ALADY LION tanner.

Col. Boone, who is now In this
country exhibiting his horde of per-
forming lions, which are performed
free and unmuzzled in circus ring
is accompanied by a female hon
trainer-a Zion queen as the show
bills style her. Her name is Mile
Carlotta. She is not over twenty
years old, and is said to be as brave
as she is beautiful. She enters the
Enclosure accompanied by her noble
patrol dog Saxon" and to see her
in the arena surrounded by half a
dozen thousand-pound, lordly lions,
directing their movements with as
little apparent concern as if they
were lot of harmless cats, makes
the spectator shudder for an in
slant. Col Boone is the authority
for the statement, that women are
better adapted for performing with
wild beasts, than men. Be this as
it may, we will not controvert the re-
mark made by a lady, who, upon.
hearing this statement of Col.
Boone's suggested that this was q
fact and that only a woman was
capable of subiugating the most at
tractable of all animals-man.
Carlotta drives the lions har-
messed to charlots, leeds them from
her hand, makes them posture,
dance, leap, play see-saw. ride trieY-
cles, and many other equally aston
ing acts. This is one of the famous
features of the famous Forepaugh
Show, which is to exhibit here on

YOM KIPPUR

The Great Day of Atonemont and Fast Day
At sunset Sunday evening the fast
of Yom Kippur, or the great Day
of Atonement, the fast day imposed
upon the children of Israel by di-
vine command, began, and in this
city was righteously observed by or,
thodox Hebrews by literal fasting
and prayer, every Hebrew business
house in the city being closed until
6 o'clock Monday evening.
The observance of the day is one
of the principle tenets of the jew
ish religion, and wherever there is d
synagogue and members of this
faith reside in sufficient numbers.
the services of the rabbi are very
solemn and impressive, especially to
the man who first beholds crowded
synagogue, with the Hebrews intent
upon their religious duties. He
feels indeed that there is something
solemn, grand and awe inspiring in
it, indeed as if he were in the actual
presence of the Great Jehovah as he
listens to the deep bass voice of the
rabbi.
The day was instituted by Moses
as a day of penitance and prayer
and day of ''castigation of the
soul
The day previous to that Sabbath
of Sabbaths is devoted by the Jews
to the reconciliation with their fel-
low men. The usual formula for
the otfendant is to step before the
offended party an2 say: Il have
sinned against the Lord, the God
of Israel, and against thee, forgive
same thou hopest to be forgiven"
and It is considered the greatest
wrong for anyone to begin the day
without having sought the pardon
of all whom he wronged, or carrying
a CRU ige in his heart against any
man.

The reason for the decision in
favor of building the Baptist church
on the old lot instead of on the
corner of Market and Vulcan as at
first intended, was on account of the
delay that would be necessary in
getting the title to the new lot, as
the interest of minor children would
have to be Invested, which would re-
quire an order from the county
court in which the guardianship is
pending, and the congregation want
the church built at once. In the
meantime the church services will be
held in the Presbyterian church, the
Presbyterian congregation being
without pastor very kindly tender,
