MEDIATES FOR FOREIGN JEWS

United States Makes Urgent Demand on Powers to Stop Persecution, WANTS BERLIN PACT OBSERVED This Country Is Unwilling to Receive Immigrants Who Are Likely to Become Burdens on the Community Because of Their Unfitness. Washington dispatch: Persecution of the Jews in Roumania has been called to a halt by the United States. Prompted first by humanitarian motlyes, secondly by necessity of stopping the migration of pauperized and ignorant Jews in thousands every year from Roumania to this country, the government has issued a note to the powers. In a stralghtforwad manner they are told that the United States expects them to enforce the provisions of the Berlin treaty, which brought to a close the Turkish-Russian war and created the Balkan states of Roumania, Servia and Bulgaria. Insists on Equal Rights. The treaty provided that no one in those countries should be discriminated against on account of religious beliefs, that foreigners and residents should enjoy equal civil rights. But these provisions are overrun by the persecution which renders the lot of 400,000 Jews in Roumania the saddest of any people in the world. They are deprived of nearly every right. The note was framed by Secretary of State John Hay on Aug. 8. It had been for months prior to that time a subject of administrative discussion. President Roosevelt went deep into the question. I Urged by Jews. Prominent Jews in the United States, including many in New York, have been influential in urging the step. Isador Strauss of New York, former United States minister to Turkey, has made frequent visits to Washington and is credited with having helped to outline the note. The action of the United States In issuing this note to the powers, in regard to a convention to which she was not a party, was known to very few people in Washington prior to the time it was made public at the State Department Answers Are Awaited. Great curiosity is manifested here as to the manner in which it will be received by Europe. It was sent in August to the United States ambassadors at London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, St. Petersburg and Rome and to United States Minister Leishman in Constantinople, with instructions to present it at once to the ministers of foreign affairs at the respective governments to which they are accredited. It is therefore now in the hands of the government authorities of'every country to which it was directed. So far as can be learned here no answers have been received to it. Not a Harbor for Paupers. The position of the United States is clearly summed up in Secretary Hay’s statement that, while the United States affords always a hospitable asylum for the oppressed of all lands, it is not willing to receive those who are unfitted for the struggle for existence here and are likely to become a burden on the community. Thus the United States holds to itself the right to examine the character of foreign immigration and to examine'hny causes which render it obnoxious, and if these causes are originated by another sovereign state to remonstrate. Must Observe Berlin Treaty. The method by which the powers may take action, in accordance with the note of the United States, is not understood here, but it is likely to'be secured by an international convention, or perhaps by one of the powers taking the initiative and serving Roumania with notice that the provisions of the- treaty of Berlin must be observed.

DIDN'T BUY AN AUTO.

Admiral Evans Took Disinterested Advice of a Cabby. A story is told of how Admiral (then captain) Evans was cured of his dasire for an automobile. He was riding in one of these machines with a friend in New York. After the spin through Central park had become most invigorating the captain became talkative with the chauffeur. “You are the man I want to talk to,” he remarked. “I have been thinking for some time of buying one of these flying machines for myself and I want some expert advice as to what brand of wings to purchase. “I’ve driven every kind of machine that there is,” returned the affable engineer, “steam, gasoline, electric, and all, and I guess I know 'em all from A to Izzard.” “Well, now, my man” returned the captain, warming up to the gentlemanly steerer, “ if you were going to buy a machine for your own self what kind would you select?” “Well, sir,” replied cabby, “if I was to buy one, I’d save up my money and buy a boss." The admiral is still without an auto.

Had Crazy Spells.

West Pembroke, Me., Sept. 22. — The thlrteen-year-old daughter of Mrs. A. L. Smith suffered with a peculiar affliction which her mother describes as follows: “It is two years now since she was first taken with crazy spells. “They kept on coming at Intervals and I could get nothing to do her any good. “The doctors gave me no encouragement They all said they could not help her. “The crazy spell would last about nine days, then she would be well about nine days, but would eat very little and was very yellow. Even the whites of her eyes were yellow. “I heard that Dodd s Kidney Pills were a great remedy for young girls and decided to try them. “After taking one box she was completely restored and she has not had one bad spell since. Of course we continued to use the pills and she used altogether five boxes last fall. “In March I thought I saw symptoms of the spells again and I got sfx boxes of wETch she has taken four, and is in splendid health. “Her case was certainly a remarkable one and we are very thankful to Dodd’s Kidney Pills for the great good they have done my daughter.”

Wit of the Shah.

When the late shah of Persia visited London some years ago the following incident occurred: “At an exhibition in London,” wrote the late shah, “the picture of a donkey was shown and I asked the price of it. The director of the exhibition, a fat, whitebearded man, who gave information about the prices, told me it was £IOO. I remarked: ‘The value of a live donkey is £5. How is it then that this, which is but the picture of an ass, is to be paid so dearly for?’ The director said: ‘Because it is not a source of expense, as it eats neither straw nor barley,’ I replied: ‘True, it is not a source of outlay, but neither will it carry a load or give one a ride.’ We laughed heartily."

Love Tried and True.

“There goes a couple that have been friends since childhood, and grow fonder and fonder of each other.” “Are they engaged?” “Engaged! They’re married and divorced!”

Might Have Been Worse.

A disposition to look on the bright side of things spares its possessor much unhappiness, but when the cheerfulness rests upon reasoning so unsound as Mr. Dolan’s there must some time come an awakening. Mr. Dolan had lost his position at the mill, owing to his persistent habit of tardiness, and In consequence his wife was “low in her molnd.” But Dolan was as cheerful as ever. “Now don’t be losin’ your smolles, Norah, darlin’,” he said, coaxingly. “O’m out o’ wun-k, to be sure, but ’twas only a dollar a day Oi got. If Ol’d been gettln’ two dollars our loss would be twoice as bad. Kape that in moind, darlin’, and not be complainin’.”
