PRACTICAL SURVEY.
The choice of Elisba was art no way
inferior to that of Solomon. The great-
est prophet of Israel had given Elisha
the privilege of choosing any blessing he
enight desire. It was then he showed his
remarkable sagacity' and commendable
foresight. In his estimation the spirit
of Elijah was of far greater value than
the treasures of 8. kingdom; so desirable,
indeed, that he longed exceedingly not
merely for that spirit, but for a "doebie
portion" of it. Surely it was a hard
thieg to ask, es Elijah intimated, but
he was to have it upon one condition,
that he should see Elijah when the pro -
was taken from him. The lesson
of to -day opens with the scene of separa-
tion. To Elisha's great joy, he saw Eli-
jah ascending into heaven, ,and eried,
"My father, my father, the eleariot of
latael and the horsemen thereof." 'This
desire for the lofty prophetic spirit of
an intensely spiritual nian was both

Rioters at Sasnovitch Dis-
member Bodies of Victims.
Parts of the Corpses Being
Tossed to Dogs.
Berlin, Sept. 20, --The Russian cru-
sades against the Jews ba.ve penetrated
to Germany, according to information
obtained. to -day, which details occur-
rences in Germany rivaling the deeds of
the Jew halters in ltussia. This infer -
illation has reached the world by chan-
nels similar to that -through which came
the news of the Kishineff slaughter.
There was a riot at Sasnovitch one
week ago to -day, it is reported. News
at this outbreak evidently has been suc-
cessfully supplessed by the German of-
ficials, the first information concerning
it being that received to -day. How this
was aecomplisheil in Germany, where
the press enjoys a large measure of free-
dom, is not understood here.
Jews were murdered in the streets of
Sautovitch and blood flowed in the gut-
ters like a stream. The dead are over
fifty and the wounded, while not known,
reach hundreds. More than 100 were
left for -dead or believed to have been
mortally wounded.
Sasnovitch, where the riot is reported
to have occurred, is a small city in the
province of Prisen, in Germany, near the
Russian border. The population of the
place is niade up of Jews, Germans and
Ruseiens.
The riots began at sunrise on Sunday
one week ago and continued until the
rioters were exhausted. Bodies of vie -
time were dismembered. The rioters
used axes and knives to chop off arms
and legs, the severed members being
tossed toihe dogs in the streets.
In. one instance, it is reported, the
arms of a sexton of a synegogue were
twisted from his body by his assailants,
and the wounded -who were carried to
hospitals were maltreated after reach-
ing the institutions.
The bloodthirsty mob fell upon the
Jewish quarter after sunrise, and. when-
ever it encountered a Jew pursued him
and stabbed him in the back or shot him
dowu as he was maleiug his esespe.
The bodies of those who were riddled
with shot were left to lie in the street
until the second mob, carrying leaves,
would come along. With their sharp
blades they severed hands, legs and feet.
Fragments of these bodies were hurled
to dogs, which followed the mob.
A Jewish woman named Gelenzerewho
was the mother of five children, fought
desperately and pleaded for her children's
sake that her life be spared. She was
stabbed fifty-eight times and dismem-
bered.
Although the Jewish querter was so
terrorized that every man was afraid
of his life, men went .0 the rescue of
the Woman, but she died in a few min-
utes after she had been tarried into the
nearest house.
One detachment of the mob stole into
a large synagegue and caught the sex-
ton, a man named Seeger, who fought
them. 'They eaught hold of las lee and
Iiis arms mid with the etrength of four
men at each ram and kg twisted hie
aims from the shoulders.
A business man named Leipner had
his fingers ehopped off on a block, and
with another blunt instrument one man
knocked his teeth out. Victims of the
slaughter were chopped and dianember-
ye, so that identification of the einesee
by Mends was almost impossible.

KINfi PE1ER OF SERVIA
CROWNED AT BEIMADE.
Placed the Crown Upon His Head
Amid Salvoes of Artillery.
Belgrade, Servia, Report -Peter Ka-
rageorgevitch was crowned King of Ser -
via to -day. There were no hostile de-
monstrations and no attempt to carry
out the numerous threats which had
been made against the new king's life. In
the solemn ritual of the Greek Church
and hi the elaborate state procession
which preceded and followed the corona-
tion the tragedy of Servia's previous
ruler found no echo. Amid the thunder
of the saluting guns from the Royal
palace and the garrison, King Alexan-
der's murder was at least outwardly for-
gotten.
Here and. In every garrison town of
Servia the dawn of day was marked by
a salute of twenty-one guns and before
ehe sun was well up King Peter, on
horseback, rode out from the palace. The
briliant procession then started for the
cathedral through the troop -lined streets.
Behind the soldiers were packed dense
crowds, who, in spite oz the rainy weath-
er; stood patiently waiting to see the
King. The royal heralds, cavalry and
life guards, (the heralds bearing the Roy-
al standards), and carriages with the
Montenegran and Servian princesses pre-
ceded the monarch. Beside King Peter
rode his two sons, George and Alexander.
The cathedral was reached shortly after
8 o'clock. The representativee of for-
eign powers, the Cabinet Ministers and
others had. all been waiting for some
time. As King Peter entered the Met-
ropolitan consecrated 'him and more ar-
tillery salutes were fired. The King
then took up his position under a. can-
opy and the Metropolitan, assisted by
many bishops and other clergy, corn -
menced solemn services. After prayer
the Premier and other ministers hand-
ed the crown and regalia to Ring
Peter. He kissed the crown. placed it on
his head and robed himself in the Royal
garments. An artillery salute of 101
guns then announced to the people of
Belgrade that King Peter had been
crowned.
Wearing the crown on his head and
fully robed the Ring left the cathedral,
remounted his horse and rode through
the crowded. streets .to the palace. There,
in the grand festal hall, King Peter re-
