THE AMERICAN JEWS CALENDAR
INFORMATION ABOUT HOLIDAYS AND MONTHS As
OBSERVED BY HEBREWS.

A little book, entitled The American Jews
Calendar" has been published recently by David
Rubin, which contains some interesting infor-
nation Besides a list of the Jewish holidays it
gives the list of Jewish months and the time
when they begin according TO the Julian cal
endar
The Jewish civil year begins on the first day
Of the month Tishri which viii be September
n this year. This holiday is described in the
little book as being "a sacred day. No work is
done, and the day is announced and proclaimed
with blowing Of trumpets, to warn man that a
new year has begun. TO examine and amend his
conduct" The meaning Of each Of the holidays
is given in the same terse manner.
In his history Of the Jewish calendar the
writer says. Seven natural days constitute a
week The Jews have no names for the days
Of their week, but they number them in their
order"
II Is shown that the months had names un-
Ill after the Babylonian captivity. Previous to
that time they We're also simply numbered The
months are spoken Of as follows:
The months of the Hebrews are lunar ones
because the months begin with every new. moon
As the synCdical lunar month Is about twenty
nine and a half days. they made the months
consist alternately of twenty mine and thirty
days. In this manner the Jewish calendar was
regulated by the law of Moses. who appointed
the first day Of the appearance If the new moon
TO be a solemn day and The beginning of a new
month, but il appears that in the time OF Noah
the year consisted of twelve months. each Of
thirty days for in the account Of the Deluge
one hundred and fifty days are mentioned as
equivalent 10 i've months.
The Jewish year consists Of twelve lunar
months. amounting 10 3-4 days; but as this
makes the year eleven days short OF the solar
year an extra month has 10 be added every
third year.
The book contains the following account Of
the first synagogue in New-York:
In I6SJ the Jewish residents petitiOned leave
TO build a synagogue and sent it 10 the Gov
ernor and ne 10 the Mayor and Common Coun-
Gil who refused % grant it, on the ground that
worship was extended only 10 sectS processing
faith in Jesus Of NaZereth. but Governor Don
gan in the next year OF his term. granted the
permit, and IL 1851 th= Jews had place OF pub
lie worship, which stood the south side Of
what is zcy- beave=-st.. between Broadway and
Broad-st- The attendance was twenty families

Custer weekly chronicle. [volume] (Custer City, S.D.) 1890-1931, 1900-03-10

The Black Hills correspondent Of the
st, Paul Dispatch, under date Of March
9th, in speaking Of Mr.. Z. w. Martins
candidacy for congress, says: In the
past few days the friends Of Mr.. Mar.
tin have been urging him from all parts
of the Hills to give up his senatorial as
pirations and stand for congress. This
he has consented to do. Mr.. Martin
had the support of all of the Hills coun.
ties for senator and he will have the
same solid backing for congress. 1t is
believed that no other man in the Black
Hills could at this time hold the coun.
ties OF the Hills together. There will
probably be no other candidate for con.
gress in the Hills and Mr.. Martin will
go to the state convention at Sioux Falls
with a solid backing from the Black
Hills delegates. The announcement
that Mr.. Martin will run for congress
has simplified the political situation in
the Hills as well as in the state to a
great extent. With Congressman Gam
BILE trying for the senate in the eastern
part of the state, it is not to be expected
that congressional candidate will be
put forward from east of the river. The
party leaders of the Hills feel that Mr..
Martin has clear field for congress and
it is confidently believed that for once,
the Black Hills will have republican
representative in congress.

Democratic editors are trying to mako
an issue out of the small duty, which
under the Porto Rcan tariff bill, is
levied against the products of the Island.
This slight duty amounts to Is per cent
of the Dingley tariff rates, but instead
Of going into the Treasury along with
other custom duties it Is to be held out
for the special benefit Of Porto Rico.
Of course democrats who are bewailing
the Republican injustice of laying any
tariff against Porto Rico. carefully omit
this latter provision. The Porto Rican
tariff bill, should it become law in the
form in which it passed the House, will
give to the people of Porto Rico couple
of hundred thousand dollats a year for
improvement of general conditions
educat ional and otherwise, in the Is-
land, and yet will give them such com.
mercial relations with the United States
as to greatly stimulate the interchange
of commodities. while by the higher
duties imposed on articles coming into
the Island from other countries, it will
give us practically the entire market of
that Island. The duty collected on
merchandise coming into the United
States from Porto Rico. at full Dingley
law rates amounts to little over a mil
lion dollars a year and with collection
of but Is per cent Of the regular rates,
perhaps 100000 would be realized
which would be Immediately expended
for internal Improvements in the Is
land

Independent mining schools or min

Independent mining schools or min
ing departments Of State universities
have been established in the following
States and Territories California, Colo.
RADIO, Illinois, Indiana. Massachusetts
Michigan, Minnesota. Missouri, Mon
tana, New Jersey, New Mexico, New
York. North Dakota, Pennsylvania,
South Dakota, Tennessee, Virginia. Utah
and Wyoming.
"In number of States where such
schools have been established serious
difficulty has been experienced in pro
viding proper funds for the mainte-
nance, owing to the fact that the States
in which such schools were located did
not produce any considerable rmount of
mineral wealth, owing to which fact
local public sentiment is not strong
enough in favor of such schools to Sc
cure adequate funds for their maintsn-
ance:
"a knowledge Of this condition Of af-
fairs has undoubtedly operated to pre-
vent the establishment of schools of
mines and metallurgy in other states
where stud ents are anxious to have the
opportunity of instruction in mining and
metallurgical studissy but whore, as be-
fore stated, the absence Of mining in.
dustries In the State in which such
schools are located, and the fact that
graduates of such colleges ordinarily
find employment in other States con-
tanning mineral wealth, has prevented
the establishment of such schools.
"In view of these facts it seems quite
proper that the Federal Government
should expend a portion ofthe fund re-
ceived from the sale of public lands, in
order that the youth of all the States
may have an opportunity for instruction
in those branches which are 30 import
ant in the development of the mining
resources Of the nation.
"And as thus amended the committee
recommends that the bill do pass"
The senate has already passed SINH
liar bill some days ago. The measurs
is of general interest to all states hav-
ing mineral lands within their borders.

Senator Pettigrew is not meeting With
great encouragement 10 his efforts ex.
tended to embarrass the administration
in dealing with outlying territory. A
few days ago he offered an amendment
to the Hawaiian government bill pro
vIdng for the extension of the suffrage
to practically the entire people of the
islands, but it was voted down by a
pronounced majority, and the efforts of
the senator to secure a yea and nay vote
on it was refused, so few OF the arnt;es
coming to his aid that the requisite
number could not be obtained to order
record vote.
