game of handball as the correct
amusement in observance of the day.
A Quaint Idea.
One of the quaintest of the old time
and now discarded ideas concerning
the festival was that Easter Monday,
women had right to beat their hus-
bands. and on Tuesday the latter
could return the compliment.
In Germany, however, this curious
custom, or something that nearly re-
sembles it, is preserved in tradition
that maid servants shall whip the men
servants on Easter Day, and vice
versa on Monday. The tradi-
ton, it is said, is lived up to. Another
pagan ceremony which lived on after
the introduction of Christianity in diff
ferent countries was the lighting of
the Easter fires on the top of noun
tains. 1t must be kindled by new
fire drawn from wood by friction, and
in pagan days was intended to SYM
bolize the victory of spring over win
ter. A similar ceremony has been
adopted into the Easter services by
the Church, but the new or paschal
fire on Holy Saturday is drawn from
flint and is intended to symbolic the
resurrection of the Light of the World
from tomb closed by stone. Easter
day is a day of general merry-making
and of various sports and games in
Greece and Russia, as a reaction
from the rigors of their long and
severe Lent.

Ignorant Catholics.

Superficial observers who travel fire.
quently publicly express opinions on
the character of the peoples whose
lands are privileged to visit. In ex-
pressing such opinions they find
more or less occasion to dwell con-
descendingly upon what they are
pleased to term the ignorance of the
peoples of Catholic countries. We are
not at present unaware of any Cath
Ollie country in which there is need
of a Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Children. England, a
Protestant country, is, we believe,
unique in needing such a society, and
the statistics this society publishes,
abundantly, we regret to say, justify
it's existence; for we read that since
it's institution 20 years ago it has
known of 32,204 girl-victims of i'm
morality. Last year in London alone
the society dealt with 119 cases of this
kind. How many cases in that city
only were there unknown to it?
Surely the time has come in England
for the re-enthronisation of Woman
hood in the restoration of the Blessed
Mother of our Lord to that Venera-
Sion and reverence in which she was
held in that country before the flood
gates of mems basest passions were
flung wide open by the glorious Ref
ormation." The cases of cruelty
dealt with by this Society average
$4,000 a year.

gether blamed for some things they
do The necessity for the Archdea-
cons denunciation is only one of many
proofs that the Church of England
has after some $40 years of existence
failed to become the Church of the
English nation, for the very simple
reason that she is not the Catholic
Church; however closely in some of
her services she may initiate the
Catholic Church in the hope that she
may be accepted as that which she
initiates How true and far-reaching
is that shrewd observation of Abra-
ham Lincoln's, ''You cannot fool all
the people all the time" We are con-
fident in stating that on New Years
Eve there was no rowdyism in the
immediate vicinity of Westminster
Cathedral, the Catholic Cathedral of
London.

Easter Customs.

OF course the Easter egg is a time
honored symbol of the festival, the
primal cause for this being on account
of the use of eggs being forbidden
during Lent they were served with
great eclat on Easter Day, and in an
cient times were colored red to sym
bolize the Easter joy The custom
may also have hadeits origin in some
form of paganism, for a great many
pagan customs observing the return of
spring, gravitated toward Easter, and
in pagan times the egg was the en-
blem of the terminating life. of early
spring. There are many customs con.
nected with the use of eggs on Easter
including the game known as egg
picking, and the practice of egg-rolling
by children on Easter Monday on the
lawn of the White House in Wash,
ington. The Easter rabbit is another
emblem for the festival which we have
borrowed from the pagans, with whom
the rabbit was always the emblem oil
fertility. Hand ball playing was a
fayorite Easter amusement in cont
mental Europe in the sixth century
and afterwards, and strange as it may
seem, priests, monks, and even
Bishops INDUCED in the game as a
relief from the severe restraints and
tiisciplines of Lent In England the
municipal corporations set aside their

In comparison Jack London is not

He bring great many letters to our
office every day.
He's not a man of many words, has
never much to say.
This modest man of letters is not a
man to brag.
Much intelligence he carries in his
head and in bag.
How he can produce so many letters
always puzzles me
The fiction that they contain is Won
derful to see.
Many doleful tales he bring us in his
weH-worn leather sack.
Mostly from some customer who is
always slow and slack.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-Attor- rey General Gregory instructed the United States District Attorney at Porto Rico. to institute libel proceed ings against the German steamer Odenwad, which attempted on Sun day to leave San Juan harbor with out clearance papers. Under the proceedings the vessel may be held in the custody of q marshal pending settlement of the question of whether she is to be forfeited to the United States under recent joint reso- lution of congress prescribing penal ties in such cases.
 Attorney General Gregory's action, indicating the purpose of the govern ment to undertake the confiscation of the Odenwald by due process of law in the district court for Porto Rico, attracted much attention in of . ficial diplomatic circles. It is the first definite action begun by the ad- ministration under new congression- al authority. It is explained tonight
 that the owners of the ship might custody pending the disposition of the
 case in court, although it is not likely such course will be followed Officials are waiting for further in- formation before taking action under the criminal sections of the neutral ity resolution. for the violation oi which the owners or masters of tho Odenwald might be subjected to fine

 Civilian inhabitants, who had been unable to escape when the siege be- gan. swarmed about the forts beg eing for food and refuge, but the com mandant was unable to care for them. The death of two prominent gener- als in February from typhoid tended to weaken the determination of Gen aral Von Kusmanek, commander of the fortress
