THAI "COUlRDLN NURRENDER'

Our amiablc. but somewhat careless
and altogether ~lamentably ignorant
evening contemporary has managed to
Absorb a stalwart amount of misinforma-
ton concerning that immigration resolu-
ton adopted 10y the republican league
convention recently held at Cincinnati.
As 1t is one of the missions of the TRrB-
UNE to keep the faulty Leader accurate
ly informed in regard to past and present
political and other events it will give the
history and final disposition of the rcsolu-
ton in question. The resolution as it
was introduced by the committee read
as follows:
Recent events have made more ap.
parent than ever the necessity for eX-
ercising the sovereign right inherent in
our nation as in all others, to use dis
elimination in the admission of foreign.
ers as residents in his country. We
therefore recommend such changes in
our laws AS will effectually prohibit the
immigration of paupers and criminals,
and of peoples so alien from us in their
ideas and habits of thought that they
cannot be assimilated in the body
polite.
That resolution. Ms the Leader says,
lis comprehensive and covers the whole
ground and as the Leader adds: "lt
our laws were framed in accordance with
the advice herein, the riff rail OF
the world would have to stay
out" But and here is where
our evening contemporary exposes
its ignorance the resolution as it ap
pears above rds not oiOpted by the con
v%ention. A Wisconsin delegate "whos'
accent and words told he was Of foreign
birth begged on behalf of many republi
cans in the northwestern states that thu
proposed language restricting immigra
ton be expunged. General Fairchild, o
the same state, supported the appeal o
the foreign born delegate. A hot an'

we quote the published account O
the proceedings Judge Webster move'
to strike out all after the word criminals
and this was done and the resolution
was passed." And because it did strik
out all after the word criminals" tn
TRIBUNE charged the convention mad
IA "cowardly surrender to ignorance AM
expediency." 1t reiterates that charge
The resolution as it stands proposes n

NOT A ssoUrEr wEDD1NG.,, >,

Last evening at the Calcined avenue
church Mr.. John Smith and Minnie Brown
were united in marriage. When the
carriage containing the bride drove up to
the church it passed through double row
of young men dressed in very loud clothes
who occupied themselves in blowing the
most ear-piercing horns. The church bell
added its deep tones to the din, and as the
bride stepped from the carriage on to .the
red carpet salute of sixteen guns (the
number of her years. was fired. During
the progress of the procession down the
aisle, the anvil chorus was vigorously
played by large and competent band of
musicians, and the big organ was let loose.
In addition all the people in the crowded
church stamped their feet and clapped
their hands, when their hands were not
occupied in pelting the floor with gigantic
torpedoes. During the asking and answer
ing of the legal questions a high joint de-
bate was carried on between the men
and women in the church on
the question, Is Marriage a Fail
ure? 1t speaks we'll for the nerve
and determination of the bride and groom
that in spite of the hubbub their responses
were clearly heard, and there could be
no doubt of their willingness to get
married. Just as the minister's part in
the affair ended the high joint debate
was promptly closed, leaving the ques-
ton as unsettled as ever, and all present
united in giving three rousing cheers for
the two who had shown such courage
in practically tackling it. AS the happy
pair entered their carriage 20 leave

The guns were fired again for the brides

out which one.

SOME GOOD ADVICE.

We have a reciprocity treaty with Brazil,
and vary favorable one, too, but it is
plain that the treaty will not make trade
for this country unless the merchants and
manufacturers do their part. This fact is
forcibly stated by United States Minister
Conger, who has written the State depart
ment from Rio de Janeiro that in order to
sell goods in Brazil they must be put in
packages similar to those received from
European countries. He says: "Our peo-
pie can secure the trade which reciprocity
offers them in no other way; but once Sc
cured, acquaintance made and business and
confidential relations established our better
methods may undoubtedly be introduced
with mutual benefit. This will cost our
people some time, patience and expense,
but the returns will be sure, ample and
not long delayed" AS showing the
necessity for conformity to special
methods of packing, Minister Conger
states that nearly all customs duties are
fixed by gross weight of the package, so
that boards, nails and hoops pay the same
duty as the valuable merchandise inside.
Europeans have shown great skill in max
ing the boxes or barrels containing their
merchandise very light, go that the
charge for duties may be as low as posi-
BILE.
People in this vicinity who are after
some of the benefits of the trade with
Brazil will do well to pay attention to
Minister Conger's advice. 1t is evidently

GLASS IN OLD EGYPT,
Blowers who Were Highly Proficient
in the Art.
from Chamber s Journal

From Chamber S Journal
The glass blowers of Thebes We're as great
profcients in their art as, possibly greater
than we are after the lapse of nearly 40
centuries of progress and retrogressiou.
They possessed the art of staining glass,
and they produced this commodity in the
utmost profusion. Rosellini gives an illus
tration of piece of stained glass of con-
siderable taste of design and beauty of
color, in which the color is struck through
the whole virtrihed structure, and there
are instances of the design being equally
struck through pieces of glass half an inch
thick, perfectly incorporated with the
structure, and appearing the same on both
the diverse and the reverse side.
The priests of P'tan at Memphis were
great glassmakers, and says one authority,
mot only had factories for common glass,
out, profting by their discovery ef the
property of oxides of metals, which they
got from India, of varifying different col
ors, conceived the project of initiating all
the precious stones which commerce
brought them from that country"
They were favored by nature, moreover,
in having at hand an unlimited supply of
pure sand and kali; and their glass derivsl
its good quality as well from these sub
stances as from the further fact that in its
preparation they utilized the ashes of ape
culiar genus of kelp that grew in abun-
dance by the Lake Mareotis and the Red
sea. They initiated amethysists and other
precious stones with wonderful dexterity:
and, beside the art of staining, they must
have been aware of the use or the diamond
in cutting it and engraving it. For in the
British museum there is piece of exquis-
itely- stained glass of the time of Thothmos
III. (circa 5000 B. c., skilfuily engraved
with that monarch's emblazonment by the
hand of a master.
The priests were to the people of early
Egypt pretty much what monks like Roger
Bacon were to the early middle ages-they
were the great scholars and exemplars of
the learning of their day, and held the keys
of all the arts then known. But they diff
fered from the monks in this-that, where
as the latter impaired their knowledge on
ly to few, the others taught it broadcast,
and let the people benefit by it. How they
discovered the art is matter concerning
which nothing can be gathered, probably
because the discovery went too far back in
the NATIONAL history They themselves
averred that the great god Phah, whose
servants they were, and who invented the
universe, had taught them tine art; but this
is only tradition, and in conformity with
a habit men have of ascribing simple
luxuries to the direct mediation of the
gods

And that pleasures early vintage has leaked

But my losses and my crosses

With my chances growing thinner,
That the gold within my nature suffers much
from base alloy;
But know that I'm a mellow,
Supplemented, tender fellow,
When romp and play and frolic with my bright

Sometimes of the world SO dreary,
And that moody meditation may too oft my mind

But his merry eyes beguiling
Cnange my humor into smiling

And the golden cascades streaming
From his head upon my bosom, and he sleeps
without annoy,
Then kiss the lips of laughter,
Thinking that the great hereafter
Will be cheerless if l cannot frolic with my baby

The Number of Jews in New York.
From Harper's Weeklyl

The Number of Jews in Now York.
From Harper's Weekly.l
The real history of the Jews of New
York began about half century ago,
when the comparatively small number of
native born and English Hebrews was in
creased by German immigration, which
continued uninterruptedly until 1861,
when it ceased, only to be revived after
the war 1t was then joined by similar
streams from other portions of Europe.
The more recent landslide from Russia,
which is continuing, has more than dou-
bled the Jewish population within ten
years. Some idea of the enormous growth
can best be cleaned from a census of the
Jews in the Seventh, Tenth and Thir-
teenth wards, which was taken in August,
1890. The inspectors reported Ill 500
souls, which were distributed among 49,
s01 families, being an average of 4.S1 per
| family. OF tine whole number, 60, ,257
| were children, 10,672 of whom, including
those under school age, attend schools; T.,
| 1896, or thirty-two per cent, were citizens;
| 15,675 non-citizens; II ,S95 were in New
York two years and under, while the av-
| erage length of time of all in the United
| States was nine and half years. As the
| district embraced in this enumeration. al
| though a crowded section, is but small in
| extent, the entire Jewish podulstion of the
city cannot fall much below two hundred
and twenty-f thousand. The latest re-
port of the New York Charities directory
| gives forty-si incorporated synagogues, of
which number fully one-half are large con-
grsgstions, occupying their own edifces.
| The list is manifestly incomplete, because
| temporary congregations are always or
ganized for the September holidays
| throughout the city, which count thou
sands of worshippers. Perhaps the Jew
ish Day of Atonement bears the most con-
vincing testimony as to the numbers and
varied character of the Jews of New York
The closed stores on Broadway and the av-
enues, the crowds of people going to and
from synagogue, the absence of notabili-
ties from the exchanges, the business
stagnation in retail and wholesale trade,
often on the busiest day of the week, tell
suggestive story. All classes publicly
participate in the fsst-the rich and the
poor, Fifth avenue and Essex street. 1t il
