christmas comes but once year."
and so of Easter. 1t is doubtful which
Of the two festivals appeals most joy
ously to the average Christian. He en-
ters upon the festivities of the natal day
of Christ cheered by the glad conscious
ness that his Redeemer at last liveth.
Over great sections OF earth his appetite
is stimulated, when he hies him to the
festive board, by an air which is electric
and crystalized. In the Christmas fes-
tivities the assuring and alluring visions
of spiritual veal are supplemented and
intensified by the permitted delights of
the flesh. No period of self-denial or
modification leads up to the smoking
board and the wassail cup. In the case
of Easter all this is different. In most
Christian diapensations the sinner is
supposed to have accompanied his
Savior through his painful fast and
agony and through all the travail cul-
minating in his crucifixion. He begins
the ordeal by sprinkling ashes on his
forehead. He mortiies his flesh by fast
ing and prayer. The rythm of the
tenebra is supposed to attune his
soul to melancholy. Death and the
tomb are the subjects of his meditations,
and his spirit is triste. And presto |!
change, and Easter. HIS Savior is risen
from the tomb and the powers of earth
and the myrmidons of hell are van
quished. Death has had no sting and
the grave no terrors. And now sits the
Christian down to crown the exuitation
of his soul by the triumphs of the flesh.
The rich meats which he has forboine
now smoke on his board in profusion.
He realizes once again that he has a
palate. His long period of abstinence
being over. Lucullus himself never en-
joyed the good things of this world with
more unrestrained gusto. He has
earned his feast and he partakes OF it
with the knowledge that he is commem-
Grating certainly the second most joyful
event in the history of his religion.
And such today will be the picture pre-
sented over the entire globe, wherever
Christianity prevails, with the excep-
ton that the differences between the
Julian and the Greek calendar will
make the celebration of Easter fall on
different days. Even the agnostic who
is lover of good cheer will welcome the
recurrence of such gladstone holidays.

TIE present is the era of sprin

The present is the era of spring
poetry. The infammabe souls of in
genuous youths and even the rock-rib-
bed constitutions of more mature man
hood at this season of the year sink into
the melting mood. What is known as
the divine affiatus has full sway. The
result ia that tine major portion of the
time of the literary editor of any paper
is devoted to the poet OF the spring tide.
His lucubrations embrace all conceiva-
BILE ranges, but his soul generally lightly
turns to thoughts of love. 1t is impos-
sible to restrain his fiery Pegasus.
Though his steed may have been lassoed
a score of times and brought to earth
to be less metaphorical, though his con-
tributions may have found their way
into the EDITORS waste basket - he
mounts his poetical steed again with
never failing regularity. Though of
tender consistency spiritually, physi-
cally his bones are tough as steel. Un-
like the burnt child, he does not dread
the fire. 1t is perhaps fortunate for the
literary editor that this paroxysm is of
short duration. 1t is an accompaniment
of the spring fever, though. in his case,
asin the other, the attack is happily OF
short duration. He can't be cured, and
20 must e'en be endured.

nal HOtlce Vi Glc CWcHIletu anniversary
Of the Evening Express, which occurred
day before yesterday. That journal has
always been an influence for good in
Los Angeles. We are pleased to see in
its columns elements OF decided pros
perity. 1t has been leading factor in
the development of Los Angeles, and
merits all the fair fortune that may ac-
crue to it. The Messrs. Osborne &
Cleveland purchased it from the Messrs.
Ayers & Lynch some seven years ago,
and subsequently Mr.. j. Mills Davies
was associated with these enterprising
gentlemen. In it's modest review of its
4.a raar 1a.--srg- -vfie past twcnvy yoa.s sA.o
Express has no hesitation in predicting
that 1el1 will see it alive and kicking.
We have no doubt of it, and we see no
reason to doubt but that century later
will witness the same result. The writer
had one agonizing experience of his life.
His senior partner had been appointed
state printer, and was obliged to
remove to Sacramento. For quite
a considerable time-it seemed centu-
ries-the Writer was consequently
obliged to run two daily newspapers
the HERALD and Express. He believes
he esowed during that time the seeds of
premature age. He not only sold the
Express gladly to the Messrs. Osborne
& Cleyel lind, but his relief was so great
in getting rid of the financial and other
responsibilities Of that concern that he
has watched their progress ever since
with the livelisst satisfaction. May the
wing of their prosperity never moult a
feather, to parhphrase the words of the
immortal Dick Swiveler.

The farmers up about Burbank have
no reason to complain of the remissness

A CLOUDY TRANSACTION.
The Rev. Mr.. Fleming Kicks Down 9
Door.

Rev. Samuel Fleming now wants the
furniture which is in his wife's house at
South Pasadena. In fact Mrs. Fleming
claims the furniture, which, it is said,
was purchased with her money, except
a grand piano, the Rev. Samuel's we'd
ding present to her. He now claims
that he sold the furniture to man in
this city named Cloud, who on Thurs
day, went and attempted to take the
stuff, but was hustled out of the house
by attorney Rossiter. He returned,
however, with the reverend gentleman,
who is accused of trying to rape his
cook, and the latter kicked the door in,
and Mr.. Rossiter, in the face of superior
numbers, retired in good order.

in which he declared in favor of placing the

TIE NEGRO In AFRICA.

A book has recently been written 10y an
English missionary who has resided for many
years in Uganda, one of the Kingdoms Of
Equatorial Africa. in which he gives q de
tailed account Of the various atrocities which
he has witnessed in that region. This ao-
count is not written with the slightest inten-
ton of holding the barba1ans Of Uganda up
10 the exccration of civilized peoples, but
rather for the purpose of showing those who
are interested in the improvement of the
African negroes how numerous are the Difficult
ties IN the way of their conversion and how
strenuous and persistent must be the efforts
to overcome these difficulties if they are TO be
overcome at al.
The picture which Mr.. Mckay. the mission
airy referred to, has drawn in his book Of the
social and moral condition of the inhabitants OF
Uganda, Representative African community is
most appalling their debasement being even
beyond the power of the imagination Of a civil
Mcpherson TO grasp. in its most frightful fea.
lures All that the most bestial passions can do.
all that the most grovelling and bloody SUPER
stition can work. all that the most murlerous,
fcrocious. cruel and unjust instincts can carry
ont is to be observed in the Kingdom Of
Uganda. shaping the daily life of its people,
and sinking them TO point far lower than
any which ordinary animals have ever reach
ed. The scenes described are sickening in
their character. and can hardly be followed
without feeling Of physical nausea
That the account which Mr. Mckay has
given is not exaggerated is proven not only
by the verbal testimony of other witnesses
who have reported their observations, but
also by the travels of number of men who
have published in book form their impress
sions of the people and country of Uganda.
Notable among these is Colonel Challe Long,
who in his narrative of his journey in that
kingdom mentions, incidentally, that on the
occasion of his visit 10 its king dozen or
more unfortunate subjects were decapitated
before his eyes in order TO do honor 20 his
presence
All the accounts which we have from Eque-
torial Africa go TO show the unspeakable de.
pravity Of the negroes Of that extremely fertile
and most beautiful section Of the globe. And
yet there are religious societies In the North.
ern States to-day, which rarely adjourn their
conventions without passing resolutions do.
