lrS liberty OF conscience to wOrShipning God
was principle which had existed from the
early settlement, and that principle, above all
others, should be respected II these people

THE AMOUNT MELTED BY THE HEBREW FAIR
FOR THE CHARITY AND BUILDING FUND.
The Hebrew fair, held at the National Rifles
armory during the past week, was a most re-
markable success. The object of the undertaking
was to raise money for the Hebrew charity and
building fund. The Hebrews always take care
OF their own poor, and such other needy as
come TO their notice, without much OStenta-
| ton, and are not in the habit of raising money
IN any public way. But they took hold of this
m wi,a energy every one contributed and they
In freely from the first, and when they were all
collected they were displayed in manner to
| make them most attractive. Everything was
arranged with excellent taste, SO as to render
| the lair very attractive and the attendance

$4,000 clear as nearly as can be estimated at

Thousand dollars. Everything sold in what
ever way. brought a good price, and those voted
| Tor brought many times their value. The
bicycle, valued at about 500, was not won un-

All the other things voted for went off accord
