They Crowd Into Fairmount Park and Rush For Manawa--The New Ogden Landlords—An Eles vator Burned. our Years of Church History. Yesterday was the fourth anniversary of the reorganization of the First Baptist church in Council Bluffs under the pastorate of Rev. D, H, Cooley, D. D,, aud at the morn- ing hour that divine took occasion to review briefly the work accomplished during this time. The sormon was full of suggestions for practical work along religious lines, He used as a text I Samuel vii:12. In introduc- ing the subject proper, he said; “It is the dictate of religion as well as good judgument to commemorate gicat events which God has accomplished with men. * * * This was tho practice of God's people in ail time. The children of Isracl £ct up a stone as a re- minder of their deliverance from thefr strange gods and their victory over their encmies in battle, * * * For four years we bave sustained our present relation as pastor and people. During all this time God has given us success in all departments of church work, This shows to me that he has a work to be done_in Council Bluffs, which He expects us to do.” After expounding the scriptural subject at length, the speaker gave acourse of intercst- ing facts in connection with that church and organization. He said the Baptist church was not a fashionable body, nor did it strive for popular favor. It had 1o presidents and but few governors, judges, cte. Some of its members had been elevated to these po- sitions, but when they had acquired public favor, they had joined some other and a more’ fashionable church. The Baptist church is singularly simple in its articles of faith, und its rules of practice are those laid | deep cut that s t5 admit _the etectric motdr line to Fairmount, and the attractive lake and foundations just completed by the park Assembly hug hoen the ot tive point of the throngs of ple of the twin citios, but that_place paratively deserted yesterday, and all in terost centered in the park. The number of visitors was actually surprising, yet there is every indication that as soon as the motor cars are running to the park, yestorday's scenes there will be repeated every Sunday. - onsure seckors was com- Houses and lots for sale on monthly payments, or terms to suit, by C.

Aside from the numerous burglaries perpe- trated during the past fow weeks, several un- successful attempts to enter residences in various parts of the city have boen reported. The last was Saturday night, when the md- night prowlers tried the windows of the resi- dence of W. C. Estep, of the undertaking firm of Field & Estep, That gentleman re- turned home from a late call just as they were prying up the window of his bed room. As e went up the k they skipped over the back fence, Se 1 similar cases have been reported, and demands are mude for better police protection. It is urged that the presentsize of the force is much too small for a city with the popula- tion of Council Bluffs, The protection of the business part of the city is not of the best, and the residence portions are left almost ub: solutely without police patrol. Ev v months an outbreak of the criminal classes brings this matter prominently before the public, and the demand is repoated. Until the couneil is ready to accede to this de- mand, the only surc resource for the citizen will bo to arm himself, with a Gatling gun and keep watch for the lawless marauders. bt iy Money loaned on furniture, pianos, diamonds, norses, buggies or anything of value at low ratesof interest. No down by Christ himself. No elaborate liturgy, surpliced choir or gaudy trappings to e the eye, but rather ihe spiritual power which God gives to reach the heart and the soul. He thought the lack in popularity was due in a measure to the lack in advertising the church. If the Methodist, Presbyterian or I iscopal church, have an aunual gathering, the papers give them column after column of the proccedings. But uwot so with the Baptist church. It strove to picase God rather than to win the applause of men. The membership now exceeds 3,000,000 souls, and while one hundred years ago but one in sixty-five of the population of this country were Buptists, now one in twenty-two is the ratio. He said the Baptist church had more converts in foreign mission work than all other churches combined. The Baptist church b rger membership than any other church. He then referred to the history of the local organization. He bemouned the fact that luck of harmouy had existed within it. He said doubtless there were souls now in pe dition who would bave been saved but for this. If the devil can get God’s peovle by the ears, he has then accompiished his pur- pose iu destroying the eficiency of the church. The church organized with a mem- bership of fifty-six, two hundred and thirty- oune had been added, thirty-three had _been n excluded and one 2,200 had been raised, be- sides quite ] sums for special benevolent and Sunday school purposes, has been the best one, received into membership. The church is now self-sustaining and domg a grand and suc- cessful work in tne city. All these results the speaker attributed to the fact that God had been the helper of the church along the lines indicated. —He believed that greater ro- sults than these would be accomplished in ar to come. course of his sermon he referred to the building of the new bridge and the motor lines, electric and steam (to Manawa), as a 1 developing the material cil Bluifs, but as a very bad thing viewed from a moral standpoint, inas- much as it all put a premium on Sabbath desecration, People would patronize them sit the various pleasure resorts about to the detriment of their spiritual weltare. This was productive of a low re- higious life with many professed christians— this Sabbath visiting, ete 50 ref to the evils of intemperance, enliousns 1 is, he said, rampant in the city, as an excuse the fuct that for years this was a frontier city, ana all trunk lines of railroad center here., This evil is being bettered gradually, with good prospects of a final disappearance at an early day.

THE CZAR'! 1IC ARMY, Verestceagin, the Artist, Writes of His Country's Defenses. In accordance with my promise before leaving New York I send you herewith a few facts regarding Russia’s military affairs, writes the great Russian artist Vasili Verestchagin to the New York ‘World. The information concerning the vast organization of the Cz diery I procured from an army ofticer of high rank, whose name. if I were per- mitted to give it, would be at once recognized as a military authority. In our preparationsfor war we a simists, always expecting the worst. The Russian military organization is under the direction of Gen. Obrutchefl, Chief of the General Stafl, with Gen! Vannovsky, Minister of War. These are assisted by Gen. Kuropatkine Skobelell’s bosom friend and Chief of Obruthefi has devoted a great deal of time and attention to Russin’s defenses on the German frontier and is uently unpopular in Berlin. In- deed, it is said that the young German Emperor during his recent visit to St. Petersburg displayed his dislike of the worthy Russian organizer oy practically snubbing him altogether. Like Count Taafe, in Aus Obrutchefl was omit- ted from the list of recipients of Germa decorations. Vannovsky is a_very 3 precise officer, but Kuropatkine may be called the very soul of the military or- ganization in Russ He is a highly inte man, and although his is_not of that brilhant, that “telegant’” description as was Skobelefl's he is exceedling brave: quite a num- ber of horses were killed under him, any cases of ammunition have at dif- ferent times been exploded at his side, he has been wounded at least five or six times, and yet he is hale and hearty, and is certain to devote all his strength and abilities to the task of averting the German onslaught sooner or later to beardown on France and Russia. i THE ARMIES OF EUROPE E IMATED.

The first Sunday in May witnessed an ani- mated scene in Fairmount park., Early in the day tors began to assemble there, and during the afternoon it was estimated thut there were at least 4,000 people in the park. The center around which they all seewed to gather was the little artificial lake, and countless little groups, with their lunch baskets and other accompaniments of a geuvine picuic day, were to be seen in every direstion, Hundreds were thore from Omuha, but the majority of them were resi- dents of the city that lay spread out at the foot of the bluff, Many of them had never before park, although they lived within sight of it for woeks, and some for months. To these the scenes spread before them were indeed & revelation. They had heard of the prowy All the attrac: open to-morrow visited the walls, the pleasaut drives, the shady glons, an withal, the charming picturesqueness favored svot, but they could not coni- nd it wll without seeing it.

The delightrul weather was an ineentive to get out of doors und go sowmewhere, and suriostay Lo see the work being done on the time to prepare yet.” But at last we have r 1 that underestimation of one’s adversary is the first step on the road of defeat, and therefore we are now getting ready in earnest—in a entific fmanner!’ Our aim is a far *hing one; 1t consists of nothing short of enabling ourselves to resist the on- slaught of the whole League of the Peace, even if it were to be reinforced by Engiand and Turkey—to conduct war simultaneously in Burope and Asial In consideration of such an emerg- y we make the following calculation of military for In the front line Ger- many and Austria combined ean bring out about million and a half men against us; then, judging from her present at- titude, France will either t her- self to that number, or else reinforce her army by another million of men. Bearing this in mind; we are preparing to face the enemy with 2,000,000 me the first line, and to be able toreinfos these on the second line by 1,000,000 more men, independently of suen mili- tary forces as would be ready for action on the side of the Caucasus, Turkestan, and Siberia, Such a calculation of military forces affords some foundation to hope for sue- cess; at the same time, however, we have to admit from the start that the massing of Russian forces on the west- ern seat of the war would be much slower than that of the German army. Therefore it has become indispensible for us to take special measures that would enable us to st the first pres- sure of the enormous massed forces of the enemy, since, owing to the higher I}L fection of their railroad net and er distances over which their army would have to be mobilized, the enemy will be ready sooner than we could be. THE THREE SEATS OF WAR. We are prepared to see the first en- counter result comparatively to our dis- advantage, In order not to be beaten in that fivst trying period we have been for the last eight years energetically praparing three seats of war adjoining the three military distr —those of Vilna, Warsaw and Kief. Even at the vresenttime in each one of these dis- tricts a separate army can be mobilized in nearly the same la; of time as would take for the mobilization of the German--and certainly us fast as would be mobilized the Austrian army. We caleulate, and not without found- ation, that, were we to assume @& purely defensive position on our own lines, our armies stationed in the thiee frontier districts would be amply sufficient to withstand the first shock of the enemy until reinforcements should come from THE OMAHA DAILY Biio: he~iffterior military districts.

There can be no dount about the final result. No matter at what cost, no mat- r how many years the war shouid last, we would fight the enemy ¢ step, and peace would be conluded only then when “'there will not remain a single man of the enemy on Russian soi In case luck should be against us in the beginning, we would not be afraid to fall back, burning down every eity, town and village, not only up to Mos- cow—NMoscow included—but even as far as Kazan, and Kazan included. Were we driven to it, we would burn every- thing yet further east, in our firm con- viction that the enemy would cortainly be beaten in the end, retreating, would surely be annihilated. There is no need to enlarge on the qualities of our infantry. Sufficient to recall the expression of Napoicon the First: *It is enough to kill a Russian soldier— you lave yet to nail him down to the ground. So far as numbers, material conditions and instruction go, our artillery would not yield a point to the TIHE INF COSSACK R As to the caval direction are upplies in that inexhaustable, almost ‘We can bring forward such enormous cava ted Burop: masses as could net be duplica- the united efforts of the whole of In the first line we have, all ready, nearly 200,000 dragoons ahd Cos- sacks; in the second line we can mus- ter large masses of (unprepared yet ina rular way) herkesses, Bashkirs. Kirgheez and Turcomans. Ail of thos are panting: for action, and if the Government does not proceed right now to organize them into ular fighting its it is solely becuuse of the fear that hould turn out to be an additional en in times of pence. Those nation- alities, added to our Cos: k reserves, would supply, if need be, 200,600 more mounted men. Were a cavalry of such a description let loose on the encmy’s land it would not only refuse to spare telegraph poles and railrond lines, but literally would sweep all before it in those places through which it would pass. L In round numbers we have now from 800,000 to 350,00 soldiers on our western and southwestecn frontier, and within ten days those could be so reinforced as to number half a milhon men—a force sufficient for offering the first repulse to the enemy in the districts of Warsaw, Vilna and Kief. Having shaken off all entangling alliances and adopted the policy of “free hands,” we can now make our minds easy concerning the League, whose ends wehave been serv- ing to our own disadvantage. We can and must wait, wait and wait. without minding such as praise us, nor such as, on the contrary, get ungry at us. That we have no need to enlarge our terri- tory any one will believe, and on the other hand it would pbe dishonorable in us to give up our own—a fact which the people are prompt to i FARM NOTES, The fact that trotting stallions are selling at thousands of dolia wch, demonstrates that the business ison a firm foundation.
