THE JEWESS

One of the most lovable of social
characters In the history of all times is
the Jewess. No other race of women,
as such, can compare with her. She is
as distinct a type of womanhood now
as she was two thousand years ago.
There is no letting down of her moth
erly instincts, no deterioration of her
femininity. She maintains q robust
distinctive type of her sex. In the ma
jor part Of stage pictures the Jew has
been painted and represented as car
icature-in fact, the stage Jew has been
held-not Judaism. but the Jew-up to
ridicule. In the Widow Goldstein, the
character comedy sketch produced at
the Fourteenth Street theatre. New
York. this rule is not followed-on the
contrary the Widow is the only serious
character IN the comedy, and drawn to
represent all the best qualities and char
:icteristics of her race. She is a lovable
character, charitable. gracious, ever
ready TO lend helping hand to the de-
serving, and not only new stage ere
alton but living truth in action-ex-
emplified by living exponent. With
the exception of the Widow Goldstein,
the characters are all comedy charac-
sers-some Of them farcical The theme
is Wall street and its money excitement,
satirized and farcically exploded. Two
of the characters are built on the lines
Of two great contemporary inanciers,
and there are more genuine laughs in
the Widow Goldstein than in any COM
edy produced in years

was over 500, 10000. Last year the
total value Of this trade amounted to
less than $4S,OOO,OOO. Thus the esti-
mated amount of trade is fixed at $780,
100000, or a falling off in that four
years of four-fifths Of the trade between
Cuba and the United States. This de-
crease in trade Is very noticeable in
the importations Of sugar, molasses and
other products. Reciprocicaily there Is
a falling of in the shipments OF lard,
dairy products, breadstufs, etc. which
have been supplied heretofore in great
quantities by the United States.
The continuance Of the war In Cuba
means still further inrpadS upon Ameri-
can trade and commerce. American
interests in Cuba have greatly suffered
by the war. The United States has am
pie ground for interference for business
reasons only, even il there were no otn-
er considerations in favor Of the step.

HURRAH FOR PAREE.

Americans spend millions in Europe
annually. The great pleasure resorts
of Europe, or some of them at least,
would &c into bankruptcy but for
American spendthrifts. The American
quarter Of Paris is the most exuava-
CANT of all that great capital city. So
it will be only right for America to
make herself numerous at the World 5
Fair there in 1900.
A bill las been reported favorably
in the senate providing for proper rep
resentation of this country at the
French exposition in 1900. The bill &C
cepts the invitation Of the French gov
eminent asking the United States to
participate, and it appropriates 100000
for the expenses Of this governments
representation there.
The French exposition, according to
the promises made for 1t, viii surpass
any worlds fair that has yet been held.
Each one Of these great fairs develops
new schemes for public entertainment
and astonishes mankind by Its display
of the results of inventive genius. The
Columbian exposition far surpassed the
Centennial exposition at Philadelphia,
and it will not be surprising if the
Paris exposition Of 1900 outshines the
Worlds Fair Of 1893.
It is very proper that the United
States should be well represented at
Paris. Aside from the fact that Amer
lean interests are advanced by a rep
resentation commensurate with the
dignity and importance Of the nation.
there is especial reason why this coun-
try should take part in that exposition
with cordiality and enthusiasm. The
two nations are bound together by ties
of ancient friendship, and as the two
great republics of the world it Is fitting
that they should show the progress and
development of civilization under re-
publican institutions. France appropri-
ated million dollars for it's representa-
ton at the Columbian exposition at
Chicago. Germany and Russia have
already appropriated a million dollars
each for their representation at the
Paris exposition, and the United States
cannot afford to be scrimpy in this
matter.

Terrible Experience Of the crew :

terrible Experience OF the Crew Of
Norwegian Vessel.
~ Newport News, Va.,Dec Is. - The
British steamship Kildonia, Capt, Rob-
erts, has arrived in port from Shields.
having on board Capt. H. N. Nymann
and Andreas Michaelsen, Gilbert Ell
Ingsen, Sugure Nilsson, Valdemar
LINER, Juan Villa, Andrew Varges and
Il. karpp, the crew Of the Norwegian
bark Njemmett, which was lost In
mld-ocean Sunday, Dec. IL. .,
Inc crew of the Inflated bark tell a
thrilling tale of their experience. On
Oct. ~ the bark left Champarten, Yu-
catan, Central America, with a cargo
OF logwood for Falmouth, Eng. The
vessel had not been at sea many
days before she sprang aleak. Pumps
were set to work but the flow of water
increased until it became necessary for
all hands to stay at the pumps in or
der to keep the ship afloat. The men
hnally became exhausted, a. signal of
distress was run up and the bark
drifted aimlessly about. Several
steamers were sighted, but none of
them responded to the signals. Can't,
Nymann and his crew had given up in
despair when the Kildoria hove in
sight.
A heavy sea was running and huge
waves We're beating against the sides
of their ship, which had become water
logged and was rapidly going to
pieces. Capt. Roberts saw the flag of
distress and went to the rescue of the
seamen. Going as near to the bark
as could be done with safety, he Or
dered his crew to lower lifeboat. Ten
men volunteered to risk their lives in
order to save their fellow seamen
When they saw the lifeboat coming
toward the bark some of the ship
wrecked sailors were so delighted that
they leaped overheard and swan tc
the little craft. All hands were res
cued, though they lost all their per
sonal effects save what clothing they
wore.

month
Congressman Eddy has recommend

Assistant Secretary Of the Interior
Davis has made a decision in a de-
pendent widows case which rejects

The secretary of the interior has
sustained Mr.. Morris contention and

The committee on rules of the house,
of which Speaker Reed is chairman,
will get together during the holidays
to consider such changes of the house
rules as experience has shown to be
desirable. 1t is not expected that
these will touch any vital points.
