WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE feature
of the night session Of the convention
OF the Southern Baptists was the report
OF the committee on papal fields, subs
mitted by Rev. Sproles, of Mississippi.
The report stated that although the
work In Italy had met with great oppo-
sition from the Catholic church, consid-
cradle progress had been made, and that
the work In Brazil had been hindered
BY political disturbances and the organ
ization Of the clergy. In Mexico 1t had
been less difficult. Rev. j. D. Hiden,
OF Virginia, made a very temperate ad-
dress on the report, deprecatiug assaults
on Catholics.
Rev. oranfeld, of Texas, made a
most Violent and sensational denuncia-
ton OF Catholicism. He declared that
the iron hand af the Pope gripped alike
America, Spain and Brazil. II this
speech were to be his last he said he
would consider IL noble heritage for
his children that he had said 10 believed
komanism was the Grch enemy OF en-
lightment and freedom. A chorus of
"Amens" followed with renewals when
he stated that Catholicism was pagan.

its hand In the public treasury and had

ORIGIN OF THE EASTER EGG.-The
origin of the use of the Easter egg is
thought to have been symboliziug the
resurrection. The use of the egg as
symbolical of renewed life can be traced
back much further than the early
church, however. 1t has been connect
ed with the customs of the ancient
Egyptians, Persians, Greeks and
Romans, and Schwartz says it was Gus
tomary among the Parsees to distribute
red eggs at their spring festival.
Many of the popular observances con-
nected with Easter are of pagan origin,
and traceable to the feast of the Saxon
diety Eastre, and the Anglo-Sa 1on
name of April was Easter month. The
celebration of Easter was marked by
the kindling of bon6res and other rites.

the awakening of nature Tom the
death of winter was easily transformed
into Joy at the rising of the Sun OF
Righteousness and at the resurrection
of Christ from the grave. The custom
of lighting bonfres was superseded by
the lighting of immense church tapers,
some of them weighing 800 pounds.
