Ube 3ews OF Cologne.


The Jewish congregation of Cologne which
numbers 10000, can trace it's origin as far back as
the third century There records extant of Jew
ish residents in this ancient Kolona dating back to
that time and it has been claimed that this congre-
cation was the first settlement of Jews in Germany.
However that may be the Cologne Jews an i'm
portant and wealthy body, and continued to thrive
in the possession of full civil rights up the end Of
the tenth century Even late the eleventh, the
Jewish college of Cologne far famed But they
did escape the crueties of the prosecutions which
came towards the end of that century. Indeed they
were almost exterminated and the few who escaped
with their lives expelled. They were, however
permitted to settle again within the city in
paratively short time, but after a residence Of not
more than forty years (about 1372-1424) disputes
arose betwee1 the city fathers and the Archbishop
respecting the taxation of the Jews which
led to their expulsion.
In 1898, the Jews returned and not many years
elapsed before they had grown sufficiently strong to
form themselves into properly organized eongrega-
ton. Through many hardships they have grown
into the prosper congregation which recently in
augurated their second synagogue. And not only
they prosperous, but what is OF far import
ance they held in very high respect by their fell
low-citzens of the Christian faith. In with
all German Jews they hold equal civil rights, but
there is unwrtten esteem, which no laws pur-
chase. lh1S the Cologne Jews nave earned by their
conduct. The Kolnisehe Zeitung accords them "a be-
nevolent spirit in all that concerns the community,
an air of recttude in all their business dealings pa
triotc enthusiasm about all that the Father
land, winning and frank manners in all their social
intercourse. These the characteristics which the
Jews of Cologne have always shown, and these have
for them that esteem from their fellow citizens
which they hold at the present day. And so all
rejoice with them in their joy and share the pride
with which they contemplate their beautiful new
temple"

is Sulu. AS for their number, the
estimate in the Nouveau Dictionnaire

300, 900.

are inhabited chiefly by Visayans

Visayans proper there are about o.

ably much greater.

REASONS for this opinion.

vincing reasons for this opinion. In
view of the statements which have
been repeated day after day for the
last ten months, that the Philippines
support population of 100000 to
100000 persons, it may not seem
that our question is too pointed if we
ask, How is this information derived?
A little scrutiny of figures given in the
foregoing paragraphs will show that
perhaps 5000, 900 or 100000 have
been accounted for. Within limit
ed area, conditions which allow half q
million of people to live by hunting
are not usually such as to allow s.
900, 900 or 5000, 900 more to live by
agriculture and commerce. Why,
then, does it seem probable that the
population of the Philippines is so
dense? How has it been possible to

The news that the Viscountess Deer

| Vlscountess occupies an enviable posi-

twice received by Queen Victoria, and
she has won many friends by her
charming personality. She was first
known to English society as Miss
Virginia Bonynge, the daughter of G.

and was patronized by all of the royal

but the daughter of California

Soon after Bonynge, also miner, met
Mrs. Daniel and persuaded her to get
a divorce from Daniel, which she did,
and married him. Thereafter Virginia
became known as Virginia Bonynge.
The Bonynges prospered and became
rich, and eventually went to London
