THR PARTY.

Tor nothing so tests the quality Of =
man Us u trip of this character. Moth
ing so tends to take the sweetness out
Of ones disposition and to develop the
sour qualities as a journey where one is
obliged to rough it most of the time and
to run the gauntlet Of feas and bed
bugs.
Six Of us came together last winter in
Berlin, representing Princeton, Yale,
Boston and Northwestern universities.
We were united in desire to visit Pal
estine. We had ample time to study up
the entire trip apd make our plans.
March Il found MS rentlezvouseda Mt Cairo,
Egypt, some having come down through
Greece, others through Italy. Passing
over to lsmailye we went up the Suez
canal to Port Said and there took the
steamer Austria, of the Austrian Lloyd
line, for Beirut.
The next morning Sunday, March
COY found us rolling in the sea off the
coast of Palestine, at Jaffa. We sighted
land at six o'clocll-a low coast line
with the mountains of Judea in the dis
tancc. At eight o'clock Jaffa was but
four miles away and we could see the
surf breaking on the rocks. Here it is
that most tourists begin the Palestine
trip. Boats soon put off from the shore
freight boats and boats representing
the various tourist agencies. counted
thirty-siX boats, pulled by stalwart
Arab sailors dressed in their variegatcd
costumes. 1t was a picturesque sight to
SEQ these boats racing for the ship,
rising and falling on the waves, the
oarsmen pulling until the perspiration
rolled and timing the strokes to some
Arab chant-lilSc music. Reaching the
ship they poured over the sides with a
shout. and soon the tourists were seen
descending into the boats, each held
firmly in the grasp of two brawny boat
men to prevent him dropping into the
sea. Gradually each boat secured its
passengers and pulled away for the
shore. Jaffa rises from the shore alb
ruptly, a savage reef of black rocks
standing out at some distance. making
very dangerous landing. No wonder
old Sacwulf saw his comrades perish
before his eyes as they were dashed on
these rocks.
The next morning Mt six o'clock we
were at Beirut, the largest and finest
city in Syria. Here we arranged for
our Palestine outfit. We succeeded in
securing guide, Maltese, Filippo dc
Bono, who contracted TO furnish us
with horses, saddles, etc; TO provide
provisions. sleeping accommodations
to go where we wished him, and to dc
all this for the sum of two dollars and
twenty cents day for each person
Filippo was not u regular draSoman
He could speak Greek, Arabic. Italian
and English: had worked for British
officers in the Soudan, and was alto

fellow We were obliged to test oul
horses, examining their feet, theil
backs, putting them through theil
PAGES, discarding the uncertain ones
We finally had good set of tou.,ll

CINCINNATI Ohio, Dec 30-The Lane
seminary trouble is approaching a crisis
1t Is not impossible that resort will soon
be had to the civil courts for settle
ment OF the difficulty growing out Of the
Smith case. There is no doubt that a
large number of the trustees are favora
bly, disposed toward Professor Smith
The executive cOmmitree is almost q
unit in his favor On the other hand
fifteen Of the trustees have not yet ex
pressed themselves in the matter, and il
is on th' ir support that the conservative
opposition to the professor depends for
majority.
There is possibility that the board of
boldly decide to espouse the standard of
higher criticism, and to retain Professor
Smith in his present position.
Such defiance of the Judgment of the
preshytery will doubtless result in an ul
innate appeal to the civil courts by The
opposition. II is claimed that the char
ter Of the institution under which the
endowment was secured. provides that nc
one shs serve as professor In the sem
mary who is not a member OF the Pres
byterian church in good standing
Professor Smith has lost his good
standing through suspension and the al
legation is that should he be retained il
the professors chair the heirs Of the peo
pie who endowed the institution woulC
then be at liberty to enter the courts anc
to recover the money.
The conservative Presbyterians. it il
said, furnished most of the endowmDn 1T
and their natural policv will be to re cove
the cash if liberalism is to predominate
