JEWISH PETITION.
Must be Settled Before the nranchuri.n
 Mattor.


 Washington, July 9.-The president has decided that the matter of the Jewish petition must be finally dis posed of before any further effort is1 made here to compose the issues aris- ing out of the Manchnrian situation. Therefore it is now said that nothing is" likely to be done in regard to Man churia until next September, by which time, according to the last Russian en- gagement, the execution of Manchuria by Russian troops, save railroad guards, should be complete. It is un-5 derstood that the Russian government has set up as one reason for not sane tioning the opening of new ports in Manchuria, tn necessity of allowing her first to complete the evacuation of Manchuria and although the reasoning is rather obscure on that point, it is understood that our.government is will-s ing to wait until September before making the next move.

Som ething Of It's Uses and the wav

Cinnamon is in itself unQuestionablv
the most delicious of all spices, being
Sugary as well as aromatic and pun
gent Many thousands of pounds are
consumed annually in every civilized
country, and it is also highly appreci-
ated by even semicivilized and bar
Darous nations where culinary art and
medicine have as yet made little prog
reSS.
Its uses in sweet cookery are innu-
merable. There are very few fruits
which are not improved in preserves,
pickles and pastries by the addition of
more or less of this delicate bark. 1t is
an essential tlavoring in all spice cakes
and in many varieties Of pies and pud
d1ngs. In chocolate. confectionery.
candies, cordials and liqueurs cinnamon
contributes an incompatible flavor.
Its medicinal value is well known
as an antispasmodic and carminative
and tonic. Its use is recommended as
a preventive and remedy for cholera,

The discovery of the valuable prop
critics of cinnamon antedates recorded
history, as it Is mentioned in the Bible,
in the book of Exodus, as one of the
ingredients Of the sacred oil with
which the priests were anointed. So
highly was the sweet bark esteemed

choice substance by Greek writer's pre-

that the Arab traders, who first

with special tales of mystery and
magic.
The cinnamon tree is a member OF
the laurel family, which in the tropics
is represented by large number of
aromatic and medicinal trees and
shrubs.
There are several closely allied Gin
namon trees. but the finest bark is pro-
cured from species native to the is
