Gus Anderson is the owner of the cow, which he claims was killed by a motor car on October 4 last. He alleges that the car which crushed the life out of his bovias was running at a darcgerous rate of speed and the animal had no time to get off the track after the motorman rang his bell. He asks for damages in the sum of $75 The motor company has set up & counter claim, alleging that the cow in question had no right on the track and that its em- ployes had more than once warned Ander- son that unless he kept the animal off the track it would be killed. The motor com- pany also alleges that the cow was running loose on the public thoroughfare contrary to the city ordinances. It asks that it be awarded $30 of Anderson's money to com- pensate it for the damage done to the car by reason of the collision. Gravel roofing. A, H. Read. 641 Broadway.

There is, one way to tell, that is to push b and up along stairs and passage what you can see. Whatever else you fall to do in Jeru lem (and you are sure to neglect halt tho guide book admonitions) do not fail to study the streets from overhead, as many of them as possible. You can always find & viewpoint by a little searching. Take Christian street about midday, when the sun lights both sides and get your station on the arch near David street, no matter it you have to do some clambering. Now look to the north, there where the green- | 1sh dome and white minaret rise. You seo a stralght way along the base of a high wall, window-pierced, with a lower wall on | the other side, its stones old and grass- grown. Below you see two lines of filmsy awnings, tipped down like the visor of a cap, to shelter the booths beneath from the | white glare. You ses donkeys, camels, | sheep, peasants, soldiers, Greek priests, | sisters of charlty, tourists, pilgrims, Turks | and all who live in Turkey, Syrians and all | who visit Syrla, veiled women sheeted | women and beggars (you will see them all | 1t you wait a little) moving to and fro, now lost under the awnings, now coming | into the open. You can follow them be- | tween two somber archways, the one that you are on and another, yonder where a cross-wall stops your view. You can watch them until you tire. These cafe groups and the passing throng before them you will study with wonder and will put to your dragoman endless ques- | tions about them. And his knowledgo will be at once your admiration and despair. He will tell you at a glance all about anyone you point out. This man is a peasant from Stioam. He is a Christian and has just sold a load of barley. The man behind him | comes from Ramleh, elght hours distant He walked in this morning with his wife.

Yot ask anyone else if what he says s true Atk the people themselves and you will get the same Information. It is absolutely true, | though perhaps he had never set eyes on one | of these people. He simply reads for you | certain slgns of face and dress that are | plain as print to those Orientals, born and | bred to an infinite curlosity about thelr neighbor's business and an amazing power of minuto observation.

To eat Yes, to—what you call pasture.’” Pasture on the roof Yes, it is very large Many things grow there, You wish to go up?"’ It ended in our getting two Moslem lads to show us a place where it was possible 10 climb the wall with the help of cracks for hands and feet. At least it was possi- ble for them to climb, but I slipped when ebout halfway up and came down sprawling. The Moslem lads laughed heartily, which was mortifying, 8o when we finally got safely up (I was pulled and boosted) I made the dragoman translate the proverb which says that every man is good at his own game, and I offered them a plaster each to imitate me in & littlo thing that any lad in my country would do easily. They wished to try. “Stand on your left foot,” sald I, *like this. Bend your right foot up and hold it In your right hand-so.
