London, Feb. 18.—The care of the Holy Places brought on the Crimean war, with the siege of Sebastopol, the < battle of Inkerman of the Light ‘Brigade, just as the carc of these Holy Places, so called, had before that convulsed all Europe with the three crusades, and yet the care of these same Holy Placcs—the Holy Sepulcher at Jerusalem, the place of the Nativity at Bethlehem, and the countless other landmarks of the Christianity—are .changing hands as an incident of the present war, and almost imperceptibly because of the noise of the conflict in so many other theaters of warfare One report is that a military shoot- ing-range has been set up on Mount Calvary, the site above all others ven- erated by the Christian world os the y Place of the crucifixion. But iaquir stablishes that if this rifle-range ex < at the Gordon Calvar called, after General Gordon of Khar- tum fame, who designated it as what he believed to be the real site; though it is not the Calvary commonly ae- cepted by tradition, venerated and guarded by Pilgrims and the Church and contended for by European na- tions. This Gordon Calvary is in the outskirts of Jerusalem, some distance from the traditional site of the Holy Sepulcher. ' From a military standpoint, «ll at- tention to the German-Turkish mili- tary operations-in been ab- sorbed in the slow approach south- ward toward Igypt and the Suez can- al, that rich prize supposed to be the link between Furope and the Orient. sfut while this main military object has been going on, it has irvolved at the same time the steady occupation of the entire Holy Land as part of the fleld of preparation and-advance with military forces in control Jerusa- lem, Bethlehem, Nazareth and throughout the region of the Holy Places, and the French, Italian, Eng- lish and other custodians of these xites, expelled or interned. Seven of {he Italian custodins at Bethlehem— the site of the Nativity—have recent- ly been interned by the milita thorities and their place is to be taken by Austrian custodians. Beersheba Military E The sweep of this German-Turkish movement through the Holy Land is shown by the fact that the military railway, on which the approach to Tgypt depends, is believed to be con- Wstructed to the desert outskirts —of Beersheba. This is the same town re- ferred to in holy writ, and whigh cre- ated the Biblical phrase “from Dan to Reersheba,”’ as it is the uttermost lim- it of the Holy Land, where it merges into the desert leading to. Bgypt. It is this biblical point, Beersheba, which ‘is expected to be the military base, to which the railway will bring down it is se .
