PHiLApsLpHIA MUMM Mgss.
Thousands Expended Yearly For Cos
tunes Worn by the Members.

Peter Moran, captain of the Red
Onion Shooters Club, was taken to
the Jefferson Hospital during the New
Years parade. He tainted after
marching three miles under the
weight of his costume, which was
carried by eighty.seven pages and was
of such imposing dimensions that the
captain could not turn in Broad
street."
Nowadays, from two to three thou.
sand mummers are in the consolidat-
ed parade, and the money prizes have
grown to a total of nearly ten thou
sand dollars. Upper-class Philadel-
phia has condescended to find diver
sion in this pageant, so the mummers
march up on Broad street, and pass a
reviewing stand at the city hall. Just
like any commonplace demonstration.
The first prize attainable for the
finest club display is five hundred dol
lars. Last year the Thomas Clements
Club members and their friends spent
more than twenty thousand dollars in
the effort TO capture the champion
ship" 1t was their proud boast that
mot a suit in the line had ever been
on the street before" Capt. Duffy
was presented by this club. In his
wake trailed cavaliers, more mon
archs, harlequins, and strings of cour-
tiers whose trains weighed down
pages by the score. When you con-
slider that other clubs were out to
surpass the Clements" and that the
decision for first place gave the
judges some headaches, it is conser.
vative to declare that this Philadel-
phia show deserves more than local
attention. Last year the clubs in line
had more than one hundred thousand
dollars worth of costumes to display.
How can these wage earners sustain
the breaking strain year after year?
Partisan pride does miracles Of a.
nance. The most prominent clubs en-.

tered on the waters. The shopkeep-
ers Of the neighborhood are ready to
add their bit to the bulwarking Of
local prestige, and so from many
sources the revenues Of the Shooters
Club filter in. AS for the eager and
vainglorious captains, such one has
been known to slap a mortgage on his
house or shop to rally a desperate
finish for the king with the biggest,

Liquors Not Food.

According to a decision of the
Supreme Court the sale of adulter.
ated wines or liquors is not a viola
tion of the pure food laws. The
opinion was handed down by Chief
Justice Mitchell and reversed the
opinion of the Superior Court which
had sustained finding of the Com.
mon Pleas Court of Crawford coun-
ty in which hotel keeper was con-
victed of selling adulterated black
berry brandy. The conviction was
secured under the Act to Provide
Against the Adulteration of Food.
The Pure Food Department has
500 similar cases pending all over
the State, but they will now be
dropped. Had the Supreme Court
upheld the lower Courts, the State
would have collected $25 900 fines.
AS it is, it has collected 500 900
fines in liquor cases in the past
two years none of which will be
turned to those who paid them.

Fighting Fires in China,

the effect that he did not deliberately

pose, took him before an official half

After a lapse of forty minutes the
tiremen arrived, They looked at the
burning house and decided that ii was

New Tenant Law.

An important measure, which af-
fects the relation between landlords
and tenants, is the Marsteller act,
which has recently become a law.
1t provides that where a tenant
shall hold possession Of real estate
within this commonwealth either
by license or lease, oral or written.
tor any time less than one year, or
by the month for an undetermined
time and the immediate landlord of
such real estate shall desire to re-.
gain possession thereof from such
tenant or occupant he shall serve
upon the tenant or adult member
OF his family a notice in writing,
demanding that he require such
tenant or occupants to deliver to
him the possession of the premises
50 held within thirty days from the
day of service thereof; provided that
this act shall not be construed
as authorizing the dispossession of
tenant before the expiration OF
his or her lease or license.

THE JEW AS A RACE.
Modern European Jew Probably Not
Connected With Biblical Jew.

connected with BIBLICAL Jew
That 100000 out of the 100000
Jews now existing may not be Israel
ties in the strict sense of the word,
but may represent large proportion
of Slavic, German, and Hun intermix-
ture, was the suggestion made recent
ly by DR.. Maurice Fishberg as the
result of his long study of the anthro-
pology of the Jews of New York.
The problem which the doctor set
himself to work out was whether
there was any truth in the statement
generally accepted by anthropolo-
gists that the Jews of today are direct
descendants of the Israelites of an
cient times, and that little If any
intermixture had taken place between
them and the various peoples among
whom they had lived. Dr. Fishberg
measured about two thousand persons
as to the stature, cephalic index, eye
color, and hair color, and found that
by comparing the averages of these
several measurements with those of
the corresponding characters of the
Christian races of the countries where
the Jews had been born that Jews
coming from Russia, Germany, Poland,
Galicia, and Roumania resembled in
type the Christian inhabitants of
these countries.
The possibility of racial intermix-
ture is strengthened by the fact that
the Jews have lived in these several
countries for many hundred years,
monuments proving conclusively that
they have been in southern Russia for
1000 years and in Poland for 900
There is one source of difficulty,
however, and this is in the matter
of eye and hair color. A large proper
tion of Jews of all localities are
light haired or light eyed or both
But, strange to say. where the Chris
tian population is most blonde
the Jews are least. as in Lithu-
ania or northern Russia and
Germany. In southern Germany
and Russia, on the contrary,
where the natives are darker, the
Jews are lighter. DR.. Fishberg is not
yet able to explain this contradiction
One thing is clear from all this. The
modern European Jew is much more
allied by physical characters with
the native Christian population than
with the races generally looked upon
as pure Semitic as the Arabs and the
peoples of Palestine
1t is very probable, therefore, con-
cluded Or. Fishberg, that the modern
European Jew is not intimately con-
nected by blood with the true Semitic
Jews of the Biblical times.-New
York Evening Post.

The Revival in Wales,

According to all accounts, one of
the most remarkable religious re-
vivals of modern times is sweeping
over the mining districts of South
Wales. Thousands of workingmen
have professed a change of heart, and
many who were formerly profane,
Incorporate and licentious have sud
denly become quiet, modest, and rev.
erent in their demeanor models of
sobriety and right living. So radical
has been the transformation among
multitudes of miners that the whole
atmosphere of that industry, II Is
said, appears to have been changed.
The movement, which seems to have
been of spontaneous character and
without organization thus far, is so
deep and widespread and is attend.
ed with such remarkable results, that
competent observers are predicting
its spread over all the British Isles.

Lost Lanuuaue.

the death of the last woman who
spoke in the Cornish language, and
was erected by Frenchman.
1t Is a granite obelisk about seven
feet high and is built into the church
yard wall, the front facing the high
way, where it is plainly discernible by
all who pass that way. The upper
part is in the form of a Maltese
cross. The inscription reads as fol
lows: Here lieth inferred Dorothy

Cars for Japanese Government.
Order for Five Hundred Given Berwick
Plant.

The Berwick department of the
American Car and Foundry Com
pany has received an order Of SEQ
cars for the Japanese government.
The cars are hurry order, for
delivery in July or August. The
material will be assembled immedi-
ately and work will be in progress
in very short time.
The cars are steel underframes
with upper construction of wood.
The latter part will be constructed
at Bloomsbury department and if
the cars are not turned out as rap
idly as necessary this order will be
divided between Bloomsbury and
Milton.
The order was placed by the
New York agency of the Japanese
government and followed closely
the naval battle between Admirals
Togo and Rojestvensky. Its place
ment was apparently waiting results
of that battle as many orders have
since been placed in the market for
railway equipment and other con-
tracts for japanese government.
Thus this memorable battle in the
worlds history is being brought
home in its results by the order
which has been placed in the local
department.

The Farmers Wife

is very careful about her churn. She scalds
it thoroughly after using, and gives it a sun
bath to sweeten It, She knows that if her
churn is sour it will taint the butter that is
made in it. The stomach is churn. In
the stomach and digestive and nutritiye
tracts are performed processes which are ex.
actly akin to the churning of butter. Is it
not apparent then that if this stomach churn
is "sour' it sours all which is put into i,p
The evil of a foul stomach is not the bad
taste in the mouth and the foul breath
caused by ii, but the corruption of the pure
current of the blood and the dissemination
OF disease throughout the body. DR..

the souf stomach sweet. 1t does for the

with I3 young chicks, one more

Lost Peddler Was Slain For Money.
He Disappeared in 1897 In Bedford County.

From Bedford county comes the
story that old Isaac Goldman, a
pack peddler, of Altoona, who mys-
teriously disappeared eight years
ago, while on one of his regular
trips through the farming districts
of Bedford county, was murdered,
and that recently man, while un-
der the influence of liquor, boasted
of having been one fthe three men
who murdered the old peddler for
his money. Goldman was last
heard Of in the vicinity of Pavia,
Union township, across the Blair
county line. There w,re hints of
murder at the time, but no evidence,
The recent story has renewed the
hope that the criminals will not
escape justice. When the story
spread throughout Bedford, word
was sent to Mrs. Goldman, the
widow, who still lives at Altoona.
She offered reward of $500 for the
arrest and conviction of the murder
ers, and once again the mysterious
disappearance is being investigated.
The man who admitted implication
in the crime, is a member of what
is called in Union township the
Dutch Cowboys" They are not
desirable citizens, and no one will
tell of their doings for fear of per-
sonal violence. According to re-
ports, the confessed murderer said
that he and the others buried the
body three times on a lonely noun
tain, out of the way of the travelling
public. 1t is said that before Cold
man disappeared, another peddler,
familiar in that section, also failed
to reappear from one of his trips,
because he also had been murdered
for his money.

Life.

The poets exclamation: 80 Life | feel
thee bounding in my veins" is joyous one.
Persons that can rarely or never make it, in
honesty to themselves, are among the most
unfortunate. They do not live, but exist;
for to live implies more than to be. TO
live is to be well and strong to arise feeling
equal to the ordinary duties of the day, and
to retire not overcome by them--to feel life
bounding in the veins A medicine that has
made thousands of people, men and women,
well and strong, has accomplished a great
work, beStowing the richest blessings, and
that medicine is Hoods Sarsaparila. The
weak, rundown, or debiiated, from any
cause, should not fail 10 take it. 1t builds
up the whole system, changes existence into
liie, and makes life more abounding. We
are glad TO say these words in its favor 10

spot for bacteria TO enter.
To enrich the blood and increase the
red blood corpuscles, DR.. Pierce years ago
found a vegetable compound, which he
called DR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry, that would quickly cure the bad symp-
toms by increasing the red blood corpus
cles and thereby feeding the nerves on rich
blood. This Medical Discovery also acts
upon the digestion and assimilation of food,
from the products of digestion. Feed the
lungs, stomach and heart on rich red blood
and you have surely healthy body which
will throw of the germs Of disease which
lurk everywhere. Get as near natures
way as you can. A medicine made entirely
from botanical extracts and which does not
contain alcohol is the safest. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery contains neither
alcohol nor narcotics.
