The latest news from the southern
part Of the Republic of Mexico is that
the people are less alarmed over the
shower OF ashes than when the sun
was obscured. In some places rain has
come and cleared the atmosphere Sub

but loud and prolonged explosions are
frequent. Scientific men in Tabasco
say the force required to precipitate
such an immense quantity OF ashes

FEAST OF TABERNACLEs,
Celebration Of the Autumnal Festival
Which Occurred Yesterday.

The feast of tabernacles. called Succoth.
was celebrated yesterday in the Jewish syn
agogues of the city with appropriate serv-
Ices The festival lasts seven days, begin
ming with the fifteenth and ending with
the twenty-first Of Tisri, but only the first
day Is considered as a holy day. The week
Of the festival is followed by an eighth day
called Shimini Atzereth, or closing feast,
terminating the cycle of feasts that began
with the Jewish New Year. The scriptural
passage referring to the celebration Of the
festival Is found in Leviticus, xiii, 39-43.
According to this passage the festival has
g twofold meaning. 1t is an autumnal fes-
tival, the feast Of ingathering," time of
religious JOY and thanksgiving on account
of Gods blessings in nature. visible in the
garnered fruits Of the trees and the fin
ished harvest. But at the same time the
festival Is connected with the remembrance
of the benign guidance with which God pro-
tected and preserved Israel during the forty
years wandering in the desert. 1t was
therefore commanded that the Israelites
should during the seven days Of the festi-
val live in booths or tabernacles.
In the liturgy the day is also celebrated
as the beginning of the winter season by
adding an extra prayer for rain.
