NEW YEAR OF THE JEWS.
1t Will Begin at Shutdown This
Evening.

According to the Jewish calendar
the year 1865 will begin at sunset this
evening. 1t is their claim that their
calendar commenced with the crea-
ton of the world.
The Jewish day, unlike the calendar
day, which begins at midnight, begins
at sunset so their new year begins the
minute today's sun is lost to view. The
orthodox members of the faith strictly
observe the, religious ceremonies, and
all exchange New Years cards, visits
and have their family entertainments
and reunions. Rabbi Mayer, being
asked to explain the meaning of Rosh
Hashonah, said:
"Rosh Hashonah, the Jewish New
ear festival. is not only joyous day,
but also a solemn day. In fact, the
first ten days of the month of 'Tishre,
from the New Year to the day of
atonement, are called the solemn days
of the Jewish calendar. Solemn, be-
cause the New Year IS a day of judg-
ment. We pass in review our achieve
ments no less than our aspirations. All
other festivals speak to the Jew of his
peoples great past. This memorial
day speaks to him of his own past. 1t
bids him take retrospect of the days
that are no more. so that the future
be not the past repeated, but the past
bettered.
1.-The New Year festival sounds the
keynote of a new and higher life. On
that day every one fashions new re-
solve to live nobler. No matter what
the shortcomings of the past year
were, the new year shall not be one of
pledge broken nor of religion dishon-
ored. 1t emphasizes the thought that
God is the sovereign of the universe.
Gods universe is turned to righteous
ness and keyed to justice. Made in
the image of God, man must make his
life divine. Therefore on this day men
and women, who for year long have
shut their eyes that they may not per-
ceive the truth and made their ears
heavy that they hear not rebuke, open
their heart to the appeals that
prophets have sounded and accept the
kingdom of God.
with the services of Rosh Has
honah are introduced three pieces of
distinctively Jewish music, rendered
by male voices. The officiating cantor
wears the kittel, or robe of death-a
white linen, shroud-as is required Of
him. The worshippers wear the talitn
a square garment of silk or wool, in
which, beyond the prescribed ma
terial, there is much latitude of choice
in color and decoration. Generally
the talith is white, with a blue border
but it is also very often striped with
black, yellow or blue, and is even
richly ornamented with gold OCCASION
ally.
1.-THE next solemn duty before the
people of Israel is the observance of
the grievous fast of Yom Kippur. AT
s o'clock on the evening of October
they will assemble in the various
temples, and many of them will re-
main there, continuously praying and
abstaining absolutely from food, and
even from water, until o'clock in the
evening of the succeeding day, or at
least as long as nature will support the
strain. They will all wear the kittel
then, the solemn reminder of their
mortality

Nh. HARRIS EXPLAINS.
Shows Why shortage Is shown in
G. A. r.

Emporia, Kan. Sept. 29.-In an in
terview here today Past Department
Commander Chas. Harris stated that
there is no shortage in the accounts on
funds of last years administration of
the department of Kansas G. A. r.
After the accounts had been audited,
q small sum of money still remained
in the hands of Adjutant General Be
dell; some SIP which had not been
turned over but which was accounted
for as being in his hands. Later it
was found that check sent to Cherry
vale as settlement in the tent account
had not reached the parties it was
sent to. This amount $2S.2O, had
been checked as paid. When Mr..
BedelIs attention was called to the
fact that the Cherryvale people had
not received the check sent them he
assumed the debta and told the audit
ing committee that he would make the
matter good. In all there was some
$50 which Bedell has assumed to pay.
AS to unpaid bills left over from
the last administration there can be
paid by one administration or the
other is immaterial, as all the bills are
paid from the same funds and if one
bill happened to lay over, it made no
difference, as the cash to pay it was
turned over to the next adminiStra-
ton. The only bill not, paid so far as
Mr.. Harris knew was one of 500 for
badge for Past Department Comman-
der Smith, which it was supposed had
been paid by Smiths administration.
Past Adjutant General Bedel1 is re-
sponsible for the amount named above
and has assumed the debt and he has
been accepted by the council of ad-
ministration for it. Past DEPARTING
Commander Harris, while he has
never handled a cent of the funds,
considers himself, as the head of the
order at the time. responsible and on
learning of the matter, assured Com
mander Coney that he would see that

PACKERS LOSE.
Court Sustains the Demurrer to Plea
in Abatement.

Chicago, Sept. 29.-Federal Judge
Otis ]. Humphreys today sustained the
demurrer filed by U. S. District Attor-
ney Morrison to the pleas in abate-
ment made by packers seeking to
have indictments for alleged restraint
of trade declared void. Judge Hum
phrey said he made his decision on
broad grounds without taking into
consideration technicalities which the
government advanced against the plea
in abatement.
It is likely that the jury of the trial
will be drawn about the middle of Oc-
tober.
After the decision had been given the
defending attorneys tried to amend the
fourth plea by the insertion of the word
For" This met with resistance from
the district attorney but the court
promised that if the law was clear on
the point he would allow it. The gov
eminent is said to fear a trick in the
insertion of one word. The district at
torney moved that the defendants plead
to the indictment. 1t was announced
that a demurrer is to be filed by the
packers, alta cking the face of the en-
tire indictment as far as defects and
insufficient allegations are concerned.
The defendants were ordered by the
the pleadings to be taken UP on argu-
ment before Judge Humphrey by the
following Monday. In the meantime a
bill of exceptions is to be prepared by
the defendants to the ruling made by
Judge Humphrey today. Exceptions
were taken by all of the defendants
to the courts ruling on every count in
the plea. This was for the purpose
appeal of the trial.
One of the points in the pleading
which attracted considera bic attention
and which the court declared had given
him some difficulty was in regard to
the rights of Judge S. H. Betheu to re-
ceive the return of the Indictment. 1t
was argued by the defense that he was
sitting in the eastern division of the
northern district of Illinois and received
an indictment voted in the northern
division of the northern district of Illi
nois. The district attorney declared
if the law of March 8, 1905, which Gre
ated the position now held by the judge
and also rearranged the district was
construed against his contentious there
was no court and there was no judge
and there was no return of the indict-
ment. The court surprised almost ev-
ery one in court when he read from
President Roosevelt's message in the
congressional record Of last November
in which it is declared that Judge
Betheu was appointed as successor to
Judge c. C. Kohlsaat, promoted from
the district court to the circuit court.
This promotion gave Judge Betheu a
right to accept the return of an indict-
r1ent voted in the old district.
