THE FOLLOWING LETTER EXPLAINS
ITSELF.
Albuquerque, N. NJ, Jan. 7, 1907.
Mr.. David S. Rosenwald,
President Congregation Albert.
Dear Sir:-Owing to the feeling
stirred up in this city by the unfortun-
ately worded article in The Barbarian,
written with the highest and purest in
tentions of doing good, and owing to the
possible harm that might come to the
Jewish congregation from that article
by my stay in this city, on account Of
that feeling, 1 deem it advisable for the
best interests Of the congregation and
myself to tender you my resignation as
rabbi of Congregation Albert, assuring
you that my four and one-half years Of
service in your congregation have been
more pleasant than I can express, and
my relations with the members almost
ideal. Sincerely,
JACOB H. KAPLAN.
The congregation deeply regrets Rabbi
Kaplan's resignation, but felt that it
was necessary for him to leave Albu-
querque in order to prevent physical
violence DR.. Kaplan has received the

The Russian Outlook

The concessions promised to the Rus
sian Jews tarry ominously. The Impe-
rial Ukase which was said to be on the
point Of being signed, has failed to ap-
pear, and according to one account the
Tsar has finally decided to reject the
scheme of Jewish reforms. At the best,
the prospects at the moment seem
gloomy The reactionary elements have
rights, while the position of M. Stoly-
of reform, is said to have weakened mat
erially. At worst, the Jewish question,
instead Of taking turn for the better,
may be regarded as having entered on
still more arbitrary and antagonistlc
phase. From various quarters come re-
ports that so far from measures Of relief
being forthcoming additional restrictions
are contemplated. The whole course OF
events points but one moral. The Rus
sian Jews cannot and must not rely on
the favor Of the court or it's nominees
for redress. Where any glimmer OF
good will exists in these spheres it is in
constant danger Of extinction by adverse
parties. Indeed, this very week the Tsar
is said to have extended his imperial
clemency to criminal, who had muir
dered Jewish lawyer, and that, too, at
a time when the lives of the Russian
Jews are in perpetual danger at the
hands Of league-the Union OF Russian
-Men-which makes Jewish massacres
part of it's regular program. If the high
authorities of Odessa take this league
under their special protection and the
Tsar shields member Of the Black Hun
dreds it is clear that the Jewish hopes
of receiving relief form the present gov
ernment and it's friends are of the most
remote and slender character. The Jews
of Russia must, therefore, work for their
own salvation, in combination with those
parties which are pledged to the policy
of emancipation and resolved to abide
honorably by their pact. Since the
above was written circumstantial reports
have appeared Of coming concessions.
The Jewish outlook., 1907-01-11
But the main grievances will be left to
the Duma where the hopes of the Jews
will reside in the Liberal parties.
Moral Training For Children

44VA "a "a oAAAA6 CVA SA4AuA GA
The absolute essentials in moral train
ing may be summed up in two words
obedience and truth. Yet mothers are
sometimes overzealous in the methods
they pursue when they cultivate these
qualities, says Margaret E. Sangster in
the Woman's s Home Companion for JAN
uary. The first is taught tenderly and
lovingly, when tiny hands are held away
from forbidden object, and when lit
tie child by frequent iteration learns
the meaning Of the word ''No." The
second, which is the keystone in the arch
of character, depends almost entirely on
the mental habit and daily practice Of
the parent. If you are invariably sin
cere yourself, if you expect truth from a
child and never deceive it in any way,
your child will be true. Some Of us are
so literal that we never make allowances
as we ought for the vivid imaginationi
Of children in a world where everything
to them is. new. Both obedience and
truth may be taught with the minimum
Of punishment. Discipline is needful,
but harshress is no part of discipline.
Alas, parental vanity often keeps pace
with parental anxiety, and the first child
comes in for an amount of discipline
far too deeply colored by severity. Never
punish child in anger or by depriving
it Of food Or by thrusting it into the
dark. Terror Of darkness is a specter
that shadows too many an infantile life.
The dark is dear and friendly and sweet
if child has been taught Alright The
only notion that child's will must be
broken is worthy Of savagery, but not Of
civilization. The will is not to be broken,
but to be trained and guided.
If 1 could persuade every mother who
reads this that the object Of punishment
is to emphasize attention and not to in
flict pain, I would rejoice. More and
more it has come to me that many chill
dren suffer keenly from misunderstand-
ing and injustice, and from the mistaken
desire Of parents to have them appear
models Of good behavior, and the whole
sum Of the matter is an infringement Of
the rights and privileges of childhood.
At best, childhood soon passes. Let us
make the child happy while we can.

sew IDEA or CONSUMPTION.
Doctor Says Disease 10 Primarily De
rived from Cattle.

ALondon physician, Dr. W. Picket
Turner who has made a first hald
study Of the disease for many years,
advances the theory that the medical
world Is attacking the problem of con.
sumption BY an utterly false route
His view, briefly stated, Is that tu
berculos,s is an animal disease pri.
marily derived. in all cases, from cat
lie. 1t belongs, he, says. to the my
eotic groHp Of diseases, diseases ir
which the original source of infection
is plant. Bovine cattle derive tuber
culosis from timothy and other allied
grasses by natural affinity.
Man acquires the disease by inges
tion or inoculation, never by inhala
ton. 1t is not hereditary; neither is
there any predlsposition to 1t in the
individual. The bacillus In state OF
nature Is saprophyte,. feeding on decay
of the vegetable world. But the ba
cillus becomes pathogenic-capable nj
causing disease-in cattle when they
are deprived of actinism or the prop.
erty OF the chemical rays In sunlight
It would, II all this be true, become
reasonable to assume that by restor.
ing actinism to cattle the bacillus
would again become a saprophyte, In
which case consumption would be ex.
tirpated.

Eight months ago Mrs. Markhoff,

pounds, was taken i'll with tuber-

there is no hope.
