When the Grand Old Nan Dared TO Say
"Must" to the Queen.
A tradesman in st. James street has a
fine collection of Napoleana. of which
intend to tell you one of these morn
ings. This tradesman is dealer in spec
tacles and eyeglasses, and his shop is
patronized by the best people in Lon
don. 1t is interesting to hear him tell
OF notables with whom he has had deal
ings. Gladstone has traded with him
many years, and the man tells of an ex-
perience which illustrates the thought
fulness of the Grand Old Man" One
time this shopkeeper had a visitor in
the person of rich uncle who had come
IN from the country to see the sights,
and of course the House of Commons
was one of the sights which the uncle
was most anxious to see. 1t occurred to
the nephew that he might, without pre-
Stunning too far, apply to Mr.. Gladstone
for ticket of admission to the gallery
Of the House; it was true that Mr.. Glad
stone was Premier, and should hardly
be bothered with trif1ing matter of
this kind, but it was also true that the
twenty years business relations be-
tween the Premier and the tradesman
justified to degree the hope that the
request might be granted. So my friend
dispatched polite note to the Premier.
The next day happened to be Sunday,
but in the morning there came a hearty
knock at the tradesman's door. It was
Gladstone, who, on his way to church,
had called to leave the ticket of admis-
sion for which his humble townsman
had asked.

ABOUT JERUSALEM.
Facts Concerning the Present Condition Of
the Holy City.

Facts Concerning the Present Condition OF
the Holy City.
DR.. Gilman, the lecturer, resided for
fifteen months in Jerusalem and his
hearers received the full benefit of his
observation and experience in that
sacredly historical region.
Said the speaker: There are two sea-
sons-dry and wet. The dry or summer
period is of eight months duration, and
although the heat is not excessive, there
is no rainfall in that time. The wet
season is divided into three seasons-one
of light rain and two in which the fall
of rain is heavy and uninterrupted. The
spring season is really December and
the time of harvest is March and April.
The houses are lined with eave-troughs,
and every square inch of space which
can be occupied with some arrangement
for holding water is thus utilized. The
water thus secured is kept in cisterns,
and from these reservoirs the people get
their supply during the heated term.
This country presents its most favorable
aspect to tourists during April, it being
a veritable garden Of flowers. The
choicest and most valuable specimens of
the floral kingdom in this country grow
wild in Palestine, the roads from Jeru-
salem to Damascus being lined with
them.
Extensive precautions for the preser-
walton of health are necessary here,
great changes in temperature occurring
from noon to midnight. In May and
October the sirocco blows off the deserts,
its popularity lying in the fact of its
always lasting an odd number of days
three, five, seven or nine. This is the
most trying time of the year, the Syrian
or malaria fever being most prevalent.
The lepers' colony consists of few
miserable huts. A splendid modern
hospital has been provided for them, but
they refuse to live in it, preferring to
beg.
The camel, which is POLITICALLY termed
the ship of the desert, is literally the
freight train here, all commodities used
being brought on camels' backs from
Joppa-
Jerusalem has a great aqueduct sys-
tenn, centuries old, the water supply
coming from Solomon's pools, which the
speaker declared, were the handiwOrk
Of solomon. There are five aqueducts
and their course is secret. In ancient
war times their enemies were thus de-
prived of their use.
The Syrians are not all ignorant, the
American Presbyterian College having
elevated them greatly through educa-
tional influences. They are naturally
smart and quick, and come nearer to the
general ideal of natures noblemen than
any other nation, being graceful, gentle
manly and splendidly proportional.
The city is only growing toward the
west. The Consuls are erecting fine
residences in this direction. The ten
Protestant Consuls have built a good
church and mission and have an English
Lord Bishop. The Germans have three
colonies in Palestine-at Jericho, Joppa
and Mt Carmel.-Detroit Free Press.
