Jewish Millionaire in Berlin Suf-
fered Great Humiliation on
Account of Prejudice.
Feminine Member of Bleichroeder
Family Subjected to Grave
Embarrassment at Dance.

Hans Won Bleichroeder, who has
just passed away at Berlin, is not
the flnancier of that name, who was
so prominently mentioned in con-
nection with the suicide of Princess
Sophia of Saxe-Weimar few years
ago, but his father and namesake-.
that is to say, man of about O5 or
90 years of age. He was the son of
the Great Berlin banker, Bleichroe-
der, who played SO important a role
in the career of the first Prince Bis
marck
When, in 1865 and 1866, Bismarck
had such troubles with the Prussian
legislature that it cut off all sup
plies from the administration,
Bleichroeder came to the rescue of
the government and advanced $4O,-
100000 on the personal guaranteed
of Bismarck and fully realizing that
if Bismarck was over thrown and
lmpeached the banking house would
have the utmost difficulty in recov-
ering the money. In the war of
1870 Bleichroeder was Bismarck's
chief financial counselor, advised
him as to the amount of war indem-
nifty to be extorted from France,
and made all the necessary arrange
ments for it's payment. Bismarck,
indeed, regarded him as his most
precious ally, and continued to seek
his advice after the old banker had
become totally blind.
His son and successor, who has
just passed away, was no stranger
in America, and some twenty-five
or thirty years ago spent number
of months in New York, learning
American methods of business, pro-
ceeding afterwards to Mexico, where
the Bleichroeders had very large in
terests.

MMmMMmMMMMMMMMMW Observation-Disclosures
We often hear ourselves spoken of as
the Hebrew or Jewish race and some
of our racial characteristics are point
ed out and described. In what sense
can the term race" be applied to us?
We certainly are not special race
in the sense in which the red Indian
or the Monaghan forms a separate
race, l. e., a well-marked subdivision
Of humanity. We generally speak
Of five such races, the Negro, the
Malay and the Caucasian being the
other three Each one is distinguish
ed from the others by color of skin,
formation of skull and face, shape of
features and form of hair According
to this classification we Jews, as is
agreed by all, belong to the Cauca
sian race. The division of this race
into the Aryan and Semitic branches,
into the latter of which we are incor-
porated, is based purely on linguistic
grounds. Those whose languages
belong to the Aryan groups are class
ed as Aryans, and the others as Sem
ties.
But race is also used to denote a
people or group descended from
common stock, or common ancestry.
Thus we speak of the Irish race, the
Slavic race, etc. May we not for the
same reasons, and on the same
grounds speak of the Jewish race?
The implication is that such a group
has maintained the purity of its an
cestral blood, has received no foreign
elements, no adn1ixtures Whether
such group or people ever existed
in historic times, or exists now, a
people whose ancestral blood has
never been blended with that of other
stocks, is very questionable. In Our
case it certainly is not fact. .....
From the very beginning, as may be
seen from the Biblical records them
selves, the orr ginal Abrahanic or Is
raelitish clan received admixtures by
marriage from all the neighboring
tribes and nations. The noblest fam
lily in Israel, the Davidic, was of mix
ed ancestry, only half Israelitish.
During the Biblical period there was
constant infusion of Canaanitish,
Philistine and Egyptian blood, not to
speak of the peoples more closely re-
lated to the Israelites, such as the

Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites and
various Arab tribes.
AS a result of Ezra's reformatory
activities this process was checked,
and the leaders of the people became
more jealous for the purity of the
Jewish stock But they also became
more Jealous for the spread of the
knowledge of their God and His law,
which means the conversion of the
heather world The heather slave and
stranger who settled within their
gates in the end became proselytes and
members of the community. The
whole nation of the Idumeans was
torclbly converted, and the royal
house of Adiabene, and most likely
many of their subjects, embraced the
faith of Israel. The proselytes in
Rome and in the other large cities of
the Roman Empire were numerous
and conspicuous enough to evoke gen
eral comment. Machuza, one of the
four important Jewish centers of
Mesopotamia in Ta1mudic times, was
almost entirely peopled with descend
ants of former converts to Judaism,
among whom were the most noted
families of the city. Arabia had it's
Jewish Himyorite kingdom and other
tribes that professed Judaism during
the -Mohaminedan period. The
conversion Of the Khozars is fami1-
lar chapter in our history.
With SO much foreign blood inf1-
trated into the veins of Israel who
will maintain that we are of purer
stock than any other modern group,
whatever the value or merit of such
purity may be, and to that extent con-
slider us distinct race? The much
caricatured Jewish type is a pure fc-
ton, and although very many Jews
represent the Mediterranean type, all
other types of the brunettes and
and mixed are exemp1ifed by
Jews. A Jew is rather recognized by
a certain subtle, indefnable express
sion on his face, perhaps the impress
of ages of suffering and sorrow, rath-
er than by peculiar cast of features.
The Jews, therefore, cannot be said
to be race, in the strict sense of the
word. The bond that unites us is a
historic and ethical one; a common
past, and common purpose. The
Jew, whether native or adopted, is a

REVIEW OF
MAJESTIC BILL
One of the Seasons Finest Bills
For First Three Days.
of Week

Without reservation of any kind
one is safe in saying that the Majestic
bill for the first half of the week is
the best that has been seen in that
house for some time. For the whole
is comprised of just those things each
of which in an individual manner
please, and therefore so does the en-
tire bill. The Two Totos, novelty
equilibrists open the bill. Their work
while of novel character is ex-
tremely difficult, and most unusual.
Ethel May Hall g. Company present
farce "The Wrong Guy" which is
long laugh, a clever playlet, and q
postgraduate course in present day
slang. Edward Roberts and Joseph
Barrett start dramatically, so dramat-
ically that the nerves of the audience
are on edge waiting for the denoue-
ment, and then. but it would be a
shame to tell what then, just as it is
shame to put one over on the au-
dience as there two do. But they get
away with it and then they add some
more that keeps the audience right
with them and which brought them
the loudest and most continued ap-
plause of the show. THE Bride of the
Nile" finishes the bill with q little
comic opera, and, it5s a delight from
start to finish. There's plot that is
unusual, and there are voices of beau
tiful quahty, and staging that is far
above the ordinary standard. There's
not a dull minute in this last act, and
there's everything to be compliment

believes its findings and conclusions
to be free of prejudice toward or in
terest in any of it's phases.
THAT net result may well be eX--
pressed in the single statement that
since 1913 coal has advanced 81 ton
or approximately Is per cent.
''In 1916, due partly to wage dissen-
sions and new and more expensive
wage agreements, multitudinouS petty
strikes contrary to the wage agree
ments, scarcity of labor, higher wages,
uncertainty of supply, increased tax
alton, humane labor legislation, ad-
vanced costs of supplies in both the

royalties demanded by owners in re-
cent years, the excessive freight rates
in Pennsylvania and lastly but not un-
important, the expense to operators
and others of constant and extensive
investigation by the State and Gov
ernment, it is little wonder that the
operators have advanced the price
from 40 to so cents ton.
1.-THE same logic applies proportion
ately, at least to the independent ad-
vance of so cents a ton made by
the retailers.
This total advance of 81 ton, or
) per cent. on prepared sizes is there
fore, in the judgment of your COM
mission, due to many and varying
causes and hardly by the remotest rea-
soning chargeable to the item of State

alton might be presumed, from q unity
of results brought about, according to
the operators, by a similarity OF condi-
tions confronting them all, and it is

Report of State Commission

The commission to investigate the
increase in the cost of anthracite by

The commission held hearings in
Philadelphia, Scranton, Wilkes Barre,

of trade, retail coal dealers associa-
tions, coal operators and retail deal
ers in other cities.
Summarizing its report, the commits

Your commission is aware that the
analysis undertaken of the anthracite
coal situation is not without danger
to those investigating that situation,
due to impressions gathered from a
hasty survey of so vast an inquiry.
Much remains undone which could
have been done, and doubtless efforts
were fruitlessly expended in unneces-
