LEWIS PRAY for American Arms.

The Jews seem to be in hearty
sympathy with the American arms
and they have had many notable
gatherings in Jerusalem in then
synagogue to offer prayers for the
victorious ending of our cause
against Spain.
1t was June 9th of the present
year that the Hebrews from all
over the holy land journeyed to
Jerusalem and in Betjacol, the
largest synagoge there, offered VI
PRAYERS for the American sailors
and soldiers against Spain. Among
the vast audience was the American
Consul, Chief Rabbi of Jerusalem,
who was appointed to express the
sentiments of the thousands OF
Jews gathered there. His remarks
we're ratified by the assembly and
are regarded as an expression OF
the race, The New York Volksad-
vocate, a Jewish paper has Just
translated and published the prayer
which was offered on this occasion
and which reads as follows:
90. eternal God, hear our pray
ers! We, Thy servants, who are
gathered in this holy place, come
today to sing and pray before Thy
sacred altar for our brothers of
America, the only land of liberty,
and whose people are soldiers in the
cause of freedom.
"These enlightened people, O
Father, 90 out to war against a
terrible enemy, not for territorial
aggression, not for conquest; but to
fight for the cause of humanity, to
secure the blessings of liberty for a
down-trodden and oppressed race,
and bring Justice to the world. And
this is what Thou desirest, 0 God,
as it is written in the Scriptures:
I am the God who am doing justice
to the righteous of the land, and
that is what want the people to
do.
"Thou, Immortal One, who
knowest the minds of men, loCB
down from the heavens and behold
these two armies, and favor the
people who, in their hearts, are
prompted by love of justice, anc
who are willing to sacrifice theil
lives to establish freedom. Help
them and send an angel to guide
their ways. In whateYer they C
make them victorious. Lift up the
right hand of their leader and place
a crown of strength upon his head
''In the enemy lift up the hand Of
Justice against these stubborn peo
ple whose hands are CORY with
merciless slaughter Take revenge
for the blood of Thy servants
Down their naughty pride forever
and let all the world know that
Thou art the Judge of nations.
LET those stubborn people come
to you, and beg entrance into Thy
kingdom, for Thou, O God, art
King OF all the world, as Thou arr

Notes AwheeI.

The bicycle lunatics appear to be on
the increase. A large party recently
started from Brooklyn to do 500 miles
in two days. Result, nine tenths of
them were seriously disabled and some
probably permanently injured.
A great deal of sentiment is wasted
on the good old ordinary" and some
riders try to imagine that they had
more fun in the good old days. +"
They never had 1t is all moon
shine; and they would not ride the
old ordinary again for dollar an hour
Coasting races will be popular again
this season. Under proper regula-
tons, coasting is safe enough, but
when amateurs indulge in improvised
coasting, the result is always one or
more damaged wheels, and usually
some broken limbs. The safest place
for the feet is on the pedals.
Professional racing men, who have
been riding in years past for the
makers of certain wheels, are now
very little in demand. The majority
of manufacturers have realized that
their sales are best helped by making
strictly high grade wheel and then
advertising in the newspapers.
Cyclists should never try to pass too
near the head of standing horse.
Some cross animals delight to nip the
arm or clothing of anyone who pass
within reach Again, in passing too
near horse. the animal may be
startled, and in throwing his head
up in fright, ruay catch the cyclist a
blow which may prove disastrous.

The plain silk parasol has no place
in fashion this season except as a sun

prices for their goods, but recently,

farmers of Iowa, Illinois and other
states, SEARS, RoEBUcK Il Co. of Chica-l

and they are shipping them in immense
numbers direct to farmers in every state.
They send an immense Buggy Catalogue

Supreme Court Says the New Deal Il
Against the State Constitution.
Springfield, Ills, April 30.-The su-
preme court late last night filed a de-
cision in the case of William Mooney
VS.. William Hutchinson, county clerk
of Will county, asking for mandamus
compelling him to place Moneys name
on the ballot as q candidate for repre-
sentative from the old senatorial dis
trict, composed of Will county, the new
district being composed of the counties
of Will and DuPage. The supreme
court in his decision holds that the
senatorial apportionment bill passed by
the Republican legislature at the spe-
cial session is unconstitutional. The
court holds that the constitution of Il
linois provides that the state shall be
apportioned after each federal census.
The defense held that the apportion-
ment could therefore be made at any
time, but the supreme court holds that
the fixing by the constitution of a
time and mode for the doing OF such act
was by implication a forbidding of any
other time or mode and prohibition CT
the exercise of the power in any other
way. The decision is by Judge Cart
wright. Judges Wilkin and Carter dis
sent. A peremptory writ Of mandaEus
is ordered issued as asked for
