The Jewish herald. (Houston, Tex.) 1908-1914, 1909-03-12

Due to the exclusiveness of our
race, prejudice and want of informa-
ton on the part of authors, the Jew
in fiction does not figure as hero.
We are not struck with his polish
ed speeches, his knightly bearing, his
brave stand in the face of the enemy,
or the grandeur of his sentiments.
With the exception of Sir Walter
Scott, George Eliot and possibly a
few others, no Christian author had
thought it worth while to study the
Jew and present him truly.
His virtues have been minimizsd
and his faults magnified and every
peculiarly stressed. Not caring to
go below the surface the Christian
authors, did not seem to know tina!
the best and most interesting things
are hidden from view, and that the
Jews are really a race of thinkers
and enthusiasts.
Instead, however, the Jew in fic-
ton is either an usurious money lend
er or engaged in some mercantile un-
dertaking and making larger profits
than could consistently accrue from
the capital invested.
Shylock, the type of the money lend
err was drawn from hearsay rather
than observation. 1t is doubtful
whether Shakespeare ever saw a
Jew. Dickens, the creator of Fagin,
admitted that he had, had no original
for that character. The sketches of
the Jews wife and family do not
compliment them either. The child
rem are often pictured as rebelling
and ashamed of the faith of their
fathers.
! Among the Jews are the types men
toned. We have the merchants and
the money lender. But it is strictly
an injustice to say that these types
characterize our race. No more thar
the Yankee represents the American
neither does the Jew of fiction re
present the Jew.
So it has been left to one of ou
own race to portray us and perhap
that is best. For who could depic
clearly or more sympathetically thai
one of our own kind!
Israel Zangwill, who has been cal
ed the unrivalled exponent of tn
modern Jew, first drew the attent;1
of the public by his short cha"acte
sketches, Later he came under th

''7Ae Children Of the Ghetto"
Read before the Beth ls Literary SoceyBy Miss Sarah SeGa

notice of the Jewish Publication So
ciety of America, who requested him
to write a novel on modern Jewish
life.
The result was called the Children
of Ghetto" being the pictures of
peculiar people. This book was his
first real success. 1t was translated
into German, Yiddish and parts of it
into Hebrew.
The plot of the children of the
Ghetto is a very slender one. 1t is
a story of character rather than of
interesting situations. Not enough
plot, but too much character portrait
ture, were some of the adverse crit
icisms when the book came out. The
critic did not seem to realize that
lit is not story of they lived happy
ever after" kind.
The book consists of mass of hui
man interest as varied in its fun and
sadness as life itself.
This is the story in brief. Ephraim
Phillips invited his friends to the re-
demption of his first born. Among
the guests were Sam Levine, the
chosan of Leah, and Hannah Jacobs,
daughter of Reb Shemuel. While the
company were at the table, Sam with
a dramatic gesture, held up the ring
he had bought for Leah. Teasingly
he put the ring on Hannahs finger
and repeated the Hebrew formula, he
had learned for his marriage.
Behold thou art consecrated unto
me by this ring according to the Law
of Moses and Isreal."
'"The company thought it good joke
and laughed heartily. In the midst

50-CENT REDUCTION
 IN PRICE OF COAL

(HeArst News Special to the Graphic.)
 New York. March 3o.-A desire to win the favor of public sentiment In the event of 6 coal strike Is said to have prompted the reduction 50 cents per ton, announced today by the Coal Merchants Association.
 The operators now have 12,0o0,00o tons above the ground, but much of it Is what Is known as "rusty and dirty" some of it having been above ground for two or three years.
 The white mine owners want to get rid of this, as they do not intend to sell all coal at the low prices of this months scale. As much as possible is to be held for later months when the price, which advances from now on at the rate of 10 cents a ton a month, will be something like 40 cents ton higher than at present. By that time, it Is expected, if a shutdown has been ordered, the men wi1l be starved out.
