If a writer gives to the world a story, whether in the form of a parody or history, which will induce people to think along the lines of truth, mercy and charity, he is certainly far from degrading the people. It was not Shakespeare's intention to misrepresent Judaism, and certainly the play is not produced now for that purpose. Shakespeare used Shylock merely as a character for the purpose of bringing out a great lesson, and the people have long recognized the lesson by their eagerness for the story and its production on the stage. If we had upon the stage more plays of this nature, plays which would appeal to one's conscience rather than merely to one's eyes or ears, we should Saturday at Baddeck Sui.

Special Cable Despatch to THE SUN. BERLIN, March 14. - Prof. Behring, speaking to-day on the subject of the fight against tuberculosis, at a meeting of the Agricultural Union, attacked Pasteur's system of purifying milk. Pasteur, Behring said, sought to replace milk by an artificial product. Similarly, he condemned the sterilization of milk and the boiling of water, with a view of rendering them innocuous. He considered boiled milk unsuitable food for infants, while the boiling of water killed the elements intended by nature for the making of bone and sinew. What is really necessary, he said, is the production of healthy cows and pure water. HOOKED DAD'S POLICE SHIELD. Fitzgerald Boys Played "Cops" and Their Father Had to Go Up on Charges. Doorman Bartholomew Fitzgerald of the Eldridge street station was up on charges at Police Headquarters yesterday because his youngsters played "cops and robbers." Fitzgerald left his shield on the bureau in his bedroom and his two boys hooked it. The doorman had to report at the station house without his badge and Capt. Mannion complained. The youngsters returned the shield to their father the next day and they have been taking their meals standing up ever since. Fitzgerald was fined a quarter of a day's pay.
