for Germany to claim the Holy Land

One Of the chief factors Of the
movement just now is a German tour

Thomas Cook & Son for the travel
which comes here every year from all
parts of the world. This tourist gency
has esta blished its own hotels at Jaffa,
Jerusalem and Haifa, and has it's own
guides, dragomen, horses n car

the country, and they have established
such relations with the Bedouin tribes
that they can take parties anywhere.
They are repairing roads, and are max
ing such arrangements that one can
now go through many hitherto mac
cessible parts Of the country by car

started a new roads movement in the
Holy Land. The first attempt wa

The Russians come here by the fifty

Many OF the pilgrims LAND at Halfa.

From there tehy make their way on

stopping at Nazareth and then going
on to Tiberius. They stop and pray

There were line barrels in some OF

the tombs were covered with br1cks.
In digging up the cemetery a ous
was ~excavated which some say was
used by the Virgin Mary at the time
Of the crucifx on. The omb Of David
is also supposed to be near there ana
the spot is considered especially holy.
The kaiser has given the land to the
Roman Catholics Of his country and
the church is to be under the order
Of the Rened:ctines.
The German Church inside the city
is owned by the Lutherans. There is

ragOma He tells me that Kaiser
Wilhelm and the Empress started in
at Beirut and crossed the fountains
of Lebanon to Baalbec and Damascus.
They then returned to Beirut and took
ship down the coast, past Tyre II
Sidon, to the Bay Of Acre. Here
horses were waiting for them II
they rode down around the slopes Of
Mount Carmel, over the plains Of
Sharon to Jaffa and thence up the
hills of Judea to Jerusalem. There
were about q thousand in thu party
and it reQu red 1880 mules and horses
to carry them and their baggage. The
Emperor himself had q staff Of one
hundred and twenty, who ate at his
own tables, and there were in addition
one hundred and forty naval and mill
tary officers outside. The Empress
had her ladies-in-waiting with her and
there were one hundred and seventy
five hig Turks and officials supplied
by the Sultan as a special escort. The
EmperOr's tour was so arranged that
ne had four camps, and he slept n a
different camp every night and had a
new one for each meal.
Although the journey was made in
October. the weather was hot and the
chef trouble was to supply the ex-
petition with water. Some died of
thirst, and between Haifa and Jaffa
six horses dropped dead Of s~unstroke.
It was SO hot that the trip to the
Dead Sea and the Jordan was not at
tempted, but the Emperor went to
bethlehem and other places near here.
He remained seven days at Jerusalem
and during that tine c~onsummatcd
