HEBREW AND JEW.
An Authority Raises a New Question
and Then Explains.
Gewish S2ectator.O


The question. What is Judaism2 has
been asked and answered a number of
times We raise a new question We
ask: Who is e, Jew? A person Is not
born d Jew. He is jew by education.
One may be born a Hebrew, just the
same as one may be born a Hindoo-
But by education a Hindoo could be
Jew and a Hindoo could be a Moham-
nledan. or a Mormon. or anything else.
People often say, / can tell d Jew as
quick as I see him. Nothing is more
false. They can tell the Hebrew, but
they can never tell the Jew. One is not
a Jew because born of Jewish parents.
One may be a Hebrew by birth. and
the parents may be good Jews; yet the
child may preach atheism, and, of
course. is no Jew It's the same with
Christians Good Christian parents
might bring up a child who would turn
atheist and, as a matter per Sc, an
atheist is no Christian. The belief in
God as the Supreme Being and the
Creator of all, and the reverence Of
that God. and broad charity toward
all his creatures makes a man a Jew
a good Christian or a good Moham me-
dan This much each faith has in COM
mon with the others. In their peculiar
tiles, which is signified by their several
names they are sovereign and indie
pendent. He is a Jew who holds Gods
word in hand and in heart, who sac
rediy obeys the laws proclaimed from
Mount Sinai. and who reveres the peo-
pie who marched with these laws
through fire and water and all sorts OF
persecution around the earth. proclaim
ing on the way, Jehovah in God, into
the hearts of the civilized nations He
is a Jew. his faith we call Judaism

Rigorous Rule in Future at British
Military College.

London. Aug. 16.-Colonel Gerald c.
Kitson has been appointed governor
and commandant of the military COL
lege at Sandhurst. The recent Incl
dents at the college, when incendiary
fires were set. presumably by the ca
diets, besides the report of the royal
commission, convinced the war office
of the necessity of radical changes in
the college. 1t is hoped that Colonel
Kitson's study of the West Point
academy. while he was military at
tache at the British embassy, will en-
able him to remedy admitted defects.
The mysterious fires at the Sand

continued up to the latter part of June.
