Among the strange customs honored
IN Persia Is one which empowers an
executioner. after performing his dread
office. to claim the payment from the
parents or relatives of the victim Of
sum. not exceeding 500 tomans, OF $500.
Rarely, however. Is this sum fortheom-
ing, and as consequence the murder
er is often imprisoned for life on &C
count of the refusal Of the executioner
to work for nothing. The sentence Is,

SPECIAL EASTER MUSIC
ST. ALPHONSUS CHURCH
Two Choirs Furnish Musical Programs of Rare
Merit on Easter Sunday Morning

The music and singing at high mass
at St. Alphonsus church on Easter
Sunday was something better than is
usually furnished by the choir of that
church and the edifce had also been
beautifully decorated with potted
plants and cut flowers for the occa-
sion. The choir sang the celebrated
''Mass of Mercandente' and the
Regina Coeli, :" of Melvel at the
offertory and ended with the "Jesu
Del Vivi,' by Verdi. The soloists
were: Miss Lorraine Koehmstedt,
soprano; Mrs. c. Tourand, alto; H.
E. Dorval, tenor; Ben Riewer, bass (;
with Mrs. H. E. Dorval as organist
and leader. 1t would not do to omit
mention of the junior choir, which
had charge of the musical portion of
the service at the early mass on Eas-
ter morn under the leadership of Miss
Lorraine Koehmstedt. The two
choirs of St. Alphonsus church have
shown their capacity to handle music
of such class as is but seldom aspir-
ed to, even by choirs of cities far
larger than Langdon, and in such a
manner that the congregation has just
cause to feel proud Of them.
