who is serving a ten-year sentence in
the Federal penitentiary at Atlanta
for violation of the espionage act.
The position taken by the Presi-
dent, according to those who profess
to know his views, is that executive
clemency in such case would set a
bad precedent and would encourage
Others to oppose the Government in
the event of another war.
Debs was convicted at Cleveland
September ~, 1918, on three counts,
a jury finding him guilty of attempt
ing to incite insubordination and dis
loyalty in the military and naval
forces, attempting to obstruct recruit
ing and provoke and encourage re-
sistance to the United States and to
promote the cause of the enemy.
A pardon for Debs and others con-
victed of violating the espionage act
has been urged by number of or

Federation of Labor, which at its last

wore fairly passable clothes, neither

because of the exceeding spareness of
his frame. AS long as he remained
in the crowd. he wasn't important
enough to be studied. But soon he
turned off, through the park. and
straightway found himself alone.
The noise and hustle of the crowd
never loud or startling, but so contin-

more aware of them than of the beat

Of sounds. They are far different
from the crowds Of Bible times, for
Christianity, Islam and Judaism have

of the points Of most general interest
In the Holy City. The dominant build
ing on the temple site at the present
time Is the Mohammedan mosque OF
Omar. The mosque is erected over
a great rock about which the holy
traditions Of three religions cluster.
Before any religious edifces vera
erected In Jerusalm the old Israelites
are reputed to have made their burnt
offerings to Jehovah on this rough nat
ural altar. Over the rock Solomon
later built his world-famous temple,
and II is supposed that the Ark OF the
Covenant was set up upon the great
stone. In a small ver In The rock,
tradition says, Solomon first perform
cd the rites Of Masonry. In the mid
die ages the crusaders worshiped at
this craggy shrine, from which Titus
had torn the great temple; and when
the saracens and later the Turks came
into control Of Jerusalem, Moham-
medan mosques were erected on the
site. The ~sacredness with which the
Moslems look upon the great rock Is
! indicated by their tradition that Mo-
manned decreed that "a prayer there
is worth a thousand elsewhere"
One Of the most important OF the
purely Christian shrines In Jerusalem
Is the Church Of the Holy Sepulcher.
which Is a restoration OF a church OK

the Great, first Christian emperor OF
Rome. This church Is supposed TO
he erected over the sepulcher In which
the body OF Jesus was laid after IL
was taken from the cross. While MS
torians are not entirely satisfied that
the sepulcher Inclosed In the church
is the true burial place OF Jesus, nc

And the place where used to be the

pretty a city park as n could wish

Some day, when the city becomes
more prosperous, a pair Of swans and
a herd of deer are going to be intro

squirrel was hungry. He wished that
some one would come along with a
nut.

II there had not been, the life of Dan
Failing would have been entirely diff

things hadn't been as they were, Dan
Failing would have never gone back

and while thousands Of Jewish and
Christian pilgrims passed within It's
walls and ven took up their ABODE
there, the Noslem rule was none too
satisfactory when measured by west
ern standards. Now that the World
war has rescued Jerusalem from the
Mohammedan ally Of Germany and
has led to the placing Of all Palestine
under the mandate Of a western
power, the Jews who return to the
land Of their fathers and their

tho Supreme Council Of the Allied
Powers placed the mandate for Pales-
