To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal
Your suggestion in this mornings Journal

comes in power to see that the commercial
trusts be driven out of existence, is heartily
concurred in by me- and, L think by every

trust, the Dressed Beef trust, or any
other trust now existing in our country.

and have the same effect. viz: to increase
the price of the commodity. and. as occa-

they are this much worse; they carry out
their measures by force, il, when King
Sovereign orders them to quit work. and
any needy, honest laborer who hasn't sur
rendered his bodily liberty and conscience
one of their places, he is denounced as
a ''scdb' and has no rights. except the
right to stop brickbats. and when Uncle
Sam lays his hand on them and makes
them quit burning cars and tearing up

ears OF Captain Quigley that gambling was
going on in a room over the saloon of Ed
Bernauer, saloon keeper at 400 Virginia

officers and investigated. When he opened
the door he was surprised TO find that q

men were crowded into the little room
like ears in a corncrib. The captain lined

An Egyptian Bride.

At the marriage in Egypt Of Princess
Minet Hanen, sister OF the Khedive, the
bride came in preceded by woman mu-
stefan all dressed in white satin. She
was supported by two bridesmaids. Her
gown was Of white satin, but one could
scarcely see the material because of the
heavy gold embroidery. Her neck and
arms we're simply covered with diamonds
and on her head she wore high crown
of precious stones, to which was attached
her veil of silk and gold. On either side
of her head were ornaments Of gold and
jewels, with threads of gold reaching to
the ground, of such weight that the
bridesmaids had to carry them. She was
one OF the most beautiful women ever
seen, and when she was seated on the
throne it was picture. She and her
surroundings were beautiful beyond de-
scription. When she retired the Khedive
stood on the throne and threw newly
coined money among the ladies for luck.

lusterless silk, a bodice covered with
dotted black net and big sleeves covered
also with net. Big sleeves look somehow
incongruous with the idea OF bitter grief,

than note the incongruity, for the young

Easter.

1t is an oft-told story which will consti-
tute the theme of Christian song and pre-
cept Sunday, and yet story which is
ever new. For practically nineteen hun
dred and sixty years the Christian
church, or at least large part of it, has
annually rehearsed the wonderful tale of
the Resurrection, and instead of losing its
interest 1t is listened to as attentively
and celebrated as fervently as if the oc-
currence were one of yesterday. Nor 10
this all. There is hardly corner OF the
globe and scarcely known tongue in
which that mighty event will not be told
over again and commemorated with every
outward token OF gratitude and rejoicing,
OF no other religious faith ever professed
by the children Of men could the same
thing ever have been affirmed.
Agnostics, infdels and skeptics may
scoff at the Resurrection as a physical
impossibility or, like Renan, attempt to
square it with physical laws and the liza
bility of human nature to deception of
the senses, but of its moral effects upon
subsequent ages there can be no question
II the Resurrection be a fable it is a
splendid fable and one which mankind
may well cherish. No scientific truth
ever discovered and no physical fact ever

to make a speedy fight to Canada, the
Court granted him ten days in which to

prospect Of crossing the line in time.

The Laws Bener,cence.

Judge Grosscup, OF Chicago, has hand
ed down an important decision. 1t is to
the effect that an American citizen who
commits in this country an offense which
is not extraditable and succeeds in get
ting to Canada has rights which must be
held most sacred. Mr.. Sydney A. Slo-
cum, of Chicago, had taken up his resi-.
dence In Canada under these circum-
stancesnend his bondsmen, who sought
to cruelty deliver him up to the law, were
powerless to reach him by legal and hon.
orab!e means. So they had to resort to
trickery and lured him over the border
under some ingenious pretext. and then
caused his arrest and incarceration. Mr..
Slocum applied for writ of habeas cor
pus and Judge Grosscup released him,
ruling that the man had been deceived
and unfairly dealt with. yen-banded

be allowed reasonable time in which to

EASTER CAROLS.

And as our Lord and Saviour,
Came forth from out the tomb,
And walking in the gardens shade,
Dispelled its sombre gloom,
So now we feel His presence
And still we hear His voice,
Who said to Mary, ''Do not fear"
Behold me and rejoice.
Yea, Christ the Lord is risen,
Oh grace and truth Divine,
Enfold US in thy presence,
Within our spirits shine.
Uphold, and cheer and guide us
That we may truly say,
To us the Lord is risen indeed.
This glorious Easter Day.

A witty Judge.

Aaron Anderson, an English judge,
whose keen sense of humor enlivened
the monotonous dullness OF the court,
was never at a loss for suitable reply to
the impudent remarks OF convicted pris-
oners.
A prisoner, convicted OF stealing a saw,
said he had taken the instrument in a
joke. "How far did you carry IL" asked
Anderson. 1.-TWO miles, my lord" an
swered the prisoner.
"Ahl that's carrying joke too far
two years at bard labor!" replied the
judge.
A man, convicted of swindling, was
asked by the clerk why sentence should
not be passed upon him.

If am not"

then in matter-of-fact voice replied

not interposed, the sentence OF the court
is that you be transported for twenty
years."

his attendance on the ground that he
was "deaf on one side," and could only

comfortable attitude.
