Prof. Herman Ebeling presided at the
organ, which was admirably manipulated
throughout. The choir was composed Of
the wsll-known singers: Mrs Z. P. Whit
ney, soprano; Miss Sallie Campbell. alto;
Mr.. w. II. Sheib tenor, and Prot. Gut.
senburg, basso. Their organization
was perfect, and Is the result
of thorough knowledge and care
full training. Mrs. Whitney was in
admirable voice, and filled her labor
ious and difficult task with great credit.
He- solos were particularly fine, espe-
cially in the re Deun, which was very
Aorid composition, and probably, from q
musical standpoint, the chef d oeuore Of
the morning performance. g
The great want which has heretofore
existed in this choir in the shape Of
tenor was fully supplied by W. d.
Sheib, whose pure voice completed the
harmony of the quartette. Miss Camp
bell and Prof Gutenberg filled their
parts admirably. The part which more
pleased our ears was the "Jubilate Deo,"
one of the most charming and melodious
compositions it has been our good fortune
to listen to for many day. Mr.. Sheib's
solo, "be ye sure" &c, was the sweetest
tenor solo we ever heard, and will
ever dwell pleasantly IN our memory.
Tho 9sth Hymn was beautifully
sung, each voice having solo. We
might here remark that after its an
nouncemeht, Rev. Mr.. Armstrong read it
throughout, as great a treat as was
afforded during the day, and a practice
which we wish he would more fire.

out the service was very fine, and in his
hands its beauties are more fully devel-
oped than in any other we have ever
heard His remarks from the chancel
were very happy substitute for ser

many respects, a repetition of the morn

At the English Lutheran church, Rev.

Took RUN.-Saturday evening the
horse attached to the Theatre Comique
band, wagon took run from the Intelh-
qencer office, where he was standing, up
Fourteenth street to Chapline, where he
stopped, without dong any damage. The
bass drum fell out, and was lugged of by
a small boy, not injured in the least, and
the operator on the drum will pound out
delightful music (?)to the public just IS
usual, hereafter. The horse either took
fright at Rev. Halsted's performances
on the trapeze, or else he wanted to 60
home to supper. We are unable to tell
which; but at any rate the horse was
brought back and given a solo on the
drum for his supper. s.s

in England, and in the northern counties
of that country men formerly paraded the
streets and claimed the privilege Of lift

ticed BY the women to the men on the
ensuing day. By examining books de-
failing the customs of the English people
in observing various festivals and holi
days, any person specially interested in
the subject can find multitudes OF singu-
lar acts that were performed IN "olden
times" at the recurrence of every Easter
feast. some of them not as innocent as the
above.
Easter Sunday, 1875, was celebrated
in Wheeling according to the custom for
years past. At the Roman Catholic, Pro.
testant Episcopal and Lutheran
Churches, the festival was more or less
observed. The Episcopal and Roman
Catholic edifces were made the recepta
Giles of profusion of flowers, and the
splendid music, the solemn sermons and
Holy Communion, were all calculated to
lead the persons composing the immense
audiences that assembled, to reflect on the

..6h rSsf n 21ssn,'-The FESTIVAL ofthe
Resurrection Observance OF the
Day in Wheeling-Reautifu Music
and Flsral 0asrings- 9cat ~.A
The word Easter, ngnifyiny the festi-
val Of the of the resurrection Of our Lord,
or the Christian passover, Is supposed to
have been derived from the name of the
feast of the Teutonic goddess 0stera-the
goddess Of spring@which was celebrated
by the ancient Ss1ons during that season
of the year, the early missionaries after.
wards substituting the Christian festival.
According to certain writer both tho
English and German words are derived
from the old Saxon word osttr or ostsa,
meaning rising, Is nature arises anew in
the tspring. According to the Mosaic
law the passover among the Jews was
celebrated on the fourteenth /. day
of the month Abb, that is, within q
day or two before or after the vernal
equinox.
THE EARLY CHRISTIANS
cherished different opinions as regarded
the time OF celebrating Easter. Those in
the West observed the nearest Sunday to
the full moon of Nissan, without respect
to the day of the passover. The Eastern
churches, however, adopted the four
tenth of Abb, or Nissan, according to
the Jewish calendar, as the day Of the
crucifxtion, celebrating the feast OF the
Easter on the third day following.
Ih the year A. ID. 1913, Victor,
Bishop of Rome, peremptorily ordered
the Asiatic, or Eastern, bishops to con-
form to the practice of their Western
brethren. This they refused TO do, when
Victor severed communion with the
Eastern churches. The matter continued
a subject OF discussion until the year 325,
when the Council of Nice settled 1t by
ADOPTING the rule which makes Easter day
the first Sunday after.
THEF NOON, .... a....-.
which happens on or next after March
Dist, and if the full moon occurs on q
Sunday, Easter day ia the Sunday fol-
lowing. Easter may thus come as early
as March 22d, or as late as April 25th.
This sacred festival, which has been
termed the queen of festivals" is OBJ
served with great solemnity and devo-
ton. The primitive Christians on the
morning OF Easter saluted each other
with the words "Christ is risen" to which
the response was made, "Christ is risen
indeed, and hath appeared TO Simon"
In nearly all Christian countries the
recurrence of Easter has been celebrat-
ed with various ceremonies, popular
sports and supcrstitions. Among the
most generally known in the United
States is the English custom Of making
presents of colored eggs, etc. Some
times the eggs are deliberately ornament
ed. Colored eggs are also used by
children at Easter in q sort of game
which consists in testing the strength of
the shells. The game of ball was once.

A Wife's Power.

A good wife is to man, wisdom,
strength and courage; a bad one is
confusion, weakness and despair. No
condition is hopeless to man where
the wife possesses fl mness, decision and
economy. There is 20 outward pro
priety which can counteract Incidence.
extravaganza and folly at home. No
spirit can long endure bad influence.
Man is strong; but bis heart is not
adamant. He needs tran Gull mind +;
and especially if he is an intelligent
man, with whole head, he needs its
moral force in the conflict of life. To
recover his composare, home must be a
place of peace and comfort. There his
soul renews its strength, and goes forth
with renewed vigor to encounter the
labor and troubles of life. But if at
home he finds no rest, and there is met
with a bad temper, jealousy and gloom,
or assailed with complaints aud cen
sure, hope vanishes, and he sinks into
despair.

TEACHING CHILDREN COURAGE


Courage is vital clement of Chris
tian chivalry. Without it, indeed, nei
ther truth nor fidelity TO promise can be
hoped for. The coward is sure to lie
when truth means punishment, and sure
to retreat from his engagements when
they involve peril. We need valiant
souls who have learned to endure and
scorn pain,and to face danger fearlessly
and promptly when duty requires. Some
parents evade this vital part of training
by CLOSES and deception. A mother
who has taken her boy to the dentist to
get tooth out, will often say, if he is
shrinking, "Sit still, my boy, it won't
hurt you" Now, she knows it will hurt
him, but thinks if she can only get him
by this device to sit still and let the
dentist get hold of his tooth, then his
discovery of pain will not hinder its ok
trication. This is a double mistake.
1t destroys the boys confidence in her +;
for he detects her in lie. And though
it gets the boy this time, to sit still, it
is under the delusion that there is to be
no pain, whereas he should be taught
to face the pain and to scorn it. This
makes the difference between the cow
ards and the heroes A regiment of
paltroons could march up to a battery
as eheerfully as regiment Of heroes if
they thought there was no enemy at the
guns. The difference is that heroes
know the danger, ana yet face it val~
iautly.

FRETTfNG.
iiautlv.

One fretter can destroy the peace of
family, can disturb the harmony Of
neighborhood, can unsettle the councils
of cities and hinder the legislation Of
nations. He who frets is never the one
who mends, whe heal, who repairs evils;
more, he discoufages, enfeebles, and too
often disables those around him, who
but for tie gloom and depression of his
company, would do good work and keep
up brave cheer. The effect upon sen.
sitive person of the mere neigh borhood
of fretter is indiscribable 1t is to the
soul what Geld, icy mist is the body
more chilling than the bitterest storm
And when the fretter is one who is be-
loved, whose nearness Of relation to US
makes his fretting at the weather seem
like personal reproach to us, then the
misery Of 1t becomes indeed insupporta-
Die. Most men call frettlng minor
fauit-a foible, and not vice. There
is no vice except drunkenness which can
so utterly destroy the peace, the happi~
ness of a home.
A WORD ABOUT MARRIAGE,-A ply.
sician writes the following sensible ad
vice: "My profession has thrown me
among women of all classes, and my ex-
perience teaches me that God never
gave man a greater proof Of his love
than to place woman with him. My
advice is: Go, propose to the most sen
sible girl You know. If she says yes,
tell her how much your income is, from
what source derived, and tell her you
Will divide the last shilling with her,
and love her with all your heart IN the
bargain. And then keep your promise.
My word for it,she will live within your
income, and to your last hour you will
regret that you did not marry sooner.
Gentlemen, don't worry about feminine
extravaganza and feminine untruth.
Just you be true to her, love her sin
cerely, and throw it up to her frequent
ly, and a more fond, faithful, foolish
slave you will never meet anywhere.
You won't deserve her. I know, but she
will never see it. Now throw aside sell
6shness and pride and see what will
come of it.
