The Day of AtOnement.

The Day of Atonement is the holiest day in the Jewish calendar This year it falls on Saturday, the llth of October.
 After the destruction of the Temple in the year 70, when sacrifices were abolished, the Day Of Atonement was able to survive, and of all the holiday of the Jewist calendar, it has most completely held it's own in tue hearts and observation f the Jewish people
 Confession continues to be an in. portant feature of the service; yet, while confession brings forgiveness of sins between man and his Maker, sins betweenIman and man are not forgiven until redress is made for the injury. The eve of Atonement Day therefore, becomes the occasion for the cessation of feuds and iIL-wilI, and the Day of Atonement is known as Sabbath of Sabbat ths-when we are at peace with all the world
 Rabbi Dubrovner, of Memphis, will conduct services in the odd Eel lows hall, and all business houses owned by Jewish people will be closed in observance Of this holiday, from this Friday evening until Saturday evening.

Detroit, Mich, Dec. 4-"The Repupll-
can national committee has no author-
ity to change the basis of representa-
ton and voting in national conventions,
but the national committee has authorl-

of choosing delegates to future nation

delegates be chosen in such manner as
the laws of the several states from
time to time may provide
Delegates shall be chosen according
to the laws of the state they represent
instead of according to the discretion
of the committee itself, but the nation

a special national convention of the

Thursday morning saw no let up IN the

from all over Maine were in attendance
and a large number of our local citizens
availed themselves of the opportunity
TO see one of the finest exhibits of Maine

The literary program was given, as

Among these was Prof. A NJ. Goodman OF

first showed how these associations had
raised the standard of dairying in Dem

scarcely single one in that county that

LONG HARD WINTER
Congress Facing the Music;
Washington Settling Down.
A "Skimpy' Session Expected,
So Far as Appropriations Go.
Republican Leaders Welcome The
Strength Of Senator Burleigh.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 4-(SpeciaD
There are numerous matters OF ted
eral money which Maine men in Senate
and House will have to look after in
Congress this winter. The book of es-
Inmates which Secretary of the Treas
ury McAdeo forwarded to the House
the first day of the regular session in
dicatcs what some of these are. OF
course much money has been asked
where much less may be given. For
il is foregone conclusion that this will
be a skinny Congress in approprla-
tions. The Democrats will vote as lit
tie money as they can.
But in some cases the amounts
granted will he quite complete. For
instance, $332, geo are asked in appropri-
ations for the branch Of the Soldiers
Homo at Togus. Most, if not all OF
this will be necessary and the appro-
Friations committee must grant 1t.
However, many weeks will elapse be-
fore this item OF the estimates Will
actually be voted into law. II goes upon
the sundry civil appropriation bill,
which will not be made up till some
time next summer. II is one of the last
appropriation bills which Congress
tackles.
Requests for appropriations 20 carry
on public building work in Maine prob
ably will be granted by Congress.
Treasury officials say they need $780,
e29 As to complete the Bangor postof-
fee; $4,000 to complete the Camden
postoffice building and $4,000 to begin
the new postoffiee building at Gardiner.
These sums probably will be voted but,
like appropriations for the Togus home.
will not be reached till the sundry civil
bill is taken up. They will be. granted
as part of the appropriations for the
next fiscal year which does not begin
till July 1, next.

No Doubt as to
Final Outcome.

Washington, Dec. Administrative
officials here are viewing with satisfac-
ton evidence of the growing sense OF
responsibility on the part of the rebel
leaders in northern Mexico for the pro-
lection of life and property within the
territory in their possession The state
department request for the release OF
Americans held for ransom or arrest
ed on suspicion, are now receiving
prompt attention at the hands Of the
Constitutionalist generals, and it is ap-
parent that these officers III turn are
gradually exerting more power and i'm
posing greater restraints over their
subordinates.
Some semblanee of civil authority
also is beginning to appear in the
northern states, and Is meeting with
recognition at the hands of the mill
terry leaders. Although officials here
see indications that a regularly organ
lied civil government is about to be
evolved from the chaotic conditions
that have prevailed in taat section of
Mexico for the past nine months.

OF the reports that great oil companies
in the state of Vera NruZ, under
threats from the Insurgents, have can

the crude oil necessary to operate the
locomotives on the railways. Reports
to the department indicate there is
enough oil already above ground to
meet all the needs of the railroads for

there is no question as to the power or

of the question that would arise. Mir.
Warren, who wrote the opinion now
submitted, is a new member of the ma
t,onal committee. He was one of tho
lawyers for the United States in the
arbitration with Great Britain before

In reaching his conclusion Mr.. War

Dallas, Texas, Dec. 1.-THE Texas
flood center shifted southward, tonight,
toward the Gulf, centering from
Hearne to Richmond, where the flood
crest of Brazos river continued to do
great damage and cause some loss of
life At the same time the general
flood situation improved when rains
began to cease after three days con-
tinuous downpour over most of the
state and the creeks in north and
west Texas began to fall slowly. Be
fore relief came, the floods had over
spread five large river basins from
the headwaters of the Sable in north
east Texas to the San Antonio river
in the southwest.
The total number of dead as a re-
suit of the floods stood, early tonight,
at "a. Estimate of property damage
ranged between one and two million
dollars with Waco and San Antonio
the heaviest sufferers among the cities.
The San Antonio loss was quarter of
a million and Waco's damage was ex-
pected to be as great.

Boston, Dec. 4.--The contract for
the third aspirant for the defence of
the Americas cup, next year, will be
signed, tomorrow, in New York, it
was announced, tonight The yacht
will be built for syndicate of Phila-
delphia, New York and Boston yachts
men, probably by the Bath Iron
Works of Bath. Me-, from designs by
George Owen of Newton.
Mr. Owen and President John S.
Hyde of the Iron Works, left for New
York, tonight. and will meet Commo-
dore Z. Walter Clark of Philadelphia
and George NJ. Pynchon of New York,
who are the heads of the syndiNate,
in Mr.. Pynchon's office. 1t is expect
ed that the contract will be signed at
that time.
Mr. Owen carried with him the de-
signs for the new boat which is for
a 75-foot sloop. drawn on conserva-
tive lines, with no unusual dimensions
and in strict conformity with the
present rating rules. 1t is expected
that the yacht will be built of bronze
and that work will begin about the
first of the wear.
Her sailing master will be Capt.
Howell, who for several years has
acted III similar capacity on the
sloop Istalena, owned by Mr.. Pyn-
chon Commodore Clark and Mr.. Pyn-
chon will be in charge of the after
deck, as both are excellent Corinthian
sailors. It is known whether Capt.
Howell, Commodore Clark or Mr.. Pyn-
chon will actually be at the wheel OF
the yacht, but the three, in the opin-
ion of good yachtsmen, will make UP
a formidable trio for handling her.
Commodore Clark has been actively
engaged in racing for the past six
years, having held the wheel of the
sloop Irolita, later changed to a
schooner yacht Queen, which he also
renamed the Irolita.
While sailing the boat he has shown
unusual capabilities in yacht handling
although repeatedly defeated by the
somewhat larger schooner Elena,
owned by Commodore Morton f.
Plant of New London.

be built in the Lawley yards in Ne

STILL DRIVING POISONOUS
GASES INTO Mine TO KILL
THE MURDERER LOPEZ.

Bingham, Utah, Dec. 4-More poison
Gus gases were generated, today and to-
night, in the Utah-Apex mine, where
Ralph Lopez, the Mexican desperate,
took refuge a week ago than at any time
since Monday, when the smud9ing oper-
ations began. The use of wet gunpowder
to create a deadly black damp was re-
sumed today, and because of its density
the time before the deputies can search
the workings after the double bulkheads
are removed may be days instead of
hours.
The fate of the slayer of a fellow
countryman and later five peace officers
remained a matter of conjecture, no
sound of life having come from the mine,
since Monday. Unrelaxed guard, howev-
er, was maintained at the tunnel mouths.
