The paion>s Country, Washington.
This sectiuu OF the northwest is daily
attracting the attention Of eastern people,
especially is this true since the completion
of the Union Pacific through this new
empire, thus opening up a direct line from
the Missouri river to Spokane Falls, Just
north of the Palouse country.
Many desirable farms may yet be had
in this remarkably productive region on
reasonable terms. as the settling of this
vast section is yet in its infancy.
The Union Pacific is now the most direct
line, and with its fast time, elegant
equipment and low rates of fare, is the
favorite route to this region from all
points east.
For rates. pamphlets or other matter

A DAY OF JOY.
Lenten Gloom Replaced To-day BY
Easter G~Iadness.
Special Celebrations in All of the
Churches.
Elaborate %CeremoniaIs of the Cath
oiics and EpiscopaIians.

Today. Easter Sunday, is one of the
greatest ecclesiastical festivals ofthe whole
year. This morning the sadness and gloom
OF Lent give way to rejoicing and gladness.
Gorgeous ceremonial. Joyous music, flow
ers and lights take the place of the sack
cloth and ashes of the penitential season.
The festival will be celebrated at St.
Mary's Cathedral by a more than usually
elaborate ceremonial. The adornment of
the main altar was finished late yesterday
evening, and Tor beauty and chasteness of
design excels anything we have yet seen
in the west. The services will be at the
usual hours, $50 and 1890 a. m. and
vespers at 1880 in the evening. Father
Nugent will o%fhciate, and the music by
the choir will be fully up to the high
standard of last Chiistmas and Easter.
The term Easter is Anglo Saxon and is
probably derived from the old German of
ostartn, now oster, being the name of a
festival celebrated among the pagan
Teutons in honor of the Goddess of light.
In the language of the Catholic church
the feast is called PdScha derived from
the Hebrew Pessdch. meaning the Pass
over. On this day the Jews celebrated the
commemoratiou of the miraculous passage
of the people ofIsrael t~hrouRhthe Red Sea
and they also commemorated the passage of
the angel OF the Lord, who slew the first
born of the Egyptians while he passed
over the houses of the I~sraelltes whose
door posts we're sprinked with the blood
of the paschal lamb. For Christians, a
real passover has taken place today, of
which that of the ancient law was but the
6gare.
In all Catholic services today it will be
remarked that the word Alleluia is used
very often. This is an expression OF
praise or rejoicing and is a Hebrew word
which means praise the Lord" or
praise be to Cod" In Rome when the
choir intones the first Alleluia at the
Easter mass, one of the officiating priests
goes to the throne of the pope aud says:
Holy Father. | announce to YOU great
IOf IA 10 hheiula- III mauf coun
tries In Europe the people salute each
other today with this expression.
The Easter eggs come down to us too
from Catholic times. For MANY centuries
they were blessed In the church before
they were gwen as presents. The egg is
looked upon as the symbol OF resurrec-
ton.
The festival OF Easter can only come as
early as the I'D of March md no later
thar the oath Of April. 1t is always on
the hrst sunday after the iull moon.

The Golden Gate Tours Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad.

Preparations for the inaugural series of
pei lsonally conducted tours TO the Pacific
Coast, under the auspices Of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, are progressing, and a de-
tailed outline Of their scope, routes, rates,
and conditions will be published at an
early day. In the meantime sufficient
headway has been made to indicate that
the tours will surpass any similar pleasure
trips heretofore enjoyed by the people of
the Eastern States. The special trains of
Pullman Ycstibule, Sleeping, and Dining
Cars will exemplify the latest and best
work Of the Pullman shops. They will run
through to California on quick time, de-
livering their passengers at desirable
points in the Golden State and picking
them up at the appointed rendezvous for
the return trip. Tourist Agents and
Chaperons of wide experience will conduct
the party and minister to their comfort in
every possible way. Peculiarly favorable
concessions will be granted them by the
railroads Of the Pacific Slope, so that their
movements may be productive Of the
fullest pleasure at the lowest cost
These tours are the most ambitious at
tempts yet projected by the Pennsylvania
personally escorted system to provide
pleasure tours Of the highest grade, and
the travelling public may depend upon
securing in them the most perfect service.
The first tour will leave the East late in
January. II will be limited to one hun
drcd persons, and those who anticipate an
early Spring outing to the shores of the
Pacific should place themselves in cor.
respondenee at once with Mr. J. II. Wood
