The ‘“Kaaba'’ and the Holy Carpet.
The “‘holy carpet,”’ which has just been
captured by the Bedouins while on its way
from Cairo to the great mosque at Mecca,
is really a covering for the ‘Kaaba,’ or
‘‘House of the Sacred Black Stone,’’ that
stands in the courtyard of the mosque.
The ‘‘Kaaba’ which is Arabic for cube
house, is an oblong, massive structure built
of fine gray granite, with a flat roof, and
has the appearance of a perfect cube; hence
its name. The only door is on the north
side; it is about seven feet from the ground
and is coated with silver. The Moslems
believe that the original Kaaba was built
in heaven two thousand years before the
creation of the world, and at the command
of the Almighty, angels walked around it
in adoration. Furthermore, they said that
Adam built the first Kaaba on earth, on
its present site, directly under the one in
heaven. His sons repaired it, and
Abraham rebuilt it after the Deluge.
He needed a stone to fix in the
corner, so he sent Ishmael out for one. The
lad met the Angel Gabriel, who gave him
the famous ‘‘black stone,’”’ which Moslems
believe was once white but has become
black on account of human sins. Long
before the time of Mahomet, the Kaaba
was a place of worship for the idolatrous
Arabs, and in it they had no less than
three hundred and sixty idols, one for each
day of the Arabian year. The Arabs are
naturally a most superstitious race, and
when Mahomet found, after destroying the
idols, that the custom of worshipping and
making pilgrimages was not likely to cease,
like a wise man he grafted its worship on
to his own ‘‘ism,” and now the pious
Mussulmans still continue to make pil-
grimages from all parts of the world to the
shrine of the old Arabs. The ‘holy car-
pet’’ is the covering of the Kaaba and is
renewed annually, and is made at the ex-
pense of the Egyptian government, and is
forwarded to them with great ceremonies.
This year, while being sent from Cairo to
the great mosque at Mecca it was captured
by the Bedouins, who are holding it for a
ransom of $3,000. It is made of eight
pieces and the material is of coarse, black
damask. —Scientific American.
Dreyfus’ Children.
On Every Holiday They Receive Presents from an
Unknown.
In reading of the affair which has upset
the equilibrium of France for the last three
years, writes a correspondent of the Chicago
Record, one is apt to think little of the fa-
miliar side of the case, the daily scenes,
the heartaches, the suffering in the home
of Captain Dreyfus. An Antwerp mer-
chant, just returned from Paris, says that.
being in Paris on business recently, he vis-
ited the house of some friends of the Drey-
fus family, who told him that every year
Captain Dreyfus’ children receive on New
Year’s Day, Easter, St. Nicholas’ Day and
Christmas a large case containing many
pounds of beautiful presents. With each
case comes the simple inscription, ‘‘From
papa.’’
The donor remains always anonymous,
his object being to make the innocent
children believe their father really sent the
gifts. This has been kept up ever since
the day when the martyr left his country
in exile.
——The Republican papers are citing
the ‘‘pig iron hoom’’—increased demand
and increased prices—as an evidence of Re-
publican prosperity, but G. H. Hull in an
article entitled ‘*Pig Iron and Prosperity,’’
published in the July number of the North
American Review, shows that the present
advance is merely a repetition of former
experiences which occurred at certain in-
tervals, approximating 10 years apart, thus
1854, 1864, 1872, 1880, 1889 and 1899.
Each recurring period of increase in price
has presented some entirely new features,
and it is very hazardous to predict future
developments on the basis of past exper-
ience. For example, production at the
present rate would have entirely swamped
the markets of the world in any of the pre-
vious periods of rising prices; but the fig-
ures show that the present consumption
exceeds the production. Fifty years ago
the consumption of pig iron was equivalent
to about 100 pounds per head of popula-
tion. Notwithstanding the enormous in-
crease in population since that time, the
consumption of pig iron per head has in-
creased four-fold.
——General Fuanston, of Kansas, who
comes out of the Philippine campaign the
popular hero of the fighting, is guilty of
‘‘treasonable’’ sentiments in a recent letter.
He says:
‘Strange as it may seem, I am almost a
‘peace-at-any-price’ man. When life and
property can be saved, it is almost a crime
not to follow that rule, whatever the cir-
cumstances arguing against it. I am a
Republican, but I am an anti-expansionist,
though not a bitter one. Big syndicates
and capitalists will be greatly benefited by
the retention of these islands, but outside
of a few exceptional individual cases I can
see no advantage in their possession by the
United States. The islands are so thickly
populated and labor so cheap there certain-
ly is no inducement for the American la-
borer.”
It is a fact, so far as any benefit to this
country is concerned, that we are lavishing
blood and treasure, as Colonel Funston
says, for ‘‘big syndicaters and capitalists.”
American labor has no share, save to enlist
and pay taxes.
STORY OF A SLAVE.—To be bound hand
and foot for years by the chains of disease
is the worst form of slavery. George D.
Williams, of Manchester, Mich., tells how
such a slave was made free. He says:
“My wife has been so helpless for five
years that she could not turn over in bed
alone. After using two bottles of Electric
Bitters, she is wonderfully improved and
able to do her own work.”” This supreme
remedy for female diseases quickly cures
nervousness, sleeplessness, nfelancholy,
headache, backache, fainting and dizzy
spells. This miracle-working medicine is
a godsend to weak, sickly, run down peo-
ple. Every bottle guaranteed. Only 50
cents. Sold by F. Potts Green, druggist.
——The gas and oil belt of the Pine Creek
oil field, at Gaines, as now defined, is 2 miles
long and from 1,000 to 1,600 feet wide. It
‘runs due east and west.
There are now about 10,000 barrels
of oil in storage at the pumping station
waiting the completion of the pipe line.
All of the available territory for miles in
every direction is under lease and will be
tested. :
——You ought to take the WATCHMAN.
Tennessean Weighed 1,000 Prounds.
When it comes to large men the Demo-
crat is able to put Miles Darden, who lived in
Henderson Co., Tenn , against any of them.
He was born in Northampton county, N.
C., Nov. 7th, 1799; was married to Mary
Jenkins in 1820. By this marriege he had
seven children, and by his second marriage
four children. He moved from North
Carolina to West Tennessee in 1829 and
died six miles west of Lexington in 1857.
He was 7 feet 6 inches high, and in 1845
weighed over 1,000 pounds. In 1839 his
coat was buttoned around three men, each
weighing over 200 pounds, and they walk-
ed across the public square at Lexington,
Tenn. In 1850 it required 13} yards of
cloth one yard wide to make him a coat.
His coffin was 8 feet long, 35 inches deep,
32 inches across the head and 14 inches
across the feet. It took twenty-four yards
of black velvet to cover it. His hat meas-
ured 27 inches around the crown and is
now in possession of the State Historical
society at Nashville. He was a Mason and
belonged to the Baptist church.
An Intellectual Test.
‘Your name?”
‘Jan Przybskalzi.”’
‘‘How long have you heen in this coun-
try?’’
“Vilhelm MicKinley.”
“Who wrote the Declaration of Inde-
pendence?’’
“Congress.”
“Do you swear to obey the laws of this
nation ?"’
‘‘Jorge Vashingtin.”’
*‘What form of government is this?’
‘‘Eberyhem Linking.’
‘“That will do. . You’re accepted. Step
down, I say.”
“Der Star Springled Benner!’
‘‘Don’t you understand me? I told you
you were all right.”’
‘‘Dree cheerz Heep heep, hooray !’’
Is this an examination for admission to
citizenship? No, gentle reader, the man
wants to be a soldier, and our great and
good government has declared that a sol-
dier needn’t bave any more brains than a
voter.
-——A dispatch from Lancaster, in this
State, announces that Cadet Sigismund G.
Albert, of that county, has been forced to
resign at West Point hecause he was a
Hebrew and was subjected to systematic
persecution which made life at the academy
almost unendurable.”” This being the
state of affairs at our great National mili-
tary school, supported by the money of
Jews as well as of Gentiles, we might as
well restrain our indignation at the Jew-
baiting of Captain Dreyfus. It is stated,
however, that the Lancaster cadet made
himself objectionable to his cadet comrades
for other reasons than his faith. The truth
of the matter should be ascertained.
An Immense Grape Vine.
Many years ago, Nathaniel Blint, for
thirty-two years a tenant on Dr. Horace
Livingood’s farm in North Heidleberg town-
ship, Berks county, planted a little grape
stalk. It grew and thrived, and to-day
the parent stem measures three feet four
and one-half inches in circumference. Dur-
ing the thirty two years of its life it has
been spreading out, and to-day it covers an
area of 600 feet. The vinefrom the ground
to the place its branches begin measures
six feet, and has the appearance of a tree.
The main arbor is 125 feet long and twenty-
five feet wide, with side arbors of one-
fourth the size.
