IJI2fiIXM.\G OF JEWISH JTKW YEAH.
Evrnt lit Aiiroirlnlt | Iy Olixcrvvil at
Temple Isi'iK'l.
The Jewish New Year was ushered in at
sundown last evening , and services commem
orative of that event were held In Temple
Israel , this city. The evening services were
well attended , the synagogue being well
filled. The musical program was a pleasant
feature of the service. The Jewish New Year
does not commemorate any great event In
the national religious history of the Jews.
It Is purely n day Intended for spiritual
endeavor , for the uplifting of man above the
concerns of the material 'world. This Idea
was well exemplified by the address of the
evening service delivered by Rabbi Leo
Franklin.
In Ills discourse ho drew a beautiful word
picture of the four principal stages of man's
existence , and his discontent , or ambition ,
through all of them. When an Infant the
ambition was for unreal things , the babe
reaching after shadows and other Intangible
objects. When the child has grown to Mie
ago of youth ho wanted more play and his.
chief desire was for more amnsement and
pleasure. Later the youth advanced to the
stature and age of man , and then his .ambi
tion was for more of business success more
financial gain , greater riches. At the last ,
as an old man. he wanted more of lirp. On
bis deathbed man's desire was that he might
have more days added to his life. Through
out his life ho craved for more of something.
In the course of his remarks Rabbi Leo
Franklin s-ald : "Poets and artists have Just
failed to reach the goal of their ambitions ,
and blessed discontent Is theirs. Some call
It ambition , some call It discontent , but who
Oaro sny that ewsli discontent Is not blessed ?
Great Inventors have suffered this discon
tent. They , like others , have discovered that
the further a man progresses the further
away does his goal appear. The brute eats ,
drinks and sleeps , but It Is reserved for
man to feel the burning desire of ambitious
tic-sire to make the morrow better than was
life's yesterday. Aspiration Is the most
natural result of the meeting of human and
of the divine in the human heart. This fact
Is corroborated both by poetry and by phil
osophy. The labor of man's hand must ever
ha Incomplete. If success should come there
Is still the burning deslro for more. Though
the Epin of man's life should be trebled his
life would be no different. We llvo In deeds
and not In years. In the great book of life
H depends only on the clearness of the writIng -
Ing and not on the number of pigcs actually
written whether or not those pages may bo
read by those who come after us. Let us ,
therefore , bo 'Wise today , for tomorrow we
may sot the fatal precedent. And may this
now year bo a year of blosslng and content.
May It shed.Us . brightest light in the homes
of ell. May It make your lives beautiful
and blessed. "
MUSIC AT OMAHA. CHUIICIIRS.
Exprllriil ScTvloc by the Choir lit
'IV m i > If I > trirl I.iiHtIuhl. .
The choir at Temple Israel last night , on
the occasion of the celebration of Hoah
Hashona , consisted of the following well
known singers : Mrs. L. T. Sunderland , so
prano ; Mrs. A. P. Ely , contralto ; Mr. Walter
Wilklns tenor , and Mr. Paul Ucresford , bass ,
Miss Margaret Houlter Is the organist. The
threa anthems wore , "I Will Lift .Mine
Eyes , " by Sudds : "Tho Lord Is My Light , "
by lilies , and " 0 , Worship the Lord , " by
Watson. In the last there Is a flue dramatic
bans solo that was well sung by Mr. llcrcfl-
ford. The service jjnvo abundant opportuni
ties to the choir for beautiful musical effects
anil they were always equal to them. Mrs.
Sunderland Is the regular standby of the
Temple and Is "a stronghold sure. "
The JEWS are one of the most musical na
tions of the whole world , and hero In Omaha
there are a number of thoroughly trained
and eompt'tent filngcrs ; yet the Temple Israel
choir is entirely Gentile , With HO beautiful
a service to sing ! ono would expect to find a
largo , well trained chorus chanting that
ancient litany and singing the songs of Hal-
evy , MendcUsohn , Meyerbeer and Rubinstein ,
and reminding one that , of all ancient people
ple , the Jews brought music to the highest
place.
The music yesterday morning at Trinity
cathedral was worthy to do honor to the
cathedral of a bishop. The elaborate musical
service of the Protestant Episcopal church
affords ample opportunity for the display of
musical talent and of an artistic apprecia
tion of the requirements of a religious
service. Mm. Cotton la the leader of the
choir , which numbers about fifty singers ,
amoiu ; whom are a dozen well trained boya ,
Besides the ctienis there la a solo quartet ,
of which Mrs. Cotton Is the soprano. Miss
Sadie Dowen the contralto , Mr. Walter Wlf-
Itlns the tenor and Mr. Paul Dercsford the
bass. Mr. J. K. Butler IH the organist. All
of these musicians are among the most pro-
llcleiit In the city and are Individually very
popular In their church.
The "To Deuiu" nung yesterday was by
Vogrlch of New York. As a wb.ola it is a
creditable composition , but there are parts
that are exceedingly trivial. The "Jubilate"
was by Ilolden , also of Now York. The. best
thing that ran be ald of It Is regarding the
way In which It was rendered , especially Mr.
liiitli-r'a registration of the accompaniment.
Mrs. Cotton and Mr. Wllklnn sang as a
duet the song known as "Oharlty , " by Fauro ,
and gave It a finished and artistic Interpreta
tion. Trinity can do much for the upbuild
ing of the cause of good music In this city
and as much may be expotited of It In the
future as has been rendered In the pant , and
that Is much.

Tile proprietors of the dancing girls' show
are In trouble among themselves. The show
was operated In the Hellman building at
Thirteenth and Kirnara streets during the
fair , and the receipts are said Ul have been
quite large so much so that there was con-
Blderablc strife among the proprietors to
see who should gut the most of the monjy.
Last Friday night ( ho struggle became o
animated that the show had to be closed
while the irartiiers settled their differences.
The proprietors were C. J. Sturgls , Robert - | I
ert Turney and Jack Wade. Sturgls opcr- i
ated a side show on the fair grounds , whllo
the other two looked alter the World's fair
< laueliig girls In the city. Turney and Wade i
say .that Sturgls failed \vKli his slum- , and j I
Is trying to get more than his share of the
receipts of the uptown branch. SturgU , on
the other hand , alleges 'that the other two |
are trying to beat him out of his proper
proportion of the profits of their joint outer- |
prise , and that he will not penult this to i
be done If ho can help It.
Sturgls went before Justice Cockrell and !
secured a "writ of attachment upon the prop- j
crty of the company In Uio llollmau build
ing. Yesterday the other partners went
to Justice Foster and secured a writ of
replevin and took 'the ' property away. Then
the legal lights employed In the case began
looking up 'the ' law for further relief , which
resulted In the property being returned to
the building , to bo held under the attach
ment. At Intervals of an hour or two yes
terday some one of the parties would visit
the building to see that everything was still
Intaot. Saturday night a constable and two ,
assistants slept In the building to guard
the property , and It Is alleged that Uiey
were armed to the teeth.
Yesterday evening representatives of both
sides visited the building at Mio same time
and each expressed great doubts of the In
tegrity of 'the ' other , and asserted his own
particular brand of honor. After consid
erable wordy war they stipulated with a
policeman who has that beat that If he
saw any one trying to entpr the building IIP
should arrest him. This the copper promised
to do If he happened to be In th" vlelnl'v
when the attempt was Tiiade. Then the
parties at issue consumed some time In
statements to prove that each was a royal
good fellow , seeking only what was right
and just to himself and his. after which
they parted , with many bark-ward glances
to meet In Jtfstlce Cockrell's court today
to settle the dispute.

NKW YORK. Sept. 2G. A disappointing
rye crop Is Indicated by .final returns to the
American Agriculturist. Instead of some
2S 000,000 bushels , expected from earlier In
dications. the crop of the United States now
figures out about 215.000.000 bushels , l.OOO.OOn
bus-hols moro than last year and 2,000.000
bushels less than. In 1803 and 1891. The In
crease Is mainly In Pennsylvania , the west
ern crop being quite disappointing.
latest European crop reports are con
firmatory of serious shortages In rye espe
cially In Russia. Germany's crop seems to
bo somov. hat larger than earlier reports In
dicated , but reduced estimates for France
nnd other countries barely offset this.
Stocks of rye at. home and abroad arc
lower than for years , ami export demand for
American rye continues very ctivo. Since
during the fall of 1895 and 1S96 rye has not
been so low since before 1S90.

CLEVELAND. 0. , Sept. 2fl. From talks
with iron ore dealers It Is learned that the
movement of ore from thp upper lake mines
this yeir will beat all records. H Is now
estimated that 13,000,000 tons will bo mar
keted this season and next spring Is likely
to nnd all the docks clear. This will be-
unprecedented. Last year the stocks In the
spring amounted to 3.000,000 tons. About 9o
per cent of the allotment of the ore asso
ciation has already been sold and prices
show a buoyancy under the heavy sales. H
Is believed the ere pool which existed prior
to last spring will be reorganized next
spring.

authentic news concerning Washington's
new Eldorado m-ar Mount Hakcr and Jio\r
to get thenla brought to Seattle by K. W.
Sanortas , president of the Information Reg
istry , who , with Frank C. Rydo and ( Jus
Wngner , experienced miners of lUwion
City , went to the scene of the latest excite
ment a week ago. According to Mr. Sa
porUs.the route Is paceable and not very
illfllcult until within live miles of the iliul.
The last the miles , howevrr , present ob
stacles that would forever discourage any
one not an experienced prospector aiul
mountaineer. There Is In Mount liakcrnml
Us surrounding holghts enough gold , says
Mr. Saporlas , to keep prospcctow busy for
the next live years , in samples of ore that
were brought back bythe Informant Mr.
Ilogardus , the assayer , by a cursory Inspec
tion , declared that free gold existed In ex-
ceedlngly good quantities.
"I met many men. " continued Mr. Sn-
portas , "who came from Mount Tumohoy
and they all related the stories coiii-i'i-iiing-
the great strike of $ IO , ! > 00 to the ton' mnilo
in Tomuhoy and ao\oral others have found
ere equal to the discovery In Dear moun
tain. "
A spr-clal correspondent of the Evening
Times sends word from Summa as follows :
"The gold discoveries In the mountains ot
Whntcom county arc beyond any
doubt the richest In the annals ot the 1'a-
olllc coast , or oven In Alaska. So say Iho
most experienced prospectors whom 1 have
just a c-ompanlttl to the scene of the recent
llnils. The recent find Is ! n Hals mountain ,
situated In the northeast portion of What-
com colllllv. nni-thn.isl f Mniint llnl/.i , . n-1 , . .
mineral range runs northwest and southeast
and today In located for thirty miles. There
Is no tolling how much farther It extends ,
"The vein In the live claims , Ix > no Jack ,
Ilennlo. Sidney , Lutua and Whist , varies
from three to five fcot In thickness. It runs
under a layer of porphyry ledge In a serpen
tine 'manner ami auriferous shale appears
In the ledge. It Is free milling quartz anil
sugar and rose color carrying copper and
silver. The volti can bo traced half a mile.
The cropping Is under solid porphyry. The
gold Is known as 'wire gold' and MII bu
, seen with the naked eye and plokod out
I with the fingers. That great quantities of
It exist there Is no iloulit. Thp forma Ion
of 'the range In which the find Is loratoil
docs not look to ho very rich In minerals.
If there Is any placer mining It has not
yet been demonstrated 'o be a payln.1
proposition. "
