days
The particular interest occasioned by this feast rests
in the modern use it by reform congregations
On this festival the children OF the religious school who
have attained practical knowledge Of Biblical history
and Jewish religious beliefs and doctrines, as well as
reading knowledge Of Hebrew, graduated OF con-
hrmed
The confirmation ceremony is a modern adaptation
by the synagog In this rite the children testify to the
love and justice wherewth God rules the desnies of
men and nations II is a ceremony OF conservation
wherein the boy and girl having reached the age of
reason pledge themselves 10 continue the covenant
made between God Israel at Sinai when God gave
the Decaog Israel and consecrated him priest
people to serve at the altar of humanity.
A renewal Of this dedication is involved in the
confirmation service which marks, the one hand

gious school, the other hand voluntary recog-
milton OF duties responsibilities member OF the
household of Israel to behalf Of those ideals of

The modern Interpretation of shabuoth follows the
process Jewish tradition which has invested this one
of the pilgrim feasts of ancient Palestnans with
content. yet with meaning that is an emoodi-
ment and continuation the original conception and

The covenant that then obtained between God and
Israel resulted in conservation OF the people to the

A FUNDAMENTAL PROPOSITION.

ru1HE fact that the meeting OF the European
IL economic conference is to be held at The Hague
instead OF Genoa can effect the American
attitude toward IT,
1t has been well known from the first that Europe
wanted to have this country participant at the par
eys and the recess that has been agreed to for the
purpose of asking United States to join does not
add anything TO what already known by the Har-
ding administration.
It has been terated reiterated that this country
can have nothing do with Russia until the Russians
can provide some guarantees for productivity In the
country and for the rights OF property there
That proposition fundamental and is not going to
be altered by the gesture removing the Genoa con-
ference to The Hague and extending formal invita-
ton to the United States.

From Bucket Shop to Jail
tFrom the New York Herald)

The conviction in the General
Sessions Court OF minor bucket
shop stock operator found guilty of
grand larceny marks what ought TO
be the start OF a long procession OF
such creatures. little and big, to
States prison. District Attorney
Banton is right when he says the
only proper action against that kind
OF crookedness is criminal prosecu-
ton for plain stealing.
The long and thorough work OF
The New York Herald in exposing
the fraud brokers and the Jealous
efforts of the District Attorney TO
keep them out OF business must
virtually go for naught unless the
swindling bucket shop men can be
put in Jail when they are caught at
their odious practices.
1t must be perfectly obvious that
no crook will ever be restrained
from fleeing the public merely by
the fear of bankruptcy proceedings
and civil actions 10 bring restitu-
ton. The most he can suffer under
such circumstances Is a loss of part
OF what he stole and that is
gambling chance any swindler is
glad to take. Prison Is a horse of
another color.

SYNOPSIS


I.-Returning home after a
days shooting, Dyck Calhoun, gifted young
Irish gentleman of the time OF the French
and American revolution. meets Sheila Llyn.
seventeen-year-old girl visiting in the neigh
borhood. They are mutually attracted. Sheila
never knew her dissipated father, Erris
Boyne, her mother having divorced him and
resumed her maiden name.
u-Reaching home, Dyck
finds Leanord Mallow. son OF Lord NAL
low. with a message from the attorney gem
eral, summoning Miles Calhoun. Dyck's
father, to Dublin.
CHAPTER III.-They go to Dublin and
there Mallow quarrels with Dyck and "A
duel is arranged. They fight with swords

CHAPTER IV.-Erris Boyne. secretly in
French employ, gets Dyck drunk and tries
TO persuade him to Join in revolt against
England. They quarrel and Dyck is over

second wife enters the room and stabs her
faitbless husband to tho heart.
later the room is
entered and Dyck arrested on a charge Of
murder. He does not know II he killed
Boyne or not. he was so muddled with the
drugged wine.
VI.-Sheiia begs her mother
to go to Dublin with her to help Dyck.
Mrs. Llyn opposes the idea. A letter from
Mrs. Llyn's wealthy brother In America
invites them to come and live with him,
and they decide to go.
VII.-Dyck refused to enter
any plea to the charge Of murder except
mo Defense" He might have escaped
by revealing Boyne's treachary but re-
fuses to do so on Sheila's account. He is
sent to prison for eight years. Sheila writes
Dyck. assuring him OF her belief in his in
nocence and urging him to come to America
after his prison term.

lie turned ana waved a hand to the
bowels of the ship where sailors trad
ed with slop-sellers, or chartered with
women, or sat In groups and sang, or
played rough games which had no vi
tai meaning; while here and there IN
groups, with hands gesticulating, some
fanatics declared their principles. And
the principles Of every man in the
More fleet so far were embraced In the
four words-wages, food, drink, prize
money.
Presently Ferens stopped short.
Listen !" he said.
There was a cry from the ships side
not far away, and then came little
bursts OF cheering.
"By Heaven, it's the Delegates COM
in here !" he said. He held up a warn
Ing palm. as though commanding ST.
lence, while he listened intently. "Yes,
it's the Delegates. Now look at that
crowd of seamen !"
He swung his hand toward the
bowels of the ship. Scores Of men
were springing to their feet. Present
ly there came a great shouting and
cheers, and then four new faces APP
peared on deck. They were faces Of
intelligence, but one Of them had the
enlightened look Of leadership.
"By Judas, it's our leader, Richard
Parker" declared Ferens.
What Dyck saw was good evidence
Of the progress Of the agitation. There
were officers of the Ariadne to be seen.
but they wisely took no notice Of the
breaches of regulation which followed
the arrival of the Delegates. Dyck
saw Ferens speak to Richard Parker
after the men had been In conference
with Parker and the Delegates, and
then turn toward himself. Richard
Parker came to him.
"We are Acknowledged" he said
genially. ~ know your history. We
are out to make the navy better-to
get the men their rights. I understand
you are with us?"
Dyck bowed. II Will do all possible
to get reforms In wages and food put
through, sir"
That's good" said Parker. There
are some petitions you can draft, and
some letters also to the admiralty and
to the houses of lords and commons"
II am at your service" said Dyck.
He saw his chance to secure infiu-
ence on the Ariadne, and also to do
good to the service. Besides, he felt
he might be able to check the worst
excuses Of the agitation, if he got
power under Parker. He was free
from any wish for mutiny, but he was
the friend of an agitation which might
end as successfully as the trouble at
Spithead.

Michael nodded.
