Christian View of "The
Wandering Jew"

The figure OF AhaSueruS, VINO every
hundred years of his life becomes young
again. and sets out on his unending pill
grimage over the earth, appears IN al
most every European literature, says Ed
-uard Koenig, in The Nineteenth Century
and After Nondon, June) This writer
attempts to account for the origin OF
this myth or legend and cites first OF all
the earliest European narrative of 1.-The
Wandering jew" published in the sew
ententh century and entitled, ga Brief
Description and Tale of Jew by name
Ahasuerus, who was present in person
at the Crucifxion of Christ, who, more
over, shouted with the rest Cruelty
Him! Cruelty Him! and instead Of de-
string his acquittal, desired that of Bar
abbas, the murderer; but after the Cru
cifixion was never able to return to Jer-
usalem, also never saw his wife and chill
dren again, has remained alive ever
since. and came to Hamburg few years
ago. Professor Koenig begins by dis
tinguishing between the terms Hlegend"
and "myth.'' He defines legend as
story founded on some actual occur
renee, and a myth as story. embodying
some abstract idea or principle He
asks:
els, then, the 1902 narrative a myth?
tThe idea that the Jewish people were
soon after the Crucifxion (and, indeed,
as result Of that event), driven from
their homes, to become wanderers on the
face of the earth, may easily have been
crystallized into concrete tale. The
significant words of the bearer of the
cross to the women of Jerusalem, DO
not lament for me; lament for your
selves and for your children might
easily be developed into a tale of the
miserable fate of one native Of Jerusalem
as the representative of the people of
Jerusalem We should then have before
us the material husk Of truth equally
concerned with the history of religion
and of civilization
He thinks it possible however, that a
real Wandering Jew" may have ap-
peared at certain times and places, where
some individual took upon himself that
title and character. In the words Of
Professor Koenig:
GA representative like Ahasuerus of
the people of Israel might occasionally
present himself That many self-judg
ing soul of the people of Israel should
adopt his point of view is by no means
Incredible Some quiet thinker among
the scattered tribes Of Israel might have
taken the conduct Of the Jews toward
Jesus so deeply to heart that at the
thought he beat his breast and sighed
for a way of reconciling the attitude of

longing to the homeless, scattered ma
ton of Israel, who wandered through
generations from place to place, might
actually feel himself to be the represen-
tative of his nation; he might throw HIM
self back into the past so eagerly that
he might consider and speak OF their
former relations to Jesus, the bearer OF
the cross, and the homelessness which
was the Immediate consequence, as II
they were his own personal conduct and
personal fate. The personificatlon OF the
people Of Israel, and the strong bond
that unites the later generations OF Is
rael with the earlier, is constantly seen
in the liveliest colors in the religious
literature of the nation. How often is
the nation mentioned as the slave of the
Lord (Isa XII. 81, and in Psalm Xiv,
IA, 16, Israel says: Thou makest us a
by-word among our neighbors,' and
again, All the day long is my dishonor
before me. ="
The story Of the Wandering Jew may
also be considered to embody the idea OF
Jewish repentance for the treatment
dealt out to Jesus This was combined
with dread of divine vengeance, which
at the beginning of the seventeenth cen
tury was deepened by conviction that
the end of the world was near. TO quote
further:
cit is quite possible that the consci-
ence of Israel, which in many a silent
soul regretted the conduct Of the nation
toward Jesus, had here and there mani
tested itself in wanderer, at least in
gesture and attitude. His sighs may
have rendered audible the undertone
which perhaps vibrated in many heart
during tb~ conventional cursing on the
occasion OF the Purim Festival. :.
At the end of the sixteenth century and
during the transition of the seventeenth
century. men firmly believed-a fact en-
phatically stated at the end of the 1902
book-that the Day of Judgment and
the end Of the world were at hand. With
that particular time, according to the an
cient Christian expectation, turning
point in the fate of Israel was combined
from. XII. 25 ff). Who can assert that
in such times, and in some Israelitish
hearts, it was impossible a powerful
longing may not have awakened for de-
liverance from the burdensome oppres-
sion of Israel which had lasted through
so many centuries? May not the desire
have become implanted in the hearts Of
some that the long-lasting national mis-
fortune might be removed if the jarring
relations Of Israel to Jesus underwent>a a

In the olden time a woman in the
north of Scotland went to visit her
husband, who was condemned to be
hanged upon the following day. The
man began to give his last instruct tons
to his wife preparatory to bidding her
farewell when all Mt once she broke in
on the conversation and exclaimed

This Ruling Passion.

4 celebrated musical critic was mar
ried in church some years ago, and
after the ceremony, as the wedding
procession marched down the aisle, the
organist played the wedding march
from "Lohengrin. When near the
door, the bridegroom stopped in the
march and addressed the wondering
assembly thus: HI
81 know I am committing a breach
Of etiquette as well as propriety in
doing this, but am not to blame. II
is my mental organization which has
become inefably sensitive by reason
of the critical nature of my duties.'
Then he drew from the pocket of his
dress coat a well thumbed copy of the
score of "Lohengrin." Opening it al
the march. he went over to the organist
and said:
What offended my ear was the fact
that in the seventeenth bar of the da
eapo passage you fatted very badly
and in the andante movement you
slurred the appoggiatura. Now" put
ting his finger upon the passage, ''lei
us try that again.
Once more the organ pealed forth
and this time the player, conscious
that the great critic was listening t
him, accomplished his duty with credit
to himself and to the great satisfac
ton Of the critic. London Standard. a

Two Strenuous Lives.

Clovis Hughes, the French journalist.
poet and duelist, filled his fifty five
years of life with SUFFICIENT excite
ment to make him worthy of special
mention. One of his claims to distinc-
ton was that he had engaged in q
French duel which resulted fatally
for the other man. He was a tenn
pestuous radical and was once sus
pended from the chamber of deputies
for insulting remarks to the president,
which did not at all curb him. He
wrote number Of novels, poems and
plays in which he sought to spread
socialistic uganda, and he wrote a
pretentioHs five act drama in verse
called lie Sommeil de Danton'' ('sThe
Sleep of Danton'D, which was produced
at the Opera Comique. His wife con-
tributed her share Of excitement by
killing public official in the palace
of Justice because of an alleged insult.
Before she was tried she wrote and
acted ia Vegeance de Nine. Clovis

sational act and represented her as
triumphantly exonerated by the court
When her trial came the court did as
predicted Springfield Repub lican.

snaiIs and Plump Mutton.

1 Most people would be Mortified to
learn that the finest mutton in the
world comes from sheep fattened on
snails,n says a large breeder Of South
down sheep. quoted In the London
Mai. 9 Nevertheless 1t lis a fact. In
seasons when snails are plentiful the
mutton from cur sheep has delicious
flavor which 1t never acquires from the
most scientific form Of feeding. On the
continent a diet of snails is a regular
cure Tor consumption and Is said to
fatten and nourish the body Ia a won
derful way. There is q popular super
sstition that the unique and delicate
flavor OF Southdown mutton Is due
largely to the quantity of wild thyme
which they crop with the grass In their
pastures. But personally give the
5snails the greater part OF the credit for
the soft, plump flesh and the sweetness
sof flavor in our celebrated sheep. So
much Is this the case that the saying.
Good snail year. good sheep year has
become almost d proverb among shep.

THE KITCHENETTE.

If is not exactly a labor saving de-
vice. but an arrangement that is IN
tended to meet the needs of those who
live in apartments and want to do at
least a part of their own cooking.
1t is a tiny room, something larger
than a closet, something decidedly
smaller than a kitchen. The convent
ences consist of a gas stove and an
Zoe chest. 1t obviously is simple and
ccmpact. Its possibilities are limited;
one could not do much within it, but
enc could. on the other hand, prepare
the simple breakfasts and luncheons.
MANY Of the expensive hotels in New
York house people who practice all
sorts of petty economies in order to
nav their room rent. The kitchenette
idea was intended largely to meet the
needs of such tenants. At all events
it was first applied to apartments OF
considera bic cost-apartmentS whose
rent was so high that the tenants
might well afford to rent larger apart
ments or buy their meals in the hotel
restaurant.
But there is a charm about cookery
10 those who need not work. The fair

But he's quite a great deviser, and sur

For we went and spent a day with him

And he did it we'll. the Kaiser did-he
was fairly lone of us!"
