A study of nature reveals the answer to the question, “How shall the [ be raised again?” That it is in ect harmony with the scientists’' as- on that the human soul possesses | functions not exercised during the pres- t existence, hence they must be exer- | d in a future one.” The pastor called attention to the fact | that Christ’s message, left with the dis ciples after his resurrection, was one of pea and he deplored the fact that each successive Eastertide has not found ! it more fully understood.

St. Luke’s Episcopal Church. St. Luke's Church began its Easter ser- vices with early celebrations of the Holy Communions at 7, 8 and 9 a. m. The rector was celebrant at 7 o'clock, when the church was thronged with worshipers. \ Mr. Shaw, assistant priest, cele- L “ dat8and9a. m, and the rector was bers of communicants approached the altar, it being estimated that 750 received the Blessed Sacrament during the day. At 11 o'clock many scores of people had door, as the seats and aisles were filled. The rector, Rev. W. preached an Easter sermon from the text “Christ is risen from the dead, and is be come the fi: fruits of them that slept.” He said: “We stand to-day before the vi®on of a future life. We think of our immortality. We prize_every evidence of this great truth. We look with- out and within us for some pledge that we are not to perish in the grave. Nature tells us of a resurrection. A voice within each of us calls out loudly of our undy ing nature and glorious destiny. I shal not be annihilated, the language of cre- i Most convincing of all we see ist risen from the grave, and clothed with immortality, thus on Easter we stand surrounded by many and glori- ous proofs of a future life,” Mr. Moreland urged as evidence of a ure state the immensity of the uni- he infinite variety of life, the im- possi € ty of annihilating matter or force, the « ience of design iIn ecreation, the large .oortality among infant lives, and v of progress, which is of the mind, and when to this rection of Jesus Christ is added ason and the senses are convinved | of the certainty of man’'s immortality.

In the evening gold medals were award- ed George Tressly and George Neuscholz for creditable work, and John Long, John Verdenal and John Parry were honorably mentioned as deserving of credit. Central Methodist Church. Standing room only was to be found on the sidewalk at the Central Methodist Church on Mission street last night. As early as 7 o'clock every seat in the body and galleries of the church was occupied, and yet the stream of anxious worshipers kept pouring up the steps in the vain hope of getting accommodation. Dr. C. E. Locke gave a vivid portrait of the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ. 5 In consequence of the exhausted condi- tion of Dr. Locke by his day’s labors the choir, at his suggestion, interspersed some choice solos to his evening discourse. At St. Dominic’s Church. Mozart’s twelfth mass was sung at the | services at St. Dominic’s Roman Catho- lic Church yesterday. The soloists wer Soprano, Mrs. Mamie P. W. McGlade; alto, Mrs. H. Clark; tenor, Roberti Stan- tini, and bass, D. H. Cuttrell. Those who composed the chorus were: Misses M. Lambert, F. Young, A. Manning, 8. J. Duffy, Mrs. Brown, Misses M. Madden, M. Ballinger, Eve Bowlen, C. Mec- Fadden, L. McFadden, C. Farrel, E. Farrel, K. Edmonds, M. Edmonds, S. Sicklair, J. Buckley, M. Buck- ley, M. McKeon, L. Huklman, John Gil- more, M. Toby, J. Schmidt and T. Gil- more. Miss Daisy Roche was the organ- ist and the orchestra was composed of the following: Miss C. Tinnon, Frank Sulli- van, M. Chester, A. Kelly, M. Buckley, M. Millwood, violins, and J. Carrigan, violoncello. A special evening service concluded with Millard’s ““Tantum Ergo.” The tenor solo was sung by Roberti Stantini. First Presbyterian Church. At the First Presbyterian Church Rev. Robert Mackenzie delivered a sermen, taking for his text, “If a man' digshall he live again? But now is Christ risen and become the first fruit of them that lept,” Job xiv:14, Cor. xv:20. He said: “The two greatest days in the history of this world are the day of creation, when God first said let there be light and the morning stars sang together, and that day when Christ rose from the dead and filled the world with his increasing vol- ume of Easter songs. “The resurrection of Christ settles the question of another life. The grave is a pertinent fact in every man’s life. Shall he live again? Life is sweet; we are not willing to be done with it. The life of others is doubly sweet; we are not will- ing to be done with them even at the grave. ‘'he mother never sees the day when she is willing to lose her children, and after they are gone there are no waters of Lethe where she may find for- getfulness. “Would the question of immortality ever uave become a certainty were it not that over in the long array of graves this one of Christ is open and empty? Life as we know it is connected with the body, nor can we forget the dust. But as the almond tree blossoming in February tells us of a power at wor that will bring all the trees of the garden into bloom, so the open grave of Christ tells us of a power at work at whose voice all that are in their graves shall come forth.” RIELEMEN AT SHELL MOUND ational Guards and Ger- man Societies at the Ranges.

Faktor OLD LAVENDER STILL FRAGRANT Edward Harrigan Appears Once Again in a Famous Part. The Easter Opening of the Hyde Comedians at the Orpheum a Big Success., Edward Harrigan has grown much older than when we saw him last, and the play of “Old Lavender” has aged even more than its author-actor, but Harrigan is still‘an actor of remarkable originality and personal spell, and last night characterization of Old Lav was attended with sympathy and admira- tion by an audience that more than comfortably filled the California Theater, Even the oldest and staunchest admirer of Harrigan and his art could not wit- ness a performance of *“Old Lavender” It is the best that Harrigan has eve: written, and still a_great wry short of being a real play. But for all its unreal- ity of .plot and reckless bursts of song, there are several characters in it which has become al- most a classic among the few memorable figures of the American stage. There is something unefringly human Harri- gan's Old Lav—his very extravagances seem natural and consistent, his humor is good humor of the rarest sort, and his pathos is quietly and gently true. The years have not relaxed Harrigan's grip on the part with which his best efforts have been identified, and while his pres- ent company and scenic outfit are not first-rate, - there is enough character in the performance to make it curiously and genuinely attractive. .« s . The: Easter matinee at the Orpheum disclosed an entire new bill in Hyde's Comedians, as clever a vaudeville band as has been here since the palmy days of the Boston Howard Atheneum show. There are seven turns; none of a fastidi- ously high grade, but all plain, out and out variety acts, clever, capable and just the sort admired by the better class of persons who patronize the Orpheum—just the sort that have been the exception there rather than the rule during the last six months. The one serious fault in yes- terday’'s performance was the exagger- ated length of several of the acts, the seven being stretched out to cover the time usually devoted to nine or ten. McIntyre and Heath, old-time minstrel men, have a sketch of peculiar humor and idiosyncratic charm which needs only condensation to be a gem; John T. Thorn employs a very comical personality in the skit called “The Rustic Actor,” but he lingers longer than is tactful; and Charles Sweet, who, perhaps, is the only man on any stage who can interest an au- dience with tricks on the piano- forte at this time of day, overstays him- self in a lengthy monologue. The other turns pmfl(i‘;' their celerity. Williams and Walker do a spirited fifteen minutes of song and step, contrasting in their persons the linen duster nigger and satin-faced coon, winding the act up with a lively cake walk, in which pa.rtfi:lpata two pmnclns ladies of authentic ‘choco- late tint and a sumptuous drum major. The Great u(u{ette is greatest in his caricature of John Philip Sousa, whose little vanities of the baton he hits off deliciously; and Ajax, the boneless gen- tleman, executes some marvelous convo- lutions of himself. manly barytone first introduced *“That Is Love” to an Orpheum audience many yvears ago, sings several of the descrip- | tive songs that are typical of the spleler- voiced fraternity with large effect, and does really remarkable melodramatic work in a song written in glorification of the present unpleasantness; concluding with “The Star Spangled Banner” to an accompaniment of Old Glory, scenery and applause that breaks the Sabbath for blocks around.

Policeman Frank MacGrayan of the California-street station is the butt of a great deal of good-natured fun at the hands of his brother officers on account of a clever plece of stealing done under his very eves by & man whom he held under arrest. The officer saw Willlam Coleman, a wood peddler addicted to the use of mor- hine, walking up Kearny street with a s::wer—pot about the size of a barrel con- taining a botanical ss;ecimen the large- ne!lntfi which would justify calling it a tree. MacGrayan was acquainted with Coleman and scented something wrong. He accosted the peddler and by means of much cross-questioning found that the plant had been stolen from a restaurant on Clay street. Al Taking his man with him the officer went to the eating-house and found kha lady in charge, who was not aware of her 10ss until his arrival. She was greatly ex- patriotic |\ itcher, as some one had robbed her_of Helena Mora, whnsel | OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO00000‘0000 cited when she learned of the stealing of her flower and rushed to the back of the lace to inform her husband. Officer acGrayan's eyes followed her, and while his eagle optics were turned to- ward the lady Coleman cast his on four half-dollars_which were lying .on the counter, and allowed his hands to follow them. The lady returned, failed to see the money she had left and set up a wail that_she would not be able to pay her her silver. A search of Coleman reveaied the cash, but as it will be held for evi- dence the butcher must wajt for his pay.
