bow colors spread out in the heavenly
inspired Jacobs Dream" requires no
further statement to impress it with a
thoroughly Jewish conception Of the
world, marking it definitely as Jew
ish play in the realm of German liter
allure.
In his great work on Beer Hoffman,
Theodore Reik has the following to
say about Jacobs Dream:" "The las.
impression we gain after the reading
of the play is that it is creation
which could not be compared in its
grandeur Of thought and sentimen'
with anything but Goethe's Faust
We may be permitted to add And Ii
is withal the greatest dramatic work
created by Jew at any time"
No criticism and no reproduction
can adequately present the beauty
and greatness of this dramatic poem
which depicts essentially such a sim
pie fact as the flight Of Jacob from
Esau, and yet what poetic wealth 1t

BOLSHEvIKI DESCRIBED AS
JEWISH MASS-MURDERERS.

Berlin (By |. ]. P. B.)-The anti
Semitic daily, "Deutsche Tageszei-
tung," published in this city, prints
a highly colored interview Of one OF
its correspondents with an office VI
the general staff in the army of the
anti-Bolshevik chief, Wrangel, who
describes the successes of WrangePs
policy, speaks very extensively Of his
chiefs proposed regeneration Of Rus
STA, and winds up his interview by de-
claring that Wrange's principal OBJ
ject in starting his anti-Bolshevik
drive was to visit exemplary punish
ment on the Bolsheviki, who are
merely Jewish mass-murdercrs in
disguise"

will be enough to state that because
Beer-Hoffman had thus far produced
so little in quantity, he was until now
unknown and suddenly, after a long
wait we perceive Jacobs Dream"
and the entire German field Of review
ers praise Beer-Hoffman's genius,
the principal theatres Of Germany,
like Vienna's Burgthater and Rein
harris theatre in Berlin, claim share
of the tribute by pointing out that
they were first to put it on the stage.
The well-known German female dra-
matte critic, Miss Widman, writes,
ut is possible that German history
will say some day: In that year Of
German disaster, when broken-up
Austria sought to unite with its Ger
man brothers, a Vienna poet wrote
the most powerful poem of the period,
embodying the full tragedy Of relig-
ious longing, the German mystery
play, Jacobs Dream" Jacobs
Dream" appeared in book form ia
1918. Is it German? Is it Jewish?
Jacobs Dream" is but the first
part of a historical trilogy, "The His
tory Of "King David" In his preface
to the two acts of the drama, the poet
says that he had written it a long
time ago but refused to give it over to
print. The circumstances Of the time.
he says, have compelled him to pub
lish it. We can readily guess what
those circumstances were,-it simply
means the anti-Jewish excuses. When
| saw Beer Hoffman some 3 months
ago, he had already completed 17Oc
lines of his new trilcgy. And when l
told him that we were impatiently
waiting for his great Jewish drama
he was almost ashamed to answer:
"All | wanted to say from the purely
Jewish point of view, have said III
Jacobs Dream The rest Of the tri-
logy will be universally human"
Is Jacobs Dream" German or is II
Jewish?
Is the entire Jewish problem Q
Jewish one or is it one Of humanity a.
a whole?
Recurring to Reik, / want to say;
"Not Jacob,-one who had struggle
with the Lord, Israel is he!"
Those are the concluding words OF
the drama and the finale Of Jewisl
mission to humanity!
And yet we wait impatiently for the
great Jewish drama Of Richard Beer
Hoffman.

There will be no trouble in get ting the crowd here. San Diego now has a direct railroad line to the east which passes through Tiajuana. Those coming from the north will take other lines or steamships or automo piles.
 '&aturally I should like to have the fight in the summer time. when. we can be absolutely sure that the wealth CT will be good. But the date must depend largely on what the boxers themselves say about it.
 The division of the money is an other question the boxers must decide. That it will be the greatest match the world has known at least in point of interest, is certain. Ii is more than national: it is more than racial. Everyone knows of Carpentier partly from his war fame; everyone has q good idea of what Dempsey can do.

FISK RED TOPS BEATEN
ChiCOpec Tir'Cmakcrs Arc Practically Eliminated as champions of the In- tcr,tatc Basketball League.

tcr,tatc Basketball League.
 ThompSonillc, Jan. 1-Thc Fisk
 Red Tops chances of carrying off the
 interstate basketball league title are now very remote. For the third time
 they fell before the Bigelow-Har lords here last night. At the finish the
 finish the score was 25 to 11. and this
 makes the third setback for the Tops.
 In the absence of, Johnny. Beckman
 "Chief'' Mueller was the big man for
 the winners. The speedy right for
 ward only cagcd two from the floor,
 but he tossed in nine fouls, during the
 game. Grimstead, playing center for the home team. and "Yump' Johnson.
 taking Becknan's place at left for
 ward, hooped three each. Grimstead
 played great floor game. and two of
 his shots were features. while both the
 backs McMillan and Suils. were prett,,-
 nearly alright on the defense. The Tops were up against something muct better than they were. Jus :s in the other time the teams met in T-ville the score Was much closer than when they clashed on the F'isks' court. It is evidently the difference in the size of the floors that makes the difference in the size of the scores. for though the Tops were again outplayed from the start, the score was relatively close.
 , They put up a battle at every turn, but they could not win: they never had a chance to win. The Big-Harts are an altogether superior outfit to anything in the circuit, and are fast making runa way race of it. When the Tops are up against anything in their own class they play unit but every time they meet the Big Harts they immediately become live individuals. trying to get started, but trying in vain.
