The Maharsjah's Tent.

I must also tell you of our visitto
tent of the Maharajah Of Casinos
1t was a most gorgeous affair, hung \
inside with Cashmere shawl work. ~
tent-poles, some thirty or forty in nu'
Der, were covered with silver. A largl
green velvet carpet, worked aroull
with solid gold embroidery half . yH|
deep, without the corners and the 90!
fringe, lay spread under the two god
covered chairs placed as thrones OF n
ception, and over this canopy with
face embroidered in a rising sun
solid gold embroidery, the eyes, ofel
amel, as large as an egg. You ns
imagine from this the proportions
the face. The moustache was madea
black embroidery, but all the resta
the face was solid gold. This canop
was supported inside by poles w.t.
gold and silver bands, alternating ~
the colors of a barber's pole. ca
pets with cushions for the bsd
and arms of the maharajah, OF gsl
and red velvet, with this heavy p'
embroidery, were laid in one or'ia
places for his repose. Persian carpel
covered the ground, even out TO v
gateway at the entrance. The tens@
cupied a space of some fifty BY OF
hundred feet. Just fancy this, y y
can, with Persian carpets on the groun0

be two, of lead nickels and plate glass
half-dollars in the till, and though he
often had a good deal of travelling to
do Oh the bob tail ears and gave away
much small change in charity, he
couldn't get rid of it all, and the Fed

discovered that dishonesty was the best
policy, and took to knocking down S.
a day; and some of his Oldest custo-
mers, men that he had gone bail for
and lent money to pay their fines time
and again, swore off, or went to
other saloons without going through
the formalities of liquidating accounts
as long as their respective arms. The
title to his real estate proved clouded !;
property went down; his bulldog, an
animal of approved courage, turned
tail ANONYMOUSLY in fight and lost

forged his name at the savings bank,
drew all his money, and eloped with his
wife, and finally his establishment was
seized and sold. Gentlemen" said the
orator, in an awe-stricken voice, "it
may seem to You an idle and accidental

the amount of that claim was 1857 80.

vive this sad blow. He sank to SUI

priated was, alas! marked one, and he
languished for months in Chicago

his downward career, and affiict our
vision with the sight of the misfortunes
of Moriarty? Why depict him driven

was not even good for a matutinal nip

the sad conclusion of my o'er-true tale.
He died last week in the Alms-house,
and, as his pauper attendant held tin
mug of grocery refuse, considered by
some to be tea, to his dying lips, he
murmured family, No, l guess I'll take
a cigar and died" The Society pass
ed q series of resolutions to the memory
OF Mr.. Moriarty, and adjourned over
the way.-Chicago Tribune.

English Conversions to Jewish Faith.

An announcement has been publish
ed to the effect that the Jewish eccle-
siastical authorities, the Beth Din, will
in future permit the induction of Chris
tians and others into the Jewish faith.
1t is among the things not generally
known that from the admission of the
Jews into England during the Common
wealth to the present time not one Cen
tile OF either sex has been received into
the Anglo-Jewish community by
English rabbis or Jewish ministers resi-
dent in this country. Englishmen
have, OF course, embraced Judaic doc
trines from time to time; but CONVEX
sion does not necessarily mean submis-
sion to Jewish rites. Every year, how
ever, a considerable number of Chris
tan women have gone over to Holland,
Belgium, or France, and have there re-
nounced Christianity in favor Of the
more ancient faith, the rabbis in these
countries being under no obligation to
refuse to induct proselytes. These
converts are generally young women,
and in ninety-nine cases out of hum
dred they adopt Judaism for matri-
monial reasons. Not many Jews care
to marry out of their pale at all;
and when they do they natural
ly wish their wives to be formally
received into the Jewish Church. The
reasons why the spiritual chiefs of the
Jewish community have declined up till
now to receive proselytes can be traced
to the time of the Commonwealth when
it was imagined by the ignorant and the
bigoted that the Jews sought admission
to this country in order to gain adher-
ents to their religion. To Danish this
delusion the rabbis of the time engaged
themselves, under heavy penalties, to
refuse admission to the synagogue of
any Christian. And this rule, enacted
by Israelites for Israelites, has remain
ed in force from the time of Menasesh
Ben Israel to that of Rev. DR.. Adler.
That the Jews in our own day do not
wish to begin the business of CONVEX
sion we may be well assured. The
truth is that some of the most infiuen-
tial members of the Hebrew community
have during the last three or four years
taken unto themselves Christian wives;
some noble Jewesses have made them
selves happy with Gentle husbands;
and it happens that Jews rarely main
tain the rites and obligations of their
faith after they have married out of it.
The readiness of DIR. Adler and his CO.
AUDITORS, therefore, to save intending
proselytes The expense and trouble Of a
journey to Holland or Belgium may be
traced to mixed marriages. The first
ceremonv of iuduntion will he 1ookod
forward to with some interest, espec-
tally if it be of public character, as is
the case in America; and it is probable
that ere many weeks have passed DR..
Adler will have the opportunity of well
coming Guerista.-Pal Mall Ga

The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1877-08-09

It he went up on the barnroof he would
be all right.
No such thing. The bear went right
up the ladder after him Then Solomon
ran up the roof to the ridge; but the
bear followed. Solomon ran down the
other side Of the roof, and so did the bear.
Solomon jumped on the cow-house, and
still the bear followed him. Then Solo
mon jumped on to a shed that was close
by the cow-house, aud the bear jumped
too.
Solomon now began to think that his
time had come. He gave one more jump
from the shed to the ground. This was
too much ofa jump for the bear to take
and so Solomon made good his escape.
l do not remember how the bear got
down; but am sure, that, when Re did,
Solomon did not care to feed him any
more with green chestnut-burs. I think
Solomon was too glad to escape a hug
ging to try it very soon again.
