Threats of Strife.

Washington. d. c., January o.--Jud-
son C. Wellivcr. OF the Washington
Times STAFF. has tho following story in
this afternoons issue OF that paper:
ScrGpping. OF the real Democratic
sort. has already started In anticipation
OF the quadrennial session OF the Dem
ocratic National Committee that will
be held In this city next week.
Persons afflicted with suspicion that
William Jennings Bryan Is not going
to figure extensively in the coming
campaign will do we'll TO note that he
will arrive here Monday morning, after
speaking in Raleigh Sunday evening.
He will come. moreover. armed with
the proxy of National Committeeman
Hall, OF Nebraska, and with armor
glrded on for the fight that will decide
the represe ton of Pennsylvania and
Tennessee in the committee.
National Chairman Norman z. Mack,
OF Buffalo, is at the Shoreham to-day,
comforting with party leaders. The
best information obtainable to-day is
that the Wilson forces have q bigger
following in the committee than can
be commanded by any other of tho pres
idential candidate. but that they have
not at present majority.
Chairman Mack to-day declared en-
phltlcally that no member or the COM
mittee could make an Intelligent guess
now as, to whet city would get the
convention. Five towns-Baltimore,
Denver. ST. Louis. New York and Chi
cago-are making active campaigns
for 1t. and Kansas City probably will
be In the race.
Baltimore has big support among
Southern committeeman. but 1t Is ham

er its hotels will I'LL the bill. More
over, Its July climate Is not popular,

Denver has the pole in the matter OF

SIR. Gariields journey to New YORK.

with having taken leading part in

MT GARFIELD would say IA word In re-
gard to their conference. Mr.. Garfield
succeeded In entering Colonel Roose-

been there for some time before his
presence was known. He departed soon
after, and later met Colonel Roosevelt
at club. where they were able to
talk In seclusion.
Despite this arrangement Colonel
Roosevelts presence at the club be-
came known, and when he emerged
to so TO his train, he found a squad
OF intervIewers and photograp piers

The colonel was not at all plea sed.
He said IL was most offensive to be
followed to private clubs. and that he
regarded II as an outrage.

THE NAME OF EASTER.
u Is Derived From the Saxon Goddess
Ostera.

q Is Derived From the Saxon Goddess
Ostera.
The name Easter is variously ac-
counted for. but the most natural and
probable meaning is that derived from
the Saxon Oster. which signifies TO
rise. But II is known that the old
Teutons had goddess that they called
Ostera or Eostre and that she had Il
festival just about this time of year.
The words Paques. Pasch. paschen.
Paaske and pask, as the holiday is
known among the French, Scotch.
Dutch. Danes and Swedes. are deriv-
ed from the Hebrew Pash or the sea
son when the paschal lamb was sacri-
feed.
Rationalists claim that ChriSt's death
was an allegory that had grown out
of this paschal observance and that
as the lamb took away the sins of the
people 80 Christ represented similar
vicarious atonement They hold this
view partly because of the claim that
in the old Hindu myths the history of
Christ Is foretold Krishna. the in

Whatever be the beliefs rs to the
personality Of the central figure III the
tragedy that is commemOrnted at this
season, there is no doubt that some OF
the Easter observances bad their origin
FAR back before the Christian era. Os-
terra. the Saxon goddess. was but q
descendant from the Egyptian Isis,
and the coming of spring was always
celebrated with rejoiclngs. The sun
of Easter was the sun that arose from
its grave of winter and ascended to-

cheeks as she tried them on before the
dim old mirror. Two young people
were standing in her garden watching

ing. His arm was about the girl. and
their cheeks were pressed together.
Amabel was too happy to care about
hats for herself. She told Rob that
the other missionary ladies must have
suffered a revulsiOn of feeling and sac
rificed their Easter bonnets for Electa.
She knew her own mother had sent a
foulard silk dress pattern.
On Easter Sunday Electa Scott wore
new Easter bonnet TO church, aud
