Horses Will Be Worth Good
Money

When we remember the effect the Boer war
had on prices for horses it is not unwarrantabe to
predict says the Missouri Valley Farmer, that good
horses will bring very high prices within the next
wear. All advices from Europe agree that the NOR
tality among the horses used in the war is higher
than in any other war in history. Sometimes every
horse in regiment is killed. One cavalry officer
is quoted as saying he had to have new mount
every four DAYS. as at the end of that time horse
was either worn out and unfit for further service,
or had been hit.

Knowing that during the days of the actual
Easter celebration would have little oppor-
tunity to see these things. owing to the great
crowds, We took occasion to visit them the day
following arrival Among the principal
places of interest in the Church of the Holy
Sepulcher are the supposed tomb of Christ, the
stone of JUNCTION, the holy sepulcher, the Greek
church, the chapel of st. Helena and Mount
Calvary.
The first of the Easter services in the holy
city consists of the washing of feet" This

as they were seated upon little platform
On the next day-Good Friday-we witnessed
the Latin ceremony of the crucifxion. This is
interesting in a way, but somewhat shocking to
the occidental idea This ceremony takes place
over what is said to be the actual site of the
crucidxion 1t is performed before cross on

conclusion the figure is taken down from the
cross and placed in white sheet the crown of
thorns and the nails drawn from the hands" and

procession is formed which leads to the stone
of JUNCTION, where sermons delivered in six

the most important of all. There is a certain
impressiveness about it, but the grandeur is lost
In the mad struggle between the Latin and
Greek worshipers that changes what should be
solemn ceremony into veritable mob scene.
At the time We were there much talk was heard
OF either abandoning this ceremony greatly
modifying it, and I must confess that all of our
party agreed that unless it could be conducted
in an orderly manner it should certainly be aban-
doned.
There is an old tradition in Jerusalem that
long after Christ had arisen and departed from
the holy sepucher holy fire from heaven was
seen to descend into the sepulcher. Time has
deprived this tradition of the greater part its
weight but it must be admitted that many of

struggling around the holy sepulcher lnclosure
had lighted their candles and the church was

We were told that much better order had
been maintained on this Easter during the noIy
fire ceremony than ever before, and we could Dut

by the Turks.
We watched the line forming for a procession
where the Turkish soldiers were drawn up as
guard, much city policemen keep back the
crowds during a parade in this country. When
ever Turk got in the crowd he was well handled
and assisted to a vantage point If he cared to

not deign to look upon it. Whenever of the

Although it was midday when we arrived and
ne sun beat down mercilessly, many of these
tired pilgrims had spread a small scarf or shawl
across sticks and were sleeping in its shade.
Still they continued to flock into the city, carry
ing palm branches in their hands, until all the
highways round about Jerusalem were lined
with these weary but devout people.
One could not help plying them, while at the
time admiring their wonderful devotion
Thousands of them had walked hundreds of
miles through Russia and across inhospitable
Turkey being treated in the latter place more
like dogs than human beings. If there is one
thing above another Turk hates, something
that arouses his Mohammedan indignation, it is
the sight of these Christians, devout members OF
the Greek church, plodding afoot across the
sultan's domain with but thought in view
Ito kiss the tomb of Christ. You can only
marvel at their religious zeal which enables them
to withstand the fortunes of a long journey and
the abuse of the cold-blooded Turks.
Fortunately, quarters had been reserved
long in advance, otherwise we too, would have
been forced to camp among the pilgrims beside
the highway. AS these pilgrims come in sight
of the Holy Land they fall upon their knees, fac
ing the Jerusalem they love, so simple and beau
tifuI is their faith.
Jerusalem's places of interest during the Easter
week are many. They are made memorable
through their association with Christ on and

There is also the Via Dolorosa, or the street
of sorrows" through which Christ passed on his
Way to Calvary. Along this street are the varl-
Gus stations of the cross. recording the incidents
