A. STRANGE BUILDING LEGEND,
carious FraeUce m Vogue Among Kul
t . grarlan Mason*.
Nine master masons who were en
gaged in building a citadel in tho time
of the Voivoid Neagoe, found on return
ing to their work each morning that
the portion of the wall which they had
completed the day before had fallen to
pieces during the night and was lying
in a heap of ruins intheditch. Manol
of Curtea the head mason informed
Jus comrades one morning- that a voice
from Heaven had warned him in his
•leep the night before that their labors
would-continue to come to naught un
they all swore on that very morn
Ing to immure in the structure the first
woman, be it wife, mother, daughter or
sister, who should arrive with the
morning meal of one or either of them,
They 411 took the .oath, and the last
had hardly been sworn when Aland's
own wife appeared, carrying her hue
band’s breakfast. The oath Was kept,
and the woman, known in the legend
with the wall of masonry. A curious
practice of the Bulgarian masons (the
above scene is laid in Bulgaria), which
survives"to this day, testifies to the vital
Hy 61 the legend. To insure the solid
ity of the houses they build they meas
tire with a reed the shadow of the first
person who passes after the digging of
the foundation has been completed.
When the foundation Is commenced
this reed is buried under the first rook,

told to look out for all two-dollar bills
of this description which should lack a

cleaners at from tt dollar to a
;dollar 'simply and a half a pound, which shows
that the fair sex in one city
(alone throws away annually about
.sixty thousand dollars’ worth of hair;
f for which they afterward pay—and it is
’the same hair, mind—considerably over
two hundred thousand dollars.
The cleaning of this refuse hair is an

HEBREV/, ISRAELITE OR JEW j
A DI.scus.slon »s to Which Is tho Proper
Appellation. .
i t i s not an unfrequent occurrence j
that I am asked which .of the three ap
pellatipUs given to our people—“He
brew,” “Israelite” or “Jew”—be the
more correct or acceptably, says Rabbi
Stern. I have no doubt that one or the
other among you have had similar ques- !
tions to answer, nor that you expori
enced some difficulty in shaping your
reply. In books, periodicals and dally !
papers, In public meetings and private j
conversations, these words are used
either indiscriminately or with an ap
parpnt doubt as to whether or not one
or the other would be preferable, or
|>erhap.s objectionable. In order to
form a correct opinion it would appear
necessary to have some knowledge of
the etymology, origin, and former usage
of these terms.
Hebrew-ill odr sacred tongue called
“Ibri”—is derived from “aval-,”
“to cross,” “come over.” It was first
applied by the ancient inhabitants of
Palestine to the family of our ancestor,
Abraham, who, migrating from Meso
potamla to Palestine, had to cross or
pass over the river Euphrates. 1 1 was
the name by which the Jews were
known to foreigners in ancient days,
Thus Joseph is spoken of by the Egypt
ians, and introduced himself to them as
an “Ibri” or “Hebrew.” Miriam asks
Pharaoh's daughter whether she should
go and call a “Hebrew” woman. Moses
speaks to Pharoah of the “Hod of the
Hebrews,” and the prophet Jonah tells
the heathen mariners: “I am a Iie
brewl”
The second term, “Israel,” “Israel
Ite,” is to be traced to the story of Jacob
wrestling with a mysterious being at
“Peniel,” when he was told, “Thy name
shall be called no more Jacob, but
Israel,” that is, “striving with God, vic¬
torious in Hod,” or as Hoaendus trans¬
lates, “soldier (or champion) of God.”
Thus the term Israel or Israelite
points to the mission of the children of
our race—to wrestle with or battle
against any forces hostile to their sacred
trust, at the same time foreshadowing
their final triumph and victory.
Tho nuns “Isaael” became tho na¬
tional name of the twelve tribes, col¬
lectively. Later, after the division of
the kingdom under Jeroboam, tiie name
applied only to the ten seceding tribes
forming the northern kingdom, known
as the king lorn of Israel, in contradis¬
tinction to the southern kingdom, con¬
sisting chiefly of the tribes tif Judah,
Benjamin tion and Levi. ■ After kingdom.we the destruc¬
ot the ten-tribe find
tho old name Israel again used to desig¬
nate tho people of the kingdom of Jud.'tli,
and the name “Israel,” collectively, and
“Israelite,” individually, lias to this day
remained in common usage.
The, third appellation, “Jehitdi,” or
“Jew,” originates in thc name given by
Jacob's wife, Leah, to her fourth son,
“Judah,” or “Jodudah,” meaning praise
or thanks to Hod; for at his birth the
mother exclaimed: “This time I will
give thanks unto the Lord!” The name
was worthily borne by the noble ami
sturdy son of Jacob, -whose record
throughout is without stain or blemish.
The tribe of Judah.named afterhim, was'
the most numerous, enterprising, and
valiant among all the tribes of Israel.
During the march through the desert
Judah’s place was In the van of the
host. The traditional standard of the
tribe was a lion's whelp, with the words
“Arise, O Lord and let thine enomles bo
scattered.” Later the name “Jehudi,”
or “Jew,” was applied to a member of
the kingdom of Judah (after the sep¬
aration of the kingdom of Israel),'even
to those not of the tribe of Judah; proof
of which we find in the fact that, in the
book of Esther Mordecal, though of the
tribe of Benjnman is called “Ish
Jehudi,” a “Jehudi” or “Jew.” After
tho return from the Babyloniun captivity
all the members of the new state were
called Jehudim, Jews, or Judeans, the
name being extended to the remnants
of the people scattered throughout the
nations.
So much as te the etymology andhis
torieal significance of the names
Mlebrew,” '‘Israelite,” “Jew.” From
it It appears that among the three the
first, “Hobrew," is tho most ancient
f. nd ,A 3mo t< ’' A« d “> |n nnoient days by
/ h ° J , ® W was distinguished from
foreigners, - bo to-day it would appear
that in order to point out
anything distinctively -Jewish the
word Hebrew is more properly applied,
Thus we speak of a Hebrew language,
Hebrew literature, Hebrew melodies.
etc. Otherwise the appellations Israel
ite and Jew, or Israelitish or Jewish,
are more frequently employed as more
expressive anil characteristic in'their
meaning and important in history. z>
thc two the former is a name of hdqorar
ble distinction, referring to the divine
calling of Israel, the spiritual combat
of truth against falsphood, of light
against darkness, in which our people
were enlisted as a nation, in which
8tS “ w ’ ,an ’ wit h th ®
fall of Jerusalem and the destruction . of

and which will not terminate until, in

They Will Do Made Part of tlid Service of
the United States.
The United States practice ship Con-i
tetellation, which recently sailed on the
cadets’ summer voyage, had aboard a !
number of homing pigeons, to he used
as means of- communication between
the ship and points ashore. The birds
Will bo liberated at intervals and are
expected to bring-official messages from
the prnctico vessel to tiie naval acade
IQy , where a loft or cote has recently
been established, says the Baltimore
Sum
If the experiment should prove suc¬
cessful the government would prob¬
ably find it profitable to the navy to
encourage the homing pigeon service
with the small appropriation needed to
carry out the plans of tho projectors of
the enterprise. At present the facilities
for training birch? at the naval academy
are limited, no government appropria¬
tion being available.
At Fortress Monroe, the first stopping
place of the ship, it is possible several Phila¬
trained birds from Baltimore.
delphia and New York will bo taken
aboard and dispatched with informa¬
tion from the cruising grounds. The
headquarters at Washington will also
be posted of the whereabouts of tho
vessel through winged messengers from
that elty.
A lot of the birds to accompany the
ship will no doubt be sufficiently
trained toward the close of the voyage
to be useful in conveying messages
ashore.
The practicability of the homing
pigeon service has been satisfactorily
tested by communications with the
ships of war anchored off Annapolis
and from vessels plying between Balti¬
more, Annapolis and other points. If
these experiments should be successful
they will demonstrate the possibility of
a vessel cruising along the coast at a
distance of over one hundred miles,
where no other means of communica¬
tion would bo possible, to be kept in
constant intercourse with the shore.
This prompt service, it is claimed,
would be a great advantage to the gov¬
ernment. The experiments will be con¬
tinued during the entire cruise of the
ship and will be watched with unusual
interest.
WHAT ROBBERS MISSED.
V. Lump of Gold Worth SHOO,000 Bent
from the M|ne to San Francisco.
Frontier highwaymen would have
had a hard time wrestling with a bit of
gold which arrived here by Wells,
Fargo & Co.’s express a few days ago,
says the Han Francisco Chronicle. It
Came from the celebrated Ilarqua Ilala
mine, and was consigned to J. Hubbard
and J. B. Bowers, the owners of that
property, for coining at the United
States mint. When the employes ot the
mint took a look at it they were
astounded. The reason was that it was
the biggest lump of gold they had had
the unhappiness to come in contact
with, seeing that it was in one respect
like many others, being not their own.
It was of a somewhat conical shape,
and seemed to have been emptied out of
a gigantic slag pot. It did not belie its
looks, for that was tho way it had been
shaped. It was the product of forty
five days’ run at the Ilarqua Ilala, and
the tremendous bulk weighed three
hundred and fifty-seven and one-eighth
pounds avoirdupois, and was stated to
bo of the value of one hundred and
twenty thousand dollars.
• The thoughtful representatives of the
owners of the big nugget telegraphed
from point to point as they progressed
with it to the mint, sixty miles south¬
west »f Phoenix, and announced when
it should arrive at tho next station.
This was to forestall any ambitious
men with guns, for, though aspiring
highwaymen wore thus kept exactly
posted as to when the gold might be
expected, it also posted the people in
each town. The nugget was too big
for any party of bandits to carry it off
intact and Becrete, and, had they
stoppou the caravan on the way to tho
railroad, they would have only had
time to chisel off one thousand dollars
or so till tho pack of bloodhounds
■which the prison officials keep at
Phoenix would have been on their trnO.
Nobody molested it therefore and it 1
reached here safely. The ponderous
yellow cone has attracted much atten¬
tion.
SHE SOLD THE HOUSE.
How the Widow Joaos Was Induced to
Fart with Her Home.
“Yes,” said an engineer of long ex
perience to n reporter, “railroading is
an exciting yet an attractive life. It
has its'aches and pains,’ but neverthc
leas the ‘goodies’ and ‘sweets,’ too, if
one may put It so.
“I remember a peculiar accident that
happened to me on one of my trips not
long ago. To g» back a little, I will
say that one of the many sharp curves
on tho road is on a fifty-foot hill that
? lopes down to a “ °} d f^mhouse. This
house was occupied by an old woman
known as the ‘Widow Jones.- She had '
been asked many Lr times to sell out to
the railroad, for that some accident
would happen her and her home. But
the widow had refused just as often,
and things went on thus,
“Well, you sec, one night about 10
o’clock as we struck the curve at a good
speed the engine broke from the train,
the track and went rolling down
moment found the engine crashing
through Widow Jones’ house, with my
self nil mixed up in the debris I picked
myself „p just in time to see thc widow
crawl l out of her bed and make a ‘bee
hnc from thc house.
“Next day I knowingly smiled as I
