PALESTINE WAKING UP.
Many Signs of Progress Due to Ger
man Enterprise.

Many Signs of Progress Due to Ger
man Enterprise.
According to United States Consular
Agent Harris at EibenstocG, Palestine
has shown unmistakable signs of pro-
gress during the last decade, much of
which is to be attributed to German
enterprise.
German colonists, merchants and
horticulturists," says Mr.. Harris, ARE
awakening that part of the Levant
from a lethargy of thousand years
Three years ago a German bank was
established in Jerusalem, with a
branch in Yafa, which exchanged $15,-
100000 in 1901. The waters of the
Dead Sea, where no rudder had been
seen for centuries, are now being piled
by German motor boats. A direct line
of communication has thus been opened
up between Jerusalem and Kerak. the
ancient capital of the land of Moab,
which still commands the caravan
routes leading across the Arabian
desert. Of
There is no doubt that German en-
terprise will also exploit the phosphate
fields situated on both sides of the JOr.
dan, when transportation facilities
shall have been sufficiently developed
to insure success to the undertaking.
For many years Germany has been
looking to Asia Minor and other coun-
tries adjacent to Palestine as suitable
territories in which to develop German
markets. The Bagdad railroad, which
will lead through Anatolia, intersecting
the headwaters of the Tigris and Eu-
pirates, to the shores of the Persian
Gulf, is an enterprise of vast import
ance, not only to Germany, as the pro-
moter, and the Turkish empire. but to
the world at large. 1t is the greatest
commercial and civilizing factor that
could be introduced into this region,
and will tap the rich territories which
composed ancient Mesopotamia. Apart
from new avenues of commerce land
will be opened up to students and tour

The Indignant Interrupter.

The following amusing item of per
sonal experience is given by Augustus
]. C. Hare, in his STORY of Ny Life.
1t occurred during one of his lectures
in Rome:
He had conveyed his little flock
which included at least one live prince
through the palace of the Caesars, and
had gathered them near the Forum
when he observed that a mysterious
stranger who had attached himself tO
the party was showing signs of anger
which increased with every utterance
he-the speaker-made. At length the
interloper could keep silent no longer
He burst fortii in denunciation.
"All that this person has been telling
YOU about the palace of the Caesars, y
he Informed the party in loud voice
"he has had the effrontery to relate to
YOU as if it were his own. You will be
astonished, ladies and gentlemen, to
hear that it is taken word for word
without the slightest acknowledgment
from Mr.. Hare's Walks in Rome"

to look after the health of the trees In
Prospect Park.
Most of the Interest In city trees Is
directly due to the growing fashion
for country houses and estates. City
men have learned to recognize good
trees when they see them and to OBJ
serve them closely enough to detect
promptly any sign Of approaching de-
cay. Landscape architects, who used
to be scarce, are now plentiful and
able, and they have succeeded In edu-
eating such a considerable proportion
of the general public that complaint ia
soon made If the trees of city shows
symptoms of municipal neglect or III
treatment. Indeed, since the DAYS Of
Secretary of Agriculture Morton. who
established "ArbQr day" there has
been a regular campaign of education
In favor Of city trees. The direct eff
feet Of this work. has been the crea-
tion of the tree doctor"
The tree doctor" is not necessarily
practical landscape architect, or gar.
dener, says the Brooklyn Eagle, though
he very often stands high in that pro-
fession. More than one of the really
successful men h'this new occupation
actually knew very little about trees
until a few years ago. Many of them
were amateurs who became interested
in the subject and took 1t up as an
amusement. At that time there were
few facilities for the acquisition of
tree knowledge. but in recent years II
has not been hard for intending doc
tors OF trees to gather knowledge of
the best methods of arboriculture.

is said to be in financial difficulties.
Twelve months ago the German consul
at Damascus, in a report to his govern
ment, advised his countrymen to buy
not only this railroad but the unfinished
Haifa-Damascus railroad as well.
Were Germany to acquire these lines
and connect them with a railroad run
ming from Damascus to some point on
the projected Bagdad route she would
be in a position to practically monopo.
lize the trade of Palestine and Asia
Minor.
''The commerce of Palestine to-day is
not unimportant," said Mr.. Harris, ac.
cOrding to the Washington Star. "The
products of the country are wheat. bar
ley, oranges, oil, wine, nuts, figs. apples
peaches, pears, pOmegranates, apricots
citrons, almonds, cgcumbers, lettuce
onions, wild artichokes and asparagus
truffies. tobacco, sesame and silk, while

The building of the canal resulted in
reversing the flow Of the Chicago Riv-
er, feat long regarded as an impossi-
bility. The river which formerly emp
tied into the lake is now an outlet of
the lake and empties at its other end
into the canal proper. Even yet Chicago
is debating as to which is up and which
ls down the river, which Is its head and
which its mouth.
The waters flowing through the canal
are emptiedin into the Desplaines River at
Lockport, through the controlling
works, which comprise several sluice-
gates of metal with masonry bulkheads
and a bear-trap DAM This dam Is re-
garded by the canal trustees as "the
greatest triumph of engineering genius
that has ever been achieved In this or
or any other country"
The sluice-gates have a vertical play
of twenty feet and openings OF thirty
feet each. The bear-trap dam has an
opening Of 100 feet and an oscillation of
seventeen feet vertically. The con.
trolling works are operated by admit.
ting water through conduits controlled

the master to put on his Overcoat and

she spoke to the mistress. The second
month she ceased these attentions, but
instead made Inquiries as to the hour
at which she was entitled to stop work
on her days out. The third month she
suggested raise OF wages. The fourth
month she said that more washing
ought to be sent out. The fifth month
she announced her approaching de
parture. AS all her previous sugges-

GD HE Sanitary and Ship Canal of
il Chicago is probably the most re-
markable artificial waterway
ever built in the history of the world.
Its total length, including the improved
portion of the Chicago River, is thirty
four miles. 1t has the greatest width
of any canal on earth. having a cross
section of POP feet at the bottom and
3O6 feet at the top. The ultimate object
is to afford water way for the largest
ocean-going vessels from Lake Michi-
gan to the Gulf of Mexico.
The work is yet being carried on un-
ceasingly, the widening of the Chicago
River being now in progress. Residents
of Chicago have already spent $37,37S,-
$40 in the construction of the canal.
They must spend nearly $10,00O,000
more before their part of the work is
done. Then it will cost $25,0O0,000 ad-
ditiOnal to complete the work necessary
to the proposed shipway. This latter
expense, however, it is expected, will be
borne by the Federal Government, and
the entire canal will become Govern
ment property.
Thus the total cost when the work at
present contemplated is finished will
have amounted to more than So, ,OOO,-
600. The Panama Canal is offered to
the United States for .$40,000,OOO, or
less than half the total cost of the Sani-
tary and Ship Canal. Had this canal
been built under conditions that prevail
