HOW IT WAS OBSERVED IN THE CITY
CHURCHES.

pirate Sermons.

Easter was undoubtedly more generally
observed in Wheeling this year than for
MANY seasons past. Saturday evening had
much the appearance of Christmas eve,
and the streets were crowded with people
making Easter purchases. Thousands Of
children awoke yesterday morning and were
pleased to fad that the Easter hen had re-
membered them by dropping in during the
night and laying eggs with their names
preitily moulded upon them.
Candy eggs have largely taken the place
of the re gular hen egg of commerce. ana II
is probably nicer in many ways. II mas
one good effect in preventing an advance IN
price for the regular article, and then most
children would rather eat candy eggs than
hard boiled ones, even if they cannot fight
them.
The older folks, as well as the children,
were remembered with various kinds OF
Faster membranes by their friends, and
the ladies burst forth as the rose in all the
beautv of her Easter attire, and she who
had captured one of the sample shapes on
display at the openings was envied by her
less fortunate sisters. Walk into any
church in the city, yesterday morning,
and the eye was RECALLED with display OF
nodding millinery that for style
and variety could not be
e0nalled by any milli5ery store
in the city, because they must have been
nrettv well cleaned out. And fl0wersl
There were roses, Lilies, hyacinths, tuilps'
carnations, Easter flowers and others In
profusiop. and they we're worn as corsage
5ououets by the ladies, used TO decorate
the affairs and windows, while gentleman
here aud there could be seen with rose
or other flower in his buttonhole.
The churches were probably never bStore
so we'll attended, and this was especially
so of ST.. Joseph's Cathedral. Every
service during the day was participated IN
nv an unusual assemblage of wOrshippers.
This was also true of the services at the
Cathedral all during Lent. Il seemed
that everybody who could possibly do
80 went 10 church, and many who do not
appear inside the wall OF place OF wor-
shin more than half dozen times
wear, made special effort to be present.
OF course the services and decorations
were probably more elaborate at the Epis-
copal and Catholic churches, but great
many others had special Easter services,
and the chorus sang appropriate music,
the programmes of whichwere published in
Saturday mornings REGISTER. As a
hasty look through the churches was all
that could be made, the result is some
thing like the following:

FREAKS OF FASHION.

THE latest craze among actresses is the hand and arm photograph. They spend no end of money for such pictures.
 THE fashionable color for the hair is pro- nounced to be Ia particularly beautiful and natural-looking shade of bright bronze brown"
 "SoAP bubble parties" are fashionable amusement in the vicinity of Reading, Pa. The point of the game Is to see which can blow the largest bubble.
 TRUNK MAKERS say that the gigantic Saratogas are tout of style," and that women of good sense are preferring to buy two moderate sized trunks, about forty inches long, with flat tops and iron bands and oak tips. Wicker trunks are also popular.
 IT is becoming quite the thing nowadays among fashionable shoemakers to sift either orris root powder or some lasting sachet powder between the leather and the lining of ladies' boots. They also have in stock dainty little shakers filled with the powder mixed with soapstone, which may be used at will.
 TIE latest fad in photography is the portrait stamp This unique device Is a miniature photograph on a piece of paper the size of q postage stamp It is gummed on the buck side and is used in a variety of ways In writing to absent friends the portrait is pasted at tho head of the letter or Tn place of the signature.
