EASTER SUNDAY.
Observance OF tho Great Festival in

Observance OF tho Great Festival in
the City OF Brass.
But for the clouds of dust yesterday
would have been an ideal Easter Sun
day. The sun shone brilliantly and the
air was sharp and invigoratlng in the
morning and in the afternoon mellow
and pleasing to promenaders. There was
the usual display of spring costumes by
the ladies. Thousands of people attended
the religious services and the churches
themselves were made fragrant and
beautiful with flowers. At most of them
special musical programme, more
elaborate and brilliant than usual, was
presented and the sermons were appro-
pirate to the joyful nature of the occa-
sion.
At the Immaculate Conception church
the alter was beautifully decorated.
The occasion was made more impressive
by the opening at the 1920 mass of the
forty hours alteration. The officers of
the solemn high mass were as follows ::
Rev Father Mulcahy, celebrant ; Rev
Father Walsh, deacon; Rev Father
ODonnell, master of ceremonies. The
following clorgymen also assisted: Rev
Fathers Quinn, of Collinsville; Dineen,
of Southington Barry, of Torrlngton !:
Schneider, of-Hartford Gibbons, of
New Britain, and Smith, Of Bristol.
At the church of the Sacred Heart the
musical programme was a feature as
usual. Bergin's orchestra assisted at
both merning and evening services and
the music was of high order.
Special musical programmes were also
rendered at st Patrick's and st AIMS
churches and the decorations in both
! were beautiful.
Four services were conducted at st
Johns church by Rev DIR Rowland and
Rev Mr. McCracken of St Margarets
school. At Trinity church the sermon
was by the rector, Rev Mr. Micou. In
the evening there was an Easter con-
cert. Rev DR. Anderson preached at the
morning service In the First church and
in.ths Second church Rev J. G. Daven-
port occupied the pulpit at the morning
service. In the evening Messrs Gates
and Harris, missionaries on their way
to Africa, preached. The services in
the Methodist, Baptist and st Paula
churches were also largely attended, the
pulpit in the latter being occupied by
Grant G. Tullar, brother of the pastor.

the whole interior was mass OF flames
and dense volumes of smoke rolled up
from the sheds four sides.
Thousands of men, women ana chill
dren witnessed the huge bonfire from
the surrounding hills. A line of freight
cars on the Naugatuck road was taken
possession of by the crowds and some OF

from the cross-arms of neighboring tele-
graph poles.
Several streams were played upon
the building for hours, but the fire con-
tinued to burn until Mr. BlaEeslee's men
removed hundreds of bales OF hay and
straw. 1t was after 10 o'clock when the
recall sounded. One line of hose crossed
Bank street and the horse cars did moi
run to Brooklyn after $50 o'clock.

The Credit of Waterbury Weakene ed

The Credit of Waterbury Weakened
by the Carroll Failure.
The credit Of Waterbury and the
whole state has suffered to consider
able extent through the sharp work of
p. H. Carroll, who disappeared ten days
ago leaving numerous creditors in the
hole to the extent Of nearly $4,000. A
South Main street merchant who
dropped into a New York wholesale
house Saturday, overheard the proprie-
tor giving orders to trust no Connecti-
cut man unless his reputation was away
above par.
The Waterbury man asked for an ex-
PLANTATION and the wholesaler unbosomed
himself as follows was born in Green
wich, and yet unless native of that
state is rated high 1 don't care to trust
him. Up there men rush into business
without giving the matter thought.
If they are successful, all goes well. If
not the wholesaler is the one who suf-
fers, in nearly every case.
The picture drawn by the New Yorker
is exaggerated but it goes to show how
easy it is to injure the credit Of acity
or state.

The Baby's Mother Was Dead.

1t was ON "a Pennsylvania railroad train
I coming north from Washington. All the
passengers but two in the sleeper had doz-
ed off. The exceptions were young man
and baby. The former was willing to
follow the example of the others, but the
laater objected in loud voice. It's cries
awoke the other passengers, and some
strong language was heard. The young
man got out of his berth and carried the
baby up and down the car trying to
soothe it. But the baby was ailing and
fretful, and its voice would not be stilled.
Finally gray headed man, who was evil
IDENTIFY an old traveller, stuck his head out
from behind the curtains and called to the
young man in rather sharp voice;
''See here, sir, why don't you take that
child to its mother. She wifi be able to
manage it much better than you. 1t evil
IDENTIFY wants its mother"
''Yes, that's it," echoed half dozen
other irritated passengers.
The young man continued to pace up
and down for a moment, then he said, in a
quiet, strained voice:
-.ItS mothoE is in tho Luggage car
There was an instantaneous hush for a
moment. Presently the grayheaded man
stuck his head out into the aisle again.
Let me take it for a while" he said
softly, perhaps l can quiet it.

Various men were waiting before the
Judge, as it is the custom at every term OF

that be might be let off.
''You can't get off without good ex-
cuse," said the judge.

But, your honor, | don't believe the

Achievements of Surgery.

At the Surgical Congress at Berlin,
Professor Gluck, of Berlin, gave (says Dali
zieD an exhibition showing most valua-
Bile advance in surgery, namely, the sue
cessful substitution of catgut, ivory, and
bone freed from chalk, for defects in
bones, muscles and nerve sinews The
juices Of the body are sucked up in the in-
serted material, thereby establishing the
junction of separated ends, without any
shortening of the part. He presented the
cases of patients in whom there had been
an insertion of from six to ten eentimeters
OF catgut to supply defects in the leaders
of the hands, to which complete mobility
had been restored. This case has previ
ously been impossible. In the case OF
another patient Professor Gluck removed
a tumor from the thigh causing a consid
cradle defect in the bone. He inserte,
ivory, and no shortening ensued. Ii
another case he removed large piece o
nerve in the groin and inserted catgut, an(
the functions remained completely salts

NeVada'S Salt Mountains.

The salt mountains located on the
banks of the Rio Virgin, an affluent of the
Colorado River in Lincoln county, Neb.,
cover an area OF twenty -fiye miles, extend
ing to within seven miles of the junction OF
that stream with the Colorado. The salt
they contain is pure and white and clearer
than glass, and it is said that piece seven
or eight inches thick is sometimes clear
enough to see through to read a newspa
per. Over the salt is layer of sands tone
from two to eight feet thick, and when
this is torn away the salt appears like a
huge snowdrilt. How deep it is has not
yet been ascertained, but single blast of
giant powder will blow out tons of It.
Under the cap rock have be en- discovered
charred wood and charcoal and mating
made of cedar bark. which the salt has
preserved, evidently the camp of prehis-
toric man.

Keeping at II.

1t Is a great mistake To suppose that the
best work of the world is done by people
OF great strength aud great opportunities.
1t is unquestionably an advantage to have
both these things, but neither of them,
quoting from the MdRgdctHr and Builder,
is a necessity tn man who has the spirit
and the pluck to achieve great results
Some of the greatest work of our time has
been done by men of physical feebleness.
No man has left a more destinet impress
ion of himself on this generation than
Charles Darwin. and there have been few
men who have had to struggle against
such prostrating i'll health. Darwin was
rarely able to work long at time. He ae-
complished his great work by having a
single aim, and putting every ounce of his
force and every hour of his time into the
task which he had set before him He
never scattered his energy, he never vast
ed an hour, and by steadily keeping at it,
in spite of continual i'll health and of long
intervals of semi invalidism he did a
great work, aud has left the impression
upon the world of man Of extraordinary
energy and working capacity. Success Is
rarely matter of accident; always mat
ter of character. The reason why so many
men fail is that so few men are willing to
pay the price of self denial and hard work
which success enacts-
