Several Stores Close SERVICES IN PORTLAND Rosh Hashana, New Year's Day, the Ten Days Pre- . ceding Yom Kippur Observed All of the business houses in this , city operated by Jewish people closed from sundown Friday evening till sundown Saturday evening, in cele bration of the Jewish New Year 5(169, which was ushered in at sundown Friday night. From Rosh Hashana, as the new year is called, till Yom Kippur,, ten days later, the greatest holidays of the Jewish year occur, and every one of the intervening days have their special services. The Sabbath (Saturday) between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur is One of the most important of the Jewish holidays, as that is the day of peni tence foi the past year. All of the Jewish population of ttiis city jour neyed to Portland Saturday, where they attended the services in the syn agogues. The storos, which wore supposed to have been closed .all diy Saturday, weie opened at six o'clock in the evening as a mutter of con venience to the public. This is the beginning of the year 5069 of the Hebraic calendar, which is traditionally supposed to ccunt from the creation of the world. The festival is observed by the reformed and orthodox alike, except that the former obBeive one and the latter two days. It is a season, of rejoicing, and many families become reunited daring its celebration. While New Year's day services are of a solemn character, as are the ten days that follow, the most solemn day of the year is Yom Kippur, or the Day of Atonement, whim conies 88 a climax to the ten days of peuitenne. The Jewish calendar contains two New Year days. Rosh Hashanah in I eld by tradition to be the day on which God oreated the earth. 1 It tails either in September or October of the Christian year, being reckoned by the new moon of the seventh mouth, Tishir. Abib is the first month in tne religious year, and cor responds with March or April, the year dating from the moon after the vernal equinox. The prophets apeak of t ie sacred year, while - those in secular employment reckon it by the DiffVreut from the ordinary concep tion Rosh H&shaunh has a deep re ligious significance. It is called in the Bible the"- day of remembrance, the day of judgment and the dBy of blowing the shofar, or trumpet It is more than anything else really the preparation for the great Yom Kip Wherever Wheels Turn Electric Motors arc Needed No matter what they drive or where I ..... , they are These Anyone Portland Railway, Light & Power Co. Q. G. MILLER, Ment Oregon Gity, , Oregon pur, or Day of Atonement. The days between Rosh Hashanah anil Yom Kippur are known as the awful days, or the ten days of peni tenoe, each of which is observed as a half-feast day by the more orthodox Jews, vhile the Yom Kippur itself is invariably observed as a complete fast. -The rabbinical allegory that on Rosh Hasahaoah God commands the recording angel to open tne books of each ones sins and merits, leaving the record open to be finally and irrevocably closed on the Yom Kip pur. indicates at once the significance of the day and the appropriateness o" calling the New Year the day of re membrance, judgment and of blowing the shofar. The Saccoth, or Feast of the Taber nacles, which corresponds with the Christian Thanksgiving, concludes the cycle ot holy days with a week 'g oele brution, and, us in all such cases, the first and last days of the observance are marked by religious services. This week is really the thanksgiving festival whioh is largely anilogoua to the modern harvest home. Jt par takes in no wise of the nature of the two preceding holy days and is con nected with tliein only in time. This feast belongs rather to the cycle of the three pilgrimages, concluding the Passover, the Peutacost and. the f east of Tabernacles. Fifty Dollars for Shootlnj Fish . . W. Christner of Gray's Crossing, was arrested Sunday afternoon on the hanks of the1 Clackamas by Deputy Fish Warden Louis Rail on charge of shooting salmon. When arrested by Rail, Chrisiner had a ritie in his hands. A search of his person re vealed a revolver, and while the war don was engaged in unloading the lat ter the prisoner, who gave his name as Williams, suddenly struck him a blow in the back of his head, nearly felling him. Rail managed to keep his feet, and after quite a struggle succeeded in reducing Christuer to a state of subjection. Christ ner was brought to this city and locked in the county jail on charge of attempting to commit assault with a dangeous weapon. During the struggle on the river, Ohristner claims he lost about f 120 t Thursday afternoon the pr soner was brought before Jnstioe or tne Peace W. W. H.

Gaylord Godfrey, whose condition for some time was very grave, has taken a turn for the better, aud he is on the road to recov ery. Edeeu O. Poud, the stenogra pher in the Courier olHce., who some time ago was fatten to St. Vincent's hospital in Portland in the hopes of allaying the prevalent malady, is re covering rapidly, and Dr. Souiuier an nounces that he will leave the hospi tal in a few days. Ralph Grove, son ot Mrs. Ida West, is also improving, as is Mrs. Tina Silvers. The Caue mah patients, Mr. aud Mrs. Benjamin Hayhurst, are convilefoent after a six weeks' attack. The rapid spread of the disease caused a number of citi zens to investigate the cause in the hopes of stopping an epidemic, and tie source of the disease is now be lieved to be the oln spring back of the Weiuliard building. Tins spring is very cool, aud for the past 25 years has been considered tfee finest water in the city and used by a great many for drinking purposes. Years ago, when the br wery was in operation, the water ot the spring was used in the process of making beer, aud was piped from its source on the hill to a reservoir at the brewery, and as the water was constantly used, there is no doubt at the time, the water was the best obtainable. The brewery was abandoned several years ago, and as no care was taken of the spring, it went to rack, and gradually the pipes began to disintegrate allowing seepage from Singer hill creek and tne hill to contaminate the water. About four years ago, the buildings occupied by the brewery burned to the ground, and siuce that time the spring has been uncovered and exposed to the flying particles of dust, an ideal breeding plaoe for fever germs. Nearly all of the fever : patients have been drinking water from the spring, and there Is no doubt but that they can attribute the cause of their ill ness to this fact. Poud was wont to use the spring water on account ot its being so much cooler than, the city water. Luckily tor them, the rest of the Courier force disoontinued drink ing the water after using it but a few days Godfrey and F. Sohoeiiborn, both of whom aie clerks in V. Har ris' grocery, situated but a short dis- profit tauee from I he spring, used the spring as a source of drinking, as did Mrs. Tina Silvers, who is employed in Blook's. The Hayhursts conduct a tea store ou Seventh street near the depot and their drinking water was carried from the spring. This evidence poiuts very strongly at the spring as one of the causes of the disease, and steps will be taken to stop any further use of the water. On Tuesday of this week Dr. Nor ris, oity and county health physician, took the matter of the spring in charge and closed the same to the public pending an investigation of the water. Death of Mrs. Stelnraeler. Mrs. Elizabeth Steiuuieier died at the residence of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Stoever, on Twelfth and Munroe streets, at four o'clock Thursday morning.

I Continued on page six Foot Ball this Season If the plans of a number of local young football enthusiasts mature, Oregon Oity will be represented on the gridiron this year by one of the fastest elevens that the town ever produoed. The matte" has boen talked of for some time, and Sunday a number turned out for an initial tryout and practice at Cam mah park, where, considering the faot that this was their first time together, the playera executed a number of various plays with remarkable quickness. Lloyd Wesley, tho stur tackle of the Willamette University toam for the fiast two years, has siguined his will ngness to coach the team, as have a number nf other older nl a vers, aud i 7r 7 " , ; ,r i . i oonsidering the fact that a team last year, cunipimeu vi h uuiuutir ui butt players trying oat tor positions on the present team, made a very cred itable showing with little or no couching, the team tnis year should be able to make a number of elevens sit up and take notice. The team will be very light, averaging about 1115 pounds, but they will depend more ou quick, varied styles of play than on the smashing line plays that asuiplus of beef permits. Among those who turned out yesterday were Martin Roos, Harry White, Harry and Martin Seller, Charles N-lnou, Ivan Ownbey, Walter Moore, Charles Trusoott, and Bradford Call ft. It is expected that more will be p esent at the next practice. Trusoott is a new man, coming to this oity recently from Das Moines, la., where he played with the Settlement House eleven, the junior campions of thai city. Philip Sinuot has been elected manager ot the team, bnt tho office of captain has not as yet been filed. It has boen several years since the town has demonstrated its willingness to support a team, but this year, en couraged by the vim with which the players have taken hold of the idea of forming a championship team, a num ber of business men have signified tlieir willingness to give the boys all the help possible. A paper is being circulated to find the amouut of finan cial support that will be given the team, aud those who are circulating it are wort than phamd with thti williug manner in which funds are being subscribed. It is the intention of the team to take a trip to Salem, and there try conclusions .with tha higb aohool team.
