A Defense OF THE JEWS.
Facts Which Seem to Show That
They Need No Defense.

The Rev. Madison G. Peters, of New
York, has been championtng the Jews
at the expense of Shakespeare and the
anti-Semites. In combating the sense
less race prejudice against the Jews

interesting facts, some of which
are not generally known. He esti-
mates the total number of Jews in the
world at IL 900 900. There are nearly
l, 0OO 900 in the United States, where
they have the same rights as Christ
ians. Russia and Roumanis contain
nearly one-half the present Jewish
race, and in these countries the de-
scendants of Abraham are subject to
of cit zenship.
Mr.. Peters shows that the Jews have
been among the most patriotic of
Americans. In revolutionary times
they gave more than their share of
lives and of money for the cause of
freedom. In the civil war athey took
a conspicuous part. New York alone
diers. During the Spanish American
war more than 1000 furloughs were
granted to Jews who wished to cele-
brste the Jewish holidays at home.
In the arts and professions the Jew
ish nation has q more or less familiar
roll of honor. Heipe, Auerbach, Dis
raeli, Halevy, and Zangwill are we'll
known examples of Jewish talent.
Rachel, the actress, was the daughter
of Jewish peddler. Sarah Bernhardt
and Sonnentbal are of the despised
race. Mr.. Peters also says that Jnnius
Brutus Booth was q Jew. In music
the names of Mendelssohn, Meyerbeer,
Johann Strauss, Sir Arthur
Sullivan. Damrosch, Ruben
stein, Rosenthal, Holman,
and Joachim attest the supremacy of
the Jew in this field. A glance at the
faculties of the leading American col
leges shows fair representation of
Jewish professors. Mr.. Peters cites
Senator Judah p. Benjamin and a
score Of Jewish congressman to show

BADLY INJURED.
Mexican Woman Knocked From the
Track By a Switch Engine.

A Mexican womaa was badly injured
in the Santa Fe yards last evening by
being struck by a car attacked to a
switch engine.
She and female companion were
returning from church and were pass
ing through the yards, which is con-
trary to law. The accident happened
at the link and the women were 20
feet above the regular crossing when
it occurred.
The engine was pushing the box car
and its approach was so noiseless that
the two women with heavy shawls
over their beads did not hear it COM
ing, and one of them was struck on
the head and knocked from the track,
senseless.
The woman's head was badly injur-
ed. She was removed to the hospital
as quickly as possible.
The Mexican woman's condition this
morning was reported to be serious.
Her skull was fractu red and q danger

Mr.. Peters says Shylock is a myth
and a "foul and enduring SANDER" the
product of the anti-Semitic prejudice
that had driven all the Jews out of
England in Shakespeare's time. he
remarks that the Jew is almost q
stranger to the prisons, and states that
the average length of Jewish life is
thirty-seven years, as against twenty
six for Gentiles. With these and similar
statistics the Christian preacher makes
q good exhibit for the Jew. The only
thing he fails to state ia his reason for
this elaborate championship. If his
figures show anything, they show that
the Jew is perfectly able to make his
way in the world without any defense.

camp Miller grew disguised with his
company and started out alone. When
he was away his companions skinned
the dead buck, which Oak had shot,
and stufing it's hide with brush and
snow, hung it up a leading line in the
path which Miller must travel when
he returned to camp.
The men concealed themselves near
by and waited until nearly / o'clock
before Miller returned. He came
within ten rods of the counterfeit deer
before he saw it. Then he put his
Winchester to his shoulder and blazed
away. The smoked rolled off and
showed the deer standing where it was
before he had fired. He walked for
ward a few steps, took careful aim
and fired two shots in succession. At
this time the deer began to move off
down the path, apparently wounded
and about to die. Miller shot again,
and when the smoke had lifted, a white
card, stenciled in black letters moved
up from under the deer's belly and
presented itself to Miller's gaze. The
card contained the following cheerful
