Easter Eggs.

The use of eggs on Easter Day,
sometimes called Pasche, or paste
eggs, has come down to the present
time. Eggs were held by the
Egyptians as a sacred emblem of
the renovation of mankind after
the deluge. The Jews adopted
them to suit the circumstances of
their history as type Of their de-
parture from the land of Egypt.
They were also used in the feast of
the Passover.
Hyde, IN his description of ORR
entail sports. tells of one with eggs
among the Christians of Mesopota-
mia on Easter day and forty days
afterward: THE sport consists in
striking their eggs one against an
other, and the egg that first breaks
is won by the owner of the one that
struck it. Immediately another
egg is pitted against the winning
egg, and so on until the last egg
wins all the others which their
respective owners shall before have
won."
In Germany, sometimes instead
of eggs at Easter, an emblematic
print is occasionally presented.
One of these is preserved in the
print room of the British Museum.
Three hens are represented as up
holding a basket in which are placed
three eggs ornamented with repre-
sensations illustrative of the Resur-
rection; over the centre egg the
"Agnus DE-" with a chalice repre-
senting faith; the other eggs bear
ing the emblems of charity ard
hope.

The fact that a postmlstress was
sister-in-law to Abraham Lincoln
gives her no pull with this admin
istration, when the place is wanted
for q male worker. The Senate
refused to confirm the appointment
of Frank W. Joplin to succeed
Emily 7. Helm, at Elizabethtown,
KY, but Joplin has been reap

Our Wool

We do not wish to wound any
feelings, but it is in order to remark
that 164-cent wool in the seaboard
market is not what was promised by
the advocates of free wool. We are
tempted to remind further some of
our friends the enemy that the mar
ket for 26-cent wool seems to have
closed with the close of their disas-
trous campaign of 1894.

A Promise of Plenty.

Those districts of Nebraska which
suffered severely from drouth last
summer are now rejoicing in an
abundance of rain with a promise
of crops and returning prosperity.
People who complain of the dreari-
ness Of rainy days should put them
selves in the place of the farmers
and their families whose fields were
parched under a scorching sun and
rainless skies last year, and which
failed to produce as much grain as
was put into the ground in the plant
ing season. Many Nebraskans suf-
fered extremely during the winter
for want of the barest necessaries of
existence. Cases of starvation were
not rare and there would have been
more had not charitable people IN
other parts of the State and nation
concurred.

A Party of Theft and Fraud.

just stolen another State. The peo-
pie of Tennessee elected Republi-

nor last fall-elected him fairly and
unquestionably by plurality which,
though it was only seven hundred,
made his title to the Governorship
just as valid in the eyes of honorable
men as fit had been seventy thous-
and. The Democratic bosses of that
State, assisted and allotted by Tur-
ney, the Democratic Governor, who
was a candidate for reelection and
whom Evans defeated, had DELHI
erately defied the mandate of the
ballot box, disobeyed the express
provisions of the Constitution, and
forcibly robbed the Republican party
of Tennessee of it's Governor and
its right.

Evans lawful election. The most
