scribe an aching back or any of the ills

authority on this point than that given
by Mr.. Philip Haberling, of COZ Woos-

ardent advocate for Doan's Kidney

OIL WELL
May Save a Pennsylvania Murderer From
Being Hanged.

Special to the Leader.
Pittsburg, Pa, March 29.-An oil
well, it is thought, will save Geo. w.
McMurray, Jr., from the gallows. He
is under sentence to hang April 20 for
the murder of James Rudge at Nobles-
town. His parents being poor, he did
not have the benefit of good counsel.
Some days ago his father, who owns a
small farm near the Washington coun-
ty line, struck oil. The well is good
for $40 or $25 per day and the money is
to be given to prominent attorneys,
who are to bring the young mans
case before the governor, and the board
of pardons in the hope of committing
the sentence to life Imprisonment.

FRANK DANIELS COMIC OPERA,
"The AMEER," at the Auditorium,
Saturday night, March goth, under the
management of l.. M. LUCHS.
The Frank Daniels Comic Opera
Company is coming to town to present
for the first time here Victor Herbert's s
great comic opera success 'The Am
eer," which was last season pro
nounced the greatest success of his
many successes. The Company with
Frank Daniels at the head, will be here
next Saturday night and the engage
ment will afford the only opportunity
for the admirers of Frank Daniels to
see him in this city this season. "The
Ameer" is described as being by all
odds the best comic opera Daniels has
ever had. This term applies, it is said
not to any one part of the opera alone,
but to every part. The cast of prin-
cipals is declared to be stronger, the
chorus better voiced, more numerous
and even prettier; the costumes elabor-
ate and in excellent taste and the seen
ic investiture sumptuous. Victor Her
bert says that the music he composed
for THE Ameer" surpasses anything
else he has ever done. "The score fair
| ly sparkles with melodies and the
choral numbers are ringing" is the way
one critic describes it. Among the
| cast of principals are Helen Redmond
Kate TART, Norma Koop, Rhys Thomas
Will Danforth. Owen Westford and
VIM. Corliss. The scene Of ''The Am
eer" being laid in far away India GER
tainly affords an opportunity for scenic
and costume pictures of Oriental rich
ness! and Manager La Shelle is credit
ed with having embraced the oppor'
tunity to great advantage.

THE Jews In GREECE.
FulI Rights ms Citizens Are Denied
the Race I'm King Georges
RcnIm

Whatever may have been the con-
nections between Greeks and Jews
in the past, the points of contact
between them at the present day are
comparatively few, for the Jewish
population in the kingdom of King
George appears to be not only small,
but stationary. Its numbers, which
in 1891 are given at 5,702, are re-
turned in 1901 as $500, or n net in
crease of eight in ten years. Small
ness of numbers need not affect the
natural interest which English Jews
feel in their Greek brethren, and par
ticularly English Jews, for it was
largely owing to the efforts of the
British government that Greece be-
came an independent kingdom. More
over, the fact that the Ionian islands
were direct gift from this country
to Greece intensifies the interest or
English Jews in the fate Of theiT
brethren in that part of the Greek
Kingdom. 1t is true that the hand
full of Greek Jews have no legal or
state made disabilities like the Jews
of Russia and Roumania, says the
Jewish Messenger. In principle the
fullest equality obtains. But in prac-
tice. even so ardent an apologist for
the Greek government as DR. Bclleli
has to admit that it would be pre-
posterous" to argue that "thc Jews
actually enjoy in Greece full rights"
When the premier of country
publicly declares that all Jews ought
to be put back 80 years it is idle to
contend that the Jews OF that coun-
try are cmancipated in fact. what
ever they may be in name. The truth
OF the matter seems to be that in
cmancipating the Jews the Greek au-
thortics, like the authorities in
France. were considerably in ad-
vance of the sentiment of the people
as whole. This popular backward
ness found brutal expression in the
ritual cNcesses some years ago-cX-
cesses which drove Jews away from
the Ionian islands, where they had
once enjoyed the fullest liberty UNI
der the British and whose effects
have even now not entirely vanished.
1t seems as though the long enslavc-
ment of n people tends to crush out
its ideas of liberty and to make of it
tyrant when it in turn becomes
free. The case of Roumania, per-
haps, is much more striking Illus
tration of this than that of Greece.
Still, the decorations conferred by
the Greek government on several
Jews may betoken the development
of better feeling toward the Jews.
In the ordinary course of things it
would only be natural to anticipate
the evolution of the ideas of peo-
pie like the Greeks in the direction
of liberty of thought and freedom of
conscience

WHY 1T is THE WHITE HOUSE.
How the Name of the Presidents
Mansion nt Washington
Originated.

The question is often asked why The
presidents mansion at Washington is
called the white house. 1t has been so
called for years and years, and now no
one thinks of using any other name, al
though executive mansion is the Off
eial term. The term white house is a
reminder of the second war with Eng
land. August "a, 1914, the British
army captured Washington and
burned the public buildings, the presi-
dents mansion being among those ,
suffer. 1t was damaged to some ex-
tent, and to hide the fire stains was
painted white, and white it has been
painted every year or two since. The
home of Washington's mother was
called white house, and this may have
suggested the name, but the fact that
the mansion was assiduously painted
white after the war of 1912 doubtless
brought the term into popular use.

oSTRACISED FOR HUMANITY.


As a penalty for being too humane
prince Alphonse, the nephew OF the
regent of Bavaria, has been given
the "Blue Letter" In American slang
Sernacular this might be interpreted
to mean that he will hereafter re-
ceive the marble heart" in select
official circles. The "Blue Letter"
means official degradation. He is, it
seems. too humane for his uncle and
the military commanders, and he has
been called upon to suffer for his hui
manity.
He was asked to resign from the
Bavarian army for no other reason
than that he was too gentle and easy
going with those under his command.
He is not severe enough to please
the military, and the mistake he made
was to manifest too much considera-
tion for the horses under his charge.
1t was during the last maneuverS.
On reaching a steep and stony de-
scent, Prince AIphonse ordered the
men to dismOunt, so that the horses
might be spared 1t is said that the
order completely upset the plan of
action. Popular feeling is intense
against the authorities who have
brought about the princes dismissal,
for he has always been popular with
tn" subjects of his uncle. 1t is be-
lieyed to be the first time "A Bayarian
prince has received the Blue Letter."

RISEN FROM IT'S RUINS.
weston from the Terrible Wrecks
ing ID Sustained.

Perhaps no more remarkable in
stance of rapid recovery from almost
total wreck was ever known than
that of Galveston, destroyed in the
terrible flood of last September. Its
dwelling houses had been swept
away, and many of its most noted
substantial commercial buildings
were injured beyond repair. Seven
teen million dollars worth of it's
property was wasted at stroke, and
5000 of its inhabitants were slain.
Yet the hapless island town found
courage after the storm, and de-
termined to live says Youths Com
panon.
In seven days the railway bridge to
the mainland, broken by the furious
sea, was repaired and open to travel,
and less than six months after the
disaster not only all the railway
tracks but the wharyes, elevators
and warehouses had been rebuilt,
larger and better and more in num-
Der than before; and the surviving
islanders are housed in more than a
thousand comfortable dwellings.
The terrible relies of the Septem-
ber tragedy have been cleared away,
and industry. trade and hopeful ac-
tivity of every kind are once more
making busy days. \ nations sym
pathy and contributions have helped
the people, but no less the brave,
swift rally of this stricken city is a
notable example of American re-
