THE CLOSING DAYS OFLENr.
The Observances of Holy Thursday
Tho Office of the Tenebr;e.

The Observances of Holy Thursday
Tho Office of the Tenebr;e.
To-day is Maundy Thursday, or Thurs
day in Holy Week. The day before Good
Friday has been marked from an early age
Of the church by acts of humility, in imi-
tation of that of Christ in washing the
feet of His disciples on the eve Of his pas
sion.
Yesterday was Wednesday in Holy
Week, and last night tue Office of the Ten
ebr;e was chanted in the Roman Catholic
churches. The name Tenebr9 is given to
the lauds and mathis which are usually
chanted on Wednesday evening of Holy
Week. At the beginning of the Office
which is chanted by the clergy of the en-
tire diocese, who assemble in the sanctu-
airy, thirteen lighted candles are placed
on triangular caudelabrum erected
within the chancel rail, and at the end OF
eacn psalm one is put out until only sim
Ce candle is left lighted at the apex of
the triangle. During the singing of the
Benedictus the candles on the high altar
are extinguished, while at the antiphOn
after the Benedictus the single candle
left alight is hidden at the Epistle corner
Of the altar, to be brought out again at
the end Of the office. This eXtinguishing
of lights (whence probably the name
l6hCoitb 10 lubcButu 10 uSuTe Lue grow
ing darkness Of the time when Christ, the
Light Of the World, was taken. The last
candle, according to Benedict XIV, is
hidden. not eXtinguished, to signify that
death could not really obtain dominion
over the Saviour, although it appeared to
do so. The clapping of hands made at
the end of the Office is said to signify the
confusion consequent upon the death Of
! the Saviour.
The Observances OF to-day in the Roman
/ Catholic and EpiscOpalian churches are
| especially solemn and impressive. There
| will be almost continual services in the
| Cathedral from now until Easter is past
| At Christ EpiscOpal) Church the observ-
/ ances will be most solemn. At st. Johns
/ the holy communion will be celebrated at
& O'Clock this evening.
| Tomorrow will be the great day of
mourning, and is the most solemn dav Of
the year in the church. In all churches
/ which observe Lent the services are
| marked with unusual solemnity.
The services of Holy Week, which have
! been IN progress in the Lutheran church
since Sunday last, viii be continued By a
| German service tonight at 8 p. IN. On
! Good Friday there will be preaching, and
service preparatory to the holy commuu-
ion at IL a. m. On Easter Sunday morn.
ing there viii be Confirmation and holy
communion, and at night the Sabbath
school will celebrate its anniversary.
Rev. Prof A. q. Voigt, OF Newberry
College, s. c., is assisting the pastor in
| the services.

RAIN SPOILS THE GAME.
THE HOME CLUB STARTS OFF
WITH FOUR EASY RUNS.

The Memphians sim In the Field with
savannah Counting at the Bat when
the Game is Called-The Games Else
where-Tuesday's Winners Defeated.
The second game between Savannah
and Memphis was not played yesterday
on account of rain. The weather was
threatening early in the afternoon, but
with the hope that the rain would blow
over, fair crowd went out 10 the ball
grounds. The grand stands were we'll
hlled half an hour before the time for the
game 70 be called. Both clubs were in
the grounds practicing. The Savannahs,
IN their new uniforms, showed up like a
new team. The suits are of pearl gray
hsnnel, with maroon trimming. The caps
are Of the same material as the
suits. The stockings are dark maroon.
The uniform is neat, without being IN any
way nashy, and adds greatly to the ap-
pearance OF the team.
After watching half an hours practice
the crowd became impatient for the game
to begin A heavy thunder shower had
Deen coming up for some time, but the
crowd hoped that it would 20 around and
mat the game would not be interrupted.
At 4 O'Clock Umpire Brennan swept the
DUST of the home plate and called The
game.
The visitors went into the field, and
savannah went to the bat. O'Leary, the
leithanded pitcher, and Fusselbach held
the points Cor the MemphIans. Collins
led oil with a safe hit into centre field,
ard trotted down TO first base. MOriarity
followed close on his heels. O'Day drove
the ball out OF reach into right field, and
brought Collins, who had stolen 10
second, down to third. and M0riarlty to
second. Strict followed ODay at the Dat,
bringing Collins home and filling thu
bases. Field made safe hit, and
MOriarIty came home and
was followed by O'Day and
Strlef, counting tour runs without man
out. Field was on second and Miller was
at the bat, with six balls on O'Leary,
when 1t began TO rain and the game was
called.
The crowd waited patiently until the
half hour allowed BY the rules had
elapsed, when Manager Morton annOunc-
ed that the game was postponed until
Friday, when it viii be played on the of
day IN the schedule. The regular sche-
duIe game Will be played to-day.
Manager Sneed, of the Memphis club,
expects his new catcher, Gel BrOughton,
from GAINESVILLE, Wis, on this mornings
train. IL he arrives knOut will be put i'm
the box with BroughtOn to catch, other
wise Leary and Fusselbach will be the
visitors battery. Either Neal or Nolan
and Mclaughlin or Cullen will be the
battery for the home team. II BrOughtOn

GUNrowDEn STARTS A BLAZE.
Deutsch's Grocery ou Henry ana DrSF-
ton streets Burned.


A few minutes before / o'clock this
morning residents in me aeighborhood OF
Henry end Drayton streets we're
startled bv loud explosion, fol-
lowed by rafting OF doors and
the crashing Of window panes. The
people rushed out Of their houses into the
street to see what was the matter, and
/ saw the grocery store of Chas. 5. Deutsch,
( on the northwest corner of Henry and
Dravton streets. in flames.
The front OF the store on Henry street
WIS blown out, exposing the entire inte-
rior, which WIS a mass of tiercely burn
ing flames The wreckage Of the building
lay all over the street. Policeman Dwyer,
who heard the explosion ana buried %
the scene, turned in an alarm calling out
the fire department. The first alarm was
followed shortly atterward by sec
ond alarm caused by the lnstru-
ment not working properly. After
the door Of the signal box had been closed
the alarm went off again. bringing out
the reserve engines, which returned TO
their quarters after responding 10 the
call, there being no need for their services.
The explosion was believed 70 have been
caused by the ignition Of about % pounds
or SunpOWder, which was kept next TO
can OF kerosene and among other goods on
the Henry street side Of the store, How
II was ignited remains a mystery. Mr..
George Schroeder. who occupied the
house adjoining the store, on Henry
street, had returned home, with his wife
and child. a short time before, and mad
fallen asleep Oh the lounge. The shock Of
the explosion threw MIN to the floor.
but fortunately he managed to
save his wife and child before the fire
obtained Roadway. He lost pretty much
all OF his household furniture which, now
ever, was covered by insurance in Whea-
tons agency TO the extent Of $1,000. The
store, as could be learned, was closed up
about 10 O'Clock bv MIR. Deutsch. the pro-
priet0r, who then left for his boarding
house on state street. His clerk, John
Riley, who sleeps in a room at the rear OF
the store, had previously gone to the
Theatre, but returned about y O'Clock,
and his companion SAID he saw him go
into the store and into his room,
but he had not seen him since.
II was feared that be was in the building
when the explosion occurred and had per-
ished In the fire, but he was afterwards
seen downtown, having left the store
lew minutes after he went in.
Mr.. Deutsch was not at the fire, but 1t
is said had about $500 insurance on his
stock, but in what agencies could not be
ascertained. The building and stock
were entirely destroyed.
