Although Rabbi Reynolds protest could be
made stronger and just effective were it couched
In dispassionate language, willingly give it
space, for two very good reasons. One is to set
ourselves Alright before our Jewish fellow citizens,
such did not read the article provoking the good
rabbits condemnation. The other is to set Rabbi
Reynolds Alright.
In the first place, as to the fact which con-
spired to bring about the horrible slaughter of
Jews at Kishineh, in Russia. To the best of our
recollection, which assumes almost positive belief
the oftener recall it. the Chicago Tribune is re-
sponsibe for the story that the wholesale assas-
sination of the Jews at Kishineff began after the
homicide of a Russian boy by Jew. Again, to
the best of recollection the subject matter was
treated By correspondent of that paper who writes
over the nom de plume of marquis de Fontenoy. y
So much for the good rabbits charge that the
editor concocted "venomous lie' to conceal the
hidden sting of anti-Semtism" There may be no
truth in the story it may be the venomous lie that
the rabbi Indignantly insists it is yet will he avow

Christian ScieN &c.

A COlOTGd man, who worked for
white man who believed in faith cure
Christian Science or whatever it is
called, was an hour or so late report
ing to work one morning His EN-.
ployer, upon inquiry, was told that he
was detained at home on account OF
the illness of his brother. The Chris
tian Scientist ridiculed the idea Of the
brothers illness and said:
Henry, your brother is not sick
He just thinks he is sick. If he win
just use his mind, exercise his will
power, decide that he is not going to
be sick, and will have faith in God, he
will get right up, and you won't have
to use any medicine"
This was all new and strange doc
trine to Henry, but he did not think
it wise to get into any kind of argu
ment with his boss, so he scratched
his head and sail nothing.
The third day after this converse
ton Henry remained away from work
the entire day. When he reported for
work the next morning his employer
said:
We'll, Henry, how is your brother
today? Does he still think he is sick?"
The colored man replied: mo, sir:
we buried him yesterday. I reckon
by this time he thinks he's dead. -

BOBBETT'S ECONOMY.
Went to Much Trouble, but RE Saved
His Nickel.


BobEett was in a desperate hurry
to reach home. He was already late
for dinner, and Mrs. Bobbett had adj
dressed an ultimatum to him on this
subject that very morning. So he
chased Flatbush car a block and a
half and was breathing like a blast
furnace when he caught it.
On the rear platform he handed a
dime to the conductor and received
the customary nickel in return. But
what with the fuster Of his violent
exercise and numbness of his cold
fingers, he dropped the nickel and it
rolled off to the ground.
Now, Bobbett is man of
economical impulses. Not that he is
Unfortunately stingy, but he believes
in having run for his money, as
norsy people say. He would not
mind giving a nickel to a deserving
beggar, but to throw one away in the
street seemed to him wanton waste
Of a pretty good thing. So he jumped
oh-jumped hastily and incon-
siderately, slipped down, tore his
trousers, crushed his hat and raised a
lump on the back Of his head
Twenty minutes later he boarded
the next car and took a seat beside
friend.
Whats the matter, Bobbett?" said
the friend. ''You look as if you'd
teen arguing with the earth"
Bobbett told his story circum-
stantially. But 1 found the nickel,
by gum!" he added, holding the coin
triumphantly aloft. 1--WE spoilt my
clothes and I don't know but I've
cracked my skull, but I've go the
nickel, by crackey! I expect Mrs.
Bobbett'll say things that'll cut like
a saw-edged collar, but by Jimney
Christmas, I saved that nickel, just
the same"
Fare, pease!" said the conductor.
Bobbett gave him the nickel.

FEDERAL LAW MAKERS.

Washington, Jan. 5-When the
senate reconvened few senators were
, absent. Almost Immediately a dis
cussion began regarding the coal
situation. Mr. Lodge prefaced his in
PRODUCTION Of a bill suspending for 80
days the duty on coal with the state
ment that in New England there was
much distress owing to the scarcity
of coal and that unless relief was af-
fOrded at once q number Of factories
would have to shut down. Mr..
CulbersOn followed with a resolution
providing for the removal Of the
duty on anthracite coal and asked
it's immediate consideration. Mr.
Plat of Connecticut objected, saying
! it was his understanding that there
was no duty on anthracite coal. Mr..
Vest took exception to this statement
and said the board Of general ap-
praisers and President Roosevelt had
decided that such a duty is imposed
Another resolution bearing on the sub
ject of coal, introduced by Mr.. Jones
of Arkansas, recited the charge that
there was an illegal combination
among certain railroads to control
the shipment of anthracite coal, and
called on the attorney general for
evidence which it was alleged had
been secured by him. It caused a
lively debate, in which several re
publican senators vigorously resented
what they thought was a reflection
on the attorney general. Mr.. Nelson
of Minnesota addressed the senate
in opposition to the omnibus state
hood bill and favored single state
hood for Oklahoma and Indian ter
ritory.
The house resumed work after
recess of two weeks, but within two
hours the machinery broke down for
lack of a quorum The bill to create
a general staff in the army was up
and an attempt was made to pass it
under suspension Of the rules, which
requires a two-thirds majority. AL
though the members of the minority
Of the military committee endorsed
it, the opposition developed because
of the hurried manner in which it
was proposed to pass the bill and on
division it developed that it did not
command the support of two-thirds
of those present.
A joint resolution was offered by
Representative Parker Of New Jersey
proposing an amendment to the con-
stitution to prohibit polygamy; also
a bill to restore the sale of malt
beverages and light wines to soldiers
on army transports and at post ex-
hanges.
Representative Fitzgerald of New
York introduced a bill making it il
legal for any person engaged in trade
to use for advertising purposes the
name or pictures of any. living per
sons without having first obtained
consent in writing The maximum
penalty is q year in prison and $1,000
fine.

Washington, Jan. 6.-The DAY in
! the senate was eyentful because of
the speech by Senator HOar on his
bill regulating trusts and an attack
by Senator Vest on protected indus
tries through the operation Of the
Dingley law Mr.. Hoar said that
nearly all thoughtful men in this coun-
try are agreed that some legislation,
state or national, ought to be had for
the regulation and control Of what are
called trusts and of large masses of
capital accumulated by corporations
or artificial persons holding property
and conducting business without in
d.vidual liability. There was, he said,
q general feeling Of insecurity and
) alarm about the matter and we were
dealing with a real peril and not with
fancy Or imaginary danger. He
argued that if his bill should become
a law and prove effective no corpora
ton engaging in commerce which is
within the jurisdiction Of congress
can keep it's condition secret. The
bill he said, depends for it's validity
en- the constitutional power Of con-
gress to regulate international and
interstate commerce. Should the bill
net prove effectual it would be easy to
extend it's operation by imposing a
like personal liability on every stock
holder.
Senator Vest used as a text for his
remarks his resolution instructing the
committee on finance to prepare and
report bill removing the duty on
coal. Feeble in the extreme and sup
porting himself on his desk, he called
attention to the condition Of distress
which had arisen as the result of the
shortage in the coal supply. There
was breathless silence in the chamber
as he spoke and every senator on the
floor turned in his direction in order
to catch his words. He said the ques-
ton was no longer a partisan one,
but one of humanity and that we are
not on the verge OF a crisis but actual
ly in it. He charged the republican
senators with being silent and dumb
to the state Of affairs, having only in
mind the party cry stand pat" He
characterized the Dingiey tariff act as
sacred elephant with which moth
ing was to be done. He sarcaetically
remarked that if the whole question
was one Of raising money for the next
presidential campaign that was the
end Of the discussion. Senator Aid
rich took exception to some Of Mr.
Vests statements and the resolution
went over.
