1t is the purpose of the pastor q,
Grace Episcopal church as well as
many of his Pensioners to secure a
new organ for the church. 1t is badly
needed. The Old organ is worn out
and money spent on it is waste. The
new organ is to cost 1000; deepening
the chancel to receive same. s245:
changing vestry room, 5000. Tomor-
row being Easter Sunday, the Offering
for that day will go toward the organ

vestry it will be a good large gift.

1t was the first purpose of the
Daughters Of the Confederacy to fill
the cradles bordering the monument
with st. Augustine grass, but Florist
Heiptz soon demonstrated that roses
would cost but little more to plant
and the contrast would be so much
more striking and effective. So now
he will plant 140 roses. The first
cradle at the base will be filled with
white verbenas and the bottom cradle
will be planted to red verbenas. The
reader will see how attractive and

EASTER!

Walk, dear Christ, with footsteps

Fair with duties done for thee,
And our thankful spirits saw:

Have we an offering at this season
when all Christians rejoice over the
resurrection, the victory of life over
death? The birds carol forth their
praise. the flowers burst into new
beauty. the very leaves glow with the
promise Of resurrection. and the
whole world rejoices over the new
life and beauties Of mature as up to
heaven there rises one resonant wave
of triumphant song: The Lord is
Risen, Alleluia!" e
If we are glad in the resurrection of
Jesus Christ, we should b glad and
willing that it should meass, re same
to every one. The true Ester spirit
can never exist in an atmosphere of
selfishness; and if we persist in such.
our hearts will become as empty as
the tomb upon the first Joyous Easter
morning when Christ arose from the
dead and became "the first fruits of
Rhem that sleep"
oday We may get new visions Of
lorified Savior. Today We may

We may be glad and go forward

WITHDRAWING THE TROOPS
Three Companies Leave Pensacola
Every Oay-ocaIa Company Will

Pensacola, April 17-There Is no
change in the strike situation. The
company and former employees are APP
rarently as far apart in their differ
ences as ever. At late hour tonight

being held for the purpose of devising
some new basis for settlement, or with
possible view to bringing pressure

order to obtain concessions necessary
TO final adjustment
The cars have been running all day
over the entire lines, with only one or
two disturbances reported Several
cars have been stoned and one motor
man is reported as having been struck
by rock, but not severely injured
Mayor Goodman this morning re-
piled to the letter of the adjutant gen.
eral. in which the latter asked author
ity to return a certain portion of the
troops. In this Letter the mayor again
asserts that there is grave need for
the troops in the city, but he would
leave to the discretion of the military
authorities the question as to what
FORE is actually required.
Three Companies Leave y
Upon receipt of this notification. the
adjutant general Immediately issued
orders for the return to their home
stations of Companies c, K and NJ,
First Infantry. These companies were
selected for the reason that their sta
tons are nearest to Pensacola and
should any contingency arise they
no
1t is possible that under this pro-
gram three more companies will be
returned tomorrow, and a proportional
number each day until the sitaution
gets better or the force is reduced to
a minimum number which it is thought
could cope with any situation which
might arise.
At an early hour this morning the
adjutant general notified the city and
county authorities that they must
make immediate preparations to take
care of the situation themselves, and
that the troops might all be recalled
at any time, without further notice.
This announcement created a great
deal of excitement and uneasiness
among the business men of the COM
have been forwarded to the governor,
requesting that the, troops be retain
ed here for at least a short time long
er
Expense Of Troops
An interesting statement was made
from military headquarters here today
as to the cost Of keeping the troops
in the city. An estimate Of expenses
shows that the daily cost of pay and
subsistence from Sunday until today
was about $3.50.
This will be reduced one fourth to-
morrow and one fourth the next day.
The chief expense, however, is trans
pOrtation and If regular passenger
rates are charged by the railroads the
cost of bringing the troops to Pensa-
cola and returning them would ap-
proximate $4,000. =
1t is understood, however that the
adjutant general has asked the rail-
roads to make a special rate for this
occasion as was done at the time OF
the Jacksonville fire and is annually
made for state encampmentS. If the
usual rate of 1 cent per mile is made.
the total expense for transportation
will be less than $4,000.

NO STATE ENCAMPMENT
THIS YEAR-PERHAPS

1t is said in military circles that
there can be no encampment of the
state troops this year, as the Pensa-
cola incident will use up all of the
available funds. Details from the diff
ferent companies will probably go to
the Tampa and Pensacola forts and
participate with the regular troops IN

A STRANGE PAGEANT.
Annual March Of Mohammodans 10 the
Tomb Of Moses.

Tomb of Moses.
One Of the strongest OF all the pag

Jews. Moses Is prophetS1E the high
est honor. But, rejecting tIiV traditions
OF the Hebrews, they refuse TO belley,
that he was buried In a valley In the
land OF Moab, as Is described IN the
last chapter OF Deuteronomy. Instead
they assert that he was buried where
he breathed bis last, upon the summit
OF Mount Nebo.
Therefore each year at the time OF
the Greek Easter the faithful gather
by thousands In the early morning be-
fore the site OF the temple Of Solomon
In perfect silence waiting for day
break. Later the strange scene OF quiet
is entirely transformed. fanatics dane
ing and preaching. hordes OF dervlshes

dances and hundreds OF exhorters rous

The scene Is gaudy with hundreds Of
red and green banners, and the only
semblance OF order Is In the semlregu
lar organizations OF marchers.
At last the procession forms. with
the banners borne ahead, an Imam
bearing the yataghan Of the prophet

the armies OF Northumberland after

A large part Of the population Of Je-

which the procession moves toward

In the ranks of marchers. since death
has often been the penalty OF an at
tempt by a on-Mohammedan to make
this march to "Nebi-Mouca," the tomb
OF Moses"
Traders OF many kinds invade the
camp. for the marchers remain at the
mosque FIVE days, and all their sup

The mosque on Nebo Is one Of the
most sacred OF Mohammedan shrlnes
and one of the most difficult for Il
Christian to approach.
An English traveller who brought an
order from the porte was denied ad-

It has become possible to enter, II Is
