ROPES OF HUMAN HAIR.


In the thirteenth year OF Neil 0SSo)
Hlrnmatz Rel, high priest " Japan ana
chief digntary of the Temple Ron
gan, which is the principal temple OF the
japanese empire. decided to rebuild
portion of the Hon-gwan-ji temple at
Kioto, and. after the manner of priests
and other religious leaders of all coun-
tries, called upon the faithful to ala IN
the enterprise.
Those to whom he and his subordi-
nate priests ministered, being devout
Buddhlsts, gave of that which they had.
Many gave gold and silver, and others,
which to Americans will seem strange,
gave of the hair from their heads'
Immense quantities Of hair were
given. They We're sent to Miramitz from
eight provinces Of Japan, ana We're
considered the most sacred of all gitts
that were received for the construction
of the temple. 1t being a great saorl-
flee for a follower of Buddhist to part
with his or her hair. Under the az
rection of the Buddhist priests THESE
gifts of hair We're made INTO ropes
ropes that could lift the heaviest TIM
hers that were used in the restoration
of the temple. So great was the agsre-
rate quantity of hair contributed ny
the faithful that fifty-three long lines
Of ropes were made of 1t. These ropes
had they been placed END 20 INA INA
would have measured 9,sI2 feet, anu
their combined weight was 2S'ol'
During the rebuilding of the Hon,
gwan-ji temple many foreigners tried
to get portions of these hair ropes pu,
IL was not until 1890 that the priests
could be prevailed upon to part WIN
any portion of these curious yet sacred
Instruments which they were using II,
the reconstruction Of their temple anu
then only would they part with a DOT
ton of one of these ropes as n GIT 10
the American people.
When the priests of the temple Hong
gwan-ji We're asked for piece or one
of the ropes they refused to part WIN
it, fearing that II would be profaned by
being in the hands of unbelievers, bu'
when Hiramatz Rel was asked Tor ~
and was told that 1t would be received
by the American nation as an especial
gift, and as SUCH kept II in It's great
museum, the Smithsonian Institution
he gave u piece of one OF the ropes 70
the people of the United States The
piece of rope was sent to this country
as quickly as possible after II had beer
prepared for shipment and Is now IN
Washington. How many thousands oil
hairs there are in It no one knows. and
how many millions upon millions OF
hairs there We're in the original 23,bli
pounds of rope no one can guess.

Perhaps the most adventurous and
interesting career that any man of this
generation has had Is that Of Prince
kropotlSin. the Russian revolutionist
and refugee. Born and reared almost
in the household OF the car he
achieved great distinction ms scien-
tific student. Becoming involved In the
revolutionary movements OF Russia
his property was contiscatcd and he
was Imprisoned In the fortress OF 81.
Peter and St. Paul in st. Petersburg.
After long imprisonment he escaped
under most thrilling circumstances,
and continued to preach revolution in
Switzerland and later in France, where
he was again imprisoned. I.atterly he
has resided In England, where he has
written much in favor Of his social
and political theories, Prince Krupot-
kin is now engaged in the preparation
of his "reminiscences, which VIII begin
in an early number of the Atlantic
Monthly. These "reminiscences. II Is
believed will be among the most inter-
esting publications of the sort that
have appeared for many years in any
quarter of the world, both as nara
tive OF an unusual experience and as
an explanation of European politics
nnd social conditions.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH MINISTER.


According to the last census returns
there are 533 Jewish congregations In
the United States. OF these SOl worship
in church edfces specially built and
arranged for the purpose and 232 In
halls and rooms, II may safely he as
s,imed that the greater number OF
those occupying church ediiices employ
a salaried minister; and 1t may Win
equal safety be assumed that nearly
all OF those not occupying uuiiires II
their own, but utilizing rented nan
or room, have not the services Of n
salaried officiating clergyman. We
come to the conclusion. then,th about
three hundred persons occupy pulpits
In the synagogues of the United States.
In many congregations they ordinarily
conduct the service and preach the SER
mon; in others they have the assist
nnce of a cantor. or reader, to conduct
the service: in a few there are two min
listers, in addition to the cantor or
reader.
In all the synagogues OF the United
States. save one, the service Is con
Quoted on the seventh-day sabbath In
this one the service Is held on sunday
morning.-Godey's Magazine.
OF the total number of ministers
about fifty are graduates of the He
brew Union College located Mt Cincin-
natl. which is controlled by the reform
element. while there are three gradu-
ates of the Jewish Theological Semi
nary of New York. which is under ortho-
dox auspices. These institutions are
the only American rabblnic0l schools.

upon ministers educated abroad, and,
In most instances. born abroad.
The graduates of the Hebrew Union

II was not merely question of Ian
guage that led the congregations to
throw aside their German speaking
spiritual heads, The demand was for
"rnen of the people" ms well as scholars.
The old-school rabbs had been too

The Jewish people saw around them
the congregational activity OF their
Christian neighbors, and felt that they
should have the assistance Of their
ministers in doing likewise.
