A Thrilling Scene.
From the Barn esville Enterprise.

= a
A man named Mcknight, engaged last
summer on the Friends school house, has
recently manifested signs of insanity.
He was partially daft on religious subjects
and could not reconcile things TO his lik-
ing. Last week his affection grew strong
er, and he felt called upon to deliver q
message to lost and ruined world. The
scene of operations was near the
village of Glencoe. He chose "all
out Of DOORS for his chapel, and
an immense tree for his pulpit This
tree inclined toward the skies at an an.
gle of forty-dve degrees, and seventy
feet from the ground two large limbs
united with the trunk and formed q par
TALLY level space. Mcknight assembled
this tree, and when he reached his perch,
took text and preached . sermon two
hours long. If not the most eloquent
it was 1T least delivered from . higher
standpoint than ordinary preachers can
hope 70 attain. Without support Of any
kind, with hand swaying TO and fro, he
seemed insensible TO fea-, while presons
who saw his critical position looked on
with horror, expecting every moment
to see HIM all to the earth. But after
dwelling at length upon all points of
his discourse, he brought the sermon 70
close. and quietly descended from his
giddy perch. he was then taken in
charge by some friends and conveyed
TO ST. Evansville, with the intention of
finding him home where his life will
not be in danger.

Holy WEEK-Obseruances of the dif-
jerent Days in the Catholic and Episcopal
Observation-Disclosures season is drawing
to close, and Easter Sunday is fast APP
preaching. Spring seems to be coming
on in good earnest, and the prospects are
that with the ending of the forty days
period of prayer and abstinence, winter
will bid adieu to this region; and that
the blosoming and gay spring time will
be ushered in with the first day Of rejoic-
ing, which is next Sunday.
This, as is well known, is Passion
week. Monday and Tuesday were and
Wednesday of this week are termed Ro
CATION days, which are observed by
Catholics and Epscopals in suppilcation
and prayer to God for blessings in the
shape of the fruits OF the earth, and to be
preserved from pestilence and famine.
On Friday and Saturday the Office o.
"Tennebra" is chanted in the Catholic
church, and during the ceremony four.
teen candles are extinguished one by one
until all is darkness, thus IMPLYING the
abandonment OF Christ during his pas
sion. A white candle is concealed until
the close, when ii is placed on the top OF
the candlestick TO represent the Lord
To-day is Maundy-Thursday, and is
observed in memory of the Lords Last
Supper, when he instituted the blessed

sacred host, is beautifully and sppropri.
ately decorated and illuminated Pray
ers and thanksgiving are offered by those
who visit churches and the ceremonies of
blessing the sacred oils is one of the
features Of tho day.
Good Friday, Tomorrow, com memora-
ties the cruci1xion Of Christ, and then
the churches appear in mourning. Som
bre rnd solemn are the ceremonies of the
day, when the passion is sung, and pray
ers offered for all classes tppifying the

OnHoiy Saturday the body of the
Lord is supposed to be in the sepulchre,

lit, it is the type of bis resurrection.
Next Sunday will be Easter, and the

alters will be grandly decorated with rich
blossoms and profuse floral designs,
grand, swelling music and solemn chant
will breath out high honors, and the
whole sacred celebration win be inspir-
ing and impressive to the highest degree.
