and memories Of our blessed dead are quick
ened. From its earliest history Omaha's
churches have reverently observed its re-
turn. The old churches of our fathers
echoed with praise, and devout worshipers
thronged her sanctuaries. Sermon and choir
lifted hearts from the dross of earthiness
to the kinship they hold with the skies. In
the ministry of the day, too, now as then,
Is found in the resurrection of the dead
one Of the great articles of Christian faith.
the best cure for heart sorrow. This IL
how Mr.. Fiske puts a thought of the day:
Whether II be in the individual or in the
race, we cannot tell just where the soul
comes in. A due heed to natures analogies,
however, Is helpful in this connection. The
maxim that nature makes no leaps is far
from true. Natures habit is to make
prodigious leaps. but only after long prep
~aration. Slowly rises the water in the
tank, inch by inch through many a weary
hour, until at length it overflows and
straightway vast systems of machinery are
awakened into rumbling life. Slowly grows
the eccentricity OF the ellipse as you shift
It's position In the cone, and still the nature
OF the curve is not essentially varied, when
suddenly, presto! one more little shift, and
the finite ellipse becomes an infinite hyper
bola hooking our feeble powers of concep-
tion as 1t speeds away on its everlasting
career. Perhaps in our ignorance such an

opens to let a procession Of purple-clad
ecclesiastics pass to the waters, then the
pilgrims close in again and station them
selves along the banks, eager and watchful.
And now, quite reverently, a jeweled cross
Is laid by the patriarch on the surface OF
the stream to bless it, and no sooner does
the sacred symbol touch the water than a
dive is made into it by the enthusiastic
crowd, which splashes and prays and wal
lows and dips-altogether a strange scene.
Such is the baptism, and the longer it lasts

Is now wrung out and slowed away to serve
as the cerecloth when the pilgrimage OF life

AS the traveller rides away the next day to
Jerusalem he will see these childlike peas
ants, bedraggled with mud and fatigued by
constant sleeplessness, plodding along
toward the Holy City, chanting and sing

Geld, its severity unsurpassed the entire
winter, and heavy SHOWS delayed the trains
on the Union Pacific fully five hours. When
Easter came in 1875 the river was not open
at Omaha, but in the Centennial year the
Missouri river swept away the riprapping
near Willow slough, four miles south OF
Council Bluffs, to the annoyance of the Bur
lington.
Even at Easter men are not all saints.
About thirty years ago a gentleman from
Oakland, Cal, on returning from the even
ing services at church lost $500 at brace
faro. 1t was the time Marshal Snowden had
the custody of the culprit who robbed the
ticket office Of the Omaha & Northwestern.
This was the season, too, that the civil
rights bill was tested in an Omaha barber
shop, when, instead of lather, white paint
was applied to the face of a negro who re-
quested a shave.
Twenty-four years ago Easter the steamer
General Terry touched at Omaha, ~enroute
from st. Louis for Fort Benton. 1t was a
brand new boat built at P%ittsburg, Penn, for
the upper Missouri river trade, at a cost of
SIS, 900, and was loaded with a cargo of
300 tons of merchandise. w. A. Burleigh
was captain. At the sam time the steamer
c. X. Peck reached here.
To the Eastertide of old Omaha belong
the visits of Colonel Sellers and of Thomas
Mast, who lectured on "Caricaturing' in
the old Academy of Music.

decaying courage, a dying faith as the flood
of light poured with heavenly brightness
from Christ's open sepulchre upon the
world early in the morning, when the Sab
bath was past, at the rising of the sun and
lit up the trembling soul of Mary Magda-
lene. 1t was the birth of a wonderful hope.
1t makes sorrow bearable. Through the
Christian centuries ever since the light
Christ brought with Him from the grave
has shined upon the earthly path of So
journers and pilgrims. Men have almost
lest the power to conceive correctly what
the darkness was before Christ died and
rose again to greet the world with the in
spring words of faith and hope. All hail!
In his aspirations after ideals forever be-
yond him in this life man has interpreted
his destiny as larger and higher than the
flower of the feld-in short, an immor-
tality. Though the solemn vision of Easter
may vanish and it's purest emotions may
seem only a dream when we go back to our
usual life, often because we forget that
other part of Christ's Easter message of
the ministry we owe our fellowmen, the
grand fact of personality makes man in a
high sense a child of the infinite Father, as
the old poet claimed, 1--WE are also His off
spring." and j~ustifes the courage of the
common human faith which disdains the
fate of the grass of the prairie that withers
and the beasts that perish. He puts be-
fore him the destiny my text gives him:

ing Of our Savior Jesus Christ, who hath
abolished death and hath brought life and

What Theodore Roosevelt SAYS

An article on "The Presidency" by
Theodore Roosevelt, published in the
November 9th issue of The Youths Com
panon. is of great public interest. When
the article was written Mr. Roosevelt
had not even been nominated for the
vice presidency. Nothing was then fur
ther from his thought than that he would
50 soon exercise the great powers which
are entrusted to the president of the
United States. In view of the circum-
stances the article possesses an impor-
lance more than ordinary. The number
of The Youths Companion containing it,
and all the subsequent issues of 1902, will
be sent free to new subscribers from the
time their subscription of Sl.75 is received
for the 1903 volume. The new subscriber
