EN ROUTE FROM

PALESTINE. Palestine Left Behind on March 7 The Cold Weather in Jerusalem Visit Wi'h Theophilns Waldmeir Cyprus. Rhodes. Smyrna Letter Number 36. Correspondence of the Richmond Palladium. Rome, Italy, March 23, 1900. At 10 o'clock p. m. Wednesday, March : : : we sailed from Caifa, and left Palestine behind. During the firstha'f of our stay we had rainy.disagreeable weather, but the rest was nice and pleasant. The tourist is liable to go to Jerusalem without sufficient clothing. I have never been where so much is required in proiortion to the temperature. Very rarely is it freezing cold, and when it is, only for two or three hours. Snow sometimes falls, but all melts away inside of twenty-four hours. Yet it was necessary to wear all the clothing there, with the temperature at about 40 to 45 degrees, that we would wear in the coldest weather that ever occurs at home. This difference, however, there is no need of muflling ears and face to keep from freezing. Rut the body is so easily chilled. We were doubtless alone susceptible to it, because we had passed through the warmer climate of Maltra and Egypt. The natives many of them went barefooted, while we were so cold as to require all the clothing we could put on. If they become cold they still leave feet and legs bare but wrap up their necks and heads closelyWe have learned that after we left Cairo a heavy rain fell in that city. This is a rare occurrence and Cairo is not prepared for rain. There is no drainage system in the city. The water falls "in the streets and fills the lowest places, till travel is impeded. Those if our jiarty who were there say that a large force was employed using dipping buckets, and other means for getting the water out of the streets. Doubtless it was all carefully saved and used for irrigagation. We arrived at Beyrout Thursday morning quite early, and had the most difficult landing of all the journey. Our stay was brief, and we employed a carriage and drove through the city and some two or three miles beyond it. The immediate cause of this, however, was that on board the vessel we were met by Dr. Manasseh with an urgent invitation from Theophilus Waldmeier to come and visit him and his family. His name is well known in America among Friends. He was formerly connected with the mission at Brumana, some ten miles farther on, but has recently ben earnestly engaged in building a hospital for the insane at Beyrout. We were delighted to see such practical results of his efforts. In all this land there is no place for caring for the insane. The belief prevails that they are possessed of devils, and the treatment given them accords with the theory. We saw heavy chains that have been used to fasten them about the neck and feet and hands and confine them without care. This is Mohammedanism. Christianity has different rnettiortn. -- .,.--.,. ,,.:i , We found three large Substantial stone buildings; one for twenty male patients, one for twenty females and one for administration purposes!. All are beautifully located on a large hill, from which a charming view of the city is obtained. To the latter we were conducted aud introduced to Theophilus Waldmeir and family. Lunch was giveu us and some of the characteristic Arabian bread formed a part of it. We then inspected the building for males, the other being constructed like it. The latest improvements are employed. The most comfortable arrangements are provided. The most thoughtful planing has been executed. The funds have been provided wholly in a private way. The Turkish " government has done no more than to look upon it favorably and exempt it from taxation. Thanks for even that much favor from a source that scarcely knows how to be humane. It will be open to receive patients in about a mouth, and already the applications are numerous. How satisfactory to see this the beginning of philanthropy in a land that has been greatly cursed, aud to believe that the good work will continue till it is adequate to the necessities. Never before have I so much appreciated the benevolent and philanthropic institutions of America. At 1 p. m. we sailed, and for fortytwo hours continued our journey, passing the islands of Cyprus and Rhodes with numerous others, and on Saturday, March 10, at 7 a. m. we lay at anchor before Smyrna. This city enjoys the distinction of being the only one of the seven containing the seven churches addressed by St. John (Rev. 1:11) that still remains a city. It contains about 200,000 population and there is nothing in it of particular attraction. Ephesus. another of the seven cities, is reached from here by rail, and about forty of our party went to it. Nothing is there to be seen but ruins, of which some are doubtless of the Temple of Diana, the largest heathen temple of the Greeks ever erected, the second being that of Jupiter at Athens. At this place occurred the riot described in Acts 19:23 41. At Bey root. Smyrna and Constan tinople, there is the strange condition of each country having its own postofiiee. From the best we can ascer tain, it is because the Turk cannot be trusted. Of course the United States does not have one. but is made quite welcome at the Uritisn omee. It seems strange to tro through a citv and see here a Russian postoffice, there a German and yonder a French. I must tell a joke on myself. When returned from Smyrna to the boat. as 1 was descending the stairway to go to my stateroom, I was accosted by a member of the crew, who, sup posing I could not talk English, mo Creates an

tioned me back, and said: "Not allowed below." I said: "I want to go to my room." Laughing, he quickly replied: "O, I thought you were from the shore." Ell wood O. Ellis.

History Club f Earlham College. This year is the one hundredth anniversary of the organization of Indiana as a separate territory. It is just a hundred years since the name Indiana was applied to this section of the west. It seems an apnronriate timefor our people to turn their thoughts towara me one nun1 . . . . dred years of history they have been so busily making. The Indiana State Teachers' asso ciation at its last meeting appointed a committee, to promote the study of Indiana history and to encourage the collection, organization and preservation of our historical materials. In the same line Gov. Mount recently issued a proclamation calling on the neoole to use the Fourth of July as an occasion for gathering together and rehearsing the important events and incidents of our local and state history.

In telling of it he says: "I was taken with typhoid fever, that ran into pneumonia. My lungs became hardened. I was so weak I couldn't even sit up in bed. Nothing helped me. I expected to soon die of consumption, when I heard of Dr. King's New Discovery. One bottle gave great relief. I continued to use it, and now am well and strong, I can't say to much in its praise."

April Session of the Wayne County Agricnltaral sod Horticultural .Society. The regular meeting of this societ was held at the court house on the afternoon of the 14th with the yicepresident in the chair. After the minutes of the last meeting were read and approved the reports from the standiug committees were given. Agriculture There are but few fields of wheat in the county but were badly injured or are entirely dead. Many of the older farmers believe the outlook the poorest known. Hundreds of acres are being replowed and sown to oats. Some fear the ravages of the second crop of larvae of the Hessian fly. Old clover is badly heaved out, and the new has suffered severely from the bad winter and spring. Those numbers who have traveled throughout Indiana and other states find similar conditions, the best wheat being in the east and south. Live stock in exeellent condition, but rough feed and grain are getting scarce throughout the country. Pasture lands and meadows very backward. Some advocate the growing of rye for seed and pasture where wheat is uncertain. Fruits Aside from the peach crop, the prospects for fruits are excellent, even with grapes and strawberries, which suffered somewhat in some localities. The subject of spraying was again discussed, most agreeing that three applications was necessary, first, before the buds burst, second, after the bloom ' falls, and last, when fruit is set and large enoujrh to be seen. Four ounces of London purple to 100 gallons is rec ommended for spraying. Flowers Today was designated as the time for the display of potted plants and cut flowers. The great number of floral emblems furnished to funerals recently, together with the amounts supplied for Easter festivities, lessened the bulk of cut flowers on our tables. The contributors today were, Fannie Carrington, Mary Sutton, Agnes King, Hannah C. Grave and Martha Test, and con sisted of begonias, palms, hyacinths, geraniums, lilies, cut flowers, etc.. making a oeautirui appearance. 1 he cut flowers were divided and sent to our absent sick members, including Clarissa Smith of Smithfield and Joseph Ratliff, at Indiana Mineral Springs. Vegetables The different varieties of potatoes were considered and good seed tubers are in demand. The Early Uhio, carman ana ironclad were praised highly. But few favor the planting of small, entire potatoes. Dairy and Culinary Ground cob meal for feeding purposes is consid ered by many ot little value and its use is annually growing less. Miscellaneous Nathan Garwood presented a number of Lady apples; Hannah C. Grave some young plumb sprouts and some fancy.hand-vvorked garments by Martha lest. The special essay was given by K Y. Teas, embracing an early history of this society, he being one of the charter mrmbers, and who, with John J. Conly, are the only living survivors, lie also advocated a thorough fining and cultivation of the soil for owlug ctxp ma n ,' m imsGsnrm-mm young trees. He was complimented for his efforts and elected a life mem ber of the society. ine iouowing resolutions were submitted aud accepted: Whereas, It has pleased Divine Providence to remove from us our dear friends and faithful co-workers.

THE BIO SHOW TTeather Was the Only Complete Thing About tbe Pmblio Opening, Paris. April IO. Glorious weather favored the opening of tbe exposition to the general public yesterday nd immense crowds flocked into the grounds. The area of the exhibition, however, is so great that nowhere was there any crcsh. The visitors were mainly composed of provincials and foreigners. Comparatively few Parisians were to be seen. Aware of the great backwardness of the prepara lions, they remained away for the most part. - The management demanded two eat ranee tickets for morning admission, one for afternoon admission and two during the evening, when the Eiffel tower and the palaces on the Champ de Mars were illuminated. But there were absolutely no attractions provided, not even a band of music, and the people promenaded In front of the empty and In many cases unfinished btuidiaxs and Jong roads where only

ra the case of the mam avenue had the work of paring Iwen completed. Visitors who left the central arteries found their pathway filled with pitfalls and heajHMl with debris, some thoroughfares resembling mere bridle paths- The crowd. howeTer. wa perfectly pood naturetl anil took the matter philosophically. Hardly a murmur was beard anywhere in the way of rrltleistn. The moving sidewalk, access to whicu cost oO centimes, proved a great success and was jaumieu throughout the day. The American national pavilion remained closed. So also did moot of the otlier pavilions, for the excellent reason that their Interiors are still unfinished. Two hundred and fifty thousand persons visited the exposition yesterday.

But at Yautepee, In the state of Morelos. the people assembled at the parish priest's home demanding that he distribute, as usual, the costumes for the Passion Flay. This he refused to do.
