Many complained that Judaism did not sntisfy
their religious desires; that its forms did not
suit them. II so, then change the forms. The
present generation had as much right to make
changes as those generations which made
changes carly in this century. II Prof. Adler
and the Society for Ethical Culture hou-
estiy intended to remain Israe2ites,
they would probably be harbinger
OF new blrth-of Jewish religion cmancipat~
ed from Jewish nationality. Aud this seemed
to be the real issue now within American Ju-
daissn. On one side il would be declared that
Judaism was inllssolubly connected with the
Jewish race; on the other that Judaism would
DC ENDANGERED If not elevated from tue narrow
connnes ol SOCIAL religion to the nights OF
universal prophetic religion.
Inc party question: IN thc jewish world OF the
present was National Judaism or COSMOPOLITAN
judaism. That was q stubborn fact. That
was the issue: National or Cosmopolitan Juda-
ism-re9ts1on or race. The writings OF men
like Auerbach and kompcrt, and also a great
number OF Jewish theoloEians, were, in sub
stance: I'VE have been race until now,
but we don't want to be it any
longer! No longer are re Jewish
nation; hcncetorth we are Jewish
denomination" These ideas we're being practi-
cally carried out by many: In America mar
riases between Jews and Christians were be-
coming very numerous. Many Of the older men
and women among American Israelites cling
with tenacity to the old traditions and customs.
But with young American Israel the case was
different, and that generation could not be cx-
pccted to rcadopt the old national customs and
laws, and remain within the narrow national
boundaries. The stream that carried them away
was too powerful.
It would be well for the Society Of Ethical
Culture to retain the young Jewish generation
Of New York as members Of the house Of israel,
and see that they did not dissolve partnership

Jesus, says the story, arrived one
evening at the gates Of q certain CITY,
and He sent His disciples forward to pre-
pare supper, while He himself, intent on
doing good, walked through the streots
into the market place. And He saw at
the corner of the market some people
gathered together looking at some OBJ
iect on the ground, and He drew near
to see what It might be. 1t was adead
dog with a halter around his neck, by
which he appeared to hayebeen dragged
through the dirt, and a viler, more
abject, more unclean thing never met
the ewes of man. And those who stood
by looked on with abhorrence.
"Fauchis said one, stopping his nose |;
"it pollutes the airi" How long,"
said another, "shall this foul beast Of
fend our sight2" "Look at his torn
hide" said third; zone could not even
cut shoe out Of IT," "And his ears"
said fourth, "all draggled and bleed
ing" "No doubt" said a fifth, "he has
been hanged for thieving." And Jesus
heard them, and, looking down comras'
sionately on the dead creature, de said
Pearls are not equal to he whitenesss
of his teeth" Then the people turned
TO Him with amazement. and said
among themselves: "Who is this?
This must be Jesus of Nazareth; for
only He could find something TO pity
and approve even in dead dog" And
being ashamed, they bowed their heads

nInnoceut Mans Narrow Escape

In the year 1875 the wife of Nathan
o. Greenfield was found murdered at
her home at Syracuse, New York. Her
husband was arrested for the crime,
tried, found guilty, and sentenced to be
hanged. Upon the conclusion of the
trial, an anonymous note was received
by the court which read as follows:
"Spare Greenfeld's life. killed her
after = = and since that time |
have been in the wilds of Michigan, yet
! can't do double murder. | am
German, and before you get this shall
be far away" On the back of this
was written, why clamor after
his life? He is innocent" Upon
the strength of this, Greenfield
got a new trial, but was again
convicted aud sentenced to be hanged.
When asked why sentence should not
be pronounced upon him. he said: GAS
there is God of truth and God of
justice, | am innocent" Shortly after
this another letter was rect ived by n
man named Alden from Lafayette, Ind
signed Royal Kellogg" which DO
upon the murder with sufficient weight
to again secure new trial. Again was
Greenfield found guilty, on the 10th of
October last, of murder in the first de-
gree and sentenced TO be hanged on the
18th of December, next which sentence
yet hangs over his head. But now
comes an old lady, Mrs Milly Drake,
of Lafayette, Ind, who makes II
complete exposure of the real murderers
and the causes which led to the commits
sion of the crime She says that she is
the grand mother of Royal Kellogg;
that year after the conviction of green
field he returned to his home in La
fayette (etter per SO above mentioned)
and confessed bis criminality in the
matter, threatening to kill her il she
divulged the secret She says that the
night that Mrs Greenfield was murdered
he confessed that he and two other
parties, named Alden and George Hines
went 10 the farm house of Green
field to steal oats. Observing that
Mrs. Greenfield had detected them
in the act y murdered
her. They then took $50 in money and
a number of valuable articles and left.
Mrs. Drake says that the authorities in
New York few days ago arrested
Royal Kellogg. Since the murder he
served short sentence in the Peniten-
tiary, and while there wrote to her not
to say any thing about the murder, and
particularly to his attorney. A detec-
tive visited her during the first trial,
but she was afraid to tell him any thing.
She says she will not go to Syracuse
unless compelled to, Judge Daniels, Of
Syracuse, who sentenced Greenfield, has
been notified of these facts, and the
matter will doubtless receive the atten-
ton it iustiiies.

A cablegram from Kingston, Japacia,
says that severe rains on that island
from the 1lth to the 14th did serious in.
jury to property in Kingston, st. An.
drew, and Port Royal Mountains. Some
thirteen lives were lost in Kingston,
while horses, mules, sheep, goats, huge
trees and timbers, bridges, houses, and
sacks of coffee and plantain trees were
swept out into the sea. Great distres
prevails among the poor. Telegraph
lines have been swept down, and conf

Business has been almost entirely sus
pended in consequence. Captain Web

horses, sheep, cows, goats, and logs Of
mahogony and cedar. The greatest

Raised His Salary.

During one of his rounds through ms
palatial hotel, the landlord of the Pal
mer House, Chicago, entered room
suddenly and discovered a window
washer leisurely engaged in reading
a newspaper. Being very active HIM
self, he had no use for o lazy man, or
one who sights his work. He dis
charged his washer on the spot, and or
dered him to go to the office for his pay.
The man obeyed, got his money, went
to his room on the upper floor, arrayed
himself in his Sunday suit, packed up
his duds and descended to the servants
apartment to take leave OF his former
associates. About this time MIR. Palmer
entered, but did not recognize his
quondam employe in his store clothes.
"Here, my man, you look as though
there was good work in ycu; do you
want a job?" ;,
The ex.washer, somewhat surprised,
admitted that he stood in need OF one.
Can you wash windows~
The man allowed that he could.
"Well," said Mr.. Palmer, I've Just
discharged man who has been doing
that sort of work. I paid him only $50
a month, but if you take the place and
go right to work, I'll pay you $22."
The proposition was quietly accepted
and in half an hour the discharged en-
ploye was scrubbing away in the same
old room,

that one y left TO wonder how IT is pos
sible within human possibilities for
such things to be, and still daily the re-
ports from different parts OF the country
bring the sad details, each crime SEEM
ing to increase in atrocity and enormiiy.
At village called Strongville, near
Cleveland, Ohio, we are toki a young
man aged twenty three made an attempt
to kill his father, mother and brother.
He came home at late hour Of the
night and attempted toget in the house,
when his father asked, "Who's thereT
He replied, ats me-" Some remark
dropped by the father at this reply ex-
cited his anger (his story and he shot
him on the spot. He then shot his
mother and brother and departed for
Cleveland, where he arrived at three
o'clock in the morning. His arrest
was made without any difficulty, he
accidentally coming up and looking
over the detectives shoulder at the
depot while the latter was holding
photograph of him in his hand and
talking 10 an acquaintance about 1t.
The detective turned to see who was
looking over his shoulder, and observing
that he was the man he wanted, took
hold OF him. The iamily's name Is
Noller. The old man was killed dead,
but the mother and brother still live,
but their recovery is doubtful. His
(the murderer's) story, as related above,
is the only explanation offered, so far,
for the commission of this inhuman
deed.

A Sad Condition for a Man.

Matthews Rankins, of Lewiston, Me.
has for twenty-three years been con-
fined to one chair. THE Journal of
that city says that when a schoolboy,
twenty-nine years ago, a companion
tripped him, and in falling his spine
was hurt. For two years after the acci-
dent he was able to walk around some,
then he lost the use of his legs, and
finally his whole body became rigid
His fingers and toes are all disjointed,
the only material joint in his body be-
ing in one thumb. He can use his hands
and ankles a little, and his eyes and
tongue fully. When he sleeps, his low
rocking-ohair is simply tipped back
and he is covered with blanket. He
has invented ingenious contrivances by
which he reads and writes great deal,
and he seems as happy and contented
as if he was not afflicted, though he suf-
fers great pain necessarily.

S"me fears of violence from the mol

Mr.. Wallace caused warrants to be IL
sued for their arrest and their case will
be heard forthwith in the City Court.

to leave thecity who refuse to quit work,
