CARPET DF ROSES
FDR ROOSEVELT
IN PORTLAND
Colonel Gets Warm Welcome in
Oregon—"We Will Do the
Trick,” He Says.
PORTLAND, ORE. Sept 11—Upon
a blanket of roses. Colonel Roosevelt
Walked from bis train here today to his
automobile. The rosy path was the
Idea of the Progressive leaders to typi.
fy the roseate hue upon the third par
ty horizon in 'Oregon.
One hundred dozen roses were
strewn upon the path trod by the ex
president from the train to an auto
mobile outside the depot.
The original idea of the Bull Moosers
»is to toss the roses at the colonel, but
the chief of police objected. He said
some crank might throw something be
sides a flower. In an imposing parade
the ex-president was escorted to the
Hotel Oregon, where he conferred with
leaders in the Progressive tight.
The colonel was Informed that plans
for launching a complete third party
ticket in the state have been completed.
While the law calls for 5,000 names to
petitions necessary to put the third
party on the ballots for the primaries,
the Bull Moosers, the colonel was told,
already have obtained 7,500 names and
before the petitions go in tomorrow
they will have 10,000.
“Nothing Can Stop Us.”
“Fine," exclaimed the ex-president;
“we’ll do the trick in Oregon just m
we’ll do it in Washington. California.
Colorado and the other states of the
Northwest. Nothing can stop the Bull
Moose."
Roosevelt held an Informal reception
at the hotel after his conference with
the leaders and at no6n went tp lunch
as the guest of the Ad club and the
Rotary club.
Later in the day the ex-president
goes upon an automobile ride, speaking
before an assemblage of mothers and
children. The main speech of the dav
will be late in the afternoon at the
Gypsy Smith auditorium. Before leav
ing town the colonel will pay a visit to
the-Moose lodge.
Roosevelt was persuaded to make an
Informal talk to his Bull Moose lead
ers after his arrival at the Oregon ho
tel He adverted to "theft" of the
nomination at the Republican conven
tion and remarked that the Progres
sive party's birth was only hastened by
the "desperate plight of the bosses.”
"Now. we’re going to teach them tn
be a little more careful whom they
hold up in the future," said the colonel.
Maine Startled by
Colonel’s Statement
AUGUSTA MAINE. Sept 11 Maine
politicians were startled today by the In
terview given out at Tacoma when Theo
dore Roosevelt stated that the Maine elec
tion was a victory for the Progressives,
and that Governor Haines will come out
for the Bull Moose party after the elec
tion.
It is believed here that Colonel Roose
velt. without the aid of a steam roller,
but through the cleverest politics the
country has seen In many years, put a
full fledged Bull Moose in the governor’s
chair when the Republican party was
congratulating Itself on a big victory.
"We." the •'olonel is quoted as saying
in ’’’stoma, "named for the governor of
Maine the man the Progressives wanted,
and he wrote to me that he hoped we
would not make a fight against him; that
he was for me, and that he would come
out for us after the election.”

primary campaign. The biggest meet
ing of the day was scheduled to be held

RABBI MARX TELLS OF
SACRED HOLIDAYS JEWS
BEGIN WITH NEW YEAR
Atlantans of the Jewish faith be
gin this evening the observance
of the most sacred hours ’in the
Hebrew calendar, days of fasts and
feasts grouped in the closing weeks of
September.
Ro«h Hashanah, or the Jewish New
Year, as It Is commonly and recently
known, falls on Thursday, and. follow
ing the ancient custom, the day- is
counted from sunset to sunset, so the
Initial services of the New Year will be
observed in the tempi? at South Pryor
and Richardson streets tonight.
As the , losing weeks of December are
the holidays of the Christian, so the
closing weeks of September constitute
the holidays of the Jew. Following the
New Year comes the most sacred of
all Jewish holy days, Yom Kippur, the
Day of Atonement; falling this year on
Saturday September 21. After the sol
emnity of Yom Klppur comes the light
er and more joyous observance of Suc
coth and Atzereth, four days beginning
Wednesday. September 25, and closing
Thursday. October 3.
Strangely like Succoth and Atzereth,
which is really a festival of the harvest,
is the American Thanksgiving; al
though the American day' never car
ried to its observers the religious sig
nlgcance that Succoth and Atzereth do
to the Jew, except perhaps in the
early Puritan days.
Dr. Marx Tells Significance,
Services in Atlanta will be held in
the temple for the New Year's observ
ance Wednesday night, at 8 o’clock, and
Thursday morning at 10 o’clock. In
speaking of the observance, the Rev.
David Marx, rabbi of the Atlanta con
gregation, said: •
"The New Year is spoken of as the
Day of Memorial of the Blowing of the
Trumpet.’ The nature of the day is
suggested by its name, a period of
marking the passage of time and a mo-
RUSSIAN PRINCESS
THINKS AMERICAN
GIRLS TOO THIN
WASHINGTON, Sept. 11.— Princess
Gadarine. of Russia, who is accompanying
her husband on a tour of America, had
only words of praise today for the United
States and its women, but declared she
thought the latter are a little too thin
She attributed this to the "eternal hur
ry" of America's fair sex.
"One sees many beautiful women on
the streets." she said, "and I know why
foreign men admire American women so
much. Every one you see on the streets
Is well dressed, and, as a rule, American
women of good breeding are remarkably
slender. 1 think It a very good trait,
but In Europe one sees a little more
plumpness than here.”
Save the Babies.
INFANT MORTALITY is something frightful. We can hardly realize that of
all the children born in civilized countries, twenty two per cent., or nearly
one-quarter, die before they reach one year; thirtyseven per cent., or more
than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen!
We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a ma
jority of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these
infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures
and soothing syrups sold for children’s complaints contain more or less opium, or
morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. Tn any quantity
they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria
operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of
Chas. H. Fletcher, Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the
pores of the skin and allays fever.
E Letters from Prominent Physicians
addressed to Chas. H. Fletcher.
Dr. A. F. Peeler, of St. Louis, Mo., says: “I have prescribed your Castoria
in many cases and have always found it an efficient and speedy remedy.”
Dr. Frederick D. Rogers, of Chicago, 111., says: I have found Fletcher’a
Castoria very useful in the treatment of children’s complaints.
Dr. William C. Bloomer, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: In my practice I am
glad to recommend your Castoria, knowing it is perfectly harmless and
always satisfactory.
Dr. E. Down, of Philadelphia, Ta., says: "I have prescribed your Cas
toria in my practice for many years with great satisfaction to myself and
benefit to my patients.”
Dr. Edward Parrish, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: “I have used your Cas
toria in my own household with good results, and have advised several
patients to use it for its mild laxative effect and freedom from harm.”
Dr. J. B. Elliott, of New York City, says: “Having during the past six
years prescribed your Castoria for infantile stomach disorders, I most
heartily commend its use. The formula contains nothing deleterious
to the most delicate of children.”
Dr. C. G. Spracue, of Omaha, Neb., says: "Your Castoria Is an ideal
medicine for children, and I frequently prescribe it. While I do not advo
cate the indiscriminate use of proprietary medicines, yet Castoria is an.
exception for conditions which arise in the care of children.”
Dr. J. A. Parker, of Kansas City, Mo., says: “Your Castoria holds ths
esteem of the medical profession in a manner held by no other proprie
tary preparation. It is a sure and reliable medicine for infants and chil
dren. In fact, it is the universal household remedy for infantile ailments.”
Dr. 11. F. Merrill, of Augusta, Me., says: “Castoria is one of the very
finest and most remarkable remedies for infants and children. In my
opinion your Castoria has saved thousands from an early grave. I can
furnish hundreds of testimonials from this locality as to its efficiency
and merits.”

nition of the uncertainty of human life.
Its appeal Is entirely to the present and
to the Individual conscience.
"The sounding of the trumpet, the
Shofar, or ram's horn, Is a peculiar part
of the services of the day. It is a sym
bolic act, the call of the spirit, arous
ing the conscience to the contempla
tion of misspent hours and awakening
the Impulse to make the New Year
more fruitful.
"The day is observed completely, as
is the day of atonement. Yom Klppur.
Business houses are closed, ana many
hours are spent in the temple. Yom
Klppur. however, is a day of feast, and
Is even more rigidly observed than
Rosh Hashanah."
A Day of Fasting.
The Jewish holidays in their mean
ing fall into a natural sequence. The
festival of the harvest, the thanksgiv
ing, closes the observance.
Yom Kippur comes on Saturday, Sep
tember 21, and is the culmination of
ten days of meditation and reflection
ScripturaUy, it is known as the "Sab
bath of Solemn Rest."
"While the ancient service of the day,
with its elaborate ritual and imposing
priestly sacrifice, has disappeared,”
said Rabbi Marx, “the day is devoted
to prayer and penitence. The observ
ant Jew abstains completely from all
food and drink during the continuance
of the day."
The dosing days. Succoth and Atze
reth, are ones of thanksgiving—days of
festival and feasting.
The announcement of services for the
holidays are New Year, Wednesday, 8
p. m„ and Thursday, 10 a. m.; the Day
of Atonement. Friday, September 20, 8
p. m., and Saturday, 10 a. m.; Succoth

ASK $55,000 IN 2
RAILDEATH SOITS
Southern Also Defendant in
$25,000 Action Brought by
Mail Clerk for Injuries.
Three damage suits, amounting in all
to $ 15,000, were filed today in the Fed
eral court against the Southern Rail
way Company. In one of them, the suit
of R. B. Richardson, the allegation is
made that the engineer of a switch en
gine was running ’’recklessly’* and
struck a mail car which had been side
tracked in the Birmingham yards and
in which Richardson, a Vailway mail
clerk, was at work. The plaintiff al
leges numerous cuts and bruises and
asks $20,000.
Annie McHaney asks $30,000 for the
death of her husband. Joe McHaney,
aged 23, whose death, she alleges, was
caused by injuries received May 2,
1911. He was a ■ helper in the boiler
shop, his duties being to hold chisels
and other tools. He was struck on th?
hand by a hammer in the hands of an
other employee and blood poisoning re
sulted.
L. B. Riser, administrator of the es
tate of W. F. Riser, a switchman, who
was killed November 24, 1811, asks
$25,000. The suit alleges that the fore
man of she switching crew was asleep
in a distant shanty at the time of the
accident, which was caused by negli
gence and improper methods in switch,
ing cars.
These cases all were filed originally
in the superior court, but transferred
because the defendant is incorporated
under the laws of Virginia.
