The interment of their dead has caused
the Partisan Israelites great disquietude.
They had no legal privilege for that and
depended on the goodwill of the police.
For a long time they had only ctaaades-
time cemetery in the house-yard of GER
tain Matard at Villette; they paid the
nroprietor a certain sum for each inter
ment. On March 7th, 1870, Jacob Rod
riguez Pereira has obtained the sanction
of the government to open cemetery
for the Portuguese Israelites. He
bought spot Of ground in the neighbor-
hood of Matard's house in rue de Ftan-
ders, for that purpose. Albert Conn
has found on that spot tombstones, the
dates of which have gone as far back as
the year 1851.
On Nav 3Oth, 1885, an Alsasian Israel
ite, Cerfbeer by name, has obtained per-
mission to open cemetery for the Ger
man Jews. He bought for that purpose
a plot of ground on the Petit Montrouge.
The Oldest tombstone which was found
on that burial place bore the date OF
1881. These two cemeteries have been
closed since the burial grounds of Pe'e-
Lochoise were inaugurated. The ceme-
terv of Montmortre was opened ON June
18th. 1909, and that of Montrouge on
March 10th, 1923.
The Jewish community Of Paris devel-
oped very slowly. She has gone through
a very trying epoch during the Reign
of Terror The children of the Jewish
schools were compelled to take part in
the worship of the Goddess of Reason.
Two Israelites of the family Of Calmer,
one was a son of Lehman Calmer, and
the other it is not ascertained whether a
son or relative of the same, were gull
lotined The convocation (or Synhedri-
on) of the prominent lsraelites at Paris
in the wear 1906, did not contribute in a
GREAT measure to impart to the Jewish
community sense of security or to de-
velon their forces The functionaries of
that community were not natives OF
France. and the Robbins and the Ha-

has for the first time published with that
account, a record of the cases which had
come before it. Albert Cohn was nomi-
mated treasurer of that committee in the
year 1848, and became it's president in
1858. On the occasion of his taking
the chair, he has donated 10000 francs
as a fund to lend out to laborers desiring
to establish themselves in any industrial
profession This fund has existed for
several years until it became exhausted.
The Committee Of Benevolence has
developed extraordinarily under the di-
rection of Albert Cohn. The receipts
thereof. which have amounted to about
$4,000 francs in the year 1841, have in
creased to 212,0O0 in the year 1871. The
reports of the services which that com
mittee has performed, gave perfect in
sight into the vast Importance which
she has assumed. The services consisted
in dispensing charity in money, in arti
cles of necessity, in rent and in fuel, ex-
traordinary help to occasional appli
cants, to the poor at the time of the
feasts, to prisoners, to lying-in women,
help for neglected children, travelling
expenses to poor wayfarers, providing
clothes for school children and for such
as finish their studies, and interments of
the poor subvention to old employees
of the Committee, to the hospital to the
nurses, to the free-schools, to schools
of the Consistory, and to the zaznud
Toroh, and lastly to the orphan asylum.
Albert Cohn has contributed a great
deal toward the creation Of several of
these services, and toward the extension
of the committees work. Generous as
the Partisan Israelites are, they need
yet sometimes to be stirred up little
Albert Cohn was the only person author
lied to realize the necessary means for
the Committee, not only from the Roths-
child family, but also from all others; he
therefore watched his opportunities to
do so, and at the birth of child, at
and at the introduction of a
young person into society. he was on
hand to plead the cause of the poor
The task was not always easy, but one
who speaks in the name of the poor with
a heart warmed up by the fame of char
ity, is strong and invincible
The Committee Of Benevolence is at
the head of many other charitable insti-
tutions, which are more or less connected
with it, and which move, so to say, in it's
sphere. Albert Cohn had hand in all
these works; there was not single
to which his activity has not
extended most benefcially
The first and the greatest of the Par
isian charitable institutions is Roth
schilds hospital. This institution was
established by the Committee of Benev-
olence, and inaugurated April 1st, 1842.
At first it was only modest house Of
assistance" situated in rue des Trois-
Bornes, and containing only from fifteen
to twenty beds. Its annual expenditure
The Jewish advance., 1878-08-30

did not amount to over II 900 francs in
the year 1916. On May 26th, 1852, the
hospital was transferred to rue Picpus,
and installed in new house constructed
for the purpose by Baron James de
Rothschild Albert Cohn delivered an
Grafton at that installation. Since that
year the hospital became detached from
the Committee of Benevolence and had
a separate administratio Albert Cohn
was the financial secretary of that ad-
ministration until his death A great
part of the credit for establishing and
enlarging the hospital is due to him. In
the year 1873, it contained ia beds, but
the number has increased every year
since. Beside the original services for
which the hospital has been established,
departments for sick children, for lying
in women and for wet-nurses, have been
added in the year 1865. The section for
aged persons belongs to the original SER
vices of the hospital.
The Rothschild family have construc-
ted at later period, a special depart
ment to the hospital to serve as a home
for the aged poor with accommodations
for fifty persons Toward the construc-
ton of this department, Albert Cohn
had donated 10000 francs. And very
recently at last, Nine de Rothschild has
built in the hospital yard a magnificent
asylum for persons afflicted with incur
able diseases, to the memory of her son
Salomon, and of her husband James de
Albert Cohn assisted with
a joyful heart in the Inauguration of this
department.. He made it practice to
visit it at least once a week, and to talk
to the sick, cheering and encouraging
their dropping spirits. A ray of light
always entered with him into that de-
partment.
In the same manner did Albert Cohn
devote his time and attention to all the
other institutions of the kind. He
visited regularly the orphan asylum Of
Salomon de Rothschild, which was
founded in the year 1857 by legacy of
100000 francs from Solomon de Roth
schild, and by an annual contribution of
5000 francs by the Rothschild family.
This institution was at first situated in
rue des Rosters, and subsequently trans
ferred to rue Lambardie. The elegant
structure to which it has been trans
ferred, was reared at the expense Of
Nine. James de Rothschild, and inaugu-
rated on June Sd, 1874.
Albert Cohn was president of the So
ciety for the Patronage Of Jewish Ap-
prentices and Laborers of Paris, and
every one in that city was impressed
with the beautiful orations which he has

cans remained in state Of suferage.*
AS late as the year 1880, only did the
Partisan community begin to show signs
of activity. In the year 1893, when
Albert Cohn arrived in Paris, she had
not yet any established organizations
and no cohesion.
The first moment of his arrival, Al
bert Cohn resolved to make himself use
full. His offer to officiate in the temple
was not accepted, as we have stated be-
fore. But after his return from his trip
to Italy, he obtained the permission to
hold religious meetings for the Jewish
pupils of the school and the lyceum.
He spent for this purpose several hours
in the week for term of twelve years.
From the year 1850, his beneficial infu-
ence in the Jewish community in gen
eral, began to show itself in the institu-
tions Of charity, and in all other matters
which have been called into existence.
His energy and zeal knew no bounds.
Thanks to his application, his intelli-
gence, his zeal, and to his position in the
Rothschild house, Albert Cohn became
the principal actor in all Jewish matters
of public concern at Paris, and the ami
mating spirit of the institutions which
have been founded by that community.

The Committee of Benevolence Conn.,
ite de bienfaisamce) was the centre of
Albert COINS activity. That committee
was at first a sort of Chebra; it was
formally established in the year 1909,
and was the first institution of the Paris
ian Jewish community. 1t was subse-
quently denominated The Consistorial
Committee on Assistance and Encour
agement," and in the year 1852, it was
called, The Committee of Benevo-
lence." It's mission was to help the in
digent, to tend to the sick, to bury the
dead, and to distribute Mozoth for the
Passover feast. It has published almost
every year an account Of the receipts and
disbursements, and in the year 1913, it

Submission Do not be impatient with
me for making this assertion. or imagine
that belittle the Office OF womanhood
in declaring it. Il is out Of the depth
Of my soul that | say lit is because I
know that they are the accompaniment
to the greatest and noblest triumphs wo-
man can ever achieve. But the vison
must be broad, the standpoint high. The
true woman's life is always sacrificial
one, but duty will teach her TO sacrifice
inclination. never principle. And where
to begin ali! duty, like charity, must
begin at home. Guard yourself against
over-hasty speech, against unjust sus-
picions, against petty fault finding,
against pride which will not yield
against the hardness that can not for
give. Remember that the woman, the
wife, and Of all the mother should be
the saving spirit of every household, the
kindly, tender and most blessed influence
in every home. To be thus, she must
DO wise as well as good, and not waste
her strength or disspate time. She must
learn the best ways, and gradually and
gently induce her family to walk in them.
Our best intentions some times fail, be-
cause they we're not we'll considered
take time for thought, have patience with
yourself; but do not take It for granted
that other people will understand your
efforts, or have patience with your short
comings. Try for the goods sake, for
duty's sake, for your childrcn's sake, for
the sake Of your own growth, and the
recompense will come in time-come in
unexpected ways, como SO fully that
your life in years to come will be one
long song of thanksgiving. and each
year happier than the last.
