The Holy Land has its railways, jlectric lights aud American wind mills, and now Jerusalem Is about tc Eet a supply of good drinking water i In ancient times the City of David was well supplied. The remains ol aqueducts and reservoirs show this ! But since the Turk’s day the people of Jerusalem have been dependent on the scanty and often polluted accumu lations of rain water in the rock-hewn cisterns beneath their feet. Even this j supply has recently failed, owing to scarcity of rain. Distress and sick.^ss became so general that the Turkish governor has at length, been induced sanction the purchase of iron plpea to bring water from Ain ¥ai'ah, of the “aealed fountain,” at Solomon's pools, “.bout nine miles south of Jerusalem, L pipe six inches in dlsnteter w M bring 8,000 “skins” of water a day f { distribution at fountains supplied wit' faucets. Solomon, In hiu famoir “Song,” speaks of this secret spring it is asserted, when he finds that “M. beloved is like a spring shat up, e fountain sealed.” It Is a deep-brown subterranean spring, which has, from Vue time of Solomon, (lowed through j Lie arched tunnel built by him to the j distributing chamber or reservoir neai ; the northwest corner of the highest I of Solomon's pools. Half a century j ago the location of this "hidden'' spring, which wa3 still, as In Solo mon’s time, flowing into the reservoir mentioned, was unknown. The tunnel Is roofed by stones leaning against each other like an inverted V, the primi tive form of the arch, which is also seen in the great roof of the queen’s chamber of the great pyramid. The. entrance to this tunnel from the spring is one of the oldest structures in ex istence. The piping is to be laid alone the old aqueduct which formerly, from | the time of Solomon, brought this I same water to the Temple area. There | are 11 or 12 ancient, fountains here i and there in the city, long unuseo, bui now to be utilized, and from which the water may be. drawn, free to all, rj*veral taps being attached to caci .tmntain. ANIMALS IN OPERAS. T!uiy Are Omitted From Only Three of I Warner’* Operas. Wagner introduced animals into at but three of his operas (“The Flying Dutchman,” “Tristan,” and “DU Meistersinger”); horses in "Rlenzi," 1 “Tanuhauser,” “Die Walkure," and i “Die Gotterdammerung;” swans it ; "Lohengrin” and “Parsifal;" birds in j ■"Lohengrin,” "Siegfried,” and “DU j Gotterdammerung;” a ram in “DU ] Walkure;” a bear and a dragon in "Siegfried.” The swans, the dragon ! and the forest bird are expressed by j some of the most beautiful music in | the operas. Wagner has been much criticised, and was at the time much laughed at, for his use of animals in j serious opera, but not even his friends and brother musicians could argue him out of it. Other composers, it is true had occasionally introduced animal? ! into the opera, notably Mozart in the ' “Magic Flute." But in Mozart’s op ; era the animals have no essentia! con- ! nection with the story. Their intro- ; Juction is almost as accidental amt ; Irrelevant as the happenings in a vau- I deville. Wagner was the first to make I the animals part of the cast, dramati- I ;ally connected with the whole.

Fanaroo is a gambling game that i ! played with an electric fan. These | I fans are common everywhere now . and brokers, clerks and many otln '• ! rnrts of men are playing fanaroo. A a; i number of persons can enter the ! game. The fan’s four paddies arc j numbered—one, two, three and four and the gamblers place their stakes | on the number they prefer. The n the current is turned on for a moment j the fan revolves, and when It stops, | the paddle that is uppermost wins. 1! j the stakes are made a dollar each it ia j possible to win a large sum in a few j minutes at fanaroo playing, but usually the stakes are not more than a nickel, and the winnings and losings are trifling. It is a very interesting game, but the constant turning on and off of the current greatly shortens the ,'lfe of the fan. Refrigerators and Russia. TIi» "storkflsh” market of St. Petersburg booms three times a week for months together-, the venders are not particular about a difference of a few ounces, but they sell by the pud, on guesswork, and the customers carry off their purchases like bundles of fagots.

Many pictures of Columbia’s crew ia white, with toboggan caps on their heads, have been published from time to time, observes Victor Smith, but they have not lessened interest in the peculiar headgear of Harr's pets. Boys wear such caps in the streets in cold weather, plainly knitted articles cf every conceivable color, with tassoled peaks hanging down the back. Some times a pompon takes the place of tlie tassel. Columbia's crew wears toboggan caps of horizontal stripes of yellowish green and bluish b’.uck, and the general effect reminds you of Pal mer Cox’ Brownies or of watchful sprites materialized. Viniim's .4|»i»«tite for lliirwf* M« nt, Consul General Hurst, at Vienna, sends to the American department of state an account of the horse meat industria of the Austrian capital, which now calls for the slaughter of some 115.000 horses and half a hun dred donkeys anni’ully—horse meat being sold under ('use public regula tion, and as smh and not something else, and finding a market among the poor on account of its 50 per cent low er price as compared with ordinary meat. AN HONEST NAME. An VlllnolH Statesman Telia n Ciootl Story -Know Ilia Father'll Son Would Not I.It*. The Honorable* Alva Merrill of Chll iirothe, member for the Twenty-fourth District, State of Illinois House of Representatives tells an Interesting story: Some two years ago Mr. Morrill gave a testimonial stating that Dodd’s Kidney I’llls cured his rheumatism. This with Mr. Merrill’s portrait were published In thousands of papers all over the United States. On the train returning home from Springfield one day last winter were the Honorable Mr. Merrill ajid sev eral other members. After a time one of them said: "Merrill, what time do yon get to f'hlllieothe?” This attracted the attention of an old man who had been apparently awaiting some identification of Mr. Merrill and as soon as he heard the name he rushed up to his seat and extending his hand said: “You are Alva Merrill and you saved my life. 1 was most dead with Dumbngo and in an advertisement I saw your picture and your recommen dation of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. I knew your father, and I know his son would not lie, and therefore I decided to try the Pills. “I am satisfied that Dodd’s Kidney Pills and nothing else have saved my life and I have been waiting this op portunity to thank you personally, for hud I not seen your recommendation I might never have been led to use this remedy, but, thanks to Qod, through your honest name and the honest medicine which you so heart ily recommended I am still alive. "I have been watching you sinco you got on the train at Springfield and thought I recognized your face as the one I had seen in the advertisement, and as soon as this gentleman called you by name, 1 knew you were the man I had to thank.” Saying mean things is the one bad habit cultivated moot assiduously oy the average woman.
