Omar profaned the site OF Solomon's

Al last the war-like nations Of the
West were aroused. IL is said thet a
single cry will sometimes bring down

lions. The armed and disciplined forces

else Is changed: and startling are the
contrasts. The roads which have been
so carefully smoothed for the melo-
dramatic progress of the pilgrim of to-
day, were then rough and blood stained.
The original itinerary was not arranged
by a tourists agency: the long N ar
duous march was blazed out with
bleaching bones and hedged with steel.

We are viewing a modern spectacular
play on the stage OF the grandest trag-
cdies of history. A brief comparison Of
the old performance with the new is
