More jews in Pal sine Than Returns cd
From Baoylonisn Captivity.
From the Net0 York SUM-
There are now over 100 900 jews in the
Holy Land. The Jewish population there
at present lie larger than IL has been at any
other time since the end of the first century
OF the Christian era. Nearly four-ffths Of
them all have gone thither from other coun-
tries within the past few years, and they
have been going thithsr shis year more
steadily than ever before. 10 former times
ouly q small number Of Jews were per.
mitted TO live In the country; out the re-
strictions upon their settlements in IL aud
upon their ownership OF land have been re-
moved, and they are now ct liberty TO
repeople it and take possession of il The
number OF Jews who have returned to
Palestine during the dozen wears In which
they have been free TO enter has bseu greater
than the number who returned after the
Babylonian captivity twenty-f -four centuries
ago.
In tia city of Jerusalem itself, according
to report of the British consul there. the
Jewish population is now fully 40 900, and a
large part of the real estate In and around
the city is IN jewish hands. The number of
synagogues, schools of learning. hospitals
aud other public institutions are constantly
increasing; the water supply has been i'm
proven new SLT6ets nave DeSu Op0neQ De-
yOnd the walls; telegraph and electric lights
have been introduced; several factories
have b on introduced. and the new railroad
to Jaffa has already stimulated the activity
OF the population in various ways. "Pales-
tine will soon be ready for the Jewish race"
says the Rev. DR.. Kelt of the Episcopal
church OF Jerusalem in letter to the Lon
don Times.
The reports from the northern parts of
Palestine are favorable. T ere is activity
at Acre and alo z the route to Damascus.
The wheet-raisers there are rejoicing IN the
prospect OF finding markets for their crops
SO are the raisers of olives and other fruits.
The soil in that region is well adapted to
the growth of cotton.
A number of important public works have
been undertaken in various parts OF the
country berwes the river Jordan and the
Mediterranean; and we hear of yet other
| projects in which the Hebrew capitalists OF
! England and France are prepared to invest
| all the money that may be needed.
1t will undoubtedly take long time to
regenerRte Palestine; but we infer from the
news received from Jerusalem that the
work of regeneration has been begun. IL
| must take good many years TO give the
| predoni ance to the Jewish element In Pail
| estins, but If the number Of jews there
! should increase for the next ten years at the
rate ct which 1t has increased during the
past ten years, the Jewish population in the
Holy Land viii run over 900, 900 very
sOon after the opening Of the twentieth
| century.
The shutting out from this country Of che
Jewish - we'll as other European immi-
grants has alresiy had an influence upon the
Palssttnisn movement.

A FIERCE BATTLE wIra GEESE.
Peculiar Experience of Tioga Mush-
room Hunter.

Peculiar Experience of a Tioga Mush-
room Hunter.
Fsom the Philadelphia Times.
An interesting and rather peculiar battle
was witnessed yesterday morning by a
number of persons who were driving along
the old Summer road, In the Twenty-eighth
ward. In field lying on the north side of
the old thoroughfare and east of Harris
Bellevue truck farm, an aged German was
gathering mushrooms and while peering
about the pasture for the toothsome fungi,
in a stopping attit de, a flock Of "Gander
Hill" geese sbrutted under a post and rail
fence from neigh boring pond and marched
with their necSs extended at full length
toward the stranger, who, at first, paid no
attent on to their kissing, but continued
every now and again to reach down and
pick a m Ishroom.
He soon learned to his sorrow that the
geese were considerably above the average
flock for bold persistencY and determined
fight. One old gander acted as leader, and,
after marshaling his forces into position
led on to the fight by boldly approaching the
intruder and striking him a stunning blow
on the nose. Before he could recover from
the effect two OF the geese, one from each
side few at bis face, each taking hold Of
an ear and holding GU with a bull-doG-llke
face with their clipped wings
The sharp points Of the cut feather stems
brought the blood from his cheeks aud fore
head at every flap. ''Meil cot in heimell"
he cried, as he jumped and Trsnced around
like mad, wildly ResticulatiDg and mutter-
ing cries and curses In German.
RESCUED BY A rAssER-BY.
Two others of his feathery assailants few
upon his back and began pecking him on the
head and neck, while the others took hold
upon the logs Of bis trousers and his coat
tails and tuxged till they fairly dragged hin

the poor fellows feet sank In the slippery
mud aud he fell backward in the slime A
man 10 one OF the passing wagons hurried
to his asslstance armed with bean pole
snatched from the truck gardens. He ar
rived Just In tins 10 prevent the enragsd
gsess from killing their Victim.
Even the bio We from the tough cedar bean
pole for a time had no effect on the geese
and II was not until Ave OF them, with their
nscks broken, lay quivering on the grass
that the poor old German, his face co Yered
with blood aud his clothing with mud, could
be delivered.
He was led out TO the old summer road.
placed in the wagon and kindly driven to
bis home In Tiogs. The only reason that
can be given for the unus lal behavior OF
the geese is that rag picker who resembled
