BAKON H1RSCH.
The Greatest I'htlanthroplstof the Age.
His Wealth $200 000 000. or Wliioh He
Contributes $15,000,000 Yearly in Charity-How
He Gaihtd His Wealth.
With Huron Ilirsch disappears the
greatest philanthropist of the century,
lie hud a vast fortune, estimated at
$200,000,000, which he employed
principally for the lifting up of the
downtrodden people of his own race.
To his people ho was the later ?ir
Moses Montifiore; endowed, however,
with the wealth of a Monte Crista,
that enabled him to lilt misery and
] overty from thousands and thousands
It has been estimuted that his income
was from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000
a year, and this sum he is credited
with devoting to charity and philiauthropy
from 12,01)0,000 to $15,000000?sonic
say the cutira interest of
his vast weaith; tor it is asserted that
at the time of his marriage with the
daughter of one of his partners, Miss
Bischoffslieim, who brought him a
dowry Of $20,000,000, the income
from his own vast fortune was devoted
by him and the Baroness Ilirsch
entirely to charitable and philanthropic
work. With him Baroness Ilirsch
worked heart and soul in the splendid
work they took up.
J lis own gilts arc said to aggregate
O DO
$">00,000,000, while the Baroness'
were in gold propotion. The two
together made lrcqucnt trips all over
Europe, and whenever an opportunity
presented itself for improving the
condition of the masses the Baron
readily took advantage of it and gave
in proportion to the scope of the w?rk
intended.
No one knows of the thousands of
small things he and ids wife wete :
constantly doing to lighten the misery
and sorrows of the poor. The Ba- j
roness made personal lours of the 1
slums and poorest nuarters of every 1
large city in Europe, and h.ivii?,< :> '
Ti.onr; ^ --fciwtfledgc oi' English, 1
French Italian, (Spanish, Russian, (
German and many of the provincial f
linlecti?, was able to map out and '
carry into operation the best and <
safest remedial measures. "We 1
devote our money," Huron llirsch (
once said, "totbe.se poor wretches, I
simply because all the rest of the j1
world is turning a cold shoulder to '
r.uem. The vast amount Huron
.1 Uracil has expended in his life in
philanthropy has yet to be tabulated. 1
When it is the world will doubtless 1
wonder, and all he has done he did J 1
with superb system, so that ln> death ! '
leaves the world no poorer.
Mr. Oscar IS. (Straus. former min
ister from the United States to j >
Turkey, who knew Huron llirsch 0
well, said ol him. "In order to;
understand the Huron's charitable j 1
operations it is necessary to know the
leading theory oJ'all his actions. Thai
is, that men who have wealth are
responsible to mankind ibr its proper
use. lie (irmly believes it to be his
duly to use his vast wealth for the j
.amelioration of tin; ills ofimui. I.il.c i
xiii others who have attempted to give
.uiouev intelligently, lie finds this no
easy task. lie is one of the busiest
men 1 know, yet practically .ill his j
time is devoted to charity." '
A.I. A. JS. iSoloiiiotis, of the 1 lirsch i
Colony Fund, was once asked: "What !
effect won Id Iktion Jlirseh s sadden ]

equally suocessfull, rjk! when lu
retired from active partscipation in
business his fortune was collossul.
Huron Hirsch had strong convictions
as to the use of wealth, and it
is the munilicv'iice and well directed
aim of his almost boundless charities
that gu\e to him a world wide reputation
as a philanthropist, lie firmly
believes it to be his duty to use bis
vsist wealth f-r the amelioration of
the ills of man.
In liStiO, Huron llirseli carried out
his p.-)'. for aiding Hebrews in this
country. In .April oftliat year lie
sent to a committee, in this city, the
first installment of the sum promised
'JO,000 annually?fur immediate
distribution. This stun, $10,000, he
promised to send every mouth, during
liis life, and after his death, it would
be found that a trust fund had been
created, with a sum the interest of
which would produce an equivalent
anionut forever. The deed of trust
stated the specific objects for w hich
money would he used, namely: The
education and relief of Hebrew immigrants
from Europe, chiefly from
Russia; for the transportation of im
migrants, selected alter their arrival
at an American port, with reference
to their age, character and-Capacity,

for the instruction of immigrants in
the the Knglish language, in agricultural

(?n February 7. IN'.H. Huron
llirsch cabled to .Mr. Jesse Saligman
that the tru.-tees of the ilirseh fund
in the I nited States for the benefit
jf impoverished immigrants to this
country might draw upon him for
(him. to be used in carrying
"it the work which tiic Huron had
:ilready endowed with a monthly payment
ol':M<?,<?Od.
In an interview with a correspond
iletit of the Herald at Monte Carlo
shortly after the above munificent
gil'i, had been received the Huron gave
some interesting j.artieulars respect
nig n:s numerous nenetacuonti.
It ;?|is from this conversation
that the nIVoctions of Jlaron llirsoh
wciv* centered 111 liis oniy child, Huron

years previously, alter a very short

In May, IM'l, the trustees for the

While the Legislature investigating
committee is investigating conditions
and affairs at Clemson College it
. should not fail to look imto the conduct
of the College dairy, under the
direction of Prof. Hart, and render a
lull rep rt of its observations in t^at
interesting institution.
Tlic dairy is well worthy of such
attention to all the accounts we nave
of it. Its fume has already extended
far beyond the limits of the State! Its
cheese and butter products received
high commendation, and some prizesf,
we believe, from the authorities at
the Atlanta Exposition. Competent
judges have pronounced its cheese
among the finest made in the United
States, and a northern visitor declared
that he was paying ;>0 cents a
pound at home for butter of the same
quality as that made every day by. >i
Prof. JIart. As was reported in the
News and Courier recently, the owner i
of one of the largest and finest herds i
of dairy cattle in the South, u north- j
crn man vi-itcd the College a few <
weeks ago for the express purpose of
employing one of Prof. Halt's grad- i
nates to take olmrge of his dairy bus- j
in ess, and was much disappointed to 1
learn that there were no giaduates I
yet. The butter of the dairy is ship- 1

A sample that was exhibited in Char- t
leston last week received the highest >t
prize from housekeepers and other
experts who examined and tried it. t
It was firm in texture, of a golden 1
yellow color and of a flavor that hinted 'J
at clover fields and carried convic <1
tion of scrupulously clean cans, pans Ij
and churns, and of knowledge and
skill employed in every stage of its i
manipulation. Such butter is made n
at the dairy every day, and one of i
the most interesting facts in connect i
tion with its making is that it is made i
from milk furnished to the dairy by i
the farmers generally in the neighbor- J
hood of the college. What is being e
done for them by the college dairy i
could be done for the farmers ot any \

train such lminagcis from among tlie i
hoys at the college, to direct dairies x

dairy products. It is a pity that u
every butter making farmer, and his .a
wife, in the State cannot visit the :-i
college dairy and see for themselves t
the products it turns out. The next ,v
best thing to such visitations is to re
make the good work of Prof. Hart m

CUBAN BELLIGERENCY
What Recognition by This Country
Woaid Mean.
We pointed out sometime ago that
if this conutry should recognize the
Cuban revolutionists as belligerents,
Spain could no longer treat them as
niratcs if enntured at sea and as
I " " ? t
brigands if captured on land. One
of our contemporaries, the Milwaukee
Sentinel, contradicts this assertion
and maintains that "upon the
character of the warfare carried on by
Spain our rccoginition would have no
legal effect whatever. Spain would
still be free to conduct the war in her
own way, treating her captives at
her own discretion as brigands, pi
rates, or prisoners of war; exchanging
them; lodging them and feeding them
' o o o
properly, or sending them to dirty
prisons and giving them food not fit
for pigs."
So far as Spanish subjects are concerned,
our recognition of insurgents
as belligerents w ould liave, of course,
no "legal" effect upon Spain. But
the moral constraint which it would 1
exercise would be of the most salutary
character. No civilized country ;
Could afford to treat its rebellious
subjects as brigands or as pirates after i
their acquisition of the statutes of '
belligerency hud been acknowledged
C t v _ O
by an independent State. When the '

Europe and an interposition ofFianee

government would have been inevi j
