THE SCR ANTON TRIBUNE-MONDAY. APRIL 11'. 1898. vvlv 1 Observance IT WAS NOT what mlRht be .term ately termed a tjplout Hauler Sun eluy and tho weather was to blame for It all Tho llirealenoel inclelln Ite continuation ot the late cold map caused inuny to postpone prepara tions for their Sprint, debut and yes terday's none too balmj weather cann ed no a few of tho-e who hud made these preparation to put off their Spring show till next Sunday. In con sequence of a'l thl t'leie wus not ns great change In the line of costum ing visible ni 13 umuI at Kaster. That Kistcr wasn't piopurlv cele brated, howexer, is Knstcr'H own fault. Tho celebrants were willing and anx ious to celebinte but when KiiKter choses to fell on an unpropltious day too early in the Spiini? for celebrating purpose, K.istcr itself will have to do the suffolng. As far as some of the minor incidents of the day fire concerned, the occasion was not u whit behind former years. In church bervlccs, it mlRht be safely aald tho day was more elaborately ob served than usual The special Pio grammes of music which always at tract to the churches hundreds w ho, to r it It lightly, are not rcsular attend tc Is. weie, ns n general rule, even more ixcellint than heretofore, and that they ' had not lost their attraction was at tested by the immense congregations at all the larger places of worship. At noon, when the principal service In tho churches was over and the lame con gregations weie wending their way homeward, the central city sttcets bore a decided holiday aspect. i;veiybody wore a holiday air, If they didn't wear a costume befitting the holiday, and all In all, tho especial evidences of faster day weie by no means dlfllcult to dis cern. In the afternoon when the promen aders came out to see and incidentally to be seen, It was a matter of general comment that tlieie were moti) men than women in Spring attire. To many yes-terday was a day of great jellef and not Infrequently was heard 'Tiist In forty days," as some good Lenten resolution went to smah. Tomonow will biing further relief to other abstaineis those who put gayety and such behind them w hen Ash Wed nesday came its way. There isn t a hull In the city, probably, but w hut has tome Hind of goings on billed for to night and tho theatre folks, anticipat ing the hunger that their patroru must now experience aftei a six welts' fast, have advanced Kaster Monday U thti dignity of a holiday by ananglng two perfoimances, matinee und evening The post-Lenten season In society, as (i glance at The Tribune's society de partment Saturday will show, Is to bo a ery brisk one.
