This great man died in 1866, was buried before the
gate of Evira, in Grenada, and magnificent monu-
ment erected to his memory. His picture can be
seen at Malaga 1t would be hard for anyone to de-
tect his Jewish lineage.
Abu Hussan Joseph Nagrela was worthy success
of the honors and titles of his father Even all the
Arab poets sang his praises:
Greet his countenance, for in it thou wilt find
happiness and hope
He resembled very much his father
Solomon Ibn Gabirol a great poet, whose
poems, full of fire, lament the lot of Israel Where
fore does the slave rule the of the prince
My exile has already lasted thous and years Where
is the high priest who will discover to the end of
it all? he sang This poet died in the latter part of
the seventeenth century and his picture hangs in the
gallery of a Spanish nobeman in Valencia 1t is
lated that Arab feow-poet slew him out of envy,
because of Gabrols mastery power of song.
Jehuda ben Samuel Haev whose picture be
at Toledo, true poet, and if Spain could
be brought to lay aside her preudces and reckon her
great men by their deeds and writings Halev1 would
occupy foremost place in her Pantheon. He was
also great physician and was devout Jew. Haevis
great Songs Of Zion will always be cherished by the
Jewish people. Heooked very much like the grandees
of Spain.
In the private gallery of the Pope of Rome hangs
the picture of Isaac ben Mordecai the Jewish physi
clan to the Pope in 1879. With his clean-shaven face
and dgnifed bearing, it would be task indeed to
discover his Jewish resemblance. So also it was with
the celebrated Jewish surgeon Hillel ben Samuel,
whose picture some time ago could be at
Verona.
There hangs in the Ma ional Assembly at Anster-
dam picture of Isaac de Costa Atlas, who its
president in the latter part of the seventeenth

StuyveSant of the early Ditch govern of New
Amsterdam

author whose picture hung at one time in gallery

A BOY RULER, TEN YEARS OLD, GOVERNS
MILLIONS.

The youngest ruler in the world is the Maharaja
of Mysore, who is ten years Old OF course, there is
little Aphonso of Spain, but he is not exactly ruler,
and the affairs of the Spanards managed by wise
old councillors and clever ministers Of state. The
Maharaja of Mysore rules his people, and is just
much of potentate the Car of Russia Emperor
Fl ederck of Germany The boy ruler of India very
bright, and knows all about European affairs as well
the doings of his own countrymen.
The young Maharaja is the legitimate successor
of his father, who known all over India as the
Model Prince The full of the junior ruler is
Krismaraja, and his titles enough to make your
jaws crack in pronouncng them Here they are:
Maharaja Krismaraja Wagayar Bahadur His
education has been entrusted to English well as
native tutors. Mysore, as everybody knows is a
native state surrounded by British territory In size
it is little smaller than Scotland, although its popu
1aton larger. 1t has had very troubled history
great ruling house succeeded another in quick
cession In the century the notorious Hal
dar took possession of the throne, but his dynasty
short lived ending in the de eat and death of his
son. Tpu, at Seringapatam in 1873 Then repre-
tentative of the ancient Hndoo line placed on the
throne, but he proved absolutely feeble that the
British government had to displace him. assuming
authority in his name some sixty five years ago He
died in 1868, leaving adopted son, Chikka krishna
Arrsu who, like the present Prince, was minor at
the time and during the whole pupage the state was
administered by British office The full sovereignty
was handed to him in 1881.
The young man now in charge of the land has been
taught that he is not the most important parsonage
alive and this fact together with his early training
ought to m axe good aud sensible ruler, well as
the Youngest real monarch in the wide worl.-JeWsh

SAVED FROM PRISON.
Anthony Williams to Stay Six
Months in the County Jail.

Anthony Williams, the youth who
on Tuesday last entered plea of guilty
to a charge of burglary, was yesterday
morning permitted by Judge Hart to
withdraw his plea and enter one OF
petit larceny. He was then sentenced
to six months in the County Jail.
Judge Hart said that, inasmuch as
Williams attorney had asserted in open
court few days ago that County De-
tective Max P. Fisher had intimidated
the boy into entering a plea of guilty,
he had Williams brought to his cham
bers and examined The defendant
stated that the officer had in no way
sought to influence or intimidate him.
On the contrary, it had come out that
Fisher had even shown disposition
to save the youth from going to the
State Prison.
The court further stated that the de-
fendant, being a few days over Is years
of age, could not be sent to the School
of Industry at lone, as requested by
District Attorney Ryan. Therefore, un-
der the law, and the defendants plea,
there was no alternative for the court
but to send him to the penitentiary.
Judge Hart, who believes in reforma
ton rather than in punishment, when
ever reformation seems possible, said
that We're the defendant sent either TO
Folsom or San Quentin he would be
thrown into the society of hardened
and confirmed criminals, and Williams
being easily influenced, reformation
could not be achieved in that way.
He, therefore, requested District At
torney Ryan to have the plea of guilty
to burglary withdrawn, and this being
done, the youth promptly pleaded guilty
TO petit larceny, and was sent to the
County Jail for six months

PUBLIC HAVE RIGHTS THERE.
CAPITOL PARK DRIVEWAYS
ARE NOT PRIVATE.
Justice Davis Gives a Little Advice
to Special Watchmau
Merrill.

W. H. Merrill, the Capitol Park po-
licenan who on Friday last elected R..
z. Armstrong and Frank Featherstone
from Capitol Park, and in doing so beat
them with his cane and threatened
them with his revolver, stood up in
the Police Court yesterday morning
and was sentenced to pay a fine of SO
in each case.
Merrill, as readers of the Record Un-
ion know, was found guilty on both
counts on Friday afternoon, and at that
time his attorneys intimated that an
appeal would be taken to the Superior
Court
After sentence had been pronounced
Judge e. a. Bridgeford. who with E.
d. McCabe looked after Merrill's inter-
ests. moved for a new trial on the
grounds that the court had erred in ex-
Guiding points of law presented by the
defense; that the complaint on which
the case had been tried was insufficient,
and that the verdict had been contrary
to the law and evidence. The motion
was denied.
Next Judge Bridgeford moved for an
arrest of judgment on the ground that
the complaint was defective. in that
it was uncertain, indefinite and am
biguous. This Yves denied also.
Justice Davis, in pronouncing sem
tence. said Merrill had been properly
found guilty OF battery, but that it
was not his desire to infiict a heavy
penalty. Merrils only contention had
been that pedestrians or bicyclists had
no right to go upon the driveways of
Capitol Park. The Justice informed
Merrill that people have precisely (sye
same right to drive, walk or pedal on
the driveways in the park as they have
to move through any street in the city,
and that they have precisely the same
privileges on byways and walks in the
park as on any sidewalks in the city.
Merrill, Justice Davis said, had prob
ably conceived that he had a right to
stop and eject bicyclists but that it
would be well for him to disabuse him
self of such an idea.
In the opinion of the court justice did
not demand a heavy penalty. Merrill
had already been punished by the en-
barrassment and humiliation follow
ing his arrest and conviction. He was
socially well connected, and had been
punished severely. In conclusion, the
Justice imposed a fine of SO in each
case.
MerTills attorneys filed a notice of
appeal, and the former was admitted
to bail in the sum of $50.

RATHER THIN.
An Alleged Plot to Get Charles
Heisen's Money

About two weeks ago Charles Heisen
who conducts a brokerage business near
Seventh and / streets. was informed
that four men had laid plans to enter
his office at the dinner hour, crack the
till and safe and walk off with the con-
tents. An attempt had been made by
the gang to get Mr.. Heisen's informant
to take a hand in the business, but
instead of doing so he gave the job
away and furnished the names of the
parties who contemplated making the
raid
Heisen informed officer Logue as to
what was expected, and Logue man.
aged to be in the vicinity about the
noon hour, his uniform serving as a
warning to the gang that their little
game had been given away
Heisen had Deputy Sheriff Alter keep
watch over the inside of the premises
at night, armed with a shotgun. but
according to the statement of Chief of
Police Drew, who knew nothing of the
facts until yesterday, nobody was en-
danSered by that process, except Officer
George K. Naghel whose beat took in
the premises of Heisen, and who habit
ually tried the door while making his
rounds
When Chief Drew learned the facts
in the case from Heisen he called in
Officer Logue and asked why he had
not reported the matter at headquar-
ters. Logue. according to Chief Drew
replied that he had believed all along
that there was nothing in it, and had
waited for developments before making
a report. Neither Captain Fisher nor
any other member of the police force
knew anything about the affair.
AT present there seems to be no
chance to have the robbery pulled off
provided one was ever contemplated
The plot" to get some of Heisen' s
money doubtless originated in the fer
tile brain Of the fellow who gave it
away"
