Commences Today" "Hanucka," or Commem-
 oration of the Dedication of the Temple
 The Israelites will begin today their "Hanucka." or the commemoration of the dedication of the temple.
 The holiday continues for eight days According to Jewish writers. during the time of the second temple, Antio- chus, tyrant of the Greek nation cruel ly oppressed the Jews wherever they were subjected to his power. A resist ance was made against this tyrant and the Grecian army was defeated and the Jews were again allowed to go to their temple When the temple was reopened and consecrated for the worship of God the oil used for the golden candlestick was found to be very deficient in quan- tity and scarcely enough to suffice for one days service, the Greeks having de- filed the greater part of it. This small quantity however, by miracle of the Almighty. continued to burn for eight days when fresh oil was procured. In commemoration of this the Israelites every year. on the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month of the Jewish calendar. at night commence burning taper, add ing another for every evening until the conclusion of the festival
 There will be services commemorating the occasion at Temple Emanuel on Sum- day evening. The Sunday school chill dren will take part, assisted by the choir. A programme Is now being arranged for the services by Rabbi Morris Newfeld.
 On next Monday evening the ladies of the temple will give children's ball in honor of the holiday.
 An invitation is extended to the public to attend the services on Sunday and tho regular services on Friday evening.
