The poor who cannot afford such tab ernaules, dwelling as so many do in congested tenement districts in our metropolitan cities, still make brave efforts to have tabernaces of their own There are those living on the top floors of huge buildings, in attic rooms next to the roof who throw open the trap doors admitting to che roof, and across these lay the twigs and branches bearing what little fruit and flowers their limited means may allow, so that their homes, too, may not be without the traditional re- hinder of the festival season. The Reformed Jews have, to large eX- tent, abandoned the custom of dwell ing tabernacles in or adjacent to their homes but adorn the altars of their places of worship with the symbols aof',the festival. ss- .sssf
 X further symbol of the festival is tlfe cluster of four different $plants, indigenous to Palestine-thes4 palm branch, the myrtle, the willow of the brook, and the fruit of the splen- did tree,' with which, so Israel was ordered by the Levitical law (NXlll, 4O) to rejoice before the Lord sev- en days" In keeping with this law,
 in Orthodox Synagogues, when the rit- ual the 11Sth psalm is recited and the Lord, for He is good, for His mercy endureth forever the Reader takes the cluster and waves it success sively to each of the four points of the compass and then heavenward and eastward as an expression of the omnipresence of divine beneficence.
 The festival was one of the three ancient yearly pilgrimage festivals when every adult male member of the faith was bidden to journey to the central shrine. with the further
 charge that he should not appear there empty-handed and should espe-
 cially remind himself that his man. servant and his maid servant, the stranger, and the fatherless and the
 widow should have the opportunity
 and the means to rejoice with him ill his feast. tDieut. 16. 14) On this festival, as on all Jewish holy days the unfortunate and dependent arc
 especially held in mind and particuar ! provision made is that they might
 welcome the occasion in comfort and gladness of spirit.

MULLIKIN RESIDENCE
 BURNED YESTERDAY
Loss About $5,0OO, Partially Insured
 Mrs Mullikin Slightly Burned.

Fire, thought to have originated from defective wirning, practically destroyed the residence of J. w. Null likin, Martin avenue and Main street, yesterday morning at 10:30 o'clock. Some household effects were removed but the damage to the residence and effects amounted to about $5,000 par tially covered by insurance. Mrs. Mullikin, who was next door, when the blaze was discovered, sustained slight burns about the shoulders while endeavoring to remove valu- atles from the burning house.
 The flames were first discovered by a negro man. He shouted to the cook in the Mullkin home and she tried to e,xtinguish the b5laiz1e with buckets of water, but Without avail She immediately called to Mrs. Null likin who rushed to her home 10 find the roof in blaze. The fire alarm was turned in and within a very few minutes apparatus from stations NO. and were on the scene and soon had the fire under control. No neigh boring property was endangered by the flames as the strong wind, which was blowing drove the flying emhers to the north over a large field.
 Mr Mullikin said yesterday after noon that he had trouble recently with the light wires and it is his opin- ion that worn insulation on wire permitted it to come in contact with the woodwork Mir. Mullikin did not say as to whether he would rebuild, at least not until the fire loss has been adjusted.

V .Gommencing. next Thursday sthe s26th of September, and continuing throughout seven days, with an eighth additional day known as the Eighth Day of Conclusion, "Succoth, the Jewish Festival of Tahernacles,' de- scribed in the Bible also as the Flag Haasiph,' Festival of lngathering,' y will be observed. Both these names are significant as suggestive of the Festival,-the one as historic. recall ing the type of structure, the portable booth or tabernacle hastily con- structed of the twiegs and branches of trees, in which the ancient Israel ties dWelt in their wanderings through the wilderness after the ex- odus from Egypt, and the other, plain ly agricultural, carrying with it the thought of the harvest and all the sentiment of joy and thankfulness as- sociated herewith. In either name or meaning, however, the idea re mains prominent to the Jewish mind of the providence and protection of God. The tabernacle is the symbol of protection Sheltered in tabeH- nacles ill those early days as Israel was, so the members of the faith are today reminded of the watchful care of God through all trying and diffi- cult experiences As for the harvest ingathering, that, of itself, even more immediately, invites recognition of Divine bounty and goodness. In this connection, it is to be noted that the Festival of Ingathering is doubtlessly the original of our American national Thanksgiving Day. Men, of the Old Testament type as the Pilgrim fath- CTS were, with the old Hebrew Scrip tures as their favorte book of study and guidance, there is very little question that when in the Plymouth colony they instituted the first Thanksgiving celebration, they took the suggestion from this ancient lsraelitish festival.
 The festival is marked Ey the ortho- dox Jews, by the erection on tnelr premises-usually in their yards-of tabernacles, in which they take thelr meals and recite the prayers of do- mestic devotion appropriate to the occasion, The first stake for the tab csnacle is driven by the head of the family upon homecoming from the Synagogue five days previously, at the close of the solemn fast day-the Day of Atonement-and that too before .partaking of any food-thus indlcat- ing the joy experienced in antieipat- ing and preparing for the festival Some of these tabernacles are real works of at, beautifully constructed bowers of branches and bthickly eii- twined foliage, adorned with frults. aud flowers hung pendant from the

IS TT HIGHWAY ROBBERY

Readers Of The Seattle Republican will re-
member an article appearing herein some
months ago about the farmer and the city
markets and how the farmers preferred to
sell what they raised in the local markets for
ANYTHING that was offered them rather than
to ship the same to Seattle, where they would
be robbed by +he commission men. All said
in that article and in a subsequent one writ
ten by Allen Weir of Olympia has been sub
stantiated by series Of articles appearing
in the daily papers, telling how the farmers
were being robbed by he Seattle commission
merchants These men have grown rich, so
it is said, by only getting ten per cent COM
mission on the produce they handle, which
is absolutely preposterous AS we said last
week, we might be toying with our liberty
to pronounce those commission merchants
common thieves but we do know the farm
ers have been robbed by some one, and it Is
perfectly natural to suspect the one who
seems to have profted the most by handling
his produce. The farmers must sell to the
consumers if they hope to earn living out
of the lands they cultivate, and the sooner
the farmer and the consumer arrive at
business arrangement the sooner will both
of them get their just desserts. A fruit
grower sent quite consignment of apples
to Seattle and the commission merchant
wrote back the market was fiat and the ap-
pies would not more than pay the expenses
Of shipping them The farmer was not sat
isfed and so he took train for Seattle and
called at the store Of the commission mer-
chant and inquired into the price of apples
He was finally shown his own fruit and
price demanded that simply astounded him.
Without further secrecy he disclosed his
identity and told the commission merchant
if he did not pungle up in holy minute he
would make it interesting for him, and ne
did it. Is not that highway robbery?
