ers of imitation palms, and worship
ers linger on the steps of st. Peters
and other churches to buy these sym
bols of the day. On Easter morning
priests may be seen on their way to
bless the breakfast of the people. This
meal consists for the most part of eggs
and sausages. and the blessing of it is
considered essential by every deyout
Catholic.
Another quaint custom that is still
observed in Rome is that of spider
sweeping on Easter. 1t is meant to
typify cleansing. Vendors on the
streets have small brooms fixed at the
ends of long handles for the purpose.
With these all the webs are swept out
of the houses.
Easter is n glad holiday in the Catho-
lie capital. The feelings of the people
are in accord with the resurrection idea,
the triumph of the Christ over death.
The common salutation is, "Happy
Easter" and this salutation is offered
not alone to acquaintances, but to
strangers as well. The bells ring out
joyfully, and Rome becomes n great
musical instrument, vibrating with
chimes. In other times the season was
marked by n perfect carnival of form,
a riot of ceremony. In later days

A GENIUS,
Oscar Hammerstein, Im~presario, and
Nis AeEieNements.


Oscar IIammerstein. who proposes to
give productions of grand opera in
New York on Il magnificent scale and
yet at prices within the reach of the
masses, believes in legacies lie wants
to leave Il legacy 10 the people when he
dies. Others have left libraries aud
colleges and hospitals and ART EalltrieS.
but nobody seems TO have thought of
leaving Il home of music. an educator

This is what he hopes the Manhattan
Opera House, which he is now building.
will be. 1t will be Il rival to the Met
ropolitan Opera House, which has new
er had a rival before. Its existence
will mean competition for the services
o. the great operate singers, with cor
responding benefits to the pockets of
the latter. and Mr.. Hammerstein prom
ises that the works produced at his
opera house will reach Il high standard.
The impreSario is one of the most
versatile men in the theatrical world.
He has made fortunes and lost them
several times. He has built some half
dozen big amusement places in his
time and has won distinction in vari-
Gus ways as Il puryeyor of public en-
tertainmcnt. Mr.. Hammerstein came
to this country from Germany before
he had reached his majority and land
ed in New York penniless and friend
less. He found employment in a cigar
store and learned To roll cigars. One

would make Il hundred cigars while a
man was making one He had been
getting married about that time, the
rent was due, and he had no money
with which TO pay it,. There was very
little in the cupboard. though the Ham
merSteinS were good eaters. Neverthe-
less he came home to Il scanty meal
the table in front of his plate he laid
a certified check for $685. 900, the sum
realized from the sale of his invention.
He afterward made over 5000 900 from
another cigar making invention, and he
has invented and patented many other
devices, some forty in all; has built
apartment houses. composed operas
and tried his hand mt n variety of other
things. This %colloquy nee occurred
between him and an interviewer:
"How much do you sleep?"
"Four hours a day"
"And eat?'
"a banana for lunch, breakfast and
dinner very light and simple. Ny ex-
penses come easily within $1.50 a day"
"Drink 2"
"Not at all. No likee. Never drank
a glass of champagne in my life. New

Matrimony and patience! 1t Is not
always a perfect combination, is it?
In South Africa the savage tribes have
a peculiar ceremony which they put
the matrimonial candidate through pre-
vlous to his entering the holy state.
His hands are tied up in a bag con-
tanning five ants for two hours. If he
bears unmoyed the tortures Of their
stings he is considered qualified to cope
with the nagging and daily jar and fret
of married life. Such a man would
make an admirable husband. He
would not be upset by the thoughts of
a spring bonnet or grow irritable every
time the steak was overdone. The idea
Of having a patience trial for those
about to marry is one that civilized peo-
pie might adopt.

"OLD FOLKS" GATHERING
PREPARATIONS ARE MADE
Freeman F. HaisIey is Made Presi-
dent Of the Annual Meeting at Beth
el-PIan Fine Program for the Sec.
ond Sunday in June.

At meeting yesterday in Bethel,
the people interested in the "Old
Folks Meeting" made arrangements
for the affair this year. Upon the re-
quest of Nathan Harlan that the bur
den of the work be taken off of him
on account of his advancing age,
Freeman F. Haisley was elected presi-
dent and will have active charge of
the arrangements while Henry B.
Polly was made vice president and
will assist him.
For over twenty years, the "Old
Folks Meeting in the Christian
church on the second Sunday in June
has been one of the two biggest
events and this year will be no ex-
ception. The attendance each year
numbers over five hundred. The pro-
gram for the coming meeting has not
been fully outlined but it will be an
elaborate one. In the afternoon the
Rev. w M. Harkins of Union City
will speak.

1t Is Expected That McMahan
and Matthews Will Hand
in Reports Today.
AWAITED With INTEREST
NO MATTER WHAT THE REPORTS
MAY SHOW 1T Is NOT LIKELY
THAT COUNCIL WILL FAVOR
SALE OF PLANT.

Within few days, the official re-
port of the committee to investigate
the Municipal Lighting and Power
Plant will be made and the people OF
Richmond will know the exact condi-
ton of the financial and mechanical
departments of the city power plant.
Both Accountant McMahan and Prof.
Matthews the electrical expert, have
finished their respective reports and
will present them to the committee
this week, possibly this afternoon.
Jesse S. Reeves, one of the members
of the subcommittee that had charge
of hiring the expert accountant and
electrical engineer, stated last even
ing, that as far as he knew, the re-
ports had not yet been turned over to
they were promised for last week. He
also stated that there may be meet
ing of the committee this afternoon
to consider the matter.
In case the committee reports to
Council that it is in favor of selling
the light plant, Judge Fox, of the
Wayne Circuit Court will be asked to
name three appraisers, who will in
spect the plant and set value upon
it. Then, Council can proceed to sell,
if it wishes, but at a price not to be
below that set by the appraisers
