Mystery Of DIR. DieseIs
Disappearance Deepens

Antwerp, Belgium, Oct. 2-The my
stery of the disappearance of DR..
Rudolph Diesel, the German inventor,
while ON his way from England, was
still further deepened, today, by the
assertion of a member of the crew
of the cross-channel steamer Dresden,
who said that Diesel went on board
the steamer at half past five in the
evening of September 20 but, on
learning that the vessel was not to
start until half past seven, went
ashore and was not seen again.
The sailor declared he was con-
WINGED that DR.. Diesel did not cross
the channel since the steward did not
enter his name on the cabin list.

The Feast of Tabernacles, or Succoth,
the ancient harvest festival, will be
celebrated on the sixteenth. Then
comes Hoshannah Rabbah on the
twenty-second, Sh'mini Atseres on the
twenty-third and Simchas-Torah on
the twenty-fourth.
Mrs. Thomas Riley Marshall will
celebrate to-day the eighteenth ami
versary of her marriage to the enlin-
emit Hoosier lawyer who is now Vice
President of the United States. It
is said that Mr.. and Mrs Marshall
have not been separated for as long
as twenty-four hours since October 2,
1895, when Lois I. Kimsey became
Mrs. Marshall. The better half of
the 'tmost successful matrim onial firm
in America has set down several
rules for keeping a husband happy
and contented, among which are the
following: A woman should be the
companion of her husband, as well as
wife; she should not nag; she must
not spend one cent more than the
family income permits; she must not
depend upon a paid housekeeper to
supply the home atmosphere: she
must avoid silly fads; she must keep
the household machinery running
moothly, and she must remember
that, while a man may not mention
things that go wrong, he may be do
ing a lot of thinking.

Rosh Hashanah is a day of piety
and prayer, of remembrance, and of
Joy and gladness. The holiday ends
at shutdown tonight. but the ortho-
day. tomorrow. Services in the
synagogues open with the sounding of
the shofar or rams horn, hence the
day is sometimes called the Memorial
of the Trumpet. The purpose of the
horn is to rouse the slumbering con-
science of the sinner and to remind
the pious that this is a day of self
examination. The shofar or rams
horn has been used to call the faith
full to solemn assembly ever since the
beginning of the Jewish race. In re-
form CONGREGATIONS the rams horn
cornet, but the sounds of the ancient
instrument are reproduced.
PRAYERS following the blowing of
the horn. Among the orthodox,
those who observe the second day.,
the r'selihot'' or penitential prayers
are chanted. The adherents of the
ancient faith hold that on Rosh Hash
anah the book of fate is opened, and
the sinners are given an opportunity
to swear off, and to have a new and
more favorable entry following their
names. If they fail to repent of their
evil ways within the penitentia1 ten
days following New Year, they fall
under the sentence recorded in the
Psalms, Let them be b1otIed out OF
the book of the living and not be writ
ten with the righteous. The good
and pious Jew, too, reviews his life
during the last year, considers his
sins of omission and commission, and
makes solemn resolutions to do better.
Many customs that were in vogue
when the Jews were a nation in Pal
estine will be reproduced to-day in
many cities. The Tash1ik service, in
which bread is cast upon the waters
as tribute to the Creator on the an
niversary of creation, is one of those.
The holy penitential season of the
Jews will continue for three weeks.
The fast of Guadaliah will be observ-
ed next Sunday. The most solemn
day in the Jewish calendar, Yom-
Ripper, or the Fast of Exp1ation, falls
ktA-AS year on the eIeventh-4f October.
