JEWISH NEW YEAR.
Origin and Meaning of the Festival
Among Jews.

Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New
Year, will fall on September 90, this
year, and with its observance passes
the 5,672d year of the Hebrews. The
celebration begins on Friday evening
and lasts through Saturday for the
reformed Jews; through Sunday for
the orthodox Jews.
Rosh Hashana touches the hearts
OF the children of Israel as does no
other of the festivals and holidays.
1t is known as the day of the blow
ing of the trumpets, which is also the
seventh new moon Of the Hebrew cal
endar. The blowing of the trumpet
is a reminder to the Israelite that a
new period Of time Is begun. 1t is
a day of memorial, when Israel feels
himself held by God in remembrance.
The Biblical basis for the observ-
ance of the first day of Tishri as a
New Years day and the most solemn
day of the Jewish calendar next to
Yom Kippur, or the Day of Atone
ment, is found in the reference to
Kikkaron ("memorial day") in Levi
ticus xiii, "a, which reads:
"In the seventh month, in the first
day of the month, shall ye have a
Babbath, a memorial Of blowing of
trumpets, a holy convocation." Ezra
also refers to the day as one "holy
to the Lord" Ten days from the
New Year the Day of Atonement is
observed.

STATE COLORED COLLEGE.
Sixteenth Annual Session Begins O

Sixteenth Annual Session Begins on
October Fourth.
The State Colored College will be-
gin it's sixteenth annual session on
Wednesday, October 4. Everything
is in readiness for the opening and 1t
is expected that this will mark the
most prosperous year in it's history.
President R. S. Wilkinson has trav-
eled over 5000 miles through the
State this summer in the interest of
the college. AS a result of this &C
tivity applications are being received
daily by the score, and doubtless the
enrolment will approach one thous-
and. The alumni of the college have
taken part in this work and are send
ing students from every point in the
State.
Among those applying for admis-
sion are many asking for assistance
in their education. In order to pro-
vide for these the president would
gladly receive the names and ad-
dresses of persons in the city who
would like to have students work for
them during the year. To these will
be sent reliable students who will
faithfully perform their duties. By
this means families will be accommo-
dated and self-supporting students
be enabled to secure the employment
needed to assist them through school.
Send a postal or phone your address
to the college and it will receive due
attention.

The Farmers Bank and Trust Com
pany, st. Matthews new bank, COM
menced business on Friday. This
makes the third bank for st. Mat
thews. Tne sisterhood Of financial
institutions, according to seniority,
is: the st. Matthews Savings Bank,
capital $4,000: the Home bank, cap
ital S25, 900; Farmers Bank and
Trust company, capital 5000. The
selling price of the stock in the two
first named banks being at high pre-
MUM and the heavy deposits that
they carry would indicate that the

KICKING AT ST. MATTHEWS.
Much Dissatisfaction With the Cot
ton Market.

The correspondent of The News
and Courier at st. Matthews, who
on all occasions has the courage Of
his convictions, takes up the cudgels
and goes for the cotton market OF
his town in the following fashion.
He says:
There has been much kicking and
complaint about the cotton market
here this season so far and common
talk about combinations" under
standings" etc, but nothing definite
happened until Friday morning. It
appears that w. w. Mcmillan, who
bought cotton heavily last fall, was
left in the cold this fall by manipu-
lations, somewhat mysterious as yet.
At any rate, heavily signed petition
will go to Alexander Sprunt & Sons,
Wilmington, and Ridgers, McCabe &
Co., Charleston, both large cotton ex-
porters, implering them to deal di-
rectly with this market and not
through district agents.
"The petition also condemns the
manner of McMillan's taking off in
stroig but polite terms. The petit
ton also contends that this town is
of such Importance to be placed on
an Independent basis. Over $4,000
bales were marketed here last season
and that limit promises to be excell-
ed this season unless the cotton is
driven away from this place as It's
normal market. There are all sorts
of rumors in the air, but The News
and Courier correspondent has relat-
ed cnly the tangible facts"

Hanging Badly Needed.

No less than five murders have
been committed in this county in
the last month. This is an awful
record and calls for a hanging or sew

committed these killings are in jail,

WHY CONSUMPTION GAINS.
Because People Live In Germ-Laden
Houses.

Brown had moved in the month Of
May. into a house in another part OF
the town where he had always lived.
BY fall, he had contracted tubereu-
lesis. 1t was discovered later, that
several different families, who had oc-
eupied this house in succession, had
lost in turn several members from
tuberculosis. No attempt had ever been
made to disinfeet the house. Brown
went to Arizona, pitched his tent on
certain spot, and never made any
change from that one spot until his
death Note that fact. As result,
the soil over which he slept, night after

cumulated germs which he expelled in

THIN BLOOD AND
I RHEUMATISM
Whatever Builds up the
Blood During an Attack
VIII Cure the Disease.
This Ohio Woman Tried the
Tonic Treatment After Being
Crippled by Rheumatism
and Was Cured.

There is a great deal still to be learned
about the cause of rheumatism but one
fact now stands out prominently-the
rapid thinning OF the blood from the
beginning OF the attack. This may be
one al the causes of the disease or one
of its effects but it is known that any
thing which will build up the blood
during an attack of rheumatism Will
cure the trouble. Such remedy either
attacks the cause OF the rheumatism or
counteracts its harmful effects and en-
ables the system to throw 1t OIL. Or.
Williams Pink Pills owe their curative
effect to this action. :,
Thistr treatment for rheumatism is well
illustrated in the case OF Mrs. b. Y.
Alspach, whose address is r. +. u. NO.

AZ suffered for nine months from
rheumatism in my right hand and arm
and think il was partly caused by an
injury. Ny hand was so crippled that

heavy pain in my right arm all the
time and was in great misery. When |
got M in the morning my arm would
he numb and the pain would be SO
great that would have to cry. There
were sharp, shooting pains through my
arm. / became very nervous and could
scarcely dress myself.
