EASTER TIDE.
Beautiful and Appropriate Exer
cises of The Day.
We have once more experienced with
grateful hearts the glory of the Easter
festival, the festival of the risen Christ.
The joyous triumphs of I’alm Sunday,
the sacred hours of holy week, have fin
ally merged into the fragrance and the
flowers, the music and the message, the
hope and the joy of Easter.
Nothwithstanding the fact that the
weather was somewhat raw the exercises
of the several churches were well attend
ed—perhaps the day has never been
more generally or more heartily cele
brated—a matter of congratulation and
gratification we take it.
The church buildings were beautifully
decorated for the event; and special
music, vocal and instrumental, was ren
dered. In fact everything was done to
heighten and accentuate the day. At
the
FIRST BAPTIST
church, Elder McBride delivered an elo
quent and thoughtful sermon in the
morning on "The Resurrection of Christ
the Eoundation of the Christian Relig
ion.” The uncomfortable condition of
the house made the evening service im
possible—which was generally regretted,
as all present in the morning were anx
ious to hear the evening topic, "The
Resurrection of Christ the Disappoint
ment and Overthrow of his Enemies.”
There was also special music for the oc
casion.
AT THE METHODIST CHURCH.
Tile Epworth league opened its regular
service at 6:30, Miss Montie Tulleys,
teacher. Subject: "Esther, or Risking
all for God."
Miss Tulleys read an interesting paper
telling the story of the Jewish people,
during their captivity. Special music
had been prepared for the occasion,from
the Cantata of Esther,commencing with
Mordecai’s solo, where he begs the beau
tiful queen to go unto the king, in be
half ol her people.
The solos of the king, queen Esther,
Mordecai, Haman and his wife Zerish,
were rendered in an acceptable manner.
The exercises closed with the quartet:
"Do I Wake, or am I Dreaming?”
The Sunday school choir then took its
place, and the missionary programme,
prepared for Easter by the Sunday
school, was given. The music was good
and the children came promptly for
ward with their exercises, which were
instructive and entertaining.
The offering was liberal, and satisfied
those who had the work in charge. The
church was tastefully decorated, and in
spite of the cold, many a flower bright
ened the scene, with its beauty and fra
grance.
AT THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
The Episcopal services in Masonic hall,
Easter day, were qnite elaborate, con
sidering the circumstances—hall effects
never being fully what Easter calls for.
The rostrum at the west end was com
pletely banked with flowers, and a long
and artistic musical programme carried
out:
Hymn. Christ, our Lord is.
.Risen Today.
Chant . Christ, our Passover is Sac
rificed for Us . Gregorian.
Te Deum . Jackson.
Julilate Brown.
Hymn O, Could I Speak His Match
. . .less Praise.
Sermon.Rev. Durant.
Hymn The Strife is O’er, the . . .
. Battle Won.
Anthem—He is Risen. Clare.
The choir was composed of Miss Ell
lington Wilson, soprano; Miss Maud
Burgess, soprano; J. S. LeHew, tenor;
Orlo LeHew, bass; Mrs. A. J. Clute, alto;
Rev. Frank Durant, baritone; Miss Clara
LeHew, organist.
first congregational.
The usual morning services were held,
Rev. Preston preaching on "The Risen
Life” to a good audience of interested
hearers.
But the special exercises of the day
were held in the evening, and the edi
fice was crowded on this occasion. The
following meritorious and interesting
programme was rendered:

The floral and other decorations were
upon an elaborate and beautiful scale—
perhaps never excelled in the city for
taste fill ness and propriety—and the ef
fect was quite charming indeed.
There are a few people in McCook like
this:
"There is a man in our town
Who has the weather pat;
When the blizzard flag he sees afloat
lie hunts his wide straw hat.”
And then again its different.
A Distinct Success.
The postponed Christian Endeavor
concert held in the Lutheran church,
Tuesday evening, was quite well attend
ed and greatly enjoyed. Some features
of the program were of universal merit
and were warmly enchored—Mr. John
son particularly receiving much a p
plt sc. The entire program showed
careful and thorough preparation. The
promoters of the concert are subjects for
congratulation upon its excellence and
success.
They had a pleasant social dance at
the home of Ben Martz in west McCook,
Wednesday evening.

The parents and brothers of Ira Casey’,

If Pete happens to know of it you will

The difference between James Elwood
and James McAdams was arbitrated by
Larry Rooney and Ed.Harmon,Monday.
The case involved settlement for some
ditch fluming built by Elwood for Mc
Adams. *.
With Republicans and Democrats on
both Republican and Citizens tickets it
seems to The Tribune that there is
small room for any such rancorous part
isan stuff as characterized the official
organ, last week. Very small.
Every time a cesspool is sunk in the
more crowded business portion of our
city, the pressing necessity of an early
provision of sewerage is accentuated. It
cannot long be deferred, if the increase
in water closets, bath tubs, etc., contin
ues.

Messrs. Allen and Vincent, first of the

There were seven carloads in all.
Wednesday, an Arabian peddler was
brought before Police Judge Berry and
the Judge elevated his voice high enough
to fine the erring Knight $5.00 and costs

of four males and one female that has
been peddling trinkets and notions in
the city, this week.
The fly has has arrived. He isn't wel

and blunt in stating it. He sings the
same exasperating song; he is as impu
dent as of yore; his researches are as im
pertinently energetic and exacting, and
his feet as hot as during the sweltering
heat of August. He is the tantalizing
camp follower of Spring’s delightful

An article, which promises to stir

core, appears in the April number of the
Chicago Magazine of current topics, un
der the title of “The case of the Crack
er,” from the pen of the well-known

sees portents of the gravest nature in the
present social and labor status of the
south, conditions which he graphically
traces to their fountain-head in the ins
titution of slavery, and which emanci
pation has intensified instead of amelio
rating. It is owing to this that the wri
ter, who evinces a masterful knowledge
of the subject which he discusses, fore
shadows the gravest consequences to the

RELIGIOUS MATTERS.
Bishop Graves and Rector Durant
have been absent at Trenton, Haigler

assisted Bishop Graves in the marriage
of Miss Lulu Wade and Mr. Amos A.
Elliott, both of the conut} -seat.

How to Vote. Tuesday.
Inasmuch as both the Republican and
the Citizens tickets are pretty evenly
made up of Republicans and of Dem
ocrats The Tribune does not feel justi
fied in making a partizan campaign of
the city election. Furthermore we are
not disposed to foment factionalism with
in party or community. Again the tick
ets are both made up of good citizens who
have the interests of the city at heart,
and in any event our material matters
will not suffer. And it may not be claim
ed that there is any moral issue involved
or principle at stake. Hence The Tri
bune will leave the selection of munici
pal officers to the voters of the city with
out much of advice on its part, of a
frantic nature at least. Just calmly sur
vey the situation. Then go to the polls,
next Tuesday and vote pretty much as
you please. You can’t blunder serious
ly. In the language of the late lamented
Paranoic Pete: “Let reason be your
guide.” “Don’t let prejudice cloud
reason.” “Read before you vote.” Etc.
Easter at St- Patrick's.
There was the usual solemn celebra
tion of the great festival of the church,
Sunday morning, by the Rev. Father
Hickey, with special music by a select
choir. The altar decorations were ex
quisite,and the occasion was one of deep
solemnity and interest. There was a
large attendance of parishioners and vis
itors.
For the first time in a century and a
half Easter Sunday this year fell on “La
dy” day—the anniversary of the annun- j
ciation of the Virgin Mary. This is a
fixed date in the ecclesiastical calendar,
the festival ocurrring always on March
25, while Easter, which is dependent on
the moon the vernal equinox, may come I
as early as March 22 or as late as April
25- _
A Narrow Escape.
Haskill Tirrill of Valley Grange pre
cinct met with an accident, Wednesday ;
afternoon, in which he escaped death by |
a very narrow margin. He was out
duck hunting. While carrying a double
barreled shot gun on his arm—both ham
mers cocked—one of the barrels was dis
charged. The rebound of the gun threw
the weapon back against the foot of little
Robert Hill who was with him, and in
some manner the other barrel was dis
charged, the contents lodging in Tirrill’s
arm. The fact that Tirrill had on quite
a number of garments perhaps alone
saved him: as it was, however, he was
quite painfully injured. Dr. Gage has
the case in charge.
Their Easter Ball.
The Easter ball given by the A. O. U.
W. band, Monday night, in the Temple
hall, was a delightful affair, and was
fairly well attended. It is pronounced
one of the most enjoyable dances of the
reason. Music was provided by their
own orchestra, which is rapidly coming
to the front among our musical organiz
ations. The band also played a few
choice selections on the street before the
ball. Refreshments were served b y
Gray & Marsh. It was altogether quite
a successful and felicitous occasion, all
of which the boys deserved.
Warren Withdraws.
At the instance of his business super
iors, U. J. Warren, close of last week,
formally withdrew from the race for
councilman in the First ward.
To fill this vacancy in the Citizens
ticket, George E. Johnston’s name was
promptly certified up to the city clerk
by petition.
The Citizens ticket, if anything, is
strengthened by this change. Mr. John
ston is one of the largest property hold
ers in the First ward, and one of its
most enterprising and popular citizens.
■ MEETS THE CRIM MESSENGER
While Seeking for Health in Balmy
California.
This community was most painfully
anil profoundly shocked, last Saturday
afternoon, by the announcement of the
sudden death of Albert H. Harnes, treas
urer of Red Willow county, at Flag
staff, Arizona, at two o'clock. The de
ceased was en route to California for the
benefit of his sadly impaired health.
Shortly before noon, Saturday, he was
taken from the train at Flagstaff in a
dying condition, and in a few hours his
spirit had winged its flight to its Maker.
His last hours were made as comfortable
as possible by a Knight Templar at that
point, who prepared the remains for
shipment and accompanied them to Den
ver, where they were met by Sir Knights
Low-man, Ballew, Eskey and Easterday
of St. John Commandery of our city,and
escorted to Indianola for burial.
I he funeral was held m the Congre
gational church at lndianola, Wednes
day afternoon, at 2 o’clock, being at
tended by a large outpouring of people
from all over the county. The funeral
sermon was preached by Rev. Howard S.
Mac.Ayeal of Cambridge, being assisted
by Rev.George Taylor of lndianola. The
remaining services at the church were
then conducted by St. John Command
er}- of our city, of which the deceased
was a member, and who, with many
citizens from McCook, attended the
same in a body—a special car being run
to lndianola, Wednesday, for their ac
commodation. These Masonic services
as well as those at the grave were im
pressive and beautiful, the effect being
heightened by the splendor of knightly
uniform and armor. Besides many mem
bers of the Blue lodge at lndianola, and
of the lodge here marched in the lengthy
procession that followed the remains to
their last resting place.
The floral offerings—that of the cross
and the crown especially—being of ex
quisite beauty.
The several county offices were closed
all day in honor of the deceased treas
urer’s treasured and respected memory.
And quite a number of Indianola’s bus
iness men closed their doors in the after
noon during the services.
Albert H. Barnes was born in Alle
gheny City, Pennsylvania, August 7th,
1861. Died at Flagstaff, Arizona, March
24th, 1S94. Has been a resident of Red
Willow county for the past nine or ten
years. Being deputy county clerk for
three successive terms. Was elected
county treasurer last fall. He was an
efficient and popular official. A ster
ling citizen, and a loving and beloved
son and brother.
The Tribune desires to express for
the people of this county, and for itself,
to the bereaved and disconsolate par
ents, sister and brother of the departed,
the deepest and tenderest sympathy.

and will be at home to their friends after
April first. The Tribune offers its
congratulations.
The unequalled sources of political in
formation claimed by Paranoic Pete,
doubtless consist in his unequalled fa
cilities in bone carrying—in which de
lightful occupation he has practically no
competition. As a fake interviewer and
a violator of personal and private confi
dences he is marvelous and unrivaled.
And as a would-be dictator he is puny
and puerile.
