WORK OF ODD FELLOWS. ;.
The OfficiaI Receipts Discussed by the
SOVEREIGN Grand LOdge.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Sept. A-The Sow
ereign Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows held
three sessions to-day to clear UP the work
before adjournment tomorrow. A resolu-
ton was passed after strong fight as fol-
lows: After Jan. L. $685. no grand or SUI
preme body shall receive any credit for
old rituals destroyed or returned, but shall
pay full price for all rituals furnished"
During the afternoon the body considered
the famous official receipt certificate. A
number of amendments were offered, and
pending discussion the lodge adjourned for
supper, after which a secret session was
held. Settlement of the official receipt is
the most important question to be consid-
cred at this session. At present the price
of the receipt is So per hundred, and it is
proposed to lower 1t to 50 cents. Since the
last session, year ago. there has been
much dissatisfaction among the lodges
that many have not complied with the law
regarding the official receipt. There is lit
tie doubt that the Rebekah ritual will be-
revised, as there has been much dissatis-
faction over it.

No Records Broken, but One Rider
Broke His Shoulder Blade.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.-Two thousand
persons attended the l.. A. w. bicycle meet
at International Athletic Park to-day The
weather was cool and bracing, but the
races generally were slow and uninteresting
because of the unsatisfactory condition of
the track. Yesterdays rain left it heavy
and soggy. which, with a strong wind,
precluded the possibility of fast time There
were several spills. only one of which was
serious in its consequences, p. Nonbreck-
man breaking his shoulder blade in an up
set in the five-mile amateur event. The ma
jority of the contestants were from this
city, the outside professionals being repre-
scented by Mertens and Gardiner, of Chi
cago; +. c. Bald. of Buffalo, and Tom
Cooper. The chief interest centered in the
three professional events, Eddie Bald VIM
ming two of them, defeating Tom Cooper
and other well-known riders in the two
thirds mile open and one-mile open. The
surprise of the day was the easy victory
OF Geo. s. BAH in the two-mile handicap
professional. He had lead of zoo yards
over the scratch men and with w. r..
Throop of Washington, with a. handicap
OF lS0 yards, led the way all through the
race and were never approached. Fred
Schade and A. G. Moran defeated 3. L.
Wrenn and III. 4. Greer in a one-mile tam
dem amateur but the judges withheld the
award of the prizes because of the apparent
Indifference of the losing team in the race.

authority for the announcement, which is to
be taken in connection with the statements
persistently and repeatedly published since
she secured her divorce In May last as
to Mrs. Langtrys prospective marriage to
this distinguished head of an ancient house.
Il have recently received said Mr.. Nc
Pike from my client, Mrs. Langtry, no.
tice of her intention TO return to California
by the end of November. Prince Esther
hazy will accompany her end Immediately
upon their arrival here they Will be mar
ried in Lake county, l presume, for her
home is there. Because they have preferred
to ba married in this State it must not be
argued that either Mrs. Langtry or Prince
Estherhazy regards the formers divorce as
lacking in Legality in any other jurisdiction.
On the contrary they are advised by their.
solicitors in London that the decree granted
at Lakerort has freed her absolutely from
Edward Langtry, so that she may marry in
any part of the world il she chooses

THE JEWISH HOLIDAYS.
Rosh Hasbana, or New Years Service,
Next Sunday.

The holiday season among the Jewish
people will begin at sunset tomorrow even
ing The year celebrated is that of $685. The
Jews were among the first to celebrate a
new year, in the temple at Jerusalem. The
season begins ten DAYS of repentance and
ends with the dav of forgiveness. Rabbi
Messing, of the Hebrew Temple on Mar
ket street, calls them days of remem-
brance,' believing that 1t is well to bring
before people, who are naturally forgetful,
the religious ceremonies of the ancient peo-
pie who served one God. The following pro-
gramme of services has been arranged to
be held at the Indianapolis Hebrew Temple:
Rosh-Hashana: New Years service Sun
day evening, Sept. 26-Lecture, Man is
Mortal" Monday morning. Sept q, at $50
o'clock, lecture, 1.-The Threefold Call of
the Shofar"
Yom-Kipur: Day of Atonement Tuesday
evening, Oct. 5, at $780, lecture: ''Reconcil-
iation.S Wednesday morning, Oct. 6, at
o'clock lecture: "Predestination;" memo
rial service ct 3 o'clock in the afternoon;
Service at 5 o'clock.
Succoth: Feast Of Booths, Sunday even
morning, Succoth service at 10 o'clock
Sh mimic Azereth or Closing Feast, Sum
day evening Oct H. at 7:30 clock; lecture,
s'The Torah;'' Monday morning, closing
feast service at 10 o'clock.
All these services are given in the Eng
Iish language. The temple is usually crowd
ed with the members and visitors to occupy
the gallery. In the Orthodox congregation
on the South Side many of the people prac-
tice the feast of booths" and erect booths
in their yards, where they are open to the
clear sky, and they there follow the GUS
toms of the ancients as described in the
Scriptures. A beautiful description of the
closing feast is given in Zangwills Chill
dren of the Ghetto" There it mentions the
~l~IN1
observing the same service at the same
time. Rabbi Messing says that there are
over $4,000 negro Jews and large colonies
of dark-skinned Jews in India and other
countries.

SHUT OUT BY aUAKERs.
English Cricketers Retired without
Scoring Run.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept 24-The final ff-
teen minutes play to-day in the interna-
tional cricket match between the Philadel-
phia and English teams was sensational in
the extreme, the four batsmen for the Eng
lishmen being retired without scoring a
run. This is the first of two three-day
matches 70 be played between a picked
team of Philadelphians and Captain War
ners team of English amateurs. Nearly
all Of the men on the local team were MEM
bers of the Philadelphia team which made
a cricket tour through England this sum-
mer. Play began at noon to-day The
Philadelphians went first to bat and in
their inning scored 242 runs. The English
team then started their inning, and four of
their wickets We're lost in fifteen minutes
without obtaining single tally. Captain
Warner then made the point that it was
too dark to continue play, and the umpire
ordered stumps to be drawn. The loss Of
four wickets for no runs is probably with
out precedent in q match between high
class teams. The day was dull. cloudy ard
damp. and attendance about five hundred
persons.
