The rubber for thd punishment of offenses of lesser de gree was hollow inside. That for the most serious offenses was solid.

PUREST BLOODED JEWS ARE EXILES Highlanders of the Caucasus Who Have Kept Free From Gentile Admixture. x\ SCORN THE PLAINS PEOPLE Their Language and Many of' Thalr Cuntome Are Peculiar*? -Date and Circumetancee of Settlement In That Region Unknown. London.? Of all the scattered trlbea and remnants of the Jewish people, none l? less known to the world at large, and certainly none preaenta a more striking contract to the common conception of the modern children of Israel than the Jewish Highlanders of the eastern Caucasus. Yet there are probably none In all the world wljo have kept the Jewish bipod more pure and free from gentile admixture, uor any who hnve more faithfully pre served the traditions, beliefs and cus toms of the times before the exile. ludeed, they hold themselves quite aloof from the other Jews of the Cau casus region, refusing to Intermarry with them, to worship with them, or even to have social or commercial In tercourse with them beyond the limits of the barest necessity. No Scottish Highlander ev?r scorned the Lowlnndor one-half so much as these Highland er Jews scorn their kinsmen of the plains and of the urban ghetto. Tradltiona Fail to Explain. The date and the circumstances of their settlement in the Caucasus high lands are unknown, even In their own traditions, but it Is certain that they have been there for nearly a thousand years. In that time their physical characteristics have been materially modi lied by their environment and mode of life. With characteristic .Jew ish faces and complexion, they Imve tall, stalwart, muscular bodies, re sembling the best of the Hill men of India, or some of the giant Highland ers of Scotland. Their life of course purely rural, since they have no con siderable towns, an^l they devote them selves to agriculture, and the growing of grapes and tobacco. From the grapes t Hey make both wine and brandy, and of these beverngespthoy ore Heavy drinkers. Indeed they have tfche unenviable reputation of being the hardest drinkers in all that part of the world ? which, might easily be. since the Mohammedan tribes around them are almost entirely tgtjil abstainers. However, drunkenness is little known 'among them, if at itN:* "* % They are also great fighters. That is generally a characteristic of moun taineers, and in these highland Jews It is highly developed. They always, go armed, as do the Montenegrins, and ure never backward in using their weapons for defense. They do not, however, share In any of the blood/ feuds of the Circassian tribesmen, nor do they Join in their raids and quar - rels. Peculiar Language. Their language Is neither Hebrew nor that of the country In which- they live, but rather what philologist^ term Par*i-Tartar, or a mingling of o Id Per sian and Tartar. From thin circum stance It Is Inferred that the'lr ances tors went to the Caucasus fiTom Persia In the days of Cyrus the Great, or Darius. Perhaps they were fugitives from Persian captivity; 'or else they preferred going to t^e Caucasus rather than hack to Palf -stlne. There is Indeed one ancient, legrend which tells that they wandered fttfithward In quest of Mount Ararat aa'J the remains of Noah's nrk. ? The patriarchal ? mode of life pre vails among then? . When a son mar ries he^does no* establish a home of his own. He gf'mply builds a wing on his father's htfuse and lives in It. In this fashion fhere are often three or four generations living In a single house, wht</u consists of a single story spread ovf.r a large area of ground. Bach hot^se has Its own allotment of land, comprising' grain field, tobacco field, vegetable garden and vineyard, and a 17 are kept In a high state of cul tiTnti/m, though with primitive meth ods. P Eftch garden Is Inclosed within a. vr. all of rubble and clay about sir ?art high. / These highland Jews have no rabbis f<nd uo religious head. They have no /synagogues and no liturgy. They have a scroll of the law, but It is used only for reference. They observe the Sab buth In the strictest Mosaic fashion, doing no work and cooking no food, all food requiring It being cooked on the preceding day. They keep the Pass over, not by eating unleavened bread, because all their bread Is always un leavened, but by eating an evening meal In rominon In the open air. The Feast of Tabernacles Is similarly ob served, and they have a special cere mony of their own at each new moon. Girls most always be betrothed for six months before marriage, and the bridegroom, Instead of receiving a dowry with his bride, must pay her father a price for her. This Is usually paid for In sheep, cattle or horses, but always In eighteen^ or some multiple thereof, fhe price may be 18 sheep or 86 head of cattle, or If the bride groom Is rich it may be 72 horses, but for some reason, the erlgin of which Is lost In antiquity, the number must always be eighteen or a multiple of eighteen.
