GEORGE WASHINGTON, JR.
Patriotic Son of His Country in a
 Conan Comedy.

Conan Comedy.
 A large house last evening greeted George Cohan at the Hyperion theater Tn. the second performance of George
 Aington, jr." MT. Conan created iselEzii:ssss rsle nf @.Little 4sAnny Jones' which wasS.saas of the best at fractions in New York last season. He 1s not merely the star but the sum to- ljtal in George Washington, jr.," as he has composed the music and written and produced the play, besides taking the star part, which Is furiously fresh, ahe tilted-Derby type of humor, but certainly very taking.
 The production was very elaborate Both the pretty first scene, showing Mount Vernon, and the second, showing the lobby of Washington hotel, were applauded. This second scene with it's marble columns, frescoed ceiling, and complete fittings has the verisimilitude rarely possessed by gorgeous stage set tings.
 The supporting cast was good, espec- ially Eugene ORourke and Miss Levey, who won applause by her dancing.
 The muSlC was very CdtCuy duu VIII encored '"rhe Grand Old Rag" fingers in ones memory as decidedly whistle able. The chorus was refreshing as showing that there can be very grace full and pretty choruses without display of feminine understandings. This com edy, like Molly Moonshine," indicate that the musical comedy of flights is fated.
 A. This Is also shown by the remarkable Yfact that this comedy has very dis tinct and interesting plot The conver- sion of an Angomaniac with a setting or frankly American jolities appealed to the patriotism of the audience.
 The play will be repeated this even- ing and tomorrow afternoon and even- ing.

MIDSHIPMAN DECATUR
 SUMMARILY EXPELLED
(ContInued from First Page. )

A bAAi IlAob d6Ss)
 With respect to the first charge, two questions have been raised-whether the court erred in refusing to strike out that charge and the two specifications hereunder because the acts set in the specifications do not constitute the of- fense of hazing, as the last mentioned word is used in the act approved June 2S, lS74i secondly, whether the finding of the court can be sustained in view of the alleged fact that, as it is claimed, the evidence shows no act on the part of the accused coming within the same definition
 "The department holds that neither question is open for it's decision"
 Commenting on the act of June 2S, 1874, Secretary Bonaparte says the pro- vision in that statute making the find- ing of the court martial when approved by the superintendent of the naval academy final was contrary to the practically universal practive which prevails still in the administration of justice in the navy
 Secretary Bonaparte adds that it lluot pS PIS5ulHcu lldL lHG udlluudl legislature understood how nearly, without precedent, was their action and | deemed 1t to the public's interest that | the department should in these cases exercise no right of review. The court martial itself with the superintendent as a reviewing authority must judge, | therefore, in the last resort, as to all questions, but should question of constitutional right be involved in the conviction of nlidshpman, the depart ment would be obliged to pass upon the rightfulness of sucn conviction, in So far as 1t might be affected by the de- nial of the right claimed but says the secretary, a careful examination of the record in the Decatur case disclosed nc such question with respect to the first charge.
 The secretary concludes;
 "To summarily expell the convicted
 midsilipman is the only course open tC
 the department in the present case"

POWER OF GERMAN SOCIALISTS
Members of Prussian House of Lords
 Fearful.


 Berlin, Jan. 25.-several members of the Prussian house of lords to-day 1n- terpellated Chancellor Won Buelow re- garding the governments s proposed line of action against the socialists, asking him whether the government thought the existing legislation adequate for opposing the 'social democratic plans hostile to the fatherland.'
 Count Von Eulenberf In supporting the interpolation predicted an open struggle with the socialists unless ener- getfc measures were taken, adding that if the socialists were let alone the downfall of the empire must follow.
 The chancellor replied that the gov- ernment> did not think that special legislation was necessary, but 1t would make energetic use of the powers al- ready bestowed upon 1t. The govern ment itself must decide when the mo- ment had arrived to ask for further legislative assistance. He advised against warning the government in this matter because it could only work injury by keeping alive the socialists hope of realizing their aims under the present law.
 Continuing the chancellor urged the non-socialist parties to lay aside their differences for a common fight against socialism, and said he regretted that some of these parties were making e'ec- tion compacts with the socialists, ana promised that the existing laws would be sharply applied against the common enemy.

Converting
the Jews

long article Wf1CCon Dy
Rev. w. H. Walker, d. D., entitled
Debtors to the Jew The reverend
doctor urges his Christian friends
to send missionaries among the
Jews for the purpose Of convert
ing them to Christianity. He ad-
vances seven reasons why Jews should
be converted to the belief of Christ. He
defends the obstinacy of the Jew in the
following statements
''The Jew is the great miracle of the
ages, and is standing argument Of the
truth of the Christian religion. 1t is
impossible to read the Bible without rec
ognizing his superior place in the plan
and purpose Of God. 1t is great mis-
take for a Christian to make to imagine
that because the Jew has forfeited all
right to his place Of blessing, and added
to his guilt the solemn act Of crucifying
the Son of God, that God has changed
His purpose toward the Jew. The prom
ises of God made to Abraham 43O years
before the law was given have not been

are proud of their humbled and despised
Apostles who suffered martyrdom. But
the greatest of all sufferers is Israel. 1t is
to humanity what the heart is to the hui
man body. AS the heart is affected by
are smitten by every misfortune
which comes to the nations of the world.
But in spite of unspeakable atrocity the
Jews still live as witnesses to their i'm
mortal faith. The influence on mankind
which the Jewish Bible and Jewish ira
ditions have exercised is beyond compu-
tation. We must recognize the force of
Jewish teachings as one of the religious
currents in civilized history. And it is
ever to be wondered at how the Church
which arose out Of ancient Judaism and
which owes it's existence to it, and which
drew from it not only it's religion but
even it's political inspiration, should
have anything but the kindliest feeling
of appreciation for the people which
gave to Christianity the Bible and the
Saviour.
The Jews have yet to accomplish
their mission. The mass of the Jewish
people is still dominated by messianic
hopes, separated from other nations and
strengthening the bonds with one an
other, under the influence of the convic-
ton that there is divine mission for
Israel in the world s history. We do not
care to define what the mission is. Its
Interpretation is not clear Some look
forward to a personal Messiah and a pO-
litical future in Zion others anticipate
a messianic age and the spread Of Jew
ish conceptions and Jewish ideals.
The Jews have been and still are the
missionaries of truth and righteousness,
Of the unity of God and man. How well
they have succeeded in the past history
tells us. Their future depends on
the solidarity and unity of the race
To-day they are potent factors in all
that is moral and elevating; convert
them to Christianity and their influence
will cease, and humanity will be reft of
it's most powerful moral force.
The Jewish outlook., 1906-02-23

keep the law. ''The gifts and calling of
God are without repentance land God
is able to graft them in again." although
now they are broken off and have be-
come practically ''not my people,. -
Even Christian people in the enjoyment
of their fuller blessings are apt to for
get the cost at which they have come to
us, and fail to give back again to the
Jew according as we have received from
him. Blindness in part has happened to
Israel-what for? Let Paul supply the
answer. Why are they the enemies OF
the Gospel? 1t is for your sake What
ought to be your attitude toward them?
To provoke them to jealousy that they
may be led to desire and to obtain the
larger blessings of the Gospel which you
enjoy.'
The Jew, he maintains, is included in
the original message of Christ, which
preached the Gospel to every creature.
Up to now, the Gospel was eXpounded
to all except the jew The Jew was
left out, and to-day there are fewer mis-
sonaries to the Jews than to any other
people. They are looked upon as the
worst people in the world; if this were
so, so much greater is their need Of the
Gospel. His strongest argument for the
conversion Of the Jews is that the Jews
dwell among every nation of the earth.
They are found everywhere. In sending
missionaries to foreign countries the
first thing that should be done is to
learn the language and customs Of the
people. This demand of time and
money must be met before the work can
begin, but the Jew is master of most of
the known languages and in his conver-
sion there is material for work ready at
hand AS matter of missionary eco
Monies the Christian should go to the
Jews first.
The tendency Of our Christian friends
to look at the Jew with eyes of pity is
indeed amusing. They consider the
Jews as a forlorn race, without the
chance of salvation. They forget the in
controvertible fact that the Jews are
the founders Of monotheism. that the
ethics of the New Testament are taken
from the Jewish Bible and from the
teachings of the Talmud, and that the
Christian religion is an imitation Of
Jewish belief with the addition of the
miracles Of the New Testament concern
ing the birth, death and rise Of Jesus,
the truthfulness of which the Jews have
always emphatically denied.
The Jews are commissioned to serve
mankind as priests and prophets of
righteousness.
In order to actualize their mission,
their dispersion, with it's consequent
