" THE HOLY OITT.'
Some Intereating Information Not to b«
Found in Band a j School Books.
It is refreshing to occasionally
read the report of a traveler who
has visited 1''the holy land," that
can describe the country with stime
regard to truth. The most of 'the
current literature on the subject be-
fore Mark Twain paid the country a
visit and gave to the world his Inno-
cents Abroad, was that turnished by
clergymen who saw everything
through glasses colored by religious
prejudice and self-interest. Mr.
Harry Macdonald has recently visit-
ed this historic ground, and has
communicated his experience in the
"holy city" to the Twentieth Cen-
tury, from which the Gazetteer
has taken the following interesting
extracts:
"Its streets are dirty, narrow;
winding, ill-paved, steep lanes reek-
ing with indescribable,obscene filth,
and which are impossible to traverse
with any kind of vehicle. Not a
well nor a drop of living water is, or
ever was, within its air-infected
walls, no nearer in any direction
than two miles and a halt, and that
a small ill-smelling pool. Water is
now and always has been obtained
by saving the rain in cisterns and
damming up the ravines by which
the city is surrounded. Water is
not now and probably never was
used tor cleansing purposes; it is
sccioped up into goat skins from
pools by filthy savages, carried into
the city on camels and donkeys, and
sold for two piastres a skin. The
European filters his before drinking.
"Within the wall of this city,
which only the most malignant sar-
casm could dub 'holy,' are more re-
pulsive wretchedness, heatt-broken
: degradation, hideous, leper-deform-
ed, sore-eyed poverty, conscious,
sordid imposture, blind fanaticism,
and putrid filth, than any other spot
of similar dimensions on this trouble-
laden planet. ,
"Here is the place to anatomize
all the baser qualities of mankind.
Originally a robber stronghold, even
in David's time it was little better
than a hill fort, the wild hold of a
successful sheik. It could not, have
been much better in Solomon's
time, and alter his death, on the dis-
ruption of the little kingdom, it lost
its importance until Herod's time,
when it achieved its greatest mag-
nificence, but which did not exceed
in character or dimensions the city
of the present day,* Since the days
ot Jesus, it has been pinched by
famines, desolated by wars, bloodied
by massacres, and its buildings de-
stroyed time and again, but notwith-
standing all this the credulous pil-
grim is shown, by imposture, the
exact places where events occurred
ttyit were ot trifling importance at
the time, more than eighteen cen-
tujries ago. A man ^ould throw a
stone the entire distance' of the 'Via
Dolorosa,' yet in this small space
the pilgrim is shown Pilate's house
and judgment seat; where Jesus
leaned his shoulder against a house
and left the impression in the solid
rock ; where he met his mother; the
house of St. Veronica, upon whose
handkerchief he left the imprint of
his face ; the house of Div^s and the
stone upon which Lazarus s^t; whjere
Simeon was compelled to "take (the
cross, and the sepulcher. A child
would ask how this narrow lane,
with its sharp turns, and numerous
windings, happens to correspond sol
exactly with the ancient one, or how
arches, walls, houses and stones
could remain intact and be identified
after the total destruction of the city
by the Romans."
The reader will remember that
Jerusalem was twice destroyed, first
under Titus and then under Had-
rian. It afterwards underwent sieges
both from moslems and christians.
Mr. Macdonald continues:
"But the church of the holy sep-
ulcher is where credulity is stuffed to
more than repletion. Within this
church is shown some of the earth
from which Adam was made; also
his grave; a pillar marking the ex-
act center of the earth as pointed out
by Jesus; a silver cup used at the
last supper; the .spot where Abra-
ham offered up the ram in the place
of Isaac, and the bush in which the
ram was caught; the stone on which
John the Baptist was beheaded ; the
place where the two thieves v ere
crucified, and the hole in which the
true cross stood The pillar to
which Jesus was bound is enclosed
in a screen with a hole in it, through
which the pious thrust a stick, the
application of which will cure dis
ease. A small marble slab, with an
aperture two inches wide, is shown
as the rock that was rent in twain.
The sepulcher is enclosed inside a
little marble chapel about seven feet
square; on one side of which is the
stole couch upon which Jesus is said
to have been laid. On the end of
the couch is a money plate, which I
noticed was .veil supplied with coin
and bills. 1 turned to look at the
tawdry, tinsel ornament of the place,
and the attendant priest, thinking 1
was going out without giving the
customary fee, tapped me 011 ^he
shoulder and pointed suggestively at
the plate. Thjs is the secret of all
the holy places."
Mr. Macdonald declares that "110
critical person can believe that the
crucifixion took place on the ground
indicated," and that "the entire
country is filled with fictitious places
ot importance to Christianity, and
which are a source of revenue to
their custodians. The account of
the different sacred places around
Jerusalem would be a monotonous
recital of fraud and imposture. At
the church of the asi~ nsion is shown
where the foot of ^sus made an im-
pression on a sunt! rock as he ascend-
ed to heaven. At the chapel of the
assumption of the virgin is the rock
bearing the marks of the girdle she
let fall to convince St. Thomas:
anotiier shows the imprint of the foot
of the rooster that crew at Peter's
denial; in the garden of Gethse
mane, a place about fifty yards
square, the priest shows the impres-
sion in the rock of the bodies ol the
disciples who fell asleep while Jesus
prayed. The garden beiongs to the
Roman church, but the Gree^
church, enraged at the monopoly,
have started an opposition one.
They do not care to exhibit it much
yet, as they d ish to wait a few years
until the trees look older.
"A deep grotto at Bethlehem is
shown as the birthplace ot Jesus,
and within a few feet of the stone
manger, in which lies a dressed doll
to represent Jesus, is a small hole
where jo,000 of the children said to
have been massacred bv Herod were
thrown. Whether Jesus was born
at Bethlehem or Nazareth is a mat-
ter tor conjecture, but this grotto
was certainly never a stable, unless
the animals were miraculously en-
dowed with wings.
"Bethany, where Jesus often so-
journed with his friend Lazarus, is
a typical dirty, disease-tortured
Palestine villiage, looking much the
same now as it did when Jesus visit,-
ed it. The house of La/arus is 011
an elevation, and while my drago-
man was procuring the key, I took a
position which enabled me to over-
look the villape. The houses are
dens without furniture, fireplaces or
windows, with fiat-topped roots,
upon which most of the women were
sitting, picking the vermin from their
tattered garments. A party of men
were sitting around a vessel eating
their dinner, each one thrusting his
grimy unwashed hand into the com-
mon dish, occasionally stirring the
food with their fingers, and convey-
ing it in handfuls to their mouths,
the same as their ancestors did nine-
teen centuries ago."

THINGS THAT HURT.
We sell our wheat in car loads to
Eastern mills and buy it back as
flour by the hundred pounds.
We sell our broom corn by the
ton and buy it back by the broom.
Onr cotton goes out by the bale,
and is sold back to us a handetchies
at a time.
Our wool is sold by .the ton and
resold to us by the yard.
We sell our beef by the herd and
buv it back by the steak.
Our tine timber falls down and
rots while we buy our axe handles
in Kansas City. *
We breed ourtmares to any kind
of scrub cayuse taml send to Mss-
„souri tor our mules.
We could raise hogicheaper than
any country on earth,* and yet we
buy pur bacon in Chicago
A large portion of the state is ad-
mirably adapted to the growth of
sugar cane, but we wouldn't have
molasses unless it came from New
Orleans.
Our hdls our full of iron, but we
couldn't use a plow that vvasn t made
in Illinois.
The material of which our cloth-
ing is made grows in the south but
we prefer to pay the people of the
east to sew this material together.
Texas is one of the heaviest hide
producing states in the Onion, but
the , money we'pay for boots and
shoes goes to the people of some
other country. ■ j
We would import our wives and
children if we had to pay for them.
We would have our biscuits baked
in Kansas City if our wives were hot
more sensible and enterprising thai}
i we are.
We buv ttie education of our chil-
dren in the north when we have a
better article at home.
Having the finest climate on earth
we would use nothing but the
weather of other states, it there was
any way for railroads and express
companies to make anything by
hauling it to us.
We have the most abundant crops
ever grOwu in the state but will be
buying our supplies in the north be-
fore January.
Three to five tons of grapes may
be raised to the acre but those who
enjoy a glass of wine drink painted
decoctions from California—or any-
where else so it isn't in Texas.
We rush our products off in bulk
on a crowded market and buy by
piecemeal when the dealers have
disposed of the surplus we have
rushed upon them.
We have the most varied re-
sources on earth, among which may
be mentioned a few hundred politi-
cians who get together every two
years and make laws to retard the
development of the other resources.
We do not have to import anv
financial idiots. The woods are full
! of them and they are in power.
A SMART POX.
Rev. j. Murray, in his work on
the creation, relates that on one oc-
casion an acquaintance of his was
shooting wild ducks. On reaching
a bend of the stream he saw six wild
geese out of range. lie crouched
down, in the hope that they would
presently come nearer. While thus
concealed he observed a fox stealing
down to the bank, on reaching
.Which he remained motionless, with
one eye fixed 011 the geese. At
length he retired, but presently re-
appeared, carrying in his mouth a
very large bundle of inoss. He en-
tered the water silently, sunk him-
self; and then, keeping the moss
above the water and himself con
cealed, he lloated among the gees*.
Suddenly one of them was drawn
tinder tiie wafer, and the fox soon
appeared on the bank with the goose
on his back. Close to the water's
edge lie found a hole caused by the
uprooting of a tree. This hole he
cleared out and enlarged, placed the
goose at the bottom of it and cover-
ed his prize with leaves and dry-
litter, ot which there was abundance
close at hand. The fox then took
his departure, ami the; interested
watcher went to the holle and re-
moved the £oost\ taking care to re-
store things to their former appear-
ance. Then he resolved to observe
what followed. In about half an
hour the iox returned in company
with another. They went straight to
the place Where the goose had been
buried and removed the earth. No
goose there. They >stood Looking at
e.aa:h other for some time, and then
suddenly the second fox] attacked,
tlje other most furiously, as it en-
raged by having a trick played upon
him.

An Ex-Editor at the Head of a Mexican
Revolution.
In the tali of t$S6, savs an Eagle
Pass specia'. Catrina Garza, whose
name is now in the mouth of every
one as the leader of a revolutionarv
movement against the established
government of Mexico, came to
Eagle Pass and started a paper
which he called Commercio Mexi-
cana. Being a man of good educa-
tion and pleavant address, he soon
built up a good paving business, and
had the hearty support of the citi-
zens in his efforts to build up trade
t-erween the two republics. In
February, 1SS7, he began a sys-
tematic attack upon the public and
private character of Jose M. Garza
Galan, the governor of the state of
Cohahuila, which was Kept up, until
the name of his paper was changed
to La Libre Pensador. Then his
attacks became more virulent, and
believing himself safe from the law-
he gave lull vent to h's criticisms in
the most scathing language. Gov.
Galan was. infuriated and attempted
to extradite him for the offense of
libel, but was informed that while
our authorities wotild not surrender
him they would, upon the filling of
the proper informSltioii, proceed
against him under the libel law of
Texas. Upon this nine different
complaints were filed, seven of
which were dismissed tor lack ot
proper ~ information. Upon the
other two he was tried and sentenced
to one day in jail for one offense
and thirty days in jail for the other,
and served gipt,.his terms in jail in
accordance,^with the edicts of the
court. j
Shortly -afterward five men came
over from l5iedras Negras With the
avowed purpose of killing Garza.
He heard ot their mission, hunted
them up anil asked them to proceed
in their undertaking. They entered
a denial and he then invited them up
to the bai, treated them and bade
them good night.
Later on, when the Cutting mat-
ter was engaging the attention ot.
the two governments, a man called
Arresurias was kidnapped by the
authorities of Piedras Negras, work-
ing with the officials of Maverick
county, and illegally taken to Mexi-
co. The second day afterward he
was taken out by the military
authorities and shot in'the face of
the protests of the American consul,
who claimed him as an American
citizen. Feeling was running* high
on this side of the river and Garza,
through his paper, espoused, the
cause of the Mexican authorities.
He was waited upon by a. committee
who had been appointed by a
minute company that had been
organized and given two hours tt>
leave the town. He refused to go
and demanded their authority lor
their proceedings. The next issue
of his paper was made up of an ac-
count ot his visitors, whom he char-
acterized as; saloon heroes, and
further stated that they would charge
the bar of Billy Hogan with a great
deal more ^intrepidity than a real
enemy. 1
Wheri it considered that this oc-
curred in the Jmriah days of Eagle
Pass, and that he jhad a class of- nien
to deal with as desperate as himself,
the utter fearlessness of the man can
be seen lie possessed in a rare
degree [that gift so seldom found
among the Mexican people, even ot
the higher class, and that was his
command of language and extem-
pore oratory. Of commanding form,
ins eye kindles as he enters into his
subject, and few can listen to his im-
passioned address without being im-
pressed with the earnestness of the
than.
As to his sincerity even in his
most desperate undertakings there is
little dbubt. He sees a wrong or an
imaginary wrong being committed
and he goes ] to work with all the
power of intellect and language to
suppress it without considering the
possibility of a greater evil spring-
ing up in place of it. Garza is an
extreme radical and if a revolution-
ary movement should ever gain
sufficient headway to be of national
importance he would, if his. discre-
tion was equal to his valor, soon be-
come famous as one of the most dar-
ing ot the leaders against the govern-
ment and the one most to be feared.
Dr. West, a collector of curios at
Antigonish, Nova Scotia, is entitled

How Various Nations Sleep.
In the tropics men sleep in ham-
mocks or upon mats of grass. The
East Indian unrolls his light port-
able charpoy or mattress, which in
the morning is again rolled together
and carried awav with him.
The Japanese lie upon matting
with a stiff, uncomfortable neck rest.
The Chinese use low bedsteads,
often elaborately carved,, and sup-
porting only mats or coverlids.
A peculiarity ot the German bed
is its shot tness; and besides that it
frequently consists in a part ot a
large down pillow, or upper mat-
tress, which spreads over the person,
aud usually answers the purpose of
ail of the other ordinary bed cloth-
ing combined.
In England the old four-post bed-
stead is still the pride of the nation,
but'the iron or brass beadsted is fast
becoming universal.
The English beds are the largest
in the world. t
The ancient Greek£ and Romans
had their beds supported on frames,
but not flat like ours.
The Egyptians had a couch ot pe-
culiar shape, more like an old-fash-
ioned cha:r, with bellow back and
seat.
