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

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

Thursday afternoon the pr soner
was brought before Jnstioe or tne
Peace W. W. H. Samson, -and the
charge of assault with a dangerous
weapon was dismissed, while a

mile limit" of the fish rack was insti
tute'. Christner plead guilty to the
latter change, and a flue of -$50 wa
imposed, which he paid, -

Spring in Center of Business
District Probable Cause
V - of Trouble
The condition of the local typhoid
fever oases in looking much more
hopeful, and at present there seems to
be a chance of the victims escaping a
single fatality. 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.
