RELIGION OF JESUS
RABBIs DEFINE THEIR
POSITION.
ENTIRELY A NEGATIVE ONE.
JESUS HAS NO PLACE IN JEWISH
THEOLOGY.

His Historical Position and His Part
I'm the Development of Religion "A
Matter of Individual View and
Conviction, ms is Also the AppIi-
cation of the Jewish of Many of
the Beautiful Moral Teaching At
tributed TO Jesus-Dr. Joseph Sill
verman Reelected President.
Philadelphia, July 5.-The topic which
occupied most of the morning session of
the annual conference of American rab-
bis to-day, was one which was brought
before the conference a year ago. and
which caused considerable discussion ct
that time.
The subject was whether or not the
Religion of Jesus Should Be Taught in
the Jewish Theological Schools
Last year a committee consisting of
Rabbis PhiIlipson, Deutsch and Kraus-
kopf, were appointed to consider the mat
ter and report at this years conference.
The following report was submitted to-
Goy:
''Dogmatically speaking, the position of
Judaism in respect of the founder of
Christianity is altogether negative as de-
nying his divinity, though the pivot on
witch Christianity revoves. Jesus of
Nazareth. has no place in Jewish theol-
cgy. The conception of his historical
position, and of his significance in the
development Of religion, is a matter OF
individual view and conviction as is also
the pointing out and application Of the
Jewish nature of many of the beautiful
moral teachings, attributed to Jesus. but
these cannot form part of, nor be in
corporated in any Official statement or
declaration Of Jewish belief"
The report was received with applause
and was unanimously adopted
New Orleans was selected as the place
for the next meeting Of the conference,
which will be held in April, 1902.
The following officers were elected for
the ensuing year;
President-R Rabbi Joseph Silverman OF
New York.
First Vice President-Rabbi Joseph
Krauskopf of Philadelphia.
Second Vice President-Rabbi Samuel
Sale OF st. Louis
Treasurer-Rabbi Charles s. Levi, Pc
oria

A $4,000 COURT HOUSE.
Lake City IL to Have One and Many
other buildings as Wei.

Lake City, Fla, July Sat the regular
meeting of the Board OF County Commits
sioners, held Wednesday OF this week. II
was agreed, by unanimous vote, to erect
a new and modern court house az a cost
not to exceed $4,000.
This question has been agitated all over
the county during the past year. and this
action of the board is merely carrying
out che wishes of the people.
Plans and specifications, together with
notice for contracts, will be asked for at
once, and work will begin just as soon
as these matters can be arranged.
A calculation made shows that in the
neighborhood Of $4,000 will be spent in
this city this summer on buildings. This
will make Lake City the hveliest interior
town in the state, as well as put II far
in the lead In other ways.
At the regular monthly meeting OF the
Board OF Trade here Wednesday afternoon
the president was instructed 10 write the
Railroad Commission in regard to the
new union station, which the citizens here
have been trying to get for the last six
months 1t is understood that the rail-
roads interested are only waiting on an
agreement of plans, and just as soon as
the roads can come together, work will
be commenced.
Prof. II. II. Hume. who has been con-
nected with the Florida Agricultural Col
lege at this place, for some time, has re-
signed to accept a position in the Ala
bama Polytechnic Institute. and left for
that place last Saturday. Prof Hume has
given entire satisfaction here, and has
many friends who regret to see him leave.
The Board Of Public instruction met
this week for the purpose of assigning
teachers for the coming school term. With
a very few exceptions all the teachers
were born and reared in this county.
which speaks something for our school
interests
AS time passes II begins TO be more
apparent that the damage TO crops. by
wet weather, will be much greater than
was at first thought for. The corn crop
is almost an entire failure, while very
little hope is entertained for the cotton.
Some think that the cotton will outgrow
its present setback, and It Is to be hoped
that such will prove to be the case.
All the machinery for the Columbia
Brick Company is now in place, and they
have begun the manufacture OF brick.
This is one Of the largest and strongest
companies of It's kind in this section Of
Florida.

beaten with clubs. The trouble occurred
over an attack on a small white boy by a
negro. A small sized riot followed. Final
ly the negroes were arrested and placed
IN the county Jail.
After midnight an attempt was made to
organize a mob to lynch the prisoners A
crowd gathered at the tunnel on Olive
street. but no one volunteered to lead the
assault on the Jail. If the attack had
been made bloody battle undoubtedly
would have occurred as fifty armed ne
groes were on guard duty around the jail
where their friends were imprisoned

rangements were made to remove them
to Portsmouth jail for safe keeping i'm

mouth.
The removal of Owens and Page, the
negro assailants of the Slaughter boys,
to jail at Portsmouth, has averted a crisis
here. The two men were to-day taken
to train in a closed carriage guarded
by officers, and halted a square from the
depot. officers formed a Gordon about
the negroes as they were led to the train
in irons. Not a dozen people were aware
of the transfer before the train arrived.
Riley and Martin Slaughter, brothers of
the wounded men, had started for the
depot but the train had pulled out a
minute before they arrived. The officers
disarmed the negroes this afternoon and
arrested one who fourished a revolver.
Negroes were congregating and openly
