Another Candidate for Gas Light.

The question of lighting up the city on
and after November l, IS attracting the pro-
found consideration of the city faith
ers, and also that of competitors for
the contract. The latest arrival in the city
to look into the matter, as well as to make
an offer, is Mr.. w. I. Joy, agent of Shep-
herds Vapor Gas Light company, Daven-
port, Iowa. Mr.. Joy, as usual with all
agents, extols his article of light, but he is
willing to submit to the closest examination.
He had his light on exhibition at the city
hall last night The flame is clear,
white and does not flicker. The
brilliancy of the light is mellowed
so that the intensity is not hurtful
to the eyes. The light given, by the same
burner, is better and clearer than the coal
gas flame. The Shepherd gas is self-gener-
ating, and the reservoirs protected
against any possible accident. The lamp
used is almost identical with the common
street lamp, or the latter can be altered with
little cost. Those who saw it on exhibition
last night commended it highly. It is GER

JEWISH NEW YEARS.
Commencement of the Celebration of tt
Solemn Festival Yesterday,

Commencement of the Celebration of the
Solemn Festival Yesterday.
Last evening at o'clock the Jewish tenn
pie on Tenth street was crowded to it's ut
most capacity, the occasion being the initia-
tory service OF the solemn ritual used in the
proper observation Of "Rosh Hashona," or
New Years day. The services were most
solemn and impressive, the ritual was beau
tiful and suggestive, and the hymns SPLEEN
didly rendered, the choir being assisted by
Mrs. Austrian, soprano, Mrs. Demeules, con-
tralto, and Mrs. King, mezzo soprano.
After the solemnities of the ritual
the rabbi, DIR. j. Wexchsle, delivered an
eloquent address in English. He took
for his subject the following words from the
Pirka Abat-s'The day is short: the work is
gently to fulfil our duty He first of all
spoke of the uncertainty Of time-''the day
is short" and we know not what day may
bring forth, In illustration of this he re-
ferred to the terrible calamity fallen upon
the people of the South, the horrors of pes
thence and the dread presence of the king
of terrOrs in his most hideous form. In
these memorial days it behooves us
to look back upon the past with sober
thoughts anu ueep IneultatlOn, WIN num-
| bling ourselves on sackcloth and ashes when
we call to mind our shortcomings and mis-
deeds. The day is short for repentance and
for atonement in deeds of charity and love.
The work is great" he showed, # each of
us would do our whole duty, md do it we'll
80 great that the short day, even, at it's
best, gives but little time, and then the
Master is exacting, and will call us to &C
count for every precious moment He has SO
| bounteously given us-bounteous when COM
pared to the short day melted out to others
With ur reflections upon the past, our sor
row and repentance for misdeeds and wasted
opportunities our humiliation, our earnest
resolves for the precious future left us should
be blended heartfelt joy and gratitude thai
the Master has so heightened our days ant
guarded our path from those evils which
have beset and overwhelmed our fellowmen
He entreated the audience eloquently to EN-
brace the opportunity offered by these 'day
of Judgment" which precede the atonement
After the address the rabbi offered up al
earnest prayer for his people, for the sufferer
at the South, and for all humanity. The ser
vices commenced yesterday will be continued
to-day, commencing at $50 this morning.
