It Is an essential part of the eduratlon of the American youth of today to know of the life of Washington from his childhood to hla death.

What does the world and the church aay of Jesua Christ? Five years ago I spent a winter In India on missionary observation and there the name, beauty and dignity ot Christ'! char acter took on new sense to me. I found on my voyage out there "the names of the three greatest rulers of the Christian world Victoria, Wllhelm and McKlnley linked In prayer In the same breath of supplica tion that fell at the feet of Christ. "Now what la He? 'Whom say ye that I am?' What is the world's opinion ot Him? All round this globe He Is regarded nre emlnently as the first man In history, not in fable and myth, but aa a man who lived, slept and moved the -same as Lincoln or Caesar. Everywhere we are confronted with the query of What would Jesua do? How would He edit a paper? How would He advise In municipal or atate or na tional administration and government? No one ever charged that Jesus was dls'lnct. ively a Jew. He Is everywhere regarded aa a cltlsen ot me worm, one wno tea the hungry and healed the sick and cast out devils and lepera. When the American donations of corn were given to the starv ing people ot India and they saw the grains were larger than their wheat graina in India they said 'It comes from Jesus in America.' "Much Is said of the mistakes of Moses, but no fault has ever ben found with Christ. His sermon on the mount and His parables are regarded as the classics of the ages. He la regarded by all as a man of beautiful and loving and unique per sonality, and the absolute type of moral rectitude, honor and virtue. If Jesus Is not the son of God He la not a good man. Everyone believes Him to have been truth, ful. He said He was the son of God, and He Is what He saya He la or He Is an Im postor or a fanatic. The whole world In sists upon Hla spotless purity. He proves what He Is. Jesua only has planted His love on this earth and kept It growing. Who today carea anything about Caesar or Napolean? Jesus never wrote a book. Ho was not a man of literary attainments; He never led an army, neither was He a philosopher, but yet He Is master of all the ages. Men come to Jesus and are ready to die for H!m. No man needs to be Intro duced to Him. 'Who say ye that He is? Our hearts unite In one universal answer He la our Almighty Savior." JEWS HAVE PASSOVER SERVICES. Rabbi Simon Speaks at the Temple, Rabbi Reaer la a Hall. Pa Mover services at Temple Israel were celebrated Sunday morning by Rabbi Simon This celebration la In commemoration of the passing of the Children of Israel from the land of Egypt the first recorded effort of any people to make a struggle for na tional liberty, and a struggle which was successful without the shedding of blood. For thirty-five centuries the feast ot the Passover has been celebrated, and has al ways been in the nature of a festival ot freedom. There was a special liturgical aervlce and the prayera and Invocations were all in thanksgiving for liberty and petitions tor Its continuance. A special musical ritual In harmony with the idea was observed. In tho story of the scrip tural leason for the day waa the command AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Etter! Eesignatiao Start!

Etter as chief of the South Omaha fire department a lively scramble for hla official shoes has atarted. Etter waa appointed chief of the department on July 1, 1900, but It was not until July 10 that be assumed control ot the department. During hla term of aervlce Etter has done good work and ia well liked by the men who served under him. Aa for the candidatea for the place, tour have announced themselves and a couple are holding bark. George Curtis, the present assistant chief, will hold down the job ot acting chief and city electrician for a time, but no one seems to know Just how long this time will be. Charles Alstadt, who baa worked on both the polloe and fire departments for a number of years, is a candidate for chief and he says be wants the position. Then there la Captain Garrett of No. 1 hose company. Garrett has been on the department ao long that he remembera when N street was a mudhole and a creek ran along where the Packers' bi.uk now atanda. Last ot all, tor the present, Is the application of Fred Smith, for nine years chief of the department. Smith baa been out of office for over three years and he wants to get back. All of the candidatea mentioned are working hard for the place. Mayor Koutsky Insists that he will not appoint a chief Just now. He figures that when the proposed fire and police board takes control it will want to name Ha own chief and therefore he has placed Curtis in charge. Some of the members . ot the council favor the Idea ot the mayor naming a chief now In order to forestall any ac tion on the part of the coming fire and po lice board. This the mayor does not' want to do, but the candidatea are urging an ap pointment. The fight for the place la a lively one. The salary of chief la $1,200 a year. Another Saapect Arrested.

Hayea on the assertion that he has a mania for running after little girls. Sunday forenoon. It ia said, he made remarka to children on the streets, which, when repeated to the par ents, caused' the Immediate arrest of Hayes. Chief Brlgga said last night that when Hayes comes up for trial a very se rious charge will be filed against him. Retail Dealers Will Orgranlae. A call has been iasued for a meeting of the retail dealera In all linen ot business Thursday night, April 16, at the South Omaha club. It la understood that the retail dealera will - at this meeting form an organization tor , mutual, protection. Among the questions to be discussed will be the Issuing of another blue book and also the arrangementa for keeping atorea open certain evenlnga each week. Easter Service. At all the churches in South Omaha yesterday there was an unusually large attendance at the services and the music waa one of the special features. In the afternoon the Young Men's Christian as AT THE PLAYHOUSES Vaadevllte at tho Crelhtoa-Orphem. It's a merry lot of funmakera they have on the bill at the Creighton-Orpheum thla week. The performance opens with a laugh and enda with a rear, and all the way be tween the proceedings are punctuated with giggles . and guffaws, with smiles and chuckles, all occasioned by the perform ances on the stage, which range from the mildly humoroua to the wildly ludicrous, with one musical turn that stands by I'sclf at the head ot Its class. Not an act on the bill carries any scenery; . each depends solely on the talent of the performers and each wins on merit alone. Kennedy and Rooney open the show with some new sug gestions In the line of eccentric dances. Julia Ring sings some topical songs In a way to secure the approval ot her hearers, and then Dave Nowltn glvea his own In imitable Imitations of animals. Fisher and Carroll close the first belt of the bill with a conversation that la Just a little bit dif ferent in every respect from any other act of the aort yet seen here. What the New York Irishmen who threw eggs at the comedian In "McFadden'a Row of Flats" would do if they heard Carroll bark like a sea Hon can only be guessed at. "Mua'cal" Dale Is aa good aa bis name and furnishes genuine music on chimes and harmonicas. Yorke and Aiama are easily the best pair f Hebrew dialect comedians ever seen ere and have an entirely new "line of talk" for their performance. Rice and Walters are not only excellent acrobats, but re good comedians and do a aeries of mirth-provoking stunts without any of the ccessorlea usually adopted by their brethren. For one thing, all their tum bling, and tbls Includes an infinitude of bard falls, is done on tre bare stage floor. The pictures in the klnodroroe are good. It would be unfair to all the others to speak of the applause given any ono of the turns yesterday. All were received ith enthusiasm by the large audiences at both afternoon and evening performances, and each fully merited the applause It re ceived. For entertainment pure and sim ple It Is worthy to be classed with the beat bills ever seen at the house. Human Heart" at tho Boyd. Hal Reed's "Human Hearts" la certainly popular In Omaha. It was given at the Boyd yesterday for the second time th's season and the house was crowded at both matinee and evening performances. The members of the company were cheered to do their best or their worst by the en thusiastic support they received from the udlences, who were nut content with the usual method of expressing sympathy with the hero and condemnation for the villain. but several tlmea broke Into audible com ment. ."Get off the stage," was the re mark of one husky man who sat in the back row of the dress circle aa he listened to the she-vlllaln while she upbraided the hero, and when she was finally overtaken by her doom be heaved a sirh and spoke out plainly, "Served her right." If mov ing the audience may be taken aa a cri terion, the engagement was a success. to the high priest that In the atonement ritual h ahould bind together the hyssop j soclation meeting was held at Maaonlc SERVICES Or THE EPISCOPALIANS, They Attract Attendance that Crowd tho Rnlldlngs. Easter In most of the Episcopal churches of Omaha waa observed In an elaborate and lavish manner. There was opulence of lilies and light and special music assisted in ren dering the services more than ordinarily beautiful and Impressive. Following the custom, there were two principal services one known as the sunrise service, early In the morning, and the other near noon. At both communion was given the members. Immenso crowds attended, deaptte the threatening aspect of the sky and the chill winds. , At Trinity cathedral the sunrise service was at 6. For this and the 11 o'clock icr vice hundreds of extra chairs had to be placed in the alslea and to the rear to ac commodate the congregation. The altar waa a blate of light from many candlea and gas flames, while the simple lilies half hid the choir and banked and overtopped the space behind the chancel rail. A special choir of sixty-five voices aang under the direction ot Mr. Wright, and Robert Mc Cormack sang Handel's "I Know My Re deemer Liveth." In his sermon Rev. Rob ert E. L. Craig said: "Today the human race not only galna a new hope, but receives a pledge, a title, a sign of a new life, for Christ has risen from the dead. To me It appears that had Christ not risen It would have been the greater miracle. The greatest miracle was Hla life a human life without spot or blemish. The world had aeen resurrections before, but never before had they seen a perfect life. The resurrection from the dead followed, aa a natural consequence. The Incorruptible life within Htm was stronger than the grasp or death. Jesus rose from the dead because the germ, the seed ot lifo within Him had never been subject to death or weakened by aln. No grave could have held that buoyant. Irresistible life. It Is Impossible for life to be destroyed as long aa it la held In obedience to Its law. "In the death ot Jeaus there la one thing that all should remember He died because He wished to die. All other men die because they must. Had Jesus not been able to con tinue living, had He ao willed, He would have made no sacrifice by dying.-' Special music was prepared for All Saints' church, where Mr. C. S. Haverstock sang "Alleluia! He la Risen," at the 11 o'clock aervlce. At the aunrlse aervlce, which In thla church was held at 7: JO. Mr. D. H. Wheeler, Jr.. aang the anthem, "Alle luia! the Lord Liveth." and Mlsa Porter field aang Dennee's "Easter Song." Tb Mendelssohn Male quartet assisted the reg ular choir. . At the Church of the Good Shepherd Mra. Learned, Mlaaea McCune and Metsra. Mc Cune and Beresford assisted the choir In singing especially prepared music. At 8t. Vatthlaa' church there waa apodal mualo and Chester Anderson and Mrs. W. J. Lamp nan wr aololsta. and the cedar with a scarlet thread, and It waa this Instruction which served as the text of the sermon by the minister. Ha spoke of the hyssop, a small shrub or vine, a typical ot the people of Israel and their aspirations for liberty: this liberty had been maintained for centuries by the Jews before the coming ot Jeaua, who brought to the world the Idea of life the Christian Idea of Immortality, typified by the cedar, the tallest and proudest tree of the forest, the hyssop and the cedar bound together being typical of life and liberty, one worthless without the other, while the scarlet thread which holda them together Is typical ot Love, the power which moves the world to higher and better thlnga. At the Woodmen hall, at 9 a. m.. Rabbi Reser celebrated the feaat of the Passover after the rites ot the orthodox Jewish church. There Is considerable difference between the ritual of the orthodox Jews and that of the reformed Jewa, for the former hold to the central idea of the reatoratlon ot the temporal nationality of the Jewish people and a return to Jerusalem. To tbem the idea ot liberty Is not complete, and Passover, which la a celebration ot the Idea of liberty, brings with It aspirations tor a return to the land of the glory of the raoo and the restoration of the older rltea of the church and nation. In thla ritual are pray ers for the downtrodden and oppressed members of the race In all lands. They pray tor the restoration ot the sacrifices such aa in an earlier day were made at Jerusalem. Since the downfall of Jerusalem the sacrificial form of religious worship haa been abandoned by the Jews becauae aacrlflce can only be made upon the altar In the holy city, and for thla reaaon the prayer for the restoration of sacrificial worship aa the lamb waa formerly sacri ficed at the feast of the Passover Is but a prayer for the Independence of tha race In the land of lta glory. Rabbi Reser'a theme at the aervlce was "The Passover." and he gave an historical aurvey of the feast, telling of It Institution by divine precept aa a perpetual memorial of the power of Jehovah In bringing His chosen people from bondage; of Its obser vance In th earlier day, and of the form In which It baa been celebrated since the dis persion of the Jews from the sr.cred city caused them to substitute ritualism for sacrificial worship, and of the hope of the people for the restoration ot the ritea of the early church In the holy land.

BISHOP FOSS BELIEVES THEM ay Ho Ha Faith tn the Conversions Made by Missionaries In . India. Bishop Fobs of the Methodist Episcopal church, who spent Sunday In the city, telle of a very interesting experience and ob servation durttt hi visit to the mission ary field In India a few years ago. He apoke relative to the sincerity of the con version of tha heathen In those landa, ay lng: "I waa deeply Impressed by the remark of an English nobleman Interested In mis sionary work, who was going to India on the same vessel with me. He aaid, In speak ing ot the number of recent conversions that had been reported by our society, they must be very raw converts. Over 1,400 con verts had been reported during a very re cent period, and his remark atruck me with considerable force. Implying as it did a doubt of the real conversion of the con verts. ' I determined to investigate the mat ter closely when 1 reached Borada, our principal mission station and near where th conversions were made. I did so. I asked our resident missionary about It. Ho told me that the conversions were sincere, devout and real. And It was my sincere pleasure to verify his statement shortly thereafter when a gathering of the con- verta had assembled to see; the American bishop. I asked them through the Inter prefer If they , seemed to understand the creed, and could they repeat It and the Lord's Prayer. He had tbem recite the apostles' creed and Lord's Prayer, and they did ao with a fervor and completeness that would do credit to any American congrega tion here .In Omaha. These 1,400 convers ions were the result of the work of fifteen of the first converts of a year or two pre vious. They believed and went about among their countrymen with the most intense seal, spreading the gospel of Christ, and today the number of conversions reported from Borada Is not 1.400, but 14,600. I al lude to thla to show you that the work of the Blaster Is spreading under missionary Influences with the moat gratifying rapid ity. The faith ot the converts is as firm aa a rock and will be as enduring." FASHION DEFIES WEATHER Spring Styles Chow on Fatter Sunday Despite Chilling; Brefiea FROST NEARLY NIPS FRONT ON NEW HATS Indication for Tory Smart Snnamer, Ono of the Kind that Will Keep Papa Haatllna; to Keep Even.

The man who appeared tor the first time in j low snoes ana ugnt nose iremDiea lest ne be handed the card of a dealer In leggings and felt booti. Altogether It was a very unsatisfactory Eaater from' the purely temporal point of view Juat cool enough, yet clear 'enough to keep one In doubt about what other men and other womon were going to do. Enough of them took the bolder course, however, and made their spring display, to prove beyond a doubt that this will be a very smart summer one of the kind that will make the old man work overtime to keep even with the milliner and the young man plead for a raise. AM fashion have changed from last sum mer' standards slightly. The chap with a fancy "posillon" will wear his coat a trifle shorter, and the other chap with Juat a plain Job will . wear his' a trifle longer some of them as much as - six months longer. When it comes Panama time, tho lad that planted sixteen shining shekels in a good one last summer on the assump tion. that he could wear it again thia sum mer, must either plant again , or else put the old one in the folding bed for a week to get the close crease and the, peaked brim effect that the aummer fashion will demand. The trousers are to be cut In semblance of the African continent and be scarcely less broad. Thin Garment tor Women. As for a young woman's effects. It It only possible to say that the thinner she gets them this season the more readily will she be accepted as a real swell. By comparison the ordinary ballet dancer's outfit will seem cumberous and weighty garb, If the fash ion writers are telling the truth and the dressmakers not exaggerating. One emi nent authority writes: "The material moat favored la of the lighter weight goods which leana toward the sheer and dainty. Eta mine hae been succeeded by the voiles, which come In all dainty shades. Crepe de chenes are very popular; In fact, all ma terials requiring a silk foundation are In very good taste. But there must be tucks, pleats or shirring In every gown and there may be all three." The tucks, the pleats, the shirring and the silk foundation doubtless will be mod esty's saving agencies, but they make papa dream of modiste's bills eight days' long working days, at that. And the hat! Well, It's no roof, but the flat one this year. Mansard effects are forgotten. The contractor builds her bando as tall in front as a barn-yard fence, but the straw awning shoots out straight with nothing doing on top. The decorations all dangle from the underside. Here cherry orchards and grape patches may grow In profuse luxuriance, or. If preferred, it la quite proper to hang such lace strips as can be spared from last year's petticoats.

She did not use these words, but gave the inference In a paper on "The Celta of Western Eu rope," read before the society. According to Mrs. Hlggins, the words Celt, Gaul, Goth and Gael mean practically the same. The Celtt of western Europe, she believes, were th first ot the white race on the conti nent. She asserted that at tbelr beat they were the highest exponent of the Caucasian race, "tall and well formed, with eyes of the deepest blue, hair In which all the hues and raya of the sun were reflected and th clearest brains." She mentioned the fact that In the very remote days an Irish cbieftan had to be more than six feet tall or he was Irellgible for the position.
