THE PERSECUTED JEW
Ilo In It la Claimed the Most Spiritual
Man Alive
The Jew is said to have what is
knowu as the commercial instinct
said Oscar S Straus Hume tells us
that under Richard I 500 Tews sought
safety in the castle of York where not
being strong enough for defense they
killed their wives and children threw
the bodies over the walls into the mob
below and setting Are to the castle
were themselves burned alive The
gentry owing money to the Jews has
tened to the cathedral where their
bonds or promissory notes were kept
and made a bonfire beforethe altar
The compiler of the Annals of Waver
ley in relating the event Hume says
blesses the Almighty for thus deliver
ing over this impious race to destruc
tion History blazes with such stories
of self sacrifice and barbarity The
commercial instinct In this particular
case appears to have been on the other
side
Instead of the Jew being a natural
barterer he is the most spiritual man
alive ne has been pounded through
the ages robbed and massacred but he
yields neither his traditions nor his
Ideals Had he been materialistic he
would have sold out long ago and
bought peace If he would join the
Greek church he would be safe in Rus
sia Rather than do that he will Avalk
into the jaws of hell Therefore I say
that he Is spiritualistic or idealistic
rather than practical or material Were
I to choose a family that would live I
would have it meet hardships and per
secutions Were I to choose one to die
I would give it pleasure and luxury
The Jew denied his civil rights de
spoiled of his property scourged and
murdered has only been made tougher
and longer lived His enemies have
given him strength and trained him
most admirably for the battle of life
no matter in what part of the world
fortune may lead him New York

TO KEEP YOUNG
Active
Be
Seek Variety and Dont
Afraid to Laugh
Never retire from active life if ypu
can possibly avoid it keep in the
swim keep the mind active never
refer to your advancing years or say
at my age
To preserve youth you must have a
variety of experience The country
woman at forty although breathing a
purer air and living on a more health
ful diet than the city woman often
looks fifty while the latter at the
same age does not look more than thir
ty But her mind is more active than
that of her country sister that is the
secret of her more youthful appear
ance
Nothing else ages one more rapidly
than monotony a dead level existence
without change of scene or experience
The mind must be kept fresh or It will
age and the body cannot be younger
than the mind
Few minds are strong enough to
overcome the aging influence of the
monotonous life which rules in the
average country home City people
have infinitely greater variety of life
They enjoy themselves a great deal
more than country people They work
hard when at work but when they are
through they drop everything and have
a good time There is no doubt that
the theater in spite of its many evils
has done a great deal toward erasing
the marks of age People who laugh
much retain their youth longer Suc

Old Joe a farmer was noted for the
many ways he had of skimping and
saving One day he hired a big country
boy to help him with his work The
boy reported for duty at 530 oclock in
the morning and Old Joe sat him down
to breakfast After the lad had finished
the meal the sharp old farmer said
What do you say if we eat dinner
while we are at it As the boy agreed
they fell to and ate a little more Then
seeing that the youngster could eat no
more Old Joe suggested Suppose we
finish up and eat supper too All
right assented the lad and he man
aged to swallow another crust of bread
Now lets get to work shouted the
gleeful farmer thinking of the saving
In meals he had made No returned

GOVERNOR MAGOON
The Administrator of the Canal Zone
and Pooh Bah at Panama
Rumor has it that Charles E Magoon
will one day be Governor General Ma
goon of the Philippines Governor Gen
era Jacob H Smith will retire next
summer The programme is said to be
for Judge Magoon who is now gov
ernor of the Panama canal zone to go
to the Philippines as vice governor
general and thus be ready to step Into
General Smiths shoes when the latter
is through with his duties In that post
Next summer the Philippine general
assembly will come into existence
This is the first step to be taken in the
direction of home rule and President
Roosevelt is understood to be very anx
ious that It shall be a success The
lower house will be composed of na
tives elected by popular vote Secre

CHARLES E KAGOON
the Filipinos while governor general is
much interested in the outcome of the
experiment to be made in native gov
ernment of the islands and is said to
be planning a trip to Manila to be pres
ent at the opening of the assembly
Judge Magoon and Secretary Taft
have been close friends and have been
intimately associated for some years
past in solving unfamiliar problems in
government Judge Magoon Is both
governor of the canal zone and minis
ter of the United States to the republic
of Panama In both capacities he is
much relied on to carry out the policy
of President Roosevelt and Secretary
Taft with respect to the isthmian ca
nal affairs
Judge Magoon has made a hit at
Panama similar to that made in the
Philippines by Secretary Taft He is
a man a good deacon the Taft plan
big well poised of ready wit and full
of diplomacy He was born in Minne
sota in 18G1 and started out as a law
yer in Lincoln Neb He was called to
Washington In 1S09 to become law of
ficer of the then newly created bureau
of insular affairs and has made him
self such an authority on all matters
connected with Spanish law and insu
lar administration as to be the main re
liance of the administration forces on
the subject
On the Isthmus Governor Magoon is
a sort of Pooh Pjah To the Panamans
he is a great grand gentleman and
when he rides through the streets the
population bows as if he were the rul
ing prince And he bows back to the
small boys and girls the old Indians
the senoritas and the government of
ficials as if he were running for office
When the elections were in progress
last July he strolled about arm in arm
with the alcaldes and by his con
tagiousness of his good humor did
more to prevent friction and disorder
at the polls than the entire police force

of Emperor William of Germany who
is likely to come to this country to
study is now about midway through
his university course in his native

to learn some trade and it is said that

work for a living he could easily sup
port himself at his trade He Is an
officer in the First regiment of Prus

during the reign of his grandfather

DEAD WATER
Effect of ThA Queer Mnrlne Phenom
enon Upon a ShlpH Speed
One of the tnost curious marine phe
nomena known to seamen Is that call
ed by Norwegian sailors dead water
which without any visible cause
makes a vessel lose her speed and re
fuse to answer her helm The sailors
only definite knowledge of its origin Is
that it exists solely where there Is a
surface layer of fresh water resting
upon the salt waters of the sea Sev
eral explanations have been advanced
by the captains of ships of the effect of
dead water the commonest of which is
that the two water layers move in dif
ferent directions The true explana
tion however recently offered by Swe
dish navigators and verified by mathe
matical calculation and direct experi
ment is that In addition to the resist
ance waves at the surface the vessel
creates a second line of subaqueous
waves between the two strata of wa
ter
The experiment carried out to dem
onstrate the truth of this theory was
an exceedingly pretty one A large
plate glass tank was first mounted on
a wooden frame The tank was then
filled to a certain depth with salt wa
ter and a layer of fresh water was
carefully poured on to the surface so
that two separate water layers were
obtained
The salt water was blackened with
liquid Chinese ink before the water
layers were prepared and in this way
the different layers were made clearly
visible A boat model was then towed
along the tank and a silhouette of the
waves produced was obtained by plac
ing a white screen at a short distance
behind thetank The waves were also
photographed by flashlight and the re
sults showed conclusively that waves
actually were set up at the boundary
line between the two liquids
Further experiments were made to
verify the sudden loss of speed due to
dead water The boat model was
drawn across the tank and the towing
string suddenly slackened when the
boat was about halfway across In
cases where the tank contained salt
water only the boat stopped gradually
moving some boat lengths after the
towing string had been slackened
When the tank contained a layer of
fresh water resting on salt water on
the other hand the boat slackened
speed quite suddenly and moved only a
very short distance
These experiments carried out on a
small scale prove conclusively that the
difficulties encountered within a dead
water zone are really due to the re
sistance experienced by the vessel In
generating Invisible waves at the fresh
water salt water boundary although in
so e particular cases the influence of
in LTcurrents must also doubtless be
takoii into account New York Herald
