THE JEWISH NEW YEAR.
Hogan mt Sunset Last Evening-Will
BE Observed To-day.


The Jewish Ncw-Year was ushered in
last evening at sunset, and from that
time until this evening at sunset will be
a day than which but one Is more hall
lowed of all Jewish holy days. This Is
the Day Of Atonement, which comes on
the 18th OF this month, and Is pre-emi-
nently the day OF meditation and prayer.
The advent of the first day OF the New
Year was celebrated very appropriately
by the congregation Of Beth Ahaba Syna-
gogue, OF this city. last evening. 1t hap
pened that this congregation had been
worshipping at their present site just fifty
years and Rabbi f. n. Callsch made the
service commemorative OF both occasions.
"reminiscences" was the theme OF his
discourse. which included a history OF the
congregation during the half century. 1t
was eloquent and tender. -Four ministers
besides DR.. Calisch have served this con-
gregation.
At the days service Il Is customary to
blow the Shofar or rams horn, save only
when the New Years day falls on the
Jewish Sabbath. This exception holds In
all orthodox synagogues, so the Shofar
will not be heard to-day in Beth Ahaba.
Yesterdays celebration marks the begin
ming Of the year 1853, dating from the
Genesis The Hebrew name of the holi-
day is Rosh ha Sana Ohe beginning OF the
year, 1t is also called the day Of memo
rial, as II is the day on which the de-
crees for the year are made. IL is the
first day of the religious year, though not
Of the civil year, which begins in the
month Nissan, at the Feast Of the Pass
over. The first day Of the religious year
is determined by the new moon OF the
seventh month. the month Tishri. Rosh
ha Shana Is the first Of cycle OF re-
ligious festivals. On the 10th day or the
month Tishri comes the Day of Atone
ment. the intervening days between the
1st and the 10th being days of penitence.
The third festival. Succoth, the Feast OF
Tabernacles, or the harvest feast, Is cele-
brated five days after the Day OF Atone
ment.
The service will begin at 1920 this morn
ing. DR.. Calisch will speak on "A United
Effort"

NOW FOR A STATE LEAGUE.
There il n Possibility of Richmond's
Leaving the Atlantic.

There appears to be strong proba-
bility Of the Virginia State League OF
baseball being revived. Indeed, IL is al
most assured and the magnates who were
interested in this league before the At
lantic League supplanted it will meet in
Norfolk Monday to organize.
There seems too, 10 be AT least a posi-
bility Of Rchmond's being represented in
this league, for the venture this year in
the Atlantic has been a losing one to the
owners of the capital city franchise, and
1t is thought that State league would
pay better.
Certainly there will be more interest
in a State organization than In the At
lantic League, for with six clubs lighting
for the pennant in communities close to
each other there Is more excitement for
the rooters than in a league constituted
as is the Atlantic.
Lynchburg Roanoke, Portsmouth Pc
tersburg, and Newport News are certainly
ready 10 enter the State League. and
Norfolk would willingly come in if Rich
mond did. Petersburg would, IL is under
stood. stand aside for either Richmond
or Norfolk. so that both could go into
the league and make IL a siX-club circuit
as of yore.
The meeting Monday will settle matters.
and II may be that the cranks here will
be given some exciting baseball next
year
