NE.r-I Itgsa night or during the
~ . early hours this morn
.. 49, ing and from the dis.
.'. ..'E. coveries made this
afternoon it is evident
that the two places were visited by the same
gang.
The two places visited were the store Of
Joseph Mandour, the Arabian merchant on
East Centre street, near limerick and the
Polish shoe store on East Centre street. just
below White.
Mandour is heavy loser. When he closed
up his store last night he left S375 in a cash
drawer under thecounter The drawer had
a combination lock and Mandour thought
the money would be secure in it until this
morning, when he intended 70 putitin bank
This morning he found the drawer ON the
floor at the back of the counter with but two
dollars aud a check i'm it.
Entrance to the place by tho burglars was
made quite easily A door between the side
walk and the cellar had no lock and trap
door of passage way leading from the cellsr
to a room at the rear of the store was unfast-
eued, so there was almost temptation for
the robbery.
In addition to the cash Mandour lost three
silver watches, and twenty-one silverene
watches and quantity of watch charms,
rings, underwear, gloves and other goods
which he values at over $500. The total
amount of his loss he says is over S7CO.
The burglary at the shoe store was more
daring The burglars smashed q large pane
of glass in one of the front doors and crawlcd
through the opening. When the owner went
into the place this morning he found the
stock scattered over the floor and counters
Five pairs Of shoes and five pairs of gum
boots were found missing after an account oi
stock was taken. Two pairs of much worn
mems laced shoes were found among the
new stock They were left behind by tn,
burglars-oue pair No. 9s and the Other
No. SIS.
One of the first pieces of evidence connect
ing the two burgIaries was au imprin. of a
new shoe in the muddy flooring of MandouI
cellar. 1t was at once concluded that tn,
burglars first robbed the shoe store and OIL
their way along East Centre street towards
the Reading railroad concluded to crack
Mandou's place.
The shoe dealers loss will not exceed $40
This afternoon Justice Toomey and Con
stable Giblin commenced searches and founC
secreted behind the tool house near the 2. s
R. passenger depot one pair of gum boots
three pairs Of shoes about dozen gloves anC
the same quantity of stockings, The good
were identified by the two parties robbed
There is no clue to the burglars

will be tried will earn for them long term
of Imprisonment.
At about II o'clock last night Dougherty
and Edward O'Donnell, Of the First ward,
saw two young men at the corner of Lloyd
street and Plum alley struggling along with a
heavy object. When the officer approached
and called halt the young men dropped their
burden and ran like deers northward through
the alley.
O'Donnell made spring for the booty
while Dougherty gave chase up the alley but
the fugitives were too swift for him and soon
got out of sight. When the officer returned
he examined the burden that had been
dropped and found it was a ten-gallon keg Of
whiskey that had been consigned to O'Don-
nell, the man who was ON the scene.
Further investigation showed that the keg
had been taken from one of the freight cars
standing at the rear of the Lehigh Valley
depot. The seal of the car had been broken
by the robbers. O'Donnell says the whiskey
was consigned to him as agent, but as the tag
was torn from the keg he is unable to tel
to whom it should be delivered. The two
robbers are not known and owing to theil
quick escape a description cannot be given O
them.

is near at hand. The celebration will begin
at p. m. September 10th and continue until

the month commenced when the new moon
was seen, and because of clouds il was fre-
quently difficult to fix the time of its appear
ance on particular day. The day is not one
of fasting, but is observed by religious SER
vices. A new account is opened with heaven
aud prayers for forgiveness are chief feature
of the service. Ihe new year will be known
as 1854 in the Jewish calendar The observ-
ance of New Year Day is presented in the
29th chapter of Numbers, where it is men
toned as the first day of the seventh month
On the 18th of September occurs the fast OF
Gedalyah, and on the goth, the day of atone
ment-a great fast, followed by the Feast OF
the Tabenacles on the 25th. The next
Hebrew year will be long one, extending
from September 11th, 1898, to October 1st
1894. Seven out of every nineteen years are
long ones containing thirteen Jewish months
Cards are exchanged ON the Hebrew New
Year by friends containing good wishes, and
much time is passed in the synagogues.

The re-eugagement of setley as a member
Of the Shenandoah base ball club will no
doubt be a surprise to many patrons of the
game, but they will be pleased with it if the
player shows that matrimony has served to
steady his head Setley is certainly among
the best all round players we have had here
this season, and when he behaves himself and
does not become silly he is an excellent
pitcher. He says that as he is married now
he intends to settle down and play ball for
the money that is in it. If he does this he
will soon regain the popularity he won when
he first came here from Danvllle. Setley has
always realized that he was foolish. In fact,
when he was leaving the base ball grounds
at Lakeside he shouted Here goes the $40, 600
player with a ten-cent head" The home
management always recognized his ability on
the diamond, but his erratic spurts more than
handicapped his ability and the public turned
on him. 1t is hoped, for his own sake, that
matrimony has put good sense into his head
and that he will play ball hereafter. OBE.
