Again Temple Emanuel comes to the
top with it's generous donations to the
sick poor, and again do it's ladies shine

Mrs. M. D. Barnett, the Misses Bella and
Daisy Levin and Miss Tillie Morse, un-
der the leadership Of Mrs. M. Kleiner at

spirit and their existence amounts to nil
so far as American Jewry is concerned.
Certainly we have no axes to grind with
those who uphold the committee; they
might be right in their opinions, though
we doubt their sincerity, as their
changed opinions may have been to a
great extent influenced by the fact that
some one or more among their midst
had been chosen in the committee, others
because of their inborn cowardice, fol-
lowed up the worshiping of the golden
calf, and, last but not least one contem-
pOrary, having been purchased by the
capitalists, must publish that which it is
ordered.
What is beyond our comprehension is
the fact that according to the weekly
owned and supported by the chief mem
bers Of the committee it's aim is in the
lines of the duties of in Independent Or
der mai B 'rith
Says that weekly:
''The expressed object of the commit
tee s work covers a very wide field, in
deed no less than what is known as the
Jewish question. 1t has both prevent
i've and a remedial function to perform.
w neGcNeF Jews are threatened Will
attack they are to endeavor to prevent
such onslaughts, whether upon the per-
sons or the rights of the Jews, and when
such have occurred the American Jewish
committee is to attempt to alleviate the
consequences Of the persecution Apart
from this it would appear that even ca
lamities due to the natural accidents OF
existence are to enlist the sympathy OF
the committee, and, indeed, their first
action has been with regard to case Of
this kind"
Does not the mission of B mai B 'rith
include the same activity p" alleviating
the wants Of the poor and the needy

Of persecution Has not
that order taken up such activities and
done good work? Why the committee9
Has the order gone into oblivion? Has
it given up it's ghost? or has it changed
it's mission? Do the representatives OF
the order feel themselves incapable to
cope with such calamities?
The mere acceptance Of the office as
one of the committee by the Grand Pres
ident Kraus, knowing that the committee
has the same scope Of activity as the Or
der at whose head he is, is to say the
least, a snub to the members Of this great
order.

!. MISSISSIPPI MATTERS
Galloway's Tribute to Lamar.

BY far the most brilliant assembly
that has yet gathered in the new CAPT
tol at Jackson was that which greeted
Bishop Charles B. Galloway on the oc-
casion of his lecture on the life and
worth of L. @. G. Lamar. The theme,
the man, and She audience were all in
spring. Bishop Galloway, accompa-
MED by Lieut.-G Gov. Carter and Speaker
Thomas, assembled the rostrum and the
distinguished trio were loudly cheered
by the fine, responsive audience. The
meeting was called to order by Speaker
Thomas, who in turn presented Lieut.
Gov. Carter to formally introduce
Bishop Galloway, which he did in brief
but graceful terms. Then the eloquent
divine told his well considered sketch
of Lamar, told with all the fervor and
strength of one who had studied his
hero well and intimately, who, as he
remarked, was the Gamaliel at whose
feet the speaker had sat and from
whom he had drawn inspiration.
Throughout his long and eventful ca
reer Bishop Galloway told again the
story of Lamar, and such was the
sketch he drew that one could not help
feeling proud of being a citizen of the
State which Lamar had honored.

The stairs at the end led down to
Anne's own room.
In her three years as queen she
came occasionally to Hever, especially
after Elizabeth was born to her and
the tickle king began to fancy Lady
Jane Seymour. For a time he is said
to have kept her virtually a prisoner
in her room at Hever.
Mr.. Astor found it with fallen for
tunes upon it, magnificent and shabby
wainscot, mouldy, it's hangings gone,
stones Clipped by sightseers and in
Vulnerable initials scrubbed on it's in
ner walls.
Three years more will scarcely see
the Improvements completed, and the
cost nobody has the hardihood to at
tempt to compute.
1t includes replacing the injured and
decayed stones, repaneling the wood
work damaged by tourists and clean
ing the rest with acid and steel. In
stead of the hop farm buildings he
found he is erecting, all under one red
tiled roof, a hundred Tudor cottages.
These will be made of the spoil from
ancient buildings in the county, and
will be joined to the castle by a bridge
and also a tunnel. He will keep Anne's
bedroom as lC was. The room which is
known as King Henry's he will fix up
for his own use. The outer moat Is
already reopened, and owe it a repro

will give admittance to the principal
gate.
One of the farms on the estate he
has transformed and done over and re-
equipped till it is described as being
probably without equal in the United
Kingdom" Its s%plendors include quar-
tered oak for the COW sheds and pig
stys. The piggeries are opulent be-
yond any ever before erected. Choco-
late and white tiles decorate the cow
stables. The dairy is walled with mo-
sales made by Italian workmen; and
in the center plays a fountain.
In making the lake zoe wagons a
day, a regiment of diggers and a min
iature railway system have been m
ployed. The lake is to be stocked with
fish.
Deer are to be brought from Ger

in a timber wall nine feet high. The
proper foresting of the preserve has
been under way two years.

New York, Feb. 22.--The American
this morning says it was discovered
Wednesday that the value of the Yerkes
estate amounted to nearer $4,000, 900
at the time OF his death than to $15.-
600, 900. That news of this startling
discovery had suddenly reached the ears
of Mrs. Yerkes-Mizner seemed certain
Wednesday night, when it was learned
that she had hurriedly revoked her de-
cision to withdraw as trustee under the
will, and that Louis S. Owsley, CO.
trustee with her, and her stepson,
Charles, had rushed to this city from
Chicago, summoned to a conference
with her.
cit has been ~ascertained," said a
friend Of Wilson Miner, that about
$50, 900, 900 worth of bonds and securi-
ties belonging to the Yerkes estate had
been hidden" The discovery is attrib-
uted to Wilson Miner, who married
Mrs. Yerkes.

That the Least Said About the
Matter the Better.

Washington, Feb. 22.-Dr. Minor
Morris, whose wife some weeks ago
was elected from the White House,
where she had gone to present alleged
grievances to the president, Wednesday
gave out for publication the CORE
%spondence which recently passed be-

DR.. Morris demanded a public apology
of the president "for this outrage on
womanhood and common decency."
Secretary Loeb replied to the letter.
stating that an investigation by the
chief of police showed that the arrest
was justified, and that the kindest act
to Mrs. Morris and her kinsfolk was to
refrain from giving the case additional

HISTORIC OLD CASTLE
HEVER RUINS AT KENT, ENG,
BEING MoDERNIzED.
Home of Queen Anne Boleyn to Be
Occupied by William Waldorf
Astor-Model Estate
Planned.

American wealth and genius are
gradually transforming a historic old
Tudor castle into a modern residence
with all the conveniences imaginable.
Since William Waldorf Aston has ac-
quired Hever castle, in Kent, England,
at one time the home of Queen Anne
Boleyn, he has been Transforming the
entire estate.
In so doing he has not only amazed
but upset, and disarranged the county
side. He has had 1000 men at the work
for two years. He has opened his W
quarry for stone and already more
than $4,000 tons of other material
have passed over the roads for him.
Horses have been Communicated for
miles around-his carriage bills a'one,
the villagers emphasize, have been ST.
300 a month.
Save for the introduction of an Ital-
ian garden in the grounds his Testor-
alton of a decayed and historic pile
is as far as may be outwardly in keep
ing with the original estate.
These are things he has done or
plans to do: Restore the building to
its battlemented glorieS; construct
feudalistic villages; divert the River
Eden from its course and give it new
windings and weirs and falls; bridge
it with iron; dig a lake covering As
acres; open a public road three-fourths
of a mile in length; bore an artesian
well and make a reservoir; lay out a
deer park and grow trees; set up Il
power house of Tuderesque design for
the electric lights and water pumps;
start a household supply farm; renew
or scrape the castle paneling; put in
open plumbing; fashion at n side of
the castle some Italian gardens.
The parish clerk and village school
master, a parsonage of great presence
and weight, in a book, Historic Hev-
er," places it's date in the twelfth or
thirteenth century. Probably the Ii
cense to hold this "battlemented cas-
tie" was obtained from King Stephen.
Tablets in the village church do not
tell anything of it's story back OF its
occupancy by Sir Thomas Boleyn I'm
the sixteenth century. Lady Anne, al
ready a celebrated beauty, was n of
the maids of King Hairs first wife,
Katharine of Aragon. When Cardinal
Wolsey at Henry's behest broke off
her engagement to Percy, she CINE

FILED A MOTION TO QUAsH

To the Amount of $15O,OOO, In
Court at Butler, Mo.

Butler, Mo, Feb. 22.-When the case
Of Thomas M. Casey, accused of forg-
ing notes to the amount Of $3.50, 600
while manager Of the now defunct Sal
mon & Salmon bank of Clinton, was
called for trial here before Circuit
Judge Denton Wednesday, Attorney w.
w. Graves for the defendant filed q
motion to quash the indictment on
technical grounds.
In support Of his plea Attorney
Graves argued that the proceedings of
the Henry county grand jury, which
returned a total : of 10 indictments
against Casey, were not conducted in
secret, as the jury, without warrant
of law, permitted the attendance of the
encouragement and his assistant and
a stenographer, who was not, he held,
a sworn officer of the court

l would advise copying this table in
the front of your cook book for future
reference.
While LUCK has no place In scientific
cooking, judgment does play an impor-
tant part. A recipe may call for three
cupfuls of flour, but if that flour hap
pens to be very rich in gluten, and you
are making a cake, it would be better
to use two and three-quarter cupfuls
or even two and a half.
If you are told to boil a piece Il meat
four hours, and the piece is exceedingly
tender, it would be better to use judg
ment and not boil the meat quite sc
long.
In regard to seasoning, it is hard tC
give any definite rule. Season &c
taste" is a safe and reliable method
But when you do season that way be
sure to use a teaspoon and pour into
this from the stirring spoon. 1t is dis
gushing to think of the same spoon
which is used for the stirring being put
into the mouth of whoever happens tC
be cooking.
1t is better to have too little salt anG
pepper than too much. 1t can always
be added at the table. But a dish per
fectly cooked should need no additions
and the seasoning should be so per
fectly blended that no particular one
is observable.
Salt brings out the flavor of many
things. Oyster soup will scarcely TASTE
of the oyster until sufficient salt has
been added.
Red pepper is the purest form of pep
per, Inc while it should be used spar
ingly. it should be used in preference
to any other pepper. 1T imparts a fla
vor distinctly it's own. Whole pepper
should always be used in soup stock
and wherever it can be easily removed
Season carefully and garnish lightly
are two good things to remember.

WAS A PAINLESS WOUND.
Ships Officer Disfgured by Big Gun
But Not at All Dis
abled.

1t was about this time that l was
wounded-most strangely, in the fact
that while my wound was severe it
was wholly painless, relates a Pearson's
Magazine writer. The fire of the enemy
had become exceedingly accurate and
the shells were bursting all around.
With the flag officer and his staff |
was standing or the bridge and our
group made a pretty target for the
gunners on shore. Dupont, in his po-
lite manner, said, presently:
Gentlemen, l would suggest that
some of you had better leave the
bridge. If our friends over there
should drop a shell among us we
might lose some valuable officers"
Being the junior and inferior officer
of the crowd, l retired at once to the
spar deck. when a shell came through
our bulwarks and gave me a severe
shake-up. Remembering the old adage
that lightning never strikes twice in
the same place, | went to the shat
tered port to look out and to continue
my notes of the fight. AS | leaned
over. one of u own guns fired. and
the gromet-a wadding of rope yarn
blew back into my long whiskers, and
in an instant my face was in flames.
1t took me but a second to extinguish
the con~flagration; but it was too late
to save even a respectable remnant of
a beard whose glory had excited the
envy of even the prince of Wales. l
hurried below, took a pair of shears
and trimmed my whiskers a la Grant.
When | returned to the deck one of
the officers said to me:
"Well. sir, where in the devil did
you come from?"
1 saw in a moment that he did not
recognize me. and l said:
81 came up from below. sir. My
name is Osbon Of the Wabash, sir"
The shells were flying about pretty
thickly just then and it was a poor
time to discuss matters, but he stared
at me for several seconds before he
could take it in.
"In the name of heaven what is the
matter with you?" he asked.
81 have been severely wounded" /
replied, Gin the whiskers."

MAY NEVER BE RECOVERED
Bodies of Dead Fire Fighters In the
Old Dominion Mine Are Beyond
the Hope of Rescue.

Globe, Ariz., Feb. 22.-The bodies Of
Joseph I%kenberry, 10 Artissey and John
James, who met death in an effort to
fight the flames in the Old Dominion
mine, probably will never be recov-
cred. All the compartments have been
tulkheaded off, and miners are making
heroic efforts to subdue the flames.
They can not reach tNN pumps on some
levels, however, and , is feared the
mine will be flooded, and it will take
six months to extinguish the fire. All
the miners in the mine when the fire
broke out escaped. The dead men were
suffocated while trying to put out the
flames.
