miles below where the accident occurred

(San Francisco Pest.

There is nothing so noble and touching as
a really spontaneous act OF generosity, after
all. The other day a rough. careless looking
stranger was walking up Missouri street,
near Sixth, when he observed a lot of hood
lums clustered round the gate Of a small
farmhouse, in front of which a poor woman
was weeping bitterly, surroundee by her ter
rited children. Ascanty array of household
goods on the pavement showed that il was a
case of ejectment.
What are you abusing that woman for?'
demanded the imam from below address

lord; "she can't pay her rent, and I'm going

the stranger, Indignantly; whats the
amount she owes you?'

The evictor respectfully turned over a re-

scenes that was ever enacted within its
borders. About 9 O'Clock the ferry
boat (Which runs upon a vire) in
attempting to leave the western
shore came IN contact with, a jam of float
ing logs which impeded its progress and
forced it down the river, causing the wire TO
stretch to neh a degree that when the occu-
pants of the boat cut the ropes which held
il it touched the surface of the water. A
RATA with two persons upon it was seen ap-
preaching within a few rods OF it by those
who were watching with intense interest the
fate of those upon the boat, who seemed in
Smminent peril, and before a move could
be made to loosen the fastenipgS
on the eastern shore the wire caught
the loader of the raft. One OF
the men avoided it, while it caught the
second and tossed him into the water. With
extraordinary presence of mind he caught
the wire, and for two minutes sustained Tbs
terrible pressure of the current. The vibra
tons of the wire every ten or fifteen second!
were such as to jerk him ten or twenty fee

The Jews in Russia.
New York Herald

Russia and Germany are to-day Dhe only
two Christian countries in the world in
which the old f~erocious anti-Hebrsw spirit
of the Middle Ages exists and tiourishes. In
Catholic France and in Protestant England
the legal barriers that blocked their way TO
advancement socislly, commercially and
politically have long since been swept away
but in Germany and Russia. and in the
latter country especially, the Jews in many
sections are treated in much 5he same
fashion as the Chinese are by the hood
lums of San Francisco. In the beginning
of the present month, for instance, a series
of riots broke out in Kieff. The shops
of the Jewish merchants were broken
into and their contents scattered on the
streets. These disgraceful scenes were re-
peated nextday. Finally the authorities sue
ceeded in quel6ng the disorder, arresting
AS many as 500 persons. At the same time
anti-Jewish riots were raging in Kishineff,
the chief town Of Bessarabia, = city of more
than 100, 600 Inhabitants, of whom one-third
are Hebrews. We are glad TO see that the
Government hes at last resolutely detern'
ined to crush. out this fanat;eal intolerance
and bigotry. According to our cable dis
patches yesterday the Governor General oil
Kharkoff has issued a proclamation con
demning the persecution, declaring that the
Jews are entitled to protection equally with
the other subjects of the Car, and that in
future the laws will be sternly and vigooous
ly enforced. 1t is to be hoped the lessor
will not be lost upon Germany.
