IS PARDONED

Speaking of work on the county
farm, Mr. Horace Culpepper, the sup
erintendent, remarked yesterday that
it was a mistaken idea that it was
useless to send women convicted of
crime to the county farm. He has a
number of negro women out there and
he states that he makes them work
right along.
Mr.. Culpepper says that he has gath
cred fifteen bales of cotton and that
the women have picked at least thir-
teen of them, while the male convicts
were being worked on the roads
AS to the county farm Mr.. Culpep-
per is more than pleased with the
crop he has grown. He thinks he will
get 20 bales of cotton off of 80 acres
of land which is about as good cotton
production as is made in the state
Besides this, the food crop is good
The county farm has been a great
success this year.

ToGENARIAN, BELIEVING HIM
TO HAVE MONEY.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Sept. 23.-F
B. Butcher, aged 81 years, was
brought to Knoxville tonight in Sc.
rious condition; some fifty pellets OF
shot having entered one side of his
face, destroying the sight Of one eye.
According to his story, he spends
the summers In cultivating an island
located nine miles from Kingston.
Some few days ago he had FIVE or six
hundred dollars in his possession
which he deposited in a Kingston
bank, and he believes that the sup
position that the money was still in
his possession was responsible for the
assault made upon him.
Two boys, aged II and 10, Ballew
and Griggs by name accompanied
him to the island and when he was
not looking, fired at him. He states
that he turned in time to see the gun
in Griggs' hand before he fell uncon.
scious.
Some two or three dollars in change,
which he had in his pockets, was Ia
ken. Ballew was arrested and Jailed
at Kingston, but Griggs has not yet
been captured.

JEWISH new YEAR
BEGINS FRIDAY
ANNUAL HOLIDAY WILL BE o.
SERVED BY THE RACE m
THIS CITY.
GOING TO NASHVILLE SYNAGOGUE
Several FROM Columbia Will Observe
the Occasion in the Capital
City.


Commencing Friday afternoon at
$3.50 o'clock "Roshasshoni' sets in
and lasts till Sunday afternoon at
$3.50 o'clock. This is the JEWS New
Year, and is observed all over the
world by all orthodox and reform
Jews. If a Jew ever expects to be
religious or is inclined to be penitent
for his sins it is during this time.
The real meaning of the holidays to
the orthodox Jews is of a very pc
culiar nature to the Gentle. Every
Jew in the world is supposed to be
tried, according to old Jewish ledgens,
before a high tribunal in heaven, with
God as the high judge, with his hosts
of angels as the jury. The verdict of.
this trial is supposed to be rendered
ten days later, which is the day of
Atonement. 1t is believed by all |
orthodox Jew that his doom for the
coming year is cast during the time
of "Roshasshoni" If he is to sue
coed in business during the year, it is
decided then. His die is cast then
for the entire year. And thus 1t is
why the Jews are want to be penitent,
so as to seek favor with their lord
and creator, in order that they may
live another year and be prosperous.
This theory OF the Jewish religion
has been handed down for 566S years
and is believed today by more than
sixty per cent of the Jews.
This year is the beginning of the
5669th year of the creation OF the
world according to the old Jewish
and the mode of wor- !
ship is practically the same now as it
vas in ancient Jerusalem so many
-ears back. Thus it will be seen that
he Jews have been more constant in
heir mode of religious worship than 2

lobe &
The holidays begin with a service
v the Rabbi on Friday evening, but &
he real religious services do not be- g
in until Saturday morning at six 3
clock, which is the Jewish Sabbath. y

:. This applies to the children as
ii as the grown people. -
In Europe this mode of worship is
served more universally than IN
