PROGRESS IN PALESTINE.

No new colonies were founded in
Palestine this year, with the excep-
ton of Kinereth, a large farm fourd-
ed by the Palestine Land Develop
ment Company, with the assistance Of
the National Fund, which employs
many Jewish laborers. 1t is hoped
that these lahorers will become indie
pendent colonists by and by.
Work has also begun preparing the
land for the cooperative colony Of
Dr. Oppenheimer which was named
Merhabiah. A large number Of new
olive trees We're planted this year i'm
the Herzel forest, says the Maccaba-
can. The Agudath Netaim obtained
its charter from the Turkish govern,
ment and is continuing to cover new
land with all kinds of plants. Thus
more and more of the arid Palestjn,
ian soil is being reclaimed to new
life,
Jewish immigration into the cities
of Palestine is much more evident.

true that not all of them find the pos

STORY Of
MANCHU MASSACRE

SAN FRANCISCO. oct 23.-Ton
Lui. former dean of the Commercial
College OF Hankow and a prominent
native of WI Chang, makes the fol.
lowing statement:
There can be no truth in the story
that the revoution1sts have massa-
cred 500 Manchus at WI Chang or
Hankow. There are not that many
Manchus there The only Manchus
there are officials Of the government.
and i'm the whole district there are at
most not more than 100, including
men, women and children.
IN the imperial army which fought
at Wu Chang only a few of the lead
ers are Manchu The soldiers are
Chinese. The revolutionists kill only
the Manchus. that take active part
against them. and they do not dis
criminate against the Manchus.
Everybody that fights against the rev
olutionarv army is regarded as a
traitor, but if. when they are defeat.
ed, they assert their willingness to
join the revolutionary cause they are
not executed. Only the leaders are
executed.
The story Of the massacre is prob
ably framed up by the government to
create sentiment against the revolu-
tinists."

more enthusiastic and whose desire
to settle there is strong, succeed in
finding various activities and they
settle there.
These Jews, who have been used
to a life Of comfort in Europe. have
Joined some Of the old settlers and
have founded a new suburb, a new
town really, near JaGa which they
named Tel-Abib This town, built on
the American style, inasmuch as it
sprang out as if by magic within one
year on the sand of the seashore, is
very beautiful It is well planned,
has wide paved streets lined with
trees, every house is fitted up with
water pipes and bathrooms, and they
are built in a specified Oriental style
surrounded by a garden.
II is in all something of which the
Jews in Palestine are justly proud.

tians were astonished at the remark.
able achievements of the Jews, and
their envy is genuine. All the resi-.
dents Of Jaffa, Christians as we'll as
Mohammedans, take their holiday
walks in Tel-Ahib.
The gates Of this suburb are closed
on Saturday to prevent the entrance
of vehicles, although the majority Of
its inhabitants are not religious; but
the Jewish Sabbath is accepted by all
as holy day of rest The atmos.
phere in Tel.Abib is naturally entirely
Jewish, and the Hebrew language in
its beautiful Oriental accent is heard
on every side.

known pioneer families, was fatally
injured early this morning by leapins
from the window of St. Vincents Hos
pital while in delirium caused by i'll

minutes later.
Dimick's injury was sustained on
October 18th, when he bruised a rib
while playing, with the alumni team
in student contest at Pacific Univer-
sity, Forest Grove. The injury was
neglected and pneumonia developed.
At the hospital the nurses were eau
toned to watch the young man, but
he eluded them on this occasion and
leaped from a window before he could
be restrained.
Terribly injured, Dimick was borne
into the hospital. He recovered con
seriousness and asked for the last sac
rament of the church. This was ad-
ministered by a nun who was present
and Dimick died a moment later.

The Sheikh of them rode forward then,

He answered to the Arab Sheikh:

Keep a tadpole in cold water and In

Browning's Magazine. the tadpole be-
comes a frog in from six to eight
weeks, although 1t will have been two

At this stage of its transformation
the tadpole breathes like fish, taking
water through the gills into the mouth
and spouting it out on the LETT size.
Its tail is what the tadpole feeds on
