In Little Patrol Fight, the Americans
(et Two of 'Em.
London, Feh. 22.-The liritish have
captured .Jericho. in Palestine, the war
oflice reports.
The city was entered by Australian
troops yesterday. :lAittle opposition
,was encountered. Laater the Austra..!
lians established tlemsl n ves on the
line of the Jordal' and the Vadi Auja.
Theo e Miealstement reports; the non
Itiuat ion of had weitle:' Norvl and
inr lhwest of .erusalem the Hrilish ad
van ciCed positions were extended slight
IV and rendered secure. )uring the
fighting of Wednesday the casualties 1
of Ihe 1lriIish troops Were agai
slight.
Since the capture of .1erusalem Ih
lhriti ;h have been pushing ahead stea.
11y strilIing out to t.he north and east.
Olicia1 statements from London in the
l'ost fewiv days have reported raid pro
gress, and aplmrb iently thl' 'Trifs have
(off1eretd no del e rmn in ed r-esistance.
Aidr fromu its historica'l 1)portancl
in connllct ioll with the r'litisl plan
to free the lloly 1and frot the lom
ination of the ''urk(s, the capt ire of
J*rie:hIo is of little signitleanee. It eon
eiste merely of a group of scinalid
hIoVels anid a few shos, Iil about
:)00 inhabitants. Its chief strategie
value lies in the fact that It gives the
Urit ish (om) inat ion of th e valley of
.1ordan and also control of a network
of highwvays radiating from Ile town.
A further advance eastward of e..
miles, however, would take the Brit
ish to the railway from Damaseus to
M ecen, which would cut off the Turk's
line of communieation with Arabia
and greatly assist the revolting Arab
tribes which are cooperating with the
British. Jericho Is near the northern
extremity of the Dead sea, 14 miles
northeast of Jerusalem.
The encient .ericho which was sit
uated to the west of the modern .leri
cho, was a town of considerable size.
it was the first 'Canaanite city to he
reduced by the Israelites who, the
Biblical story relates, encompassed
its destruction by the blowing of trum
pets.
California's Good Roads.
The state of California has voted
$15,000,000 to be spent 1" perfecting
the state highway system/and not a
single county failed to give the em
powering measure a majority.
