Thanksgiving in Moses Time.

In some respects our Thanksgiving
resembles the Jewish feast of taber-
nacles. That was a national institu-
tion appointed by the great Jewish
lawgiver, Moses. 1t was also called
1.-The feast of ingathering," held an
nually at the end of the harvest sea-
son. BY dwelling during the feast in
crude booths, or tabernacles, built of
the branches of olive, palm or pine
trees outside the walls of Jerusalem
and within the streets, the Israelites
were reminded of the struggles of
their forefathers in the wilderness,
unhoused, sometimes in despair, then
filled with hope, ever pushing on in
search of 1.-The better country"
where they might develop their ma
tional life. This feast recalled Gods
gracious guidance in past history
and acknowledged present blessings
in an abundant harvest. Its pecu'
liar characteristic was the spirit OF
rejoicing, praise and Thanksgiving.

"EIGHT BELLS"
A well-Known Play Coming to the
Lyric.

AyhHSs -
The famous Brothers Byrne, the
recognized leaders of pantomimic
comedy In this country, will give
their successful play, the new
Eight Bells at the Lyric on Fri
day, Nov. 26. The production is
entirely original and in a class that
stands alone. There are no SINH
lar performances in this country.
The piece throughout savors with
new things that have never before
been presented to the public. The
Byrnes Brothers are artists of a
high standard, excelling as pantomi-
mists and as acrobats are unexcell-
ed. Nothing in the acrobatic line
is too difficult for them, and the
ease with which they accomplish
the most difficult feats is marvellous
to behold. The Brothers are suffi-
cient in themselves for a show, but
wisely allow others who have claims
to recognition to help in the merry
making. They have an inexhausti-
BILE fund of novelties in the way OF
stage paraphernalia in the new
Eight Bells" and there is no limit
to trick scenery, marvellous me-
chanical effects and new pantomimic
! tricks, which keep the audiences
attention riveted to the stage at all
times. The carriage ride and its
mishaps, the funny revolving ship,
the animated statues, and the John
Byrne troupe of acrobats in new
and novel feats are all great laugh
producers and ideas that originated
| from the brain of this clever
quartette of pantomimists.

Invited to Witness PremOnished
Death.

Friends of John G. Hoffman, a re-
tired manufacturer, who lived alone
in a snug little home on Walton
avenue, received a summons from
him recently that he would like to
see them.
He told them he had a Fremont
ton he was going to die. He said
he was not ill, never had been seri-
ously ill in his life, but that he sud-
denly had become cognizant of the
fact that his end was approaching
swiftly.
His friends became much impress
ed as he took chair and settled
himself in comfortable position,
meantime bidding each of those
present farewell. They observed
that he closed his eyes, and took il
for granted he was wearied by the
exertions of preparing the house for
their reception.
After ten minutes a lifelong
friend stepped forward and laid his
hand on the old mans shoulder
There was no response. The OLD
man was dead. Physicians who
were summoned said apoplexy was
the cause of death. Hoffman was
68 years of age.

SHAMOKIN, Pa, Nov. 2O.-Mrs.
Samuel Greenwalt, of Milton, was

trict Attorney A. X. Deibler, OF

the mysterious death of her son,

Attorney with evidence she thinks
should cause him to serve warrant
on a suspect in Milton charging
murder.
Greenwalt was found dying near a
railroad station one night with a
bullet in his skull. He breathed his
last in the home of a young woman,
who was his sweetheart. A Coro-

1t Was Celebrated Under Many Per-
picking Difficulties. "a
When in the autumn of 1921
Massachusetts accepted Governor
Bradford's invitation to Join the
colonists in a harvest festival the
Thanksgiving day troubles of women
began. Mistress Brewster and Pris-
ella Mullins and Constanta Hopkins
and little Remember Allerton and
the rest of the dozen women who had
survived the first terrible Plymouth
winter set to work to make ready
for the celebration. Their cup
boards were not much like the gen
erous larders of merry England, but
what they were to eat at this. feast
should be of their best.
There was the standby" of hasty
pudding and molasses. There were
clam chowder and oysters roasted
in big clam shells. Wild turkeys
were abundant, and one days shoot
ing determined the characteristic
dish of the feast for all the year to
come. Plum porridge delighted the
few children, and the guests were
to introduce childhood to the festive
popcorn.
But when Massasoit came he
brought with him ninety of his peo-
pie. The first Thanksgiving dinner.
instead of being served to fifty, was
served to nearly three times that
number. Moreover, the guests stay
ed three days, and In spite of their
present of five fine deer one does
not doubt that they left empty pan
tries and weary hostesses behind
them and that for a week thereafter
the colonists lived on "picked VI
dinners"
History repeats itself. The noble
autumn festival too often means fol

day and little time or strength fol
the giving of thanks. But we need
not reproduce the Plymouth situa
tion. Priscilla could not set hel
wild Indians to serve her, but to-day
the preparations for the dinner may
be divided among the many hands
which make light work. Stoninl
the raisins, picking the turkey

Mrs. Cannon, mother of the young

Then he is really dead? This Is
the first news of an official character

was merely rumor, but IL they

must believe It. We will ask the
Government to help us. We want
to get the boys body home. Mr..
Cannon will see Congressman NJ. E.
Olmsted, of this city, to-day and ask
him to see MIR. Knox and have the
body brought here.
1--WE intend to ask for hnancial
indemnity. Roy had made money
in Nicaragua and his property was
taken from him. Now because ne
was hated by the President of Nicar-

certainly ask the Government to get
satisfaction.

PRESIDENT BUCHANAN'S DAY
OF FASTING.

The first general proclamation ap-
pointing a fast day was issued by
President James Buchanan Dec. IA,
1860, and reads as follows:
Numerous appeals have been made
to me by pious and patriotic associa-
tions and citizens, in view OF the
present distracted and dangerous
condition of our country, to recon-
mend that a day be set apart for hu-
initiation, fasting and prayer through
out the Union. In compliance with
their request and my own sense OF
duty l designate Friday, the 4th day
of January, 1861, for this purpose
and recommend that the people as
semble on that day, according to
their general forms of worship, to
keep it as a solemn fast.
"The union of the states is at the
present moment threatened with
alarming and immediate danger.
Panic and distress of fearful char
acter prevail throughout the land.
Our laboring population are without
employment and consequently de-
prived of the means of earning their
bread. Indeed, hope seems to have
deserted the minds of men. All
classes are in state of confusion
and dismay, and the wisest counsels
of our best and purest men are wholly
disregarded.
"In this the hour of our calamity
and peril to whom shall be resort for
relief but to the God of our fathers?
His omnipotent arm only can save us
from the awful effects of our own
crimes and follies, our own ingrati-
tude and guilt toward our Heavenly
Father.
| "Let us, then, with deep contrition
and penitent sorrow unite in humb-
ling ourselves before the Most High
in confessing our individual and ma
tional sins and in acknowledging the
Justice of our punishment. Let us
implore him to remove from ouI
hearts that false pride of opinion
which would impel us to persevert
in wrong for the sake of consistency
rather than yield a just submission
to the unforeseen exigencies by which
we are now surrounded. Let III

restore the frindship and good will
which prevailed in former day
among the people of the severa
states and, above all, to save us from
the horrors of civil war and bloo'
outlines. Let our fervent prayer
ascend to his throne that he will
not desert us in this hour of extrem'
peril, but remember us as he di'
our fathers in the darkest days o
the Revolution and preserve our con
stitution and our Union, the worl
of their hands, for ages yet to come

With eyes of tender gray.
