SAVANNAH'S CHURCHES.

Some Views of Them by a Visitor.
If Savannah is not "a city of
churches" it surely can boast of one
of the most beautiful churches in it's
interior that the eye can rest upon.
Though it is "a church without Bish-
op"-and the grand Cathedral is most
attractive to the traveller who has
visited the Cathedrals of the old world.
They may gaze at this Independent
Presbyterian Church while feeling of
deep solemnity and sacredness will fill
their hearts.
Perfect in it's proportions but simple
and elegant in its completeness. the ar
chitect happily carried out his own
ideas. No palry carvings disturb the
symmetry, but all the surroundings
command deep respect. The wealth of
mahogany, so rare, in these days, seen
in the grand high pulpit, the comfort
able, roomy pews, and the massive
pillars of white and pure white ceiling
making the contrast so pleasing, is the
perfection of simplicity and elegance.
And then they found a man to
match the place-the Rev DR.. j. Y.
Fair, Intellectually fitted to meet the
and. from that pulpit so near to heav-
en-, to lead the thoughts upward.
The remembrance of its beauty, en-
joyed years ago before the cruel war,
has ever been pleasure, but to wor-
ship within it's walls will be an ever
lasting memory. All the churches have
more or less of interest to the visitor

In 1S49, my first Christmas in Savan-
nah, l recall with delight the beauti-
full decorations in that church. In the
North the Japonica has great
money value, and here, the altar rail-
ing was wreathed with pink camelias,
200 in number, a large vase of pure
white Japonicas and the pillars

st. Johns Church has a name dear
to every churchman. for almost every

name of the favorite disciple of Our

and leads his church both young and
old inward and onward

and misery for the want of enough
strength to feel well and happy.
If you feel listless, without ambition
and run down, 1T is bad sign.
You are running grave chances. You
are in condition to be attacked by
most any disease.
This feeling of debility is a symptom
that your system is generally democrat

You should take Vinol, which we
know and will guarantee will restore
your strength.
Following is one case where it did
this. Mrs T. H. Boyle, of Sc Chestnut

Last spring l used one bottle of
Vinol. At that time l was all run

Vinol acts directly on the stomach,

PROPOSE TO DEFEND PENNELL
Friends VIII Assert at Inguest That
Dead Mane Borrowed $780,
900 without Security.

BUFFALO. April Silt was intimated
this afternoon that IN the event Of those
Interested in the Penneii estate being called
upon at tomorrows inquest to divulge any
information as to Peunelrs financial opera
tions in the cast. an effort win be made to
show that the money he obtained from his
friends and relatives was in the nature Of
legitimate loans. In other words, 1t may
be asserted that the $780, 900 was advanced
to him without any security whatever.
His attorney, Wallace Thayer, admits
that Pennell had no security to give for
such loans; that he possessed no real es-
tate, and had no bonds or stocks or mort
cages.
Mr. Thayer says he has not yet opened
the sealed instructions left him by the
dead man.
"PennelI left written orders that they
should not be opened until the insurance
money was paid in" said Mr.. Thayer. II
therefore don't know what my secret in
structions are. / don't Faow whether the
bond drawn by Pennell to secure the pay
ment Of $4,000 to Mrs. Burdick is contained
in that package or not. In fact, don't
know yet whether the $p5,0O0 life insurance
assigned to me n trust was intended for
Mrs. Burdick."

UNION PACIFIC SEEKS DELAY
Hearing of the Application of the
Chicago Great Western is
Again Adjourned.

The hearing OF the case of the Chicago
Great Western against the Union Pacific
Railway company for the privilege OF
crossing the bridge which was inaugurated
before Special Master in Chancery G. W.
Pearsall yesterday morning, has been con-
tinued to Monday. April 20, on the appli-
cation of John N Baldwin, attorney for
the Union Pacific. Mr.. Baldwin submitted
an affidavit from Chief Counsel w. r. Kel-
ley Of the Union Pacific, stating that 1t
would be impossible for him to be present
and take up the case before April 22 be-
cause OF contemplated visit to Califor-
mia that is of an imperative personal
nature.
The postponement OF the hearing was
objected to by the counsel for the Great
Western, and attention was called to the
fact that a postponement OF thirty days
had been already granted from March 8,
and Counsel General Kellogg was moved
to believe that the Union Pacific is pur-
posely seeking delay, and both Mr.. Kellogg
and Judge McHugh argued against the
granting OF the petition for postponement.
Special Master Commissioner Pearsall an
nounced that postponement Of the case
would be taken to April 21. The indica-
tions are that the taking OF testimony in
the case may occupy three months, and
1t is possible that ruling will not be given
in the case before September.

SOLEMN WEEK FOR CHURCH
Three PenitentiaI Festivals to he OBJ
served I'm Closing Days
of Lent.

Beginning today there will be celebrated
the three most solemn festivals in the his
tory Of the church, the season OF penitential
ceremonies TO end with the triumphal cell
ebrstlon Of Easter on Sunday.
Today in the calendar of the lturgical
churches is known as Maundy Thursday.
1t is the anniversary of the Lords Supper,
at which was instituted the sacrament OF
the holy eucharist. Upon this day In the
Catholic churches the institution of the
sacrament is especially commemorated, and
In Europe and the older parts of the United
States there are visits in procession 10
the altars upon which the holy eucharist
is exposed. At Rome the bishops perform
the ceremony OF the washing of thu feet OF
lesser dignitaries of the church in CON-
memoration OF the washing Of the feet Of
the apostles by Jesus This ceremony has
been performed seldom In the United
states and but once in Omaha, when the
celebrant Of the ceremony was Bishop
O'Gorman. On this day also is the holy
chrism blessed by the bishop. This oil
OF catechumens" is used in the sacrament
of baptism, confirmation and the ordaining
Of priests. The ceremony OF the day is one
of the longest in the rites of the church
and is one OF the most beautiful The
altars are stripped of ornaments and the
bells are silent from the morning until
Easter morning.
Good Friday, the anniversary Of the death
OF Jesus, is celebrated with unique cere-
ny. There is no conservation OF the
elements, but the host consumed in the
mass is that which was consecrated the
day before and which is let upon the
altar until the following day The mass
is therefore very short. At this time the
cross, which during passion week, has been
covered is uncovered and the worshipers
kiss the cross as they enter the church.
Holy Saturday is the eve Of Easter Upon
this day the preparations for the Eester
celebration are made. At the services of
the day the paschal candle is blessed, and
this candle burns upon the altar from
Easter until Ascension that is, during the
| time that Christ remained upon earth after
His resurrection. On this day the fonts are
solemnly blessed and the holy water IL
