BRITISH CAPTURE
ANCIENT JERUSALEM
After 1900 Years of Moham-
medan Rule, City is in Chris
tian Hands. Exceeds Fall of
Bagdad in Importance.

Jerusalem is in the hands of the
British after having been for virtually
1900 years in control of Moslems.
The Holy City of the Christian re-
ligion capitulated to General Allenby's
forces. consisting of British, French
and Italian troops, after it had been
entirely surrounded and with it's fall
seemed swept away the dream OF the
Germans and the Turks of driving
southwark through Palestine captur-
ing the Sue2 Canal and invading Egypt
Since the recent taking of the town
of Jaffa, on the Mediterranean and the
gradual closing in on Jerusalem by the
allied forces the fall of the ancient
city daily had been anticipated. 1t was
not the lack of strength that prevented
it's capture but rather desire of Gen
eral Allenby to carry out his plan OF
enveloping the city and forcing It's
capitulation as frontal attack would
have endangered the numerous sacred
places inside the city and its environs.
Andrew Bonar Law chancellor Of the
,excheauer, announced IN the house OF
commons Monday that Jerusalem af5er
being surrounded on all sides by the
British troops, had surrendered.
The chancellor said British French
and Mohammedan representatives were
on the way to Jerusalem to safeguard
the holy places.
Exceeds Fall of Bagdad.
In sentimental and romantic aspect
tbe caut1lre of Jerusalem far exceeds
even the fall of fable crowned Bagdad.
The modern city of Jerusalem contains
about $4,000 inhabitants and is the
home Of pestilence, filth and feVers
but in historic interest 1t naturally
surpasses, to the Christian world. all
the places on earth. Since the days
when David wrested 1t from the hands
of Jebusites to make it the capital OF
the Jewish race, Jerusalem has been
the prize and prey of half the races OF
the world. It has passed successfully
into the hands of the Assyrians, BABY
lonians. Greek Romans, Persians
Arabs, Turks, the motley crowds OF the
crusaders, finally to fall before the de-
scendants of Richard the Lion Hearted
who strove in vain for its possession
more than 700 years ago.

SINGERS,
ATTENTION.!

With apologies to Tennyson for the
above, we wish to ask all singers at
Camp Hancock to meet for a big song
fest on Sunday afternoon at 2:15, in
what was known as the Red Triangle
tent on the postoffice road, near the
Engineers.
Professor Tebbs, chorus director for
Camp Hancock, has conceived the idea
of having a big community sing for
the next two Sundays and would like
to meet all the singers for the express
purpose Of learning some Christmas
carols, to be sung at the Christmas
tree celebration.
The big tent will hold about 1900
and it is expected that every inch of
space will be filled. Come early if you
want a seat. The sing song will not
last more chan one hour, as Professor
Tebbs must be in Augusta to lead the
singing at the Grand theater commu-

DIVISION or CAVALRY
WILL Be ORGANIZED
viii Have II, 900 Men. First
Since Days of Civil War.
Forming at Ell Paso.

A, Washington dispatch says that
division of regular cavalry is, being form
ed at lei Paso-the first since. the days
of the Civil war. The division win be
organized under the old army plan with
about 1900 men.
The project is in preparation for
eventualities abroad and has no signifi-
canoe so far as the Mexican border pa
troi is concerned. 1t is part of the reg
ular plan Of the department, for the
tactical organization of the expanded
regular army. -
There is no present intention Of EN-,
ploying mounted troops with General
Pershings forces. although the general
officer is reported to have recommended
the creation of from three to five cav
airy division. Employment by General
Byng, leader of the recent great British
surprise attack. of mounted troops. points
the way to the conclusion that it may
be advisable later, when the Transported
ton situation is easier, to send over cav
airy in such numbers as the American
staff may think wise.
1t was emphasized that formation OF
the cavalry division at lei Paso reflected
no uneasiness as to the border situation.
Winter has required the withdrawal of
the mounted troops from the northern

PLAIN DEALING, LOUISIANA
Desert Of Sahara.

At one time, some twoscore years
ago, some Englishmen proposed to di.
a canal OIL the northwest coast of At
rica, south of Morocco, to admit the
waters Of the Atlantic into the Sahara
desert. It was argued that great
inland sea would thus be created and
that ocean vessels might steam into
Africa and pick up cargoes along the
western Sudan. This fine idea was
based upon the prevalent notion that
most Of the desert surface was much
below sen level. It was discovered
later that most Of the desert stands
high aboye the sea. The French, who
have been the greatest explorers Of the
lesert, have corrected other false ideas
about the desert. The most conspic-
uous and persistent Of these errors has
been the notion that the desert II

ters, she valued her fathers peace Of
mind much above any abstract truth
and that she would far rather have
seen him live in error happily than
grow in knowledge by a process of dis
tressing doubt. So, even if Kerwin had
been altogether in the right, she would
have feared him little less. What, then,
would have been Her sentiments toward
him coming as the apostle Of the drear-
lest falsehood which ever entered the
world?
I learned that Kerwin had been a
regular member of Mr.. Butterfeld's
church for thirty years and that his
skepticism was one of those open Sc
crets which are to be found in every
New England town. The man was
valued for his honesty, which had be-
come superstition in that region.

a mere superficial oddity, harmless

case had been in my charge the letters
were pinned together AND respectfully
referred'' to me.
Writing from her fathers dictation,
Miss Butterfeld penAed these words:
..For the first time in a long life feel
relief from the pressure Of pecuniary

Writing over her own signature, she
expressed this opinion: my father
seems very much worried. and l am
sure that he exhausts himself discuss
ing stocks and investments with Mr..
Kerwin, the banker. He is at our
house almost every evening and some
times stays quite late"
The implication was that the relief
which Mr. Butterfield supposed he felt
was merely a delusion and that he
really was more disturbed in mind by
bis recent acquisition than he had eyer
been BY narrow circumstances.
After considerable thought upon this
matter I decided to 60 to DENLY for p

Years ago the Rev. Samuel Butter

in u tangled litigation over an estate.

$4,000. but his chance of getting it was
extremely slender. Very wisely, he dis

The latest addition, fresh from the

We saw Mr. Butterfield not oftener
than twice year thereafter during the
tedious progress of the suit. He would
come down to Boston and lunch with
my father and me, and occasionally he

and they would go back to the little

upon the fine time that they had had.
At last the suit was settled very ad-
vantageously for our client, but. to our
great regret, he could not come to Bos-
ton to enjoy the little celebration which
we had planned. He wrote, by his
daughters hand, that the inclemency
of the winter had drawn heavily upon
his strength and that he feared to
tempt the rigors Of March away from
his old. familiar shelter.
1t appeared that Mr.. Butterield, who
had never before been more than few
hundred dollars ahead of the world,
regarded his new fortune timidly and
would value our advice in regard to it's
investment. He had come to an age
where earthly treasure could no longer
