| MARX TwA1N's WASHINGTON LECTURE
The Washington Republican of January 10,
speaks of Mark Twain's recent lecture in
that city upon the subject of " The Frozen
Truth " as follows:
Mark Twain, the well known humorous
writer and lecturer, made his debut before a
Washington audience at Metzerott Hall last
evening. To say that the lecture and lecturer
were a decided success is simply TO record
the verdict of delighted audience. Besides
number of minor topics, humorous hits
and we'll told anecdotes, the lecture embraced
general review of the excursion, per steam
ship Quaker City, made last Summer by the
Puritan Pilgrims to the Holy Land and var
ious other points en- route in Europe, Asia
and Africa. The state room accommodations
on the steamer, the various sensations and
stages of sea-sicknesS, the sociability of the
passengers and their peculiarities, were in
imitable, and elected uncomfortable bursts
of laughter from the audience, while his re-
miniscences of the noble cities of to-day and
those Of the past. visited by the yoyagers,
were given with all the genuine freshness of
a traveller who has seen with observing eyes
and rejecting mind all that he reproduces
to his hearers. The domestic difficulties Of
the Sultan of Turkey with his 900 wives, and
the points shown of the similarity of certain
institutions of that country with those of our
own, were APPLY made and thoroughly appre-
ciated. Mark Twain possesses that rare but
happy combination Of talking well he
writes; and if any of our readers may he
under fit of the d" blues" We re-
commend to them a speedy relief in brief ad-
vice, :. Go and see Mark Twain" His next
lecture is advertised for Saturday evening, at
the same place.

upon with much gusto BY that gentleman
and his friends. 1t is regarded as "good
joke" upon the negroes. Perhaps it is; but
the law calls it misdemeanor, punishable
by both fine and imprisonment, and it is
quite probable that this excellent Democratic
joke may result in providing Constable Lam
nan with little of both at the hands Of the
United States District Court. In charge to
the United States Grand Jury, last Spring,
Judge Baldwin called especial attention to
the Civil Rights law, and enjoined upon that
body careful investigation Of alleged viola
tions of the second section. 1t has been
plainly, deliberately, insultingly violated by
Constable Lannan. and he should be made
to answer for it. 1t provides that "any per-
son who, under color of any law, statute, Or
dinance, regulation or CUSTOM shall refuse
to permit colored citizen of the United
States to testify before Court of justice
because of such color, "shall be deemed
guilty of misdemeanor, and on conviction
shall be punished by fine not exceeding one
thousand dollars, or Imprisonment not ex-
ceeding one year, or both, in the discretion of
the Court" This is the penalty which Con-
stable Lannan has invoked upon himself.
For the amusement of his Democratic friends
he has set at nought and spit upon a solemn
ordinance of the General Government-has
sought to bring national law into contempt
has, under color of forceless State statute, |
deprived certain colored citizens of the Uni |
ted States of right as dear to them as to
him-and he should and doubtless will be
made to answer for the outrage Joke
though it be.

ArRocIoUs AFEAIR.-The Chicago Trib
une youches for the truth of horrible story
concerning man who had been accused o
stealing gun in Elkhart, Indiana, and who
was taken from the officers of the law by two
ruffians, and subjected to the most cruel tor.
lures. To make him confess, he was seized
and hung up to tree but after few sec
onds the rope broke, when he was again
hung up, the rope, however, breaking a sec
ond time. Next" says the Tribune, " the
men dug pit in the ground beneath the tree
and therein built roaring fire. They doub-
led the rope, placed it again about seymon's
neck, and gave him last opportunity to
make confession. He still refused, and a
moment after he hung from stout limb by a
strong cord, i,nmeditely over a blazing fire.
In another moment he was literally ablaze,
and then he gave token by looks and signs
that he was ready to confess. He was imlne-
diately cut down, considerably the worse for
the fire, and then he made full confession"

THE ISRAELITES IN THE UNITED
STATES,

The Hebrew, large sized, ably con
Quoted weekly newspaper, published in
San Francisco, devoted. as its name
implies, to Jewish literature and religi.
Gus interests, furnishes The following
highly interesting data regarding the
Israelites in the United States
Though few statistics Of the very early
settlement of the Jews in the United States
exist. We still know that they belong to the
pioneers of this country, driven through
tyranny and oppression from the Old World,
they came here to find a home in this New
World. The Puritans were certainly here
long before them, as they arrived early as
the year 1920; while the first news of the
arrival of Jews in this country, was in the
year 1894. On the Oath of August 1910, a
ship arrived at Newport, r. l. then one Of
the chief seaports of the Colonies from the
West Indies. This vessel had on board a
number of Jewish families. These were
principally in humble circumstances and
settled themselves on the above place. They
soon organized congregation, and called il
90 Beth Elohim - blouse of Cod. This
Congregation numbered sixty persons, and
Rev. Abraham Azenedo was the Rabbi This
was tue AisL OItuSuese SouSIt
Since then the Israelites have settled them
selves broadcast over the United States. The
Government offered those who through mon
archial oppression were driven to this coun-
try, an asylum, and granted them the priv
ilege not only to distinguish themselves in
business, arts and sciences. but also gave
them the right to become citizens, and have
a voice in the deliberations of a free and
people. In the year 1850 there
were Il synagogues in the United States, of
this number Is were in New York, and since
then have increased to 80 in New York and
Brooklyn. The number of Israelites in New
York city is estimated at l25. 900, and in the
State of New York at 23l 800. When the
census of 1860 was taken, those protesting
the Mosaic Law were proud to say that up to
that time none had been charged with a capital
offence. Among the Israelites. $4,000 are
engaged in business, 800 at trades, ,425 in
ine arts, and 2,130 in literature.
There have been founded by them IA
Benevolent Societies and schools, % 900 be-
ong to the order of Free and Accepted Ma
IONS. In general they enjoy good reputa-
ion in the mercantile community; the ma
ority are recognized as being smart, emerge
ic, and worthy business men.

A MISERABLE SCAMP.-The Enterprise
speaks of fellow who ought, if apprehend-
! ed, be treated to round dozen:
Day before yesterday, man went to the
| Office of physician in this city to procure
| the services of the medical gentleman for a
sick child. Asking for the doctor, man
who was standing near the door of the office
said, II am the DOCTOR" and went to see
the child. After examining the little suffer
er, he said it must be rubbed all over with
whisky, and was paid s. for medical advice.
Yesterday morning the father Of the sick
child came again to the office of the physician
and, asking for DR.. -, was shown the
gentleman-thet true doctor. NO." said he,
THAT is not the man. DIR. - went with
me Yesterday to sse my child; he was very
different man" 1t finally came out that
some loafer who had been standing near the
door of the Office of the physician, had as
sumed the name and dignity Of the Doctor,
had prescribed for the patient. collected his
fee, and made his retreat III good order. The
bogus physician is described as a tall man,
with sandy whiskers. Both the father of the
child and the real physician are anxious to
see the impOstor.
