well as four Jewish writers. A couple of hymns by Jewish authors will serve to show their quality. Here is one on ''The Day of Rest, by Dr. Gottheil:
 Come, O Sabbath day, and bring
 And 10 every troubled breast
 Speak of the divine behest
 Thou shalt rest,
 Earthly Iongings bid retire,
 Quench our passions hurfful fire;
 To the wayward, sin-oppresssd
 Bring thou the divine 6ehest.
 Thou shalt rest,
 Wipe from every cheek the tear,
 Banish care and silence fear;
 Al things working for the best,
 Teaches the divine behest,
 Thou shalt rest. "The One God" is by Penina Noise, a Charleston Jewess, who died some years ago:
 One God, One Lordl One mighty King In unity will Junah sing;

 Thou Sovereign of the Universe.
 Through ages, mid all sects diverse
 The Hebrew child IS taught to praise,
 To lisp thy name and learn thy ways.
 To the alone, when life recedes

 in one redeeming God and guide
 His heeting spirit doth coufde
 Among the ultIa-conservative conoreza- tions, which are composed of Jews from Russia, Hungary and Roumanis, and the large majority are immigrants who have arrived within the past decade, the ser vices are marked by the active participa- ton of the people. To a stranger their loud recital of the prayers, of the drown ing the voice of the readers, would appear strange; but they are accustomed to that kind of worship, in which men, women and children alike join. In the second generation their mode of worship becomes quieter and less eIuberant. It is tribute to the essential piety of this class that, despite the poverty that abOunds among them, not only do they support great number of private teachers for their boys, but maintain many handsome synagogues in the heart of the downtown section of New York. Some of their readers, cant ors or Hazamin, as they are called, possess remarkably fine voices and receive liberal salaries. The fondness for the synagogue among the vast majority amounts to passion; here, at least, they forget the mo- notonous life of the week, with its tolls. privations and jeers, and, repeating the traditional melodies of the liturgy, only realize their nearness to the common fath- CT of mankind.

Crndie Song.

In the garden of Dreamland flower ever grows In form like lily, in hue like a rose, With odor lihe jessamine sprinkled with dew, And its bourgeons and blossoms, my darling, for you.
 Then travel, my baby, to dreamland.
 Slowly rock, cradle, to carry the baby; Steadily, readily rock, and it may be,
 Ere she shall know it, the baby will go,
 Happily smiling, to Dreamland. In the garden of Dreamland in summer is heard, Thrilling there in the moonlight, beautiful bird And its music, my darling, is only for you Then travel, my baby, to Dreamland.
 Slowly rock, cradle, to carry the baby; Steadily, readily rock, and it may be,
 Ere she shall know it, the baby will go,
 Happily smiling, to Dreamland. Tomorrow my darling, refreshed by her rest, With the bird in her hand and the flower on her breast,
 Shall return to her mother and frolc and crow, But tonight on her journey to Dreamland must go.
 Then travel. dear baby, to Dreamland.
 Slowly rock, cradle, to carry the baby; Steadily, readily rock, and it may be,
 Ere she shall know it, the baby will go,
 Happily smiling, to Dreamland.

HEBREW FARMERS.

It has been said until it is generally be- lieved that Hebrews do not make good farmers The fact is, we suppose, that
 when they do farm they show their ability in agriculture as they do in other pur- suits. There will soon be an opportunity in this country to see what kind of farm ing Hebrews can do. Baron Hirsch's col ony of Russian Hebrews near Cape May, New Jersey, will be the object lesson. The trustees of the Hirsch fund purchased
 5000 acres of wooded land, upon which as it is cleared a village is being built and
 farms laid out. The village is to consist at first of 50 neat cot
 tages costing $500 each, shirt factory, in which 25O of the colonists are
 to be employed, a church, school-house
 and, by and by, public library. Sur
 rounding the village are farms of 90 acres
 each, which are to be sold at $5 an acre uncleared, and $15 an acre if cleared and plowed. Only heads of families are to be allowed to purchase these farms or the houses in the village, and terms of pay
 ment are to be made easy enough to enable any thrifty .colonist to own his house or his farm. The colonists m ust beindus- trious and have some knowledge of farm ing or of some trade, and must avoid in, toxicants, none of which will be sold in the colony. There are already some 15C of them at work clearing land, making roads, laying out farms, building houses and the like, and their numbers are in creasing so rapidly that the full number for whom there is room will be on the ground as soon as the houses are built for them. Fifty | houses will be ready for them in 60 dayf l and the shirt factory will be ready also | and almost half the land is so far cleared
 as to make the selection of farms possible. The land is fertile and suitable for market gardens and small fruits, and there art
 already 500 acres sown in rye. It lie'
 along the West Jersey railroad and hal easy access to markets.
 It will be interesting to watch the prog
 ress of this colony. If it is not a success
 it will be the fault of the colonists, wht
 have been most generously dealt with.

sssPOTTING,, AND ,.SPOTTERs. ;,

N0feA AN
 The efforts of Prosecuting Agent Blyden- burgh have sharply called the attention of the community to "spotting" and "spot- ters." Since he began to assist in the en- forcement of the license law he has made things exceedingly lively. And incidental ly, we suppose, he has made some money. Certain men and boys, willing to make some money, have assisted him in ways which are dark and with tricks by no means vain. It was not to be expected that he could secure saints as ''spotters." :" and it has been made evident that he didn't. It was also not to be expected that they could secure evidence by frank and open methods, and they haven't. It was to be expected that those who might be Spotted" would complain, and they have. It was also to be expected that there would be decided difference of opinion in the community concerning the employment of the "spotters" and their ways of "spotting," and there has been. But MT. Blydenburgh has said ''There is the law. I am appointed to see that it is enforced. Law-breaking in this case can not be detected without the employment of detectives, and if these detectives help in the enforcement of the law it will not do to be too squeamish about their methods"
 As things go, we believe MT. Blyden- burgh is, in the main, right in the position he takes. But we also believe that there is place to draw the line in this ''spotting" business. and that it should have been drawn before young "spotters" were sent around to reputable druggists to worm out of them by any convenient tale of sickness or accident some discriminating rum, or gin, or brandy. Of course the law has been cracked, or broken, but if we have been correctly informed concerning some of the devices used to delude the drug gists, we are free to say that 8 druggist who wouldn't fall prey to them would have good deal more head than heart. We do not think that the law-respecting and law-abiding part of the community, heartily in favor of the license law and its enforcement as they are, will approve MT. Blydenburghs indiscriminate raid on the druggists.

 The following is worth the attention of those who have difficulty in finding the keyhole. Put some heated olive oil into a small bottle, drop piece in of phosphorus, cork it up securely and put it in safe place. Any time the cork is removed for @ few seconds and then replaced, power ful light will be given out by the bottle, which last several minutes and be again re- newed at any moment by pulling out the cork. A more convenient device for find ing house or number in a street where there are no lights could scarcely be de- vised, as it will give off its light on the stormiest night, and if it gets out of order can always be got into shape again by aid of a little warmth. The mixture once pre- pared will last for some weeks with but a reasonable amount of care.
 The new winter sport known as man fishing is becoming very popular among anglers at the gymnasium tanks all over the country. The fisherman uses regu- lar outfit, such as is employed in bass-fsh- ing. The fish or swimmer, wears bands of canvass or leather around his head, to the top of which the line is fastened. The fisherman must pull the fish to within six feet of the side of the tank in a stated time, usually thirty minutes, or he loses at the game. Should the swimmer break the line he wins, but he must not touch TT plunge as much as he pleases. It is said to be surprising to see how little line a swimmer of medium size and weight will gain from an expert angler, and small and light man is in great danger of giving out during the struggle, and finding him. self within reach of the net before the time-limit expires.
