4 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.” Johnson Takes Trail in Illinois CHICAGO. Sept. 11.—Governor Hi ram Johnson of California left today for a speaking tour throughout Illi nois. He was accompanied by the Pro gressive state leaders, leaving on a spe cial train at s o’clock. The tour will take him through the territory tra versed by Colonel Roosevelt during the primary campaign. The biggest meet ing of the day was scheduled to be held at Streator. 111.

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.” GENUINE CASTORIA ALWAYS Bears the Signature of The Kind You Have Always Bought Exact Copy of Wrapper. i.ii r- " In Use For Over 30 Years. _ THK CKNYAMM COMRANY, N«W YORK C V, THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. 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 and Atzereth, Wednesday, September 25, 8 p. m., and Thursday, September 26, 10 a. m.; Wednesday, October 2, 8 a, m., and Thursday, 10 a. m.

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.
