Chris tians In Damascus.

AS Kaiser Wilhelm rode through the
streets of Damascus recently it may
not have occurred to him that it is
only &c years since that privilege was
first accorded to a Christian. 1t was
only in 1892, when the city was taken
by the Egyptians under lbrahim Pacha,
that a foreign consul was permitted to
enter. The British consul entered it
mounted and in full costume, with an
escort of Egyptian soldiers. Ii may
also not be entirely reassuring to his
mind that as recently as 1860 the great
massacre of the Christian population
took place. The Moslems, taking ad-
vantage of the disturbances in the Leb-
anon, rose against the Chris tians,

we.non and Lantern Combined.

A private policeman of Ludlow, KY,
William Fritz. has in actual use the
very latest policeman's club. Aston
ishing as it may seem, the club con-
tains an electrical apparatus which fur
nishes powerful searchlight. 1t is a
weapon and lantern combined, and may
be used with equal effect in either ca
pacity. The construction is simple. A
storage battery within the club, a push
button at the handle end, where the
thumb naturally rests, and small but
powerful electrie lamp behind a thick
glass bulls eye at the tip OF the club,
covers it all. The electric apparatus
is SO ingeniously devised that it is
not injured when blow is struck with
the club-Philadelp Record.
