Tien Tsin, June 8.-The diplo-
matic body at Pekin has decided
to ask an audience of the Emperor

JETER'S JAIL BIRDS.
Three of His s'CuIIud Gemmen''
Come to Grief.

Judge Purnell Lifts the Hide of Little Ber-
nard and Others in Open Court For
Trying to Shield Guilty Men.
Raleigh News and Observer.
AS result of the Federal court
just ended here, three of ''Pritch-
ards Pets" have come to grief.
They are now serving sentences
in the common jails of Wake and
Halifax counties for taking money
that did not belong to them while
they were in charge of the postoffices
to which they We're appointed by
President Mckinley, with the con-
sent of Jeter O. Pritchard and upon
the recommendation of George H.

The three defaulters-all negroes
are as follows, with the length Of
sentences they are to serve:
Isrsel D. Harget, postmaster at
Rocky Mount, one year in Wake
county jail.
@. W. Battle, postmaster at Battle
boro, nine months in Halifax Jail.
James M. Pittman, postmaster at
Tillery. one year in Halifax jail.
Hargett was sentenced yesterday
and in delivering the judgment of
the court Judge Purnell had some
timely remarks to make. Among
other things he said:
''It appears from the criminal
docket Of this court that the post
masters of the Second district are
becoming a stencil in the nostrils OF
the people This is the third one

and there IS never 3 .ta.lsse- - .ssss7.sss

want to serve notice now and here
that this is the last one Of these de

could only reach the heights which
the great queen of tragedy, Ra-
chel, trod with such majesty and
power-and Rachel was a Jewess.
Here in Washington l have heard
aspiring politicians when beyond
the reach of the reporters pencil,
sneer at Jews, and yet it was a
Jew that made England's Queen
Empress of India. and it was
Jew who for years was the a1roit
and sagacious chairman Of the na~
tional committee Of one of our
great political parties. The brain
lest man in the Southern Confed-
eracy was Judah P. Benjamin,
Jew; and Chase when managing
our national finances in a peri
lous time, owed much Of his sue
cess to the constant advice Of a
New York Jew. That you never
see a Jew tramp or Jew drunk
ard is a proverb; that you never
see Jew beggar is common
place; that it is a statistical fact
that there are relatively fewer
inmates Of our hospitals, jails and
workhouses furnished by the
Jews than any other race contri-
butes.
"Convert the Jews! Yes, but
meanwhile let US convert many
of our church members to gen>
uine Christianity. Suppress the
Jews! A score Of Russian Cars
eonnot do it. Every people on
earth has tried it and failed.
They have outlived the Plan
tagenets, the dynasties Of France,
CharIemagne, Constantine, the
Caesar the B5a6TyIonfan Kings
and the Egyptian Pnaroa.hs. 1t
was Coos own race for 4 900
years, and the awful persecution
it has survived for 1900 years
more stamps it as race still
bearing some mysterious relation
to the plans Of the Eternal. The
beauty and fidelity Of Jewish
women command my homage,
and among wealthy aud educated
Jews the exquisite refinement OF
Jewessee, their culture and high
bree1ing, blended with sor oi
Oriental grace and dignity, put
them among the most charming
women IN the " GRID.
"Bnt the Jew IS tricky! Is
he? We're you never taken IL by

i "The belief that the Jew i

COTTON CROP TO DATE.

The New Orleans Times-Dem.
ocrat presented on June 1 the as
certainments of numerous COR
respondents on the cotton states
as to the condition of the cotton
crop on June /; and after COM
pairing and collating them care
fully, it arrived at these conclus-
ions:
1. The average increase of
acreage throughout the belt
seems to be about 8 per cent. A
larger area would, undoubtedly,
have been sown, had not the di-
version of labor to sother indus
tries stood in the way.
9. The purchases Of fertilizers
we're very large, but the torren-
tial rains of April effected a very
considerable reduction in this
item.
The forecast of a possible
scarcity Of seed for planting or
replantipg is found to have had
no basis Of fact.
4. The supply of farm animals
has been sufficient for every
purpose.
5. The condition of the plant
varies greatly, in different local
tiles. The outlook IN Texas is, by
all accounts, one Of the worst of
which the records make mention.
Elsewhere the elements have
been less unkind, but the crop is
almost universally backward and
will, therefore, be peculiarly SEN
sitive to the frost. An open win
ter will be necessary in order to
insure a bountiful harvest;a a nor
NAL date of frost would keep the
yield within very moderate dis
mensions; aud early free g would
imply an absolute disaster. Spec
ulations on these points are alb
solute!y idle; time must be left
t4tell its story.
q undd q ddoebi-
edly is, it by no nsaAaaS p fi rs

ing crop. 1t is plain there mag
such-a crop if We Gather conditions
are until November at least favor
able; it is also plain that much of
the crop may be cut off by early
frosts. No one will be able to
accurately estimate the size of the
growing crop before November 1.
In the reports gathered by the
| Times there is nothing
of d1scouraging nature either in
respect to cotton or Q her crops
of the cotton belt.
The Iimes-Democrat received
reports from B'rmingh NJ, Green's
vile, Montgomery, Gadsdep, Tus-
caloosa, Athens, Florence, Hunts
vile, Mobile, Demopolis AMI Eu-
faula. These towns fairly repre-
sent the State, and each and ev.
cry one reports an increase in
acreage and in the use Of fertil-
izers. All report the crop backs
ward, but all, or nearly all, antic-
ipa'e a crop in excess of last
years growth. Tne Montg merry
correspondent considers the month
just ended the best May for cot
ton planting and growing that the
State has ever known. All the
correspondents In this State were
not, however, SO enthusiastic. The
Tuscaloosa correspondent is not
over-confdent, and the Demopolis
correspondent thinks the crop in
his section is not much better than
the crop Of last year was at this
season of the year.

THE JEWS.
A Splendid Tribute to Them by
GeOrga Il. Vending.

The subjoin9d article, written
by George r. Vending for the
New York Herald at its request,
and Published over his signature
in it's issue Of January 31st,
1892, attracted wide attention.
"There Is not a drop of Jewish
blood in my veins. I am not con
nected with the Jews by marriage
or any near or distant kinsman. l
owe no jew dollar and no Jew
owes me. Among all my personal
or intimate friends | can not name
one single jew. L speak from the
vantage ground of absolute inde-
pendence.
"Do you want an aristocracy
of blood and birth? The Jews are
the purest blooded people ard
have the best established descent
in the world. Not Nirabeau in the
French convention nor Patrick
Henry in the House of Burgesses,
nor "Sam" Adams in the old
Colonial days ever said more
thrilling thing than Disraeli said
in the English Commons in reply
to the charge that he was Jew:
sYes, I am a Jew! And when the
ancestors of the right honorable
gentleman were brutal savages in
an unknown land, mine were
priests in the temple.
DO you zegK an al ist5oora6y aaf af
talent? The great church historian,
Neander, was a Jew; Napoleon s
marshals, Soult and Massena, were
Jews; the brilliant and cynical
Heine was a Jew, and but the
worlds roll Of greet soldiers, au-
thors, musicians, painters, pcets,
philosophers and fnanciers, cons
tain more Hebrew names than l
can recite 10 many hours.
care you looking for an aris7
tocracy of wealth? The combined
financial power of Jews in Europe
can prevent the floating Of almost
any national loan which may be
put upon the markets of the
world!
"It is spurious, false Chris
tianity that hates the Jews. The
mystery Of the incarnation founc
expression in the flesh and blood
of Jew. We get our Ten Com.
man2ments-the very foundation
of our clvilization-through th'
Jew. We sing Jewish psalms, ar
uplifted by the passion and poetry
of Jewish prophets, and rely OF
Jewish biographies for the onl,
history we have of Christ. W
get our Pauline theory from
Jew, and we catch our earlies
glimpses of the next world through
the sublime apocalyptic vision o

Mrs. Williamson's millinery opening
is indeed an artistic display of all that
is beautiful and stylish in that line. Her
emporium is tastefully decorated with
palms and cut flowers, while the mir
rors are wreathed with graceful smilax
and gold-eyed marguerites. All around
are groups of lovely hjwers and foliage
awaiting the touch of tasteful fingers,
and then last but not least, there are
the pattern hats. These are indeed
beautiful. One little turban in pastel
shades of heliotrope green and white, is
particularly admired. The soft mate
rial and soft colors make the beautifully
tinted crepe roses at once the most APP
propriate and effective decoration. A
very Frenchy little pattern is of hair.
braid and fancy beading on this, pink
maine, pink and white roses and wings
of tuscan braid are most effectively
used. Mrs. Williamson reports mum
