EGYPT AND THE HOLY LAND.

Rev. IL. w. Kuhn's Lecture on His
Oriental Trip. ..A
A very good audience occupied the Swedish
Methodist church last night to listen to a
lecture by Rev. H. w. Kuhns on "The Holy
Land" In addition to the lecture was o
number of selections in Swedish by sololsts
and the choir. The entertainment was for
the poor.
Mr.. Kuhns gave an interesting and lively
account of a trip he took 10 the holy land
in the early part of 1885, journey which
extended over four months. His tale was re-
plete with anecdotes and descriptions, and
he not infrequently raised hearty laugh.
He exhibited a number of relics that he had
obtained, about which was clustered historic
interest. 1'1 sass s-4s ...t.
After taking his listeners to the Bermudas,
the Azores, Gibraltar Malacca and other
parts of Spain, including the Alhambra and
Algiers, he entered upon the historic field
he intended to survey by landing at Alexan-
dria and then proceeding up the Nile to
Cairo and its vicinity. Here he visited the
spot where Moses was discovered in the
bullrushes and drank out of the well which
Joseph used. He saw the granaries in which
grain was stored in Josephs time and other
spots mentioned in the old testament He
also described the pyramids.
From this point he proceeded to Joffa and
then to Jerusalem and other historic points
in Palestine He described Jerusalem as a
walled town of 24O acres in which 60. 900
people lived. some $4,000 more being outside
the walls. He said that he did not put much
faith in the claim that the church of the
Holy Sepulchre covered the spot where
Jesus was crucified, as he believed that tho
crucifxlon occurred without the walls. He
thought the reputed Jesus tomb, however,
was the right one. He described consider
able number of the points of interest to
Christians both in Jerusalem and other parts
of Palestine

OMAHA. April 9.-To' the Editor of The

article In the evening papers stating that

testing his will and the disposition he has
made OF his property. i have been aaso-
cated In business with Mr.. Burnham for
three years, have had charge of all his
property matters since he went to California
In the fall OF 1894, and still have charge of
them for the widow and children. That there
is any such thing as contest as yet is un-
qualifedly false and II the children have any
thing to say about the matter there will be
no contest. Through an oversight a guard

absolutely nothing about the family or what
was for their best interests. Without con-
sulting with his clients. who are living in
California, and who are at least old enough
to have faint idea of what they want done

one appointed who has some acquaintance
with the situation OF the family OF Leavitt
burnham and some knowledge OF the legal

what Is for their best welfare. That Is all

in the property wishes. There was no dis

At meeting of the Young Mems Thurston
Republican club held Wednesday evening the
preliminary steps were taken in an effort to
secure the adoption of the Crawford system Of
primaries in Omaha. The system has been
tried In Lincoln and some other places In the
state and It is said that its operations have
boen very satisfactory. The main object of the
new system Is to do away with the ccnven-
tions and the accompanying political manipu-
atoms Under the Crawford system the can
didate is elected by the vote at the primaries
without the intervention Of delegates at
