ORIGIN
OF EASTER.

Eastertide, the oldest church festival
comes down to us from the ancient
Hebrews. With them, however, the
time was not associated with the death
and resurrection Of Christ, but with
the season Of the year when the earth
puts forth it's freshest blossoms and
the revivificatiOn Of nature-the spring
ing forth Of life in the spring.
1t is from this that the Easter egg
custom springs, and centuries ago, even
before the birth Of Christ, colored eggs
were given and received by celebrants
Of the feast. The egg for all time has
been regarded as symbOlical of the
spring, when earth receives from ma
ture it's new life Not only the ancient
Hebrews, but the ancient Persians, en-
pIoyed the colored eggs in their cele-
brations of the feast of the solar new
year in March.
With the Hebrews the festival was
called Pasch, and the name still lives,
with slight alterations, among many
nations. The French call the festival
Paques; the Dutch term 1t Paschen, the
Danes, Paaske, and the Swedes, Pask
In the early days of Christianity the
influence of the Jewish PaSch upon the
holy day commemorating the Staying
of Christ and His resurrection was such
that 1t created many bitter discussions
between the Western and Eastern
churches. Finally the discussions as
sumed such a threatening aspect that
Polycrates, bishop Of Ephesus, appealed
to Victor, bishop Of Rome, asking for
a general council to decide the much
vexed question.
Accordingly, councils met In all the
countries, as we'll as Rome, but, alas,
for visions Of harmony, they could not
agree. They finally decided to recognize
the day as their respective fathers be-
fore them had done, and no sect should
censure the other for a difference Of
opinion.
Many warm and even bitter discus
sions still continued on the subject of
Easter celebrations, and it finally led to
the great emperor, Constantine, in 325.
issuing an order for the dispute to be
settled by the council of Nice. 1t was
the momentous theme of the day. In
obedience to royal command, 31S bish-
ops and some 1000 inferior clerics as
sembled at Nice in Bithynia.
The first sessions met in the church,
and as the council continued its work
the place of meeting was transferred
to the imperial palace, where special
apartments were reserved for this au-
gust body. The main trouble was be-
tween the Jewish Christians and the
Gentle Christians.
On the fourteenth day Of the first
lunar month the Jews observed with
all the solemnity and regard for the
Mosaic law the Feast Of the Passover
thus they celebrated the death OF
Christ as represented by the Paschal

WOMEN WITH FADS.
The CuriOsities Owned by Some
Rich Women Collectors.

Mrs. Bradley Martins collection of curious
watches is numerous and fabulously expen-
sive. Among its gems is a diamond coronet,
with watch pendant, which was at one time
the property of royalty. Another old piece is
a gold enameled apricot which on examina-
ton proves to be watch. Miss Salie Coop
er Hewitt has wonderful collection of ex-
penslve curios-snuffboXes, patchboxes, etuis
rings and watches. The latter are mostly
samples of English and French art, says the
New York Herald.
Mrs. Pierpont Morgan has a collection Of
Louis XII. watches; one case alone con-
talns thirty-fve, all exactly alike. In an
other case she keeps dozen chatelaine
watches, also of the Louis XII. period
The gem Of the third case is an English
watch OF the eighteenth century, decorated
with an enameled miniature.
Mrs. Peter Barlow's collection contains a
watch once the property of Nine. de Monte
span, also one which once belonged to Marie
Antoinette: 1t is of blue enamel, with "a
wreath of pearls. Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs
has rare collection Of brooch and chate-
ia1ne watches, as we'll as some so large that
they could be hung up as clocks These
or them exceedingly beautiful and artistic
Another ponderous timepiece Is in the col
lection of Mrs. Johnson. 1t formerly be-
ionged to Sir Joshua Reynolds, and It is said
it was~hi constant companion for years. up
to the time of his death.
Mrs. Astor's cases contain several brace
let's set with watches. All Of them are heav-
Ily Jeweled but none have ever been worn
by their fair owner. dainty and beauti-
ful conceit is the wild rose chatelain
watch which belongs to Miss Elsie Clews.
The watch itself, a tiny affair, is Enclosed
in the petals of a rose made of enameled
god, the leaves, stem and one bud glitter
with pearls, rubies and diamonds
A notable curiosity in the collection of
Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt is watch repre-
senting pelican feeding three of its young.
Another is tulip-shaped, with leaves; still
another is in the form of an Egyptian harp
surmounted by crown made of rose da-
monds. She also has watch shaped like a
guitar. enameied in blue, with yellow stripes
Miss Hunter has a lizard watch glittering
with emeralds and diamonds. Another is a
frog of green-enameled gold with a tiny
watch in its back and ewes of elitterin9
moOnstones.

Engineering Feat in

while the crest CT a watershed is not. The
crest of the continental divide rises into
peaks 1900 feet high and descends into
passes as low as 10000 feet. 1t thus hap
pens that, while some of the tributaries of
the Grande have their rise at elevation of
LOCO feet or more, the Lulu pass on the
continental divide is only 10000 feet above
sea level 1t is thus clear that If the river
can be tapped at any elevation considerably
above the height of the Lulu pass the waters
can be led craftily along in side-hill bitches
and ultimately across the divide and down
the eastern slope of the range. This is what
it is proposed to do the surveys have already
been made and the work will probably be
undertaken next summer
What 1T is planned to do with the waters
of the Grande has already been done with
the waters of the Laramie river, which have
been taken across the watershed of the Med
icne Bow range and turned into Chambers
lake. from which they pass down to the arabic
lands of the Poudre valley. This enterprise
