HOW EASTER IS OBSERVED
BY THE MORAVIANS OF SALEM
The Same Service and the Same Songs That Were
First Heard in Saxony More Than
Years Ago.

Durham correspondent of the New
York Times, writes a long interesting
story of the Moravians at Salem. He
writes of the observance of Easter by the
Moravians where this glad day is OBJ
served more generally, perhaps, than in
any other community in the State. The
account will interest every reader of to-
days News and Observer, and is as fol-
lows:
The old Salem graveyard is a beautiful
spot and is always interesting to those
who are unfamiliar with Moravian burial
customs. There in that quiet place,
under the shade of giant cedars, can be
seen the curious graves of the Moravian
dead. In accordance with an old tradi-
tion the men. the women, and the chill
drcn are always inferred in separate
plots. No one is permitted the distinc-
tion of having even modest monument
over the site of his last resting place.
but every one, rich and poor alike, must
be content with nothing more than
modest slab of marble, lying flat on the
grace, which tells in simple but eloquent
words the story of his or her life. The
Moravians seem to have peculiar rever-
ence for the old graveyard, and oftentimes
in the stiffness of the early morning lit
tie groups of persons may he seen walk
ing about in silence and awe and with
bowed heads among the graves of the
dead
But of all the quaint and curious sur
vivals of old customs which may be seen
in Salem at the present time there is
none so interesting perhaps as the Mora
Wan Easter observance. There. in that
historic place, before sunrise on Easter
Sunday morning can be seen the same
service and heard the same songs that
were first seen and heard in far-away
Saxony, more than 200 years ago. And
there is the same trusting faith in the
glorious resurrection hope which those
early Moravians had. OF late years the
service has been especially interesting

second line, and in spite of the fact
taht the two divisions are separated by
procession of possibly several thousand
people, the rendering of these impressive
hymns is as clear and distinct as II the
musicians walked side by side.
AS the long procession reaches the end
of the avenue the singing multitude
marches through the higharched gate
into the old graveyard. When the centre
OF the graveyard is reached young and
old alike advance and arrange them
selves in open squares as the formation
within the hallowed grounds. The ven
cradle Bishop now steps forward and, as
the voices of the assembled host join in
reciting the beautiful words of the Mora
Wan Litany, takes his place at the in
tersection of the two principal walks
under four giant cedars, which are chain
ed together, significant of the motto,
United we stand, divided we fall" Abb
solute quiet reigns as the venerable man
of God raises his voice in the reading
of the Easter Litany. Again he utters
the words:
The Lord is risen.
Again from hundreds OF voices in
unison comes the response:
He is risen indeed.
And, just as the sun is rising over the
old hill of Betthabara, the joys of Spring
mingle with the joys of the resurrection
hope, as the waiting throng bursts a
glad hymn of thanksgiving and triumph
Oh let the last great triumph sound,
And bid our kindred rise;
Awake, We nations under ground,
Ye saints ascend the skies.
There, just as the light is breaking
the Moravians walk through the grave
yard, and with loving hands lay beauti-
full flowers on the graves of the dead
these being symbolcal, in their ritual
of the resurrection hope.
What is the real idea and meaning oil
this quaint service? The answer must be
sought in the beautiful words of the
Moravian Litany. There we are told that
the early hour is chosen because Jesus
arose early on Easter morning. the place
is chosen because, as Jesus body rested
in the tomb, so these graves contain the
bodies of loved ones. And, finally, the
day is chosen because it is the day OF
resurrection and the assembled multitude
in this way acknowledges its faith in the
resurrection of the Christian dead. These
are things that, apart from the interest
ing nature of the sunrise service, give ii
a higher and a deeper significance.

and has attracted to Salem vast numbers
of visitors from all parts of the country
Indeed, the little town, in spite of the
hospitality of its citizens, has hardly
been equal to the task of caring for those
who come here for the one purpose of
witnessing the quaint observance
If perchance you should find yourself
in Salem during the Easter festival you
would probably be awakened from your
slumbers in the old hostelry between the
hours of and on the morning of Easter
Sunday by the sound of music If you
should happen to be unacquainted with
Salem customs and should inquire the
reason for such an unusual occurrence,
you would probably be told that it is an
OLD Moravian observance which has been
handed down from former century.
Every year, on this day. long before the
first appearance of dawn, musicians visit
all the various parts of the little town
and on every street corner discourse
sweet melodies which breathe the Easter
spirit,
If you should look from your window
you would doubtless see another interest
ing sight. The street lamps have been
lighted and the sleepy little town, in
OF life, is now wide awake. Pedestrians
are hurrying to and fro and the electric
cars (for this is one of the few append
ages of modern progress that Salem
boasts) are filled with eager people, old
and young alike. 1t seems as if the en-
tire population of the place is out for
the sunrise service.
The solemn sound of the old church
stiffness of the early morning the large
concourse of people marches through the
Salon Square and gathers in front of
the little house of worship.
There is an air of intense quiet in the
darkness of the street that renders the
service all the more impressive. Just as
the old bell in the church steeple is
striking the hour of 5 the doors are
thrown open and the venerable Bishop
steps forth. greeting the multitude with
the Impressive words:
The Lord is risen.
The Lord is risen indeed.
And from five thousand voices comes
the response:
The Lord is risen indeed.
Then in the sombre darkness of the
early morn the entire congregation slow
ly advances with measured tread, joyful
ly singing:
What are these in bright array,
This innumerablc throng,
Round the altar night and day
Hymning one triumphant song:
Worthy is the risen Lamb once slain.
Blessing, honor. glory, power,
Wisdom, riches, to obtain.
New dominion every hour?
After this impressive scene the proces-
sion headed by the Bishop and one divi
sion of the band, slowly moves toward
the grave yard through The long avenue
of stately cedars Next comes the m,1I-
titude of spectators, slowly marching two
by two and, finally. second company
of musicians. AS the long file solemnlv
marches with measured tread. the two
divisions of the band discourse sacred and
irspiriting music of rather unusual ma
ture. The leading division OF the band
plays the first verse of the choral the

TYPHOID AT ITHACA, N. z.
Twenty-Five New Cases Discovered
Four Deaths Sunday.

A dispatch from Ithaca, N Y, dated yes
terday, says: A partial record from the
physicians today showed that twenty-five
new cases Of typhoid have been discovered
Yesterday four deaths occurred, one of the
victims being E. Prime, 'O8 student from
Huntington, Long Island, son Of Com
mander e. 8. Prime of the navy. The Cor
nell Infirmary is still crowded to it's capac-
ity, and twelve students have been taken
to the new annex opened a few days ago.
The university authorities are now pre-
pairing Simpson Hall. the new medical
building on the campus. for use as an ex-
ira hospital, where sick students will re-
ceive the best of medical care and atten-
ton. Attendance at university exercises
continues to be very low. and it was esti-
mated this morning that fully one-third of
the total enrolment Of students was alb
sent from classes
Today President Schurman sent four rep
resentatives to all student boarding houses
in the city, and received written pledges
from each that all water used in each place
for drinking and cooking purposes will first
be boiled. He has also made a demand on
the Ithaca Water Works Company that it
at once establish a purifying plant. It is
believed that one of the results Of the pres
ent epidemic will be the establishment Of a
university water plant, which will be con-
Quoted on thoroughly sanitary principles.

HIS PRIDE WAS HURT.
Minister Haggard's Unpleasant Refer
ence to Charge Russell.

ence to Charge Russell.
Some light Is thrown upon the unpleasant
reference made in letter by Mr.. Haggard,
States Charge Russell and published in the
British blue book. by q naval officer now
stationed at Washington, who was in Vene-
zuelan waters and frequently at the Ameri-
can legation during the period referred to
by Mr.. Haggard without going into details.
It appears from this officers statement
that by trying to assist some British citi-
the time necessary to hunt up and confer
with the minister, the American legation
people incurred the i'll will Of Mr.. Haggard,
so that all exchanges between the Lwo
ministries have since been Of the most
formal and imperSonal character
Mr. Haggard said in this letter, which
was in reference to the detention of the
British schooner Harry Troop by the Ven
ezuelan government:
Il regret to say that it would appear that
I placed too much faith in the complete ac-
curacy Of the statements of the secretary
Of the United States legation, w. w. Rus
sell, as to the improvement in the condition
of the Harry Troop ETC., when he saw her.
These statements may probably be account
ed for by the facts, which appear undoubt-
ed, that Mr.. Bowen was most anxious, for
reasons best known to himself to represent
the conduct Of the Venezuelan authorities
in the most, favorable light possible, and
same direction. To put 1t briefly, Mr. Rus
sell did not dare to say a word outside the
legation contrary to President Castro's
mode OF proceeding"

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

After the reading Of the journal in the
House Of Representatives today. Mr..
Cooper CTexas) called attention to the fact
that through an error In the Record bill
passed yesterday relating to an approprla-
ton In the river and harbor bill for Sabine
pass technically repealed the river and har-
Dor bill. AS the matter was somewhat COM
plicated, it was allowed to go over until to-
morrow.
Mr.. Littlefeld (Maine). as a matter OF
privilege. criticised some remarks Of Mr..
SulZer On W as they appeared In the
Record. He also denied some assertions
made in newspaper article concerning the
Ltttlefield antitrust bill.
Mr.. SulZer replied in a semi humorous
vein, saying Mr.. Littlefield's speech was his
defense for his failure to pass his antitrust
bill, as promised last summer.
Mr.. Littleheld did not pursue the matter
further, except to declare with great en-
phasis that a statement made by Mr.. Sulzer
was made with the knowledge that 1t was
untrue.
Mr. Dalzell, from the committee on rules,
then presented a special rule, making In
order the legislation reported in the naval
bill for the increase of the personnel of the
navy and for the increase Of the limit Of
cost of the Naval Academy. He explained
how vital the proposed legislation was, and
read the recommendations of the Secretary
of the Navy on the subject.
Mr.. Richardson CTenn) and Mr.. Under
wood (Ala.) both denounced the principle
involved in the rule vicious.
The resolution was adopted without divis-
lon. and the House went into committee Of
the whole and entered upon the considera-
ton Of the naval appropriation bill.
Mr.. Foss. chairman of the committee in
charge of the bill, made a preliminary state
ment explaining Its important features, and
dwelling especially upon the necessity for
providing additional officers In the navy.

TO SEEK THE ALEXANDER.
Mate Adamson Sails on the Collier
Lebanon

The Navy Department Is Informed that
the collier Lebanon lightened her cargo Of
coal at Norfolk this morning, preparatory
to starting forth on the broad Atlantic in
search Of the collier Alexander, which was
disabled a few hundred miles north Of
Porto Rico by the breaking of her propeller
shaft on the night of the 10th instant, and
has since been drifting helplessly at the
mercy Of wind and wave. Mate Thomas
Adamson Of the Inflated vessel is passen-
ger on the relief ship Lebanon, and will
direct Its movements toward the probable
course of the drifting vessel. The story OF
how Mate Adamson and four brave COM
panions left the Alexander at sea and
started in rowboat for Nassau, 400 miles
distant and how they were picked up by
the steamer Admiral Schley and brought
to this country, after spending two nights
and two days in the open sea- was told In
yesterdays Star.
When he was at the Navy Department
yesterday Mate Adamson informed the off,
ciais that the Alexander. despite the dis
abiement OF her machinery and steering ap-
paratus, was stanch and sound and able
to Withstand the elements for some time to
come. II not caught In the path of hurri-
cane or an unusually violent tropical tenn
pest. There are forty men on the vessel
including the master Capt Cove. and they
are abundantly supplied with provisions
and water, so that there Ia no occa-
sioii LII alarm as TO tnelr safety, except
In the possible event of storm of unusual
severity 1t Is regarded as strong pos
sibility that the Alexander has been al
ready sighted by one of the numerous mer-
chant steamers plying in those waters, and
that she Is being towed to a port of safety,
or. II that Is not possible, that her captain
and crew have been taken of and are now
on their way to the United States. The
vessel will not be abandoned, however SO
long as there Is the slightest chance OF
her salvage. A strong element in her
favor lies in the fact that she is schooner
rugged and Is able to keep herself steady
and make slow progress with favo-a BILE
winds
