A SAD CASE.

A Young Rabbi Becomes Suddenly Insane On
His Bridal Tour.
Rev. DR.. Samuel K. Lewis was transferred
last Monday from Bellevue Hospital to the
Bloomingdale Insane Asylum, New York. He
had suddenly shown signs of dementia while
on his wedding trip, and his pretty bride had
hurried him back to New York to have him
treated by competent specialists
Mrs. Lewis herself was nearly wild with az
element when her honeymoon came to an
abrupt end. DR.. Lewis was not at all violent
but he had the delusion that he was being per
secuted and that conspiracy had been formed
to kill him. He had jumped to his feet, while
passing through Virginia on the train, and
shrieked, "You only married me for nv
money. I will not stay with you another
hour"
Mrs. Lewis tearfully listened to his rawlings.
unable to understand at first the change in his
manner. When told by physicians that his
mind had given way she Immediately notified
her relatives that she was coming back to them
Dr.. Lewis marriage occurred December 10Th.
The bride was Miss Clara IRA, and the cere-
mony was performed at the residence of Louis
Schachne, No. 1853 east Ninety fourth street,
New York. The couple started for the South
the following morning, intending to take
brief trip before going to Charleston, 8. c.,
where Rabbi Lewis was to assume control of a
congregation to which he had only recently
been elected.
lsince the above was received we are glad to
note from the daily press that Rabbi Lewis,
'rouble is only temporary and that short stav
n Bloomingdale is expected to effect perms-
,ent cure.

Revolution Averted in Belgium.

Labor has won a great victory in Belgium
and revolution has been averted. The
Belgium parliament has yielded to the de-
mand for manhood suffrage. and in future
the laboring man who pays no taxes will
have a voice in the government
The agitation In behalf of universal suf-
frage began two years ago and became more
aggressive as the depression in all kinds of
business throughout Europe became greater.
The laboring population Of Belgium have
felt this depression keenly. Actual want
has been in thousands of homes. Belgium
is about the most thickly populated country
in Europe. Her people are very thrifty. A
very large proportion OF them are employed
in mines and factories. Their earnings are
small, being barely sufficient to afford them
the necessaries of life.
Until the adoption of universal suffrage
on Monday none except those who paid
taxes to the amount of IS could vote.
Under the property qualification there
were only about 100000 voters. Universal
suffrage gives the ballot TO fully !, 100000.
The demand for universal suffrage was
resisted by the shopkeepers and the property
Of the suffrage. that would have increased
the number of the voters to 225. 900 or 250,-
900, was proposed. 1t was thought that
| labor would be satisfied with that conces.
sion, but when strikes became general and
revolution that promised to involve a
large part Of Europe in war became immi-
nent. parliament yielded to the demand for
universal suffrage. Had the demand been
resisted and revolution broken out, Ger
many would, doubtless, have gone to the
assistance of the king. That would have
opened the way for French Interference,
and Belgium, in all probability, would have
become bloody battle ground.
The concession that has been made to
labor is not wholly satisfactory. 1t COM
bines plural voting with universal suffrage,
but it IS sufficient to put a stop to the
threatened general insurrection. The agi-
tation will be continued, however, with the
purpose of securing universal suffrage. pure
and simple. Steadily but surely the will of
kings is yielding to the will of the people.

The Heart of a Tree.

H, c. BUnner in NeW York Advertfser,
What does he plant who plants tree?
He plants the friend of sun and sky;
He plants the flag of breezes free;
The shaft OF beauty, towering high;
he plants home to heaven anigh
For song and mother-croon of bird
In hushed and happy twilight heard
The treble of heavens harmony
These things he plants who plants tree,
What does he plant who plants tree?
He plants cool shade aud tender rain.
And seed and bud of days to be,
And years that fade and flush again;
He plants the glory Of the plain;
He plants the forests heritage;
The harvest OF a coming age;
The JOY that unborn eyes shall see
These things he plants who plants a tree.
What does he plant who plants a tree?
He plants, in sap and leaf and wood,
In love of home and loyalty
And far-cast thought of civic good
His blessing on the neighborhood
Who in the hollow OF his hand
Holds all the growth Of all our land
A nations growth from sea to sea
Stirs in his heart who plants a tree.

A Louisiana justice Of the peace claims
to have invented an apparatus that will
revolutionize rice planting. A description
of it says: The invention is a contrivance
which will lift water from a we'll or stream
to any hight, regardless Of atmospheric
pressure. The flow of water can be made
to keep up continually. BY placing it in
common well the well can be made artesian.
The machine placed in a river will move
the water upward without stopping. The
eleyating of the water is caused by series
of vacuums, which the water itself creates A."
