of the world.
The first day of the month Of Tishri,

Friday evening. In this period there
Is among the pious and Orthodox Jews

and work of all kinds, except such as
may come under the head Of works
of charity and necessity. The Re
/ form Jews celebrate one day only.
Services will be held this evening
and tomorrow in all Jewish houses O
worship.
The day has also a distinctive socia
feature. During the afternoon tomor
row many social calls will be exchang
ed. New Year felicitations are sen

cards bearing the Hebrew words o
New Year greeting.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 1.-If pres
ent indicationr are verified, the COM
Ing contest OF the worlds champion
ship IN baseball will attract the great
est crowd in the history Of the ma
uonal pastime. This is due not only
TO the great growth in popularity
which the game has had In recent
years owing to the high plane on
which 1t Is conducted but also be-
cause there has never been a post
season series in which the contenders
we're so evenly matched as are the
Athletics and the Giants.
Giants May Have Rest Pitchers.
The general opinion is that the
Athletics are superior in every de-
partment Of the game except pitch
Ing and that the Giants have the edge
on them there. This view cannot be
accepted by those who know the
strength Of Chief Bender. Eddie Plank
and the younger members of the hurl-
ing staff. There is no doubt, however,
that the majority of the fans believe
that the result of the series is a toss
up and that neither team will walk
away with the classic.
Athletic rooters who are willing TO
back up their faith in the team by
placing wagere on the series are hav-
Ing a hard time In finding takers for
their money. Over in New York
stories are being printed that the
Giants followers are Offering odds of
70 and to 5. but no one has as
yet disclosed the identity of the men
who are willing to give odds against
the Athletics In sporting circles here
the coming world series is regarded
ns an even betting proposition At
the Stock Exchange several brokers
who think Connie Mack Will repeat
have made up a fat purse which they
will take over to New York the day
before the opening game to place at
even money.
Public Sale OF Tickets Starts Monday.

became of the bonehead variety at the
crucial and deciding moment, with the
result that the Boston Red Sox won

Snodgrass so hard when he muffed

MARRIAGE LAWS
OF STATE EvADfD
DECLARES court
Judge Davis Holds Shawver
Marriage Was Legal
Suggests Legislation to
Remedy Condition.

Martha Shaver and Albert O.
Shaver were legally married. In
spite Of the fact that the ceremony
was performed less than three weeks
after the wife had obtained a decree of
divorce and the time limit fide by the
statutes of this state is six months
Judge Carl A. Davis today decided that
the Idaho laws cannot apply outside of
the territorial limits of the state, and
that consequently the marriage must
be held valid.
To correct the inconsistency of the
laws OF Idaho on this point, bill will
be Intro duced in the present session OF
the legislature refusing recognition to
a ceremony that is performed with the
idea OF evading the Idaho laws.
The court quotes the sections of the
statutes that provides for the six
months time limit and the one that
recognizes marriages as legal If they
are legal in the state where they are
performed. He considers the two pro-
visions as contradictory and believes
that the legislature should take steps
to correct the difference In the two
sections.
In commenting on the points raised,
the court says: This state should
make aad enforce its own laws rela-
tive to the qualifications of its citizens
to marry and should not permit such
laws to be evaded by subterfuge. nor
should the state permit that to be
indirectly which cannot be done di-
rectly, where such acts result in a
fraud upon our laws
The court holds that the laws of this
state cannot usually have an extra ter
ritorial extent and that the statutes,
as they now stand, do not prevent citi
zens of Idaho from crossing he state
lines, marrying contrary to Idaho laws,
and returning here for residence.
