Aune. ia the one spoken of in thu Gospel. In the pool of IJethesda, which wa "by the sh'-ep market," Mure werw rive porches and oyer the newly disi-vered basin, hewn out of the Bwlid rock, there are five arch es. A btairway cut on the rock leads down to the water, and it was down this stairway that the "impou-nt folk, of blind, halt, withered," who waited in 'the porches for the moving of the water, were carried by their friend to be -bathed in the hbahng wave. Tlie Po1 was found to be buried under several successive layers of debris. First above ll was a crypt, probably of Crusader times, which, also, had five porches with fres oes representing an anijel descend ing into and troubling the water; next is Hie small church with its apse; and next is a bryer of ruins of modem houses mixed with rubbish and sil TLe fres coes belong to the church of Crusader times, and hn.ve not'ihu to do with the pool, except tint tli;j picture of the angel descending to disturb the pool in dicates the opinion of the Crusader times as to the locality. These frescoes are much faded, but still traceable. Consul Gillman closes his letter with the ftateuieut: "This pool, I have not the sLightest doubt, is the veritable pool of Bethesda." Stamp Collectors.. This year is a great year with the ar my of stamp collectors, it being the 50th anniversary of the invention of that modern necessity the postage stamp. The first stamp was issued by Great Britain on the 6th day cf May 1840 ami was printed in black. There was about 3,000 designs submitted to the British govern meut from which to select the design for the first adhesive postage stamp. The oae accepted was by CorlSout, a French man, an.l contained a portrait of the Queen and was of the one penny denom ination the two nennv stamp did not appear until the latter part of the same month and was nrintpd in blue. The following inscription was printed on each sJieet: "In wetting the back be careful not to remove t';r. cement." The growth of the use s i .ips has been wonderful very civilized country on the face of the globe and many that are considered soni ibarbarous, have some form of a postage stamp. The diverse designs many of them very beautiful, as well as the love for the antique has created an army of collectors all over the world who have albums specially created for the saving and showiug in good form wonderful designs from all nations. We have sev eral collectors here in Plattsmouth among the boys. Charles Rhode has the largest collection represented by over 1,200 stamps, he has one of the original first stamps issued in 1S40, h also has some 2 centavo s'amps valued at 5.00 apiece 4n account of their scarcity. The high et priced stamps are some of the local atamps issued by St. Louis, NdW York and Brattleboro Vermont, they are quot ed at from $300 to :)50 each. There are several newspapers published in the interest of the stamp collector which are taken by the boys in this city. Tom Mapes, Robert Ballon, Charley Rosier, Myron Elson, Wendell Foster and Carl Fricke all haye small collections which they are adding to. A look at one of their albums is full of interest not only to a Philatelist but to any one interested in the birth and growth of a popular business adjunct. Campaign Meetings. "V. II.

And the echoes fly at a lively pace To meet with the charming cherubs of Grace. And aU Join In the tuneful song.

While the organ tells with its tuneful swells That the beaux of the city ring the bells; And echoes awaken through Christendom; Ding, doug! Come! come! New York Ledger. The Absorption of New f'nglaiut Farms. Some fifteen years ago, in the early daj-s of the Mount Desert summer travel. I met on the beach at Newport. R. I., a shipwrecked sea captain from Bar Har bor, who talked in eloquent astonish ment of the rapid eh.::ig:'3 coming over the ownership of real estate in that re gion. "It does jest beat all," he de clared. "Folks will coma along from Now York or Philadelphy Jind they'll kinder take a fancy to a man's farm. They'll end in givin' him more for it th::n he ever thought o' aslrin' for it; and th?n they'll pay him more for livin' on it in winter to t:ika c:ira of it than he ever made off of it.'- This d;ip;vx good bargain, this gain in both principal arid interest at the same time, seemed quite too much for my v.-eather beaten friend's comprehension. Vet the same process h;is been going on for years, in a manner less co?ispic-..:ons. along the whole New England coast, and through all the mountain region of the Appalachian range. Side by side with that crowding into cities in winter, a steady crowding out of cities for sum mer residence; and this is in many cuse.-i displacing the original resident of the soil and substituting new ownership. In the region where I now find myself one may look from the hills over many thousand acres, not one of which now belongs to a permanent resident of th. town. Farms h.ivo boen bought and united, one man owning COO acres, an other 700, and so on. in a region where 200 acres was once regarded as a large farm. Harper's Bazar. Pale Sii rsap:irill:i Sirup. There is a handsome new drug store up in Fourteenth street where they sell soda water aad disjx-l illusions all for five cents a glass. If yon ask the soda water clerk for sarsaparilla sodi water he will give you a glass cf foamy water ! that is almost colorless of a pearly transparent, like that of -a glass of vanilla soda water. It looks no more like the rich, brown colored drink that people expect to get when the ask for sarsnparilla soda water than chalk does. If 3'ou remark on the nnacenstomed ap pearance of the drink tie will say to you, as he says to hnrdreds of people who ask for that particular kind of soda wa Uv every day, that pure sarsaparilla siii'.p is colorless. "People think," he says, "that sarsaparilla. being "made of routs, iiitust be brown. Perhaps years ;;.;). when the sirup was made by throw ing a lot of unwashed roots in a dirty kettle and boiling them over a smoky fire in th" wood.", there wp.s dirt enough in the compound to make it brown. Nowadays the process is cleaner and the sirup is colorless. But people think sarsapariila ought to be brown, and so people color it with burnt sugar or lico rice. We don't." Washington Post, LooKine fur Jiiff Prices. There were some curious incident?) noted near the (xriinl Central station while (.he stri'.:e was in progress. One of the icri;,- delayed trains ha l just come in one evening and the passengers were streaming ont of the station when one of them stepped up to a bystander and ad dressed him: "Look here.'" said the trav eler, "can you tell me where is the most expensive restaurant in this town?" "The most expensive!" quoth the one addressed in surprise. "Yes, sir; that's just what 1 want. While our train was blocked cut on the road we could get very little to eat and I got used to paying top rates. Some body brought along a basket of sand wiches railroad sandwiches, sir and sold them out at $1 apiece. We bought em we had to buy 'em or go hungry. Now, 1 want to get back to my regular. prices by degrees. So you don't know which is the most expensive restaurant? Well, I'll go down to Delmonico's and chr.nca it, anyway." The ,peal"t:t f being a prosperous looking person, probably carried out his threat. New York Times.
