THE JEWISH NEW YEAR
The Celebration of RoSh Hoshanah
 Begins Tonight.

The CeleDratlOn or ROSh fOShandn
 Begins Tonight.
 The Jewish New Year, Rosh Hosh- anah, will begin at o'clock this even ing. It will be celebrated by services at the opera house from 6 until 7 o'clock, and tomorrow morning services will be begun at o'clock and continued until 12. The day will be strictly ob- served by all members of that faith in the city, and their places of business will be closed until tomorrow evening. Tonight is the beginning of the Jew ish month of Tishri, the first of the civil year corresponding to the seventh of the Mosaic, or ecclesiastical year. The New Year observance lacks somewhat the religious impressiveness of the cele- bration of the Passover. The dis tinguishing feature of the celebration in the synagogues is the blowing of horns in accordance with Leviticus XXIII "A.

TWO MORE TEACHERS.
The School Board Establishes Adoi-
 tiOnal Rooms.


 The board of school trustees yester- day decided 10 add two more grades, & sixth and third, to the4Central school. Prof. J. D. James was employed for the. former and Miss Mary Tyrell for the, latter. Both were connected with the schools last year, Prof. James as princi- pal of the west end schools. Two rooms will be immediately fitted up in the high school building for temporary use and as soon as possible permanent fur niture will be procured.
 At the beginning of the year two ad- ditional teachers were added to the force and it was thought that no more would be needed. The enrolment last Wednesday, however, exceeded that of corresponding day in the term of last year by nearly 200 pupils, and the sixth and third grade facilities proved to be utterly insufficient.

MANS CRUELTY. Story of Suffering Told
 by Two Fishermen. Their Signals Of Distress Ignored by Steamers. They Are Without Food and
 Water for 1S2 Hours.
Finally After Utter Exhaustion They Are Picked Up by Ship
 and Taken to Liverpool.

by the ASSOCldteu TT 3SS
 HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, Sept. 29.-One hundred and ninety-two hours in an open dory on the Atlantic without food or water, is the kernel of a terrible story of suffering told by Allen Ange and Boliel Marie today. They were fishermen on the French schooner, L. s. B., and lost sight of their vessel on August 2S, when she was about 100 miles from St. Johns. The fishermen knew they must be in the track of ocean steamers and arranged to keep in the vicinity as we'll as possible. They slept and watched by turns. A large fish basket was hung over the stern to keep the sea from breaking aboard.
 All the fog had cleared away on August 29, and not sail could be seen on the vast sweep of water until about dark on the 3lst. A large British steamer with a black and red funnel passed, bound west. Ange and Marie cried Justify for help. They shouted, waved their hands and raised their oars. They could see people on the steamer looking over the rail at them. The big boat kept on i,s way, paying no notice to the signals 'of distress from the dory.
 On Septem Der another westbound steamer with a funnel painted black. blue and yellow, passed in the morning. A third boat with the same style of funnel went by Tn the afternoon, and a fourth in the night of the same day. Ange says all four vessels saw their signals for help and ignored them.
 A bark passed the castaways in the dory on the morning of September in easy range of them, but took no notice. That was the fifth inhuman incident of that kind. Ange and Marie began to lose hope.
 Up to the 4th inst. hunger had not assailed them. They had vitality enough to withstand the deprivation of food for more extended period if necessary, but thirst began to assume the mastery. The suns rays, says Ange, fell upon their heads like streams of fire. Marie lost control of him self. He dipped up salt water Tn 8 fog horn and drank that. Again and again he drank. Ange endeavoring to dissuade him, but he said his friend turned on him like a snarling dog.
 The salt water made Marie delirious. He waved his arms and sang and laughed demoniacally. Several times he tried to jump overbard, but Ange re- strained him. Marie finally grew com atose and reposed in the bottom of the dory.
 Ange was himself so terribly ex- hausted at this time that he does not know what prevented him from jump ing overheard and ending his suffer ings. On September both men were lightheaded and suffering terribly. It was in that condition that the steamer Germond, outward bound, rescued them in the afternoon and took them to Liv. erpool, whence they sailed home eight days ago. Neither man can speak a word of English.

The Savage Opening.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 25.-At 2 :0S
the arrival of the champion in the ring
was announced. Hats and umbrellas
went into the air as Corbett, clad in q
large bath robe. walked through the
aisle. As Mitchell climbed into the
ring at 2:1215 Corbett's face was a
study. He eyed Mitchell with inter-
est and sardonic grin played over his
face, which said as plainly as words,
81 have you now." Mitchell was i'm
passive, neither smiling nor saying
anything. When Corbett threw aside
bis robe he appeared clad in nothing
but red, white and black trunk and
wore black shoes and dark brown
gloves. Mitchell wore white gloves,
black shoes and trunk, and his right
wrist was bandsged.
Corbett refused to shake hands and
time>was called at 2 80. It was short
sharp and decisive fight, too brief to
have any elements OF savagery in it.
1t was foregone conclusion from the
moment when the men stepped to the
center of the ring and Corbett's hatred
of the Englishman coming to the sur
face inhibited him from shaking hands
with the man who had abused and in
suited him. There was all but murder
in Corbett's eye. They faced each
other and an intense feeling af hatred
almost gave Corbett the fight as be cor
nered the Englishman, and when his
long arm shot out with the force of q
catapult,a there was vengeance in the
wind.
Mitchell showed wonderful clevernes:
in the beginning, crawling out of close
quarters into which the superior size.
reach and weight of his opponent bore
him, but there was no faltering in
Cor belts plan of the campaign and he
slowly surrounded the Briton raining
in upon his head and sides a shower oi
savage punches.
Arizona republican., 1894-01-26
1t was no ChantiIiy Fight.

There was despair in Mitchell's face
as he tried vainly to elude his agile pur-
surer and finally when Corbett closed
with him in an off corner Mitchell realiz-
ed that it was no longer possible for him
to escape the battery of the American.
He pluckily tried to spar and failing
sought to clinch. But Corbatt finally
beat him off with a sharp blow on
the side of the Jaw that brought the
Englishman on all fours. 1t was then
that the crowd broke loose in a wild
shout of applause. With the cheers OF
his friends ringing in his ears and with
memories of the past crowding fast
upon him, Corbett lost his head and
With the agility of tiger and the terri
BILE anger of lion, sprang toward the
pitiable Englishman on the rough
rosined platform and describing semi
circle with his right. tried to land a
knockout blow. Twice he tried this
but Mitchell's weak and wobbling blows

The Fatal Knockout Blow.

The big glove landed fairly and
squarely on Mitchell's face and the
Englishman fell prone upon the stage,
blood oozing from his mouth and stain
ing the pine boards of the ring. He
made one attempt to move himself and
then turned over and lay with his face
to the floor, utterly and absolutely
beaten, until his seconds ran over and
bore him to his corner and With the
cheers OF thousand people dimly riug-
ing in his ears, be sat in his corner try
ing to realize the suddenness and com.
pleteness with which all his hopes had
been blasted. The crowd remained
long enough to see Mitchell borne to
his corner.
While the fallen gladiator was re-
ceiving the consolation of his admirers
and the eympathies of Pony Moore, his
father-in-law, Corbett was being sur
rounded and crushed by frantic friends
all trying to shake hands at once. As
soon as the fight was over, Corbett
slipped on his trousers again, drew a
towel about him and stepping lightly
as when he entered the ring, made his
way slowly back to the old kitchen in
the yard, where he had spent an hour
before the fight waiting for Mitchell to
come. Mitchell drew his old grey
bathing gown over his shoulders and
aided by his seconds and friends was
led back to his cabin.

Patriotism Broke Loose.

Preparations were made to get the
fighters out of the city. There was a
great crowd around the dressing room
until the pugilists were ready to leave,
but a majority of the sports rushed
back to town as soon as the gong
sounded the death knell of Mitchelrs
pugilistic hopes. The streets of the
city are thronged with people, strang-
ers and residents alike all cheering the
triumph of America over England and
patriotism has broken loose in this old
Florida town. As the gigs and ph@tons
and tallyhos and hacks raced back af-
ter the fight to the city two miles away,
ladies and children put their heads out
of windows and came out on porches
of pretty residences and waved hand
kerchiefs in happiness over the result.
The hotels were jammed with people.
Brass bands were on the streets loudly
blowing for the victory of Billy Brady's
boy. The sports are all arranging to
follow the fighters out of the state and
the trains tomorrow will carry away
the greater portion of the men who
have come from all parts OF the coun-
try, risking their money and spending
their time to see the fight.
Arizona republican., 1894-01-26
Corbett Saved by His Friends.


There were cries of foul from the
crowd, although the sentiment of the
vast throng was plainly with the Amer
ican. Corbett's seconds, with presence
of mind, shot through the ropes John
Kelly ran to the side of the downfallen
pugilist and Corbett was dragged away.
Mitchell was conscious and knew that
Corbett was standing over him ready
to deal without mercy a blow that
should end the fight. When the Eng.
lishman finally struggled to his feet,
Corbett, without a tithe of mercy,
pounded his big gloves into the face OF
his foe until the latter staggered and
fell against the ropes and then lay al
most sprawling on the floor, blood
smeared all over his face.
When Mitchell was again on his feet
the men closed in Corbett's corner and
there was a savage exchange, and
when the gong sounded the seconds
the referee and half dozen in the
corner had to pry the enemies apart
It was hard work to bring Mitchell up
again, but Corbett sprang out when
the gong sounded. There was hardly q
moment of sparring. Mitchell tried
but once his last desperate play, to
tackle, but Corbett was remarkably
foxy and alert and soon crowded the
poor, beaten Briton to the ropes again
then with another Of his merciless jabs
set his rival fat on the floor.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 25.-The only
amendment to the tariff bill of I'M
portrnce adopted by the house today
was that of repeating the reciprocity
clause of the Mckinley law. The en-
tire day was consumed by New York
Democrats filibustering against the in
come tax proposition which it was
feared would be offered along with
other features internal of the iovenua
bill as an amendment to the Wilson
bill. Several Democratic speeches Sc
verely criticising the bill were delivered
and Democratic advocates of the in
come tex became so impatient this
afternoon over the course pursued BY
the New York mem bers that thev con-
cluded that the best way to settle the
question would be by holding caucus.
This Wilson finally agreed to and on his
motion the house recessed at 4 80 and
the fight was transferred from the open
house to the secret caucus.
At the evening session speeches were
made by Hicks, Rapu blican, OF Penn
