WANTS PAY REDUCED.
Michigan Sheriff Ready to Sacrifice
Money for Principle.

JACKSON. Mich, January 3.-Sheriff
George H. Bean will, at the next meeting
Of the board Of supervisors, request that
the necessary steps be taken to put his
office on a salary basis. He is serving
the third term in his Office and, although
he has been doing good business under
the fee system, he has always believed
a salary preferable for compensation for
all peace officers.
Although the constitution prohibits a
change of compensation during the term
for which an officer is elected, Mr. Bean
believes that an understanding could be
made with the supervisors provided the
salary agreed upon was less than the
income from the fees. This is the lrst
instance in Michigan where an officer has
asked to have his compensation reduced.
The job on a fee basis is believed to be
worth from $4,000 to $1,000 year.

q great limestone hospice Is going up over
which the German flag floats.
This will be a resting place for such
Germans as are travelling through the
holy land and want to stay week or
so a Jerusalem. 1t is being erected in
honor of the Empires of Germany, and is
known as the Empress Augusta SAM
tarium The money with which the site
was bought and some of that used for
the building was silver wedding present
to the Empress. 1t was known that she
greatly loved Palestine and her friends
planned this memorial as a silver we'd
ding gift.
The hospice will have a chapel connect
ed with 1t, and eminent Germans will
preach there. 1t is beautifully located,
being situated on Mount Scopus, which
is really a part of the Mount of Olives.
1t is several hundred feet above Jeru-
salem, and standing upon its roof on a
bright day one can look across the hills
of Judea and see the silvery thread of
the Jordan and the shining Dead sea with
the blue mountains Of Moab beyond.

The Kaiser Is no respecter of persons,

he is building his big church on Mount
Zion was purchased by him of Sultan
Abdul Hamid when he visited him in
Constantinople. He went there on his way
to the Holy Land and while hobnobbinS
with the Sultan got him to sell him this
tract for $4,000. The land, however, was
not large enough and it adjoined the
American cemetery. The Germans bought
this. the Americans here claim, in an
underhand way, at a cost of $4,000 adj

Hotel WHICH Steps Ten Thousand
The Russians have here what is per-
haps the largest hotel of the world. 1t
can sleep 10000 at time and in addi-
ton has buildings for families. 1t Is
known as the Russian Hospice, and it lies
at the west outside Jerusalem proper.
1t covers a space of 10 acres or more and
has high wall about it.
Entering the gates of this hospice, one
finds himself surrounded by Russians
and Russian scenes. 1t Is the slice of the
land the Gear dropped down in Judea.
and there is nothing Syrian in sight The
men dress in caps, long coats and trous-
ers, the last being tucked into high
boots They are long-bearded, long
haired and fair-faced. There are many
red heads among them and none seems
TO know of the razor The women are
clad in coarse gowns which end at six
inches or more from the ankle. They
wears boots or straw shoes, and in the
latter case their legs are wrapped around
with cloths which take the place of
stockings. They have handkerchiefs tied
about their heads and their features are
usually as hard and rough as those of
the men,.
But suppose we go into the woman
quarters of this mighty hotel. The build
ing is cut up into cave-like vaults, which
run from one side of 1t to the other.
These vaults are lighted at the ends, and
standing in a central hall it seems as
though the windows were at least 200
feet distant. Each vault is eight feet
