then, came to the house to visit her, but
he had no hand in her ruin. He was a
youth, several years her junior, of slight
build and altogether unlike the person
the hospital people described as having
brought her there ooh! he was not
the man." Mr.. Soar said. cit was some
one older than she some one they believed
was her father. To the best of my knowl-
edge the girl had no such acquaintance ;
certainly none such was ever seen with
her. OF course it was possible that while
she was away from home she might have
met some stranger and formed an init
macy with him, but the whole affair is a
mystery 10 ne. / doubt the story have
been told I hardly believe any one went
with her to the hospital although they say
SO. / think she went there herself after
leaving home. "
LEAVING HOME.
"Why she left home of course We could
not learn" MIR. Soar said in answer 10
the question. "She SAID she was going
to live out. You must know that Lizzie
was an active industrious girl, and never
wanted to be idle She worked at making
laces in my place, and when business
lagced she insisted on living out. About
two months ago she went TO stop with q
! family in Williamsburg, but left them
several weeks ago and came home. On
! November 2lst she went away again. She
had all her Clothes packed up and taken
away, and she sent us note saying that
she had found good place and was going
to take it. This satisfied us at first,
though it seemed strange that Lizzie
should act so 9ueerly. Time passed, and
we heard nothing of her. Then her
mother began to worry and We inquired
for her all over, but could learn nothing
of her whereabouts. 1t was only when
they notified Inc to come to the hospital
that / learned my poor childs fate and
discovered her trouble. She was always
good girl and as dutiful as one could
wish. She never went about like other
girls of her age, but preferred to sit in
the house and read. She was a great
reader and spent almost too much of he1
| time at it. Iohjected l to it often, for she
| seemed to care great deal about novels
and story papers, and l did not. approve
of it. 1t is too late now, though. She
was no doubt the victim of some girlisE
love and was cruelty deceived. The mar
who is guilty of her ruin and her DEATH
however, it seems likely l shall never

A MEDITERRANEAN WAR.-In the event
of Turkey attempting to make peace on
Russia's terms without consulting the
British interests as part of the foundation
of settlement, the Mediterranean is des-
tined to become a theatre of new and
possibly general European war. We state
this on the assumption that England will
make good her threats of armed interven-
ton, and with the knowledge that she
cannot reach her prospective enemy, Rus
sia, except on the southern side of his
European empire-that is from the Black
sea- In anticipation of the necessity for
hostilities England has three depots estab-
lished and occupied by armed forces.
These arc Besika bay, near the mouth of
the Dardanelles and sheltered by the
island of Tenedos, ,whichis capable of being
strongly fortified; Malta, with its exten-
sive harbor, fortiications, depots and
general strategic value, dividing, as it
does, the Mediterranean sea into two sec
tions for naval operations; and Gibraltar,
Justly regarded as one Of the strongest
fortresses in the world, and wherein large
supplies for the eastern depots can be held
in readiness. 1t will be seen by glance
at the map of Europe that the Besika po-
sition is intended as a menace to Russia
and as an encouragement to the Turks, as
it may at any moment be supplemented
by the seizure and occupation of Gallipoli
or Cyprus, by which post of observation
in proximity to the Suez canal would be
created But neither of these Levantine
positions would be tenable for British
feet against the active naval operations of
a hostile Italy. 1t would be difficult to
maintain the supply of coal that should be
transported from England. At Malta the
difficulties in that respect would not be as
great butany withdrawal of hersquadrons
from the East Mediterranean from any
cause would be for England the surrender
of the objects for which she went to war
Hence Italy's part in the settlement of
the Eastern question is by no means I'M
important With her powerful iron-clads
and their monster hundred ton guns, her
status as a naval power in the Mediterra
mean is scarcely second to that of England,
and, allied with Spain, for instance, might
prove match for the British power Italy
has cast as many hungry glances on her
stolen child Malta as Spain has on Glib
raltar. Perhaps if these nations should
advance questions as to their interests in
the Mediterranean, England may not find
it an easy matter to adjust them

ELECTRIC LIGHr-The first experiment

on the 14th of November, in the new
synagogue in the Oranienburg street, be-
fore large crowdof people In the court
yard Of the building a stationary appara-
tus furnished the light, which was con.
Quoted over the roof into two of the five
round windows, whence the light stream
ed down on the synagogue below. The
effect was astonishing. The light was SO
brilliant that it Illuminated the gallery
and the remotest corners Of the edifce.
The splendor of the light was vivid, but not
offensive to the sight Incomparison with
gas the results as follows Gas, perhour.

out as bright as day, and producing
most magical effect. Gas burning along

was supposed brought her TO the hospital,
but he should endeavor to find him.
Last night the body was lying in the
dead house of the hospital awaiting the
permit of the Coroner for its removal to
the Brooklyn residence of Mr.. Soar.
The latter said to the Herald reporter
that the fall of his child was mystery to
him. What her story was he could not
tell, or In what way she came to shame.
From himself and her mother she had of
course sedulously concealed everything
tias might at all serve to expose the man
whose victim she had been. She had
never complained to them of illness, or
seemed in any way but the best of spirits.
If she brooded over her misfortune and
worried over anticipations of her secrets
becoming known she kept her fears and
assumed mask of gayety and good hu-
NOR that baffled the eyes of all. "Neyer

A LEWIS Opinion Of the Iews.

The editor Of the London Truth is
himself jew. and a very able one. and
he makes the following remarks: "l
have never understood the loneliness
Of Jews at being called Jews, even when
the term il used rather as designation
Of race than opprobriously. l see
nothing to be particularly ashamed OF,
or to be particularly proud OF. in being
n Jew. In England Jews have great
advantage over Christians. because.
while they have the advantage OF being
Englishmen. they also have the advan-
t.gs OF belonging TO a powerful fraier'
nifty, bound together Ike Free Masons,
ever ready to support any OF its mem
bers. No people are more exclusive
than Jews. and no people have more
marked traits OF character. Let an Eng
iishman and Jew have the same for
tune. and the latter will spend more
than the former. Out Of business they
are more ostsntatious. more liberal and
more charitable than Christians. i
would rather. with an eye TO my own
interests. do business with e Christian
than with Jew: but were beegar. i
would rather beg OF Jew than OF n
Christian"
