The Jewish Population of France.
London Times. ......
The Soliel has ascertained that the
Jews in France number about $50, 900,
these figures being inclusive of Alge-
ria, and they are officially divided
into twelve circumscriptIons, having
as many consistories, viz: Paris, with
q population of $4,000; Marseilles,
with $500; Nancy, with $500, and We
soul, with $3.50; Bordeaux, with 5000;
Lille, with $500; Besacon, with
5000; Bayonne, with $500, and
Lyons, with 1900, while the
three provinces of Algeria have
49, 900 Jews, of which $4,000 are in the
Province of Oran, $4,000 in that of
Algiers and 5000 ia that of Constan-
tine. The Israelites OF Paris are di-
vided into two rites-the German and
the Portuguese-the former adhering
to the pronunciation of Hebrew GUS
tomary in Poland, Alsace and the
North of Europe, while the second
pronounce Hebrew in accordance
with the ancient custom in the South
and the East. The German rite pre-
walls in three of the four synagogues
of Paris, while the Portuguese rite is
observed in the fourth, which
has not been opened for many
years. The Jews also have two
seminaries for the education of the
priesthood, although the second is,
more strictly speaking, an ordinary
school to which only boys intended
for an ecclesiastical profession are adj
mitted. There are ordinary Jewish
schools with accommodation for about
1000 children, and the Jews have a
great many charitable institutions in
Paris, including a hospital with
nearly 800 beds in the Rue Picpus, an
orphanage, two or three asylums and
refugees exclusively for Jews. There
are also thirty mutual relief societies
for men and ten for women, in addi-
| ton to associations for facilitating
marriages, and for the burial of the
poor.

The Grand Canyon of Colorado.

The Grand Canyon of Colorado.
From Scribner's Magazine.
The Great Granite Gorge is about
forty miles In length. The portion
from its head to the Bright Angel
Creek, some fifteen miles, is narrow,
dark and gloomy. 1t stands at the
upper gateway of the great canyon
as if by its very frown to keep back
the intruder and guard from vulgar
eyes and sordid greed the grandeur,
the beauty and hidden treasure OF
the lower canyon. At the Bright
Angel Creek everything changes
the granite slopes are f1atter, they
are of softer black granite, cut into
sharp pinnacles and crags, and seem
more as if formed of very coarsely
stratified slate.
The canyon grows more and more
picturesque and beautiful the farther
we proceed. The granite has lost its
awful and threatening look and slopes
back in beautiful hillsides of variega-
ted black, gray and green.
AT the side canyons, and from the
bends of the river, the upper portions
of the whole gorge are brought into
view, showing the great marble and
sandstone cliffs, benched back far
away from the river, while mountains
jut in close between the side canyons
and washes nearly mile and quar-
ter in height. AS we look down the
river, or up low side canyon, with
the placid water between It's polished
walls of black and gray, and green
for a foreground there rise above the
dark sandstone, tier unpon tier,
bench upon bench, terrace upon ter
race, stepping back farther and far
ther, and higher and higher, and in
immensely OF height and proportion
seeming to tower almost over our
heads. First above the dark sand
stone come the fiattened slopes of the
lime and ineralized matter, in hori-
zontal layers of yellow, brown, white,
red and green.
Then rise sheer walls of stained
marble 1000 feet or more, the
lower portions yellow, brown
and red, the ,coloring of red
growing brighter as it nears
the top. Above 3 this smaller
benches Of marble, at the top
of each a little mesa covered with !
green bunch grass and bushes, and
above these dozen or more terraces
of scarlet and fiamecolored sandstone,
stained on their outer points with
black, and the little benches between
them relieved by the bright green of
the greasewood and bunch grass, the
whole crowned with perhaps couple
of thousand feet of the lighter gray,
yellow and white sandstone lodges,
capped by pinnacles and spires, tur-
rents and domes, in every imaginable
shade, size aud proportion.

PITTSBURG A LEADER.
Local Blast Furnaces Have an Average
Weekly Capacity of
MORE THAN TEN THOUSAND TONS.
The General Grievance Committee Finds
Some New Complaints.
ANOTHER FURNACE BLOWN IN AT ETNA

A comparison of the condition of the blast
furnaces of the country for the last month
puts Pittsburg in the lead by an average
weekly output of over 10000 tons. These
furnaces use charcoal, anthracite and coke.
and of the charcoal furnaces there are more
In blast than at any time within the past
year, while their capacity is said 10 be
ahead of anything reported in the last two
years.
In the charcoal list there have been no
changes in Pittsburs, while with the anthra-
cite furnaces, the Pennsylvania Steel Com
pany'S Spiegel furnace has resumed the
making of iron, and tine st. Charles No. 2
has been finally abandoned. Among those
using coke in this district, all of the furnaces
IN the Edgar Thomson plant are in blast;
one of the Isabella furnaces has been blown
out to be refined, and No. was blown in
yesterday. Soho went out last Friday.
OF the total weekly capacity of 124, ,O59
tons In all the furnaces, Pittsburg turns out
as her share %, 12j or more than one-ffth of
all other furnaces in the United States. Dur
inE the last month five furnaces have been
added, with a total increase IN capacity of 672
tons. Plttsburg has Is furnaces IN blast and
four out OF blast These latter have a weekly
capacity of 42S6 tons.
In this connection it may be noted that
number of the furnacemen are complaining
about the stiff price asked for coke. Ii is selling
Tor S2:l0 rate which it has maintained for the
last nve or six months. and as the prices have
been fixed for November, there will not likely
be any change for two or three weeks. Fur
nacCmen argue that they cannot see the pro-
priety of holding up prices on the basis of $50
20 S2l Dig iron. when the price of the latter has
dropped to Sl6j0.
A prominent coke dealer said YESTERDAY
however, mat the price of pig iron had moth
ing TO do with the case Coke has been selling
at the same price for months, without regard
70 the price of pig.
