seen the place
of the Temple, very real hardship to
some of them. Spectator.

BEHIND THE TIMES.
The TaIIow Candle Still Reigns Supreme
In Old England.

The Tal1ow Candle Still Reigns Supreme
In Old England.
The English are slow to adopt new
ideas. Strange as it may seem, the
people are still using tailow candles all
over the country. They didn't know
what kerosene was in Warwick and
Blackwell. They had never used it. AT
the Warwick Arms and Charing Cross
hotels in London we had to GO to our
rooms with one tallow candle, and sit
with it, too, or pay sixpence for an extra
one. After writing by our splendid
kerosene lamps in America this trying
to write by the light of tallow candles
is something dreadful. 1t is going back
to barbarism.
At Oxford [ got fairly exasperated,
and calling the porter l asked him if he
couldn't go out and buy me kerosene
lamp.
"What be that there?' he asked in
amusem emit.
'.Why. something to burn--to give a
good light" 1 said.
"Lor'. yeas. I do know whar to find
that their" and off he started. But
what do you think the fool brought me?
Why, six tallow candles! Light them!
Why of course | did, and if you'd seen
me trying to write with eight tallow
candles in a row you would ave taken
my table for Catholic altar and the
writer for bnld-headed monk.
In London they are just beginning to
use -kerosence a little. They call it
parafine. but it has the same old Oil
City smell. One snuff convinced me
that had struck oil The smell was
pleasanter to me than the perfume of
flowers 1t was a real good old home
smell 1t was the first time that ever
thoroughly enjoyed the smell of coal
OIL The dealer told nae that he sold it
at sixteen to twentyfour cents per gah
Ion. They have no splendid lamps to
burn it in yet but they will come in
time. They are now burning it in
small lamps without chimneys in many
instances. There is a field for some
enterprising American to come over
here and introduce some good lamps.
Candles are sold here at eight to ten
cents per pound; very cheap. indeed, ii
you want fame without light. but
dear enough If you have to stand eight
in a row to write letter by. They tell
me the French are burning our kerosene
very generally and that they have very
beautiful lamps.-London Letter.
