[ Easier Sunday wna a potfoct day , nnd
ky and earth were favorable for the
athorlng of largo audiences at the
linrchcs for the dlnplay of now bonnets ,
or the showing of flower * , for all the do-
alii cbnrnctorlatlo of Easter day.
AT ST. rAXJL'n KMHCOI'AI , CUURCU
icro were of conrao special sstvicos and
f spocif > .l interest. Although Easter hai
I Into yoara become inoro and tnoro gem-
rally observed by other churches , still
10 day la looked upon M one In which
10 Episcopalians have a more than
rdlnary iatcrost. The church was so
rowded that It was almost Impossible to
cat the entire congregation. The dec-
rations word not profuse , but they were
> oautifnl and were very Hstefully ar-
angod. Ono of the noticeable floral dec-
rations was a lyre , as benutlfnl a floral
eslgn as over aopoarod in this city. It
was the tribute of Mrs. Dan McGitmls ,
nd was ordered from an eastern iloriat.
'ho choir gave a very choice .musical
irogrammo and the rector , Rev. T , J.
McKay , preached an eloquent sermon on
'Who shall roll afray the stone ? " Hosid
After the awful tragedy of Frldny , nnd
io placing of the body of Jesus in the
omb , the disciples passed the Jewish
abbath In the depths of despair. The
tst day of the week had been appointed
> y the noble women , Maty Magdalene
tnd the other Mary for the embalming of
ho body. Slow the hours dragged their
weary length along but they faltered nut ,
nd the uotnont the first gray streak of
awn appeared in the east , taking with
licm sweet opicoi for the annolntmont
hey set out for tbo sepulchre of him
hey so passionately loved.
As they hastened through the dim
[ ght of the Easter morning they said tone
no another , "Who shell roll ns away
ho stonu. " Perhaps in the strength of
heir love and devotion for the Master
hey thought they might bo able by their
united efforts to rcinovo the atone thorn-
elves from the mouth of the sepulchre.
But Ei they are wondeiing concerning
hat , they approach tbo garden from
whcnco they could see the three creases
itanding , and drawing near they see
hat the stone has been already removed.
And when they found that the Lord had
risen Indeed can you understand the sud
den rovalation cf faith which these
women rotiaccd their stops ? Faith unto
death unmoved In their unflinching de
votion to the Lord. Mary loved the
Lord much , because much had been for-
; lven her. It Is love , not learning or
itation , that shall secure ns love of
Dhrltt. The only watch-word that will
admit no there will bo lovo. It Is said of
saints of old who spent days and nights
at iho crucifix , that they grow uctvally
like unto the object of their adoration.
And sometimes it is Bald without
question of doubt that the ry marks of
tno DHI'B became evident on taelr hands
and on their foet. It is a principle won
derful In its power. May It not bo true
that of all the things in this universe love
aleno is immortal. Ob , blessed Jesus ,
may wo grow more and moro in thy llkO' '
noes of love , and bo sharers in thy glorl
ous resurrection.
The weeping ones ere eaylng in their
anxiety , "Who shall roll us away tli
stone ? " Why are wo bcin. and whor
are wo going ? are questions of the great
eat moment , and If wo cannot aatlsfaotor
ily answer those and the other queatloas ,
they will sap away the very foundations ,
and take away tbo Inspiration neceesary
for a grand , true existence.
Iho Icai of property , of social position
and InGuenco are all light and easy to be
berne compared with the loss of those wo
lovo. I cannot speak of th's without
touching every single one of you , for
whore is the homo over which the angel
of Death has not spread his dark wingt ?
Where Is the heart that Is not Impressed
with a fond memory of one that has faded
away , no moro to bo beheld on this earth
throughout eternity. How maoy fathers
and mothers who look upon empty
cradle * and 1'aten In vain for the patter
of the darling little feet that they wi'l '
never hear aqain ? How many women
there are In whcne arms have L-.dod their
only conifott , and have nothing left to
love , for so deep is the void in the1' : poor
hearts , and they siy , "Who shall roll
ns away the sttue from the sapulchcr of
our burled hopes and lost lovot ? ' The
Augol of God is near and the he vy atjno
is rolled away.
To yon who are soirowirig th'.a ' Esstor
morning there Is as great jay n there i
was for the apostles when they beheld I
tbut their Lord was risen from the deal.
.For he tells us that wo are immortal in
God. It tolls us the atorms of maphocd
make the peace of old ago , It tolls us
that all tr als are sent us by a lotlng
Father , whoso pniposo wo may not see
now , but shall BOO hereafter. It tells u
that those trialr , nobly boinr , are pro
ductive of the brightest joys , and endows
dews us with that peace of f
God wh'ch paesoth all understanding.
Uy the light of this Eister morning wo
road and understand this sacred love
Wo know why Christ relnsed to put away
tbo cup of bitterness. Oh , ye sorrowing
aonla that grope in darkness and have no
light , will you not let the light of thu
castor morning stream into the light ol
your souls ? Let Christmas morning dr
for the joyous , bat Itt those who are ser
rowfnl cling to this morning of Easter.
"Then souowiiig soul that long has kept ,
Thy wraty watch with tin ,
Open wide thy doors to-day
And lot God's sunlight In ,
"Pa lad no moro , lift up thine eye.
The Lord ia risen , lie reigns on high.
The heavy atcne IB rolled away ,
The Lord is risen , 'tis Easter day. "

At about 8 o'clock yesterday mornln
about thirty of the bcya ( f St. Joseph
academy who belong to the todallt
a clety marched over to the church wll
c their new binner tnd weiring allvi
medals. Special cervices were hold i
that hour nnd the sacrament adminis
tered to them.
THE CONOHKOATIONAL UUURCIt
was beautifully decorated yesterday and
a Very largo congregation was In attend-
nnco. Each aldo of the pulpit there was
n largo pyramid of potted plant * , sur
mounted by callaa , whllo the communion
table in front was covered _ with cut
flower * , some In a llttlo pyramid , others
In little baskets Above tbo pulpit was
a hanging basket of vines and ferns ,
and just above this a pure whlto dove.
Other plants and flowers were tajte-
fnlly arranged on stands and In groups ,
the whole presenting a voiy attractive
appearance.
The music was excellent. The newly
organized choir is ono of power and
awoetncsF , their voices blending almost
perfectly. The choir consists of Prof.
McDermld , Mr. Westcott , Miss Leonard
and Mies Christy , with Miss Fitch at the
organ , Besides the hymns , in which the
congregation joined , Alias Fitch gave a
very fine overture on the organ , an excellent -
collont Easter anthem was sung by. the
choir , and Mr. Wostcott , who has as pure
and awoot a tenor voice as there la in the
city , aan ? a solo as an offertory.
The prutor , Rev. Q. W. Orofls , pr < ash
ed a very fine sermon * i iho "Bosurroo-
tlonof Christ , " closing it with the follow
ing versos from his own pen :
When Christ waa Intel within the tombs ,
Fond hopea were burled there
Like flowers , nweot in nil their bloom ,
Cut down in frosty air.
"Oh , wo hnd hope , " his followers aaid ,
"That tiuly tnls was Ho ,
Who out of bondao should Imvo led
And set our people free.
"But now within the tomb ho Bleeps
Among the silent dead ,
While nature in her sorrow weeps
Andbowa In grief her head.
' 'O , alow of heart not to believe
The words of prophets old ,
That Christ must sutler to relieve
The world from grief untoldl"
Whoso voice thus spcaH to those < ud hearts
In tones of love divine ,
While sorrow like a life departs ?
Dear Jesus , it is thine !
Tlio rocky tomb hai plven up
The precious dint therein ;
Ap/ain shines forth the star of hope
Bright o'er a world of sin.
Oh , death , whcro is thy vonomed eting ;
Thy victory , O grave ?
Now may our tongues exultant sing ,
Fur Christ has power to cave ;
Tho' m the travo wo nil must ho
And eleep beneath the sod ,
Our souls immortal racnot dlo
But rlso unto their God ,
The Sunday school hold n special Eeiter
service alee , consisting of music and
reading and responses of appropv'ato
A few weeks ngo a bright-
hoBftcd lady In the church offered a silver
modal to cvoiy boy or girl who learned to
repeat the Apostles creed , the Lori's
prayer and the ( en commandment i , perfectly
foctly , before Easter , Yesterday the
names of those who had thus won moials
wore road. The list was a long ono.
Ono of the number , lltt'o ' Etta Otis ,
stcod up before the whole school and re
peated the Apostle's creed , not only get
ting every word just light , bnt giving
much expression to It , quite a feat for so
little a girl under such embarvr.T'rjg ' nnd
bewildering circumstanced.

Wc'i made to bloom like a bower. Thera
wai built R Krijo platfoim back of the
pulpit , there biipg Miroo tiers , to DM to be
used for seating the cHldrou in the eve
ning oxerc'tce. At the mouing service
this ahgo wei covered with potted plrats
and blooming flowers , very nicely ar
ranged. On the wall above appeared in
green a large heart , on ono eido of wbicl
was A I ergo crosi , and on the ether side
an equally largo crona , all these emblems
beln worked in green. On one of the
sldo walls appeared an anchor , a hear
and a star , also in green. On the oppo
site wall , extending almost the entire
length of the church , In large htteia , ap
peared the words : "The Stone Was
Rolled Away. " Rav , Dr. McCreny
preached an aprroprlato sermon , anc
poclnl mneio was provided.
The Sunday school hid an Enter sor-

AT OTHER PLACES.
The seivicos at other churches wore
not to noticeable. The PreBbytntian
church not being furiMahod no attempt
was made to decorate It. The pastor
prosched on "Tho R'son ' Lord , " and tjio
acruccs wore made eomowhat boirinp ; up
on the day.
At the Baptist church there we 3 a
communion service , the firjt pines the
reorganization of the eoclety. Rav. Dr.
Cooley , of Chicago , preached on the sub
joot of "God's Love , " his text being
"God so loved the world that ho gavohia
only begotten Son. " Lost night a moot
ing was held for the purpose of calling
upon Rev. Dr , Cooley to become the pester -
tor of the church , a cll Trhlch ho will
doubtless ncjopt. Ho Is a man of
ilpo experience and scholarship , has moro
then ordinary pulpit power nnd wi'l '
doubtless build up the church which
under the former pastorate has mot with
such reverses
At tlio Institution for the deaf and

vloos , rectal iona appropriate to Easter
were filven by the Misses Olllo Tracey
and Nolllo Bluey.

Snatching Snonks ,
th As Constable Wetley was leisure !
rer strolling along Main street on Saturds
at evening on his way home he noticed t\\
suspicions characters In front of him , one
of whom had a hrgo tutkty In his hand.
Thinking they obtained the turkey by
ionic crooked means ho concluded to
"lay low" and await the results.
They stopped at several stores and
tried to dispose of It for twenty-five
cents , and finally , when at Gco. Blax-
slm's , 807 Main street , hid the turkey
under the entrance to the upper part of
his house and wont into Blaxslm'e , whore
ono tried on amt of shoos , while the
other follow slipped a pair of ladles' com
mon shoos , valued at about $1.00 , Into
his pocket , and was just walking out of
the door whim Constable Woiloy nabbed
him. Just ni Wesley laid hands on the
crook ho throw the shoos back Into the
store on the floor. Wesley gave him In
charge of two men while ho looked after
the ono trying on the shoos inside of the
store , and after several skirmishes ,
In which they attempted to got away ,
with the assistance of a police whlalto
and Officer Towns ono was landed In the
city iall and the other taken by Wesley
before Fralnoy , who sent his man to the
county jail.
Mr. Wesley learned afterward that the
turkey had been stolen from J. II. Sny-
der. The men were strangers in town
and by their appearance , if It does not
deceive , are tramps.
