The following will be read with in
terest as well as information to many
of our readers. 1t taken from an ex-
change:
Easter is one of the movable feasts.
The prayer book gives the following
rule: "Easter day is always the first
Sunday after the full moon which hap
pens upon or next after the 2lst day of
March and if the full moon happens
upon Sunday Easter day is the Sun
day after" Consequently March % is
the earliest date upon which Easter
can fall and April IS the latest, this
year being April 5. This rule was
adopted at the Council of Nice, A. D.
325, as the observance Of the day had
always been upon the same day as the
Jewish Passover, which fell upon any
week day, whereas the fathers of the,
church held that as Sunday was the day
OF res direction the festival should be
held upon Sunday.

The Revival r1eetin@,

Interest still continues in the revi-
val meeting which is being conducted
by Evangelist Edmondson. The at
tendance is large the church being
crowded nightly. The afternoon SER
vice Of course is not as we'll attended.
BY special request most of the bust
ness houses of the town have been
closed during the day service. This is
commendable and we are quite sure
all who did so have made friends by
such action.
The service Sunday night was es-
pecially interesting. Before taking his
text Mr.. Edmondson stated why the
meeting had been moved from the Bap-
fist to the Methodist Episcopal church.
The tirstnamed was not large enough to
accommodate the congregations. Hav-
ing decided upon making a union meet
ing oft after considering two or three
other places-one of the warehouses
and Burwell Habit was decided by
those having the matter in charge to
accept the Methodist church which had
been offered as the most suitable place.
He called upon the pastors of the four
churches cooperating in the meeting
70 express themselves and say some
thing to their congregations along the
special line of work proposed. Rev.
7. M. Johnson, of the Methodist
Protestant church, spoke first. He was
followed by Rev. J. w. Willard, Of the
Baptist church, and he by Rev. M. D.
Hix, of the Methodist Episcopal. DR..
Morton, of the Presbyterian church,
closed these three minute talks. All
spoke with feeling and earnestness and
pleaded for united effort and earnest
work for the salvation of ouls.
Mr.. Edmondson preached a strong
gospel sermon and appealed to sinners
to forsake sin and accept Christ. He
breaches with power and zeal, and his
earnest labors in the Masters cause
prove that he is workman who need
eth not to be ashamed.
If sinners do not repent and turn
from the error of their ways it will not
be his fault. He has been faithful in
warning and entreaty, doing personal
work with individuals besides preaching
most excellent sermons to his congre-
cations. Mr.. Edmondson's labors have
been blessed in the spiritual upbuilding
and re-consecration of protesting Chris
tians and the conversion Of large num-
Der of persons.

They Are Shipped in Barrels and Looh
Like Brown Sugar.
Both in England and Germany ex-
periments have been made to preserve
eggs by drying them, and 20 supply
the market with this article as a sub
stitute for fresh eggs. Inasmuch a.
the product is somewhat cheaper than
fresh eggs at certain seasons of the
year, while its nourishing value is said
to be almost the same, the proceeding
deserves some attention. In the factory
which has recently begun operations at
PaSsau, Bavaria, the process is as fol-
lows: The eggs are first candled in
order to examine their quality. All
good eggs are thrown into very large,
rapidly rotating vat, in which the
centrifugal force separates the egg
shells from the yolk and the white.
The mixed fluid is taken out of this var
and dried by process in which COM
bined currents of air and heat are used.
After lis being thoroughly dried the
product is packed in barrels, the fin
ished article appearing like brown
sugar. Experiments made with pre-
served eggs, which had been shipped
twice across the equator, showed that
omelettes and other dishes could be
prepared tasting exactly as If made
of fresh eggs The Passsu factory
during the height of the season pre-
serves from 5000 10 10000 dozen eggs
per day. Several poultry farms have
been started in the neighborhood. bu:
even these are not sufficient to supply
the necessary quantity of fresh eggs
for the factory. and agents sent out by
them buy up sl the eggs for miles
around. The product of this factory
has recently appeared in the German
markets. and although the general
public views with some distrust the of.
fers of this substitute for fresh eggs,
the excellent quality of the preserves
has already made many CONVERTS

It may not be remembered that Colo
RADIO is a very early gold producing
territory. 1t will be recalled that the
Pixies Peak craze occurred in 1859, and
while it was a disastrous venture, TAX
en- all through, there was gold discover
ed. The Pixies Peak was so named as
that was the most famous land mark in
the territory and there were no towns in
the country at that time. II the affair
had been carried out on business prin-
ciples-but crazes never are-there
might have been at that time some
fairly prosperous mining done. 1t was
a craze Without sufficient reason
probably 80, 900 people came across the
plains, for what? Not to mine, but-to
hunt for mines-for gold. Tt was Pixies
Peak or bust and with most of them ii
was bust. Two men carried news OF
an Indian disaster together with ad-
verse accounts of the country TO in
coming immigrants and succeeded in
turning back many thousand from the
foolish adventure While of the many
who came most were disappointed; stili
there were some dold discoveries made
and some are mining here who came
with the Pixies Peakers nearly 40 years
ago. Gold has been mined in this state
ever since to some extent. But the
actual production of the last year or
two has given a new impetus to gold
mining. With silver up to, say dol
lar an ounce, Colorado would be easily
the first precious metal mining state
IN the Union. It will probably pro-
duce 20 millions in gold this year.
