The Man for the Emergency
We were humping along down to-
ward the Gulf on n trunk line road
less than a year ago. when we stopped
at small station thirteen minutes late
We had been reported as late from the
last, and expected orders here to
change the run. A brief investigation
disclosed the fact that the station
master. who was also the operator. was
drunk. He had felt a chill coming on.
and had downed about pint of redeye

chair. his strength all gone. and his
eyes blinking. and all the reply he
could make TO the conductor was.

The jews stil Wander.

1t is remarkable that Emin Pasha
should be Jew by birth. and one of
his rescuers-Vita Hassen-a jew by
profession. But the presence of these
Jews in Equatorial Africa does not
stand alone. From the time of Abra-
ham downward the migratory instinct
has been dominant in the race. Me-
sopotamia, Canaan, Egypt, Canaan
once more, Assyria, Babylonia, Persia.
Canaan a third time. and then the
world at large-such are the successive
stages of Israers national migrations.
The Jews, indeed, have ever been the
''tribe of the wandering foot" Ia an
age when movement from one country
to another was rare and hazardous
proceeding-in the twelfth century,
to wit-Benjamin of Tudela and Pc
taehia of Ratisbon travelled through a
great part of Europe. Asia and Africa,
and were thereby able to make con-
siderable additions to the worlds
knowledge. The second Benjamin and
Halevy, who explored the Felashas,
may also be mentioned. The existence
of Jews in out-of-the-way corners of
the globe, the Felashas and Beni-Israel
and the Cochin Jews, has only been
made possible by the migratory ten
dency of the race. The four young
men who kept last Yom Kippur in SO
queer, yet touching, fashion in the
wilds of South Africa, are among the
latest illustrations of the tendency. No
doubt the wandering instinct has been
strengthened by prosecutions, but now
that peace and quietness are his in
greater measure, the jew still retains
his prediction for travel.-JeaOiSk
