An industrious reporter, says the North
American, finds that there is constantly in.
creasing tendency among the Jews to inter
marry outside of their race. Ladies who are
familiar with New York society find that
there are more and more households in which
either husband or wife is Jew, but, curious
ly enough, the intermarrisges are by far the
more common with Roman Catholics. In
Europe this tendency is even more marked.
and the Jews not only intermarry with Chris
tians but pay less and less attention to the
strict requirements of their religion. One of
the Rolhschild family has already married q
Christian, and the great heiress, Miss Han
nah, is to marry Lord Roseberry. What will
be the final result Of this change of opinion
no one can tell, but there is certainly grow.
ing tendency Of the Jewish race to assimilate
with other races.

A Slim Showing for Democratic
Economy.


The boasted Democratic economy Of last
session, under revelations of needed defcien-
cy bills, grows rapidly less. At the close Of
the fiscal year it was only nineteen millions
in place Of the twenty y-eight or thirty claim
ed. Three and half millions of this was q
saving in interest, with which the House had
nothing to do; one and q half million was on
account Of Bristcw's reduction Of Custom
House expenses, and subsequent deficiency
bills will make . still further reduction Of
nearly five milliOns, thus leaving the total Of
Democratic economy little over nine mill
lions. Even this has seriously crippled sew
eral branches Of the public service, and the
Democrats themselves are now moving to
restore sore Offices which were cut of. As
an example Mr.. Clymer, in the Appropria-
ton Committee to-day, moved TO have the
post Of Minister to Bolivia restored, and Con-
suls also sent back to that nation. He urged
as reason that one Pennsylvania company
was shipping heavily through the ports of
that country for railroad purposes, one cargo
alone of late having reached $50, Con-
sClar protection was needed. The restora-
tion OF several other STATIONS cut on to in
crease the Democratic showing of economy is
now urged by the Democrats. Washington

markable. Since its introduction to the
reading public six years ago, TIE LEDGER
has steadily advanced In favor, and is now
acknowledged second to no paper Of the kind
in the country Its circulation is national, and
has been obtained through the efforts of its
publishers to produce paper of high moral
character, and at the same time sell ii at q
price consistent with the present hard times.
That they have succeeded. and well, too. the
thousands or readers of TER LEDGER scatter
ed from Maine 10 Texas and from Oregon to
Florida will bear testimony. THE CHICAGO

paper, which contains stories both complete
and continued, in each number, written by
the best authors Of the day, and great vari-

The subscription price Of the LRDGEE is only
81 20 per year, postage paid, snd 1t ID equal

An enterprising firm in the city Of New
York is entitled to the credit of discovering q
new and lucrative industry. Whenever a
bank breaks it sends out an agent to buy up
the unused check books of the depositors.
AT Chicago last week he secured thousand
such books. Each check has autographed
stamp on it that represents cents, and the
firm has an arrangement with the Treasury
whereby "the Treasury Department either re-
deems these stamps on the checks at par or
authorizes the company to issue new ones in
their place. The agent gets so per cent COM
mission, and pays from 20 to 40 cents hun
dred for the checks, so that the Companys
share is a cent on each, the agents about
three quarters of a cent, and the owner of the
book about one-quarter of a cent. 1t might
do no harm, il such an arrangement exists,
to have it made general, and so allow deposi-
tors to make the profit to which they are en-
titled.
