SHYL0CK AND NATHAN
 THE WISE COMPARED
Fine Lecture at the Temple Last Night by Rabbi Abram Brill, of Greenville, Miss.-Dr. Britt
 to Lecture April 4.

Rabbi Abram Brill, of Greenville, Miss, was the lecturer last night at the Temple, the number being the fifth of the Temple Lyceum course. He spoke on the subject, "Shylock and Nathan The Wise, A Contrast" <" A large and appreciative audience listened to his masterly estimate of the Merchant of Venice" and Les- sings great play in which the wise and wealthy Jew, Nathan, is por- trayed as typical of the race. The
 speaker maintained that Shakespeare really presented two different and un- like characters Tn the one personality of 6hylock. On the one hand, he
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1910-03-23

yielded to the prejudice of the mas ses, of Sixteenth Century England, endowing the character of Shylock with disagreeable qualities such as greed, cruelty and vengeance, thus satisfying their inborn dislikes of the Jew; though as a matter of fact there were no Jews in England then. On the other hand, Shakespeare's personal opinion concerning the Jew was to be read between the lines. The Jew or Shylock, maligned and humiliated by his neighbors and driv- en to worse despair by the elopement and conversion of his daughter, Jes- sica, falls back on the natural hu- man course of actiOn-revenge.
 However intensely human and therefore natural as many of Shy locks traits are, he is still a carica- ture rather than a type. The typical Jew in literature is rather to be found in the German poet, Lessing's Nathan the Wise." This character is based on real life, that of Moses Mendelssohn, the gentle and wise philosopher of Berlin, whom Leasing admired and loved as a friend. He ] is broadminded enough to permit a Knight Templar to court his adopted l Christian charge. He breaches to his sons by the famous story of the ring that a mans religion is not to be valued by the professions it makes, but ny the practices that are the fruit ct those professions.
 Dr. Brill is a young man of great promise. a.ready gifted with the pow CT of speech to a marked degree. This his seco2,l visit to this city, has add
 ed to lis hosts of local admirers The next number under the Lyceum course will be Rabbi Louis Witt, of
 Little Rock, who will substitute Rab-
 bi L. J. Rothstein, of Alexandria, the
 latter being unable to come here at this season of the year. Dr. Witt will speak on 'SThe Story of the Mes siah". He comes on Monday night, April 4.

LET US eEsrIR OURSELVES

The matter Of stray cows pasturing
at free will on the beautiful lawn of
the courthouse was taken up by the
board of county commissioners at its
late meeting and it was decided that
unless this stock was restrained and
kept off the grass and flowers Of this
pleasing spot by our people, the board
would discontinue the car of the
court house premises and erect there
on hitching posts for the use of the
county at large There it is. 1t is up
TO the municipality Of the Brick City
TO get busy and see that these depre-
dations cease, or the court house
yard with it's clean, neat and attrac-
tive adornments will cease to be
thing of beauty and JOY to our peo-
pie, who appreciate and value TINS
beauty spot" so highly. The attrac-
tive appearance of the court house
lawn has been a very valuable asset
to this town and no stranger comes
here but what he carries away very
pleasing picture of the city and speaks
approvingly to others about the man
ner in which Ocala looks after this
desirable spot. Are we to lose its
beauty and forfeit the good opinion Of
the hundreds of strangers who seeing
it and approaching the same adver'
tise it's attractions 20 the outside
world? Let us hope not. We canno
afford to retrograde, but on the con
trary must advance along lines tina
mean a cleaner healthier, prettie
town than ever. 1t is a sentiment tina
it pays to cultivate. Let the Woman,
Club take up the matter.

From the proceedings of the county
commissioners we learn that the cleo
ton in precinct No g. which is Sum
merfeld. on the hog question resulted
in favor of a free range for hogs by a
vote of Is to II. The range is too de-
sirable to those who own hogs in that
section and it includes about every
body in it. to let SO bOuntiful supply
60 to waste. But from the present in
fiux of settlers in that section it will
not be long ere this sentiment will
change, and the hog will be barred
from promiscuous range.
