GREAT SUNDAY AT MANAWA, Pleasnre Seckers Enjoying the Aguatic Sport—The Chautaine qua Programme Com- pleted—Personals, Pualpit Patriotism, Tho Rev. Dr. Cooley, at the usual morn- ing hour for services at the First Baptist church, yosterday, spoke espscially to the soldiers and sailors who responded to the invitation given the Grand Army of the Re- public members to attend uivine services at that church. The pastor took for the basis of his remarks the verses of tho 137th psalm: “If 1 forges thee, oh Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not re- member thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.” The words of the text are an expression of most fervent patriotism of the captive Jews for their holy city and love for their native land. 1t is typical of christian love, which is the basis of all patriotism. True pa- triotism and religion go together. Every true christian 18 a patriot. Every part of God's book encourages pa- triotism. Every expression and teachin of the christian religion and the bible encour- ages men to love their country with a deep, undying, intense devotion. Itis so through every part of the sacred writings in the oid testament, and when you come to the new testament the same pervading love of coun- try is taught. “I could wish myself ac- cursed of God,” says one inspired wr 3 “for the wickedness of my kinsmen,” Take the whole tenor of the "bible teaching and christian earnestness and yon will find taught. by precept and example a lesson of deep, s dying love of country. Itisa principle that is cherished aud_encouraged throughout the word of God. ‘he purer and holier a man is the stronger and nobler is hie love of coun- try, Patriotism does not come through any process of studys it is innate and_God-given. n your hearts to-day you will find it. inex- tricably associated ‘with your purest christian thovghts and principles, It is 80 with you first because our coun- try is the best God ever gave to man. It is a wonderful land, with every variety of ¢ mate, with its north and south and its cast t, an expanse so great that only a mind can comprehend it, a land of mountains, plains and valleys, evorywhere blessed with fruitful vigor. Our govern- ment is the accretion of wisdom and ex- perience of all the world's ages, and it's best minds guided by the overruling wisdom of God, and our constitution, Gladstone says, is the most wonderful ever struck off by the hand of man. It is sublime in its purity and simplicity. It affords protection to person and property, and protection and freedom, to conscience. We have no landed aristocracy. All are equal before the law, and all are American citizens. The Romans bonsted that to bea Roman citizen was greater than to be a king of any other country. Here wo are all kings, all citizens of a country grander than Rome’s proudest hour. The world accounts_patriotism higher than all other virtues and crowns the patriot with the highest'honors. Fov this reason it will never let us forget Thermopyle and Leoni- das, For this reason we cav never forget our own heroic dead or the debt of gratitude we owe them, They will be honorea as long as civilization exists, for the motives that actuated them were of the purest patriotism. It {8 the motive that gives character to the act. To shoot down a man may be murder, but to slay him on the field of battle in de- fense of his country may be a most noble act. Imay be a sheriff,* and in the execution of my duty hanga man, and it bea just and praiseworthy act. It was not ambition that led the American soldiers. Ambition has been the cause of my bloody wars. It was not for the conquest of 'another country that caused the veople all over the mnorth to spring to arms and offer themselves vic- tims on the battiefield. Ambition was the motive that prompted the traitors of the south. The southern leaders wanted cotton to be king. It was ambitious and mercenary motives that inspired the leaders of the south to build up a great empire which they shouid rule. The motives of a greut majority of the southern soldiers were good, but they were deluded by the state sover- eignity idea. ‘Was the end they sought worthy the great sacrifice required? What was their great underlying idea of this war? Ambition, Rome all through her thistory said she must be the ruler of the world; that was her idea, Napoleon struggled for an empire that should embrace all Kurope. Every American patriot who fought on the battlefield fought to realize no man's ambition. Our first war was for dependence and freedom; our late war was to determine whether we had a right to exist as a nation. Our motto, “E Pluribus Unum,” in an inspired declaration of what we are and must ever be— oneof many, If a state has a right to secede then a city or village has the same right, and to throttle this monster of dis- union was what the northern soldier went to battle for and what will make them patriots through all time. The destruction of sla- very was one of the great accomplishments of the war. It would never have been de- stroyed but for the war. Here is a question ‘we must ask ourselves: Are we justified in the awful sacrifice of life we made?! Whatis the verdict of history! The end accom- plished has compelled eveon the conquered to rejoice to-day in their defeatand our victory. There are no truer patriots now than those who took up arms against us. It settled for- ever state rights and nullification. Another question: Was a resort to arms necessary! Could not. statesmanship have settled the questions{ It was tried in vain. The Cal- houn doctrine, the Missouri compromise, the fugitive slave law upheld by Webster, and the Crittenden comnromise in 60 were all in vain, The battleficld had to settle this :]ucntlon: only tho soldiers who fought and ied could settle it: only to you and not to the statesmen, do we cwo thoe debt of grati- tude for the nation’s life. How sweet must be the reflection to you, soldiers, to-day, that the end sought was so noble and the victory gained was 80 complete, and that to you aione is due the credit. To preserve this nation is worth the lives of all this genera- tion. It is sweet to die for one's country. Remember, General Wolfe when he lay dy- ing on the bloody Heights of Abrahatn, spoie to the patriots of all future age: declared after being told hi mies had been vanquished, tent.” After an eloquent peroration addressed directly to the soldiors present, the congre: gation joined in singing the national hymn, My Country "Tis of Thee,’, and were dis- missed.

Yesterday was, without exception, the reatest day in the history of Lake Manawa. ie attractions offered and the crowd in at- tendance both fur surpassed those of any day since Munawa became known to the world as @ charming pleasure resort, and first recoived its quota of visitors from the pleasure loving peovle of the twin cities aud vicinity. The principal attraction was the repetition of the vrogramme rendered Saturday afternoon by Captain Paul Boyton, which was described in yesterday's Ber, and the ball game at Athletic park between the Garneaus and the Diamonds was ulso a good drawing card. The weather during the morning wus not particulerly favorable, and the ouulook for the afternoon was rather disheartening. Shortly atter noon, however, the sky cleared, and the flow of humanity' towasd the lake was soon at high tide, where it remained until evening, Colonel Reod, of the motor line, pressed into line everything that would keep the track and carry passengers, still the accommodations were inadequate to the { domand, AS soon ua & train renciied v Hroudway depot 1t was besieed by 4 crowd, which at once began to climb in through the doors and windows, without waiting for the incoming passengers 1o get out. Not a trip was made to the lake during the aftornoon on which three hundred passen- gers or more were not carried. It was a mad rushon the part of thousands to getto Manawa, and thoy scomingly cared for nothing 'else. Evory dummy and motor train from Omaha brought additional hun- dreds, and it was after 6 o'ciock before the stream began to decrease, although good sized londs were taken down' until late in the evening. At the lake it was almost impossible to handle the constantly inereasing crowd, and | every restaurant, ice cream stand and booth, o hotel, was rushed with the busies t day’s work ever experienced tiere. The day’s programme had been arranged by tho parties interested in the motor line, amers, restaurants, etc, at the lake, had all taken sto and pledged es 1o secure the necessary amount to pay all expenses, and the surplus was to be divided according to the stock held by each. 'The steamers were hired for the day. Early in the afternoon, the crowd began to £0 across the lake, and transportation could not be furnished fast enough. It was esti- mated that fully £300 was lost in_this way, and it was largely owing to a misfortune that happened to the steamer M. F. Rohrer, The new boiler for the steamer had not ar- rived, and it was necessary to run the new engines with the old one. It was not large enough, and, on the first trip across, the strong northwest wind drove the steamer hard aground on Manhattan beach. It was her only trip for the day, and aundreds of people were unable to secure passage in | conseauence, Hundreds of carriages were driven aronnd to the beach, and toll was collected at the bridge. Many of those who were not pro- vided with carriages, and could not socuro steamer passage, stood in a dense throng on the north shore and gazed wistfully across 10 Manhattan beach, ¢ which Captain Boyton gave his exhibition. The base ball game drow its share and the game thero helped to divert the attention of several hundred from their dis t- ment. The hotel bulconies and all through the moved back and forth. smoothly until the aguatic over, when the thousands assembled on the south shore madea break for the boats. It was then that the first accident occurred. A crowd of about 230 people was. od upon the landing dock, when the “Nellie Kellar? steamed up with 'a small load of passengers. All on the dock, and the impatient crowd pushing in the rear, were - anxious to obtain passago back to'the other side of the lake. All was crowdiug and_confusion, the tumnlt being more than the frail stuging would stand. The steamer struck it quito forcibly and the dock went down. It was about four feet above the water, which was nearly five feet deep. As tho' stage went down with a crash a chorus of screams and cries for assistance filled tho mr. The crowd behind kept surging onward for a few soconds and several were precipitated into the lake who would othorwise have becn out of dangér. The Scene was a ter- riblo one for & short time, and_bade fair to lead to a serious loss of life. Those who went down first were struck by falling planks and badly bruised, while ia numerous instances other persons falling on top of them pushed them under the surface. For a fow_scconds pandemonium reizned supremo. It was every man for himself, and nothing was thought of the women and children, who wero trodden upon by some of the frantic individuals who should have looked after them. The mad rush to get out greatly increased the danger, which would otherwise have been very iittle, us the depth of the water was not great enough to be serious of itself. Cantain_Anderson, of the Merchants’ police. T. B. Baldwin, M. Wohlman and o few others crowded to the front, and did much to quiet the panic, and assi fortunates out of their perilons position. fow sustained painful injuries, among them Mrs, Kauffman, of Owmaha, who was badly bruised ond sustained a terrible nervous shock. It was very fortunate that the affair did not result more disastrously. Many had clothing torn and ruined, and the l0ss in that way will amount to considerable. Shortly after this accident another plank of the gangway went down in about a foot of water, but no- serious injury resulted, al- though several ladies who were on the fall- 1ng stago were_considerably frightened at the tumble and attendant wetting. Loud and vigorous condemnation of the partics owning the steamers was heard on every hand for allowing unsafe landings to be used, especiully when such a crowd was on hand as was thero yesterday. No precautions were talen to keep the crowd back, and it is owing more to good luck than to good man- agement that thero are no frightful fatalities toreport n connection with the day’s re- suits. This fact wiil greatly injure the lake, unless the interested parties see to it that ample arrangements for such accommoda- tious as shall effectually prevent a repetition of yesterday’s accident are carried out im- mediately. 4 Sl Dangler vapor stoves at_cost—change location.

But Old Ansel Carpenter Has Not Done Railing Against Women. *T will be one hundred and two years old in July,” piped old Ansel Carpénter to a reporter who asked him the ques- tion, The little, dried-up old man was found in his rocking chair beside the kitchen fire in his niece’s house, on Genesee street, Lockport, N. Y. His niece, Mrs. Lydia L. Harmon, is fifty-eight years of age, and is the youngest daugh- ter of the centenarian’s youngest brother. Up in old Vermont,on the granite hillg, amid the atmosphere of the forest pines, almost within earshot of the rev- olutionary musket shots of our fore- fathers, Baby Ansel breathed his early life into a strong robust youth. He was the youngest of seven brothors, all the sons of Woodbury Carpenter. His grandfather, Benjamin Carpen- ter, with a brother, came over from England either in the Mayflower or at about that time. There i3 no doubt that the present Ansel savors of the revolutionary period. When questioned about his early life the old muan said he had been having one of his poor days arnd did not remem- ber well, writes a correspondent of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. He told how, when a boy, he came io the cen- tral part of New York state and worked for the farmers, many of whom served under Washington, and told reminis- cences and stories of the early war and struggle for independence. The old man would be engrossed so in his story that he would lose himself and wander off on the stories of bears he had killed and other adventures. Old as he is, he is st11l able to walk around and is shaved regularly once a fortnight. In appenrance he is a shrivelled, driep-up old fellow, bent with age, with with long, white hair, and wears a high black beaver hat that looks as if it, too, came aown from the revolutionary period. His face is long and narrow. The flesh is very pale. The eyes are small, black and sharp, although sunk far in the head, and bushy eyebrows jut out over them. The nose is prominent and the eyes are large. . Carpenter’s arms and legs are mere bones, and it seems almost impossible to imagine him able to be about, yet on pleasant days he is a familiar sight on our streets. For 101 long years this man has been a bachelor, and his railings against women are familiar to all who know him, Carpenter never had much edueation, but was a guick observer of human char- acter, He is an carmest church-goer, and when the woather is pféiéunt and He he is able to be out he goea pogularly to the IMirst Methodist churolw .~ He has lived here for the'fist twenty vears, and has never missed 9y election, either local, state or nnt.{éua .and has always voted the straight.ropublican ticket, 10 Yo His desire was to go to fhe Washing- ton contennial in New Yorkiand feels very anud that he is as old would have been sent to Nbw York, but it was feared his ago preetuded such n lengthy trip. ot Lockport’s centennarian, bids fair to last another ten years, 1 1 i = L An Economical Milfipnaira, Tt is said that the day *Old Hutch,” of Chieago, made 1,000,000 on wheat he entered w Chicago barber shop and asked for a shave, says the Boston Globe. This was a few hours before he made the $1,000,000. Before the barber administered the lather," Hutch” asked what the tax was to be. Tho barber re- plied that the price was fifteen cents. “Hutch” said fifteen was too much, but t he would give ten. The rber refused to be knocked down,so “*Huteh® went across the street and got shaved . Thus encouraged he went abroad in the market place and shaved wheat until he made $1,000,000.
