JERUSALEM S OLD SPRING. ,
(l»ln Cat* IlHpacIablt anil I •• ful ri|p
urn In the World.
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. Grane, I
Brunnhilde’s horse, is her faithful
trusted friend, her friend who gave up !
his aerial life among the clouds to fel
low her when she abandoned her wild
Valkyrie life to live with a mortal
'.over. When she bids farewell to Siec;
friod she gives him her noble horse—
the best that she has to give.—Our An

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.

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

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.”
