archeologiSt claimed him as a German

secret well and IL was only discovered

This singular document was written

The writing was very neat and quite
Hellenic. 1t is dated January 10, 1889,

THE HEBREW SUNDAY.
Disposition ON the Part of the Rabbis to
Change the Day.

NEW YORK, January IA dlstln-
guished rabbi of Chicago, the Rev. Or.
Hirsch, has abandoned the ancient He
brew custom of holding the service OF the
synagogue on the last day of the week,
and has adopted Sunday as the day OF
worship. The Rev. DR.. kleiberg, oil
New Haven, opened his synagogue on
Saturdays. but his congregations are
then small in comparison with those oil
the Sundays on which he delivers lee
lures. lie maintains that the holding
of synagogue services on Sunday Is not
detrimental to Judaism. Rabbis Got
theil and Kohler, of this city, delivered
SUNDAY diScourSes in the Temple Eman-
uel and the synagogue Bethel Tor the
benefit of Hebrews who cannot attend
the Saturday services.
Dr. Jacobs, of the B'Nai Jeshurun,
who is President OF the New York Board
of Hebrew Ministers, is opposed to Sun
day lectures, and says that the orthodox
people could not be induced To abrogate
the law of Moses for keeping the Sab
bath. Dr. Silverman, DR.. kohler and
DR.. MendeZ agree with DIR. Jacobs state
ment, and hold that the Seventh Com
mandment is the cornerstone OF Juda-
ism 1t is fact, however, that many OF
the leading members of orthodox con
gregations here and elsewhere are eX-
tremely in favor OF Sunday lectures and
even Sunday religious services in syna-
gogneS. AT the recent conference be-
tween Hebrew and Christian ministers
in Chicago the Sabbath question was
brought under discussion, but the
rabbiS stood up for the law maintained
by their predecessors since the time of
Moses.
The Rev. DIR. i. MendeS, who is min
lister of the Spanish and Portuguese
synagogue in this city, is seeking TO
bring about a systematic organization
of all the Hebrew congregations. He
says that new era has opened for Ju-
daiSm, which must now act in unison all
over the world. Each congregation
must be let free to govern itself, but all
congregations should be held together
as one body, governed by the supreme
law Of the Bible, and represented by
delegates chosen to a central Hebrew
senate.

Return Home.


ST.. LOUIS, January ll.-When James
Campbell leading st. Louis broker, re-
turned home from Il meeting OF the City
Council, about 10 o'clock last night, he
found his wife laid across the foot Of
the bed with her feet tied to the bed
post, her hands strapped together and Il
silk handkerchief bound tightly across
her mouth. She was unconscious, and
when Mr.. Campbell removed the band
ages she Immediately went into hys-
terics.
When she recovered she said that
about o'clock she went into her dress
ing room and began preparations for re-
tiring. She had hardly commenced
disrobing when she noticed chiifonier
moving queerly. In Il moment Il masked
man appeared from behind the chiffon
Ter. Following this frightful figure
came a second. similar in appearance.
All this time Mrs. Campbell had stood
perfectly still, too frightened to cry out,
but after both men had entered she fled
TO the bed chamber and sank on the
bed, half fainting. The burglars fol-
lowed her and bound her fast to the bed
as she lay.
Then the two men went to the dress
ing case, in the drawers OF which her
Jewel boxes were kept. The boxes were
empty. Then they went to the bureau
where her pocketbook was kept. After
this Mrs. Campbell lost consciousness
and knew no more until after her hus-
hands arrival. The burglars had Sc
cured the pocketbook which contained
S225, but nothing more was missing.
All the time they were in Mrs. Camp
BELLS room, the yardman was working
in the basement of the house and the
cook was entertaining her sweetheart In
the kitchen.
This evening the police arrested
negro named Alex. Russell, former
servant of Mr.. CampbelPs.

ing Governor Laughton this afternoon
received dispatch from the County
commissioners OF Okonogan county
setting forth that on Thursday night
one of the Indians implicated IN the
murder Of Freighter Cole was taken
from iail and lynched. The telegram
also stated that Catholic priest had
warned the settles that indignation ran
hich among the OkonOgan indians, who
had held four councils and IL was likely
they would go on the war path: Inc
officers. in conclusion, asked Tor ooO
stands of arms and ammunition. TWO
hundred stands will be sent. 1t would
NOT be difficult to put down an uprising
among the Okonogans. but II they de.
termine to fight they would send out
couriers and enlist British Columbia
Indians in their cause. The Indians
number $50 aud live on Colville reserva
ton. They have always been peaceiu
and have taken no stock in the Messiah
craze. All the trouble has been caused
by the lynching Of a murderer.

wounded their warriors and captured
their horses. The feeling among them
is very strong, aud the Cheyennes have
proved their loyalty and repeated their
record again which they made at the
Sioux and Nez PerccS wars in 1876 and
1877. These are now in danger from

Very little OF interest has transpired to-

DETECTED LIQUOR ON THE PASTOR
A Congregations Reasons For Changing
the Occupants of Their Pnlpit.

MINNEAPoII>, January ll.-Broad
way Methodist Church circles are al
stirred up. As 4 result of the stir Rev
K. A. Sadiler is no longer in charge Oi
the flock. People connected with the
church state that the reason Tor the
change is the fact that the reverend gen
tleman INDUCED too freely in the cuf
which is prone to incbrate. The So-called
Broadway Church is on Jefferson, neal
Summer street, and is composed Of 4
small congregation that cut loose sev'
eral years ago from the dcstnieS OF the
First Church. At the end OF the last
conference year the church was doing
well under Rev. James Castles, when,
for some reason. he was transferred
and Rev K. \. Sadiler, OF Beatrice,
Neb.. a total stranger 10 Minneapolis,
was put in charge. He is man
OF fine appearance and good
pulpit orator, and soon became a
general favorite. 1t Is claimed that ho
became careless aud could not be de-
pended upon, being frequently noticed
TO be little the worse for wear, aud
some aver that at these times the odor
of liquor was noticed about him. The
matter was brought To the attention OF
the Presiding Elder, John Stafford, who
finally dismissed him and placed Rev.
David Tice in the vacant place. The
friends OF the displaced pastor state
that he used the liquor merely as q
stimulant as he was sufferer from d
nervous trouble and could not do with
out its bracing effect.

PARNELL's GREAT SPEECH.
His Statements, II Facts, Place His Oppos-
ers In u bad Light.

LIMERICK, January ll.-Fully 10000
persons assembled here TO greet Mr..
Parnell, thousands coming from all the
adjoining counties. In response TO al =
dresses, Mr.. Parnell made long
speech. He held that Mr.. Gladstone
had caused the present trouble by issu-
Ing mandatory letter demanding that
the Irish members depose their leader.
Referring TO Mr.. Gladstone's denial OF
the accuracy Of his statements regard
ing the interview at Hawarden, Mr..
Parnell declared that he could now con
firm their truth by 4 letter written
March, lssl. only three months after
the Interview was fresh in his mind.
and even his bitterest enemy could not
say he had any reason TO miSrepresent
or suppress the truth. The letter was
sent to Cecil Rhodes, Premier Of the
Cape OF Good Hope. an adherent Of
the cause Of Home Rule.
Mr.. Parnell here read the letter,
proving that the statement he sent 10
Mr.. Rhodes corresponded with asser-
ti0ns in his manifesto, which Mr.. Glad
stone had contradicted. He then pro-
ceeded tosay that Mr.. Gladstone pointed
TO his only declarations, but ii was diff
cult 10 make anything out of
these, Gladstone possessing a
marvellous faculty OF placing a
different Interpretation on any
statement other than that placed upon
IL by opponents. Mr.. 0'Bricn, TO whom
he (Parnell) had communicated an out
line of the Hawarden conversation, had
remembrance absolutely identical
with his own regarding Mr. Gladstone's
proposal as TO the number OF members
OF Parliament.
Another fact Yet unrevealed, Mr.. Par
nell said, he would now publish. Tween
ty-four hours before his manifesto, he
saw Mr.. Mccarthy, to whom he told
what he intended to do, and gave an
outline OF the statement he was prepar-
ing TO issue as a manifesto. Mr.. McCar-
thy, he had reason to know. placed his
intention before Mr.. Gladstone Kisses.
Mr.. Mccarthy also communicated to
him Mr.. Gladstonc's observation on the
outline OF the manifesto, and there was
no reference whatever made by Mr..
Gladstone against the manifesto on the
ground of breach of contden ce. Cries
