UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Jerusalem! How much that
name meant to the ancient Jews!
How much 1t means to the Jews
today!
The ancient Jews did not want
TO be under the rule of the Romans,
and in the year 66 they rose in
revolt. A Roman army was driven
from Jerusalem.
Behind their strong walls, the
people of Jerusalem felt fairly safe,
and for time they suffered no
harm. Then the Roman emperor
sent a large army to lay siege to
the city.
It 50 happened that many thou
sands Of Jews from other places
were in Jerusalem at the time.
They had gathered there for the
Passover.
In command Of the Roman legions
was Titus, age 80, the son OF the
Roman emperor. At a later date,
he was himself to be the ruler of
the empire. Besides his Roman
soldiers he had Syrians and Arabs
rs allies.
In company with 600 cavalrymen,
Titus made trip around the
walls Of Jerusalem. He wanted, if
possible, to find a place where the
walls were weak. Suddenly a gate
was flung open, and out rushed q
thousand or more Jewish soldiers,
shooting arrows, and hurting darts
and spears, at the surprised Ro-
mans.
Titus was wounded, but saved
himself by galloping away. Some
Of the cavalrymen fell to the ground
but others escaped.
Caesar Is running" shouted the
Evening star., 1939-01-11

Jews. Jehovah is with US! He
will put down our enemies!"
In the days which followed, Titus
ordered his men to build q fort at
the base OF the Mount Of Olives
He expected the siege to last q
long time, and wanted to be safe
from a sudden attack by the Jews.
The fort was hardly begun when
the Jews did sally. forth, and it
took all the soldiers Titus could
bring to the spot to beat them
back.
Battering rams and siege towers
were moved toward the citv walls.

Titus Attacks Jerusalem
By John Hix

Closer and closer they came. Some
of the siege towers were 80 feet
high, and they must have been .
terror to those who watched from
behind the city gates.
A gate was opened, and out came
a band of brave men, each carrying
q torch. The plan was to set fire
to the towers and battering rams.
Some fell dead or wounded under
a rain Of arrows and darts, but
others had almost reached the
towers when cavalrymen galloped
to the spot and drove them back.
Several were captured, and the
first prisoner was crucified, Is a
warning to the stubborn defenders.
Again the Romans moved In on
Jerusalem. When they came close,
large boulders and boiling oil were
dropped from the walls, but this
did not stop them. They clam
bered over the outermost walls. and
became masters Of the suburbs Of
Jerusalem. Yet 1t was not the
end. There was another wall
barrier for the main part Of the
city, and the great walls of Herod's
Temple could be defended.

A Domestic Problem
Cincinnati Enquirer)


The removal of barriers to international trade
mas become widely recognized key to prosperity,
and the UnitedaS Governments effort to faci-
trade between nations has met with general sup
port Yet, coincidentally scant attention has been
paid to the development of state trade barriers which
have greatly complicated and restricted commerce
between the states
The situation is not inaccurately described by
Governor Lloyd c. Stark Of Missouri when he says the
states are in danger of Bakanzing once great free
rade Certainly the trend has been in the direc
ion of submitting interstate trade to many COM
1exties and hindrances as interfere with commerce
between the states of Europe quagmre of conflict
ing state trade regulations harnesses interstate
nerce and the major part of it constitutes selfish
abuse of state sovereignty.
The Buy Ohio-Coal' proposal rejected by the
Ohio General Assembly recently typifed the state
Of mind which has led to the creation Of state ports
of entry restrictive taxes interstate trade and the
many other hndrances to the free exchange of goods
within the nation Until just recently this school of
thought has predominated in most states Fifteen
states actually have tariff walls about them in the
form Of use taxes" on goods bought and brought in
other states More states achieve the same effect
by restrictive regulations. 1t is commonplace for
states to penalize by taxes ard license provision the
so-called foreign corporations"
The trend manifestly is short-sghted but only re-
Gently has it been recognized as such Individual
states have regarded it necessary for them to par
cipate in the parttoning of trade so long as their
neighb0rs guilty of it, Relief from the situation
must as result of concerted action. That is
the intention of a conference in Chicago early next
month between representatives of the states conpris
ing the Council of State Governments. 1t is up to
the corees to rescue the old tradition of free trade
within the Union

The recruits keep from getting fat in the head,

IN night club chorus lne-they are slim enough for

THURSDAY. APRIL 6. 1899
Under this planetary government
unhappy mental conditions may be
prevalent in the morning hours, ac-
cording to astrology. The desire to
criticize will be strong, and selfish
ness will be dominant trait in per-
sons of all ages.
The mind is likely to be hospitable
to what is disturbing and even de-
structive wherever human relations
are concerned. This may lead to dis
putes, quarels and even riots.
Under this sway the inclination
to believe the worst will cause do
nestle unhappiness, due to I'M
founded jealousies as we'll as politi-
cal or governmental conflicts.
Fear should be sternly rebuked
while this sway has influence. Bear
ers of bad news should beware Of
predicting more than appears on the
surface.
In the evening kindly stars rule.
1t is a time most favorable to inter-
views, meetings and social affairs.
There is a sign encouraging frank
discussion and honest opinion.
Compromises will benefit business
as capital and labor reach satisfac-
tory agreements. Manufacturers will
speed important orders, especially
for trucks, airplanes and water
craft.
Palestine continues under SIMS
ter omens. Surprising and unexpect-
ed events are prognosticated, de-
spite British authority and efforts
to safeguard residents of different
races and faiths.
In the British Empire the ruling
minority composed of the Anglo
Saxon people will undergo supreme
tests in craftsmanship More than
enc change in the Cabinet is prop
hesied.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of a year of strenuous
effort that may bring into play
their best talents. Changes should
be avoided
Children born on this day prob
ably will be positive and persistent
in character. These subjects of Aries
usually are serious thinkers able
to achieve material success.
