Drowsiness or Custom House Men FIX plained When Cocoanuts Were
 Examined

Officers, clerks and janitors em- house have Cor the last few days been suffering from strange attack re- ,embling the dreaded sleeping sick ness, and the symptoms were becom- ing so accentuated that the matter was getting to be serious, until this morning a sack Of cocoanuts ad- dressed to a Chinaman at San Anto nio. Tex, was hauled out into the cor ral of the custom house for more con venient keeping.
 The sack of cocoanuts arrived by eX press from Tampico by way of Mon terey several days ago and had not been called for.
 Tho express messenger, baggage master and postal clerk, all of whom occupy the same car, were last asleep when the train pulled into the station. The express messenger was lying with his head upon the sack and was the most difficult of the three to awaken.
 When it was found that they were not drunk examination of the contents of tie sack was made and 1t was found that one of the cocoanuts was merely the shell, the space within con. taining opium. The sack was seized by the authorities on the Texas side of the river and was thrown carelessly into 8 corner of the office room. IL will from now on, however, be stored in the yard until it is disposed of through the usual methods Herald,

JEWISH LITERARY
SOCIETY

1t is surprising that in this city
there are people who, at this late
date, place before you the query as to
the purpose, aim and object of the
Jewish Literary Society after it's use
fulness and success have been estab-
lished beyond the question of even a
reasonable doubt, and that still by some
it is not understood or rather by
some people it is misunderstood.
1t was organized in community
in which live three thousand Jewish
people, for the purpose Of giving to
the Jewish boys and girls place
where they might assemble, where an
exchange of thought might be indulg-
ed in, where open expression on all
subjects might be heard where they
might receive the benefit of research
by others and desire created within
them to enter into the work and not
only improve the society, but improve
themselves; a place where the boys
might eventually be taught to congre-
gate and indulge in wholesome read
ing and offering surroundings suf
by taking the place Of the sidewalks
and other harmful amusements indulg-
ed in by the average youth of today
With it's object of promoting cul-
ture and character, it stands as the
representative of all that is best in
Jewish thought. 1t stands for the
young men and young women, that
they might improve and be benefited
by association that through that as
sociation there might be a sufficient
interest in the working of the society
which would but result in improvement
OF the mind and body placing it as
properly representative of Jewish
thought and entitled to Jewish support
whether they be orthodox or reform
The society, in it's infancy though
it be, has proven itself worthy and
has established itself, and those who
have taken active interest therein, it
has filled with enthusiasm; but So
ciety with so noble a purpose, so high
an aim and SO successful for the short
time of it's existence, demands more,
it demands that all might be acquaint-

might understand it's benefits. and re-
ceiving, as it does, the endorsement
of it's leaders in religious thought it
should have combined with that in
dorsement all high-minded, we'll think
ing people in this city.
The name of the society would i'm
ply literary activity only, but this mis-
sion Having been successful under
that name it is but natural that it will
be guarded by those who feel that to
change the name would be detrimental
to the society and destroy even the at
tachment borne by members to it. But
after all, it is the purpose, object and
result which is more than mere name.
This society not only seeks to improve
the mind, but the body, to provide
place where the members might
strengthen the body by exercise and
by such development add to our
citizenship At the present time there
is little activity in physical improve
ments because space will not permit,
and nearly every week parties are led
out into the open country for walks
of ten and fifteen miles under proper
Nv authorized leaders of the society.
BY some it is suggested that meet
ings could be held in the homes of
the members without even requiring
the expenditure of any sums whatever
for rent and other necessary expenses,
but such suggestions fail when it is
realized that with a membership of
200, think of 1.-TWO hundred Jewish
boys and girls, men and women, who
not only need more room, who not on
ly need a home, but who demand of the
people mo1 3 than the mere name of
society. Who have proven the right
to make such demand by making the
society worthy of the people it rep
resents.
Realizing this, and realizing that the
quarters occupied are inadequate for
the demands of the society, it has be-
come necessary to prepare and pave
the way for a permanent home A
place where it's members may congre-
gate and feel that they are part and
narcnl of ON nroa nj 2 tinn of sufficient

says: SIN February, 1905, gave testimonial
for publication and in it stated that had used
Doans Kidney Pills, procured at the City Drug
Store, with the most satisfactory results. can

remedy than ever. About year ago had
return attack of kidney trouble and my kid
neys became so weak that it was common
thing for me to get up six or seven times at
night to pass the secretions. l also had more
or less backache As before, Doan's Kidney

kidney secretions and relieved the backache.

After battling with heavy seas and high
wind for the greater part of Friday night, the
revenue cutter Gresham with the disabled
schooner, N. E. Aver in tow and the ship
wrecked crews of the schooners Abbie G. Cole
and S. A. Fownes on board arrived in Prov
incetown harbor early last Saturday The
captain of the Aver, A. B. Mazrall of Belfast,
and her crew, were almost completely exhaust
ed and all were more or less frostbitten when
they arrived. Capt. Mazrall said that the
Aver bound from South Amboy for Mt
Desert Ferry with coal. The schooner left
Vineyard Haven on Wednesday in company
with large fleet of coasters and tows. Dur
ing Thursday night in gale and binding snow
storm the Aver anchored off Chatham but her
anchors dragged and signals of distress were
set. On account of the tremendous seas the
lfesavers of the Chatham Old Harbor station
were unable to render any assistance to the
schooner, as no boat could be launched through
the breakers that were piling up on the beach.
In the meantime the were breaking over
the Aver and the water and flying spray froze
