Sleeplessness Is a
Sign of Nerve Trou

Be Looked To.
There are three difterent manifesta
tions of sleeplessness.
First, hardly to sleep a wink all night,
second, to lie awake a long time before
falling asleep; third, to fall asleep soon,
waking up after several hours and then
find it hard to sleep again.
They mean that somewhere In the

To right It, take Dr. Miles’ Nervine.
Some other symptoms of nerve trou

They indicate diseases which may lead
to Epilepsy, Fits, St. Vitus’ Dance,

(the most numerous) of the population
of Syria and Palestine, wo wish to give
'our readers a bird’s-eye view of three
other notable classes of people, as pre
pared by the Rev. Arthur ,J. Brown, D.
D., Secretary of the Northern Presby
terian Board of Foreign Missions, in an
official report after a personal visitation
of tiie Syrian Mission field, 0110 of the
most exact and sucoiuot representations
of tire present stato of affairs, though
made in 1002.
After speaking at length upou the
Moslem population and influence he
thus prooeeds:
THE JEWS.
“The Jews form the second class.
Relatively they are not numerous.
There are but 211,000 in Syria and 46,081
in Palestine, of whom 22,000 are in
Jerusalem. I have great respeot for the
intelligent and thrifty Jews in other
lands, but it is impossible to have any
tor those who now reside as aliens in
their ancient heritage. In 1840, the
great Hebrew philanthropist, Sir Moses
Moiitefiore, discussed witli Mohammed
Ali a plan for tire return of the Jews to
Palestine, and such prominent person
ages as Ludwig August Frankel, Beu-
jarnin Disraeli, George Eliot, Baron
Edmond de Rothschild, Dr. Max Nor-
dau and others have more or less strong-
> ly favored the scheme. The latest de
velopment of the idea is by Dr. Theo
dore Herzl, the Vienna editor, who now
champions ‘the Zionist Movement.’ He
thus outlines iris so heme for a Jewish
state;
‘We must obtain the sovereignty over
Palestine—our never to bo forgotten
historical home. At the head of the
movement will be two great and power
ful ageuts—tiie Society of Jews and the
which is being pursued with a sjieciul
object, having none of tiie elements
whioh made the old Phoenician colonies
and tiie modern Anglo-Saxon colonies
successful. The trend of Jewish migra
tion is westward, and further than ever
from the old land of Israel. There are
about four times as many Jews now in
New York City as there are in the
whole of Palestine. Tens of thousands
ure going to the Argentine Republic in
South America. They seem to be more
and more torn loose from territorial
attachments.’
There is no lack of Protestant effort
to convert tiie Jews of Palestine and
Syria, and I visited witli sympathetic
interest several of tiie costly establish
ments whioh have been erected by the
Christians of Europe, particularly of
Great Britain. Bat the results are pain
fully small. Tiie fanatical, meudioaut
Jews of tiie once Promised Laud are
about tiie most hopeloss missionary
field that can be imagined. Tiie curse
is plainly oil them and their children.
THE CHRISTIANS.
The Christians form tiie third class.
They are divided into a motley variety
of Beets. Armenians, some 00,000;
Druzes in thu Lebanon and Anti-Leba
non Mountains, who seceded from Islam
in the 11th century, who bitterly hate
and trequcntly fight their parent sti>ok,
and whose numbers ure uncertainly
placed at 100,000; Nusaireeyeh, a savage
race of nearly 200,000 souls, holding
secret doctrines and inhabiting the far
northern mountains; Orthodox Greeks,
150,000, who though of Arab blood, be
long to the Russian Greek Church;
Jacobites, who split off from tiie Greek
Church in tiie 0th century and are now
connected with the birth of our religion,
but I felt humiliated as 1 saw indnbi
tnblo evidences of tiie rankest superstition
nnd fnuntioism. The first nnd deepest
impressions of tiie traveller is that
Christianity is dying in the lnnd of its
birth, Tlio second impression is equally
painful—tlmt tlio greatest hindrance to
the revival of Christianity is tlio ‘Chris
tian.’ The Moslem rules tlio land whore
tlio Messiah appeared, and from in
numerable minarets tiie people aro dnily
reminded that Mohammed nnd not
Christ is the Prophet of God.
And yet it was almost a relief to visit
tlio Mosque of Omar in the Temple area.
After the tawdry, tinsel glitter of the
Church of the Holy Sopulohre, tiie os
tentatious and tasteless display of gold
and silver and precious stones—the
statue of Mary aloue blazing with jew
els said to be worth millions of dollars—
the dirty, unkept appearance of walls
and courts, the empty mummeries of
ignorant priests and the contemptuous
expression of tiie Moslem sentries—it
was a relief to walk about tiie clean,
spacious, orderly Mosques of Omar and
ol-Aksa. Their farnishiugs and deoora-
tions are rioli but chaste as compared
with tiie overdone gorgeousness of tlio
‘Cliristiau’ churches. I felt moro recon
ciled to Moslem occupation as I noted
the solemnity and dignity of tiie Temple
area which the Moslem holds, and
wlJch no ‘Cliristiau’ is permitted to en

sul and a Turkish attendant to see that
he behaves himself. The Mohammedan
certainly keeps iiis part of the sacred
places iu a way more boiitting their
historic associations.
rupt. While there were many individ
ual instances of kindness and occasion
ally even of oo-operatiou, yet the hier
archies were, as a rule, bitter in their
opposition to Protestantism. Of course,
they are supported iu this by the French
Jesuits and the Russians, with whom
indeed several of these sects aro now
affiliated. * *
The missionaries wore not permitted
to preach iu the ritualistic churches of
tlio ‘soots.’ They oould not work under
the authority of jealous and hostile
bishops and patriarchs. Tlio few righte
ous men could not change tlio chamoter
of tlio vast, fostering masses of corrup
tion. It was essential to the preserva
tion of their own spiritual lives hh well
as to their influences as disciples of
Christ that they should not he lost in
tlio crowd of mere formalists, tlioir light
hidden under the bushel of heathenism
which was none the less heathen be
cause it called itself 'Cliristiau.' Never
was the command more applicable In
come out from them anil bo ye separ
ate,’
Moreover, tlio Turkish government
deals witli tlio Christian sects as organ
ized bodies uud not us individuals.
Each 11011-Moslem soot is expected to
have a corporate existence uud to have
u head or other roprosoiitutivu through
whom all intercourse with the Govern
ment must lie had. A mail who is not
connected with somo such body is an
outlaw. He cannot many or hold
proiHirty. Hu lias no sttyiuliiig iu the
courts uud therefore 110 redress uguiust
robbery or violeuoo. In Syria, tlio con
vert is speedily thrust out of Ids ohuroli
and becomes at 01100 an outcast. So the
missionaries woro early forced to effect
a Protestant organization. I11 180O, the
Sultan Abdul Medjid thus recognized
Protestantism as one of the legal reli
gious of thu Empire iu thu Imperial
Charter of Rights. This Protestant
Sect, us it is called to distinguish it from
otliur sects, is composed of the commu
nicants connected with all the Protes
tant Boards and Sooiutios in Turkuy.
Of course, there is no ‘official head,’ but
the‘Scot’maintains a Vokii, or agent,
in Constantinople who represents tlio
Protestants of the Empire in uny official
communications. However unfortunate
tills may be deemed in tiieory, it is an
absolute uooossity under Turkish law
where every man wtio is not a Moslem
must be a member of some ‘sect’ whioh
is recognized by tlio Government and
whioh lias an official head or Vekil with
whom tiie Oovornmeut can deal. * *
Tiie expense should be more largely
borne by the iiativo churches, as the
Vekilate is for their protection rather
than for that of the missionaries.”
We consider Dr. Brown’s testimony
as of tiie highest value, uud to one who
lias never travelled iu any of tiie provin
oes of preseut-day Turkey it will prove
a wonderful yet quite real approxima
tion to the facts as they were seen by us
and may be seen by any that visit the
country. And tiie many national
thumbs stuck into this Turkey pie are
but indices of its worth, and good fore
tokens of its dismemberment oil a mo
ment's notice.

lion. L. M. Brand, Mayor of
Lawrencevillo, who was in the city
yesterday, stated briefly the status
of what is known as the Lawrence-
ville jug law case which is attract
ing just now so much attention
throughout Georgia.
"The status of the Lawrence-
villc whiskey ordinance,” said ho,
“is simply this: Lawrenceville and
Gwinnett county are prohibiton ter
ritories. Rose & Co., of Atlanta,
were shipping jugs of whisky to
Lawrenceville every day of the
week, including Sunday, and the
people wanted it stopped. As
mayor of Lawrenceville I drafted
the ordinance which was enacted
with the view of checking this nui
sance. The ordinance does not
prevent liquor being shipped there,
but imposes a license for the priv
ilege. The express and railroad
companies submitted to the ordi
nance and declined to carry any
more liquor into the town. They
refused to take out the license
prescribed. They found public
sentiment in the town back of the
ordinance and its purpose and the
companies are now willing to obey
it. Rose &. Co. filed a mandamus
against the express company to
compel it to carry the firm’s ship
ments of liquor to Lawrenceville.
The case was set for April 15, but
I do not know when it will be tried.
“Lawrenceville is not a party to
the suit, hut, of course, is deeply
interested. No whiskey has been
shipped there since thu ordinance
became a law. If the courts do
not hold it valid the prohibition
counties of Georgia will doubt
less appeal to the general assem
bly for legislation authorizing the
enactment by prohibition coun
ties of such ordinances or to enact
some general law like that in South
Carolina which makes the place
of deli /ery the place of sale. I am
convinced the officials of the ex
press company do not care to han
dle this jug business and will not
do so unless compelled by law.
Judging by the many inquiries we
are receiving from other communi
ties in the State there is a very
deep-seated public interest in the
Lawrenceville case.”—Tuesday’s
