Louis Gorsline has a peculiar and

recent report.
Some years ago he was a trainman
on the Old Toledo & Ann Arbor rail
road. He lost his right hand in an ac-
cident at M28ain, and when he was
able to work the company gave him a
place as fiagman. He was restless to
increase his income, and began to hunt
sparroWs. receiving the bounty of two
cents apiece then provided by state
law
lie shot them and trapped them at
odd times Until he found the work so
profitable that he hired a man to do
his work as fagman and gave his
whole time to sparrow hunting. He
afterwards used preparation in which
he soaked wheat and milet seed. and
two or three kernels Of this was enoupb
to make any sparrow his in a few min
utes' time. In this way he would take
thousands in a day.
Mr.. Gorsline says that he does not re-
member ever finding but one bird aside
from the sparrows that had eaten the
poisoned grain, and that other birds do
not eat grain. He has caught the pests
IN nearly every county in the lower
peninsula and has also worked in the
upper peninsula. Over $4,000 was paid
to him by the state in bounties and
nearly three-quartefs of million birds
were killed by him in the five years he
followed the work as business.

that no such body exists. An object

detection, and the possibility is small
that 1t may have been hidden by the

FOUND IN THE HOLY LAND.
Mcst Interesting md Extraordinary
Discovery in the History of Pal
estinian Exploration.

A remarkable testimonial to the
truth of Bible history has recently
been discovered in the Holy Land. Ac-
cording to a most reliable authority
the house in which John the Baptist
was born has been located and a Ia bet
found in it on which was written the
name of John and his father, Zach
arias.
The method by which this interest
ing and valuable discovery was made
was most unusual one, and perhaps
the most extraordinary in the whole
history OF Palestinian exploration,
says the New York World.
About eight years ago mosaic map
was discovered at Madaba, in the hilly
country east OF the Dead sea- This
map, which dates from the fourth or
fifth century, gives the names and loca-
tions of q number of places mentioned
in the New Testament.
A native Christian, seeing this map,
noticed that one of the sites was named
Beth Iahar, which means "the house
of Zacharias." The common tradition
before this time had been that the
house of Zacharias was somewhere
near Ain Karen, west of the city of
Jerusalem.
A party of archaelogists at once rec
Ognized the importance of the dis
coyery and set TO work making exca-
vations on the site indicated by the
Madaba map A few days work
brought to view the mosaic pavement
and foundation stones of a church,
which was shown from the situation
Of the stones to have been a domed
structure, as it was represented in the
pictorial map.
More than this, an inscription was
discovered on the pavement, which,
when interpreted, was found to be the
names John and ZachariaS. This in
scription removes all doubt in the mat
ter and shows conclusively that the
Madaha man was correct The domed
church. the ruins Of which have been
discovered. was very evidently mem
Orial church built on the site of John
the Baptist's birthplace.
The place where the excavations
have been made is 20 kilometres from
Jerusalem and 16 kilometers from He
bron, lying to the right of the road
that connects the two places.
The domed church was situated near
the point where the road crosses the
river Ain Harrub, whose waters Pom
titus plate brought to Jerusalem. Tt
appears to have been fair-sized build
ing. II meters in length. The dOmed
roof is significant in view of the fact
that every other ancient building that
has been excavated in the vicinity has
a gable roof.
The name given by the natives to the
site was found in Herbat Belt Shakzar, |
which means "the ruins of thc house Of
Iacharias.' The Hebrew word Beth"
meaning house, has been Ara bianized
into ''Beit," and "Zahar" has been
changed by the same process into
"Shakkar."
