THE Chicago Jewish Industrial School
for Poor Girls, which the ladies of the
Sinai Temple have conducted with
great success for six years, seems ami
mated with the Spirit Of Him who came
to seek and save the lost. Recently the
school has received donation of $50, 600
from Mr.. Leon Mandel, and it is pro-
posed to enlarge it so as to include boys,
and call it 1.-The kindergarten and Trade
School Tor Jewish Boys and Girls"
THE southern Baptist board has sus-
tanned a mission in Cuba, which it
characterizes as one of the most re-
markable works Of modern missions. In
little more than two years since the or
ganization of the first church LOO
have been baptized. Nine native
preachers have been engaged. Daily
schools as well as Sunday schools have
been established. The interest of the
people is shown by their contributing
S4,6l0 in one year. The report says that
almost one-half the population of
Havana are in sympathy with the mis-
sion, and that nearly half the dead of
Havana arc buried in the Baptist ceme-
terry. It is stated that 5000 persons
have applied for membership in the
churches, though many of these are
ignorant of the tue qualification for
church membership.
GENERAL GONZALES, the former Pres
ident of the Mexican Republic, and at
present governor Of the State of Guiana
juato, has recently prohibited bull
fights within his territory as democrat
izing, and because the money spent III
this sport could BE- much better en-
ployed. When these barbarous sports
are condemned as characteristic OF
Spanish civilization we are told that
they correspond with the brutality of
prize-hghting in Protestant countries.
There is no correspondence whatever.
Prize fighting, cocK-fghting. or any
other brutal entertainment is nowhere
national in Protestant countries. All
these and similar amusements are con-
fined to a few of the most degraded
class. But bull-6ghting is the enter
tainment of all classes in Spanish com
munities, especially on Sunday and
Corpus Christi. Roman Catholic priests
are in waiting to confess the bull-fghter
who is seriously injured lest he may die
without the consola ions and assurances
of that religion.-New York Observer

WORK FOE ALL.-For presumably
well-ordered communities our cities
show rich crop of depravity and
strong undercurrent of vice and
yiciousness. Among the people who
yield to their passions there exists
fear of man, of the law. of moral CEN
sure by the community at large, hut
little or no fear of God. There lives
and moves among US a multitude of
those whom the Savior stigmatized as
"whited sepulchres, fair to look at on
the outside, with nothing but rottenness
and corruption within. The cloak of
religion is used by thousands merely as
q cloak of responsibility with no godli
ness under it, and these are surely more
despicable and dangerous than what
are called the criminal Glasses" most
of whom were unfortunate in their early
surroundings, and were brought up in
a criminal atmosphere almost from in
fancy. 1t was our Lord who
had mercy on the Magdalen
and on the penltent thief But he
cried woe to the Pharisees, TO the
hypocrites, TO the scandal giyers. 1t
was he who gave the parable of the
Dives and Lazarus, of the Prodigal Son,
OF the Two men who went up into the
Temple to pray, and a multitude of
others which will continue to be the
guiding moral heritage of the world to
the end of time. To sinners who re-
open; but for the proud hypocrIte,

worlds goods, he held out small mercy
either here or hereafter. judging by
the horrors and scandals which the
newspapers reveal from day to day,
similar brood is nesting about and
wrigglng its way into the heart of our
American Society. The Catholic Church
has its own hands full, and surely fairly
fills its trust. What are the other
churches doing for society? Are they
faithful to their trusts and professions?

VICTORY WILL COME
The age isone of intense life in all de-
partments of ao!i7ity. in commerce and
industrial pursuits and the church must
be alive to keep pace with it. The
coming century will not be one of I'M
broken tranquility. There will be wars
and rumors of wars. internal conflicts
as well as struggles between nations,
which, with the new inventions of weap-
ons of war, may be more destructive
than any ever Waged brfore. But what
