Easter Sunaay.
HEXIV Scarlett, * ho, in the early part
of this century, was universally acknowl
edged to be the most eminent lawyer prae
ticing at the British Par, was wont to de
clare that the historical evidence for the
feet of Christ's resurrection from the dead
wu such as would convince any court or
jury in the world. Although the progress
made in theological, as in all other science,
■ince Scarlett's time is very gTe.it, nothing
has been discovered which changes the
ftate of the evidence on that question, and
today, even by the most radical leaders in
the new department of " the higher crit
icism," it s held that the central miracle
of the~Chri*tfan system i* so well attested
Bcripture narratives whatever literal inter
pretations seem to be in conflict with the
most rigid scholarship, are justified in
maintaining the verity of the resurrection
story, unless they are ready to go the
length of rejecting, on a priori ground, all
faith in the supernatural. Not only "pro
gessive orthodoxy" but conservative
Unitarianism stands firmly on the great
fonndation rock of belief that He who was
crucified on that first Good I riday in Jeru
salem, more than 1,800 years ago, rose from
the grave on the first Easter morning that
followed so quickly after.
Prom the beginning of Christian history
until now tbe doctrine of the resurrection
has been the central faith of Christendom.
Through all changes of ereeds, all conflicts
of sects, all developnents of church sys
tems, in the midst of schema and bloody
battles, too ofUrli disgracing aud at times
tbre&tecing to destroy Christianity, belief
in this supreme truth has continued un
•haken. Tbt.se who agreed in hardly any
thing else agreed in this. Millions who in
ages of skepticism, doubted almost all else,
declared that this was indisputable.
No other doctrine has done so much to
make the gosqcl powerful over human
hearts. It has been the hope of the world.
It has appealed to the tendcrest il,Hi
ties, a..swerod tho deepest longings, inspir
ed the loftiert emotions, satisfied the pre
foundest questionings. The light that
■bono by faith around the open grave of
Jesus irradiated the dark shadow of every
earthly tomb. In tbe angel that rolled the
■tone away from tbe sepulcher to which
Mary came that Easter morning, bearing
precious spices, believers saw the heavenly
agency that can and will remove the awful
burden of sorrow that crushes the hopes of
love in tbe last mortal resting place of the
beloved dead.
Therefore, Eas* r was and is, and despite
all fears and tears, all denials and derisions,
is still to be the
tbe worl<)'p—•<*!:«...,t,.r it;« every
naj, in umi i mined faith, sings, with
the spirit and Kith the understanding also,
the songs of Jesns, the Resurrection aiid
the Life!— New York Pre**.
Schi apa rklli, the Italian astronomer,
has remarkable eyesight, as an astronomer
ought to have. He sees through bis tel
escope things that of tier astronomers are
unaole to detect. He has discovered on
the planet Mercury long, cuned markings
like those supposed to be canals on the sur
face of Mars. But they can hardly be
canals in the case of M -rcury. sine: it is
not likely that Mercury is inhabited, at
least not by any race like ours Kchiaparlli
has found out that Mars turns on its
axis in the same time that re
volves around tbe sun. eighty eight days.
Hence it present* always the nne side to
the sun. as tne moon does to the »arth.

and a large amount of grain and hay. farm
ing machinery and vehicles. The loss ;s
quite heavy, as one of the barns wa; new,
and the other one a fair building. The
fire occurred between ten and eleven
o'clock. When Mr. Pollock first
noticed the fire be went to the barn and
found the door open aud two cows turned
out, making it certain that it was the work
of an incendiary. The barns were in close
proximity, and the burning of one caused
the destruction of the other. The people
of the locality of the lire have a strong
suspicion of tbe identity of the incendiary.
Near Beaver Falls, last Sunda} - night a
colored man Johnson went home
gave his wife an outrageous beating and
then lay down on the floor and went to
sleep. The woman procured a can of ker
osene, thoroughly saturated the man's
clothing and then applied a match. In an
instant he was a mass of flames. Spring
ing to his feet he burst open the door and
rushed screaming down the street.
He made for the river, but a square
away, and dashed headlong into the water
aud extinguished the flames. He i- badly
burned, but not fatally. His screams were
fearful to bear, and at every jump he
would yell, "It's muddah in de fust de
grce."

their agents have been canvassing

of Beaver, had the suit decided in her
favor Wednesday. She proved conclusive

which wa said by tbe agent to be only an

to hi s bed ever since. The letter was from
a married woman in the same town. The
injured wife is physically stronger than
her husbi.nd, and it is said that he had no

The affair has caused quite a scandal in
Wampum and neighborhood, where all the
parties are well known and are considered
highly respectable. A divorce will be the

We all hail with joy the advent cf
Spring. This section of the county needs
a railroad. If we only had a kind of cross
cut between Gallery and Tarentum. a dis
tance of about 20 miles, it would help to
wake tip this drow-y section of conntrv,
aud what a boon it would be to oil men and
farmers. Then we could supply that
ancient borough of Tarentum with oil and
honey, butter, beans and junk by the cord,
and we could drop down upon them
occasionally and take a look at the new
Court House, etc.
There i.« not much doing in this oil field.

this was the basin in which a big nest of
dusters was found. A number of these

what are supposed to be better locations,
but the drill is the great geological pointer
and will prove this matter.
A whitewashed derrick standing like a
monument over a dry hole looks like a
pelican in the wilderness and should be re
moved. The driller and the tool dresser
go hand in hand. The floor of the derrick
is their stage, and they perform great feats
of strengths lifting heavy tools as easily as
a boy would lift his drum strieks.and when
the drill has reached the hundred-foot the
man with the horn socket upon his head is
heard pounding the tools lustily. ou
would suppose him to be Thor upon the
mountains, he tries his gauge and declares
he has it to a hair.
