HobrewH are-1’iepMrlnti for •Tln-lr ispecia Holidays. Great preparations are being made by Hebrews the world over for the mouth of Tier!, wherein are celebrat ed the three most important Jewish holy days. The first of these, Rush Ha 8hana, falls on September 22 and marks the commencement of the 5(J64th Jewish year. The first ten days of the year are days of peni tence, and culminate in the Day of Atonement. Five days) after that is celebrated the Feast of Tabernacles —the Jewish Thanksgiving. Hebrew New Year’s Day has for its distinguishing feature the blowing of the “snofar”—a straight horn of an telope or wild goat. This trumpet call is designed to serve as a sum mons to all Israel to enter upon the open work of sanctification and prepare for the Day of Atonement. It is the Jewish belief that on this New Year’s Day the deeds of men are weighed and their destinies de termined. Atonement Day is the day of na tional humiliation, the only fast day commanded in the Mosaic law, and the j most widely observed of Jewish holy days. Business is suspended for that day by the most liberal as well as the most orthodox, and quiet pervades every Jewish community. A peculiar form of sacrifice is per formed by the strict Jew on the day preceding Atonement. Having pro vided himself with a fowl, properly slain by a rabbi,he takes it by the leg* aud, with uplifted hands, swings it nine times over the heads of himsel! and his company, and at the same j I time prays to God that the sins they have been guilty of during the year ; may enter into the fowl. He then J presents the fowl to the poor, with a gift according to his means. A feast precedes the fast, which is not broken until sunset the next day. ' This most mournful of Jewish holy j days is succeeded, five days later, hy | eight days of rejoicing, which are known us the Feast of Tuhe>rnaclP8 During this feast Israelites dwell in ■ booths made of the shoots of beauti- 1 ful trees, palm branches or williws j Eipecially welcome if the stranger, j the orphan or the widow This mode of living is partly a 1 thanksgiving after the ingathering of the harvest, and partly a reminder 1 that their fathers lived in tents in the wilderness. SHORT LOCAL ITEMS. Messrs, fetegall ife Moore have opened a meat market in the build ing formerly occupied by Dr VV. L Settlemyer, in rear of Holt’s old stand. Joe Littlejohn has severed his con nection with the Cherokee Drug company, where he has long been a familiar figure—polite courteous and obliging to the company’s patrons. He expects to take un the study of pharmacy, and will go to Richmond this week to enter college. The best wishes of Joe’s many friends in the city will go with him. Mr. J. N. Lipscomo is having a large tenement house erected on his lot on Robinson street, near the Gaff ney cotton mill The building will contain twelve rooms and is planned to accommodats four families, giving to each all the conveniences of a modern residence. We learn that Mr. Lipscomb is putting up the structure specially to rent. It’s nearness to the mill will make it particularly desirable to mill people. Revival Service*!. The revival meeting at the Presby terian church under the direction of Rev. R. F. McLees began Sunday morning. A good sized audience greeted Mr. McLees at his initial ser vice, when he preached a very strong sermon from the text of “Thomas 1 was not there.” Sunday night another large au dience greeted Mr McLees, and yes terday afternoon the congregation was altogether creditable. The services will continue each day at 4 p. m. and each night at 8 o’clock All are cordially invited to attend. L'p to-Date Kriltur. The editor of a rural newspaper happened to be in New York city about the time the shooting of Presi dent McKinley occurred Passing along the streets he no ticed bulletins iian^ing'iut in front of the newspaper offices announcing the condition of the or*'siient at dif ferent hours of the day. When the edhor returned home he learned that his neighbor, Deacon Jones, was very sick, so he decided to folIoav New York style. Hastening to his office he tacked up the fol lowing bulletin : 1.80 P M.—Deacon Jones is se riously sick. 2 80 P. M.—Deacon Jones has a re lapse. 3 30 P. M.—Deacon Jones’ friends summoned. 4.10 P. M.—Deacon Jones is dead ; and gone to Heaven. Later in the evening a traveling man passing by, read the bulletin and wrote th ■ following: 5 30 P. M.—Great consternation in Heaven.
