An anti-Semitic has made the
statement that the Jews are par
asites parasitical in their habits
and customs; thriving on the sores
and gan esranansl wound of hnman=-
ity, inflicted BY dire necessity,
poverty and want. That this is
true in a measure, is. beyond quib-
bic or controversy; but that the
Jews differ greatly in general
way from their fellow men, and
that the latter do not stoop to
such paltry methods Of procedure,
is euphuism whose genius is the
offspring of q brilliant and lurid
imagination. The Jew fills his
niche in the structure of modern
civilization with compact exact
ness, analogous to the varigated
flooring Of a mosaic court. The
major portion Of the Jewish race
in the Occident are traders, pro-
prietors of secondhand stores,
pawn and junk shops. The min
ority, opulent, and aggressive in
their wealth, are wholesalers of
clothing, liquors and tobacco. The
secondhand store caters to class
whose Indulgence and poverty Of
purse debar them from patroniz-
ing the larger emporiums of trade;
and the pawn shop that bridge
of sighs-is a necessity; if it were
not. it could not exist; the law Of
supply and demand are propagat-
ing and nourishing its growth.
The rates of interest are exorbitant
no doubt, but tho time is short,
the obligation great, and the col
lateral often insecure. The obli-
CATION sometimes great? Verify
it is even SO. May be you are a
provincial you wake up some fine
morning with the unaccustomed
noises of q metropolis DINING in
your ears, your head feels like the
beef trust; the mucous membrane
anterior to the palate feels like q
lining of papier-mache; you turn
all your pockets inside-out- not a
sou-marquee. Broke completely,
irremediably broke. he only
friend you have in the CITY, of
whom you might obtain loan,
doesn't reach his office till 10 b. M,
and oh! you do want a er-one of
those things so. You walk up to
the glass your face looks an epit-
ONE of q prevention from sleep
society. Your eye rests on the
diamond stud Aunt Marguerite
gave you last Christmas. You
emit long drawn sigh of relief
and satisfaction. Remorse, con-
science stricken? Not a bit of it.
The insistence Of that thirst may
not be gainsaid by any holy re-
menbrance of your progenitors,
your sisters, or your cousins, or.
aunts. Your "uncle" is the only
man who can or will meet the
exigency Of the moment, and he
meets it like a man who under
stands the situation and accom-
modates you accordingly.
And what of those moral sores
and ulcers with which humanity
is permeated: the sloughiDg ulcer
of envy, of vanity, selfshness,
intemperance and epicurism? Mrs.
Park Avenue has a new Easter
hat, sthe loveliest creationin mauve
and argent! It was only two hum
dred, and I really couldn't resist
it you know" That parasitical
modiste and milliner in Paris has
found another victim, and the sore
is vanity. Mrs. Coalbaron over in
the opposite pew has just rustled
herself into position where she
can scan and criticise about every
toilet in her Immediate vicinity.

Crescent Theatre.

The second week of the season at the
Crescent Theatre was opened with every
indication of continued success. There
was the usual Sunday night audience.
with standing room at a premium, and
the manner in which Pete Bakers reyi-
val of Chris and Lena" was received in
dicated that that popular old melo drama
stood as high in public favor as ever.
Chris and Lena' belongs to a period
when mclo dramas were written with
little regard to continuity of plot and an
absolute disregard of probabilities. The
story told merely furnishes an excuse for
the introduction of a lot of really enjoy
able specialties, dependent wholly upon
the individual capabilities Of the actors.
Mr.. Baker. as Chris, did excellent broad
comedy work. and sang number OF
songs in a fine voice. His Germon dia-
lect is particularly realistic, and at no
time unduly exaggerated and his rich
sense of humor is always in evidence.
John Kernel, as Tim Flaherty, ably
seconded Mr. Bakers efforts at fun max
ing. His connection with the story was
seemingly unnecessary and somewhat
far-fetched. but his songs, monologucs
and comedy scenes with Baker were
overlooking with broad humor thst was
thoroughly enjoyable. Miss Bessie Mil
Ter, as Lena, was undoubtedly one Of the
most noteworthy hits of the cast. She
is a handsome girl. and has good Ger
man dialect, sings we'll and dances grace
fully. Her comedy scenes with Baker
constituted the most pleasing features
of the performance. The supporting
cast, while not pretentious, was alto
gether satisfactory, and the old play was
beautifully staged and adequately cos
tuned, and the manner in which it was
received must have been more than flat
tering to the management. Every spe-
cialty was enthusiastically eneored, and
during the last act the audience seemed
to be in one continuous roar Of laughter.

Milk Dealers to be Cautioned Agalnst
 Low-Test Milk
 At the board of health meeting yes terday afternoon the inspection of milk vas discussed and Health Officer Wright said that Inspector Frederlck had taken twelve samples of milk rom wagons and that these samples had been examined by the bacteriologlst' From the examination it was ascertain ed that five of the samples were not up to the standard. The disposition or these cases was then talked oVer the question being as to whether prosecu- tions should be instituted or merely mo- tifcations sent to the milkmen Whose product was found not to come up to the standard.
 The opinion of the members of the board was that since this was the Hrst observance of violation of the law py these milkmen, no prosecutions should be brought, but that the milkmen should be notified that their milk was not up to the test. The opinion was ex- pressed that probably they did not in tend to violate the law. A committee was appointed by President Sulllvan' consisting of pr. Bissell and Dr. Maher' to handle the matter, and 1t IS propa- ble that this committee will summon to appear before it the milkmen who, the tests show, are violating the law
 Health Officer Wright reported that during the past month there had been in the city thirtynine cases Of dlph- theria, twelve cases of typhoid fever and twenty cases of scarlet fever pr Wright recommended that the recently appointed sanitary inspector, MT Con- lin, be assigned to the territory hereto- fore covered by Inspector Jackson, ana that the latter be detailed to investigate concerning typhoid fever cases ana also inspect the garbage collection. The board discussed this matter, but finally decided to take no action at present but it is probable that the city will be lredistricted soon for the sanitary ln- SnectOrS.

Some of the cool-headed men in the audience announced that there was no danger, and in a few minutes quiet was re- stored.
 No injuries were reported, but there would have been if the originator of the trouble had made himself known.
