FEAST OF THE PASSOVER
Important Hebrew Holiday Besan
 ening


 e Three thousand, two hundred and nlteen II years ago, about 100000 Israel ltes were led out of Egypt by Moses and delivered from the tyranny of Pharaoh, after bondage which had lasted for more than four centuries Beginning last night about 13.OOO OOo Hebrews all over the world began ommemorating the event. This is one of the most important holidays in the Hebrew calendar. Purim. which came several weeks ago. is as a holi- day somewhat like Passover in origin, for in both instances the Hebrews were saved from extermination.
 The word Passover is the equivalent of the Hebrew word pessach. meaning to pass by to spare. The Bible con meets it with the fact that when the angel of death went forth to destroy the first-born of the Egyptians he passed over the Tsraelites, on the lintel of whose doors the blood of a lamb had been sprinkled. Ever since that time the holiday of Passover has been celebrated in the month of the exodus, the 18th to the 21st day of Nissan, which is about the time of the first moon of the spring.
 During the week of the holiday 1t is considered a sin to eat any bread that contains 1eaven. liquors, coffee and many other articles. Only the first and last days of the holiday are re- strfctive as to business and on these days no manner of business is carried on, at least by the orthodox Hebrews, who observe the holiday as their an cestors did. Services were held last night in the several places of worship in this city.

STENOGRAPHY PUPILS
 OCCUPY COURT RoomS

eo. some t enterprising stenographer has 4or 4o the past few weeks been utilizing Ne ene courts as school for his pupils. NO one finds any objection to tbis not even the few court reporters whose space Ill the court, specially provided TOT them, is hooked by the fair nuniI stenographers, for it seems that thev are not content with possessing the great privilege of wearing their hafs on In court but must leave their dress samples, their smelling salts. their pocketbooks, their lovely pencils, their delightfully."- perfumed handkerchiefs their exquisitely carved hat pins, their antique hair combs. and silver hair pins on the table to tempt the hard worked messengers and janitors. Even the newspaper artists enjoy their presence for it is great pleasure 10 them to have to try to get glimpse of a witness on the stand through felt hats decked with ribbons, laces and flowers, and with brims yard wide.

DESK UP FOR VOTES.
Local Clubs and Societies i'm a Lively
 Contest.

The most exciting voting contest, probably, that has ever been held in Waterbury will be that between local clubs and societies at the big union fair of the Knights of Columbus which will open next Monday evening in City hall. The contest will be for a magnificent roll top desk, which will be awarded to the club or society re- ceiving the largest number of votes. Already the Elks, tlse Eagles, the. A. o. H., the Foresters, the St Joseph's T. A. B. society and others have signi- fled their purpose to enter, and with the spirit of rivalry that is sure to arise the tide of voting will undoubt- edly run high.
 The engagement of the sensational aerial cyclist Will H. Hill has already caused much talk. and there will un- doubtedly be thousands around the City hall Monday night to see him make his first trip across and back on wire stretched from the roof of City hall to the roof of Hodsons building opposite. MT HiIl has made many longer and higher rides than this. the most notable being his trip across Nj agara Falls last summer. Owing to the length of this ride and the un- avoidable swaying of the wire 1t was with the utmost peril that MT Hill was able to accomplish the ride. In- side the hall the Casting Dunbars will give their sensational perform ance every evening, and there will also be other features of amusement.
 The demand still continues for combination books which entitle pur- cfasers to shares in the distribution of $l,5OO in cash, with capital prize or $lOOO in gold. but there are plenty of books yet to be had. They can be secured at $l.OO apdece at Strobel's Jewelry store. Finn's shoe store. Dun- cans drug store or from any member of the local councils
