FIRST RAINY EASTER.
The Festal Day Had Been
Clear for Ten Years.
SKIES AND WOMEN WEEP

Eastertide In Gloom Because There Was
No sunshine Religious Services Well
Attended hut the Inclement weather
Prevented the Usual Great Dress Pa
rade.
II was Easter yesterday but there was
no parade on the streets after church
time and no color anywhere but that Of
the dull, cold, misty fog The girls were
forced to smother themselves In mack
intoshes instead Of the finery which they
bad expected to wear. The music that
swelled from the organ and trained
throat WAS as sweet as ever. but there
was lack OF gladness In the air.
IL may have been the absence Of the
warm sunshine which is won't TO come
streaming In varlgAted tlnts through
the stained glass windows. II may have
been the absence OF those complacent aud
happy faces which are won't TO bespeak
feminine joy Of appearing in gorgeous
raiment alone 1t was probably com.
bination of all these distressing circum.
stances which sent the worshipers
skurrying off to their warm firesides in
stead Of indulging In thiei annual post
devotional procession.
Hard ON the Weather Man.
On the whole, the church attendance
was very good The disappointed half
Of the congregations bore up as cheer.
fully as they could under last winter
bonnets and speculRted as to whether
the styles would change during the en-
suing week. Not once during the entire
day was Old Sol permitted to peep out
through the veil of lowering clouds and
smile his customary Eastertide greeting
The rain that pattered down seemed
like the tears OF countless disappointed
maidens. Every girl in town united In
saying 1t was perfectly horrid of the
weather man.
