HEBREW HIGH FESTIVALS.
Their Celebration Will Begin in
This City Tomorrow
Evening.
The New Year and Day of Atone
ment-E1ercises in All the
Syn gogues.

Tomorrow evening at sunset the He
brews of this City will usher in the new
year. Tuesday is the first day of the
ecclesiastical month Tishri, and it is the
first of the Hebrew high festivals, denom-
mated "Days of Ave-"
The new year and the day of atone
ment, which follows ten days later, are
universally observed by ell sections of the
Jewish ommnnity-orthodox, reform,
radical and conservative. 1t is fact that
has been often commented upon that these
two days have done much to keep Israel
ties together, scattered through the world
though they be. No matter how lax the
average Hebrew may be in regard to the
observance of the Sabbath and the minor
regulations of his faith, he can be de-
pended upon to see to it that Rosh
Hashana and Yom Kippur are set aside
for devotional exercises.
The Day of Atonement is, as its name
| implies day upon which the devout
Israeiite seeks pardon for the iniquities he
may have performed during the previoua
twelve months. 1t Is spent by all good
| Hebrews in the synagogue. a blast OF
the shofar, or cornet, announces the ter
mination of the days exercises and of the
| fast which has been kept up.
Five days after the Day OF Atonement
occurs the Feast of Tabernacles. This is
essentially q harvest festival, and is sur
yival of the Feast of Ingathering held in
ancient Judea at the time of the harvest
ing of the corn.
Divine services will be held on Rosh
Hashanab in all the temples and syna-
gogues of San Francisco as follows:

Slowly the tilth-reeking novels of China

AS they fall, dens of 1nfamy, pestilence-
breeding cesspools and shanties with inter-

The last of the buildings RACED yester-

of Health, at 743 Pacific street, has. been
pointed out for twenty years to visiting
strangers. 1t had many points of interest,

to string out his vocabulary to attentive
listeners as they gathered about him in

which reached out ever the sidewalk, was

This was once the home of Polish Jew

ticket in the Louisiana lottery, which in
those days was conducted honorably, and
which held what was called "extraordi-

the $500, 900 prize.
Contrary to the usually keen foresight
OF his race, Barold Immediately gave up
his clothing business to be conducted bv
another, but he still retained his lodgings
over the store. The ticket which brought
him $50 600 and subsequent ruin bore the
number $685." which he in the first heat
OF his JOY had painted in figures foot and
half high on his residence.
These were the days when the Comstock

City, and Barold did not escape 1t.
AT first fortune smiled upon him. He

even to trust it to the banks for safe
