The of Passover, a Jewish
religious observance, begins Monday
evening at 6 o'clock, and the occasion
will be marked by impressive serv
ices in all Jewish temples.
Rabbi David Marx, of -the Hebrew
Benevolent Congregation, in speak
ing pf the Passover celebration in
Atlahta, this morning said:
“While the entire week will be fes
tive in its nature, the public worship
for Passover observance will be held
Monday evening at 6 o’clock, Tues
day morning at 10 o’clock and Sun
day afternoon at 6 o’clock. The last
service will be held the Monday
morning following.”
Short History Prepared.
The Central Conference of Amer
ican Rabbis has prepared a short his
tory of the Feast of Passover, and
the important traditions of the cele
bration are set forth, in part, as fol
lows:
“Passover has, from antiquity,
been taken to commemorate the de
liverance of the Israelites from Egypt
after 430 years of servitude.
“Compliant with the Biblical com
mand, the observant Jew, during the
Passover week, abstains strictly from
the use of all leavened substances. In
stead of thp ordinary yeast bread, a
species of large cracker called Mat-
zoth, or unleavened bread, is eaten.
During Passover week the orthodox
Jew will not even use the same, dishes
and utensils in which leavened food
has been placed.
First Service Significant.
“The most significant and beautiful
aspect of the Passover celebration is
the service held within the Jewish
home on the first evening of the feast.
“The members of the family and
their guests sit around the supper ta
ble, which is spread with festive ele
gance. Upon the table are the ‘bitter
herbs’ and the roasted shank bone, the
egg, the parsley, the bowl of salt
water, the unleavened bread and oth
er symbols. The service is chanted
from a curious old book called the
‘Haggadah,’ which tells about the de
liverance from Egypt.
“As a rule, the topic for pulpit dis-
quisitoin on Passover—particularly in
the Reform’ synagogues, where
preaching is a regular feature of the
services-*is related to the -theme of
‘liberty.’ ”
PARIS, April 18.—By means of the
invention of an Italian engineer, Gal-
etti, It is hoped that within ten days
it will be possible to communicate
by wireless from Fhambery. in the
southeast of France, to New York.
A wireless station has been erected
on a high cliff in tho village of Les-
chauz, near Uhambory.
Dispensing with antennae, Galetti
has set up two posts eight meters
(about 26 feet 3 inches) high. These
are connected by a wire from which
a series of other wires 900 meters
long (about 2,952 feet) converge to
the operator’s cabin at the foot of the
cliff. Galetti obtained authority to
test his system from the French Post
Office Department, which, working in
co-operation with. Italy and the
United States, e^p^cts eventually to
exploit the Lesehauz station for the
purposes of direct communication
with New York. Galetti express
satisfaction with the preliminary
trials.

Fatter Foss Gets
Champion Walking Governor Says
Labor and Long Hours Are
NOT Weight Reducers.
BOSTON, April 18.—Governor Foss,
the country’s champion gubernatorial
walker, is gaining weight. In spite
of Ills daily hikes, the Governor is
“getting fleshier." Therefore, the Gov
ernor has made this conclusion:
Hard work and long hours of labor
are NOT weight reducers.
In other words, If you want to get
fat, work hard.
Since he flrvt took office, Governor
Foss has gained eleven pounds. From
205 pounds he has attained an avol-
dupois of 216.
Governor Foss says that hard work
and long hours do not cause a person
to become run down—If the work
agrees with the person performing It.
Hard Luck Besets Wilson Forgets‘Hot
Cyclist-Attorney Shot’ From Lynch
It Takes Eighteen Hours for John R.
Cooper to Cover Twenty-eight-
Mile Journey.
MACON, GA., April 18.—Attorney
John R. Cooper’s trip by bicycle to
Perry this week will be remembered
by him ns one of the most- interesting
experiences of his life.
Mr. Cooper still believes in the bi
cycle, and he mounted his wheel to
ride to Perry, where he had several
cases to try In court. Leaving here
at 2 o’clock, he proceeded ten miles
when a tire was punctured. Falling
to make the repair by sundown, he
walked two miles, with the bicycle, to
a negro’s house. For 25 the darkey
was persuaded to hitch an old mule to
a dilapidated wagon.
Three njiles farther on the road,
the wagon broke down, and it was j
midnight before It was mended. At j
2 o'clock in the morning the mule
walked off tho bridge at Massey’s
Mill into the creek, dragging the
wagon and Its occupants with him.
Rescuing his bicycle, Colonel Coop
er bade the mule, wagon and durkey
farewell and began the last lap of
his journey by walking. For seven
miles he walked, pushing the bicycle.
At 8 o’clock, Just before court con
vened, he arrived In Perry, having re
quired 18 hours to traverse the 28
miles, the distance from Macon.
He returned from Perry to-day—
by train.
