Northumberland VI. Il. Church.

An immense audience filled the auditori-
UNI of the Meridian-street Methodist
Church yesterday morning. The Easter
services were made interesting, attended,
they were, by an appropriate selection
of Easter music and a lavish arrangement
of pretty flowers. The choir gallery and
altar was banked with palms and potted
plants, lilies and Easter flowers, while in
front of the great organ a large cloth field
of white was Illuminated with lilies.
Above the field was a pretty conception of
Immortality. fashioned after huge butter
fly and constructed with bright colored
flowers. The entire field was covered with
lilies and evergreens. which completed a
beautiful design. The music of the morn
ing had been specially arranged by Prof.
Ernestinoff, who was assisted in the rem
dition of the programme by Mrs. Walker,
Miss Messing and Mr.. Gilbert. The Open
ing selection, an organ solo, was given by
Prof. Charles Hansen. During the serv-
ices the quartet sang tie Deum,' in y fiat

Christ, he explained, is more than a mere
historical presence. Great teachers and
benefactors. in an important sense, live
among men after the natural life is ended,
but the truth they declare. the examples
they give are gradually merged into the
life of the world, and the personality fades

present everywhere in the Christian world.
His teaching is more inIelligently and

the glorious presence of Jesus. the pastor
had this TO say:
''7The Christ who forgave the SHINING
woman is to-day in our city reformatOry;
He who fed the multitude is present in our
city charities: He who treated the sick is
in our hospitals and flower missions; He
who raised the widows son is in our
homes for the aged. He transforms human
souls by His presence" The leading
thought of the discourse was that victories
over established and evil impulses and
secret sins are won in His name; that He Is
peculiarly present in the critical hours of
life when choices are made and refOrma-
tions are accomplished, and last, that He is
keeping His promise, Il am with you al

~ beautiful arrangement was the memorial
tablet Of DR.. Abbott, which was entirely
covered with cut flowers On the platform
and towering above the waving palms and
lilies stood an immense marble cross,
bearing a wreath of smilax and twined with
evergreens. The music rendered yesterday
was under the direction OF Mr. Daniel
Davis. of Terre Haute The opening selec-
ton was the offertory "Batiste played
by Mrs. w. b. Judah Angels Rolled the
Rock Away was ung by a chorus of
eighteen voices and was followed by the
solo Angels Song" by Miss Ida Sweenie.
After the discourse Mr.. Davis sang the
Resurrection with fine effect Rev. DR..
Coultas preached an eloquent and impress
sive sermon upon the topic Life Out of
Death
He recalled the thought that Good Fri
day and Easter Sunday the darkest day
and the brightest day, the worlds grief
and the worlds joy, are not far apart. In
human experience we have the day Of sad
parting and the day of happy meeting. The
struggle of the death throes and the
anthems of the eternal coronations are not
far apart. The pastor held that the heaven
ly life earth is reached through portals
of death, and that the same is true of the
heavenly life beyond the world. To-day the
seed it put into the ground and dies. To-
morrow we see the golden harvest on the
hillside of heaven.

Salina. Kan, Nov. 14-Three masked
men attempted to hold up the bank ut

or here. and one of their number met
meath In an unusually tragic manner.
lie was shot by the cashier of the
Dank, john Calenc, and when in n
dying condition was perforated with
bullets by Ills own comrades to save
themselves from exposure.
The men rode into town on fast
horses. They We're finely mounted and
heavily armed. Their masked faces
anu lying stceds attracted every
Dody's attention, but they wasted no
time In getting to work. They pulled
their horses up with a jerk in front
of the bank. and while one r0bber re-
manned seated, holding the brides of
the other two horses, in guarding ell
trance to the bank, his two cOmp.ln-
ions entered. A citizen who was
transacting business at the counter
quickly complied with their command
to throw up his hands. The cashier
was ordered - turn over what money
he had and to do it double quick. He
looked into the muZzle of both rcvol-
vels for Il moment and then reluctant
~ complied. 1t was but u few min-
utcs from the time the bandits turned
their horses into the business streets
before they were again mounted and
away with all the ready cash the
bank had.
The moment the robbers were out
of the building tie cashier secured his
gun. and. rushing to the door. opened
fire on them as they were galloping
away. The bullet from the cashiers
gun lodged IN the back Of one Of the
fleeing men. He staggered in his sad
die for a moment. but nerving himself,
he kept his seat and galloped OH. He
was too badly wounded. however, to
continue. and before he had gone q
quarter Of II mile his body swayed
to and fro, and finally he fell heavily
to the ground. His two comrades,
who. up to this time. had kept right
ahead, pulled their horses up and rode
up to the PROSTATE man, deliberately
fired several shots into his body and
dashed away. When picked up tile
deserted outlaw was dead. Nobody
knew him. and nothing to identify him
was on his person. Who his colmpal-
ions were is only conjecture. 1t is be-
lieved they are a scattered portion of
the Cook gang working their way
West after having been separated from
the main body and driven from their
haunts in the Indian territory. The
bank has offered reward of 5000
each for the capture of the robbers
dead or alive. The sheriffs of three
counties have organized forces which
are now in search of the bandits. The
amount of booty secured has not yet
been learned. The bank officials are
keeping that quiet.
