JEWISH NEW YEAR BEGINS
 NEXT WEDNESDAY EVENING
Interesting Services are to be Held at Temple Beth Or--SOmething About the Significance
 of the Occasion.

The tenth day of the seventh month Tishri-is the most important and most solemn of all the holy days in the Jew ish faith. It is the day of atonement, on which God will forgive you, declaring you purified from all your sins before the Lord Shall you purify yourself?" Q4ev. xvi30) It is a day of fasting prayer and repenting. confession of sins and republication to God for Forgiveness. The fasting begins on the ninth day of rishri, which will occur this year October 10 about sunset. and lasts till the beginning of night on the following day.
 There will be five services on the day of atonement-O evening service (kol Nidre); @ morning service (Shachrith: (3 additional service CMusaD; D after noon service (Mincha), and (5) concluding service (Neilol. An essential element in all these services is the confession. Not only must the worshippers confess their sins before God, but they must also re- gret that they sinned and resolve to ab stain from shining in the future. The confession is made by the whole cogre gatiCn collectively and those who have not themselves committed the sins regret that theN were unable to prevent them from being committed by others. The fJlm If tue confession Is therefore in the plural--"we have been guilty
 On the 18th day of Tishri. which will occur this year on October Is. will begin the celebration of the Festival of Sue coth-tahcrnaclcs-wh is so called be- cause of the commandment, 'ye shall dwell in boths seven days; all that are Israeites shall dwell in booths" The festival is also the feast of ingathering.
 The last two days of the festival are called Shemenc Azereth, the eiEht-day festival" and Simchath Thoro. 'Rcjoic- ing of tho Law" These two days, to- gether with the preceding seven days, form "the season of our rejoicing" The festival is kept from the 18th to the 2Gd of TiShr
 On the first seven days the meals are taken in booth called a Succo or Tab ernacle in commemoration of the wan derings of the children of Israel in the wilderness, where they could not build homes, but had to live in tents and en- joyed the special protection of the AL mighty.

The suddenness with which Montgom- cry was dropped from the circuit Of the Southern League last year after assur- ances had been given that this town would be member of the league, was not only disappointment but caused bit ter feelings in Montgomery against cer- tain magnates of the Southern League.
 Recently while discussing baseball in general and the prospects for next sea son-which are unusually bright-l learn ed the full story of the action of the league at the Chattanooga meeting last fall.
 It is history that is worth relating. As will be remembered, the plan was to drop Shreveport and substitute Mont gomery. Five signatures-I will not call names-had been affixed to a paper to be presented to the meeting in Chattanoo- ga. The routing of the different clubs of the league. for almost the entire sea- son. had been made over lines owned or controlled by the Southern Railway. Just before the Chattanooga meeting it was discovered that the dropping of ,Shreve- port and taking in Montgomery would mean that the routings of the Southern Railway would be disarranged and a good part of the routing would be made over the Louisville and Nashville Rail road.
 when the meeting was called Tn Cnat- tanOoga one of the magnates who had signed the paper, to take in MontgOm- cry, arose and said that while he had signed the paper he intended to vote against the proposition to drop Shreve- port The other four, who had signed the paper, voted as they mad signed, that is, to take in Montgomery and drop Shreveport. If the fifth member who had ''welched' had stuck to his word Mont gomery would have had league baseball during the season just closed. As it was there were four votes for Montgomery and four against instead of five for and three against.
 Montgomry in League.
 As to next season baseball prospects are unusually bright, brought about by combination of circumstances.
 Charlie Frank and his outlaw scheme has had a good deal to do with shaping up things, not only in Montgomery but in Southern haseball circles for 1903.
 Frank has made efforts to get Mont gomery in his outlaw concern next year, | but so far it looks as If he has nothing | but New Orleans, where he has secur d | Sportsmans Park the old league grounds | of several years ago.
 Alb Powell will have a team in the | Southern League and use the same | grounds next season that he has for | the past two years.
 Frank tried to get into Mobile but I . understand that Powell got in ahead of . him, secured the franchise and has a- , ready made arrangements to have Bobby l. Gilk3 manage the team.

HE CHOSE FRIDAY.
Both of President Roosevelt's Jour-
 neys Began on That Day.

neys Began on That Day. Washington Special Dispatch to Balti-
 more Sun.
 SuperstitiOusly inclined persons here are finding occasion for comment in the fact that President Roosevelt began his New England tour on Friday. and before his trip ended trolley car accident at Pittshcid. Mass. injured the President and killed member of his party.
 The President began his Western tour on Friday, again selecting the particular day of the week which is supposed by the supersutious to be unlucky. Before he had been a week on his journey he was compelled to go to a hospital. and the trip was discontinued It Is recalled by gentleman who was present at Oys- ter Bay when the arrangements for the N"w England trip were completed that Detective Craig. who soon after was killed, expressed great regret that the President should choose Friday for be- ginning his journey.
 'I cannot unde.stand,' said Craig, why 1t is that the President persists in iyins in the face of fate. l really wish he could be persuaded not to begin these joHrn ys ol Fridays. the unluckiese da" ot the week.

WHY MONTGOMERY WAS CUT
 OUT OF BASEBALL LEAGUE
Said That Railroad Route Caused Sudden Change Last Year--PrOSpeCtS for Baseball Next
 Season Are Good.

Montgomery from President kavanaugh of the Southern League and the indtca- tiOns are that this town will be mem Der of the 1903 Southern League. If Montgomery and Mobile are both taken III two towns will undoubtedly have to be dropped. It looks reasonably certain that Shreveport will drop out, but the name of the other town s puzzler that will keep everybody gu ossins mtIl the meet ing at Little Rock n December.
 An Interstate League.
 Letters were received here some days ago from a gentleman in Ensley in re- gard to organizing an Interstate League next season. The proposed circuit is Mo bile, Pensacola, Montgomery, Ensley, De- catur or Huntsville and Annston. If it is made eight clubs, Selma and Rome Ga, will be taken in.
 The salary limit will be fixed so as to admit just about such players as we had in Montgomery this summer. Protec- ton will be had under Class c and if a man has the appear Ince of fixing game his name will be Dennis as far as ever playing in any organized league again.
 Nothing will be done until after the meeting of the Southern League in Litte Rock.
 Close of Ball Season.
 The championship season of the Amcrl- can League ends today, or rather Mon day. for the non Sunday towns. and the Athletics of Philadelphia have won the pcnnant by q wide margin after one of the prettiest races ever known in the history of baseball.
 Ban Johnson is making strenuous efforts to get an American League club in New York next year and it is said that Sen ator Sulivan-Timothy Drydollar-wilI back it financially. Of course the Ma tional League people will fight it and it means the livelest baseball fight ever known since the advent of the American League
 The National League season closes on October and Fred Clark's Pittsburg team has the pennant without a struggle
 Now for Football Chaps.
 The next thing on the sporting pro- gram is college football and the chry- santhemum- haired chaps will have the call on public interest for the next four months.
 Only one game was scheduled for Montgomery this scason-the Tuscaloosa Auburn game-but after the miserable street railway service of last season the mana gers of the clubs changed the game to Birmingham. The Auburn -Sewance game will also bc played in Birmingham this fall, presumably for the same req son. Several years a go the Auburn-Sewan a game here had the largest attendance ever known at a football game in tho South and they would have had even a larger crowd this year.
