The Jewish new year which the Hebrews
of this city celebrated Thursday is the
beginning of the year SCAT. The Hebrew
calendar is dated from the creation,
which is considered to have taken place
$3.50 years and months before the
Chlistipn era. The year is luni solar,
aud according as il is ordinary or embo-
lisniic, consists of 12 or 13 lunar months,
each Of which has 80 or 30 days. THUS
the duration of the ordinary year has
351 days and That Of the embolisnic is
1884 days. In either case it is sometimes
made II day more or a day less, in order
that certain festivals may fall on proper
days of the week for their due observance.
The Hebrew new year begins with the
new moon following the autJlmnal equi-
nox. Should it fall on Wednesday,
Friday or Sunday, it is celebrated ON tho
following day. Tho day was observed
by religions exercises in the German Hall,
and by tneral closing of all their

A Whining GOnlan's Adventure In the
Secret Service.

SECRET Serstcos
Harry Siddall, an ex-Wilmingtonian
who was in the employ of Harvey 4
Sisler and others here from about 1870 to
1873 stopped at the GAZETTE office Thurs
day on his way home to hhis family,
in Philadelphia, whom he has not seen for
over four years, having been absent for
that length Of time in the distant west on
work connected with the Secret Service.
He has been engaged lately in Texas and
along the Mexican frontier. During the
four years be has spent west of the Mis-
souri,, he has had hand in hunting down
and bringing to justice great many law
breakers and has taken part in some
notable adventures. He brings with him,
among other things, some relics of the
famous james gang. One of Mr.. Siddall's
exploits was thus written up in the Omaha
Bee Of April Goth, last
Operatives OF the Western Detective
Agency have just succeeded in corralling
two dangerous burglars and several crooks
who have been operating in the state for
some time and latterly in Sterling and
Smartville, Neb.
Detective Harry Siddall was dis
patched to Smartville to work up the
preliminarie5 of the case. He assumed
the role OF tough and, by dint of clever
work, succeeded in making himself solid
with gang of men who were suspected
OF being implicated in the burglaries
He became as it were one of the band and
took part in numerous burglaries which
were planned and executed by the crooks
whom he hoped to convict. Finally a
job was put up to rob safe at Smartville,
little place six miles from Sterling.
Every preparation was made to insure the
success of the scheme, for the safe was
known to contain about 81, 900 in money.
In the meantime Detective Siddall tele-
graphed to Chief Neigh, who responded
at once by appearing in Smartyille
on the night on which the rob-
berry was to be executed. Siddall
and two burglars whose names
were Walmesley and Howard, were,
according to plan preconcerted, between
Siddall and Neigh, caught in the very
act OF blowing the safe and were promptly
arrested. The detective was placed in
Jail with the two crooks and managed to
gain trom them clear confession of
many pieces of crooked work In which
they were concerned. The grand jnry,
which was in session at the time, at once
indicted the men and they will be placed
on trial at the next session of the circuit

big EnvestnlotAL Abandoned After
Being i'm Operation for FIvo Years.
The extensive plant of the Moir u Sons
practically closed for some months past,
is decisively closed, with no hope Of being
reopened by the present proprietors, as
they are offering 1t for sale, together with
the lease of the farm on which the raised
part Of the products which they canned.
The plant is most valuable one and re-
presents an Investment Of about 1926, 900.
The buildings are large, spacious and in
good repair.
The cause of the closing of the Will
mington branch is ascribed TO the general
dullness of trade. 1t is said that the con-
sumption of canned luxurious, which
commanded big sales only few years ago
has decreased so per cent. The cannery
here was started about five years ago to
supply the deficiency to the London
market which the London cannery was
unable to furnish, and it has only been
within the last two years that they haveat-
tempted to build mp trade in their
goods i'll the United States. This trade
is now being supplied by the European
branches which are located at London,
England; Aberdeen, Scotland, and Seville,
Spain. For several years they were ap-
pGrehtly successful and at times en-
ployed MS high as 300 to 400 mon and
women, the most OF whom have long
since procured situations elsewhere. The
stock here has all been sold or transferred
and Alphonse L Biardot, the local man
ager, is now settling mp affairs.
