FEAST
BEGINS APRIL 6

Hebrews of Grand Forks will OBJ
serve the Feast Of Passover begin
ming Friday evening, April 6, and con-
tinuing for q week.
The holiday is celebrated each year
by the Jews in memory of their
flight from Egypt and the rule of
Pharoah, who had attempted to crush
gut the race for many years. Led by
Moses, who later directed them across
the desert, where they spent forty
years. the Jews hastened out Of
Egypt in the night They fled to the
Red sea, where. according to the
biblical story. the waters split and
they marched safely across to the
other side. The Egyptians. attempting
to reach them, were drowned in the
sea. the walls of which had receded.

The Feast of Passover celebrates
this escape from Pharoah and his

the unleavened bread or matzos is
used during the week. This to re-
member the bread that the Jews were
compelled to eat when they fed from
Egypt. The housewives, ordered to
rush out into the night, had no time
to allow their dough to rise and as
result they ate the unleayened
bread the next day.

GAVE ADDRESS
AT UNIVERSITY
Rev. A. H. Thompson Spoke on
Lincoln at Convocation
This Morning.

A masterful address was that given
by Rev. A. H. Thompson of this city
at the regular convocation of the
University of North Dakota this
morning at II o'clock. In the absence
Of President McVey, Dean Vernon P.
Squires presided.
After the singing of America" by
the audience, DIR. Thompson gave one
Of the finest most thoughtful, and
scholarly patriotic addresses heard
here in some time. His subject, "Ab-
raham Lincoln" was handled in an
original, delightful and thoroughly
interesting manner. The son of
union soldier and an unreconstructed
rebel mother, DR.. Thompson is
southerner. His father died when the
boy was young and hence the infiu-
ence OF the mother was the stronger,
and it was not until he was mature
man that he became interested in the
study Of Lincoln. His love for the
martyred president, though coming
late has come with deepness and fer
vor, as was clearly shown in the ex-
position of the morning.
Republics are spirit; the spirit of
'76 made us, and the spirit of '61 saw
ed us as nation. The embodiment
Of the one was George Washington.
The embodiment of the other was Alb
raham Lincoln. After contrasting
these two with other great world
leaders, and quoting great foreign
writer's in appreciation of the two
great Americans, DR.. Thompson
sketched the picturesque early life of
Lincoln. the disadvantages under
which he grew, his education, and
then the great advantages which were
his. Born Of pioneer stock he was
virile and strong. He was kind, hon
est, and possessed of a saving sense
of humor. Lincoln was a religious
man, a Christian in the true meaning
of the word. His literary ability amaz-
ed the world. His intellectual power
attracted the attention and command
ed the respect of the nation. The Lon
don Spectator said he was the best if
not the greatest ruler of his time
And last of all he was great in the
measure in which he rose above the
merely human and manifested forth
the divine. His last official order was
the pardoning of a southern prisoner.
After describing the feeling in the
south after Lincolns assassination,
DR.. Thompson in conclusion quoted
the closing part Of the Gettysburg ad-
dress as our conservation.
The special music of the morning
was a tenor solo by Clarence O'Con-
nor. which was greatly enjoyed.
Beautiful tone color, fine feeling.
richness and clearness characterized

STORM DELAYS
MANY TRAVELLERS
Normal Train Service is Resumed
on Dakota Division After
Brief Tieup.

Although train service was serious
ly impaired by the big snowstorm
which swept through southern North
Dakota and Minnesota last evening,
normal conditions were retored on the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
railroads this morning.
Trains Nos. and 20 on the Great
Northern, due out of St. Paul last
evening, were annulled, but this
morning these trains were made up in
Grand Forks and left on schedule
time for western points. -s
All on Regular Tine.
All trains were running on regular
time in the Dakota division today ex-
cept No. 4, which was annulled be-
tween Minot and Grand Forks. How
ever, No. 4 was made up here and left
on its regular schedule for st. Paul
at 1855 this noon.
Trains on the Northern Pacific were
seriously delayed last evening, but are
all reported on normal schedule to-
day.
Thought Strike On.
In view Of the fact that the storm
was not felt in Grand Forks many
travellers last evening thought that
the threatened railway strike was on
and many inquiries were made at To-
cal depots.
Acting on orders issued from the
general offices Of the Great Northern,
Trains No. 10 and 80 were not allowed
to proceed east further than Grand
Forks last evening. and a large num-
Der OF passengers were forced to wait
until this morning to continue their
journey.

ENRIOYEs TO MEET.


An important meeting for rail-
road men will be held at $3.50
o'clock Sunday morning Mt the Odd
Fellows hall, according to an
nouncement made this afternoon by
chairmen of the committees of the
four local brOtherhOOds of railway
transportation. p. c. Bailey will
give an address. All railroad men
are requested to be present.
With no new developments in the
local situation members of the four
railway transportation brotherhoods
in Grand Forks were quietly marking
time today as the time set for the
strike Of freight crews drew hourly
nearer.
Engineers. conductors, firemen and
trainmen of freight crews on the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
lines were said to be ready to walk
out at the given time-Tuesday at 6
p. m.-Unless the demands of the
unions are complied with before then.
No further advices have been receiv-
ed regarding the walkout OF passenger
crews of the Hill lines. which was
scheduled to take place five days later
on Friday afternoon.
Travellers Hurry.
Il is still believed that many of the
old time railroad men will not want
to foreifeit their rights by going on
strike.
Eastbound travellers who have been
stopping over in Grand Forks have
been exceedingly active during the
past week, making earlier trips than
they had planned in order not to be
caught by the strike.
Harry McNichol. agent Of the Nor
thern Pacific in this city. has received
instructions from headquarters to
notify all parties that mo perishable
