The DEAD SEA.
Old Popular Beliefs About It That Are

OLD Popular Beliefs About It That Are
Not Founded on Fact.
The Dead sea is Il remarkable lake,
forty-six miles long and from i've to
nine miles wide, situated In the south
east Of Palestine and known from the
time of Jerome C340-42O A. d. as the
Dead" sea. because no fish Of any
kind have ever been found in its wa
tars. Its surface. which is lower than
that Of any other body of water known,
IS LOOP feet below the level of the
Mediterranean. At its northern end
1t has depth of about 1900 feet,
while the water at the southern ex-
tremity is only from three to twelve
feet deep.
The 9ead sea is fed by the Jordan
from the north. but has no outlet, the
water being apparently carried Off by
evaporation. The water of the Dead
sea contains large amount Of the
salts Of magnesia and soCI; as con.
sequence its specific gravity is high,
and bathers float in 1t with ease.
The popular notions that the Dead
sea exhales noxious vapors and that
birds cannot fly over its surface and
remain unframed are not founded ON
/ fact.
According to tradition, Sodom and
Gom0Tah, "the cities of the plain"
stood on the site now occupied by the
Dead sea, This view however, is no
longer entertained, and II is now con-
sidered certain that the Dead sea ex-

ANTS SCORE MEMORIAL
DAY PLAN OF SUFFRAGISTS.
Call Mrs. BelmOnt's Scheme
TrayeSty on Patriotism.

NEW YORK, May, 2o.-Mrs. O.SH. p.
Belmont, who conceived the idea of
decorating on Memorial Day the graves
of noted suffragists, has been rebuked
by the -suffragists. Even the flags
she supplied are under the ban, the
antis declaring the plan a "desecra-
ton" and "travesty on patriotism" +"
Here is the protest of the National
League for the Civic Education of
Women, of which Mrs. Richard Watson
Glider is president
'It is announced that the suffrage
associations are to use the day that has
been set apart for commemoration of
the men who laid down their lives in
defense of the republic as the one in
which to put travesty Of the national
flag on the graves of those who de-
voted their lives to the cause of woman
suffrage. This Is SO grotesaue that 1t
might we'll pass unnoticed by the OPP
posers of woman suffrage, were it not
for the fact that there is a serious as
pect to the suffrage movement as 1t re-
lates to patriotism which should neither
be ignored nor go unrebuked.
What deeds of their patriotism and
self-sacrifice will this farce commemo-
rate? Not one. While their country
women were working with fervor and
loyalty that spared neither time nor
strength, sending their nearest and
dearest and nursing in hospital and
field, the suffragists did nothing of

TRENTON, May 20.-Assuming that

their midst without kicking would also

locality, the City Council has encoun-

The Council decided to put the dog
pound in a building formerly used as

crematory.
Arrangements had been completed
with the owners of the building, when
the residents of the neighborhood got
wise. Walter Firth. superintendent of
the crematory, was promptly waited
upon by as Indignant a delegation Of

ever called upon a city official. They
told him, in effect. that they would
endure the discomforts and unseemly
smells Of the garbage crematory, but
they had to draw the line on dog
