In the nare1n. Damascus.

There is a certain amount of mystery
connected with a harem; therefore we
were greatly pleased when it's occupants
sent to ask the ladies of our party to
pay them a visit. We We're shown into
a smaller reception room, and they came
to US Their appearance was dlsappoint-
ing, for they were neither beautiful nor
we'll dressed Their costumes were Of
Powered muslin, and their headdresses
were quite devoid Of ornament
We heard afterward that in the heat
Of summer the Damascus ladies lay
aside their richer dresses Of cloth and
silk and their jeweled turbans for this
lighter and more commonplace attire.
Conversation between rs was imposs; BILE,
for they know no English, and we were
equally ignorant of Arabic, and the only
interpreter at hand was our local drago-
man, who Of course might not be adj
mitted to their presence.
In another house that we visited, also
through the good will Of the vice con-
sui, the oriental charm was somewhat
broken by our hosts appearing in Euro
pean dress instead of their national
flowing robes, bat none the less did they
receive us with true eastern courtesy.
They showed us, with evident pride, a
quantity of priceless old Persian china,
which, being a valued heirloom, rarely
saw the light, but which had been
brought out for a banquet on the pre-
ceding day Equally splendid was a
third palace, but it was splendor in de-
cay, for the owner was bankrupt and
the house deserted. Grass was growing
between the slabs of marble pavement,
the water was stagnant in the 'foun-
tain, mosaics had fallen from their set
ting in the walls. and the whole build
ing was pervaded by an air Of desola-
tion. That this had been home of
wealth was manifest from there being
within its precincts Turkish bath. On
this also the seal of time was set, and
the series Of rooms, each for its special
purpose of heating douching, cooling
or resting, were in state of dilapida-

: NEW PRODUCT.
An Artificial sIrup Evolved From beet
Sugar.

LSpec1a1 CorreSpOudenG6-l
WASHINGTON, July 5.-The chemists
cunning has evolved from beet sugar an
entirely new product known a. 'sarti-
fetal fruit sugar. which promises to be
Of exceptional interest to all persons con-
cerned in fruit preserving-no a ire
mendous interest in this country. Ac-
cOrding to a description furnished by
the American consul general at Frank
fort, Mr.. Frank H. Mason, ssthe process
consists. apparently in the inversion of
beet sugar at 8 certain stage of its man
ufacture by chemical treatment into
what is technically designated s1avu-
1ose,' which is chemically identical with
the natural fruit sugar developed
greater or less degree in most kinds Of
fruit.
ct differs both in taste and chemical
composition from cane sugar, is a lmpid
white strip of great density, containing
from Is to 76 per cent of sugar, and
possesses, among other valuable quail
ties, a rich, fruity flavor and the capac-
ity to remain fluid and free from granu-
1ation for an indefinite period, notwith-
standing its nigh degree OF density. It
is well known that ordinary white strip
containing IS per cent or more of sugar
crystallizes and forms granular deposits,
and when used for preserving fruit often
candies to such 8 degree that the pre-
serves have to be recooked to restore the
desired smoothness and duidity. The
new artificial fruit sugar, on the contra
ry, remains smooth and fluid under all
conditions. But the quality which chief
ly determines its commercial value is it's
power to assimulate, develop and pre-
serve the natural aromatic flavor of the
fruit to which it is applied as a preserv-
ing material. Confectioners, fruit pack
ers and skilled housekeepers who have
tested it quite extensively during the
past year in the preservation of cherries,
straw berries, peaches and various other
fruits pronounce it far superior for such
purposes to any other form of sugar.
Finally it corrects the tendency so
common in fruits preserved in ordinary
sugar, to soften and assume a crude,
sugary favor, which not only Injuries
the color and appearance of the pre-
serves, but renders them cloying and
disagreeable to the taste" It is also
said to be largely entering into use al
ready in Europe for the 'sperfecting" of
wines and manufacture of liquors and
is much better than sugar for the MAX
ing of lemonade. $50 far as known its
use has not been extended, even expert
mentally, to the United States"

The Decline Of the Gondo1a In venioo-

1t would be expected, of course, that no
way exists to get about in Venice ex
4cept by gondola- This is nowadays an
error. There is no spot in Venice which
cannot be reached by dry land. There
are now in the city $50 to 400 bridges,
and it is possible to cross the canals on
foot at almost any point. Those who do
not wish to do this can get in a steam
boat and go from one end of the Grand
canal to the other. There are frequent
stations, the boats run every four min
utes, and the fare is only 2 cents.
The gondola thus has been nearly
driven out of business The residents Of
the city go about on foot or on steam
boat. They have no time to be lazily
roved from place to place by a Condo
lier. Tt has come about, therefore, that
there are much fewer g0ndolas in the
service than formerly, and what there
are have less to do Their chief occupa-
ton is to transport visitors who have
only a few days to stay, and who wish
to tell their friends when they go home
that they have ridden in a gondCla-
There is considerable business on moon
light nights, but in daytime very few
boats are in USE
Tho gondolier is not the romantic per-
son that fancy paints him either. He is
very ordinary Italian, poorly clothed
beggar, who always wants more money
than his legitimate fare and talks about
his pour boire or extra drink money dur
ing the entire ride--Phi1adelphi Te1e-
