JEWISH NEW YEAR TODAY
Beginning of Year 5,673 Celebrated
BY Those Of Jewish Faith.

Yesterday at shutdown began the
Jewish New Year, Rosh Hoshena,
ending at shutdown this afternoon.
The new year is 5,673. In all the
larger cities of the country, and
many of the smaller ones, the day is
solemnly celebrated in the Jewish
houses of worship. Where there are
no synagogues or temples, the day is
spent by the faithful in prayer at
their homes. Sometimes a number
will gather at one place for the pur-
pose.
The day according to the Jewish,
or, rather Hebraic custom, is reckon
ed from shutdown to shutdown, which
accounts for the fact that all their
holidays begin and end at the close
of day.
Today many of the business
houses conducted by Jews will be
closed. Some of the more religious
will spend the day in prayer. others
spending it in whatever name they
please. However, the day is one of
seriousness and solemnity, as are
most Jewish holidays, and things of
a humorous nature on this day are
disapproved of. W
The day is celebrated in accord
ance with a passage in the Bible,
which says: ION the seventh month
(called Tishri in u calendar) the
first day Of the month shall you keep
an hoy convocation; no servile work
shall you do, but this shall be unto
you a day of sounding trumpets."
The trumpet, it may be explained,
is a rams horn, and is blown at var
ious times during the days prayer.
1t serves always to awaken the con-
science of the real Jew, and brings
to him higher and nobler thoughts.

dred feet is not unusual nor excessive
length of line for this fishing. Owing to
the fact that 1t will frequently be drawn
through conflicting currents, the smaller
calibres will be found best, since they
catch less water.
Fly fishing is the chosen sport here in
midsummer, or after June 10, and the
flies used are in general similar to the
best known salmon patterns, although tied
in smaller sizes. The Scotch fly, Black
Dose, is the best early lure, and later the

flies the tiny gold or blue Devon is very
successful, and the small yellow bellied,

with single hooks, took many Of our best

which is sort of cross between a polly
wog, a newt and a hellgrammite, and is
found under rocks in shallow places of the
river. It certainly takes fish and can be
strongly recommended if the camp needs
food rather than sport. In any case, meet
these water aristocrats in the spirit Of
true craftsmanship, with light, beautiful
tackle, single hooks, ample landing nets
and the admiration and respect Cue their
plucky fight and their iridescent beauty.

The Giant Fish of Nipigon.
To speak truth of the NipigOn brook
trout is simply to invite discussion and
test ones place among men. The writer
showed some of the photographs of his
catch to q Broadway dealer in fishing
tackle and met with the interesting re-
mark Yes, hne lake trout; Of course
the brook trout does not grow as large as
those fish were" Oh! He does not, eh?
Well, Mr.. Dealer, you are in the same
class with Professor Agassiz, who told
Senator Frye, of Maine, that the true
brook trout, red spotted, square tailed and
Latin named ad libitum, never grew as
large as the brook trout Senator Frye

Lake Nipigon, forty miles 10 the north,
is nine hundred feet above the level of
the ocean and is true inland sea, ninety
miles in length, fifty in width, draining
millions of acres of primeval wilderness
and furnishing such reservoir and breed

take generations of careless prodigality

Vulnerable small rivers and streams and is
said to be seven hundred feet deep.
Forty Miles of River Beauty.
There is almost every phase Of natural
beauty n the forty miles of the Nipigon
River. No trout territory with which the
writer is familiar compares with 1t in
boldness and scenic charm. The Range
leys Of Maine are pastoral, the upper
reaches of the Restigouche, in New
Brunswick, are in hilly and rolling coun-
try, the Sacramento, of California, is
rugged and wild. but the Nipigon COM
bines all these attractions.
At places the river widens out to great
lakes, twenty miles long by ten wide, with
sloping, cultivated shores and thrifty
homes of Indians; again the canoe is

A DUEL IN BALLOONS.

n this day Of the development in aero
nautics and speculation as to their use
in time Of war, it may be interesting
to recall the first duel that was ever
fought in the air. 1t took place in 1908,
and, as might have been expected, oc-
CURED in France. N. de Grandpre and
VI. lie Pique had a quarrel arising out of
Jealousy concerning a lady engaged in the
Imperial Opera.
They agreed to fight a duel to settle theEa
respective claims, and in order that the
heat Of angry passion should not inter
fere with the polished elegance of the
proceeding, they postponed the duel for
month-the lady agreeing 10 best0w her
smiles on the survivor. The dueHists
were to fight in the air.
Two balloons were constructed exactly
alike. On the day of the duel De Grand
pre- and his second entered the car Of one
balloon; lie Pique and his second the
other. This was in the Garden OF the
Tuileries, amid a big crowd OF Spectators
The men were to fire, not at each other.
but at each others balloons, in order to
Orlng them Gown Oy tue escape VI BasH
As pistols would hardly have served for
this purpose, each aeronaut took blunder-
buss in his car.
At given signal the ropes holding the
balloons were cut, and up they went into
the air. The wind was moderate and
kept the balloons about in their respec-
tive positions, about eighty yards apart
When about half a mile up in the air
the preconcerted signal for firing was
given. NJ. lie Pique fred, but missed
NJ. De Grandpre fred and sent a ball
through lie Pique's balloon The bal
loon collapsed, the car descended with
frightful rapidity, and Le Pique and his
second were dashed to pieces. De Grand
pre- continued his ascent and terminated
his aerial voyage at a distance Of seven
leagues from Paris. History does not
state whether he was rewarded BY the
hand of the lady for whose sake tha
duel had been fought
