POGROMS IN GERMANY.

The prediction that the ter
rible anti-Semitic propaganda in
Germany will lead to pogroms
against German Jewish citizens,
laughed at by some, has come
true. A copyrighted dispatch to
the Chicago Tribune of February
9th, contains this disheartening
This afternoon Berlin experien-
ced the first pogrom in its history.
Hundreds of university and upper
school students armed with clubs
and stones, raided the Jewish Sec
tion and then invaded Kurfursten-
damenstrasse, which is the richest
street in Germany. Hundreds of
Jews were attacked and many
beaten.
The police, having been fore
warned, arrived in auto trucks.
They were led by Prussian Off
GERS, who did not attempt to stop
the students, but pulled the VIC
tins into trucks. When a number
Of students jumped onto these
trucks and attacked the Jews, who
were already unconscious and
bleeding, the officers asked the
students to confne their activities
to the streets.
II is estimated several hundred
Jews were beaten. A score were
taken to hospitals, where two are
reported dying tonight. The DEM
onstration is considered one Of the
first results of the reactionary
victory in the Prussian elections,
which aims to re-establish the
old monarchists' regime.
To the many sins that are to
be charged to the German reac.
tionaries, is to be added the one
of killing its own citizens. What

tory of the Jewish Chautauqua,
the annual meeting is to be held
in the Southwest. Dallas, Texas,
is to be the scene of the next AS
sembly, in December. Miss jean
nette Miriam Goldberg, a Texas
girl, by the way, and Executive
Secretary of the Institution, is
now travelling through Oklaho-
ma, Texas, and Arkansas, organ
izing the communities with a
view to sending delegations to
the meeting. We know of moth
ing that will stimulate Sabbath
school work and religious inter-
est in general, more than attend
ance at the Chautauqua meet
ings, and we know the spirit of
the great Southwest well enough
to feel that this meeting will be
one of the largest in the history
of the organization.
We, in this part of the land, are
rather distantly removed from
the current of Jewish life; to
bring down men like Drs. Berko-
WITT and Rosenau, and many of
the younger and less well-known
men, as well as teachers who
have become known specialists
in Sabbath School work, will be
a priceless boon to those who are
interested in Jewish education.
The program for this session has
not yet been completed, but the
preliminary plans presage one of
the finest gatherings Of rabbis
and teachers that has ever been
assembled in the land. And the
fine thing about the program is
that it will be of highest value
not only for those of the Reform
wing of Judaism, but for the
Conservative, as well.
We are looking forward to a
record-breaking assembly. The
Southwest has never been given
an opportunity to show what it
can do along nationwide Jewish
lines; out of the whole South
west, not more than half dozen
men have been given recognition
in national organizations. Let
the folks from the North and
East come down here and get &C
quainted with us. We will show
them some thing-we will learn
many things, and a closer union
will be affected between the Jew
ish forces here and there.
Miss Goldberg should be
heartily welcomed wherever she
goes-for her own sake as well
as for that of the institution she

bruised. The camp officials announc-
ed a list Of fifteen men who were
injured.
The stands were built for the en-
tire regiment to assemble on While
a picture was being taken OF the out-
fit. Only sveral companies had got
ten on the stand when the accident
happened.
A creaking sound was heard, but
before all those on the stand could
return to the ground it collapsed
carrying many down with It.
Owing to the hospital facilities OF
the camp not being adequate to care
for the more seriously injured, Jonn
L. Sullivan, chief cook Of the Eighth
Company; Fred Moyle, Of the Sixth
Company, and Alfred Post were
taken to the Homeopathic Hospital
Wilmington. The first two were dis
charged and able to return to duty
yesterday.
The injuries received by Post were
considered serious enough to keep
him at the Wilmington hospital He
was injured about the legs and
arms. Post also sustained fracture
of the right leg.
The accident took place at about
11.3O o'clock Saturday morning. The
men were just getting on a grand
stand to have their pictures taken
when 1t fell with the weight. The
commissioned and non-commission-
ed officers were not on the stand
when it collapsed.

with this plan the public was re-

Following this meeting. members
of Council expressed the fear that
an attempt on the part of the city
to operate the plant in its present
condition would needlessly involve
the city in the event of a law suit,
and that it would be better for the
Nye Company to do all the testing.

A 7-ton Ahrens-Fox engine belong
ing to New Castle slid into ditch at
the side of lane leading from the
Basin road to the farm buildings.
Then a REQ chemical machine from
Newport tried to pass it, but slipped
into the ditch on the opposite side,
blocking the lane. The apparatus was
finally lifted back onto the roadway
and proceeded to the fire.
Meanwhile the new engine of the
Five Points Civic Association, a hose
wagon from Newport and chemical
apparatus from New Castle and
Cranston Heights managed to reach
the scene of the blaze.
BY linking up a line Of hose
more than 1000 feet long, the
Five Points apparatus managed to
pump water from a flooded marsh,
enabling the firemen to protect the
barn and other buildings.
This was the first time the Five
Points company had responded to an
alarm since it's reorganization, the
apparatus having been put into SER
vice on July last. Great praise for
the company's work was expressed by
Mr.. Foster. and after the blaze had
been extinguished he treated the
hremen to rolls and coffee.
