An Annual Revival.
, the New York Tribune.


According to figures furnished by wel-in-
formed statisticians, there are about 100000
Jews in New York. They play an impor-
tant part in the business of the metropolis /;
they are well represented in political, scien-
tihc, educational and charitable circles, and
by virtue of an overwhelming majority they
control the business of the densely popu-
lated East Side district. This great section
OF our population. composed of immigrants
from Germany, Russia and Austria and
their descendants, is divided into two
classes-Orthodox and Reformed The Or
thodox Jews adhere to the ancient forms
and ceremonies. The others. as the name
their observance of festivals in keeping
with the age and the country in which
they live. 1t has been said of these two
grand divisions in American Judaism that
they should really be known as young
and old because, no matter how faith
fully the father observes the ancient
usages, the son usually deserts and joins
the reform party.
The strangest feature about these people
is that, despite their loyalty to their re-
ligion and the tenacity with which they
little interest in the ordinary religious serv-
ices. A writer in the current number of
the New Era Illustrated Magazine says:
THE critical, not to say false, position
of modern Judaism. so far as religious OBJ
seyvanceS are concerned, Is best shown by
the curious fact that while the Jewish busi-
ness or professional man and the Jewish
society woman do not hesitate, year In and
year out, to violate the Sabbath whose In

The Limited Offspring Of American
Families
From the New York Herald.


Several correspondents of the Herald have
deplored the limited offspring of American
families, and have dolefully predicted the
ultimate extinction of the true bloods. The
census bureau has In some respects SUBJ
stantiated such fear by noting the fact
that the offspring of successive generations
OF natives has been gradually decreasing.
A half century ago a dozen children was
goodly average, but the number at present
scarcely reaches a quarter of that figure
The foreigners. on the other hand, are more
prolific, and appear to maintain an old
fashioned and thrifty standard of normal
birth rate.
One explanation for this is that our i'm
migrants as a rule belong to the poorer
class, are physically more robust, and are
untrammelled by the advanced social re-
quirements of the period. This differen nee
between the upper and lower grades of So
ciety is not peculiar to America. 1t Is
noted in all highly civilized countries and
Is in some respects a necessary guarantee
of prosperity and strength by the infusion
Of new blood from outside sources. Thus
TO some extent the evil of degeneracy or
possible extinction on one side Is counter
acted by new strength and increased growth
on the other. 1t is on this law of better
ment that must rest the integrity and physi-
cal purity of future generations, no matter
how mixed the ancestry.
Old families are not of so much account
in themselves as new ones with fresher
blood, more force, higher ambitions and
stronger bodies. Certainly from such points
Of view the future generations of Ameri-
cans can well take care of themselves One
of many dangers of decreased progeny Is in
the influx of luxuries. which brings indo-
lence. Indifference and degeneracy in all d.
rections. 1t is this that jeopardizes the flu
ture of any race more, perhaps, than all
other backward tendencies combined.

liked as a second choice. When one is not
successful in a search of this kind an eX-
pedient worth knowing is to buy a new
knocker and bury it in the ground until 1t
becomes green and moldy. After this burial
one clever girl has hit upon the idea Of
giving the knocker to her small brother to
play with. She did not tell him what she
hoped to accomplish. but in these war times
1t Is quite possible that the knockef will 60

For Modest Tastes

The inlaid Dutch furniture resembles
somewhat the Bouie, but is quite within
the bounds Of the modest antique pur-
chaser's sphere. The rich and bright col
ors of different woods are used in the mar
quetry, and the design is usually that Of
some picturesque foliage mingled with tu-
lips roses and birds. In addition to wood
other materials, such as ivory and mother
of-pearl, are employed. This Dutch furni-
ture was introduced into England during
the reign of William and Mary, and has
descended to us in the simpler and later
phase known as Queen Anne This seem
Ing confusion of names was brought
about by the practice Of using the names
Of royalty to denote styles both in furni-
ture and architecture as supplying more
convenient dates than the beginning and
end of a century. ,al v-
This quaint and simple Queen Anne fur
niture is a curious blending of Dutch and
French influences. The inlay is of Dutch
adoption, and the Gabrielle leg Is an en-
tirely French feature, A blending of the
two styles resulted Later in furniture of
the Queen Anne type. Queen Anne chairs
are exquisite. They have a strong under
granting and high,f fat decorated back
and side pieces of rather severe form and
the Gabrielle leg Some of the chairs are
three cornered. rather like a stool with

 places throughout the county. and has

In fact, there has been nc

The only reason the trains are not running into Nacozari is that the Mexican government has not yet accepted the road as completed. Capt. Cos. for whom the station of Cos was named. has not arrived from the City of Mexico to accept the road in the name of the government. As soon as this formality is gone through with regarding the granting of the conces- sion, the trains will run into Nacozari. A work train is going over the road nearly every day.

The owner of the gun would not identify it, and the charge of petit larceny was withdrawn and a charge of carrying concealed weapons made.

 the fact that the bit is cutting through an old river bed the progress is slow on account of boulders.
