 Wood Benson was the first American to pull the throttle of an engine in motion a distinction of which he was very proud, and which enabled him. incidentally, to anasa a considerable fortune. He is said to have enjoyed the friendship and patronage of the late Daniel Drew and other famous men of that period.

The Pool of siloam.

Sunday Companion.
 For over ten years the pool of Siloam has been only a name Visitors to Pales- tine who have visited this famous spot of late years have found that it's healing waters have vanished. This was great blow to the inhabitants. but just recently the waters of Siloam have been made to flow once again. and there has been great rejoicing in the Holy Land. It appears that Jerusalem has been especially short of water of late, and it occurred to some of the inhabitants of Siloam to try and find out whether the spring which used to supply the pool was really dry. Tons of accumulated rubbish was cleared away, and after about a months work the spring was found. The excavatorS discovered behind some fallen rocks an old aqueduct running away into the val- ley of the Kedron, and into this aque- duct the beautiful. cool. clear water had run and been wasting for years.
