From the Hebrew Standard
Quite a number OF oar young men are
studying for the medical profession. We
do not wish to deter them from this laud-
able pursuit, for physicians calling Is
one Of the most honorable, ,ennobling, hu
manizing, and useful IN the world. But
all is not gold that glitters, and the fol.
lowing are some of the sweets of a doc
tors life: Ii he visits few Of his pa
tients when they are well, it is to get his
dinner; and if he does not do so, 1t is be-
cause he cares more for the fleece than
the flock. If he goes to the synagogue
regularly, it IS because he has nothing
else to do, if he does not go 1t Is because
ne has no respect for the Sabbath nor
religion. If he speaks reverently of Ju-
daism, he is hypocrite; if he doesn't he
is materialist. If he dresses neatly, he
is proud; if he does not, he is wanting In
self-respect. If his wife does not visit
YOU, she is 60 stuck up" if she does, she
is fishing for patients for her husband.
If he mas good turnout, he is extrava-
CANT; il he uses a poor one on the score
of economy, he is deficient IN necessary
pride. If he does not write prescription
Cor every trifing ailment, he Is careless;
il he does, "he deluges one with medl-
cine" If he makes parties, it is to soft
soap the people to get their money; If he
does not make them. he is afraid of a
cent. If his horse is fat, it Is because he
has nothing to do; if he is lean, it is be-
cause he isn't taken care Of. If he drives
fast, it is to make people believe some
body is very sick; if he drives slowly,
he has no interest in the welfare OF h1s
patients. If the patient reco7ers, 1t Is
owing to the good nursing he received
if he dies, "tke doctor did not under
stand his sickness" Ii he talks much,
eve don't like doctor to tell every
thing he knows" or, she is altogether
too familiar" if be don't talk, "we like
to see a doctor sociable. If he says
ANYTHING about politics, /" he had better
let it alone;" if he don't say anything
about it, "we like to see man show
| bis colore." If he does not come lmme
diaiely when sent for, I" he takes thing
too easy" if he sends in his bill, g he
IN a terrible hurry for his money" l

PREDICTED.
The Decision Against the Civil
Rights Bill.

WASHINGTON, d. c., October 49,
The decision of the United States su-
preme court in the civil-rights case was
not entirely unexpected. The decision
in a similar case last winter had created
the impression that the court would
affirm the unconstitutio1ality of the law.
The persons who have manifested the
greatest interest in the decision are the
Washington hotelkeepers. The hotels
since the law was passed have not re-
ceived colored persons. No prosecu-
ton has been attempted. There has
been so much doubt as to the constitu-
tionslity that there has been no disposi-
ton to attempt to enforce the law except
sgainst one or two restaurant-keepers.
The decision of yesterday in effect af-
firms its constitutionality as to the Dis
trict of Columbia and the Territories.
Several of the hotel-keepers declare that
they will give the law no more recog-
rition north of the Potomac than they
VIII be required to do south of
the Potomac river, and that the
hotelkeepers generally wauld doubtless
llour the risk of the penalties of the
act rather than to admit negroes to their
tables. The supplementary civil-rights
act was under consideration from Janu-
ary to March, 1875, and during the con-
slieration of 1t occurred the protracted
| deadlock IN the house which has be-
come historical. Mr.. Randall was
the leader of the opposition. The
b1l was passed in the house by
a vote of 148 to 113. The Repub-
lieans who voted against it were Butler,
Harrison, and Thornburgh, of Tennes-
SEE; Hyde and Stanard, of Missouri;
Lswndes, of Maryland; Sever and Am
bbr Smith, of Virginia; Walter Phelps,
of New Jersey; Ray, of Illinois; st.
john, of New York; and Thomas, of
Virginia; and III the republican press of
thu day their names we're often printed
in black letters under the caption:
"fhe republican enemies of civil
rights. In the senate the bill was
passed-yeas, 38; nays, 26; absent, 9.
Tie affirmative vote was wholly republi-
can and among the negative votes were
these republicans: Carpenter, of Wis
colsin; Ferry, of Connecticut; Hamilton,
of Texas, Lewis of Virginia, Schurz,
Srague and Upton. Mr.. Carpenter
made an argument in the senate against
tht constltutlonallty of the law: de-
clRed that all of its provisions were in
conflict with the constitution, and pre-
dided that the supreme court would
hoh it invalid and void. Edmunds, on
the other hand, was the advocate of the
corstitutionality of the bill. He insist
ed hat the purpose of the bill was to
protect the people against discrimina-
tiols founded exclusively upon
color. In the eight years since
the bill passed it has failed to justify
Interpretation of its friends or the pre-
dic6ons of its enemies. The first Judi
cial opinion under the new law was de-
llvered by Judge Emmons, of Tennes-
see, who, IN charge to the grand jury
in reference to the civil rights bill, de-
clae1 it to be unconstitutional; main
tailed that the United States could not
interfere with hotel proprietors or com
mon carriers, and asserted the right of
| the states to take care of their own pri-
| vate affairs.

LONDON, October 16.-At the Grand
Theater Saturday evening, during the
performance of Miss Minnie Palmer,
the American actress, a large bouquet
was thrown to her from a private box
occupied by three swells. AS she picked
it up note dropped from it and fell
upon the stage in full view of the audi
ence. The lady secured it as she was
leaving the stage and turned it over to
her husband and manager. 1t proved
to be an invitation to Miss Palmer,
couched in suggestive language, to take
supper with the three at the German en-
bassy, after performance. Mr.. Rogers,
the husband, Immediately entered the
box, seized the biggest of the trio,
thrashed him soundlv, and elected him
from the theater. The crowd outside
took the fellow in hand, stripped off his
clothes and pelted him with mud until
he finally escaped. The other two in
continently bolted. Mr.. Rogers called
atthe German embassy yesterday to ascer-
tain, if possible, if the writers of the
note to Miss Palmer were in any manner
connected with the legation and was in
formed that the members of the German
embassy were gentlemen.

A Fair Sale,

From the San Francisco Post
They had fair over IN Oakland the
other evening, which was held Just oppo-
site tho residence of q cross old bachelor,
the richest man on the street. As the
receipts were rather thin on account of
the numerous wrestling matches occurr-
ing recently, the managers secured the
services of a local band to enllven up
matters. The band consisted of nine
pieces and a substitute, the latter to
play the big drum when the regular nine
went out after beer. They were only
half way through their first rendition of
"Nelly Bly," in four fats, when a fear
full outcry was heard across the way,
and, on repairing to the door, the Fair
Committee-or, to be more extract, the
committee of the fair-beheld the
aforementioned capitalist leaning out of
his window.
"What do You people mean by this
Internal racket ?" roared the exasperated
man.
Why-this-thi is fair, explained
the lady who ran the grab bag.

party. "You call it a fair to rob peo-

"Six dollars and SIX bits, and the

either" said the Treasures.
"And how much longer does your
fraud on the public run ?" asked the
party at the window.
Three evenings.
"Verv good, that makes about $40

to bed.

thing in the Chinese department. He re-

to converse with him in French, and,
during a somewhat extended converse
ton, noticed lady listening to every
word, and the uncomfortable thought
that this stranger might be cliicising
her French came into her mind. This

her when the lady later approached her
and politely asked: "Wiil you please

LIFE FOR LIFE.
A Remarkable Double Murder In
New York City.

New YORK, October 16.-John Irving
and John Walsh, widely known burg
lars, shot and killed each other IN
Shang Draoer's saloon, 466 Sixth Ave-
nue., early this morning. They had
bitter quarrel and it is said that six
weeks ago they met in another saloon
and drew pistols on each other, but were
separated.
The police story is that John Irving
and "Jack, the Mick" were in Draper's
saloon shortly before 2 o'clock this
morning, both being filed with liquor.
They quarrelled about some rascality Ill
which they were mutually interested.
They became noisy and Billy Porter
entered and tried to stop the row. His
interference only raised the rioters to
fury aad both whipped out revolvers
and fred at close quarters. Every one
in the saloon sought cover as the double
report rang out The shots were fred
at the same instant and with like effect.
irving fell dead with Johnny the
Mick's" bullet in his brain and the
Mick fell, shot through the
heart. Neither lived long enough
to breathe twice after being shot.
"Billy" Porter and the gang ran out to
the street. but the reports of pistols
were heard by the police and Porter was
arrested. Harry Hope, Shang Draper,
William Vosburgh, Pat Neary, and John
Leary all say that Porter did not fire
shot. Every person suspected as being
in the saloon at the time of the
shooting was arrested. John 1r-
wing is of Patchen Avenue, Brooklyn,
burglary notoriety and Jack Walsh,
alias "Jack the Mick, is one of the ac-
completes in the robbery of Jacob Rup-
pert's bank messenger two years ago.
Billy Porter was Irving's "pal " in his
crimes and Ia their escape from Ray
mond Street jail, Brooklyn. where they
were confined for the Patchen Avenue
burglary. Bank officers and police re-
ioice that two of the boldest of bank
burglars were so readily removed by
each other.

FOrtY.three Years in Bed.

ltrOm an Independence fhO.) Special
This city, within the last five years,
has been the scene of many romantic
incidents, of blood-curdling crimes, of
acts of dare deviltry unequaled, and of
bravery unparalleled, but now comes a
case of endurance and suffering seldom
equalled. Ia 1887 Henry Rodawald,
young cooper, immigrated to this coun-
try from Germany. Two years after
ward he went back to his native land
and married Miss Louisa Rummel.
With his wife he came to this city and
settled down to work. In 1840 Mrs.
Rodawald gave birth to a daughter,
since which time she has been unable
to leave her bed. The most eminent
physicians have been consulted, but to
no purpose. For over forty years this
unfortunate creature has been in bed,
during which time two children have
been born to her. She is able to sit up
but little, yet she is always cheerful and
in good humor. In appearance she is
very lean and white, though it does not
show on her countenance the suffering
she has endured. She is very well m
formed, having spent much Of her time
in reading instructive books and news
papers. She superintends the house
hold, giving all orders to servants, does
all the sewing for the family, even max
ing her husbands clothing. During
the long time that she has been an in
valid, Mrs. Rodawald has employed but
three servants, the first one staying with
her as a domestic twenty-five years.
Mrs. Rodawald is now SO years old and
her husband II.
