the one wish OF her life soon became to
contribute something toward the ban

Jews so kcenly suffered. Already in
her twentieth year she wrote lengthy
poem BE Faithful unto Death. first
published in 1886 in EduarI Duller's

she, in an elcvating strain, gives ex-

ESTHER CAD,

cocxistcnt with Regina Frohbcrg, and
granddaughter Of the celebrated chief
rabbi Of Hamburg, Jonathan Ebcn-
schultz was born in BresIau 1710. Dur
lng childhood she showed no inclination
for study, yes, her earlier teachers often
assured her parents that all trouble
spent upon nnr was in vain. She was
already in her tenth year when the
slumbcring germs within her awoke, and
after the first difficulties had been over
come she took 80 much pleasure in in
tcllectual occupations and scientific
persuits that the break Of day often
found the thirteen year old girl still
poring over the book that had been
opened on the preceding evening TIE
greatest Influence upon the cultivation
of her mind was exercised by dearly
loved brother, who impaired to her all
he had himself learned during the day
and provided her with scientific lectures.
She showed great partiality to writing
in French, learned Italian for the sake
Of music and also, later ou, English from
her brother, who for the sake of further
educating himself, had spend some years
in Dresden.
Esther Cad took lively interest in
the general improvement Of the social
condition Of her corelegionists and in
their religious advancement The news
that, thanks to the efforts Of the state
minister, Count Hoym. a systematic
Jewish school, the " WMclmSSchalc'
had been organized in her native city,
Breslau. in 1871, inspired her to the
composition of poem that she publish
ed in the "Nirdrrsch1eSischcn M0gazjn"
This was her first literary production.
In 1892 she was married to the Brcs-
lau mcl chant, Bernard; She did not,
however, live happily norlong with him,
but soon obtained divorce. Toward
the close Of the last century. we find her
in Berlin, where she stood in friendly
relations to Dorothca Ncit, Henrietta
Herr. aud others, one of her more init
mate friends was Mrs Won Genlcs; from
her, together with Henrietta Herr, she
took lessonSi in French.

About mile furtheron we pitched our
tents along the banks Of small but
rushing stream The next morning
Ersini, his two favoritcs, and |, repaired
to a spot where we were to enjoy most
singular spectacle. Beneath q fig tree
a quantity Of yiscous liquid brought
by one of our attendants was poured
upon mass ofleaves spread around the
trees stem. A few Jumps of roasted
flesh were then fastened to some
branches Of the same tree. This done
we crept into large cave, rolling a
huge stone to its entrance, but leaving
an opening so as to have a full view Of
the tree We had not been halfar hour
penned up in this hole when an enorm-
Gus tiger, probably attracted by tho
smell of the roasted flesh, came with one
bound, as if Ieaping down from the sky.
Without loosing his time, the blood
thirsty beast jumped up to get his prey,
The greedy animal was, perhaps, for the
first time in his life, painfully disap
pointed, the object Of his greediness
having been so skillfully suspended that
it did not yield even to his destructive
claws. But, while making these vain
attempts he had the modification of
perceiving that his claws were en-
which it was not easy to get rid. Fol-
lowing his instinct the beast carried one
of his molested paws to the spot behind
his ear hoping thus to remove the de-
testable mass; but alas it, instead of
sinking down, fastened itself to the ear
and the paw, when touching the ground
again, met with another cluster. The
tiger now grew impatient, ragged and
wallowed upon he ground. This was
just what had been reckonel upon. AS
he weltered the whole heap Of leaves

appearance of green bear rather than
an animal with h-ntifully striped skin.

MORE RECENT POETEosEs.
Many Of the women thus far mention
cd, Frohberg and Gad, Mcndelssohn and
Herr, more especially the Meyer sisters,
were wholly characteristic of the spirit
Of their times: that of religious fr volity
and lax morality. The significance and
sacrcdness of marriage had been entirely
disregarded toward the close of tho
eighteenth and the commencement of
the nineteenth century. Censurable
circumstances between man and wife
were by no means rare and, consequently,
! case, Of divorce were likewise frequent
occurrences. According to Henrietta
Herr S assertion, only that marriage was
regarded as holy. in which the hearts
and minds were in perfect or, at least mo
derate concord; with the dissolution OF

wife, the sacredness of marriage. were
regarded as profane, yes, even III the

An English peer and some
friends were returning from the
races. In the adjoining compart.
ment were eight book makers who,
cleaned out by successive failures,
were travelling without tickets,
hoping by turn of good luck to
escape payment. AT last one Of
them hit upon a brilliant idea.
Pulling his cap down over his eyes
and buttoning his coat he went to
the carriage of the noble aud his
friends, and, assuming an official
air, collected all their tickets.
These he distributed among his
friends, and on reaching London
the noble lord narrowly escaped,
seeing himself and his friends
taken into custody for attempting
to defraud the railway company. It
was only by paying their fare a
eecond time that they escaped
from the clutches of the railway
servants.

A Lawyers Little Bill.

When Madame Restell, the noted
New York abortionist, committed
suicide to escape the penalty OF her
crimes. she left property valued at
$3.50. 600. Lawyer Stewart was en-
gagged by her heirs to settle the es-
tate. Stewart read the will before
tho heirs, and, as there was some
abstraction expressed by some
of them al to the terms of the will,
he gave them some advice. He
also disbursed $57, 075 for necessary
expenses. In August, 1879, he pre-.
scented bill for $l8. $50, or q per
cent. of the estimated value OF the
real estate. The heirs refused to
pay the bill, and Stewart brought
suit. Stewart stated that he CON-
sidered his services In reading the
will and advising against contest
worth $4,000. It also appeared
that some Of his charges were at
the rate of $1,000 per day.
