mined to begin the work Of reconstruct
ing these ancient water cOnduits Of Sol
ONION up to Jerusalem. The defective
earthen pipes were to be supplanted by
iron ones and contractors were engaged
to supply 200 tons Of iron pipes. The
water course was to be discharged to-
ward the southwestern end of the city
into two large reservoirs, securing water
enough for the whole population. lie
total expense in this work was estimated
at 100000 francs. Thus it is now los
sible to convey to the Holy City daily
$500 cubic meters of water. OF this
they proposed giving 1000 meters free
Of charge TO the poor of Jerusalem, and
their precious gift is distributed ut the
mosque of Omar and the holy sepulcher.
and wherever pilgrims are in the habit
Of gathering in large numbers. The rev
cOnduits join the ancient aqueducts of
AerUb and are carried through a tunnel
$3.50 meters in length.
The Inauguration of this work was an
unusually interesting event. 1t TOOK
place in the presence of the civil I'd
military authorities and the clergy. To
give the ceremony an air Of solemnity
two sheep were slaughtered in the out
gate of the fountains and by this set
the work was consecrated by this, their
most solemn offering.
This long needed ameliOratiOn to the
city Of Jerusalem is a great boon and
blessing TO the inhabitants, for now
they can enjoy pure water as no expense
or great effort to themselves instead of
suffering for lack of il is heretofore and
living in dirty and unhealthy surround
ings due to the scarcity of this precious
fluid. the absence of rain and the ex-

their heads and walking barefoot for

villages.
The country in the vicinity Of these

Here are olive trees and vineyards

A CURB ON CURIOSITY.
louisville Courier-Journal..

Sir George Reed was once premier of
Australia, according to A. T. Macdon-
aid secretary of the Commercial club,
who is an authority on the British en-
pire. since he is a leading member of
the Maple Leaf club. Sir George was
once making a campaign Of the siren
uoUs variety through the provinces,
and it was announced when ne spoke at
Ballarat the town made famous in one
OF Conan Doyles detective stories. that
when he got through speaking he would
be ready to answer any questions put
to him.
When the speaking was over, a fellow
on the front row rose and put to the
premier an Interrogation that was a
sOckdOlager. It was one that cOuldnt
be evaded or satisfactorily answered.
At this critical juncture. as the histori-
ans say, one Of the partisans of Sir
George, who happened to be sitting by
the QuestiOner. leaped TO his feet and
smOte the latter upon the jaw, knocking
him down and out.
rs there any other gintleman that
would like to ask question:" said the
chairman, one Finnerty by name.
There was not. Sir George, as might
have been expected. won his campaign
without having to make many answers
to embarrassing questions.
