EASTER SERVICE

This Year Services Will BE in
Charge of Riverside Churchmen-
will Be Special Music.
(By Associated Press)

Riverside, Cal, March 2S.-Easter
wn on Mt. Rubidoux, the scene Of
varside's open air observance OF
surrection morn, will see the flag
K America given prominent place
the observance of the day, as evi-
K zee that the men and women who
ect the annual service place pa
il 0tism only second to their faith.
And this flag" said the late Bish-
K; Conaty of the Roman Catholic dio-
Z je of Monterey and Los Angeles, at
he ceremony of the dedication of the
cross that tops Mt. RubidouX, "can-
rot persist unless it is accompanied by
the spirit typified by the cross"
These words, spoken in 1909, had
Eeen preceded two years before by
the unfurling of an American flag on
the same spot, when Jacob A. Riis,
the founder of the outdoor observance,
raised the colors where the eros snow
stands. This flag, he said, means
democracy.
"In democracy" said Mr.. Riis,
"the people have got to understand
each other. If we cannot get to-
Igether on a spiritual basis, on what
ilasis can it be done?'
With the words of Bishop Conaty
and of Mr.. Riis as their theme for this
years service, the people of Riverside
have planned their ninth annual East
cr congregation. The war, and its
attendant disturbance OF normal con-
ditions, dismayed for a time some of
those who have been active in the
past. They said people wouldn't come,
and, if they did come, the times were
not right for a religious observance.
But the moving spirit of the occa-
sion took a stand for the usual serv-
ice.
I'VE have got to hold fast to that
whic his right" he said, "and the war
makes our service more necessary than
il ever has been in peaceful years."
Last year, hours before dawn, au-
tomobiles and other vehicles deposited
their passengers on the sides of Mt.
Rubidoux, and thousands came afoot
flom Riverside and other nearby
places. When the sun rose over the
hills, it rayed with light masses of
people, grouped on every available
space, and, covering the slopes to the
!furthest point to which even the
sound of the chorus might be expected
to carry.

ENGLISH HOUSE COMMONS
PASSES MAN POWER BILL
Consumption Applies Equally to Ire

ises Home Rule Soon.

London, April 17.-By a majirity of
1893 the house of commons has adopt
ed the third reading Of the government
man power bin after an exciting de-
bate, originated by John Dillon, ma
tlonalist leader. Mr.. Dillon again
strongly attacked the government pol
Icy and moved omission of the clause
applying conscriptiOn to Ireland.
The nationalist members again show
ed themselves unrelentingly opposed
to conscriptiOn while Sir Edward Car
son, the Ulster leader, also made an
attack on government methods.
The most important speeches of the
debate were those by George Nicoll
Barnes, labor member of the war cab
met without portfolio, and Premier
Lloyd George
Mr.. Barnes, probably as a result of
the conference of the labor ministers
with the premier on Monday, was able
to answer that the government would
Immediately introduce a home rule
Dill and would use the greatest influ-
ence to pass it, or fail in the attempt.
