Egg Rolling on Easter Monday.

The District of Columbia has n manner
of celebrating Easter that is peculiar to it
self. 1t is the egg rolling celebration that
occurs annually on the White lot" as the
grounds back of the presidential mansion
are called. Here, on Easter Monday, thou
sands of the city's children assemble rich
and poor, white and black, baskets of eggs
on their arms and joy in their hearts. intent
on picnic unknown elsewhere.
The usual method of cracking eggs,
p'ints' and butts" is not neglected, but
the feature of the days amusement is
rolling eggs down hill to try and crack the
eggs of adversaries. cunningly and tempt
ingly laid to invite the fusillade The Ma
rine band plays for the children the presi-

any, join in the sport. Nowhere else on
earth is there such an annual exhibition of
genuine democracy. and probably nowhere

THE ERANCE.
Dance Among Easter Eggs That Won e
Bride For Philibert of Savoy.

Bride For Philibert of Savoy.
On the wes.ern slope Of the Alps a curl
Gus Easter custom prevails. 1t is dan t
called the ''branle." On a level space COW
cred with sand 100 eggs are distributed,
and the young men and young women dance
among them.
1t is the unwritten law of the locality
that if they succeed in completing the
''branle" without breaking single egg
they become affianced, with or without the
consent of parents or guardians.
The royal Lady Marguerite of Flanders
was sojourning in the charming district of
Bresse. She occupied the ancient castle of
Brou, which was alive with the festivities
proper to the day and the occasion, for serfs
and mobiles, soldiers and priests, headed by
the fair Marguerite herself, had made them
selves ready to receive, with due pomp aT1
ceremony, P..ilihert, the handsome duke of
Savoy, who was in the neighborhood hunt
ing channels. and who had sent a courier
announcing LIS intention to visit the castle
and pay homage to the beautiful princess
of Austria
1t was Easter Monday. All the old men
shot at butts with their crossbows for
prizes, all the young, high and low, danced
with the village maideEs on the green. The
hundred eggs were scattered according to
CUSTOM and several couples had come to
grief and retired from the laughing ap-
plause of the oystanders to clean the broken
eggs from their shoes, when a bugle WAS
heard, and Philibert of Savoy, radiant with
youth and happiness, appeared on the scene.
Bending his knee before the noble chate-
laine, he besought her hospitality. AS tie
merry making grew more enthusiastic lie
proposed to his hostess TO tread I, measure
with him in the ''hranle''-the dance of the
eggs.
How beautiful says IN old French
writer, they looked as they stepped fer
ward hand III hand! Savoy and Austria
shouted the crowd. The dance was finished,
not an egg was broken. and the blIssicg
Marguerite allowed her hand to reina i
within that of Philibert as he said, LIT
us adopt the custom of Bresse.'" Thus
were they affianced, and their marriage took
place soon afterward

BRAVER THAN A SOLDIER.

Vow an EnSlishman In Russia Kissed Tive
Hundred Dirty NIujiks.
An Englishman in Russia, who was SUI
perintendent of an iron works, tells COM
zeal story of his experience at Easter:
For a week beforehand he says, they
are busy boiling and painting eggs, which
they are to present to one another with a
kiss. The moment the clock strikes 12 the
privilege or ,enance, as the case may be,
commences. Nobody then considers him
self insulted by the combiped offer of a kiss
and an egg.
I'm a few cases, it may be confessed, the
trouble is pleasure, but when it comes, as
it did to me, to long line of several hun
dred workmen-mostly engaged in charcoal
burning, in the stocking and poking of fires
and caimneys, and other deeds of darkness,
the poetical and sentimental view of the re-
igious custom is completely shut out and
supplanted by the intolerable annoyance.
lone may talk of the Balaklava charge,
the storming of the Redang, and such eX-
PLOTS; think IF the nerve that was required
to stand my Ground before a bearded and
vodka loving Mujik, with cinders in his
beard and ch-rcoal dust in the pores of his
skin, man who had been breaking cal
cined ore perhaps all night and looked like
the doubtful progeny of an African negro
or a red Indian in his warpaint,
Think of my horror of suspense while
one after ano' her whole regiment of such
smutty objects shuff1ed up to my place,
each drawing a dusty sleeve across Lis
sooty mouth. each diving to the bottom Of
his pocket for the painted egg, each taking
off his hat and calling me down to the pI
ishment with the Politest Of bows, TIE

ban, now chaplain at the Joliet peni-
Tertiary, for consul at Annaberg,
Germany. 1t is one of the best
places among the smaller consulates,
the salary being 81, 500 and the fees
nearly as much more. The present
consul is Daniel ID. Hubbard of Mass
achusetts, who was appointed four
years ago. The new consul is a Luth-
eran minister. and it was shortly
after his appointment by Governor
Altgeld as chaplain of the state peni-
Tertiary that a revelation was made
concerning the abuses which had
been practiced under the republican
management of that institution.
His candidacy was supported by ex-
Congressman Cable, and while the
memb ers of the congressional dele
CATION were not advised of it until
today's announcement, they unite in
declaring the appointment most sat
isfactory. 1t is quite probable, how
ever, that they would have been bet
ter pleased with the appointment of
one of their own candidates.
