and away sped one hundred nimble

The little girls got tired first. but the

and the children gathered about the

Dicks was the last find, and as he
was the biggest boy there he counted
to see II there were really fifty eggs.
"Why. there's fifty-one!" exclaimed
he. and sure enough n pure white egg

An Easter Scramble.

Easter Monday is the great carnival
OF the year at Hallaton. England. Then
the Unreasonable and ottle-kicking
take place. In remote times, says the
author of "Old English Customs" a
piece Of land was bequeathed to the
rector. on condition that he and his
successors should provide annually
two hare-pies. n quantity Of ale and
two dozen penny loaves to be scram-
bled for on Easter Monday at the ris-
ing ground called Hare-pie Bank, a
quarter OF n mile south OF the village.
Usually pies Of mutton. veal and bacon
are substituted for the hare.
The procession Is headed by two
men, who carry two sacks containing
the pies. After them come three men
abreast. each bearing aloft a bottle.
Two of these are filed with beer; they
are wooden bottles. iron-hooped. with
n hole from which to drink. The third
bottle is dummy. and, OF course. emp
ty. Occasionally hare Is carried in
a sitting posture, mounted on the top
OF pole.
The procession increases greatly in
numbers as it approaches. Hare-pin
Bank. where the pies, which are al
ready cut up. are pitched out OF tho
sack and scrambled for. The specta-
tors amuse themselves by throwing the
contents Of the pies at each other.
Then follows the Hallaton bottle kick
ing.
One OF the large bottles containing
ale is thrown into the circular hollow
on the mound, and the Melbourne
men" try 10 wrest it from the Halla-
tonian grasp. A fierce contest then en-
sues. in comparison with which foot
ball scrimmage is mere child's play.
The Hallatonians strive to kick the
bottle to their boundary-line over tho
brook adjoining the village, while their
opponents endeavor to convey IL to-
ward the melbourne boundary. The
victors Of course claim tho contents of
tht bottle.
Tie dummy" Is then fought for with
unabated zest, for the Hallaton people
boast that this has never been wrested
from them. The third bottle is taken
in triumph to the market-cross, and
its contents drunk with accustomed
honors. The bottles are carefully kent,
and those now in use have done duty
for more than thirty years.

An Easter song.
Every face is beaming,
Every step is light.
All the world is beautiful
From merry morn till night.
The little streams are dancing
and flashing. Just for fun.
And joyfully to meet the sea.
The mighty rivers run.
And twice ten thousand flowers.
And twice ten thousand more.
Are waking In the lonesome woods
And by the cottage door.
To count the Easter lilies

Can hope to do the long day through
How hard soccer we try.
Every face is beamins.
Every step is light.
For o'er the threshold Easter slipped
At waning of the night.
And little birds are singing
Like mad for Joy of life.
And all the hours. In sun and showers.
with brimming Joy are rife.
Uplift the songs Of Easter.
Let none today be still.
When this great world is like a cup
That flowers overfill,
When blossoms deck the orchard.
And boughs are pink and white.
And winds so by. like wings that fly.
From merry morn till night.

I'VE the committee appointed by

the death of Hon. VIM. G.. Ramsey
the Judge and presiding member of

the youngest County Judge in the
State he ruled as lone of old" and

so vividly typified his character as
the perfect embodiment of honor. He
was at all times watchful of the
county's interest, guarding well the
revenue of the county, Yet merciful
to the unfortunate poor that is al

with pride, for to see him while re-
spectful to those who sought to give

we had lived in happy anticipation
that with him presiding over the

that our terms in office would have

Therefore, be ii resolved, that we,
as members of the Bath County Fis-
cal Court, do deeply deplore the death
of the Judge of our COurt-Wm. q.

association as the chief member of
our Court, and the want of his CON-
