He Could Not Speak English.

DR.. Isidore Labatut, who died re-
Gently at New Orleans In the ninety
eighth year of his age, was in several
ways a remarkable man. Although
a native of Louisiana and q resi-
dent Of that state for the larger
part Of his life. he could not speak a
word of English, and persistently refused
to learn the language. He received his
professional education in Paris, where
he studied for sixteen years.
While in France he was attached to
the surgeons corps of Napoleon's army
as II student in 1904. He saw Nicholas
of Russia, the emperor of Austria and
King Frederick William III of Prussia
when they arrived in Paris, and he was
there when Louis XVIII returned after
the Punishment of Napoleon to the island
of Elba, and was also present at the de
feat of Napoleon at Waterloo. Grad
uating in 1918, DR.. Labatut returned to
New Orleans in 1929.
He was possessed Of large inherited
wealth, and in the practice of his profes
sion made no difference between the
treatment given invalids unable to pay
and those who could satisfy any profess
sional demand for fees. He retained his
mental faculties to the last, but for a
twelvemonth previous to his decease
spent his time in well earned retirement

wild Animals in Texas.

wolves, coyotes, cats and panthers, "
says The Bracket Tex.) News, "are
multiplying under the protection Of the
barbed wire fence and the apathy Of the
state legislators. A few years since a
thorough scalp law would have settled
forever the wild animal question in
Texas at small expense. Now it will
cost twice the money, and meantime
stockmen and farmers have lost many
times the money in calves, colts and
sheep killed. In a few years things will
be much worse. A ranchman. G. A.
Anderson, Of Kinney county. has been
compelled to buy pack Of hounds and
turn huntsman to protect his flock from
the increasing ravages Of panthers. The
same thing is happening all over Texas.

The Jewish Chronicle relates this in
cident Of the persecution of Jews at
Odessa: "a Mr.. Axelrod, accompanied
by his wife and baby in arms, intended
to 20 by train to the Khadshibey Salt
lakes. distance Of about eight miles,
There is always rush for seats on this
line in consequence Of the inadequacy Of
cars. However, Mr.. Axelrod managed
to get seat, but his wife was left
standing. Upon his rising to let his
wife sit down certain general quickly
occupied the vacant seat. Mr.. Axelrod
appealed to this general (who, as event
ually TRANSFERRED, is great friend Of the
governor) to allow the lady to sit down,
as, with child to hold, it was very diff.
cult to stand for over an hour. The re-.
ply he got was 'Parschivie Schide' q. g.,

the question, particularly with gen
eral whose influence and authority are
like kings in miniature. Two young
Jewish students, however, protested
against such conduct and they were i'm

sible for Jew to walk the streets with.

Oliver Hitchcock, the Park row beans
and beef man, has made more money
from the sale of the two articles Of diet
mentioned than any man in the world.
His fortune is estimated to be $3.50, 900.
He Is said to own considerable stock in

have large sum invested in bonds and
mortgages. He is n remarkably sturdy
man for his age-he being "a years old.
Every day finds him behind his counter,
at the corner of Beekman street, slicing

Boston vegetable. He works only four

The Jews and Jerusalem.

The Jews believe that Palestine will
again come into their hands. They thus
read the promises of the Bible. and there
are thousands of these Jews of Jerusa-
lem who have come here to wait the day
when the Lord will descend to earth and
take his chosen people out Of the hands
of the Turks and again build up their
city. Upon the ruins Of Solomon's tenn
pie now stands the great mosque OF
Omar, which Is to the Mohammedana
the hottest place outside of Mecca.
A great wall Of stone surrounds this
temple plateau, and this wall is believed
by antiquarians to have been a part Of
the old temple wall. Inside of this wall
a Jew can never come, and though it be
the hottest of holy places to him he can
never look upon it. Turks in uniform
guard the gates, and only secured ad.
mission through a letter to the sultan's
governor Of Jerusalem, who sent me
with guard Of Turkish soldiers to go
through.
1t is the custom Of the Jews, however,
to go on certain days Of every week to
place outside this wall, and there, lean.
ing with their heads against the stone,
they wall over the loss Of Jerusalem,
and pray God to give back the land to
his chosen people. This is known as the
Jews wailing place, and when visited
1t found about fifty men in long gowns,
and Like number of Jewish women
with shawls over their heads, weeping
and praying. Many Of the men had
white boards, and the curly locks in
front Of their ears were Of spun silver.
Others had boys with them. Some
were In their prime, and the tears-gen-
uine tears-ran down the faces Of all,
and some Of them were convulsed with
sobbing as they leaned there and prayed.
The wailing Of one old Jewish woman
rings in my ears to this day, and the
whole cut an impression into my mem
DRY that can never be effaced.-FranI
