in October-two months before the

a report for an exclusive bank cur

A Steamer on the Jordan.

The progress of civilization has
at last reached the Jordan, and a
steamboat churns the water in
which John baptised. The Abbot
Pachomius, of the monastery of ST.
John, at Jericho, made the first at
tempt at steam navigation with a
diminutive launch about three years
ago. The experiment was so sue
cessful that small steamer was
purchased year later and taken
to the Jordan.
This boat, the Prodromus, now
maintains regular passenger ser

co and the southern end of the
Dead sea, and is well patronized by
the tourists and pilgrims.
