To Rebuild solomon's Temple.

The Free Masons of Boston have
launched stupendous scheme for the
rebuilding of the Temple of Solomon, at
jerusalem, the founder Of the Masonic
Order, and in furtherance CT it have ap-
piled to the Massachusetts Legislature for
incorporation papers for building COM
pany. They propose to collect fund OF
at least 500, 900, 900 from the Masons OF
the whole world.
Aside from the natural difficulties ofre-
constructing Solomon's Temple-the
great work of the reign of a great mon
arch-there are certain political consider
atoms in the way which make the pro-
iect seem even madden than it appears at
first glance. The site of the temple, it is
said, is occupied at the present day by
one of the greatest of all Mohammedan
mosques, and it would be impossible
without war to secure this from the
Mohammedans for the purpose in mind.
But little thing like this does not deter
the Boston Masons, who have interested
their fellow asons all over the world.
They are going bravely on. and if they do
not achieve success it will not be for lack
of trying.
To gain some idea of how great a task
the building of the temple would be, aside
from all questions of politicts, it is only
necessary to consider few of the figures
that have been preserved concerning
Solomon's own enterprise.
The building of the Temple, it is said,
occupied Solomon three years after he
had got all of his material together. The
number of men he employed in the work
was:
The Kings levy in Israel, $4,000; bear
ers of burdens, 70, 0O0;hewers in the noun
tains, $4,000; overseers, $500; total, 1885,
300.
Counting the men to have labored
eight hours day, at IS cents an hour,
the daily wage bill was:
For the Kings levy, S6, 900; bearers OF
burdens, $4,000; hewers in the noun
trims, SOC, 1000; total, $4,000.
To this must be added the overseers'
bill of, at the rate of So day, 5000,
which makes the total daily wage the
grand sum of $225, 900.

LONDON, April 30.-Those studying

hard the middle class, both of which
are wailing. The socialistic provis-
