THEY BLOW HOT AND COLD.
Rabbi Hess Has No Time for Pro-
hibitiOniStS.

Rabbi Hess delivered an eloquent adj
dress last evening at Mt. Zion syna-
gOgue, denunciatory of prohibition.
He not only handled the prohibitionists
without gloves. but attacked the princi-
pie of total abstinence in bitter terms.
The Jews, he said, are opposed to in
temperance. but they have been edu-
Gated to use liquor from the most an
cient days. They all drank, but none
get drunk. s'If you will show me a
show you Jewish outcast." No legis-
lation could ever make people temper
ate. If it is not wrong to drink mOder-
ately, it is wrong to prohibit their doing
so. The more teaching, preaching
and lecturing Oh this subject the
more drunkards there will be.
Ii your children are taught that liquor
is injurious, dangerous, and will kill
them on the spot, they will not take it
for granted that what their teachers say
is correct, but will want to prove it for
themselves. Speaking of legislation,
Rabbi Hess said that it was absurd to
see men speaking enthusiastically in
the capitol in favor Of SO-calied temper
ance legislation. and then going out and
sampling something stronger than st.
Paul water. There is more hypocrisy,
inconsistency and cant about these pro-
hibitionists than any other people, for
the cause itself engenders hypocrisy.
He laid great stress upon the antiquity
of moderate drinking, saying that it
had been tried and proved successful,
while this new idea was of mod
ern and very doubtful parentage.
The remedy for inebriety is not pro-
hibition. but social ostracism, and the
reason that drunken Jew is so seldom
seen is that instead of hailing man
who has just got oyera prolonged spree,
saying, ''Old man. | am so sorry you
have been SICK" then inviting him to
your house, the Jews, when they find
out that they cannot cure himtby ex-
postulation, promptly expel him from
their midst. He concluded with strong
appeal to the prohibitionists to join the
ranks of the moderate drinkers and
teach moderation, whereby drunken
ness will soon be eradicated. After the
address the quartette choir sang several
anthems in beautiful style.

LAND IN LITIGATION,
II Peculiar Suit for Possession OF
a Tract i'm the Sixth Ward.

Tract i'm the Sixth Ward.
A curious suit, involving the title of
tract of land in West st. Paul, which
old residents will remember as having
been at one time lake, will be tried at
the May term of the district court.
The plaintiff is Hobart W. Stevens,
while the defendants are E. Langevin,
Chester Hitchcock, and some twenty
five others. The lake was formerly
some sixty acres in extent, but the
water has gradually receded until at
this time the land is perfectly dry, and
in every way suitable for building sites.
besides being of great value. As the
waters of the lake dried up. those who
owned property on its borders advanced
their picket lines and took possession
under the laws of the state. which pro-
vide for such contingency. LII the
meantime. Uriah Lamprey. who owns
a. large tract of property adjacent. has
applied for and secured patent for the
whole tract, thus freezing out all other
claimants, against whom he now brings
suit for ejectment. Both sides have
plenty of the needful to carry on the
legal war, and some hard fighting will
take place in the courts before either
will Weld

An Observing Citizen.

Treasurer Symonds, of the New
market theater, is gradually but surely
wasting away. He says applicants for
seats were sufficiently peculiar in the
old Grand to make life burden: but
since the old Market hall has been ele-
waited to the rank of tirst-class theater,
the questions that are put to hiur are so
maddening that only the little brass
grating over the box office window pre-
vents him from committing murder
And small wonder. From 600 to 1900
people daily assault his citadel with
such queries as Amy seats left?"
Are these good seats?" "Can / see
the stageP" Has the floor been
ralsed?'' ''Is the show good?" Cant
you change these seats for me?" and a
thousand like interrogatiOns that have
been answered hundred times before
during the evening. Ordinary mortals
would go mad under the strain, while
others would lose their temper and be
saucy. But George appears to be one
of the extraordinary class.
