JERUsALRM,s LATEST.

Jerusalem has had a good many ex- periences sincs David fixed his residence there, called 1t "rhe City of Dsvid," trans- ported to 1t the ark of the covenant and built in it an altar to the Lord. It has been place of glory and of grandeur, and of shame and sorrow. It has been besieged, pillased and burned. It has been changed from a holy city to heather city and back to holy city. It has been ruled by the Jews, the Ezy yptians, the Ro- mans, the Psrsians, the Germans and the Turks. And to-day to the Jews, the Christians and the Mohammedans 1t is the seat of many sacred associations.
 It seems little incongrous to consider this oity of fortune and misfortune, of history and romance, of war and destruc- ton, of religion and superstition, in con- nection with @ modern real estate boom. Yet the old oity is just now having that experience to add to its many others. The boom Is most noticeable in land just outside the thickly settled part of the eity. For instance: Two acres sold in 1890 for $250 per acre were sold in 1891 for $750 an acre; 12 acres sold in 1890 for $435 an acre sold in 1892 for $2,17s; seven acres sold in 1886 for $36S an acre sold in 1892 for $6,534; two acres sold in 1886 for $1, 200 an acre sold in 1899 for $s, 900; half an acre sold in 1881 for $200, sold in 1899 for $3, 700; one acrs sold in 1872 for $40 sold in 1892 for 12,00o; two thirds of an acre sold in 1886 for $100 cold in 1891 for $3,6Oo; one acre sold in 1865 for $10O sold in 1891 for $A,000.,
 This boom may encourage holders of real estate in New Haven. This city doesn't seem to be a more unlikely place for a real estate boom than Jerusalem did.

 sAnother item to be included, at least in our imaginary purchases. is a street gown which is copied exactly from portrait of lady in the time of Henry IL, away back in the sixteenth century. The mate rial is heavy brocaded stone gray silk, and the bodice comes just below the waist line. The stuff Is slsshed across the bust, all darts being avoided thus, the spring from the slashes allowing for the curve of the figure. Tho sleeves are very full and are slashed in regular lines. Epsulettes are at the shoulders and stand out over the sleeves. Through the slash ing of bodice and sleeves the under bod ice of white cloth shows. The collar Is high and high white ruff Is worn about 1t. Ruffs are close around the wrists. The skirs springs promptly from the waist and is about five and half yards around the foot, and touches the ground. It opens up the front to show & narrow strip of the white cloth skirt beneath. On the head is worn what we would call now Henry VIII. cap, round brim of gray and @ soft crown of brocade with a fluffy white feather held by jewel standing up at one side. A silver link collar and a similar band about the hat completes, with white gloves, the costume.

 PARIS, March 29. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 That the city which is tho shopping cen ter of Europe, and which annually attracts to itself 80 many thousands of purchasers from America, should have in it the largest retail emporium to be found anywhere in the world, seems te accord perfectly with the natural fitness of things. This Is the Bon Marche-oheap market-and 1t may safely be said that of all the objects of in- terest which Paris shows with pardonsble pride to its throngs of admiring visitors, this is the one which e1erts the greatest fascination over the feminine mind, and the one, moreover, which, from the fact just mentioned, has the most depicting ef- feet upon the masculine pocketbook. We were told at Whiteley's big store in Lon don that we could buy there anytAIeg from e tooth-piek to an elephant. It was also impressed upon us that if we were In need of such . luxury, the proprietor would take an order to supply us with s wife, and that to furnish young men as dancers at evening parties where the male sex would otherwise be inadsquately rep resented, was trade novelty in which that house did quite thriving business.

 Bishop Nichols, of California, proposes to mark the spot on the coast where Sir Francis Drake's chaplain, Francis Fletcher, held an Anglican service on the 24th of June, 1879, with an appropriate memorial. The locality has not been fixed beyond question, but Bishop Nichols himself and Professor Davidson, of San Francisco, who have been making study of the matter, are sure that the landing was made at the base of Point Reyes, promontory rising 596 feet, which forms one side of Drake's bay, in Marin county. During a recent visit to London Professor Davidson met Secretary Kelter, of the Royal Geographi- cal society, descendant of Sir Francis Drake, who has collected much interesting data about the famous voyage in the Golden Hind that may bs of no little assistance in throwing light on the ques- tions of the Anglican service and the place where 1t was held. 'It is very strange" says Bishop Nichols, "thas the facts have been so long overlooked by the Anglicans, for they are certainly of great interest to all of us, setting at rest the doubts so long entertained as to the time and cireum- stances of the first service of the Episcopal Church in the territory now under the jurisdiction of the Unitsd States"
