WATER RIGHTS lNvloLATs.

SPRINGS and Wells Tn Palestine Are
Protected by sovere Laws.
Water Is the most precious thing in
Palestine, and the laws which protect
springs and wells are very severe.
Most Of the wells are arti6cial. Rich
men at very great expspss have chls-
eled basins and reservoirs out Of the
rocks to receive the new from springs,
and In many places where no aprings
could be found they have drilled
through the limestone hundred feet
and sometimes twice that distance to
the artesian basin.
None but very rich sheiks can afford
such an expenditure. Nevertheless.
they have not only been the greatest
benefactors of their fellow men, but
those who have sunk wells and built
fountains have erected monuments TO
their fame more enduring than palaces
or temples or shafts Of granite.
The temple OF soiomon has vanished
forever, but the pods which he walled
up with masonry and fllied with water
still remain. The wells that Abraham
and Jacob drilled in the rock as acts
Of piety as well as power are as i'm
mortal as their names and will live for
ever as long as men feel thirst.
According to just custom of the
country, water rights could never be
forfeited. No man who owned well
might refuse his neighbor water for
his family or his focks, but the lord
of the spring was inviolate. No cred
itor or enemy could take his water
rights away from him. To injure or
fill up well was an objectionable
crime. When the Phiiistines threw
earth and stones into the well of Abra-
ham, they intended to challenge him
to a war Of determination. These Gus
toms and regulations remain today

allowed to walk. Then Kittinger sent
up several snakes and Darrow famed.
In the fourth inning q lit by pitcher
and a base on balls, with none out
looked bad for Kittinger, but the next
three were easy. A single and two
bagger availed the North Ends nothing
in the fifth. But In the eighth -four
hits and base on balls settled it for
the North Ends. Stone, of To-
ledo, also got into several
holes but he came forth each time
unscarred, due to lightning fielding by
the North Ends. Perhaps the headlest
playing seen on Buchtel field this year
occurred in the third inning when Volk
and Price by great throws cut off runs
at home plate. The game was enliven.
ed by daring base running, but in this
respect the North Ends were for
nate, while the Niagaras were unfor-
tunate. And the contest finally ended
in a victory for the boy from Lucas
over the son of Molle Stark. The

THE ARABS OF YEMEN.

A Story Which Throws a strong
Light on Their Character.
The Times Of India tells the follow
ing story to show the character of the
Arabs of Yemen. A man Of Zaraniks
who several times cut the telegraph
lines and who was punished more than
once was caught on one occasion by
an Arab sheik in charge Of the lines.
The sheik intended to send him to
Needy for imprisonment, but the wife
Of the accused came in and stood as a
guarantee for his future good beha vior.
The sheik accepted the bail and re-
leased him, but shortly afterward he
again resorted to his Old practice Of
cutting the wires and bolted away to
another village at distance Of a days
march, where he had another wife.
The sheik then sent for his FIRST wife,
who stood security for him, and told
her he would disgrace her among the
Arabs If she failed to bring in her hus-
band.
The woman asked the sheik not to
spread the black sheet "a custom Of
the country when any one commits a
breach of trust) until the following
day. She started that night, taking
sharp dagger concealed under her
clothes. to the village where her hus-
band was staying. She found him
asleep in his abode and stabbed him,
cut his throat and carried his head
back to her home. The next morning
she went to the sheik and presented
the head of her husband, saying: Here
is your criminal, and am freed from
the bail Please do not aff1x the black
sheet."-London Telegraph.

sion of the business of that road.
Heretofore trains Nos. 13 and IA have
been handling express, but have had
passenger equipment upon them. The
express business has grown to such an
extent that the train cannot take care
of it and haul passengers also. 1t is
planned. therefore, to devote that train
entirely to the handling of express and
put on in its place new passenger
train.
This will be fitted out, IL it is final
ly arranged for, with the latest pas
senger equipment and will be so timed
as to suit the convenience of the pas
cession to the additional business and
to the competition which the standard
roads. have offered by their faster and
better trains.
The earnings of the passenger de-
partment of the Erie during the year
just closed indicate need for other
service. The total earnings of that
department were $S,0OOOOO, an in
crease over the previous year of $780,
600. 1t is impossible just now to come
at the increase in the earnings of the
road from the express business, but
that is understood to be very heavy
also. At all events, the new service
seems to be necessary and meeting
of the operating men has been called
to figure on the time for the new train.

GAME LAW
As It Applies to Present
Season.
Only Non-Residents Must Pay
License Fee.

The open season for shooting squir-
rels and woodcock began last Friday,
and continues to and including the first
day Of September.
The game laws passed by the last
Legislature have not yet been issued
in book form by the state, and it is
only from advance sheets that its pro-
visions can be ascertained.
When the law was originally draft
ed it provided that all persons should
take out license and pay fee of 81.
This provision was cut out before the
law finally passed
The law does provide, however, that
any nonresident of the state who
wishes TO hunt in Ohio must pay IL
cense Of $25, which is to be secured
in which he desires to hunt. In some
counties the clerks have been sending
out notices and publishing the same
that all persons must secure license to
hunt in Ohio, must pay license fee,
and in some instances the licenses
have been paid.
No one person is allowed to kill more
than 10 squirrel in day. 1t is also
necessary to secure written permit
from landowners or the authorized
agents of the owners of land before
hunting can be done. Persons who
neglect this take chances of paying
from $40 to $15 for the first offensc
and from SIS up for the second. An
effort was made to have the Legis-
lature amend the law so that arrests
could be made only on complaint of the
landowner, but this was defeated, and
warden can cause an arrest even If
the landowner had given verbal con-
sent and was willing for the hunter
to be upon the premises.
The quail and rabbit season does
not open until November and expires
with the first day of December. 1t is
claimed that the squirrel law closes on
the first of September so that hunters
will not shoot quail during September
and October.
Those who are familiar with the
habits of squirrels say they have been
deprived of the best season Of the
year for shooting squirrels, namely,
in September and October, when they
are working upon the hickory nut trees
and when the autumn days are ideal
for the sport. In August, when the
days are hot, 1t is almost impossible
to find the squirrels. They feed early
In the morning and late in the even.
ing, and on moonlight nights are said
to feed by moonlight. During the
day they lie in their holes or in dense
foliage on the highest trees and can
not be found by the hunters.s
