LOOTED BY THIEVES.
Residence Of w. C. Stegner Ran
sacked by Burglars.

The residence of W. C. Stegner. at "A
East Twelfth street, was entered by
burglars some time during Sunday morn
ing. The thieves. after making thor
ough search Of the place, escaped with
about $25 in cash.
The house is near the Central Park M.
E church, where the family attended
divine services Sunday morning. When
they returned it was discovered that
thieves had obtained an entrance by
breaking the lock on the back door.
Everything in the house was turned up
side down.
A small safe belonging to the Central
Park church Sunday school was rified,
but contained only five cents. Then the
housebreakers turned their attention to
a desk owned by A. w. Stegner, from
which they secured between $25 and $50.
When the family returned from church
it was discovered that some one had
obtained an entrance because of the
aroma of cigarette smoke that hung
around. Apparently the thieves were
frightened away. The safe was found
Yesterday in the rear Of the Church Of
the Good Shepherd. and returned to the
Stegners by Rev. w. C. Pope.
Several of the neighbors reported to the
police yesterday that they had seen a
boy and man hanging around the Steg-
ner house before the robbery.

ALL BIDS REJECTED
RATE OFFERED FOR TRANSPOR-
MENT CONSIDERED TOO HIGH
FIGURES WERE A SURPRISE

Representatives of Four Competing
Roads Consult With Gov. Lind
of Mayor Kfefer and Mayor Gray,
of Minneapolis, Who Hope to Get
n Flat Rate of $50.
BIDS FOR the transportation of the Thfr-
teenth regiment from San Francisco to
st. Paul were opened by Gov. Lind in
his office at the state capitol yesterday
All bids were rejected, as the rate made
by the Great Northern, Northern Pacific.
Chicago, st. Paul & Omaha and Chicago.
Milwaukee Sc st. Paul. the four roads
| competing for the business, was consid-
cred too high. An agreement between
the interested roads was effected by
which the rate was made $31. rs in all the
bids submitted, based on fare of S2S. rs
plus So for tourist sleeper, four men to
a section.
The figures made by the railroads were
a surprise, as it was thought that a lower
rate could be secured. Representatives
of the roads having in bids were present
and a discussion resulted in no agree
| ment. All bids We're rejected and the
matter was put in the hands of Mayor
k1efer, Of st. Paul, and Mayor James
Gray, Of Minneapolis, with instructions
to accept the first bid offered of $50,
based on a fare of s26 and 81 additional
for tourist sleeper, three men to a sec.
ton.
Gov. Lind is hopeful of securing low,
er rate and is of the opinion that consid-
ering the fact that the large number
of men to be brought home makes a
desirable piece Of business to secure
that one or the other of the Western
roads will make a better offer. The
road which gets in the first low bid will
| probably secure the transportation of the
whole regiment.
Yesterday being Labor day, and the
banks being closed, the money to the
credit of the Thirteenth regiment fund
did not increase materially. A number
Of people called at the Commercial club
and made reports and by o'clock sew
eral hundred dollars had been received,
enough at any rate to assure the $1,000
| mark.
| At the meeting of the mayors interested
in the homecoming of the Thirteenth
regiment, with Gov. Lind yesterday,
there was prolonged discussion. At
first the representatives Of Saltwater,
Red Wing and ST. Cloud refused to come
into the agreement made between ST.
Paul and Minneapolis last Saturday con-
| corning the reception of the boys.
Mayor Arneson, of Saltwater, at last
signed the agreement and it is thought
the other cities will act in harmony.
This practically assures the carrying out
of the agreement made Saturday between
the Twin Cities

JEWISH sEw YEAR.
In the Jewish. Gal ndar To-day Is the
Flraf of the Year.

First Of tsse Year.
One of the greatest festivals Of the He
! brews began last night at sunset in
Chicago and today all true sons of
Abraham will gather in the synagogues
for the feast of the New Year. Tuesday,
the first day Of the year in the Jewish
calendar, is also the first day of the
month Tischri, which, according to
| Christian reckoning, is not the first
month of the year, but the seventh. By
| the Hebrew chronology, however, the
year $3.50 after the creation began last
| night at sunset.
| The New Year Is a solemn day for
| pious Jews, for they believe that then
| God sits in judgment and assigns to each
man his fate and his fortune. There is
| fasting among some Of the Jews, but the
day is observed by congregations in
solemn services only. The Day Of
Atonement comes ten days later. That
is also one of the most sacred of Jewish
festivals.
There are many peculiar ceremonies
associated with the Jewish New Year,
the Rosh Hashonah, In many OF the
synagogues a rams, horn will be blown
by the one who reads the prayers. There
is a tradition that this custom has de-
| scended from the incident Of the substitute
ton of a ram when Abraham was about
to STAY his son Isaac. There is theory
which would not please the orthodox
Jew. It is that the custom was one
which existed among the Babylonian
shepherds to greet sthe new moon and
that it was adopted by the Hebrews.
The tradition Is preserved by the music
Of trumpets and trombones.
One Of the Solicitations among the
Jews on this day is: May you be
! written for good year." 1t seems
probable that the Hebrews adopted the
belief on which this custom Is based
from the Assyrians. The Assyrian year
| began in the autumn, and the gods were
supposed then to hold council where
by an oracle the lot of mankind was
determined.
Sept. IA is the Day Of Atonement or
Yom Kippur. That is day when there
are solemn services for publication and
when large sums are given for charity
In the evening on that day there is a
service in the church. 1t Is also a day
for a. service in memory of the departed
This Is held in the afternoon and not
only members of the congregations and
prominent Jews are memoralfzed, but all
the great men who have died within a
year are spoken Of
The Fast of Gadaliah, which is on the
Jewish calendar for Sept. g. is almost
obsolete. It originally was held to COM
memorate the death of a ruler who died
"a his people were about to move. The
following Sunday, according to the cal
endar, should be observed as harvest
festival. but this custom, too, has de-
clined in interest since the Jews ceased
to be the farmers of Palestine.

sENsELEss STREE.

The situation which the latest press dis
patches portray in the Transvaal is very
disheartening, coming as 1t does on the
very heels of the recent peace confer
ence at The Hague. Judging by the ex-
cited condition of popular sentiment
among the Beers and British, nothing
short of display by Mr.. Chamberlain
of the highest form of courage will pre-
vent Serious trouble. Such display of
courage would inevitably be denounced
as cowardice by both friend and foe.
and, accordingly, there is but little hope
that 1t will be exhibited.
There is absolutely no real occasion for
strife between the Beers and the British.
If war should break out, it will be fouond
before much blood has been shed that
with GOODNESS and good judgment every
difficulty in existence could have been
adjusted. The present condition can be
stated in few sentences. The Beers
are without doubt prepared to concede
all the reforms demanded by the repre-
sentative of Britain as to the franchise
and otherwise. They couple the granting
Of those concessions, however, with a
demand that thereafter the independence
of the Boer republic shall be recognized
by England. England really finds the So
called suzerainty over the Boer republic

reason, involving her interests in South
Africa, why she should possess this badge
CT a false sovereignty with reference to
the Dutch-African republic than there Is
why she should possess 1t with reference
to the Orange Free State. Eng1ishmen
in their senses would yield up the I'M
substantial thing readily in exchange for
the concessions which it is now conceded
the Beers are willing to make to the uit-
landers But the excited condition Of
popular sentiment in both countries rem
ders such an adjustment at this time
virtually impossible.
Here then Is another delightful illus
lrdJlOn
Of adjustment Of national differences.
Both parties begin by divesting them
selves Of their senses. This line of con-
duct passes by the name of patriotism.
And until a greater or less number of
bIameless men are murdered in hot blood
there will be no possibility Of passing
patriotism began or folly ended.
All the parties to this unfortunate con-
troversy are to blame more or less. But
the chief blame must rest on the Shout
ders of Mr. Chamberlain If war results.
Representing an all-powerful nation deal
ing with a handful Of uncultured men,
he has accepted all the small provocation
to violence that has been held out to
him He began by slamming the door
the form Of arbitration or otherwise,
and he has ended by publishing, in gar
bled form, the diplomatic correspondence
between the prospective eombatants, thus

for blood which now prevails

up the hope that the ultimate outcome
may be the granting of the fullest po-
litical rights to the uitIander population.
