Senator Eaton dem. of Ct.) in a
conversation with reporter of the World,
said the talk of coming full legal tender
dollar Of 4l21 grains, worth only 9Octs,
is the greatest folly in the world. He
proposed (he said to give these financial
fanatics an opportunity to prove their de-
votion TO double standard, by offering
an amendment for the coinage of silver
dollars worth l00cts. The talk Of paying
the debt in 90ct. dollars is all bosh, because
we have not even these to pay with. All
We can DO is 70 refund our debt at low
er rate Of interest, and if We tell people
We claim the right to give them 9Octs. for
3 dollar, we can't reduce our interest.
Last month added Mr.. Eaton Connec-
ticut manufacturer paid off his workmen
in trade dollars that cost him 95cts. but
are worth sets, more than the proposed
silver dollar and notwithstanding the
trade dollar will continue to pass in Con-
necticut as currently as greenbacks until
larger number is circulated, yet most
Of the workmen complained that they
found it incOnvenient to carry their
mouths wages home. When the agent
handed one Of these men his months sal
airy he exclaimed "GOod God, Major, l
shall have TO hire e jackass to cart this
money home. Don't give US any more of
It. That is just it (said Mr.. Eaton)-
jackasses to make the money and jackasSes
10 cart it home.'" At least when the
9Oct., dollar is issued the workmen find
that they have been made fools Of.

"A memorial window in Plymouth

"A memorial window in Plymouth
Church, Minneapolis, has the inscription,
81 will give the rest" During days OF
trial and mortgages the congregation wOr-
ried over big church debt which hung
over them. A lady expressed desire to
put in a memorial window for departed
friend, and the congregation graciously
allowed her to have her own way. The
window was finished and set near Eighth.
st., entrance, where it remains to this day.
The congregation had heard Ofthe window,
and at the first meeting, after the pane
had found its appropriate destination
everybody cast glance over their left
shoulder, "just to see how it looked" and

Mr.. John G. Whittier, thanking the

for its celebration OF his birthday, says
You do not err in the hope that may
gladly receive this token of your good
will. No difference OF religious sentiment
can make me insensible to words OF kind
ness. In the long struggle OF the past l
have learned TO value above all, the ORTIZ
odoxy OF a good and true life. have
learned in the same school with John
Woolman to feel no narrowness as to
sects and opinions, to use my own words
in this connection, which you will pardon
me for quoting:
The truths worst foe is he who claims
To act as Gods avenger,
And dreams, beyond his sentry beat
The crystal walls in danger.
Who sets for heresy his traps
or verbal quiTk and bubble,
And weeds the garden OF the Lord
With Satan's borrowed dibble
OF course every earnest man would re-
ioice to have all men share the faith and
hope which sustain and comfort himself,
out bis feeling should be always temper
ed by the charity which suffered long
and is kind. '"

is there not a hint for practical
Christian benevolence in other cities, in
the success of the effort in New York to
supply hospitals and charitable institutions
literally with magazines and newspapers
by voluntary contributions Large boxes
were placed at the outlet of the Grand
Central Depot, at the termination Of some
Of the railroads and ferries, where persons
coming into the city or down town might
drop the papers they had read. Those
were collected daily and taken to the hos
pitfalls. In this way, during last summer,
10000 newspapers and magazines were
obtained. The box at st. Paul's church
yard received 1875 papers, the largest
number of all ; next came the box at the

posted 1857 papers, while from the box

Hebrew New Year.

To- day, at 8 O'Clock P. NJ, beeins
the Hebrew New Year. This 10 q
day of memorial, during which
the devout Hebrews call to mind
their actions during the past year
and implore God to pardon their
sins. During the day no work OF
any kind may be done. 1t is the
first of ten which our Jewish fell
low citizens celebrate as days OF
psnitence. The day is variously
known by the names "a day OF
"blowing of trumpetsn and "a day
"of memorial" Respecting the
New Year the Hebrew sages have
said, "This 10 the day on which the
"world was brought into existence;
"this 10 the day In which the Great
"God causes oil his creatures to
"stand in judgment before him."
The Hebrew religion enforces re-
pentance aud confession Of sins
during this holy time, and pre-
scribes the offering of prayer to the
Almighty, that he may write them
In the book of life and grant them
happy new year. The Sabbath
following tomorrow is called the
Sabbath of Penitence, the third
day is a general fast called the fast
of Gedaliah, and. on the tenth day,
there are formal penitential exer-
cises as atonement.
There will be fitting and impress
sive ceremonials in the Jewish
Synagogue to-day and tomorrow,
over which Rabbi Edelman will
preside.
