JervusaLemM, Nov 2,—The Emperor and Empress of Gerinany are curtailing their visit tothe Holy Land. They have aban- doned the trip to Jericho, owing to the European complications, and it is also be- lieved they will not go to Syria. Thev have spent considerable time amid the scenes connected with Our Lord’s nativity. They have visited the Pool of Betbesda, the tradiiional sise of the Asven-~ siov, and the Garden of Getasemane, and have enjoyed the magnificent view ot the Dead Sea and Plaiv of Jericho to be had from the summit of the Mount of Olives. Attired simply and like an ordinary tourist, the Empress has charmed her hosts by her unaffected grace of manner. Emperor William, too, has appeared as a simple pilgrim, not courting demonstra~ tions. Nevertheless, the Imperial visitors have been everywhere accompanied by picturesque throngs—for the most part silent, in accorda ice with Oriental custom —consisting of swarthy Bedonins, fi rce~ looking Kurds, Jews, Levantines aod Europeans, @ heterogeneous mixture that could not be aseembled in apy other city of the world. Various reasons are ascribed for the Emperor’s curtailment of his tour, bat it is said that the main causes are the exces sive heat, and the discomfort of tray-!. Nearly forty horses have already succumb- ed; and the Emperor has, therefore, decid- ed to returo to Haifa from Jaffa by eea. It is now believed that he will go to Damascus. _- ip» Renew subscrip'iovs for the Family, Herald and Weekly Star at R H Mason’s Charlottetown.
