splendid prelude, then they changed
to simple thread of music, the har-

8. Then went in also that other disciple.
which came first to the sepulcher, and he
saw. and believed.
9. For as vet they knew not the Scrip
ture, that he must rise again from the dead
10. Then the disciples went away again
unto their own home.
II. But Mary stood without at the sepuI-
cher weeping; and as she wept. she stopped
down, and looked into the sepulcher.
Il And seeth two angels in white Sit
ting, the one at the head, and the other at
the feet. where the body OF Jesus had
lain.
L. And they say unto her: Woman, why
Veepest thou? She saith unto them: Be-
cause they have taken away my Lord, and
know not where they have lain Him.
Il. AND when she had thus said she
turned herself back, and saw Jesus stand
Ing, and knew not that 1t was Jesus.
Is Jesus saith unto her: Woman, why
weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She,
supposing him to be the gardener, saith
unto Him: Sir, If thou hath borne Him
hence, tell me where thou has laid Him,
and will take Him away.
16. Jesus saith unto her: Mary. She
turned herself, and saith unto Him, Rab-

II. Jesus saith unto her: Touch me not;

but go to my brethren, and say unto them:
1 ascend unto my Father, and your Fa-

THE FIRST EASTER.
With US Easter is joyful day. The
death of winter is giving place to the
life of spring. The buried flowers are
beginning to peep forth again from
their woodland graves. Everything is
speaking of resurrection. Man catches
the inspiration of the season, and feels
new life coursing through his veins.
But the first Easter morning was sad,
though it was not long before it be-
came deliriously joyful. Christ was in
the tomb, and oh, what hopes lay
buried with Him! The proof that He
was risen not only comforted the dis
ciples then, but has gladdened believ-
ers ever since, inasmuch as it shows
not only that we have an immortal
Saviour, but that we also are immor-
tai.

Seattle, April 17.-According to the
plans of the Land, Credit & Mortgage

The distance to be covered by the rail-
way is 400 miles. It will provide an
all-American route to the Klondike.
1t is the intention of the company to
begin operations at several points along
the route in order to facilitate and
hasten construction.
The promoters of the enterprise be-
lieve that it promises to be one of the
most profitable that can be undertaken
in the world today by capital such as
they control. The route leads through
the Copper river country, the Tanana
district and many other promising min
ing localities. The harbor at Valdes is
one of the few really good ones in

New York, April 12.-Miss Ellen M

the Deutschland from Southanp pten
Miss Stone said the brigands were not
SO fierce as might have been imagined
They said many insulting things, bat
never struck or beat either her or he,
companion, Nine. Tsilka.
"Several reports have been printed
which stated that Nine. Tsilka had
been held for ransom by our captors, -
said Miss Stone, "but it is mistake
l was the one they wanted, and they
always take a married lady to chaper-
one single one, no matter how old the
latter may be.
Seven weeks before we were released
a baby was born to Nine. Tsilka. The
brigands had by this time become SO
insulting and cruel in their remarks
that it was becoming unbearable. The
appearance of the baby stopped all this,
for the reason that the brigands of Tur-
key believe that curse will settle on
one of them if they do harm to a child
or its mother. Our treatment after the
birth OF the baby was excellent. We
began to get better food, although 1
must admit that it was not very good
and the sneering remarks stopped"
Miss Stone will go at once to Chelsea.
Mass, to see her mother, who is more
than, 80 years old.

WANTS FEDERAL AID,
Honolulu will Send Delegate to Present Its

Honolulu, April 10, via San Fran

tion have each held meetings to discuss
the Pacific cable proposition and the
matter of securing federal aid in paw
ing the heavy Chinatown FIRE claims.

The associations decided to send a dele
gate to Washington to present their
views, and have decided upon JIG.
Pratt, member of the court of China
town fire commissioners, who will leave
at once.
The cable proposition is one that
greotly interests all here, and there is
much anxiety to see work started on
the proejct. The chamber of commerce
wants the first landing to be made on
the island of Hawaii, and the line con-
tlnued through Maui and Molokai to
Honolulu. This would form inter-
island connections, which the wireless
system has SO far failed to accomplish.
Delegate Pratt will present this propo-
sltlon to the company.

HITCH IN NEGOTIATIONS,
Beers Request for An Armistics Refused by
British Government.

London, April 1.-THE Daily Mail
says it understands serious hitch has
occurred in the peace negotiations in
South Africa. The cabinet has decided
to refuse strongly worded request from
the Boer leaders at Pretoria for an
armistice pending the negotiations.
This alone is not likely to cause the
Beers to withdraw from the conference,
says the Daily Mail, but what threat
ems to stop the negotiations is the fact
that the government declines to place
the Cape rebels on the same footing as
the burghers with respect to amnesty
and is not inclined to withdraw the
banishment proclamation. These feat
ures are regarded by the Beers as two
cardinal principles in the irreducible
minimum of terms which Lord Milner
went to Pretoria to ascertain and in
return for which the Beers agree to the
loss of independence and a general sur
render.

SOUTH CHICAGO FIREBuG.
Seventeen Ineendiary Fires were Started Dur.
ing One Night

Chicago, April 15.-After extinguish
ing 10 fires yesterday, most of them
close together, and apparently of in.
cendiary origin, the fremen of South
Chicago at daybreak today were called
upon to contend.Rith the most serious
of the long string of blazes.
The first of this Mornings fires con.
sumed barn containing several horses.
St. Patrick's church came next, and
was destroyed before the iremen could
reach it. Scarcely had they reached
the church when they were recalled to
fight dangerous looking fire at Will
lard Sons bell forge works. After a
hard fight here the flames were checked.
Meanwhile the warehouse of the Wash
ington Ice Company had caught fire,
and before the flames were eubdued
5000 damage Ehad been done. The
Calumet theater came next, sustaining
SIC, 900 damage before the fire was ex-
tinguished. A four story structure,
having feed store on the ground floor,
and dwellings above, was discovered to
be burning before the theater fire was
put out. Two families escaped in
their night clothes. The building was
destroyed. Meanwhile a saloon had
burned down.
The total loss of this mornings fires
is put at $4,000. AS the buildings
were not near each other, the fremen
declare that the fires were the work of
an incendiary. The people of South
Chicago were greatly alarmed by the
rapid work of the frebug.
The financial loss in the fires yester-
day amounted to 100000. Evidence
of incendiarism was so convincing.
however, that citizens joined the police
in patrolling the streets in an effort to
guard property and capture the incen-
diary or incendiaries. In spite of the
extra precautions, however, today's
fires were started. Citizens were be-
at the attack, and daylight
was welcomed with great relief.
