One of the "Holy cities" of the Jeu-.
An Old synagogue-Relics.
Hebron, Jerusalem, Safed, and Tibe-
rias became the 'holy cities Of the Jews
after the Roman persecution had ceased
somewhat, The Sanhedrim was at IT,
berias for a number of years. Thirteen
synagogues were here at one time, each
one having a school connected with it as
certainly as the present churches have
their Sunday schools. A Jewish school
of languages became the center of the
Jewish faith. To learn Hebrew from a
rabbi Of Tiberias is even yet considered O
great privilege.
The old synagogue carries one back
1000 years. Its roof is supported by
stone arches and columns. In the center
is great cage like inclosure, constructed
of wood which is dried and twisted by
centuries of exposure, but yet as sound
as when hewed from the log. This is
the reading place. Ascending the steps
which lead 10 the interior. the rabbi opens
the scroll and begins TO teach and intone.
The assembled congregation walk around
the cage, muttering and gcSturing, some
Ginning in high key, or initiating the
blasts of trombone through the hands.
Some weep as they frantcally throw up
their arms; others kiss their phylacteries
as they fold and unfold them about the
left arm and the head; others march
around and beat time with their hands
and feet. Any reference 10 the coming
of the Messiah excites them to frenzy.
Little else remains n Tiberias 10 inter-
est the student. Re les of the past are
found intermirgled with the necessities
Of the present. Disks cut from the
syenite columns of the old temple serve
as mil stones to grind barley for the sons
of Mohammed; fine old porphyry col
umns are thrown upon the ground and
followed out for public horse troughs;
threshing floors are paved with bits Of
frieze chiseled after Grecian designs paid
for by Herod Antipas.
The cattle are slaughtered in the public
thoroughfares; the streets are hopelessly
filthy; the bazars are unattractiye; the
people are depressed and, as the drago-
man tells US. 1.-THE king of the feas'' re-
sides here. Yet here come the pilgrim
Jews TO die, in order that their bones
may rest close 20 the tomhs Of their wise
men who have gone before: some de-
clare that here the Messiah will appear.

The Triumph Of Gunlowdcr.

knights, brave with their lives. hesitated
to risk a property SO valuable aud so
hard to replace. Thus the mobiles retired
to the rear of the battle, and in the pay
of the Fifteenth century princes half
armed light cavalry appeared, doing real
service, but requiring time to obtain any
prestige. The knights did not learn
their lesson, but went on making armor
heavier, TO resist the effects Of powder.
They had a momentary success at For
novo, but at Marignano and Ravenna the
Swiss and Spanish infantry handled them
roughly, while Payia proved their inef-
ficiCncy to all. 1t seemed TO them ter
rible that such a knight as Bayarl
should have his back broken by a pinch
Of powder and shot from Il common

Mhn MnI,n the nest sailors.

The American able seaman Is a thing
ef the past. Indeed, he isn't wanted.
His very Americanlsm places him at a
disadvantage N seeking a berth. He is
not a good subordinate, And lac knows
too much for his own good. The best
sailors, from the masters standpoint, are
Scandinavians, Norweginns, Swedes and
Dutchmen. Italians and Frcnchmen are
In more demand in the winter for southern
voyages. as being better acclmated, but
at other times are not preferred.
Negroes do not make the best sailors,
but are useful in the cabin. and there are
usually two or three aboard every ship.
But the best seamen are rarely anything
more. The men who rise 10 he officers
are almost always Americans, English-
men or Germans. Edwin Atwel.

craARETTE PIoTUREs.

About two months ago the san
Francisco Chronicle uttered a not
protest against cigarette pictures
AZ first the cigarette manufacturers
nut into the packages portraits OF
popular actresses, but these were
not what the cigarette purchasers
desired, for they were modest por-
traits. The portraits were then Sc
leeted from the dives, and the pic
lures were made full length views
If immodest women in immOdest
attire and postures. The result mas
been that the sale of the cigarette
packages has enormously increased
because the cultivation Of vicious
tastes enlarge the class Of purchasers
who buy simply to secure the lewd
pictures. The sale of these articles
Is debasing.
The evil of such vile and lewd
pictures circulating with perfect
freedom among boys-and some
times, it may be feared, among
Qirls-cannot be overestimated or
overstated. Children are only too
quick to receive impressions, espee-
tally If they are in the direction OF
matters forbidden them, and the
barriers Of purity and modesty
which tender parental care and
painstaking education have reared
about them are first undermined
and then swept away altogether by
the flood Of vice which finds its
source and fountainhead in just
such things as these pictures.

AN ApnnRARLE sUGaEsrIoN.

ED. CAPITAL JOURNAL have
more than once been "taken in and
done forn by ex-convicts, whom /
have tried to help make professed-
| ly new start on the road to honesty
and virtue. But tits hard to preach
to them about christian philan-
J thropy and then refuse substantial
help when 1t looks like risking a few
dollars. Then occasionally an en-
cOuraging circumstance occurs. Not
long ago, a young man, the son of a
hard drinking woman, called at my
house TO express his evidently sim
cere thanks for little acts Of consider
alton and for kindly meant advice
given while he was In the peniten-
tiary, As we sat together ut dinner
he told me more of his history
early fatherless, with a drunken
mother, without education, pushed
out into the world 10 do for himself,
he fell into bad ways and company
and was convicted of stealing in
company with others. Starting by
the first train after his release 10 a
job of work, secured him by rel
atlve, woman, God bless her, he
had hastened direct to show his APP
probation of some little kindnesses.
He asked for nothing and was with
difficulty constrained to come I'm
and eat n meal just ready. But
what struck me most was that
while he had, soon after incarcer-
alton readily signed a pledge of total
abstinance / presented TO him, and
declared himself completely broken
of the habit OF chewing and smok-
ing, he regretted that, during the
nearly two years Of his imprison-
ment, he had never been taught to
read or write. Surely imprison-
ment should aim 10 be refOrmatOry
as well as punitive, and there should
be paid teacher and moral instruo-
tor, not 10 say a chaplain, TO give at
least the udlments of education to
the illlterate who find their way
there. In some penitentiaries there |
are sunday schools and religious /
services regularly conducted by |
volunteer philanthropists But since
Father J. l.. Parrish's health failed I
they are scarce, here, and the only /
available hour ON Sundays occurs |
when the ministers are all engaged /
n church services. Other penlten-
laries have schools or classes ar I

The stories regarding domestic infelic
tiles at the White House seem bound to
get into general circulation now that
Mrs. Whitney has seen fit to come into
the newspapers. Mr.. ingalls, gives that
lady gentle but forcible reminder in
an interview published to-day, and tells
the truth when he affirms that President
Cleveland owes more to the considera-
ton of his political adversares than any
other public man in Our history. He
says the stories have been the common
rumor Of the street for many months,
but are entirely of Democratic origin
and circulation, and the senator says elf
the partisans of the executive are wise
they will be silent" He paws Mrs.
Cleveland truthful compliment in say
ing:
The mistress of the White House has
no enemy and no rival in the affection
ate admiration of the American people.
Amid many temptations to levlty, and
many opportunities for frivolity, she has
borne herself with unexampled grace,
dignity and composure. Adulation has
not disturbed the charming and unaffect-
ed simplicity of her character. She will
carry with her into retirement the una
bated honor and regard of all who have
been so fortunate as to know her. She
will remain among the noblest illustra-
tons of American womanhood 80 long as
virtue has friend and beauty a cham
pion.
Mr.. Ingalls, closes his advice to Mrs.
Whitney and others that "silence is
golden" in the present case. by saying:
"when it becomes necessary for hus-
band to obtain a certificate of good NOR
al character, and to prove by the testi-
mony of experts that he is faithful, con-
siderate and tender toward a young,
lovely and affectionate wife, he may be
innocent, but he certainly is unfortu-
nate"
