THE TOMB OF MOTHER EVE.


A Tempie Near Mecca Declared By
Arabs to 10 the Spot
The Arabs claim that Ewes tomb Is
at Jiddah, the seaport Of Mecca. Tho
temple. with palm growing ont Of
the solid stone roof "a curiosity which
Is of itself wonder of the Orient) is
supposed to mark the last resting place
of the first woman, According to
Arabian tradition Eve measured over
two hundred feet in height, which
strangely comedies with an account Of
our first parents written by member
of the French Academy of Sciences
few years ago, who also claimed
height of over two hundred feet for
both of the tenants Of the Garden Of
Eden.
Ewes tomb, which is in graveyard
surrounded with high, white walls,
and which has not been opened for q
single interment for over thousand
years, is'the shrine of thousands Of de-
voted Ishmaelites, who, according to
Notes and Queries, make pilgrimage
to the spot once every seven years. It
is hemmed in on all sides by the tom bs
Of departed sheiks and other worthless
who have lived out their days in that
region Of scorching sun and burning
sands. Once each year, on Juno a.
which is, according to Arabian legends,
the anniversary of the death of Abel
the doors of the temple, which form
canopy over this supposed tomb of our
first mother, remain open all night, in
spite Of the keepers efforts to close
them. Terrible cries of anguish are
said to emit from them. as though the
memory of The first known tragedy
still haunted the remains which blind
superstition believes to be deposited
there.

Blazel, nature seems to have made up
her mind that there was going to be
no such foolishness. The smartest
surgeon that ever handled a scalpel
couldn't cut Rosa and Josepha apart
without killing them or her. Down

The Brennus is remarkable as show
ing complete abandonment by the
French designers Of those points that
have heretofore been characteristic of
French designs. The usual swan
breasted ram bow is replaced by u
straight stem without even a project
ing spur. The high, ''tumbling home"
topsiders are done away with. Two
of the three 13.4 guns are in one turret
on the middle line forward, instead
of separated on each side forward
of the smolSepipes The details of
the ship are as follows: Displacement.
10, 9s3 tons; length, 361 feet; beam, 81
feet; draught, &c feet inches; battery,
1874 inch guns of So tons, ten SO inch
guns -four in small turrets, six in
armored citaGeD, four rs inch and
eight smaller rapid fire guns and eight
machine guns; expected horse power,
14,Oo0i corresponding speed, II. 5 knots.
The armor on the belt and after turret
has thickness of 15X inches. on the
forward turret l7si inches, on the cit
adel AZ inches and on the small tur-
rets 4 inches. The Brennus was
launched in October, 1891.
France possesses few large unarmored
cruisers of recent type, and there
seems to be no tendency toward
changing the present ratio. The
strength of the French navy has for a
century or more been second only to
that of the English. But its power
during the past two decades, great
as it has undoubtedly been, was much
less than II a reasonable constructive
speed had been maintained.
The navy Of no other continental
power is making such strides as is
that of Russia. The additions to her
armored feet now under construction
are equaled only in England. During
the past year the armored cruiser

pleted. The Gangoot (6,593 tons) the
Navarin (0,476 tons) and the Dvenad-
sat Apostolotoff (s,o76 tons) will be
finished within year. There are
building the mammoth armored cruiser
Rurik Q0,923 tons), the battle ships

Bobyedonosets Us, $50 tons), of a modi-
fed Siuope type; Tri Sviatiteli (1s,4so

The ambitious policy Of Italy has
brought her to a point beyond which
her financial condition will not permit
her to go. Though ranking for several
years next to France in sea power, she
now yields that proud position to Rus
STA and drops to fourth in the race!
Little new work has been definitely
planned, and the vessels in hand are
advancing very slowly. The Italians

LAST SUNDAYS RIOT.
The Conduct of Members of the Ber-
saglieri Guard.

The Conduct of Members of the Ber-
saglieri Guard.
The Secretary of the Bersaglieri Society
has written a communication to an even
ing contemporary in which he finds fault
with the newspaper reports of and COM
ments upon the disgraceful row which
TOOK place at the picnic of the BersaglIeri
Guard on Sunday last. 1t appears from
his statement that he was not present at
the time of the disturbance, and it is
possible that he really does not know
what took place. He may be ignorant of
the fact that armed guards made des-
perate assaults upon policemen, one of
whom, at least, was in full uniform, so
that he could not have been mistaken for
a hoodIum. This may account for the
IalIure or the Secretary to refer in any
way to the assault upon the officers.
The fact is that the members of the
Bersagllerl should have been well salts
ned with the published reports, for they
ana not show the affair up as fully as
would nave been done had the facts been
known at The time, as they are now. The
police say that they have knowledge of
three or four cases of attempted murder
GUS assault. one upon an officer. One of
the victims was SO severely stabbed with
a Dayonet that he was out for the first
uine yesterday. Guards resisted, defied
and assaulted the officers of the law, ac-
cordlng to the statement Of the police.
IL Is probably true that the first trouble
arose over the bad conduct of BOYS and
men who attempted to get into the
grounds without paying, but no matter
what assaults were made upon the guards
by hoodlums it was no Justification for
armed assault upon the officers who were
att H ping to quell the disturbance.
There seems to be little doubt that the
BersaglIeri people had good cause for
anger against lot of roughs that went
there to make trouble and who would
have merited almost any punishment the
guards could have inflicted upon them,
put the latter were certainly in the
wrong when they attacked the officers
sent there to preserve order. If they had
assisted the officers, as they should have
done, the roughs would have been re-
moved from the grounds and locked up

There is plenty of evidence that both
the State law and city ordinance are daily
violated, for the dumps are there, and
are steadily growing, polluting the at
mosphere in their vicinity and not only
inviting bat breeding disease.
There is but one remedy-abolish the
dnmps at once, compel the owners of the
lots used for that purpose to cover the
decaying deposits with several feet of
earth, and then put up crematory for
the future disposal of garbage. There is
no use dilly-dallying with this thing any
longer: The dumps are dangerous-they
are unlawful, and must be abolished.
The Board of Health can order them
abated, and the order can be enforced.
