Posed as Eva Hamilton.
ON the Omaha Bee.

From the Omaha Bee.
A furry of excitement was created
at Butte, Mont, by the advent OF a
stylish woman from New York, claim
ing to be Eva Hamilton. She regis
tered at the leading hotel under the
name of Carrie E. Austin.
Her first entrance to the dining
room created sensation, and a Chi
cago drummer at once fell victim to
her fscinations, and the two were
soon such warm friends that they
started out together that night to
"take in" the town.
This was done in the most approved
style, all the popular resorts being
visited and champagne flowing freely,
the women footing the bills. 1t was
during this revel that she announced
to wondering crowd III 1t she was the
woman who caused the disgrace of
Robert Ray Hamilton, and displayed
from the court for alimony.
1t Is said that she also boasted of
having been on friendly terms with
the Prince of Wales, and she even
exhibited a pair of dismond-studded
garters, which she claimed were pre-
scented to her by him.
The nights pleasure ended in the
woman claiming that she had been
robbed. When she returned to the
hotel che explained to the proprietor
that she had left New York under
the lingering influence of wine par
ty and had only come to upon arriv-
ing at Butte, and avowed that she
was not loaded with wealth.
She said she would receive remit
lance from friend in New York in q
day or two, which favor she is still
awaiting. 1t turned out that she
wasn't the original siren, Eva.

HOLY DAYS.
This is The Hottest Week In The
Catholic Calendar. The Passion
h.d UnSunnnn4in., Ifn

And Resurrection, Etc.
Crowds Of ladies and gentlemen were
early on the streets to-day, vending their
way to the various Catholic churches.
One mass in each was said, at about $50
to $50 o'clock, and the services were very
solemn, being in commemoration OF Holy
or Maundy Thursday, called Maundy
from Mandatum, the first word in one OF
the services, and established as a feast
day by the early popes, and indeed by
Christ himself, who, when he washed MS
disciples feet, and celebrated the Last
Supper with them, said: This do in re-
membrance of me-" 1t is one OF the
hottest days in the calendar, no work
being done by the faithful and the day
being spent in solemn preparation, as OF
the Passion.
The holy oils used in the sacraments
are blessed, and two hosts are cOnSecrat-
ed, one taken by the priest, the other
placed in the 'holy chalice" and carried
and then deposited in the Holy Sepul-
chre" where it remains till Good Friday
where it is carried to the High Altar"

the passion" the ''Crucifixion, in mem
DRY of ChriSt's suffering and death on
Calvary. History of the church relates
that this took place about noon, and that
the Savior remained upon the cross until
6 o'clock when the body was taken down
and entombed, throughout Holy Saturday
and until about dawn of Sunday, when
the Resurrection" took place, and he
appeared to his beloved. Holy Saturday
is so named, because the holy fire and
holy water used in baptism are blessed,
and catechumens or candidates for the
ministry of the church are baptised. The
"paschal CANDLE" a symbol of Christ
risen from the dead, is also blessed and
the fire is kept burning until Pentecost.
