The Original Thanksgiving Day

Succoth. the original Thanksgiv-
ing Day sof ancient Isrea1, better
known as the Feast of the Taber-
nacles, comes this year on Monday.
October II. and is observed for seven
days. ending on October "a with the
Feast Of Conclusion or Shemini At
zereth. Services are held in the
Synagog' on the first and last day.
In the light of its Biblical origin,
Succoth is characteristic harvest
festival having its inception and
significance in an agricultural era.
1t is known in Scripture as the Feast
Of Ingathering Exodus 23:16). when
the ancient Israelitish farmer gath
cred in the fruit of his fabors out of
the field
Succoth is associated in the early
history Of the Hebrews with their
journey through the wilderness when
they were compelled to live in tents
or temporary dwellings. In Levitt
Gus 23:42,43 it is said: I'VE shall
dwell in booths seven days
that your generation may know that
l made the children of Israel to dwell
in booths when I brought them out
of the land of Egypt"
After the disruption of the Com
monwealth of Israel, the festival as
sumed the character of a harvest
feast, which it still has in modern
times, The idea remains prominent
among the Jewish people that the
fruit of the orchard and increase Of
the field are evidences of the good
ness of God, Whose mercies are ever
lasting
During this period the synagogs
are decorated with fruits and flowers
and the products of the field. The
service is of joyful nature ex
pressive of gratitude for all the
bounties and benefits and helpfulness
vouchsafed by God. In many reli-
gious schools, harvest pageants and
celebrations are enacted. in which
the children are the performers.

MISS CLARKE ONCE
INTENDED SUICIDE
Had She Done So Her Parents Would
Have Realized $42, 900 BY 1t.
tRy The Associated Press.>

ORLANDO, Fla, Aug. 7.-Authori-
ties announced today that they had
definitely established that Miss Lena
Clarke, postmistress at West Palm
Beach, alleged to have confessed to a
$32, 900 postal theft, and now held in
Jail here in connection with the killing
of w. H. Miltimore, former postal en-
ploy, in her room at a local hotel here
Monday night. had no connection
with the murder of Joseph B. Elwell
wealthy clubman, in New York in June
1920.
They established, they say, that Miss
Clarke has not been north of Atlanta
Ga, since she was an infant
Elwelps name was brought into the
case by excerpts from an alleged
statement made public by the authori-
ties last night. This purported con-
fession, some 1000 words in length,
was made public in full today by
Sheriff KareI, of Orange county. 1t
is said to contain no further important
details.
1t is described by the woman, au-
thorities say, as the history of her
life, beginning with the loss If 5000
from the postoffice while her brother,
Paul Clarke, was postmaster in 1918,
and ending with the killing of Milti-
more. As to the actual killing of the
man, however, the alleged statement
is hazy, and quotes the woman as say
ing she had been without food for two
days previously and does not 'remem-
Der it."
Elwell, according to the alleged
statement, a winter visitor to Palm
Beach, loaned the woman the money
to cover the loss for which she be-
neves Miltimorq responsible. later
Elwell called for an optional settle
ment the alleged confession contin-
ues, and rather than submit to his
demands, she entered upon a career
of doctoring the postoffice accounts.
Miss Clarke's attorneys announced
today that they would not attempt
to obtain her release by habeas COR
pus proceedings, but gave no indica-
ton as to when they would ask for
a preliminary hearing.
Funeral services Were held at To-
for MiItimore, after which the body,
accompanied by relatives, was sent 10
his former home at West Palm Beach
for burial.
The alleged statement relates how
Miss Clarke hoped. to repay the $32,-
900 theft by committing suicide with
the appearance of an accident. Her
parents would have realized $4,000
in this event, according to the alleged
statement, but her plans were ADAM
doned when other employees came I'M
der suspicion.
Just before Christmas 1920, when
her manipulations of the accounts be-
came embarrassing, the alleged state
ment continues, her brother Paul,
promised to help her. but he died
Christmas day as the result of a
snake bite in the mouth.

quent at that point years ago, until a
lightship was built in 1901. The only
notable wreck since was the sinking,
about Is years ago, of the steamer, CO.
lumbia, with a heavy loss of life. The
owners of the Alaska, incidentally, also
owned the Columbia.
Fogs have prevailed along the Wash
ington, Oregon and Northern Cali
fornia coasts for two weeks and several
shipping casualties have occurred, the
most notable being the wreck of the
Canadian government steamer, Ca
madam Exporter, Of South Bend, Wash
ington, last week.
Praise was mutually extended be-
tween members of the crew and pas
| sengers in their stories of the scenes
following the crash. Despite the isola-
ton Of the ship which was developed
in fog with the swells dashing against
1t and throwing sprays from the jagged
rocks off the reef, calmnesss prevailed
among the passengers and crew It
was a short time that seant thirty
minutes between the striking on the
rocks and the sinking. BIT without
signs of disorder the passengers were
helped into the life boats under the
calm direction of officers and crew
and lowered into the water.
Captain Hobey's heroic direction of
the life saving was of such a thrilling
example that several men passengers
stayed by his side as the women and
children were taken first into the
boats.
The vessel slowly listed and right
ing itself suddenly plunged. An over
turned life boat shot many passengers
into the water. There was a half
hour of bleak darkness with the life
boats drifting in the blanket of fog
before the siren of the rescue steamer,
Anyox, was heard.
Captain Snoddy, Of the Anyox, and
his crew deffed the treacheries of the
reef in carrying on the rescue work,
but 1t was with difficulty that the
victims in life boats and many in
life preservers or dinging to drifting
wreckage were found All through the
night the rescuers worked, picking UP
many who had been struggling in the
water, clinging to vreckage, for hours.
One of the last survivors, picked up
was Irene Dyer. a girl not yet in her
teens who had beer clinging to wreck
age for more thar eight hours.

| MAKING LOG MAP OF
BEE Line HIGHWAY
CampbeIIton People to Open Tourist
Camp Along the Route.

CAMPBELLTON, Aug. 7.-ThaC
Holt of Birmingham, accompanied by
L. F. Sessions of Ozark, Ala, came
through here yesterday on their triT
over the Bee Line highway. Mr.. Holt
is making a log map of the route which
will be distributed to the tourist trav-
cling from the north.
While here he arranged with Mr.
J. H. Fears, vice president and cashier
Of the Central State Bank, to open a
tourist camp on some very beautiful
lots owned by him along the route.
Heretofore tourists have been rout-
ed or diverted from the Bee Line high
way and routed through south Geor-
gia, via Townsville, and then on to
South Florida, but from now on they
will be routed direct over the Bee Line
which runs from Nashville, Tenn, to
Orlando, Fla, via Tallahassee.
Mr.. Sessions is one of the coanty
commissioners from Dale county and
one of the best road boosters in
southern Alabama. He is using his
own car and taking Mr.. Holt over
the line at his own expense in order
to put the proposition through in a
big way.
The camp that is to be opened up
here will have rest house, seats,
tables and plenty of accommodations
for the tourist when camping here.
They left for the southern portion
of the trip. They were delighted with
the condition Of the roads in this Sec
ton.

CARUSO'S VOICE
CAUSES WEEPING
New York Audience Overcome When
Records of His Songs Are
Reproduced.
(sy The Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Aug THE voice of
Enrico Caruso. reproduced on a phono-
graph record, moved a large assembly of
his friends to tears today when they
gathered at the Metropolitan opera house
to pay tribute to the great tenor who
died last week
Opera singers, musicians, professional
men and patrons OF music mingled with
stage hands, Iaborers and gallery gods
at the memorial services. A large por-
trait of the tenor, draped in American and
Italian flags, occupied conspicuous place
and beneath were several floral wreaths
from directors and managers of the Met
ropolitan Opera company, stage hands
and attendants.
F. Coppius, secretary Of the Metropor-
tan company, and one-time manager for
Caruso, told the story of a wager which
the great tenor lost because he failed to
understand the psychology of an opera
audience.
An argument arose among members of
the opera company, then playing in Phil
adelphia, as to whether an audience ap-
plauded great singer because of his
singing or because he was a star.
Caruso, who was ready to go on in his
famous role of Canio in "Pagliacci."
wagered that the audience would recog
nize his voice and to prove his contention
volunteered to sing a serenade which falls

see him, remained silent. Not a single

paid the wager.
