rAg OBSERVANCE OF EASTER.
The Discrepancy In Computing the Date
Was Not Corrected Until 1752-


AThe observance of Easter dates
back to about the year 6S, at which
time there was much contention among
the eastern and western churches as
to what day the festival should be OBJ
served" says a writer in the Ladies'
Home Journal. 1T was finally ordained
at the Council of Nice in the year 325
that it must be observed throughout
the Christian world on the same day.
This decision settled that Easter
Should be kept upon the Sunday first
after the fourteenth day of the first
Jewish month, but no general conclus-
ion was arrived at as to the cycle by
which the festival was to be regulated,
and some churches adopted one rule
and some another. This diversity of
usage was put an end to, and the Ro-
man rule making Easter the first Sun
day after the fourteenth day of the
calendar moon was established in Eng
land in 669. After nine centuries dis
crepancy in the keeping of Easter was
caused by the authorities of the Eng
lish Church declining to adopt the ref
ormation of the Gregorian calendar in
1882. The difference was settled in
1852 by the adoption of the rule which
makes Easter day always the first
Sunday after the full moon which APP
pears on or next after the 21st day of
March. If the full moon happens upon
Sunday, Easter is the Sunday after"

RUSHING TROOPS TO CUBA.
War Department Busy Moving Troops South
to Occupy Evacuated Towns.

Washington, Dec. 23.-There is every
evidence in the war department that
strenuous effort are making 60 put
enough American troops in Cuba to
meet any call on account OF the speedy
excavations of the Spanish garrisons.
All the transports available at Attain
tic ports are being prepared unGe'
rush orders for sailing South.
The Spanish are carrying out their
evacuation contract with unusual cei-
Gritty, and there is some question
whether American troops can be CON
centrated at certain points before the
Spaniiards leave. Meanwhile the Gu
bans are preparing for demonstrations
during evacuation week, and II is
thought very desirable to have an ade-
quate force on hand to prevent any
outbreak that would jeopardize the
American intent at the outset
There will be Is custom ports on the
Cuban coast to be turned over to
American control, and although some
of these doubtless will be closed, these
ports will require q large guard. Be
sides this, the department is having
quite a search for competent custom
men understanding Spanish to fill the
custom offices.
