l have been giving these facts to
undermine the universal superstition
that the Jew is only trader. He has
succeeded also in medicine, in the
arts and in the law; in fact, he has
made his mark in all the professions.
Perhaps anothe" reason why the
Jew is successful is the fact that he Is
one of the longest Lived of all the

secuton he comes forth unharmed.

When Israel ZaEgwlll was asked
"Why have the Jews succeeded -
(wrote Mr.. Edward Lauterbach re-
Gently in The Herald Magazine) he
replied that they had not succeeded,

there could there be found Il solitary

This list was compiled in 1904. four

1t is also significant that there are

many of these have but lately emerged

passed over a portion of Alabama
found 16-ycar-old boy named Albert
1Iorsford driving along the highway in
buggy He heard and saw the storm
coming. but could not get out OF its
way. He remembers being picked up
and whirled round and round, and the
next thing he knew he was in the
river and hanging to the horses tail.
The horse and hoy landed on the
bank, but when the buggy and the gro
ceries in it were searched for they
could not be found. The harness had
been blown off the horse, and the

Attacked i'm her Bedroom.

Mount Holly, N. j., March 81. Resi-
dents of Vincentown are aroused over
the attack alleged to have been made
by William Pitman upon Mrs. Mary
Dobbins at her home last Sunday morn
ing, the facts of which have just be-
come known. Mrs. Dobbins was in her
bedroom preparing for church, when,
it is charged, Pitman, who is rela-
tive, entered the house and walked into
the room. He explained that he had
seen a mink along the creek and had
come to borrow her steel trap No
sooner had she informed him that she
did not own steel trap and turned
around than Pitman seized her by the
throat. Later Mrs. Dobbins appeared
before Squire Brown, exhibited the
young. mans finger prints on her neck
and made complaint upon which only
an assault and battery charge could be
based. Pitman was arrested and he
gave bail for arfurther hearing.
The officials believe that there is a
more serious charge in the case than
has yet been made known to them by
Mrs. Dobbins, and they will make a
thorough investigation.
