DIR. HIRSCH'S LECTURE.
An Eloquent Argument Before Con.
gregation

Chicago March 29-With eloquent
and logical argument, says the Chicago
American, DIR. Emil G. Hirsch attempt
ed this week to prove to his congrega-
ton at Temple Israel, Forty-fourth
street and ST. Lawrence avenue, that
the Jews were not responsible for the
crucifixion of Christ.
Among his arguments DR.. Hirsch
stated that there is no such word as
cruelty in the Jewish language, and
that there was no such punishment in
the Jewish law. Crucifixion was a
Roman death penalty and was never
inflicted by the Jews.
DR.. Hirsch also stated that the trial
of Jesus was in direct violation of every
Jewish law. The Bible states that he
was put to death on the eve of the
Passover festival 1t is one of the most
immovable of Jewish laws that felons
cannot be put to death on the eve or
the day of the Passover, nor upon the
Sabbath day.
Furthermore, DR.. Hirsch said that no
man could be put to death according to
the Jewish law except upon the tes-
timony of two witnesses, and then cap
ital sentence was never passed until
these two witnesses could show that
they had had cognizance of the crime
and had warned the criminal before the
act was committed.
Rabbi Hirsch also said that it was not
a crime among the Jews for any man
to call himself the son of God, as all
the Jews called themselves sons of God.

THE PARK BONDS.
Some Reasons For Voting For the
Proposition Next Tuesday.

The proposition involves an issue of 4
per cent bonds not to exceed SIS, goo the
first year. The annual interest on this
to be provided In the next tax levy
would be only 81, geo, instead of the $1,000
park fund now included in the levy: a
clear saving of $4,000 to the tax payers.
The next year the total interest
charge would be 81 400 or Tin case the
north and east districts of the city
should m eanwhile acquire parks) 81 $780,
either amount being in lieu of the pres
emit 81, 600 and clear saving to present
tax payers of $1,000 or So 600.
The bond issue will ensure immediate
and effective construction work during
the two years and hasten the day when
we may all enjoy every day the delights
of a beautiful group of parks.
The interest will cost a tax payer who
pays SO about two cents the first year
and about three and six-tenths cents
the second year, but out of the general
fund he is saved ten cents each year. by
emitting the present park levy.
From the above example, any tax
payer knowing the amount of his pres
ent tax bill can figure out how many
cents each year it will cost him to Sc
cure some beautiful parks.
In no other direction can such
triAing investment pay such large re-
turn in beauty, pleasure and enhanced
value of property all over the city.

STOLE MIR. HAZEN'S HORSE.
Tt Was Abandoned North of Topeka
and Recovered.

Judge z. T. Hazen's horse and phae-
ton were stolen last night from in front
of Arion hall on lower Kansas avenue
while the judge and his wife were at
tending lodge When he discovered the
loss, the police were at once notified,
and they began a strenuous search,
which ended only when a boy named
Charlie Wise, who lives on farm 31s
miles northeast of town brought the
missing horse in at 10 o'clock this morn
ing Wise heard commotion in his
yard about o'clock this morning, and
upon investigation, found a strange
horse and phaeton tangled in a wire
fence. The horse had been driven so
hard that he was in a lather of sweat,
and Wise unhitched and put him in the
barn, covering him with a blanket.
This morning he drove the horse into
town and called at the police station
while the officers were busy sending out
the description of the rig by telegraph
and telephone all over the country.
Owing to the good care he received at
the hands of Wise, the horse was none
the worse for wear, and the carriage
was only slightly damaged. The party
who stole the horse also stole the clue,
and the police have been unable to To-
cate the thief.

Saturday afternoon that might be
properly termed "a Comedy of Err

better, or at least have put the comedy
on in better shape.

ing figures in the different innings:
