. --S.-.v It it Wv f X AROUND THE WORLD Wars Upon Wars to Gain Control of the Holy City. Scones of Bloodshed and Death. JRRU9ALBM, PALESTINE, Miltch IO,'o3. Driven from their homes by GhciiRis Khnn, they fall upon Christian tuul Turk, sparing no one in their wild fury. These savage legions arc driven hack beyond the Caspian sea by the Egypt ians and Syrians who unite for their own safety. The Egyptians and Syrians re main victors for only a short time when the Mohammedans, chiefly from Syria, organizo and resolve to overcome or die, fall upon the city like enraged tigers and take the holy place from which they had been driven many a time. In 1517 the Ottoman sultan, Selim I, took Jerusalem and all Syiia as well as Egypt. In 1542 Solomon the Magnifi cent rebuilt the walls of the ci,ty. Over taxation producing a revolt from the Turkish yoke in 1825, the city was bombarded and brought back under the Turkish rule. Jerusalem, the historic, the beautiful, the holy city thy his tory is not all written. A conqueror Avill some day batter down the masonry of thy golden gate and deliver thee from the sceprc of the crescent. All Syria became subject to the pasha of Egypt, Mehomet AH, m 1832, and was lost to Turkey in 1840 through the interference of England, who can nonaded Acre and assisted the sultan in holding the territory. As I suggest ed in another column, England ought to beg the pardon of the nations for such a caper as that. To fully present Jerusalem would re quire volumes instead of columns as the city is mentioned eight hundred and eighteen times in the Bible. Many of the old sites mentioned in bibical history are located with exactness, while others are pointed out as tra ditional only. Being often destroyed Jerusalem is not what it was formerly. The valleys between the four hills upon which the city was originally built now contain the wreckage of many a former city. The shovel of the excavator has pene tratoU one hundred and thirty feet be low the present surface of the ground, reaching through a series of buildings one above another, proving that each later city has been located upon the ruins of its predecessor. Facts arc worth more than theories. These facts almost stagger the mind. Wcrowntten history blotted out of existence these facts would remain permanently cm bedded in mother earth as undisputed testimony of the vicissitudes visited 'city that is compact price asked for their land. Thov named a price which was accepted by the Sultan who, presenting his old tax list as so much cash, compelled the owners to vacate as the sale was com plete. He now has an acnt in charge who collects two francs (forty cents) fioin each person who visits" Jericho, the Jordan and the Dead sea. A mounted escort accompanies each party to the Jordan and makes sure that each per son pays the regulation amount. I had read much about the Turks,, Arabs and Bedouins being difficult to get along with, but I am free to say that I do not belieye a word of such trash. They may be quite nothersome to those who arc afraid of them. Since I have had more than five mouths' experience with the oriental, I know, or think I know, how to deal with him. In spite of what 1 have read about these people I am willing to iccord that the are as easily managed as any other eastern people. One day when riding with three other persons in a carriage a fellow demanded backsheesh. I made a quick move as if to step from the carriage to give him the soft side of my cane when he at once took to his heels and did not even look back to see it 1 weic coming or slacken Ins pace until one hundred yards away and the n appeared relieved to 'discover that I was not chasing him. upon this together." In Psalm exhortation: 48:12-13 is the following "Walk about Zion and go round about her; tell the towers thereof. Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces that ye may tell it to the generations fpllowing." I made a complete circuit of the city alone on foot one morning before sun rise and in the circuit I entered the city through each of its open gates. The Jaffa gate is first, then the Zion gate, the Dung gate, the Golden gate (closed), the St. Stephan's gate, the gate of Herd, the Damascus gate and the New gate. When inside the gate of Herod I noticed some steps leading to the top of the wall and, thinking that steps were made for use, I mount ed the wall, After I had finished my sightseeing from that height I began the descent only to be confronted with a Turkish soldier who seemed in a furor about something. I soon learned that no foreigner was permitted on the walls lest the city might be takon and the Turk ousted. Had I taken an American flag with me I might have waved it aloft over that Turkish fortroes and provided with a gattling gun I might have hold it against the entire garrison for I had already scaled the walls without being noticed and was able to clear myself by showing my victorious cane while tlitf many-wived, baggy-pantalooned soldier undei the Crescent had" at his command a long barreled musket that might have seen use in punching squirrels out of ovor- grown sappliugs. Turkey is to me a conundrum. She seems to be decidedly opposed to progress even up a wall. When people come to market the tax colleftor helps himself first. If any thing is left the farmer sells it for whatever he can get. Should some one discover a spring of living water among the hills of his domain it is im mediately covered to prevent a tax being levied upon it by the government. For several years the people about Jericho failed to pay their taxes. The -Sultan sent an agent to learn tho cash" The morning I walked around Jcr usdlein I sat upon the tomb in the cem etery near the wall opposite the Garden of Gcthseniane1 and waited for the sun to rise oyer the Mount of Olives. At 6:50 it rose in all its majesty as if it might have spuing out of the Church of the Ascension on Olivet. Clouds endeavored to hide it but the' were not equal' to the task. What a icminder tins scene was ot tnat otiicr event, me ascension of the Son of Righteousness nearly two thousand years ago. From this beautiful scene I looked down in the valley and there upon the Jericho road leading to Gethsemane I saw the lepers with stumps for arms, hands gone, the face a blotch of decay, eyes sunken, bodies distorted and reeking with leprous evidence each crying" "backaheesh, ya howaja." Near by are others who are not lepers, yet they would have you think they are. Cloth ed in sack-cloth or in rags used as a begging costume for many years and handed down from generation to gen eration, they accost you with tears in some cases crocodile tears each re peating the staple words the oft heard and never to be forgotten words. Some families do nothing but beg. I saw a woman whipping a little child to com pel it to beg. I am informed by a man who has resided here ten vears that many people who are well to do dress in begging attire while begging and be deck themselves with splendid apparel, ride in carriages and become lords when the begging hours are over. So astute are they in preparing themselvps in their begging garb and simulating poverty that many even deceive their own acquaintances. No one can give to all nor should one do so because many are undeserving. Whcnevor a large party is to be here not only all the old beds and carriages are drafted into service but every beggar for miles around presents himself for all he can get out of the opportunity. This ag gregation of beggars thus gives visitors a bad itupiession of the city. Many visitors are pestered, made weary and homesick on account of the multitude of begging mortals.' Some people evi dently think they must give a coin to everyone that asks lest a refusal would enrage the natives and cause them to be thrown into the valley of Jehosha phat or otherwise disabled. A few days after I arrived in Jeru salem a party of more than 400 Americans arrived titular the manage ment of F. C. Clark of Now York City. The morning after their arrival 1 was returning from the Damascus gate and saw two members of the party being imposed upon. They-appoared unable to take their own part, whereupon I came to thoir rohef, scattered their adversaries, and was looked upon most gratefully by the newly arrived Ameri cans as their deliverer.
