TOMB OF JOHN THE BApTIsT.
Interesting Personal Experiences Of Rev.
Henry IesSuN fha Ia, Eact

Interesting Personal Experiences Of Rev.
Henry Ii. Jessup In the Far East.
Rev. Henry II. Jessup, brother of
Judge Jessup, delivered an entertain
ing address last night at the First
presbyterian church, bearing upon his
experiences in Syria, from which coun-
try he has just returned after an alb
sence of ten years.
Mr.. Jessup quoted the thirteenth
verse of Psalm 145, "Thy kingdom is
an everlasting kingdom, and thy do
minion endureth throughout all gener-
ations." This verse, he said, was in
scribed on the Intel Of the old mosque
at Damascus, the original church of st.
John the Baptist, and was erected in
the second century, but the words 20
Christ" had been inserted, making it
read Thy kingdom, 0 Christ" The
Mahometans did not perceive this al
teration at first, but they divided the
mosque by one great wall, giving the
Christians one half of the mosque and
retaining one-half for their own use
until finally they drove the Christians
entirely away. The colossal roof was
destroyed by fire, reducing the tomb
Of St. John the Baptist to ashes, and
destroying several libraries of price
low any report of the catastrophe to
appear In the papers or permit any
telegraphic reports be sent, so great
was their dread of the calamity being
known.
Referring to social habits. Mr.. Jessup
stated that the habit of smoking was
inveterate, and INDUCED in by men,
women, boys and girls. AS to mar
riages 1t was not to be surprised at
that they were failure, as the men
never saw or did not know the bride
until after the wedding ceremony was
over, and the Syrian women in visiting
Christian households were Inundated
by the inferiority they could not but
confess to. and, consequently, the girls
were sent to the Christian schools.
Ultimately they had schools of their
own. %
With regard to the question whether
these people would become Christians,
the reverend gentleman answered the
question by describing several cases of
conversions which came under his OBJ
servation, and especially with regard
to young Mahometan who accom-
plished great work in Christian life.
