Step were at once taken to ameliorate tbe condition of tnese oppressed people. The Tonro Infirmary aud -Hebrew Benevolent Association joined bands with the United Hebrew Charities Bad Hebrew Aid and- Sewing Society; committees were at once appointed to exert themselves in behalf of tha Russian Hebrew immigrante, and. besides providing for their physical wants, to eon-' tribute by every moans in their power toward tbe moral and Intellectual elevation of these unfortunate persons.

South Basin and Baronne streets, Meyer's Hotel and the Lane Cotton Mills, food and clothing were provided in atxindsuee, and when tbe task of rinding employment for such as were ablo to labor was crowned with success, tbe higher work of education and civilisation waa taken Into consideration. To this end a committee on education, consisting of Rev. Max Heller and Messrs. Jos.

Trantman and taxar Cahn, was appointed to direct tbe practical education of the Russian lin migrants, while tbe sympathies of the Jewish ladiesoX ifsw Orleans were enlisted in-behalf of the Russian women ana children, ud committees were at onoe organized to visit the humble homes of these. people, teach tbem cleanliness and the art of modern housekeeping, impressing upon tbem the necessity of school education for the-children, and awakening tbem from tiie darkness of ignorance to tbe light of educated aud independent maucood and womanhood. To accomplish all this, money waa-uecesary. Ho personal appeal waa tuade for subscriptions, however. Mossrs.

THB UTI OF THESB IMMIGRANTS aadar the new civilization has been opened before tbem, and the success of the experiment inaugurated in their behalf by the Jewish philanthropists, cannot but prove an interesting study to this community. In order to note their progress from personal observation, a representative of tbe Picayune paid a visit to tbe different localities in whirb they have founa homes. Tbe efforts of the lady oommittaes i their enterprise of teaching housekeeping, sewing, eta, to the.

women- and girls wss at once everywhere the most scrupulous cleanliness prevailed, and to become industrious end thrifty housewives seemed to be the ambition of tbe women. A teacher has boea employed at tbe rate of $25 a month to instruot the children in the rudiments of the English language until the month of Oetober, when theywiU-4e seat in a body to the puhlio schools. A night school, which meets three times a week, is a special feature of the clurts being made to educate the men and women. The children were all off at school when the reporter called and the meu were at ork. learning by actual experience the dignity of labor, and the pleasure of providing for the wants of their wives and children.

The majority of tbe men have been given employment by their Hebrew benefactors, there being a general, concerted Idea that, as these refugees did not know the English language aud must experience rest diiHcnlty at first in their efforts to properly understand what would be required of them, it waa better that they be employed by those who conld sympathize with tbem and who had pledged taenisslves to -assist them to the plane of Independent manhood. All this is very beautiful and has fennd, perhaps, lu most striking exemplifloation at the LAX COTTOS MILLS, bere forty-two men, women and children were Immediately provided, upon their with homes and employment. In oa'Pasy with Mrs. Meyer L. Xavra.

ODKNHBIMSB, 'J eonrteous manager of the- mills j-a treasurer of the corporation, was and wben the ob-. 5 Tlsl' was made kuown, graciously forded permission to go througu the iin-' -onse establUhment, himself volunteerinif ant as a guide aud point out tho Russian '-uts aud the special lines of work In they were employed uu to from one division to another of crest manufactory Mr. Odeuhelmer luoted the visitors, stopping every now a i then to point out an immigrant girl or uaa as she stood near the great cotton directing the maobinery wbile the fa'ls were woveu Into cloth or deftly ar-lu? a broken thread so that there le no defect in the texture. Most of ''iris and the unmarried women are em-el in tne eardins. spinning aud it bavlug been found by that the delloacy ahd correct- cf female manipulation makes the sex srly adapted to this portion of cotton-1 manufacturing; Mr.

Odenheimer 1 that the Rnssiau female immigrants rtloolarly bright aud adept, and no -tr has been experienced in Initiating lilo ittlx worK. Ihcy have sweet and tractable dispositions and are willing and anxious to learn. They presented a elean and healthy appearance, as they stood by the looms or carding and spinning machines; not a head was raised, nut an eye was removed from tho work whioh required sneh elose attention. Some of the girls are very pretty. Their dresses are plain, bat neat and tidy, and here and there among them the vein of FOKTHT AND BKFIKBT TA8TB -waa evident in the knot of fresh flowers piunodat their, bosoms and whioh they bad gathered, Mr.

Odennelmer stated. In the early morning from the great garden of the mills, to which all the employes have access. The Russian men and boys are employed In tbe primary work of preparing the cotton for the looms, cleaning tbe balls and separating tbe fibers, and in the final work of bagging and stamping and preparing tha goods for tbe wholesale stores. When it is taksn into consideration that more than 35.000 yards of cotton goods are manufactured at these mills in a day, some idea may be formed of the immensity and rapidity of the labor involved. Mr.

Odenheimer stated that the men were also tractable and intelligent, aitd-rall easily into tbe idea of what would be expected of thov are willing and anxious to learn, and it has been a pleasure to induct them Into tha laoor. a junicious aiatriuu-tion baa been made of the Immigrants in all the departments, eaoh having ieen placed where they would best acquire a practical knowledge of the work required by eou-atant individual contact with experienced employes. 8o tuuon for the stimulus given to inculcate quick and industrious habits for the oharl table feature it is praiseworthy to note that the Russian immigrants who had families to support were granted the aame salaries as the old employes. From the great mill, with ita ceaseless hnm of activity, the reporter next visited the quarters which hsve boon provided for the immigrants. They comprise a neat row of frame cottages in olose proximity with tbe mills.

The buildings are owned by the mill authorities, and have bean rented to the refugees at the nominal sum of 92 a month. The rooms are neatly, furnished aud scrupulously clean and neat. Tue married women are not allowed to work in the mills, but remain at home to take care of TUB HonflEHOIJ AFFAIRS It was nearly' noon, the hour for dinner among the mill hands; the housewives were busy preparing the meals for tbeir husband and children, a curious feature in almost each home visited being the brewiug of tea in the old-fashionod Russian samovar. It was also the Sabbath eve and preparations were being made for the festival of the morrow. Every nook and corner of the hounea bad been scrupulously cleaned, tne beds covered with Clean linen, the table set for tbe evening feast and the old Jewish custom of lighting in the Sabbath still held sway among these bumble homes; two candles in brightly shining brass candlesticks stood upon the table ready to be lit at the evening hour.

In one of the houses'tbere was a large room which bad been fitted up for a schoolroom by the visiting committee, and in which Prof. Hoffman gives lessons in English and German three timea a week to tbe men, women and children, from 7UK to 8:30 p. ni. Mr. Odenheimer said they are readily ae-qnlring tbe English language, with such facility that it would be astonishing if it were not for the fact that the Folish and Russian tongues, which these immigrants speak, are extremely hard to articulate, aud the articulation of every other language la easy in comparison.

It Is for this reason that En glish presents such few difficulties to them in regard to its pronunciation. The women are being taught to sew and to knit, and the latter will be made in time quite an, industry among them. IHK COTTAGES in which these emigrants have been provided shelter are admirably situated in a clean, healthy locality near tbe river bank, where a cool breeze may be had at all hours. Every attention has been paid to their sanitary condition, and no case of slokness has yet occurred among the refugees. Several of these rural homes have already been embellished with primitive gardeua, and it was pretty lb see the corn sprouting about the dwellings.

There waa an air of quiet respectability pervading all these humble homes. The children were clean and ruddy-oheeked. They bad learned from tbeir kind lady instructors tbe first lessons in good breeding and politeness, but for tbe most part tbe immigrants at the Lane Mills seem to be of the better class, who have known better days. They wre all glad to aee Mrs. Xavra.

and mails known their simple wants in a gon'ht. delicate way, while she kept her nutotiooic in hand from house' to house, making suou memorandums of what they needed aa she judged best. It was late before the visit waa over. The evening shadows were falling, the Sabbath candles were lit in the humble homes the light which showed the faith that had dwelt in their hearts and led them to a hap- Sier land the busy hnm of the mill was usbed; the refugees who bad found love and klnduess in a strange and foreign land moved happily homeward; it was THEUt SACBATH ETEXIXO, and it meant peace and rest In a holler sense than others could dream of, for with tbe peace and rest had come liberty of conscience to worship their Ood as they chese, beneath their owu vine and fig tree. "Good gabbath." they saluted as we passed by, 'good (sabbath and every blessing." "It la an old custom among the Hebrews' said Mrs.

Kavra. We turned a earner; a lazy-looking young woman stood on the door-step holding a chubby babe in her arms; a strong young Hebrew had Just snatched a bunch of green from the tree overhead aud placed It in the baby'a hand, while tho mother smiled and patted It head. It waa a picture of home, content and rest after 'work was over. The young woman recognized ns and smiled. "This Is my man," she said, In her broken English, introducing her husband.

We chatted with them a moment and passed on. "Good Sabbath," they said, reverently, and we bowed onr heads. And so we left tkem in tne happiness and contsuc that had eosoe after their night of sorrow, and the thought Instinctively arose that many noble charities had been Inaugurated in New Orleans, but if there was a graudar or more beautiful work than that undertaken in behalf of the Russian refugees, it remained to be proved. SUN INSURANCE COMPANY. On the first page of this paper appears a notice of tbe Sun Mutual Insurance Company, to which the attention of insurers is called.

The Sun Mutual Is the oldest and largest of Orleans companies and, as the statement shows, possesses assets exceeding l.ooo.ooo, ana a surplus to policy-holders of $866,533 63. Suoh a showing should certainly Justify the confidence la whioli this strong local institution ts held. In connection with this notice It may not be amiss to state that tbe Sun's net loss by tne two dissstroas fires which visited this city yesterday will not exeeed $30,000. It Is true that the San appears to have a mneh larger amount Involved, bnt by Judicious re-Insurance the amoant at risk has been so red -iced as to leave a net loss of lesa thau $60,000. When the size and Importance of the two fires In question are taken into aooount, the amount of the Sun's loss is remarkably small for a company of its size and transacting so large a local business.

Much Is being written about the various deep water outlets on tbe gulf of Mexico; claims are being laid to the superiority of some of the passes, which in reality have nothing to recommend these to tbe favorable consideration of an investigating public but tbeir proximity to the guiX. In Southwest pass of Vermilion bay it is different. In the pass proper there is a depth of from SO to 200 feet and a depth across the "bar on the outside of 10 feet at low tide. Unlike other points. Southwest pass could be Improved without driving a single pile for Jetty work, as the formation on tbe bar la blue mud and shell, whioh, when onoe dredged out, would remain, as there are no shifting sand or soft mud to slide into the channel.

On the other band, the walla of the channel would stand as everlaatinr jetties when once cut through tiM present formation, rue channel will always be ksptopen by tbe action of the water flow log tbrongb as tbe tide ebbs ana flows. By referring to the maps it will be sera that Southwest pass Is one of the highest points on the gulf of Mexico, and should the national government become interested in this point it will urhlsh a short direct outlet for northern shippers. We trust Mr. Prioe will look into this matter. Vermillion star.

The New Orleans Team Makes First Appearance, And Succeeds In Prejudicing Public Against Its Chances, Ita tbe Although it Contains Eoma Good Players, "Who "Will Eapidly Improve.

Pelti and IIU Locals Defeat the Leaguers Bj a Score of 18 to 4. Fully 6000 people at Sportsman's Park yesterday afternoon awaited the umpire's cry of "play balL" It was the first New Orleans team in several years, and this fact, added to Hernsbelm enterprise, filled the stands and planted an overflow crowd In the field. If there was any vim or quality In the New Orleans nine suoh a crowd should have brought it out." Tbe people were well disposed, received the players aa if they were already ohamplons, and then sat down to see the earth wiped up with the Professionals. Laeonrrage was partly to blame. He was I hit all over the filed, lost his head, failed to watch bases and was nbt much of an honor to New Then some of his support was miserable.

Winston missed everything at short, Plook did not prove brilliant in his fielding. Fink and. Burke, after doing excellent work, let down and raa le some bad errors, andv MoKie got tired out aud indifferent behind the bat. Nobody soeuied able to stop the progress of tbe speedy little semi-amateur team set up as a mark for the home sluggers, tbe New Orleans nino got rattled and tbe crowd quickly grew disgusted. Its verdict of "no good" waa a littlo busty, however.

Outside of Winston, all the men gave proinUe of good results. Burke is an earnest player at first. Fink will prcve a good second baseman. Baum-ert was a little off yesterday, but had occasional epurla of speed. Smith was tbe only one who showed tntioh out-fielding, althongh Flock proved a good thrower and an occasional hard hitter.

Perhaps three of the best men on the team era loaned to tbe opposing -Mm. Martin and Genet, tho Ohio fanners, will make a reliable, efficient battery. Genet is a sort of Vaughn behind the bat, although his throwing arm is not quite as perfect, while Martin has speed aud curve. It was his first game since last July, and be depended more on ble out-curve, but it was enough for tbe alleged hard hitters of the local team, who aimed at the air and then cursed tbeir luo for using such bad Judgment. Both of the farmers can bit a little, and Stellberger la not only a hitter, but a base run uer.

Hitting, base running, coaching and ueldtng were tho main deficiencies of tbe New Orleans tsam. When these are supplied there will be a chance ef making soma neadway against defeat. Up to the fifth inning it was a good game, and tbe "fans" were lu fine humor. After that people quit scoriug. In the fifth inning the looal amateurs made nine runs, and tbe local professionals were out of sigbt.

Martin led off with a single, and McKie's throw. Flock's muff of Klock'a long fly and btelluerger'a single, landed two runs. Dowling bunted the ball and beat it out. and then Burke made a wild throw, giving Pelts AObauee to bring Stellberger and Dowling in with a two bagger. Flock luudad Lyons' tly, and Felts scored.

Cook got a Dase ou balls, and while MoKie tried to throw him out. Lyons scored. Genet's single brought Cook In. Flak fell over the ball hit by Kaue. and Genet scored.

Martin hit an easy ono to Winston, aud McKie missed the throw lu. Kane came in. it was a bad enough defeat a it stood, but the amateurs kept up their gait. In the seventh Cook got a base on balls, stele two bases, and scored when Kane's fly fell among the crowd in right field. Martin hit to Winstou and another wide throw and Mo-Kle'a inditferenee let in Kane.

Martin in turn soo red on look's timely single. New Orleans looked like it had a ohauee In tbe seventh, Laeonrrage hitting safe, Baumert getting a base oa balls and Winston dropping tbe ball Jnst far enough of third to make It safe around and fill the bases. Then Pashby fouled out aud McKie shot a hot liner at Martin, which tha latter held and threw in nioely. Fink also hit to Martin, but Lsoourrags slipped la before the ball and left tbe bases full. Sualtn came to time with a single to centre and allowed two men to ecore, but Burke's fly was devoured by Pelts, aad left New Orleans In a hopeless minority.

It did not get another vote, although the amateurs took advantage of tbe ninth to get In five more runs. Genet got first on Burke's muff, stole around lu time to get tbe benefit of Kane's single, and aoored. Bauraert and Winston let Kiosk's fly fall between them and Kane got to tblrd. when Stellberger's rattling single brought both men in, Dowling beat the ball to first after a bunt and Burke threw wild to third, allowing Stellberger to score. Peltz'S single brought Dowling in and both aides aatd enough.

It was time. The public had been satiated some time before aad half the seats were empty. The score by innings was Innings. jl 2 34 5 6178 9 Tot. New OrlcansTT 0 0 6 13 Picked 0 10U00300 4 Stobtle 46, Pensacolai O.

Mobile, April S- Special. Nearly 2000 people assembled at Frasoatl park this afternoon to greet tbe first appearanoe on the diamond of Mobile's Southern League team. Barring Fuller and Hayes, the team Is composed of large, muscular, well-built fellows, and Is altogether quite the best team that Mobile has ever had, though the work they had to do in beating the Pensa-colas hardly gave them sufficient opportunity to show Just how well they can play. The Mobile side of the game waa mostly carried on by the battery, they being credited with twenty-one strike -outs. Maoe held tbe box for two Innings, when the great left-hand twlrler, Frank, went in and slaugutered the Gophers rlyht along, is was a Waterloo tor Pensasola, not a member of that team ever reaching the seoond bag, and only three reaching first.
