C. HALDANE. | SUNDAY IN' COUNCIL BLUFFS, Rev. T. J. Mackay On Relation of Masonry to Church. THE BUSINESS MEN AROUSING They Want the Board of Trade Resur- rected—The Work of Charitable Women—The Rallways Must Furnish Flagmen. The Pulpit on Masonry. The following sermon, delivered at St Paul's Episcopal church last evening, will be intercsting to the readers of the Beg, The rector, Rev. announced his subject as drew a large audicnce despite the bitterly cold weather. Tnreply tothe question *What is Masonry " hesaid: It is the result of an effort on the part of mankind for some simple rule of life and action, which while it should unite them closely together, for mutual protection should also guarantee the greatest possible liberty of thought and movement. 1f we look for a possible cause of the origin of Masonry out- side of the commonly received traditions of the order, we shall find a natural cause for its appearance. First. In the failure of the church of Christ to carry out the idea of brotherhood and fraternity proclaimed by Jesus Christ, its founder. Second. In the necessity that existed for not only freedom of action but freedom of speech and liberty of thought caused by the prosecutions of all the thinkers mers that appearcd upon the world's Were there no_other reasons these would be sufticient to_account, for the h and spread of the order. We might express the cause of the origin and growth of inone shortsentence: the necessity al freedom. usations brought against Masonry 100 ridiculous to attempt to answer. The charge of atheism s fully contradicte step which hie must take who to enter the Masonic portal. From th beginning, even before he s admitted, He must believe in € , or else remain outside, and onceadmitted no ceremonics in any church re more or better caleulated to teach im- plicit trust in God, and not in man, than the r‘l‘llulu e, jod. but It does mes each and r; the sume. Chief and principal among llll the sources of light snd teuth it enthrones as its guide, the great light of masonry, the holy scriptures. Never for a moment, from the time when as an “entered ap) reverently approaches those tures to the time when he graduates as a christian soldier under the banner of the cross, docs he ever lose sight of that sacred volume. Without it all would be confusion and Masonry Rome this sourc thosame, The ono loves datlinoss, the other loves the light. The Mason stands ut the portals of the great lodge of the universe an humble learner, F pproaches the gr secrets of God in the attitude Jesus hims describes—that of a child. His constant d knee is for more light the true Mason is he who e with what he has already received, ied feetup the world's g ion which terminute only presence of God, In its toleration of all existing religions it kes of the spirit of Jesus Christ—vide s bulls—and if the church if Christ wonld take u lesson in that respect from Ma- and cease putting between the soul of nd_his God useless “‘confessions of and bewildering *‘ru of life” and bewildering “doctrines™ it would not to lament to-day such a wide-spread de- ion of thinking men from its ranks. w, what relation d Masonry hold to the church of Christ ¢ hat is the universal body of all believers. That the secret orders in the church of Rom® bear to that church and its authorities. It is not the church nor a church and it was not intended so to be, It is an institution withm an institution. A kingdom within o kingdom. A kingdom of loyal, earnest, truth-secking men forming a part of the great kingdom of God on carth and aiming to keep before 1 a living symbol of thatotia unity wh shall one day istinguish the kingdom of God as 4 whole, . *The unity of the spirit in the bond of peace and in righteousness of life." As one lodge has a relation to all other lodges and to the grand lodge, so does Masonry acknowledge the jurisdiction of the true kingdom of God and must help for ward v moveinent which tends to uplift and redcem humanity, and spread far and wide just and beneticent views of God and man's relation to God. T have heard Musons sa; speaking of their obligations as Mason: “T'his is religion enough for me.” But such men hud not grasped the true idea of our The expression from an im- idea of what reli ally is. Re- t is not enthu: m alone, or feeling, or belief, or good works alone. True religion includes them all, 1 religion is love finding expression in ; its seat is the heart, the heart is its It begins with love of God shown in love to men, but it dos not and cannot despise its source. In so far as Masonry in- cludes our dependence upon God and our love for the brethren, it is a part of religion. but only 't s to control mo the outward than the inward principle. It teaches no particular ereed, nor has any Mason the right to measure for r within the boundaries of the lodge, ht of a brother to W ip according to any creed for which he hold vener- ation and love. * The Mason who derides the faiths n(l ligion as held by the vast majority of christians is guilty of that intolerence which he condemns in others and that man who declares that Masonry is religion enough for him forgets one of the great truths of Masonry, viz: that reason cannot grasp the secrcts of the Infinite. There is always something undiscovered in Masonry which ought to teach its followers the necessity for faith. There are times when we can only revere, believe and trust, and even in the ordinary affairs of life we are governed more by what we believe than what we know. * % %" e founders of Masonry had no ideas of cutting of the order from all connection with the church of God,—to make it antagonistic to the church or to render the exercises of religion unnecessary by its ex- istence, Masonry teaches nothing that christians do not teach, but christians teach more than Masonry teaches, and yet there is a vast amount of misunderstanding apon this point. 1 have heard ministers ference bettween M lies i the fact th this life, not with the life to come. his 1 am prepared to deny. It is this view of the church as an insurance society for the future t has caused so many men to The church in_not an s @ place for the build up of cha ie church does not sav an: & man saves himself. The same thing true of Masoury. It does not save a man. It cannot make an honest wan out of a born knave in spite of its obligations any more than a church can. * * % The difference between the church and Masonry lies in the fuct that the former makes the highest mor- ity the end of its objects, while the latter s the promotion of truth: of light: of rger and freer conceptions of God and right and eternity * The reverse of th { Clirist is the uunlm of Ma- B e Su) 'o call the us, but sinuers to |v|v\munu. T while " “1 came not to he siw- already select in the citadel, rt that the dif als only with ul wood enough to be admitted into m ranks.” There needs to be to-day a quickening of spirit of fellowship aniong us; more ten- forcach other's faults; more for- givenessy more of that feeling which is ex Dressed in the lodge by tne word brother; more of the practice of the virtues pro claimed in the lodge room: more of the de termination to not only meet upon the level and part upon the square in_open lodge, but v walk of lifo to continue thut same it in our relations with all men. So shall 1 see that our professions and practices n perfect harmouy. But to be perfect in spirit and not generous with our means is like professing religion without practicing it. The absence of the true spirit of generosity isthe bane of our churches today. M that profess religiou pay their ministers their church rates wore grudgingly thau th do their taxes. They profess to love God with heart, soul and miad, and_their brother as themselves, but they would die of starva tion in & month if their love of seif was 1o greater than their love of God and their brother. It is the shame of our beloved Masonry also. No close-fisted, penurious man can be a Mason. He may be a Mason by virtue of his , but never can a man be a true Mason who is not open-hearted and erous; who does not clothe the naked, the hingry and bind up the wounds of the afficted be liberal only with that which is our own ;o be generous only when to gi deprives us of aluxury or comfort, this is Masonry indeed wul Cross-cut saws.

The meeting of the board of trade which was to have been held this evening has been postponed until Wednesday evening, on ac count of the “Old Hickory™ ball. Atan in- formal meeting which was held Saturday evening at the ofice of Odell Bros,, it was decided to reorganize the board, and a com- mittee.composed of Messrs. Gleason, Merriam and Weaver, were appointed to solicit for membership. The new board is to be com- posed of at least forty members, and the ad- mission fee is fixed at &0. There is some talk of running the new board in connection with the Council Bluffs club, but the idea aroused a diversity of opinion. Itis generally conceded that the old board failed to accom- plish what it ought to, while the club is mak- ing a decided success of itself. It may be that the two would not work well in double harness, but there is no question but what the club could handle some of the business much better than the board of trade. The club has thus far been run solely as & social organization, and some of the members wish it continued as such. Others desire to have bu committees appointed which shall answer the purpose of a board of trade, 'The meeting on Wednesday evening is to fully determine these points and map out a line of action for the future. Whatever course they decide to pursue it is hoped that it will be much more effective than the old method, and that this city m at last feel the effects of having o lively, wide-awake and energetic organization of business men. A more favorable opportunity than the pres: ent hag never presented itsclf, and such an organization, if rightly conducted, would be the means of realizing the bright visions of a splendid future for Council Bluffs, Splendid Business Opening For the right man who has a capital of $10.000.

After getting thawed out over the city’s hard coal, he began to manifest pugilis- tic propensities, and soon had a very fair imi- tation of Donnybrook Fair at full blast. The majority of the prisoncrs threw their hands, but Jailor Galvin called for two more cards and drew two trumps. With a_fult hand of clubs he entered the game. Both parties played hard for awhile but the ofticer soon raked in all the boodle and piaced his opponent in a cell by himself.
