The Passover is the spring festival OF

is mathematical of the freedom of the

Of dolaIry . .
According to the Hebrew calendar
the Passover falls on the 14th day nf
the month OF Nj SAN at eve. In reality
the observance is comma nded by the
l5th day. but is begun on the evening
Of the 18th day of Nissan to commsmo-
rate the exceptional favor BESTOWED
upon the 1Sraelites at the time when the
frs born vas Siain throughout Egypt.
The festival is esse ntially one Of grea /
JOY. but in no respect is it q demorstra-
tive one, Tor Israel never forgets its
Sut!erlnSs just previous to its enamel
patton. The festival lasts seven days
during which those who observe it
strictly allow no heaven in the house
The substitute for the bread is the

The appointment OF General
Matthew C. Butler, OF this State
Major General Of volunteers by Pres
ident Mckinley, meets the hearty
approval of all our people irrespec-
tive of party affiliations. The ap-
pointment was certainly a master
stroke of diplomacy and its immediate
confirmation, without having had to
take the usual course, attests to the
great popularity Of the General ID
official circles at Washington, as well
as to a proper recognition Of his we'll
earned reputation as brave ana
gallant soldier, and an able and
courageous General. Magnetic IN

they did when they made the name
