The Dram-Shop in Russian Politics

quests have been sent to the govern
ment to close the dram-shops before
it is too late. But the minister of
finance in his latest circular, declares
that it is actually necessary to in
erase the number of places for the sale
of drink, and that no restriction
should be placed upon fresh dram
shops being opened in the towns and
villages. The government finds it
doubly profitable to spread its vodka
among the population-fnancially.

brought into its Golfers (the excise
revenue increased from $50 million
roubles in 1897 to some 500 million
roubles in 1909, and politically, be-

makes poor material for revolution.
In other words, the government
which displaced the Jewish liquor
seller is curse ten-fold more de-
structive than ever the Jew was al
legged to be: and the result is seen
in the enormous increase in the eases
of suicide. Something of the same

Father Of England's Jewish Reform Cele-

Last week the Rev. Professor Marks
of London entered his ninety-seventh

community to which he has rendered
conspicuous service. The part he
bore i'm the communal struggles of a
former generation belongs so en-
tirely to the history of the past that
there must he few living persons who
can recall it from personal memory.
It is familiar to the student of Anglo
Jewish history, but the public at
large have only a vague idea of the
immense influence for good which this
grand old man has exercised in the
course of an exceptionally long life.
The extraordinary eloquence of his
preaching is probably still fresh in
the recollection of his congregants.
Mr.. Marks was. however. much more

The Jewish Home for Con-

The Jews of Baltimore broke ground
last Wednesday for Jewish Home
for Consumptives. Mr.. Jacob Ep-

work for its completion will be rap

commodate twenty-four patients and
is planned for a total of seventy-five

It is noteworthy that the example
set by Mr. Epstein in giving 25,OOO

were introduced mt the outset Mean
while. orthodox congregations have
benefited by the reform movement
which impelled them to put their
house in order and set them the ex-

have gradually adopted. In the twi-
light Of his old age it must be a graft
fication to the aged minister Of the
West London synagogue, when he re-
fleets upon his life-work, to contrast
the antagonism he encountered in his
early years with the general esteem
in which he is now held. May such
happy reflections be his to enjoy for
many years yet to come.

That there IS hell somewhere we
are told by theologians-n so much
now, it is true, as it used to be told
in former times-but some still keep
it up, and it has become deeply rooted
in the minds of some. who without
giving thought to self inquire as to
where hell is-they simply believe
that it surely is somewhere.
What is hell? 1t is place, to be
sure, where unbelieving souls go to,
there to roast. burn. fry and suffer
the tortures of fire and birthstone.
How do we know? Why. theolo-
gians have been teaching and preach
ing it long enough that by this time
we ought to know it. How do theo-
logians know it! The English Bible
mentions hell and hell-iire. but it says
not where it is and under what con-
dition it exists.
The Hebrew language has no words
for hell and devil-translators read it
into the Bible. God did not create

Amos. there are worse punishments

will take from hell those that dig
their way into it for conceamcnt. and
give them severcr punishment (see
Amos iX.. 34O.
Solomon makes hell and dcstruc-
tion 90 together. and he makes the
bad woman lead her house down to

which we infer that good woman
makes her house II heaven. The truth
is. that angels and devils are human

The defense today rested in the trial Of

plicity in the assassination of William
Goebel. The prosecution began rebuttal
testimony few minutes la,er. The pro-
ceedings today were mainly devoted by
the defense to breaking town the tes-
timony Of Noakes and Golden. and for
this purpose they introduced several wit
nesses, chief of whom was Attorney W.
r. Jewell of Danville. ILL.,, who testified
that Noakes made his Danvllie statement
in the presence of himself and Attorney
Max Lewis. but refused to sign it unless
paid to do so. He also stated that nothing
was said to Noakes about a statement
being wanted to secure new trial for
Powers, this directly contradicting
Noakes.

emit, testified that Wharton Golden said
Henry Youtsey's confession appeared in
the newspapers: That (mean-
ing Youtsey) is talking too much He
won't get cent l had that fixed, or

The court admonished the jury that this
evidence only affected the credibitily of

the state auditor to bring LIS books and
to show how much of the $780, 900 Goebel
