HEBREW NEW YEAR
NEXT SATURDAY
Orthodox and Reformed
Jews to Celebrate.
BLOWING OF THE SHOPHAR
Curious Ceremony Required by Biblical
Injunction-No Work to
Be Done.

Hebrews of this city are preparing to
celebrate the Jewish new year. which
occurs on the 10th of this month The
celebration is held according To the
Biblical Injunction: And In the sew
enth month, on the first day Of the
month, shall ye have a holy convoca-
tioni no servile work shall we do; a day
of blowing the cornet shall it be unto
you."-Numbers. xix:L
1t is an exceedingly orthodox Jew
who is able to blow the "cornet'' or
"shophar" for the orthodox synagogue.
He must not have shaved his beard or,
indeed, committed so trivial an offense
as smoking a cigar on the Sabbath
When he is ready TO blow the "sho-
phar. which is used by both the ortho-
doX and the reformed sections. he takes
his place beside the rabbi, and, cover
ing his head with the "taliith''-a silken
cloth-blows the horn at certain inter-
walls during the ceremony, usually about
thirty times. The congrega ton. seated
on hard wooden benches, does not look
toward him when the ''shophar" is blown /;
Tor such an action IS considered a SIN
very little difference would it make
however, whether they look or not, for
the man is entirely covered. save the
hand in which the rams horn is held.
Rabbi Is Concealed.
The rabbi, too, must not have shaved
his beard, and is also covered with
silken -taIlith-" He stands with a cap
on his head and with the cloth hanging
over his shoulders, giving the effect Of
loose flowing robes.
In the reformed synagogue. whose
growth freedom from persecution has
increased more than all the cen
turtles of cruel repressions in Europe.
the ceremony is vastly different The
horn is blown only three or four times
during the ceremony. and the man hold
ing this Office may have shaved the
night before, and may light his cigar as
soon as he leaves the synagogue
He stands before the congregation
with barred head. and the congregation.
seated on comfortable. finely uphol-
stored seats. similar TO those used in
theaters. look upon the blowing OF the
rams horn.

DRINK AND CRIME.
The Very Striking Connection Be-

. Cleveland, o.

None who has observed or thought
upon the matter will question that
drink has been the chief element in
dlling the workhouse, not only in
Cleveland, but everywhere.
The connection between drink and
crime is far more than a sentimental
one.
very large proportion of the un-
fortunate were plain drunks" Many
have been sent up repeatedly for
drunkenness.
Aside from these it may be said that
few workhoLse offenses are committed
without the aid of whiskey or beer.
life of low crime is all but i'm
possible except for the debasing and
aeadening influence of drink.
The almost unfailing connection he
tween drink and crime is not acct
dental, says the Cleveland Press. 1t is
not the criminal propensity that leads
TO drink. but it is the drink that creates
or develops the criminal propensity.
Drink leads to crime because il anes-
thetizes the moral sense. distorts the
spiritual perspective and dethrones rea.

SELLING TO THE SOBER.
The Plea of Responsibility Which Is
Made by Some Saloons Is But
Trick of the Devil.

Perhaps they would tell us that they
sell only to the sober, never have
drunkards in their places. So much the
greater curse for which they will have
to answer in the great by and by. How
often it is said of some liquor seller:
He never sells to the drunkard, he
sells to the sober only" But is he
who kindles the fire Of hell in the
sober man, until a maddening, burning
appetite is created within him, then
turns his victim into the street, a
ruined specimen of humanity. a fit
lounger for the low GROCERY because
he sells to the sober only?
! Are not his sins trifold to those of
the low dive? asks DR.. ID. H. Mann. He
COWS the seeds of destruction in the
soJer man and when beyond control
the man in the low dive finishes up
the job of making a drunkard of him.
The boastful dealer congratulates him
self that he never sold him anything
when he was intoxicated Yet both
these establishments are licensed as
public necessities. Is it not a stain
upon the fair name of our boasted
country that such a desolating curse
should be tolerated, legalized and pro-
tected?
The dealer who sells to the sober
must be constantly gathering in new
recruits, and boys and young lads must
be drawn into the snares to keep the
hopper full while the mill grinds them
out, slowly but surely. Turn off the
old bummers and take in new recruits
Tor he never sells to the drunkard
