Pool of Bethesda.

Following is the report to the State
Department at Washington, Of Consul
Gilman, at Jerusalem, of the discovery
OF the Bethesda. sss@a
''Of the more remarkable discoveries
in the ancient city during the year that
of the Bethesda is OF paramount inter
est and Importance. As is well -known.
the Birket Israel has in the past been
considered as the site of the Bethesda,
but the excavations of the Algerine
monks under the ruined rear of the Cru
sader Church of St Anne have gradu-
latter locality. This was strengthened
by the discovery of a rock hewn pool
containing water beneath three success
i've structures. Subsequent excavations
revealed the remains of two tiers of five
arched pOrches, the lower tier being in
the pool. The intelligent labors of the
monks who are in charge of the property
have been further rewarded by the re-
cent discovery of another pool contain
ing a good supply of water to the west
ward of that first discovered, the entire
agreeing with descriptions Of the Be-
thesda as given by the fathers of
the Church and Christian pilgrims
and writers as early as the fourth cen
the FIVE narehes to those mentioned In
the Gospel Of st. John w., - will not
escape notice. Steps cut in the rock lead
down into the water. An ancient Chris
tian church, In ruins, surmounts the en-
tire. The remains of the upper tier of
porches extend above the pool at right
angles from the north wall of the crypt
beneath the church, in which the apse,
at the east end, though dilapidated, is
still distinctly defined.
"On clearing away the debris that
choked the fifth porch westward of the
apse, all these discoveries eliminated in
fpascp upon the plaster Oh The wall in
the rear. This discovery was made just
before Easter, or about April 10th last.
The fresco represents an angel as if de-
scending into and troubling the water,
which latter ID depicted by conventional
zigzag and wavy lines of an olive green,
shaded with black more suggestive of
Egyptian hieroglYphics than of modern
art, and surrounding the figure on
every side. The right hand of the angel
was shown as uplifted, but this has been
carefully destroyed probably by the Mos
lens, after their habits, in the early days
of their power. So, ALSO the face of the
angel has been batteredso as to be CON-
pletely obliterated.s The glory or nimbus

The edge of the pool appears to be indi-
Gated by broad ,red line inclosing the
painting and having an occasional rec
tangular projection into the water, per-
haps representing steps or the piers fer
the porehes. On the east of this fifth
barreled arch (the wall extending at
right angles are the remains of another

No Alien Landowners.

Representative Oates, of Alabama.
from the committee on the judiciary, re-
ported to the House the bill to prohibit
aliens from acquiring title to, or owning
lands within the United States. An
elaborate report accompanied the bill.
IL says: Your committee ascertained.
with reasonable certainty, that certain
noblemen of Europe principally English
men, have acquired, and now own, in
the aggregate, about 81 100000 acres of
land within the United States This
alien, nonresident ownership will, in
Che course OF time, lead to a system of
landIOrdlsm incompatible with the best
interests and free institutions of the
United States. The bill proposes to
place these aliens under the disabilities
OF the civil law, as to all future attempts
TO acquire lands in this country 1t de-
ciares all foreign born persons, who have
not been naturalized, incapable of taking
the title to lands anywhere within the
United States, except a leasehold for not
exceeding five years. 1t also contains a
provision which will compel alien land
owners to cease to be such, or to become
citizens Of the United States within 10
years.
MIR. Oates ought to take few kinder
garten lessons. He is way behind the
times, We saw a letter few days ago
from Virginian living in the North,
suggesting that the natives of the State
ought to band together to keep our
lands from passing into the bands of
Northern people, to prevent them from
owning the South. Mr.. Oates idea is
in keeping with this. This is not the
view Of the progressive people Of the
South. We want all the Intelligent i'm
migration ana capital we can get. If
IN the race for business supremacy the
natives are left, let it be SO. But we do
not fear this. We believe tho Southern
people will be equal to all demands and
emergencies, and will hold their own
with any who may come amongst them.
We want English and Northern capt.
tai and men, and the more of them the
better,

The amount Of sickness prevailing i'm
the city at present IL very unusual, and
the physicians never had their hands 30
full before. The grip II. of course, the
most prevalent disease, and those who
are so unfortunate as tn become it's vic
tim now experience more severe attacks
than those who had IL earlier.
AT st. AIMS hospital the upper floor,
consisting of twenty-six beds, are all full
and the lower portion of the building is
also crowded, there bcidg eleven patients
there. IL has been necessary to turn "a
great many applicants away from the
hospital, owing To it's crowded condition.
The sisters were careful, however,, to
turn away only those who were fully able
to pay their way. There are only two
cases of pneumonia at the hospital at
present. Il. former and a Mr.. Cunnis.
who, although dangerously sick at one
time, are now convalescent. II Il thonRht
don has also just recovered from u
severe attack of typhoid fever, and
will also he out i'm u short
time. There are seven cripples i'm the
hospital at the present time, representing
three broken legs and several serious
fractures, while one has a badly scalded
limb. All are nearly well and able To get
around with the use of ~crutches, and IL Is
quite easy tn tell when dinner Is ready by
the unusual and peculiar Noise made by
their crutches as they proceed through
during the last ten days, that of Mr.. Gale.
Several patients are suffering from the
grip, and they are very i'll, requiring great
care. Under the careful attention of the
sisters, however, il Is quite prbable no
fatal cases will result.
