THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY, JULY 8, 1889. THE NAN WITH THE GRIP, Rov. Oharles W. Savage's Sermon to the Angels of Commeroce. AN ADVENTURE IN WYOMING. Disappearance of a St. Joseph Drum- mer Under Suspicious Circum- stances—A Very Hot Day at the Umaha Hotels—The Com- merocial Traveler. A Sermon to Drummers, Rev. C. W. Savidge took for the text of his serman to the traveling men at Cushman Park, Kings ii, 2, “*Show thy- sclf o man.” He said our subject this afternoon is *The Three Elements of Christian Manhood.” 1 take this subject by special request of a traveling man prosent, I addroess this sermon to *‘the angels of commerce,” though one of our sonth- ern preachers snys that you are very difforent (from the angels of the olden time. Their visits were few and far and far between, but yours are every day und everywhere I do not know exa for me to preach this sermon. Certainly it was not because you thowght mo especially libe old-time in my belicfs, this bible from lid to lid: [ Lelieve i bottom!less hell and a topless heav believe in a personal God and that the devil is an actuality. 1 believe that these two great leaders of the forces in this univers: bidding for the lov: and service of e soul, however in- ferior that soul ma But they b for you especially. ~ You know the devil has asked you to go i his serv He wants you becaus ou are army of 300,000 What_ a power youare in the field of morals andin the world of commerce. It is not strange that the princo of darkness wants you. He does not come from the pit with horns and hoofs after you. On the contrary, sin comes to you asan enticement. Satan employs men to build gilded paluces of sin that you may be entrapped. Some of you have isited that elegant ante-chamber of hell, in Chicago, where repairs on one room lately cost $75,000. Where the pictures are rare pieces of art of great value, and the statuary well nigh as fine as Phidias ever cut. The devil comes to you with the cap- tivating but vicious game of cards. He tells you that you cannot do anything else that will while away the time so quickly, and the stake you put up is just enongh to make it interesting. hearch fiend comes to you in the por- son of tho lost woman, as beautiful as a fallon angel could be. He racks his brain that he might brivg the awful pressure of temptation to bear on these 800,000 traveling men. It is not strange that so many of you fall. Few men have moral power enough to stand transportation. Many a man is a christiun at home and keeps the Sabbath, but when he goes abroad he goes to see the Spamish bull fights on God’s day, But fam glad to tell you that God bids for this mighty army of traveling knights, also He comes to you when the bill of goods is sold and speaks to you in the teachings of a mother long since dead or with a master hand he draws for you a picture of your home with ‘wife and little ones begging you to be pure and good. Yon cannot drown the still small voice of God. The divine Jesus s 10 you to-aay, “How can I give the¢ up?” Which of these great leaders will youserve? I wouldsay to these people who are here who do not travel on the road, we ought to help these men in this olce which means eternal des- tiny. Korthis fiery battle that thoy wago has all the inteusity of a life and death struggle. A kind word, an invi- tation to the house of God, and a noble example are neverlost on our brothers of the grip, God wants you to be a success, and He wants you to join his army that you may be this. He would remove all ‘ob- stacles in the way of the grandest spority. Men do not fail in this worla for lack of ability, but because of unfaithfulness and sin. A man may come from the common walks of life and still do the best work. {Stanley was born in Wales in 1840, the son of & man who was too poor to keep im, hence he was put in the poor house for a term of years. But that brave soul has gone on and up, and has carried a torch that has lighted up the dark places of the That some of you have failed to do all that you hoped to dv, need not dishearten “you. *lt is by'the ship- wreck that we learn to build ships,” and though some of you who carry the grip say “I am notas young as [ once was, my hair is turning gay,” we an- swer, *A. man is never old until his heart is old.” Age ought to bring sense and skill, At seventy years of age ono ofthe greatest spirits of the old world rose up and said: *‘I will hang the Pantheon in mid-air.” If you couldonly realize the benefits that result from being on 1's side, you would not hesitate for a moment. Read the third chapter of Proverbs aud God will tell you some of these. “Huppy is tho man that findeth wisdom and the man that gettoth un- derstunding, for the merchandise of it is better than the merchundise of silver and the gain thereof than fine gold. She is more precious than rubies and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared uato her. Length of days 15 in her right hand and in her left hand riches and honor.” . 1 will name for you three principles of christian manhood that 1am sure Our Father wants you to have, Tho fivst of theso is the blessing of Almighty God. You have had this in a good measure or you would not be here to-day under such favorable circumstances. God has been better to us all than we deserved. You look up here at me very innocently as though you never did a wrong thing in your lives, but you would not be willing to write out the record of the past and have people read it. i 1 have come to the cunclusion that some of the biggest scamps that run, go to church. A young Scotch girl came to our home the other day and told Mrs. Savidge and myself the sadaest story I ever heard; of the base betrayal by one who was called a man, Yet that thing frequently attended church, Many men have & good measure of di- vine blessings, though they do not merit them. But bf' the blessing of God I mean not only the genmeral bloss- fngs which fall upon all, but divine pardon and forgiveness. How easily obtained is thi: Every wan that trave els on the road in a legitimate line can be God’s child if he wishes. Thisprize is not to be worked for or bought, but accepted as a free gift. The sius of the life and the evil thoughts of the heart must all be left, and 4s a little child comes to its mother, so in the simplicity and honesty of our hearts must we come y why you sent to God. Then are we taken out from the number of the condemned and put in the lists of the saved. How simple that is. A Sunday school teacher wanted to tell his class how it was, and he told his boys he would give his watch to the one who would take it, But not till he came to the smallest boy was the watch grasped and held on to. It is yours to take. ‘I'here are many examples that might be given to illus- trate this point of God's blessing. Read that boautiful story of Esther, the queen, and you will see this thought: The king gave a banquet, where overy- body got drunk, and sent word iov Vashti, the queen, to como in. The queon — vefused and was from the painc Fsther, the ess, became queen in her stead. Old Morde the Jew, who had brought her up, would not bow to Ha- man, the prime minister. Thatold Jow had only one bone in s back and that was etraight. The traveling man oughtto bo like him in that res Pnrough Haman’s intrigue, the Jews in all that province were to be put to death on a cortain day. Riders on swilt horses carry the death message. Through old Mordecai, listher hears of their fate and she touches the sceptre of the king ana invites her hus- band and the prime ministor to o private dinner, When & woman would reach a man’s heart, sh ften does it through his stomach. ley are agai invited to dinner a second dny mght tho king can’t sleap. He finds by the records that old Mor: i has saved his life and has not re- warded. He compels Haman to dress the old Jew in the King’s apparvel and place him on the king's hovse, and makes him lead the horse through the city. You know the sequel. Haman is hanged and the Jews are saved. Old Mordecai is made primo minister. God’s blessiug rests on his own. His blessing saves in danger and in peril. Youmay have it. If Thad timeT would give you another example of how God can not only bless in this gencral v, but can save from sin. One of your own number who lives in my town Was last winter convieted for sin. He had a godly wife. That wife prayed in the family and said grace nt the tuble, until her husband told her that he would have no more of that **foolishness,” with an ad- jective before the ‘‘foolishneéss.” A man will fight when God crowds him into the last ditch. The wife did not give him up. Shesaid “‘these meetings cannot close until my husband is con- verted.” A meeting was appointed for that man’s special benefit. The whole charge in the gospel gun was aimed at i He said, ‘this wmeeting is one man. Wiil he give heart to God? He hesitated just a moment, then vising up in his seat he said: *‘I am that man. and I will be a christian by God’s help.” He eame to the altar and prayed for himself, but he did not get anything. God can wait a million years till the conditio fulfilled. Jac went homb his $2,500 job, mailed his the St. Joseph liquor returned his sample s liquors. Aganin he knelt at God’s altar and this time he got religion. Jack weighed 225, but ho went over that house as light as a feather, urging the most hardenod and desperato to come to Jesus. If only you will pay the price you may have God’s blessing that saves from sin. The second quality I mention issound sense, The fools are in the devil’s crowd. The sensible men are on God’s side. See an example of this: A man made money 1n 1 mounts. His wife put on her fine: d started outto cail. She saw a fine bible on the center able. She had to say something he nid, “That’s a beautiful book, what is it??’ The lady replied, *Thats bible.” **Ah,”said the caller, I’ve read it—a nice story; he her, didn’t he ? 7 That woman’s daughter had no sense. She went away to school. The mast: wrote back that she could not 1 thing—she lacked the capu old man replied, “That's_all right, vou buy her a capacity and I'll pay for it.” The first thing [ want to know when my child is born is, has he got good sense? God only can giye this and help us to cultivate it. If you have sound sense you will be saved from the vices of the day which meet you at every step. The prophet Isaiah says that the horses and oxenin his day knew more than men, and this is about true to-day. A hog wontdrink beer, butsome traveling men will. Have the blessing of God and common sense and you will steer clear of the vices. And then, too, you will have a home of your own. God pity the man that is like the mule at the stable aoor, with nothing to eat and snow all about him—with *'no one to love him,” I haye been happier and more useful in one year since my marrviage than I was in ten before. a rule, an old bache- lor hasn’t muc sense. But the true husband honors woman, loves little children and is kinder to all. If you do not reach home oftencr than once in s months, love some woman and tell her so. And at the marriage alter take the vow that binds till death, and keep that vow sacred; and that woman at homo will watch and pray for you. And I trust God may send to your home little children, and that you may bo the happiest, gladdest man this side of heaven. Sound sense will help in these linos. The third quality I name for you is bravery. (iod can’t use a coward, either on the road or in the pulpit. Bravery is needed for the traveling man, and grit of the purest quality. In the heat of battle Napoleon asked Mos- senna, ‘*How long can you hold out?” Messenna sent back word: “‘I can hold out for two hours, or for six houvs, or for twonty-four hours, or until France gains the victory.” They called Murshall Murat a soldier fop, but they never callea him that in the hour of battle, for where the balls flew the thickest and the fight was the hottest there rode the fleld marshal of wnce God’s name grow th Jow- married ity. mén McCormiclk aper wrote back to the house they 1ld not do business. McCormick sent each man a bag of white sand without a word of explanation. The men took the hint. That sand was worth thou- sands of dollars to the house. I urge you to-day, be brave in your busines Be braver still in fighting the every step of the road. Your wives at home are good and brave, for it takes a woman for a hard place. Imakea prayer for you from the heart that when you have sold the last bhill of goods and made the last trip, and you are called to make a final settlemont With the Great Employer, you wmay be able to say, “Ihave fought a good fight,” devil “ They Wero'in Wyoming. DeADpWoOD, Dalk,, July 8.-—Messrs, C. G. Wallett, representing the Bucklc Shirt company,of St. Louis; W. K. Mar- tin, formerly of W.lliam A. Wilson & Co., of Omahu, but now representing Kennara & Miilor.cigar manufacturers, of St. Joseph, and J. C. Carson, repre- dismissed | senting Lee, Clark & Andreesen, hard- ware merchants, of Omaha, all well known and representative traveling men, who frequently make the rounds of the Black Hills, have just returned from Sundance, Wyo., and they relate an experience which would indicate tifat some of the officers of justice there are very peculiar in their 1deas. On Saturday last the above named gentlemen, at the request of Mr. Mar- tin, who has frequently visited Wyo- ming, and who represented the fishing on Sand creek to be excellent, decided to make a trip out to Sundamce and spend a portion of the time in fishing. Lenving Doadwood on Saturday they veached Beulah,a small village just ncross the Wyoming line, the following lny about noon, where they took dinner at the Wheelor house, and were pro- ceading to fish in Sand cree which ~ runs through the town. Mr. Wheeler, tho proprietor, advised them that they had better desist from fishing. as it was contrary to the law, and also told them that the proprietor of the opposite hotel, one Sol Bunker by name, who was also a justice of the peace, might have them arrested and cause them some trouble. The boys, acting uvon his advice, abandoned their fishing project and went in bathing, but observing a small drag net on the bank of the croek they threw it in in sport and caught a few fish, which they immediately released and threw back into the water. Bunker’s nephew and son, having doubtless been posted for the purpose, were watching the pro- coedings and reported in dus time what they saw to the old man., In the mean- i he boys had gone on to Sundanco. On Mond: were solicit- i 3 jective houses, Meyor Frank, of the firm of Meyer Frank & Co., a dry goods establish- fore Justice Martin and nt for Mr. Wallet for sample without a li- conse. vested by the sheriff and his deputy and taken to the police court, where he was fined $20 and costs, amounting to $30. Mr. Wallett,re ling the proceeding us unjust and entively rranted, refused to pay the fine an appeal to the district court of Crook county. This display of legal k edgo on Mr, Wallett's part gave a turn to the affair which evident- Iy had not been expected, the parties thinking, undoubtedly, that their victim would pay his fine peaceably and that 10 oceasion would bo given for resort- ing to arbitr and harsh measuves which might lead them onto dangerous ground. But the cowardly piece of work having once been undertiken had to completed. A bond fixed at and pending the search by Mr. W ussociates for some one to go on his bond he was thrust into juil and put in the pen in company with a number of horse thieves, where he remained for nearly an hour, By ‘this time, however, 2 number of the leading citizens of Sundance got wind of what w i and lost no time in d brutal and outrageous. best citizens of Sundanc Todd Pettigre appearance.

At any rate Meyer L some of the so-called officers of Crook county are likely to ence some trouble before the bus- iness is done with, for Mr. Wallett determined to push the matter as far as the taw wiil allow, and he has consulted a prominent attorney of Deadwood, who will probably conduct his case for -him. It will prob: come up in the August term of cour! But this was not all. Returning to Beulah, on their way to Deadwood, the y were at once arrested for fishing on Sunday, to which they pleaded guilty, and were fined $10, which was paid. The boys think it extremely probable that Judge Bunker pocketed this fine, but as they had considerable fun at his honor's expense, and were cordially invited to **have something” on him after courtadjourned, they make no kick on that score. Taken alto- gether, they think their treatment by the civil authorities of Wyoming to have been about as shabby aud in- iquitous as they have ever experienced apywhere in their whole carcer on the road. They wish, however, to bear witness that the respectable citizens of Sundance were not parties to the affuir, but on the other hand were most out- spoken in their indignation at the out- rage.

Mr. Levy represents the firmof Denzer, Stern & Co., New York, and is now at tho Millard with a large display of sample goods for his customers to ex- amine. While exhibiting two or three black derbys, he ran his hand over them to show that the coloring would rub off, and explained the fact thata fast dye, except for brown colored hats, has never been invented. “‘But,” said he, “we will get the right thing some time.
