Great History Of q Remarkable Peo

An Embodiment.
lFrom Wednesdays Daily.)

Rabbi NJ. $. Levy's lecture on "The
Modern Jew" was listened to by an in
terested audience in the Y. NJ. G. A..
hall last evening. The lecturer talked
in a most eloquent manner upon a
subject with which he is thoroughly
familiar. He spoke with deep feeling
that at times rose to a dramatic pitch.
He told how for ages the finger OF
hate and scorn had been pointed at
the race of Judea. He related the
story OF Disraeli, one of the greatest
names of the Jewish roll call. Upon
being tainted with the fact that ne
was born Jew the great Premier ad-
mitted the fact. But" said he, turn
ing to the person who had provoked
the storm, lin centuries past my peo-
pie and my ancestors were kings and
queens while yours were rude barba-
rians."
No race, continued the speaker, can
boast of prouder or nobler lineage
than the modern Jew. And 10 race
has borne the martyrdom that the
Jews have. Can you realize how we
of today feel when we think of the
Jewish bodies that served as torches
because they were Jews? Can you
realize how we feel when we read OF
the French soldier sent into an igno-
minious exile because he was Jew?
The eloquent rabbi then mentioned
the names Of some OF the Jews who
stand out clearly In the roll call Of
fame. Among them were Dlsraeli
Baron Hirsch and wife, the Roths,
childs, the Goldsmiths, and Na.har
Strauss Of New York. The sanctity
purity and chastity OF the Jewish
home were dwelt upon In an impress.

IL had taken some six months and

familiar sight in naval row. Coming
from Seattle now nearly year ago she
was mentioned in most flattering
terms as the opening wedge to the Ho-
nolulu-Seattle traffic. Many people
came with her. Some have not been
able to get away since. The courts
were invoked for damages done sun
dry individuals by Capt. Minor on the
trip down. The City of Columbia was
tied up. Finally judgments were sat
isfed with bonds. Russell Colgroye, a
successful plaintiff against her, was
placated and the City of Columbia
sailed on her return to Seattle. But
the main steam pipe wobbled and Capt.
Minor headed the Columbia for Hilo,
which was finally reached after all
sorts Of fearful experiences. In HilO
harbor the Columbia stuck for many
weeks. The owners wanted the insur-

Capt. Minor, who walked the deck UNI

There has been severe decline in the prom.
Use in the Ohio and Missouri valleys, aud
some decline in California. Insects and

but the main trouble is the lack OF vi.

the root damage OF the severe winter. The
acreage which last fall was reported ut
nearly 3O,OOO,OOO has been reduced by
blowing up and abandonment to 24,51i,-

The spring wheat area is reported ut

than last year. In Minnesota and the
Dakotas it is reported 100000 acres small

and the Pacific coast u little more than
.ffsets this loss. The average condition

The corn acreage is the largest ever
planted. the preliminary report reaching
fully SA,O00,0OO acres. The crop is start
ing rather poorly and too much rain has
interfered with planting, encouraged weed
growth and caused unusual rotting of
seed. The stand is rather ragged, but
there is yet abundant time for recovery.
The oats area is reported at 2S.!G31.0 900
