The Jewish South. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1893-1899, 1897-02-05

No JEW need make any apologies
for his people. The Jews are and al
ways have been great people.
They have blessed the world by Civ
ing it a sacred literature which has
done more than all other literature
toward elevating and refining the
Gentiles. They have shown man.
kind how to bear centuries of wick
ed persecution almost without a
murmur, and have prospered where
their envious neighbors have starv-
ed. When the Jew begins to apollo
gize for his race he does it an injus-
tice. He invites attack and stirs
old prGudices against his people.
The Jew is admired for what he is,
not for what he says. When he be-
gins to throw bouquets at himself
he loses ground every time. How
ever, this is true Of any people. It
is to be hoped that the Jew will
soon be lost in the American citizen.
No more Jew, no more Gentle, but
fellow-citizen.-Detroit Tribune.

An Old Time Punishment Which Has

The whipping post has becnre-established
IN the Missouri state penitentiary after
four wears of disuse. Before that IL had
been in use so long that no one remembers
when II was first established 1t is simply
one of the pillars of the stairway to the
dark cell room When a prisoner is TO be
whipped, he is handcuffed and fastened
with chains to the pillar, stripped, and the
whip so applied that for days he remem-
bers it because of the pain.
Under the present management Deputy
Warden Tom bradbury does the whipping

A few days ago a young negro reiuseu

TIMBER PRESERVATION.
Free Access of Air to Woodwork Neees

Free Access of Air to Woodwork Neces-
sary to Prevent Decay.
Probably no better illustration can be
had, even at tho present time, of the
great importance Of free access Of air TO
woodwork as a means of protection
against premature decay than the results
Of an investigation, conducted a few
years ago, into the causes of an accident
in an expensive apartment house in one
of the principal cities of the United
States, in which portion of one OF the
upper floors gave way, and, in falling,
carried along corresponding sections OF
the several floors below, landing the
whole mass OF wreclage in the cellar,
1t was found that fortunately unusual
system Of floor construction had been
adopted in the building in question, the
spaces between the wooden beams hay
ing been filled with ashes, presumably
with the view of making Il comparative
ly tireproof structure.
Whatever its merits in this respect
may have been, there was no question
| whatever that the mixture OF ashes
formed most efficient barrier against

any moisture that was inherently IL

them through the thing above had littl'
opportunity Of being carried away b,
any ventilating air currents. The beam
simply had to rot, and that compare
lively quickly. In the subsequent worI
of reconstruction Of the floors, however
good care was taken that they shoul
not again suffer in the same way
Mill architects generally appreciat
the preserving influence Of free air eli
culation SO thoroughly that they care

suspicion Of imperfect seasoning. Whel
any moisture is still present i'll the woo

non Embodies the Form of Demon
Captain Trevitt w. Okey of Los An
geles, Cal, for many years stationed i'll
Arizona and New Mexico with the reg
ular army, told about the myths and
superstitions of the Zupi Indians to u
group of friends at Broadway hotel
one evening.
"In the Zuni mind" said he, "the
rainbow has ever been deified animal,
having the attributes Of a human being
and also the body and some of the func-
tions of measuring worm Obviously
the striped back and arched attitude OF
the measuring worm, its sudden appear
ance and disappearance among the leaves
Of the plants which it inhabits, are the
analogies upon which this personifica-
ton is based. AS the measuring worm
consumes tho heritage OF the plants anc
causes them to dry mp, so the rainbow,
which appears only after the ram, Is
supposed by the simple minded Indian
to cause cessation of rain, and conse-
ouently to be the originator Of droughts,
under the influence OF which plants
wither away, as they do under the raw
ages of the measuring worms
sit will be seen that the visible phe-
nomenon called the rainbow gets by anal
ogy the personality Of the measuring
worm. while from the worm i'll turn the
rainbow gets its function as god VI
this the cessation of the rain ON the APP
pearance Of the rainbow is adduced az
proof. The fading of the flowers is at
tributed to the rainbow, which, consum
ing their imperceptible existences, thus
| derives his brilliant coloring, just as i
is believed that the measuring worn
gets his green, yellow and red stripe
from the leaves and flowers which !
devours.
