Jealous tyfant, OF WhOm men, his slaves,
were in mortal fear and dread, not, how
ever of the God of Israel kind father,
who loves his children. Even when he
"chastseth he doeth so like a father,
whose only object is to make his son bet
ter (Proverbs :12), 'draws his way
ward children forward with human
cords and with leading strings Of love-
Hosea II ~ heals where he has torn

ten C :1-3) For a brief moment he may
forsake us, but with great mercy he
will again receive us ''In little
wrath did l (God) hide my face for
moment from thee, but with everlasting
kindness will | have mercy on thee.
For, the mountains may depart, the hills
may be removed, yet my kindness shall
never depart from thee, saith God, who
hath mercy upon thee Elsa. 54:7-1O).
Yet the whole Christian orthodox
scheme of salvation, with the dogmas
of original sin, total depravity, atone
ment by means of the blood of medi-
ator and redeemer is Greek, and not
Jecish. That ardent longing and yearn-
ing after publication, that craving af-
ter moral elevation which Judaism so
fittingly calls K,rdh ElOhin, to "draw
near God," by means of which man,
though deeply sunk into the mire of
sin, can still rise again from the "dust
of the earth to the Image OF God"
within him, we seek in vain in classical
Hellenism. Judaism says to man: eff
thou repairest what thou hast ruined,
if thou rebuildest what thou hast de-
stroyed thou art able to redeem thyself
to be thy own savior, redeemer and
Mediator. No other person. no angel,
and no God can do it for thee AS
Hillel puts it: ''If an not for my-
self, acho acHH be for myself" 1t is this
doctrine of atonement on which the
ways of Judaism and Christianity part
company. t.-...
But fasting and prayer cannot make
us "at one' with our fellowmen. Only
good conduct can accomplish this. This
important lesson is best expressed in
the famous fifty y-eighth chapter of Isa-
iah, and in the booklet Of Jonah, which
the Robbis of old have chosen as Haph-
tharah S for Yom Kippur; as terror
to evil doers.
AS if the words in Jonah, "God saw
the deeds of the Ninevites, that they had
returned from their evil ways, and that
they had restored what they had stolen
and robbed were not yet sufficiently
clear, those old rabbis, who were very
liberal emphatically add the following

Death of Mori,z Ellinger


prominent figure in Jewish American
life, died in Mount Vernon, New York,
in his seventy-seventh year.
Mr.. Ellinger was born in Furth- Ba-
varia, October II, 1880, and was edu-
Gated at the Orphan Asylum of his ma
tive place, studying subsequently at the
Wurzburg Yeshiba under the famous
Rabbi Seligman Baer Bamberger He
received broad education in sacred and
secular knowledge.
He was much in demand until recent
years as a public speaker, and as a lay
preacher. He was prominently fitted
for journalism, and besides working
much for the press, was publisher and
editor for many years of the Jewish
Times, published in New York in March,
1869, which subsequently became the Re-
former and the Jewish Times, and
ceased to exist in the fall of 1879, and
was also the editor Of The Menorah Mag
azine after the death of it's founder,
Hon. Ben jamin F. Peixotto.
Mr. Ellinger came to the United States
in 1854, and soon identified himself with
the B mai B 'rith, becoming member of
Washington Lodge, and for over ten
years secretary to the executive commit
tee of the order, carrying on mainly the
foreign correspondence of the order,
which led to the establishment under the
direction of julius Bien, it's president
at the time and now it's foreign chan
cellor, of the chain of lodges in Ger
many, Austria, Roumania, and the Ori-
ent. He was especially active in the
conduct of the Maimonides Library,
which in the early days of the order was
the center Of social and literary activity
in New York. Trained in the old Ger
man school" he was, though reformer
and a radical in many respects, i'm
mensely proud Of the Jewish contribu-
tions to history, and he could deliver ad-
dresses filled with Talmudical maxims
and "reminiscences from Jewish life.
The records in the Menorah contain
many of his articles on Biblical and
post Biblical themes.
Mr.. Ellinger was identified with polit-
ical life, and served as coroner of New
York county from 1876 to 1881. Prior
to that he was for some years connected
with the finance department. Of New
York City, and since 1888, has been rec
ord clerk and interpreter of the Surro-
gate s Court. He was connected with
the Goethe Club, the Palette Club,
the Medico-Legal Society, and the
Society Of American Authors. He
married Miss Julia Waterman. who,

When We We're Barmitzvah

dawned wonderful light existence Of
fered to us in this, our thirteenth, year a
new and novel charm. For we were to
be BarmitZvah, and that meant being
drafted into the ranks of Israel s elders
TO us there came feeling Of decided SUI
periority over those comrades who were
our Juniors. Perhaps we Out-distanced
them by only a month or so, but that
made all the difference We recall the
laborious study of our Parsha; the low
ing care bestowed by our paternal grand
parent upon the correct intonation of ev
cry note; the exactitude with which each
of the intricate Tangamim had to be in
terpreted; the summer night in the
slowly darkening room, all these pleas
ant thoughts and happy recollections
come home to us now with an exquisite
thrill, they linger in the recesses Of the
memory as though loth-very loth-to
depart We recall the hours of pleasant
labor spent in the study of our portion
For many long months had our good
parents scraped and saved for this happy
event, and anxiously did they follow our
progress under the tuition of that indul-
gent grandfather, to whom the omission
of quaver in the haunting music was a
cTllllc Idfolly 10 De eNpldlcu, anu WHICH,
was of far more consequence in his eyes
than all the phenomenal cricket scores
about which we raved in our school
hours.
We hark back to the scene in the syn
agOgue on that eventful Sabbath morn
ing and smile when we recall our diminu-
tive SELF Yod in hand, reading from the
cumbrous scroll of the law. They told
us afterwards that we read like Chazan
in embryo, and we flushed with pride at
the unexpected compliment, for vocalism
had never been our forte Then the con-
gratulations from fair friends and rela-
tives assembled behind the grille Of the
ladies gallery the tear-laden maternal
embrace, and the hasty kiss from the
maiden aunt who loved us none too
sweetly.
"
All goods things must end sooner or
later. We built beautiful castles in the
air. dreamed the extravagant dreams Of
youth, and made up our mind to fulfil
many fine resolutions at that time. We
wonder now, in our thoughtful moments,
how many Of these resolutions we have
ever kept. "When we were Barmitz-
vah how pleasant and lasting the

feet below the embankment to clean UP
after blast The earth In this part OF
the excavation Is studded with boulders
weighing from 100 pounds to ton. which
it was necessary to remove with extreme
care In order to avoid accidents.
A short distance north OF the spot
where Tareno's men were at work a big
steam shovel was busy eating out great
chunks of loose earth and gravel. Sud-
denly loosened, it was thought. by the
jar OF the steam shovel, an avalanche of
earth and boulders swept down on the
clearing gang. All but Vallow had time
to escape, but he was unable to free him
self from the loose ear.h and fell crushed
under 5OO-pound rock

Baltimore Has to Raise Big Sum on

BALTIMORE, November 1.-THE city
negotiated yesterday its first big loan
since 1898, when 1t borrowed s5OO.OOO at
6 per cent interest from ten of it's de-
positories. Each of the banks loaned
the city $4,000 on short-time notes. and

rowing $780, 900 additional from six re-

The national banks from which the loan
was made yesterday are the Mechanics

merce and the Bank OF Baltimore The
repositories that will contribute the ad-
dftional $4,000 are the Drovers and Me-

With the s5oo,OoO just borrowed, which
was brought to the city register in cash,
$2l6 900 on hand and SI50.OOO to be bor-
rowed shortly, 1t Is estimated that the
city will have sufficient resources to meet
all expenses until January l, 1905 when
the situation will be greatly relieved by
the incoming taxes.
1t became necessary for the city to
borrow the 100000 on account of its
inability to dispose of the city stock at
any reasonable figure. The unstable con-
dition of the money market made it i'm
possible to sell the stock except at a sac
rifice. The stock will not be offered for
sale until 1t commands good price,

WORLDS WONDERLAND.
Jaunt Through Yellowstone Park
With Dwight Elmendorf.

Dwight Elmendorf pioted a large au-
dience yesterday afternoon at the> Ma
tional Theater in jaunt through the
Yellowstone Park. the wonderland of the
world. 1t was the last of his series of
afternoon travelogues for 1907 and the
interest in them showed no diminuton in
attendance that filled every seat in the
house
For two hours the company was trans
ported over the highways of the beauti-
full park, and from the arrival It the
mammoth hot springs to the climax of the
famous yellowstone canyon with its pic
turesque falls and mirror lake there was
an uninterrupted season of pleasurable
surprises Tor those who had never visited
the park and delightful "reminiscences for
those who have seen the wo. erland.
The curious formations of the springs, the
spouting geysers, the mountain of glass,
curious paint pots and legendary cliffs
and lakes all contributed to series of
pictures both wonderful and instructive.
Not the least interesting among the
views were those Of the animal and floral
life of the park. and the .lumor that
leavened the interesting facts and won
ders of the talk was the motion pictures
of bear life. Here were presented the
Teddy" bears. little fellows that gam
boiled by their mothers side and later In
captivity engaged in a boxing match
over the contents of a tomato can. The
views of flowers were beautiful and
evoked many "oh's" from the ladies.
Following Mr.. El.nendorf's engagement
Of ten weeks at the Thomas Orchestra
Hall In Chicago he will leave for an ex-
tended tour in order to secure material
for entirely new series of lectures to
be delivered in this city early In the fail
of 1905 Mr.. EImendorf is not yet fully
decided. but will likely travel either In
South America or India. Next year the
lectures will be given on Thursday after
Moons instead of Mondays. affordine him
more time for his descriptive talks.
