charge of everything left in the rooms and
try to trace the owners. Sometimes he
succeeds and sometimes he does not. Only
this morning we received letter inquiring

went to the safe and found the ring la

ANOTHER BELMONT TRAGEDY.
A Man Probably Fatally Hurt in Quarrel
Over q Fence.

4 Man Probably Fatally Hurt in Quarrel
Over q Fence.
Belmont county is acquiring quite a
criminal reputation. Hardly had the
Mitchell-Grifith tragedy died out until an
other one is reporter from the vicinity Of
Flushing, where two farmers tell out about
"a line fence" Stanton Hambleton, Oldest
son of Rev. w. K. Hsmbleton, struck his
neighbor, Walker Carpenter, on the head,
crushing his skull and leaving him in
very precsrious condition. The circum-
stances of the quarrel are related about as
follows: The two neighbors have had some
rouble about their fences and almost made
he road impossible. The supervisor
notified them to remove the fences, and
Carpenter complied. Hambleton did not
and the man of the roads removedit. Re.
Gently Carpenter, says the GAINESVILLE Re-
publican was doing some light work on the
road, and throwing some loose stones on
the Hambleton side, where there is no fence.
Stanton Hambleton, a young man about l8
years of age, left his team where he was
blowing in the field, and went to see what
he was doing. A dispute commenced and
bad language was used. Carpenter
struck at the other with a hoe.
when Stanton threw stone at him, striking
Just behind the ear. Carpenter walked
into the house and laid down. His daugh-
ter inquired if he was sick, and receiving
no answer, thought he did not wish to be
disturbed and left him alone. Later she
became alarmed at his silence and went to
him. A pool of blood had flowed from the
wound to the carpet. A doctor was at once
sent for, and the examination showed the
wound to be about an inch and half long,
and part of the distance the skull was
crushed. He is at times insenSible, aud
his recovery is very doubtful.

THE JEWISH NEW YEAR.
-Sosh Hoshannah To-night-Tom Kippur
and the Tabernacles.

-Sosh Hoshannah To-night-Yom Kippur
and the Tabernacles.
The year 5,645 commences for the He
crews tonight. The first ten days there
after, and especially the first and second
ind the tenth, are kept with especial strict
ness and in way emiuently calculated to
demonstrate the lofty doctrines of the race.
Foremost among their doctrines is belief
the necessity of personal purity, purity
n life, thought and dealings, An annual
period of determination, refining the
soul, as it were, is thus most important.
And however bad Hebrew may be it is be-
lieved that if he begin new life and sin no
more, presumptuously or knowingly, he can
receive the grace of pardon. This is as far
as concerns sins not against his fellow men
All faults against fellow being must be
rectifed wrongs must be made right and
restitution or amends offered and accepted.
The result of such q system as this is TO
elevate the mind to a proper conception of
haman duty as Hebrews consider it, and
that is to snnihilate the difference which
tudhSs lO"CE tudu auSCiot
or, at all events, to prevent it from becom-
ing greater. Hence Hebrews engage il
6enevolence in all lis aspects Of charity and
forgiveness, together with prayer and re-
pentance. The solemn blasts on the Tho
far in orthodox congregations warns all Of
the duties of the period. Thus the season
shows religious celebration of q kind which
cannot but appeal to all, who, while
recognizing human falhbiity as
fact which cannot be ignored, yet con-
concede the desirability OF q season whose
duties shall be calculated to rouse the dor
mant sense of right, quicken the conscience
and wake man to his better nature. The
Jewish New Year is solemn and holy
event, a spiritual holiday of kingdom Of
priests and holy nation" Coming as it
ioes this year on the Jewish Sabbath, the
services in the synagogues will be unusually
solemn.
On the tenth day Of this month (Yishree)
Of the Hebrew calsnder the great fast Of
Yom Kippur, or Atonement will occur, and
Eve DAYS after begins the Feast Of the Tab
ernacles, which lasts eight days.
