HYDE PARK CHICAGO.

Regardless of the lack Of prosperity,
Chioago's Easter brought with it the
gayest day that has been seen here for
years. The head gear of the ladies
seemed to be one enormous hot house:
it was simply impossible to stand be-
hind two of them and see any ways
beyond them up or down the streets.
The bevy OF pretty Misses that cele-
brated the day was something more
then marvellous: our boys also made q
bright showing. All the churches
were crowded, each trying to out do
the other in it's decorations. Hyde
Park was not quite so well represented
in the Easter swcldom. Possiable the
boys have seen the nonsense of going
hungry two or three weeks merely to
dress up for one day.

honors in the world Of Inventions. Mr..

His company has been Incorporated
with capital stock of Twenty-Five
thousand dollars, comprising three 9TH

white. Mr.. Daniels claims to have
contracts with all of our leading rail
roads and foundries here and the Bald

HOW EASTER WAS
OBSERVED.
Fine Music With Elab-
crate Program

Not since the revival of nature from
the frozen bonds of winter, has the
sun rose more brighter, shedding fourth
it's brightest and fairest rays on that
beautiful Easter morn as any one could
wish to see. This Easter Sunday was
celebrated by all the churches in the
City. In this celebration there is no
dispute as to denomination or creed,
the resurrection has merged all into
the one belief in the future life, and
the everlasting happiness which the
crucifed Savior has perchased with
his own blood.

much refinement and study. For
