Was Columbus a Jew2

Jews figure prominently in the history
of the discovery of America. The plans
and calculations for Columbus expedition
were largely the work of two Hebrew as
tronomers and mathematicians. Two Jews,
also, were employed as Interpreters by Co.
lumbus, and one of them, Luis de Torres,
was the first European to set foot in the
New World. When Columbus sighted the
island of San Salvador he imagined he
was approaching portion of the East Ash
atic coast, and he sent Torres-who was
engaged for his knowledge of Arabic
as,ore to make inquiries of the natives.
Il was, probably, this Torres who was
the Madrid Jew to whom Columbus be-
queahed half mark of silver in his will.
Another curious fact is that it has been
seriously suggested, by DR.. Delitzsch we
believs, that Columbus himself was Jew,
or of Jewish birth. The name Christie
pher was frequently adopted by converts,
while tie surname Colon was borne by
distinguished family of Jewish scholars.
Christoher's brother, Diego, bore origin
ally the ,ewish name Jacob, which sounds
surprisingly like Shem Kadosh. Perhaps
some jewish scholars in Italy will make
inquiry int the validity of this daring sug-
geStiOn. World.

Ivy on the Front Walls.

European travellers visiting the United
States invariably declare that the resi-
dence districts of Boston are more attract
i've than those of New York. There is an
easy explanation to be offered for their
preference for the New England capital.
Boston has kound substitute for shade
trees in the finest residence quarter. The
long blocks of substantially built brick
and stone houses there are covered with
ivy trained as high as the second floor line
or to the roof, as the taste of the occupants
requires less or more of this beautiful
screen of fresh foliage.
The absence of trees passes unnoticed
when the eye is refreshed by constant
glimpses of verdure on the house fronts.
On the hottest midsummer days the resi-
dence streets of Boston look cool and at
tractive. The monotonous character of
the architecture is concealed by this most
graceful and luXuriant of vines. In the
streets of New York there are fewer shade
trees than are to be seen in Boston, and
hence there is more urgent need of vine
planting; but the residents here have been
slow to appreciate the necessity for screen
ing and decorating their brown stone fronts.
New York streets have bare and cold as
pect. Ivy planting on a large scale is need
ed in order to improve and beautify the
massively built residences. - New York
