nitOADWAT METHODIST.
Broadway Methodist church was crowded
to the doors with an attentive and interested
congregation. The auditorium was beauti
fully , decorated. The altar wns n mass of
Dowers , both potted nnd cut , and above the
arch was this motto in evergreen : "Now is
Christ Hiscn From the Dead , " The effect of
the whole wns most pleasing. The sermon *
was by the pastor , Hcv. W. II. W. Hccs ,
from the text , " 1 am Ho that livcth and was
dead , nnd 1 am alive forevcrnioro , and have
the Uoys of hell and death , " and from it
valuable and practical lessons wcro drawn.
The world ordinarily pays little heed to the
doctrine of the resurrection of the dead.
The occurrence of the Easter season and the
hour of death are occasions which bring it
forcibly to the mind. The thoughts that ap
pertain in this connection are woven into the
greatest events of life. Our faith is rested
on well authenticated facts. The "I nm" and
"Jehovah" of the old testament are the
Christ of the now testament , The life of
Christ Is n continuous whole into which
death came by His consent that He might bo
brought Into closer sympathy with
manliind. The thought of the text
is that wo nro . to comprehend ,
not a dead , but n living Christ. The need of
the world is , rest. H can bo secured in
Christ alone.
The chief observance and celebration of
the day was In the evening service , which
was especially prepared for the Sunday
schools of this denomination by the Kev. W.
T. Smith. The following excellent pro
gramme wns rendered :
Easter Anthem Choir.
Song By the School.
The Apostles Creed For All.
Prayer By the Pastor.
Hcsponsivc Mending Led by Mr. Cokcr.
Introductory Address Clyde Lyons.

Heading "Easter Sabbath as Children's
Missionary Day , " W. 13. Paulson.
Address By Rev. W. H. W. Kecs.
Kesponsivo Service Led by Mr. Tulleys.
The benediction closed.
Every portion of the above was carefully
prepared and excellently rendered. The
different parts were so conceived and ren
dered that the grand lessons of the day wore
most eloquently told.
ST. I'KTCU'S CATHOLIC.
The services at St. Peter's Catholic church
were conducted by the Kov. Father Adolph
Wcsselling. These were opened by the
children of the Sunday school at 8 o'clock a.
in. The usual Sunday school exercises , hold
at 2 p. in. , were combined in the morning
choral service. At 10:90 : the pastor preached
from the text : "If Christ he not risen our
faith is vain. " The fact of the resurrection
of Christ was first established. Then he de
veloped the following points : It is the des
tiny of man to die. No ono merely human
who has died has ever returned to this life.
Wo may rejoice that at least one , the God-
man , has died and rose asain "to live for
ever" and die no more. Ho exhibited the
points wherein the life of Christ and the life
of the Christian arc alike. As Christ suf-
fcreu on Good Friday , the death of the cross ,
so must our passions and sinsho nailed to the
cross , that in obedience to divine commands
our salvation may bo secured. The resurrec
tion of Christ gives us assurance of our res
urrection. Those who nro separated on
earth will bo reunited above , where the seal
of immortality shall be afllxod upon the souls
of the saved , but those who do wickedly shall
bo resurrected to judgment.
The music was specially prepared for the
occasion and well rendered. Floral decora
tions about the altar were profuse and beau
tiful.
ST. FIHNCIS XAVinitS.
Easter day was appropriately observed at
St. Francis Xaviers1 church. The usual ser
vices were somewhat elaborated and appro
priate music rendered. The 0 and 8 o'clock a.m.
masses were said by Father McMcnomy and
at half past 10 high mast was said by Father
Haley , the assistant parish priest , The ser
mon by Father Haley was in keeping with
the occasion. Tno music was rendered by
a chorus choir of twelve voices , conducted
by Mrs. O'Neal at the organ. Lambillattcs
Paschal mass in D was finely rendered. The
solos by Mrs. O'Neal , Mrs. Darrow and Mr.
Eugene Inglcsby were well sung , The con
tribution lor the benefit of the parish priest
amounted to ? 275. The usual exercises of
the day followed.
TIIU CONOIIEOATIOKAI. CHURCH.
The Congregational church was lllled nt
each of the services yesterday. The interior
of the church was beautified by floral decora
tions. The pulpit appeared in the center of a
summery bower. There were stands of
potted plants , vines and ferns , arranged very
pleasingly , and n largo numberof cutllowcrs.
Easter lilies and callas were in abundance.
There wcro three white doves suspended over
the pulpit platform , the center ono in n wreath
of smilax. On each side of the church a
beautiful banner. These were of red , with
borderings and letterings of silver. Ono was
in the form of a Greek cross , and bore the
words , "Tho Lord in Kisen. " On the other
was "Christ , the Prince of Peace. " These
adornments were the work of Mr , F. F. Hayden -
den , who showed much taste and nklll in
them.
The musical features of the services wcro
especially lino. The quartette , which con
stitutes the choir , is ono of the best in the
west. It consists of Mrs. Wadsworth , Mrs ,
Evans , Mr. Wescott and Mr , MeDormid. Mr.
Do Normandlo , the organist , was
ill yesterday and unnblo to play ,
which was n sore disappointment , but
fortunately Mrs , Hruco Howe was secured
as u substitute. The anthems and hymns
wcro grandly rendered , Mrs. Wadsworth
and Mrs , Evans gnvo solos and duets charm
ingly , although Mrs. Wadsworth was so unfortunate -
fortunate us to bo suffering from so severe
a cold that she could not do herself justice ,
Mr. Wostrott gave a very pleasing tenor solo
hist evening. The service last evening was
in the nature of a sacred concert , and was
thoroughly enjoyable. liesldes the musical
numbers there were recitations by Miss
Laura Smith nnd by some of the littla girls.
The Sunday school service yesterday was
a unique and pleasing one , The chief fcaturo
was the prcbcntation of cmhlems to which
Christ 1ms been likened. Ono , for instance ,
was bread , illustrative of such passages as
"I am the bread of life. " Each class had
some emblem , and each presented it , with
appropriate quotations of scripture , recita
tions , or songs , As ono after another of
thebo emblems was presented they wcro
placed upon a cross , und completed the pleas
ing decorations of the church ,
Littla Hello Snyder and Mnda Kivkland
gave n very pleasant duet ; Carrie Schoentgen
and Etta Otis gave recitations which wcro
very creditable.
Among the emblems thus brought out wcro
the viuc , brunch , lily of the valley , star ,
horn , brer.d , roclr , plant , grabs , wood , rose ,
dove , a null , crown , water , a lifiht , u child ,
etc.
etc.Most of the credit for the arrangement of
the Sunday school exi'icifccs was diu > to Miss
Ida \VuUuce , in addition to tUo eiforts of tlio
aupcrintcndent , Arthur Cov.'le.
The morning sermon by the pastor , Iov.
G.Y. . Crofts , was from the text , "Then
wcro Ids disciples ! " ' * , whea thiy iuw the

At the top of the suneraltcr was a beautiful
cross , the offering of Mrs. F. T. Webb , wife
of the former rector. The elegantly carved
pulpit , the memorial of Hobert I'creival , was
elaborately deeor.Ucd with smilax , roses and
Easter lilies , and in front of it was u pcnd ; , t
wreath , placed there by Mrs. Hv . .Toslyn , In
nicinorintn of "Haby.1 The- baptismal font

brightly colored flowers. In front of the
lecturn was a Beautiful white t-rosa. made
largely of primroses , the gift of L. A.
Caspar , whose skill anil taslo as a llorls waj
manifest in other fcatUi63 of th6 beautiful
decorations. Mrs Mackey , wife of the
rector , deserves special recognition for the
time , thought nnd strength whichsho devoted
to the work of decorating the church , and
also for the care she took in preserving the
flowers , no easy task , as they required con
stant attention to keep them fresh , the
church being necessarily warm.
The Stewart memorial window wns
beautifully decorated. At Its base
wns n bank of smilax and evergreens , with
callus and Easter lllirs. The callas were the
largest and finest ever seen hero. They were
brought from Massachusetts , and wcro won
derful In sio and beauty.
The McKuno memorial window was also
pleasingly adorned , smilax being entwined
about it and caught up with cut llowers , the
whole presenting a very pleasing effect.
The services were appropriate to the day.
Special preparation was made for the musical
part by Mr. Gratian , the excellent organist ,
Mrs. Judd , the soprano , Mr. Trcynor and
others , with the boys' choir.
In connection with the morning service
Hev. Mr. Mackey preached an excellent ser
mon , his text being Joshua , 111-11 : "Hehold.
the ark of the covenant of the Lord of nil
the earth passcth over before you into Jor
dan. "
In the afternoon the Sunday school mot.
Tlio most interesting fcaturo of this gather
ing was tno opening of the mite boxes , in
which the little folks had been gathering up
their offerings. The total amount of the
offerings was over $ lf > 0 , which will bo placed
in the organ fund. There were three prizes
offered to those who showed the greatest
work in Lent , indicated by the amount of the
offerings. Dull Smith was awarded the first ,
George Gavin the second and Odin Mackoy
the third.
In the evening there was an Enstcr choral
service , in which some very choice musio was
grandly rcndeied.
THE MUST 1U11T1ST CHUllCH.
The floral decorations at the H.iptist church
consisted largely of potted plants in full
bloom , with which the entire front p.ir of the
church , as well as the immediate vicinity of
the altar , wcro completely filled. The effect
of such n wealth of richness and fraeranco
could bo little else than beautiful. At the
morning sen-ice Kov. Dr. Coolcy discoursed
on "Tho Power of Kesurrcction. " The at
tendance was very large , and the Impressive
sermon of the pastor was listened to with the
closest attention. In the evening the chil
dren of the Sunday school gave a lluely ren
dered Easter concert.
rilRSIIYTEHIAN CIIU11CII.
At the Presbyterian church the floral dis
play was very beautiful. Cut flowers in rich
profusencss surrounded the nltar , and to
gether with the potted plants , produced a
most pleasing effect. Hev. Dr. Ewing , pro
fessor of theology nt the theological semi
nary at Saharanpur , India , preached in the
morning to a very largo congregation , and
gave many interesting facts in regard to the
work being done in that far-off country. Dr.
Ewing is travelling now in the interest of
that work. In the afternoon Mrs. Ewing
gave an address on the customs , dress and
general characteristics of the East Indians ,
in the evening Dr. Phclps , the pastor ,
in-cached on "Easter and Its Associations. "

H. D. Knight , a painter and paperhanger ,
was stopped as ho was passing up Sixteenth
avenue to the office of the Consolidated Tank
Line company , where he had some work to
do , on Saturday afternoon by n Pinkcrton
official in the employ of the Chicago. Uur-
lington & Quincy railroad company. The
officer insisted that Knight should not cross
the "Q" yards , although the street runs di
rectly through it. Knight called attention to
his papcrboard and tools to convince the of-
llcer tliat he wns not a striker , but the other
would not listen to arguments , and finally
Knight tapped him on the nose nnd "sent
him to grass. " Knight was quickly hurried
away by two engineers who saw the occur
rence to their headiiuarteis to prevent his ar
rest. The only injury ho sustained was n
bruised hand and strained wrist. The offi
cer's injuries consisted of a disfigured coun
tenance nnd severely offended dignity , but
time will heal both.

A Queer Question.
The last case called in the United States
court Saturday afternoon was that of Craw
ford , charged with embezzling u registered
letter which came into his possession as ono
of the postal clerks at the transfer. After
the Jury was impanelled nnd the trial was
about to proceed , it was discovered that ono
of the jury hud served on the grand jury
which indited Crawford , and was therefore
deemed unqualified to servo on the Jury to
try him. The prosecution wanted the jury
discharged and a now Jury impanelled , but
the defense claimed that this would bo Illeg
al , as it would place Crawford a second time
in Jeopardy. Judge Love concluded to con
tinue the case until the next term , nnd give
1 1 in a for pleadings and arguments on the
points involved by this complication.

Boston Herald : What tv niino of
wealth tlio Boll tok'phono company has
been for the legal profession ! "it is
generally xindorstood that their prin
cipal counsel , Mr. Storrow , of this city ,
nnd Mr. Dickinson , of Now "York , who
probably rank first among the patent
attorneys of this country , have been
paid $ -50,000 a year for their bcrviccs.
Indeed , Mr. Dickinson is said to have
received that amount for his argument
for the Bell company before the United
States supreme court. lion. Koscoc
Conkling and Hon. Joseph E. Mc
Donald are also said to have received
very liberal retainers annually. Tliero
has boon , besides , a Inrgo number of
special counsel retained in tlio various
legal complications in which tlio com
pany has been involved , &o that alto
gether the legal expenses ha c
amounted frequently to & 250.000 a yosir
an amount equal to the entire operat
ing expenses of tlio parent company.
Then , of course , the various companies
which have been contetting the Boll
claim to priority have drawn heavily
upon the services of the legal profession ,
with ample retainers. Whether the
decision of the supreme court in favor
of the Uoll company will put an end to
law suits for a while remains to he seen.
It would not bo surprising , however , to
see the legal expenses considerably re
duced.
Romance nnd Itcnlity.
New York Journal : It is ncai-ly

V * *
Miss May afterwards married Mr.
William Wright , a good-looking hey of
good family without a sou and with no
faculty for making ono. .Then followed
a wretched period of poverty and de
pendency , and at last Mrs. Wright re
turned with her children to her father's
house in Washington , where feho has
been living so ciuietly that people here
had almost forgotten her existence un
til she came to town a few days ago
on a visit.
She is the most beautiful woman in
New York to-dayr Her cares , sorrows
and disappointtnbnt have simply sub
dued a beauty that at one time threat
ened to become too exuberant. She
has been received with open arms and
honored and feted like one restored
from the grave. Her husband lives in
Florida , where Mrs. Wright's friends
hope he will remrtin.
