Throughout the length and breadth

Yesterday. Falling upon Sunday, 1t
was appropriate that the life and SER
vices of the great missionary bishop
who won Erin for Christianity, should
be comnemorated In the churches as
wei! as by individuals who claim
either descent or nativity from Ire
land. The shamrock, the little leaf by
means OF which st. Patrick Impressed
the idea of the triune God so effective
ly upon the hearers. was worn every
where by Irishmen, and their sons and
daughters. by Catholics generally and
Ly many other persons.
Tho principal observance OF the day
in Richmond was at ST. Patrick's
Catholic Church. whore special SER
VICES were held. and Rev. Father
Doyle. noted Paulist missionary OF
Washington, preached an eloquent SER
mon In the nature Of q review OF the
life and services of the great saint and
its far-reaching influence upon the sub
sequent history OF Ireland and OF almost
all Civilized nations, Right Rev. A. Van
de Vyver, bishop OF the diocese OF Rich
mond, presided at the services. Rev,
Hugh j.. McKeefrey celebrated the mass,
Rev, Father Albert, O. 8. B., assisting
as deacon, and Rev. Thomas Rankin as
subdeacon. There were forty-fiye SUR

Stricken with fatal illness just as
he reached Richmond after a journey
all the way from Denver. Col, en- route
to Newport News to see his sweetheart,
to whom he had just become engaged,
Mr.. Harry II. III. Rogers, young man
OF about twenty-five years OF age, died
at 1880 o'clock this morning at the
Retreat for the Sick.
Mr.. Rogers arrived In Richmond We'd
nesday evening, and the illness, which
had attacked him on the train, became
much worse. He went to the Davis
Hotel that night and upon examination
by DIR. vilginius Harrison, was found to
be suffering from acute nephritis. On
Saturday night brain symptoms devel-
oped and he soon relapsed into state
of unconsciousness, from which he never
recovered. EIe was taken to the Re-
treat, where yesterday afternoon at 2:3O
O'Clock, Or, Harrison performed the OPP
GRAFTON OF decomposition, trephinlng the
skull to drain the brain. 1t was last
recourse, but 1t was unavailing, as the
young man never regained consciousness.

Little was known OF Rogers until a
letter was found In his pocket giving the
address of a young lady in Newport News
whom 1t developed lie was on. his way to

with, and at once came to Richmond With
a sister. She had met Mr., Rogers while
on a visit to Colorado, and the young

THE JEW ISH TLOOK

is religion Of life, activity and struggle.
When the author wants to make us
believe that "Herzl's program on the
Jewish state was accepted by the intel
lectual Jews Of Europe as the most eff
cent plan," we most emphatically deny
this false assertion. The least the author
could have done before making such mis-
leading statements would have been to
instruct himself before writing on a
question. Had he done so, he would
have convinced himself that the ''intel-
lectual Jews Of Europe" and America
have always looked upon Zionism as ii
scheme Of visionaries.
The author is still young. AS we
know him and mean it well with him
we would being older than he, sincerely
advise him to let for few years the
writing of fiction alone. Instead Of this
he would do well to study Jewish espe-
cially the Agadic and Midrashic' philo-
sophical and last but not least, the vast
literature of the Jewish Reform move
ment. We are satisfied that should he
devote a few years to these studies he
will, after perusal Of his Love of Zion,
be sorry that he ever wrote it.

National Jewish Hospital

Editorial from Corvallis, Ore, Gazette)
In this period Of business activity and
everlasting hustle for the almighty dol
lar there is danger that the commands
and precepts of the Almighty himself
will be forgotten, the wee, faint voice Of
conscience be stifled. Man owes to all
his kind duty which he should not at
tempt to escape when the debt must be
met 1t comes due in the form Of ale
waiting sorrow and suffering for your
distressed neighbOr- for all man
kind.
Nestled among the sublime mountains
of Colorado is an institution founded
and maintained by men and women Of
the highest intelligence, and whose lofty
aim is to fight and cure the "great
white plague the most appalling
sumption is an assured fact. This insti-
tuition has been working in a quiet way
for years and there is not one cent
charged patients, who by the misfortune
Of the dread malady are forced under
it's hospitable roof. 1t is absolutely free
to all who are poor and diseased. No
one is denied it's good Offices.
This is known as the "National Jewish
Hospital for Consumptives. Quoting
from it's bylaws we find the statement:
"There shall be no charge Of any kind
to any patient admitted to the hospital,
either for medical attendance, drugs or
for his care and maintenance while in
the hospital"
'"There is but this open sesame to
the sun-kissed and mountain-pillowed
hospital-poverty and disease.

The adjourned meeting of the execu-
tive board was held last Sunday at the
Phoenix club in Cincinnati, with very

Cincinnati, as president; Mr.. Harry Hart
Of Chicago, vice president; Mr.. Louis
Krohn, Cincinnati, (re-elected) treasur-
elected) secretary.
Mr.. Marcus Rauh Of Pittsburg, was
elected member Of the executive board.
The following congregations were re-
ported as having become members Of the
union since the previous meeting:
Temple Beth Israel Portland, Ore.
Beth Ell, Lincoln, Ills.
The board Of managers Of Synagog and
School Extension reported that they en-
tered into contract with Mr. S. M.
Goldsmith Of Detroit, Mich, for the
weekly publication Of a journal devoted
to religious schools and teachers, and the
contract was approved. The first num-
Der OF the new journal WILL probably not
be issued until the beginning Of the next
school year.
A board Of delegates on civil rights,
consisting Of fifty-four members, was
elected.
Mr.. Simon Wolf of Washington, D. c.,

''Herzl, for example, and his allies
are international diplomats. They pro-
jected the scheme Instantly on the pub
ication Of Herzl s book on the Jewish
state, his program was accepted by the
intellectual Jews of Europe as the most
efficient plan for the repossessiOn of our
ancient fatherland. In Germany, Aus
tria, England, France everywhere
throughout Europe, Jewish students
forego luxuries and enjoyments in order
to give freel y to the cause Of rebuilding
the fallen walls. Are we all fools? Zion
ism is no longer dream. The hope Of
regaining Palestine is a very real thing.
1t is the salvation of Israel, and when
you see the flag Of Israel-God s eternal
blue, striped with undimmed white,
making an unbroken background for
hope-then you, too, will be thrilled as l
have been, and fully realize to be born
Jew is divine privilege
The only sensible sentence in the whole
tedious story is the question Of the young
mans father: Is that what you learned
at Harvard?'' That the author Of the
silly story was disciple of DR.. Hirsch
accounts, perhaps, for the surprising
fact that such nonsense is published in
the 'Reform Advocate" The great
trouble with the author is that, as he
himself once with a certain bravado
deemed fit to point out that the Jewish,
especially the Past Biblical, Talmudical
and Midrashic literature is for him a
book seven-fold sealed, "Loh Am Haar-
ETY. Chassid," one ignorant Of Jewish
literature cannot be pious is an old ad-
age of the Talmud. But this saying ap-
plies with still greater force to a Reform
Rabbi A man ignorant Of Jewish lit
erature cannot be Reform Rabbi. One
who knows the Talmud and Jewish his
tory will not write down such nonsense
as that ''the Jew will never know what
true liberty means till he is firmly estab
lished in his own country The fact is,
however, that under the reign Of John
Hyrcan in Palestine, the Idumeans
were placed before the alternative either
to accept the Jewish religion or to emf
CRATE. A man who knows the ''Welt-
anschauung' of Judaism will not stul-
tify himself by penning such sentences
as the following: 81 am after life. 1
wish to live my Jewish life in peace, SO
that 1 may realize myself to sing the
Jewish psalms in the land where they
were written. A tent in the valley of
Jordan is sufficient. That is ALL need.'
Judaism is optimistic. 1t exclaims:
Earth is not desert (Tohu) but was
created to dwell therein. Ua-sheveth.) -

realizing something must be done,
brought the animal to DIR. Neimans
veterinary hospital for treatment. and
after making thorough examination
the doctor decided to operate. He first
inserted a treachotory tube SO as to
provide the animal with plenty of air
during the operation. An anesthetic
was administered and the facial bones
trephined to allow for the removal of
large tumor. which weighed one
pound, and unless complications arise,
the animal will make complete re-
covery.
