beautiful plumes brought out this
year by Fountains milIiners. They
were as branches of the weeping

nosing are they. Blacks, whites,

the Chandelier hues, and with the

at their base, these wonderful crea-

FOUNTAINS FALL

With Admirers.

Had the thoroughly "a la mode"
ladies of Greenwood been told q

themselves in sack CLOTH" which,
in Scriptural days, was the garment
denoting grief or a penitential

But such is the state of things in
the upper world of fashion today,
Is is indicated in the Ready-to-
Wear Department of Fountains Big
Busy Store, which held its opening
yesterday and today, welcoming
during these two days hundreds of
tho loyal patrons of this popular
house.
The two most interesting features
Of the Opening was the brilliant
display of Millinery and Ready-to-
Wear Dress Goods.
In the Millinery Department Miss
Marie Eulilia Chance and her thor
oughly trained trimmers had every
thing in the pink of perfection.
Quite the most lovely of all
the lovely hats displayed in this
Opening were those models of the
finest quality OF black silk velvet,
trimmed in the most artistic manner
all with various sized scarfs of
the finest velvet, lined with snappy
white and tipped with tassels.
For be it known, ladies, that no
woman of fashion may consider
herself well-dressed this winter
without handsome scarf for each
of her toilets.
OF the very large hats there is
still an abundance, as is true Of the

HEBREWS OBSERVE
THEIR NEW YEAR.
Their Pisces Of Business Closed Fos
the OccaSlon.

Rosh Hashonah, the Hebrew
New Year, which began at sun
down last Monday, was, as usual,
generally observed in Greenwood
Tuesday. All Hebrew places OF
business were closed, and appro-
pirate services were conducted at
the synagogues in the city.
The meaning and purpose of
this festival is not set forth ex-
plicitly in the Bible; we are left
to infer them from the Scriptural
titles of the day, "The Memorial
of Blowing of Trumpets," (Lev.
x1iii:24, and Numbers xx1:x1, as
well as from the fact that the He
brew New Year is the seventh
new moon of the Hebrew calen-
dar. In the Biblical age every
new moon was regarded as a SOL
emn occasion, and the seventh, the
sacred number, was especially 50.
It became the day of the blow
ing of the trumpet-par excel
lence- reminding the Israelite
that new period of time begins
and that no occasion could be
more appropriate for the endeay-
or after new life for amendment
and reconciliation with God. Il
was the day of memorial, when
Israel felt himself held by God in
merciful remembrance. But il
Israel would have God mindful o!
him, he must be mindful of his re.
sponsibilities, to Him and to mans
higher nature. The symbolic ac1
of sounding the Sophar, the rams
horn, which is performed in the
Synagogue in obedience to the
scriptural precept, is intended t.
bring home to the Israelite thi.
aspect of the days meaning. =

q 6ltterise Success.

Conspicuous among the events
of the past two weeks was the
Fall Millinery and Dress Wear
Opening at F. Goodman's Dry
Goods, on Howard street. Here
there was rich abundance of all
the newest things in woolens,
silks and other dress goods, with
the accessories which go so
far toward achieving sartorial
success, and these were displayed
in the latest creations, weaves and
patterns, to the greatest possible
advantage for The customers

It would have been 4 man of
hard heart, indeed, who could
have refused to yield admiration
in abundant measure to the mil
linery display, while the ladies
we're simply transported with de-
light the moment the fine assort-
ment burst upon their eager view.
And indeed it was a rich dis
play. With millineFs such as Miss
Adams and Miss Peebles,' our
people may be assured of the
continuance Of the openings
splendid display and willing SER
vice. There, on pretty forms and
frames, were shown tho latest
confections in the millinery line,
with trimmings of distinguished
beauty and richness. Many of the
very new hats were displayed. and
many were sold, not only because
of their manifest style and beauty
but because they came within the
reach Of ones purse-a very
potent reason.
In addition to the extensive line
of ladies' hats, this millinery de-
partment will also have q we'll
stocked line of children's hats
and of infants wear in caps and

CONFEDERATE
REUNION, OCT l2.l3


The next reunion of the Missis-
slppi Division of Confederate Vet
Grams will be held at Hattiesburg on
October 18th and 18th, and will
probably run over into the l4th.
Hattiesburg is making big prep
arations for this event, and pro-
poses to give the "vets" a recep-
ton worthy of such men. 1t was
tho intention at first to mix a little
politics with this event, and invite
tho Senatorial candidates to bs
present on one of the days and
deliver addresses. but the old SOL
dlsrs intimated to the people of
lHattiesburg that they were gather
ing there to renew old comrsde-
Nships and fight over again among
themselves tho battles of the Coz,
and didn't care to bs "pestered"
with politicians, and their wishes
were accsded to, so that there will
be no speech-making of the polit-
cal variety.
On one of the days there will be
an unveiling of a monument by tho
! aides of Hattiesburg, erected to
,he memory of the Confederate SOL
1ier, and the Hon. John Sharp
Williams has been invited to deliver
he address. It was first contem-
plated to have Hon. H. D. Money
deliver the dedicatory address, he
being a Confederate soldier, but
when it was found that it would be
impossible for him to do so, Senator
s'lect Williams was selected.
The Jackson camp has selected
delegates to attend the meeting, but
hey will not be tho only "vets'
rom the State capital who will be
on hand, by any means. They will
'ttend to the Official part of the
proceedings, but many another old
