Perhaps the characteristic cere
mony of the day, at least the one
fraught with the most interest te
the observer. is the blowing of the
trumpet. - The trumpet is the
traditional rams horn. It is from
II to Is inches in length and in
shape resembles a scimitar. In the
orthodox synagogues instead of the
horns, the tones Of the organ her
aid the birth Of the new year.
New Years Day, or Rosh Hasho-
ma, is but the first day of a session
of religious significance. That ses-
sion lasts ten days. It ends with
the ''Yom Kippur, or day of Atone
ment, which this year will fall up
on Sept. 18th. ''Yom Kippur" is
observed by strict fast of "a hours.
The Jewish calendar is a lunar
one. The first day of it's every
month is so calculated as to be iden-
teal with or but one day after the
appearance of the new moon. To
keep this relation the months con-
sist of29 or 30 days. But a II
month year would fall far short in
this arrangement of the solar year,
and would displace the calendar in
relation to the seasons. To adjust
this it was arranged centuries ago
that an extra month OF 20 days be
inserted seven times in 10 years.
And so this survival of the world s
oldest civilization is to-day as accur-
ate and remarkable piece of astro-
nomical calculation as the gregorian
calendar.

THE REDWOOD GAZETTE.
WEDNESDAY, SEPT. -, 1899.
THE JEWISH NEW YEAR.
Some of the Interesting Points
Leading Up to the Event.

The closing of The New Store on
Monday evening of last week-just
at sunset-and keeping it closed
until at just sunset Wednesday
evening, in order to give the Messrs.
Goldfus and Louis Perlman an OPP
portunity to celebrate the Jewish
New Year, recalls quite history to
the mind of those who know any
thing about Jewish matters.
On that Monday evening began
the celebration of -Hashono,
which is New Years Day. The
world, according to the Hebrew
calendar, was $500 pears old. And
all the Hebrews in the world cele-
brated the event. On that day they
.abstained from business and attend
ed their synagogues. For the Jew
ish New Year is a day of thanks
giving as we'll. The Hebrew calen-
dar is dated from the creation,
which is considered to have taken
place 1850 years and three months
before the Christian era.
While all the Hebrews observe
the day the strictly orthodox Jews
keep two days, in order to be on
the safe side. This custom on their
part is the result of slowness of
communication between the people
in the olden time, when those who
inhabited the remote parts of Judea
were obliged to wait "a hours be-
fore they could receive word from
Jerusalem of time of celebration of
a festival. This intelligence was
conveyed from the holy city by a
system of flash lights which illumi-
mated the night skies for miles and
miles around.
The methods of observance of
this holiday differ as between the
liberal congregations and the or
thodox. The liberal congregations
have discarded the solemn ceremon-
les and Anticipated forms that ortho-
doxy still reveres. Their observ-
ance of New Years is marked by a
rigid simplicity, that bears testi-
mony to their respect for old tradi-
tons and the philosophy Of their
religion.
The services in the liberal
churches consisted mainly of pray
ers, reading from the Bible, hymns
and responses by the choir. OF all
the prayers offered none surpasses
the fervent eloquence of this:
Sovereign of the Universe, O
fulfill my requests for good; further
my desire and grant my petition
forgive all mine iniquities, and the
iniquities of my household, through
thy pardon granted in benignity
and mercy; cleanse me from mine
inquities and transgressions. G

kELSEY'S BAD DREAM.

Editor Kelsey of The Olivia Times,
who left the r notice of meeting of
commissioners on the Bird Island
petition for the removal of the coun-
ty seat, out of his paper, with the
purpose of invalidating the call,
sees in the construction of the Gulf
& Manitoba railroad a poor chance
for moving the county seat toOlivia,
and is forced to the belief that it is
another gold mine sailing or butter
milk mine fake. Kelsey should take
ride down the Beaver creek val
ley, and allow his eyes to rest on
the grade there-none nicer in the
State, and then continue writing
editorials. Here is what Kels. says
in a recent issue:
"The Associated press lately con-
veyed the intelligence to it's patrons
that the railroad which a Redwood
newspaper is engaged in building
in it's columns to Beaver Falls is
about to undergo reorganization.
The concern is now as dead as max
erel in kit, and until it's affairs
get into other hands, the prospects
of it's construction are most remote.
The reports of this work remind
The Times that it was not many
years ago a gold mine was opened
in the Minnesota bluffs near Red
wood Falls. When the goodly peo-
pie of that village had nothing else
to do, they paid the "mine" visit
No one ever sailed the mine, for
obvious reasons. But the "mine"
received great deal of attention in
local papers at the time as we'll as
the State press. Several capitalists
were induced to invest money in
the hopeless undertaking. It has
since been abandoned, and now the
subject is never mentioned. The
railroad project from Redwood to
Beaver and thence northerly is of
the same nature as the Redwood
gold "mine" fake. It exists in the
mind of an energetic country cor
respondent of the city press, it
helps to fill up space. and proves
the worth of the individual, whose
bread and butter depends upon his
labors. Just at present the story
has been especially valuable in the
effort to distract attention to the re-
moval contest.

dian History to Visitors.
From the st. Peter Herald.
Rev. Mr.. Knowlton of Redwood
Falls, who has charge of the church
at the lower agency, was one of the
speakers and in a graphic manner
told the Indian side of the story.
This story was CLEANED from the
Indians in the last three years and
was perhaps the first time that it
has ever been related. The story
really goes back to 1851, but the
more immediate story commences in
1861. That year the Indians were
gathered at the agency to get pay
for their lands on this side of the
river. They understood the money
was there. The feeling towards
the government was not what il
should have been and several bands
were very hostile, some pronounced
in their hostility, others, sly and
cunning, were reticent and less
pronounced. Most foxlike of all
the "braves' was Little Grow, who
attempted to defer the massacre for
another month when large per-
centage of the men of the valley
would have been out of the country.
Waiting for their pay grew mo-
notonous. They had gathered by
the thousands; they had eaten all of
the food they had gathered; they
were forced to subsist on the game
of the woods and prairie. They
were hungry and impatient. The
chiefs ran accounts with the trad
ers. The latter demanded that the
Indians sign away their rights to
the lands. They refused and the
post traders denied them further
credit. One of the post traders
gave them answer that ''the sum-
mer was yet young and they could
eat grass. He was among the
slain and when his body was found
his mouth had been stuffed full of
grass.
Pow. vows were held, to which no
white men were admitted. These
concerned an uprising. The older
heads held out against it. Little
Grow urged that it be deferred.
This prevailed and would have OBJ
tanned but for an incident which oc-
Cured at the time, an action which
percipitated the outbreak. The in
cident as related by Good Thunder
and other chiefs was in effect as
follows: Four young men left the
upper agency on hunting expedi-
ton. Night came on and in a corn
field they found nest of eggs. A
dispute arose. They went to the
home of the white man to ask for
the eggs. The white man grabbed
his gun and commanded them to
leave. They left but returned, shot
him and his family. A couple of
white men appeared on the scene
and shot the Ipdians. The flame
was famed, the uprising began and
the massacre followed.
The story was an interesting one.
Mr.. Knowlton spoke of the Indians
of to-day. He said that they were
not angels incarnate, but as people
they seem to average. Some are
good; some are bad; some are indus
trious, some are lazy; some have
straight tongues, others are liars.
''But with their virtues and their
faults they have our form; ]. regard
them as brothers and I do for them
what l can.
