THE OLDEST MONASTERY.
It Dates Back to the Fifth Century
and Is P.tost Inaccessible.
The oldest monastery in the work!
ts Marsnba. a fortress that clings to
the top and sides of a rocky ciiff at i .
the end of Ivedron valley, near the ;
i)ead sea. ;
It's the weirdest place that man ;
2vcr happened on, vriili only the :?ries
of the jackal and the call of the
night birds to break the frightful
stillness that broods over the
land. It is a destroyed stronghold
of the crusaders and the tomb of a
nomad chieftain. Sheik I.Iessiijf.
In the early part of the fifth century
the Sabaites took possession of
CP!., Ti-no ftwlni. n f rnAriti r> f
LI. JL ill."* V* CiC? Ci.A Vi UV/1 Vi
which San Sabas was the superior.
The larger part of the monastery
was built by them. Their numbers
finally so increased that the monastery
would not hold them all, and
^ ' j a
10,000 took up their abode in rock
caves in the mountain opposite.
Four thousand remained in the
monastery proper. In tlie seventh
century the Persian hordes attacked
and plundered them. After that
a castlelike tower was built to serve I
as a defense.
Later another tower was added to
it, and, strange to relate, this last
was a monument to a woman's love.
It was built by the Empress Eudoxia,
that she might dwell in it
and so be near to Euthymius, a
monk with whom she had fallen in
love because lie represented, as she
rTarUorml lifir f>f manhood.
Euthymius, however, was noted
for his sanctity, and he would not
violate his vow. He refused to see ?
the lady, and he even fled from her
to the Moabite desert, beyond the
Jordan. Finally the empress left !
her post never to return, and the
tower was annexed as a part of the |
monastery.
It is now used as a lookout, and a |
watchman is constantly stationed
there. When a visitor knocks and
knocks repeatedly, he at last opens
a small window in the tower and
looks out to demand the letter of
introduction from the Greek patriarch
of Jerusalem, without which
none is ever permitted to enter. J |
When once inside, visitors are j
praetiea!lv prisoners, for the iron ;
bolts ot tiie great aoor are quicis.iv |
slipped in place, and there is no other
exit. Within a paved courtyard
is a small Roman chapel, containing
Sail Sabas' tomb. An outer
veranda in the courtyard leads to the
Church of St. Nicholas, one of the
oldest in Palestine.
Just Wait.
"Hello, Charley! I haven't seen
you since I was married!" said a
newly married man to a friend he
chanced to meet down on Main
street.
"No," replied the friend. "You

"Yes. I don't hang around as I
used to." ;
"You are just like I was," said
the other, who had been married for
some years. "Just found the society
of the wife enough, eh?"
"Yes. We do not tire of each i
other." 1
"Just like I was. I suppose you '
think it will never change, eh? Just ]
always will be the same, I suppose." '
"I don't think I will change."
"Just like J was. I suppose she
has not asked you for a fifty dollar <
suit when you only had $25 the day
before pay day." i
"Xo, of course not."

A Merciful Judge.
To be sentenced to imprisonment J
for the term of one's natural life is i
hard enough, but to be consigned to |
a dungeon cell for a couple of thousand
years is indeed harrowing. Yet
foreign judges not infrequently impose
sentences of several centuries .
without it being considered anything
remarkable.
A young man was arrested in Vi- j
enna a couple of years ago who upon i
his own showing should have been !
sentenced to 2,500 years' imprison- j
ment. A total of 400 charges was j
* ? i -li I
brought against mm, ami ne was j
convicted and sentenced on all. of !
them. But the judge was a rncrci- i
ful man, and in passing sentence he
threw off a thousand years in consideration
of the man s Youth.
