VOLUNTEER PRISONER IN DRUG STORE OUSTED Employe Guarding Fixtures | Against Auction Eats Up Crackers While Waiting. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, September 24 —The vol- wniary imprisonment of Anthony Car- lerine, employe of an ice cream com- pany, 'in an Oak Park drug store, ended today when police custed him. Since Wednesday he had been locked 4n the building by his own request.| Legal cntanglements were to blame. The druggist shut up shop after the owner of the building obtained a rent Judgment against him and the court ordered an auction to satisfy the judg- ment. Carlerine’s ccmpany claimed it had a mortgage on fixtures in the store and sent him to guird them to prevent their sale scheculed at the auc- tion October 3. When the constable padlocked the | place Wednesday to prevent the drug- gist from removing fixtures, Carlerine refused to leave, so he was locked in. His imprisonment went well until he had caten all the crackers and cookies in the place and was down to chewing gum before his friends thought of his plight and brought him food. ~ SPECIAL NOTICES, SYTTNESSES OF THE Weshingion Cathedral ir cele September 29, 1907.

Commit- tes meetings are in full swing, for there is_plenty of organization behind the apparently care-free gaieties of crarity balls and musical soirees. Although there is no fixed event to mark the opening of the “littlé sea- son,” it probably will date unofficially from Wednesday, when Lady Samuel, wife of the home secretary, lends her drawing room for a display of folk dancing of all nations and a recital of folk songs by artists of many nationalities. Musical Evenings. Musical evenings scem likely to loom large in the social diary during the next few months. In addition to the public concerts to be given by the B. B. C. Symphony - Orchestra under Odrian Boult; the New London Philharmonic Orchestra, cted by Sir_Thomas Beecham, and the London Symphony Orchestra, with Sir Hamilton Harty as conductor, trere will be a series of chamber concerts and recitals for which well known people are lending their drawing rooms. Among the big charity balls will be the Halloween ball October 31, at which many old lovers' customs will be re- vived. On this occasion girls once again will learn who lovers are b: throwing apple-peel over the left shoul- der and seeing what initial it makes, and young men will find out the year they ‘are to marry by being led blind- fold to several lighted candles—the one they blo wout deciding their marital future.

BY JAMES WALDO FAWCETT. The foundation stone of Washington Cathedral was lald a quarter century ago next Thursday. Friends of the sacred enterprise recall the occasion with pride and affection. It marked the actual beginning of construction work on Mount St. Alban. Faded newspaper files contain the story. Saturday, September 28, 1907, was a day of heavy rain. Sunday morn- ing, the feast of St. Michael and All Angels, brought a threat of renewed downpour. Gray clouds hung low upon the horizon. Arrangements had been made to accommodate a congregation of 10,000 people on Mount St. Alban, but it seemed likely that the throng would be kept away by the unpleasant weather. It was comparatively late be- fore there was any indication that the clouds would lift. Meanwhile, from every section of the city and from towns in Maryland and Virginia the more courageous members of the invited mul- titude started for the scene of the cere- mony. By 10 o'clock the sun had mani- fested a disposition to favor the people; and hundreds of pilgrims to the hillside became thousands. By carriage, trolley car and afoot they came. At 11 o'clock the newly purchased close was crowded. At noon it seemed tnat the population of the entire city had arrived. Over- head clouds and the sun struggled for the mastery cf the day. The procession of the clergy came in sight from behind St. Alban’s Church. As it advanced President Theodore Roosevelt was -es- corted to a seat on the main platform. Through *he trees, marching in lines of four, came the white-robed boys of the enlarged choir. They were followed by the Marine Band and by the men of the choir. Then came the visiting clergy and the clergy of the diocese, young men and old. The Cathedral Council and the Cathedral Chapter were next in order, and the bishops of the church last. Rev. Dr. Henry Yates Satterlee, first Bishop of Washington, was at the end of the line. As the service began a few drops of rain fell, but the congregation did not stir. Rev. Dr. Randolph H. McKim pronounced a call to the peogle. begin- ning, “We are gathered together in the name and presence of Almighty God to begin a new sowing for the Master and for man.” The Lord's Prayer was then repeated by the entire assemblage, end Rev. Dr. W. H. Huntingdon of New York read the collect. The choir and congregation sang “All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name.” Liberia Bishop Leads Creed. The lesson was St. John, 1.1-15. It was read by Right Rev. Enos Nuttall, Archbishop of the West Indies. “Te Deum of Laudamus” was sung, and Right Rev. S. D. Ferguson, Bishop of Liberia, led in the repetition of the Creed. Right Rev. W. C. Doane, Bishop of Albany, read the suppiications. Bishop Satterlee, escorted by the offi- cers of the Potomac Loage, F. A. A. M approached the stone as it hung sus- pended by a emall derrick. The mortar was spread, tie trowel used for the purpose being that which George Wash- ington c¢mployed at the Jaying of the cornerstone of the Capitol, September 18, 1793. The bishop read St. Mathew, 1.18-25; St. Luke, ii.1-22; tne Epistle of St. Paul to the Philipians, 1i.5-12, and the Epistle of St. Ignatius of Antioch to the Ephesians, xviii.2 and xix.1. As the stone, brougnt from the Jordan Ford where the Savior is tradi- tionally supposed to have been bap- tized, was slowly lowered the sun broke free from the veil of cloucs and “seemed to smile.” His face uplifted to the radiance, the bishop said: “I do pro- nounce duly and truly iald this Foun: dation Stone of Waghington Cathedral He spoke of the j®ojected church as being dedicated as “a house of prayer for all people.” As he returned to his place on the platform tne choir sang “Gloria in Excelsis.” Bishop Satterlee then introduced Mr. Roosevelt, and the President tribute to the high and liberal ideals of Christian fellowship in_evil times and good. He closed with the words: “Do the work of the Lord DeSt‘Dy doing His work for the people pest.’ Right Rev. Arthur Foley Winning- ton-Ingram, Bishop of London, ad- dressed the congregation. He brought the greeting of the Church of England and wished the work Godspeed. Right Rev. R. A. Gibson, Bishop of virginia, read the offertory and the choir sang. The*final prayer was read by Right Rev. William Paret, Bishop of Maryland. and the benediction was pronounced by Right Rev, D. S. Tuttle, Bishop of Missouri. The choir and clergy returned to St. Alban’s Church as it had come. Long after the services were over. hundreds of people remained on the hiliside where today approximately one-third of the great design has been completed. While the laying of the foundation! stone marked the beginning of actual construction at the Cathedral, it marked the close of a long period of prepara- tion. A church for national purposes had been included in Maj. L'Enfant’s origi- nal plans for the Capital. The site in- tended was that now occupled by the Patent Office. Changes in L'Enfant’s arrangements_eliminated the cathedral suggestion. But the idea did not die. From time to time it was revived and discussed among churchmen who felt that a great church edifice was needed Among these was Joseph Nourse, secretary and friend of George Washington and first Registrar of the Treasury. Nourse purchased Al- ban Hill from the estate of Gen. Uriah Forrest, and it is said that he was ac- customed to pray that “at some future date God would build & church on the ite.” His granddaughter Phoebe left S by will 40 gold dollars “for a free church on Mount Alban.” St. Alban’s parish church was built in 1855.

D. H. Burnham an les H. McKim of the Park Commission, Bernard R. Green, Prof. Charles Herbert Moore of Harvard, and Sir C.

The first master builder of the Ca- thedral, the greatly beloved Bishop Sat- terlee, died February 22, 1908. The Cathedral enterprise was carried on by Right Rev.

JEWISH NEW YEAR FESTIVAL FRIDAY Saturday Will Usher in Year 5693—Services Are Announced. At sunset Friday orthodox Jewry of Washington and the world will hold the first solemn services ushering in the festival of the New Year. The next | day, the Sabbath, marks the beginning of the year 5693. The services here Friday night will 1 be brief, but beginning Saturday morn- mng the ancient ceremonials of Israel will be performed from 6:30 o'clock until well in the afternoon. A.nu!her‘v service will take place at sundown and the same schedule will be repeated Sunday. The celebration of the Rosh Hashanah, a8 the new year is called, differs slightly in the reformed church, which omits the Sunday services. Reformed con- gregations begin their night services at 8 o'clock and their morning celebra- | tions at 10:30 o'clock. Season of Optimism. The festival is distinguished by the | blowing of the thofar, or ram’s horn. | Although marked with solemnity and | sacred observances, it is of a joyous and optimistic character. On Rosh Hashanah the worshipers | call to mind the misdeeds of the past year with a view to consecrating them- selves to a nobler life during the year to come. The religious service empha- sizes that the door to improvement and betterment is constantly open. The New Year is the beginning of the most sacred of Jewish holiday sea- | sons. It is the first of the 10 days of | penitence, culminating in the day of atonement, the holiest day in the Jew- ish calendar. | A few days after the day of atone-! ment the feast of Sukkoth, or tab- ernacles, is celebrated during a perxod‘ of eight days in commemoration of the ancient Palestinian harvest festival and of the wandering of the Israelites through the wilderness. Rosh Hashanah is the traditional| day for the exchange of greetings and | good wishes and for the pardoning of | grievances between individuals. Decorations of White. ‘The houses of worship and the rabbis will be adorned in white to symbolize | forgiveness of sins and reconciliation. | Ir: the orthodox synagogues the morn- | ing rituals of Shacharith are followed | by the reading of appropriate portions | of the holy scrolls, the blowing of the | shofar on Sunday and a sermon. Then comes_the Mussaf, or additional serv- ice. For this service those congrega- tions not having cantors and choirs usually hire them, since music plays an important part in the ritual. The blowing of the shofar takes place Saturday morning in reformed congre- gations. WAREHOUSE IS ASSIGNED’ Lieut. Col. U. S.

A carnival and dance will take place on Constitution avenue, with mu- sic provided by a 30-piece orchestra, jand amplified through a public-ad- dress system. Causes of Accidents. The survey found that the causes of accidents are: FPirst, highways in- edequate for modern traffic, lacking in safeguards or poorly equipped with sig- nals and lights; second, cars of high power and speed, faulty brakes and headlights or in poor mechanical con- dition;” third, drivers untrained, uncon- trolled, indifferent to safety and heed- less of the rights of others. The result was the loss of 33,000 lives las:l y;;r, xx:’]‘urxe's to 1,000,000 persons an e direct economic I 1 $1.,250,000,000. T The remedies, peints out, are: Pirst, engineering, as to streets, highways and cars built to safety standards, a traffic survey of every community and signals, signs and | regulations based on engineering rather than guesswork; second. education of | new drivers, dangerous drivers, pedes- | trians, children, traffic police, commtr-\ cial drivers and education through com- | munity organization; third, enforcement through uniform codes, model ordi- nances, and through experienced State and city pol:_. backed by public opinion, and through the traffic courts. These remedies cannot be eected, it was_emphasized, without the co-oper- | ation of the public as a whole. | Headquarters Established. Headquarters for the congress will be Wardman Park and Shoreha Hotels. Another feature of the cor ference will be a display of 2lmost every conceivable type of equipment for the| prevention of accidents in street, fac- tory and home. ‘The apparatus will be display in the Exhibition Hall at Wardman Park dur- ing the convention, with manufacturers’ representatives on hand to explain the safety devices to delegates seeking tech- nical information for special problem: The commercial exhibits will be dis- played alongside of apparatus developed in the interest of safety by the Navy, the Bureau of Mines and the American Red Cross.
