McCarthy's Experience in
Hospital Not Enough to

Although but recently discharged
from the hospital. where he occupied a
cot for several months as a result of
having been stabbed twice in the back.
7. O. Mccarthy of Pittsburg, Pa, more
recently of the Standard Steel Car
settlement, showed that it is hard to
keep a good man down, and also that
he is the bully boy of the neighborhood.
McCarthy's love for a fracas and for
booze has been his downfall heretofore
and it was his downfall yesterday
Considered a good fellow when sober,
his best friends avoid him when drink

long time as result of recent argu-
ment with a fellow workman.
Yesterday he went on another ram
page and in a saloon on Calumet ave-
nue., came near wiping out several men.
He had a long lead pipe which he used
with telling force on the woodwork at
the place. but all the human targets
succeeded in getting out of his way He
was arrested, charged with drunken
ness and gave the police a hard fight
He was fined S. and costs by Judge

Walter Sohl is Picked by
Indianapolis News
For Honor.

Walter Sohl of Hammond and for
merly a member of the local high
school football team, made the all-In-
diana evelen as picked by the Indian
apolis News. He is given the position
of left half back on the team together
with three other Wabash players who
have been given the honor. The Little
Giants as a result have twice as many
men on the team as any other school
in the state. In Hammond, Sohl was
always considered a star player and
he has made good among the best play
ers in the state. AS half back he is
fast and nervy, and is considered to be
one of the best punters in the west.
The followers of the game in this city
viii be glad to know of SOhTs sue
cess. The Indianapolis News has the
following TO say in regard to the Ham
mond star:
For left half back position, Sohl of
Wabash is picked This mans speed
on end runs and ability to find the holes
in the opposing line on straight and
cross bucks would recommend him ia
vCrably in themselves. But strong
est point is his punting. Sohl is un-
dcubtedly the best punter in the state.
Besides getting distance and accuracy
il his kicks, he gets them off from po-
sition. This play on first or second
down, when the opposing team is not
expecting it. gains more grounds than
any pair Of half backs could gain con-
sistently carrying the ball. In the
Michigan game he fooled Wasmund and
Magoffn time after time, and did not
once have a kick blocked"

JEWISH PEOPLE WILL
OBSERVE NEW YEAR
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
New York, Sept. AT sunset to.
morrow evening the Jewish people
throughout the world will begin the
celebration of Rosh Hashanah, or the
festival of the New Year. 1t will be
the beginning of the year 56GS of the
Jewish calendar, which is traditional
ly supposed to count from the crea-
ton of the world. The celebration of
the New Years festival is more gen
orally observed by the Jews than any
other of the numerous feasts and
fasts in their calendar, with the sin
gle exception of Yom Kippur or the
Feast of the Day of Atonement, which
follows close upon it.
Among orthodox Jews, whose num-
bers in this city have been greatly in
creased in recent years by immi-
grants from Russia and Poland, the
ceremonies in connection with Rosh
Hashanah extend over two days.
With what is termed the reformed ele-
ment, those who have accepted the
modern Interpretation of the scrip
lures, while the celebration of the
festival is as strictly observed as
among orthodox, it is confined to one
festival enjoins entire abstention from
Esiness and all labor, and- the at
tendance upon the religious services
at the synagogues.
A prominent feature of the services
in the synagogues is the blowing of
the rams horn or shofar. The. reason
for blowing the horn can be traced
back to the beginning of the Jewish
&c 30
children of Israel that the time for re-
pentance is at hand and they should
relaize that they have committed sins
which should be atoned for. After the
blowing of the horn special services
and prayers are held to commemorate
the occasion.
In addition to the regularly estab-
lished congregations worshipping all
the year round in places of worship
owned and rented by them, the need
of many improvised synagogues is
imperative owing TO the great number
of Jews, on the East Side especially. 1
who do not belong to any established
congregation, but who desire to take /
part in the celebration of the festival. /
To fulfill this need every available |
hall and place of public meeting on .
the East Side, many in Harlem and a .
number in the Bronx, have been fit .
ted up as temporary places of wor-
ship. The seats in these improvised |
synagogues are bought by those who /
desire TO worship at these places, but
there is always a provision made for
those who cannot afford the expendi-
ture, so that no one DESTROYS of taking
part in the service is turned away.
