Rome yours since Israel ZangwiU When on n visit to this country deliv- *red an address in New York city to fcla own people. A few of the epigrams which lu' then coined concerning the eharactcrintlcs of the Hebrews are here •ffered: The Jews had no country of their own. They could not possess the land of their fathers In reality. So they made a portable Palestine. They car ried it wherever they went. This was a •pirltual country. It. could not be as sailed by their oppressors. There have lieen two conceptions of tbs Jew—one that he lends money and wants H buck again, the other that he deals lu okl clothes. The truth is Jews have been everywhere.*- They have been everything except pope of Home, and they have come near to that. If they dealt in old clothes it was because papal decrees forbade them trading In anything else but old clothes ami old Iron. Jews In a way were as good as Unit ed States bonds, only United States bonds may he converted, hut when a Jew wns converted he lost his value. Because Shy lock was rich and Jcs- alcu beautiful nil Jews are rich and all Jewesses arc beautiful.

The Jews escaped C^- r ^ason of their differcut hygir nic laws. 'Hie Christians charged them with poisoning the wells; and thousands of Jews were put to death for not dying of the plague. Color'd Roosevelt told me that the Jews of his regiment were ntnonfe his bravest s^tlmrs, and when Hobson had to be kissfyj it took a Jewess to do It. Jewr. not only furnished money for Columbus’ expedition, hut his first lieutenant was a Jew. This officer dis covered tobacco, which is greater than America. Carlyle said the Jews had no humor, but Carlyle wns a Scotchman. ” A beggar sb le a spoon from a wealth ier member of his race who had enter tained him. When detected the beggar said: “By taking the si>oo» I broke the eighth commandment, which says, *Thou shall not steal.’ If I had not taken It I would have broken the tenth, which says. *Tb*»’i shall not covet.’ I saw I hud to break one comrtiandment anyhow, so I thought I might ns well tan the ^poon.’’ P It has always l»een the desire of Jew- iab fathers, however rich, to have learn ed aons-ln-law, however poor. I do not find this custom prevalent today. To Ubistrate why there an* no good Jews In tictiui Mr. Zangwill related the story <tf the lion and the cub. The cub had r- pnlullug of Samson ranejuishing h lfou, ( and said to Its paren*: “T have '-een many contests between lions and men. and always the men have l)cen the victors. Why are there no pictures, showing lions over powering men?'* “It Is because we lionsi finYP no painters.” was the par ent’* reply. * ^J?he Je^# have been scattered to the winds among all the nations of the earth. They have been of Immense jenrlcc to every country that has har bored tltem. It reminds me of the story of the crocodile which opened jits mouth so that a bird might go Into it and eat the leeches which annoyed It There was mutual benefit from the operation. It Is not strange that sometimes the Jews find the crocodile’s mouth closing tpon thciri. It was natural that Jews Should congregate around their syna gogues. They became to some extent Isolated from the people among Whom ithay dwelt. This Isolation brought with It suspicion, and suspicion caused more Isolation for mutual protection. la mediaeval times the nations of Jtarope bad a conception of the Jewish (Character compared to which Shake- bpeares Shy lock was a saint.

Craddock was shot and iustnntlv killed on Ills plantation in tb 4 ' jounty night before last by a jv?gro. It seems ifiat the negro owed Mr Craddock for certain cotton ginning which Mr Craddock had done for him and this debt Mr Craddock wanted to ,collect. He went to the negro’s house, about dark, ami caUed to him to coma out and pay him lor the ginning. The negro stuck a gun through a crack of the house uud tired with .me above re sult. It is rumored here that two negroes were arrested yesterday morning for this homicide and were locked up for safe keeping in an out luuse on Mr. Craddock's pla utntiou and in the after- uoon when officers of the law reached the house where the negroes hail been locked up they found the lock on the house broken and both negroes gone. Later rumor this morning is that botu negroes weie lynched yesterday, y Deceased*wns a son of Mr J. J.

These are the ones we handle. No matter from which of these you select, you can’t get anything but good merchandise—the best that America affords.
