DEDICATED THEIR NEW HOME, } {Omaha Unitarians Happily Oonseorate a Handsome Oburch Structure, SERMON BY REV. LEARNED OF ST, LOUIS, He Tells of the Progress of Thought in the Religious World and the Aim of the Unitarian Chureh, The outer world was cold and wet, and dark and dreary yesterday morning, but within tho now Unitarian church, on Cuss stroot, thoro was the atmosphero of summer timo, the warmth of social communion, and the poetry that usually accompanies the roligious worship of refined and cultured peole. ‘Tho handsome new edifice, a description of which appeared in Tie SuxpAY Bei ormally dodicated at 11 o'clock yestorday morvng, The interior of the church was neatly and boautifully decoratea with bouquets of choice cut flowers, blooming plants, and great sproading palms and other folinge, making a miniature flower garden out of the chancel ledge and the largo alcove recoss bohind the pulit intended for the pipo organ and the choir. Yollow, white and pink chrysanthemums, full blown roses of different hues, skeins of smilax and numerous otner small foliago plants had been artisticaily placed about the room and tho result was very ploasing. The two laree open grates in the cornors of tho cast sido threw out . cheerful glow and the small potted plants that lined the mantels above the fire pecped out invitingly through the portieres, tegan the Services, The house was well filled with an audience of highly cultured and intelligent people. Promptiy at 11 o'clock the dedicatory exer- clses began with an organ vrelude. Rev. Newton M. Mann, pastor of the churen, Rev. T, B. Forbush of Cbicago, Rev. J. C. Learned of St. Louis, Rey. Mary A. Safford of Sioux City and Rabbi William Rosenau of Omaha, occupied seats in the pulpit. The congregation joined in singing the old standard hymn, “From All That Dwell Be- low the Skios,” and then Rabbi Rosenau read the Scripture losson, He selocted tho LXXXIV, Paalin. Then tho audience sang a hymn written by Rev. Newton M. Mann, tho first stanza of which reads : What depth of faith in Gothic plles, With vaults aspiring to the skies, Whore art majestic sits nnd smiles Upon the work of centuries. Rev. Mary A. Satford of Sioux City then offered the dedicatory prayor, After the singing of another hymn tho dedicatory ser- mon was preachod by Rev. J. C. Learned of Bt. Louis, The earnest divine read a part of tho fourth chapter of Paul's letter to the Phillipians, as an index to the drift of his discourse, Ho began by saying that away bacl in the thirteenth céntury Abbott Joachim had a somewhut remarkable theory of the progress that the human race should make in religious work and worship, and tho samo idea had at various times since found favor with promi- nent thinkers, Three Ages of Religious Progross. Jonchim held that the progress of roligion should carry the human mind through three distinet periods, First, the age of the Father—that of authority and dis- cipline; then the age of the Son— that of imitation and example; and then tho age of the Holy Spirit—that of reason and relianco upon revealed truth, Dr. Tomplo has advocated something of the same idea, and we find it every once in a while 1u the minds of modorn chirch members. Wo find people in various churches wno seom to have grown away from the particulur form of religious” doutrine taught by tho church they seiected in their younger days, Many of them remainin the church, but they are not satisfied. They are ready to pass on to a more oxalted view of God, but the churches have made no provision for graduating their members, Eacn denomina- tion has been organized with the thought of being a finalty. Fach purticular creed is perfect and con- clusive in its scope, the Jeadors think, and tho idea of graduating their members and permitting them to pass on to s form of worship and religious velief more in keep- ing with their intellectual conceptions of this sucred subjeot is uttorly foreign to the plan of nearly all church theology. No church is willing to admit that it is behind tho age or is not up to the highest enlighten- ment of the century now passing, It mat- tors not if tho church formula be so ancient and fossilized that it serves only to dry up and dwarf the souls of men, its adherents will still waintain that they are following the only true and authentio way to reach the highest good for the humau soul. Too many churches are like a trunk with a spring lock. It is easy to get into them but thero is no means of egress without bursting the kinges. What Religion is Best. That form of religion,” said the speaker, s best for o man which will make him tho best man. But he must believe in it. It must bo a real religion to him. There are somo, possibly, who cannot sea far beyoud tho symbols that are used to impross tho spiritual lossons upon tho mind. 1hey may receivo moro real benefit from the presenco of cortain utensils of wood and stono or trappings of ecclesiastical raiment than they possibly could from some more intelloctual presentation of the truth, There are forms cf worship that are crudo and dark, but they may be the best that some miuds can compre- houd.” Tho speaker then said there was dangor sometimes wn tryiug to transfor the wor- shippor from une form of religious coremony to something more intellectual. Peoplo some- times throw off old forms, but find that tho ew forms to which they have gone do not meet the requirements, and they are apt to get lost in tho desert of uncertainty. Plan of Unitavianis) He spoko of the Unitarian church faith. The Unitarian church is intended for those who have broken away from the shackles of the crecds and who are Liberal enough and goncrous enough to allow others to hold their privato opinions upon disputea subjects of theology, and who desire to livo upright, earnest, honest lives and stand upoa their porsonal houor in the church. Oue rule of the church was that the mbmbors should not make professions or try to teach beliefs that were visionary and uncertain at best. Too many churches en- couraged people, especially “the young, to nako religious professions that they did not understand and never would understand, the very firststep in some denominations ‘was to teach the young member an act of sincority which in after years would appoar 10 him as the rankost sort of sophistry. Tho Unitariau church bolleved, tho speaker said, 1 good living, in sincerity'aad honesty. It was au casy matter to follow the routine of religious porformances prescribod by sowe of the croeds, but to live good, earnosf, honost lives was o very differont undertaking. Tho Unitarlan churoh did not require any sym- hols or signs, or ecclesiastical acts necessary to membership, A desire to live a pure, hon- est upright lifo was the prime factor in tho roquiroments of its membership. 1f at any time a member wished to depart, there were 1o barriers sot up to hold him in tho ohurcn, He coald go without reproach, providing his 1ifo haa been that of @ sincere, honest soul searching for truth and light. The audience gave the spoakor tho most caroful and undivided attention from first to lust of tho address. % Unitarianism in Omaha, Rov. Newton M. Manu then made a state- ment with reforeuce to the church. He said there wus 1o authontio or connected history of the Unitarian obureh in Omaha, but he bad loarued thatit was first organized in August, 1800, in the old Kuights of Pythias hall. The first trustees wore Thomas Davis, O. P. Ingalls, Edward Wright, E. Lows and 8. B. Davis. ' lov. Boud was the fiest min !ster to take clarge of the work in Omana. ‘Tho church had gone through the usual ©opochs of adversity and in 1570 the lot upon which the new church stands vas purchasoed, Rov. Copeland came some years later and bad remained & " successful laborer until ouly & fow years ago. Rov. Mann said he was nappy Lo state that the financial part of the buildin ject completed had all been nnmdr;l V':;'].a '!hll he should not be obliged to ask the audience for assistance fn that direstion, The build ing had cost something over $10,000 and the Unitarian association of Boston had loaned the trusteos #1,500. The Boston association had previously made a loan of #4,500 on the property 8o that the total amount now owine was 8,000 This had been loaned without 1aterest and was to be pald in installments of )200 per annum. Tho pastor said the members wero all well plensed with the new church. They had endeavored to eroct a structure chat would be homelike and inviting, and the architect had succeedod admirabiy. ' Seats would be rented, he said, at the nominal sum of &, and would be assigned by lot. This will bo done at the church this evening. The congregation thon sang a hymn and :hw J. C. Learned pronounced tho ~benedic- ion, Services in the Evening. In tho evening thero was an addross by Rev. T. B, Forbush upon “The Work of the Unitarian Church " Rev, Mary A. Safford upon “How We Do It:" Rev. Lloyd Skinner of Lincoln'upon “What Comes of 1t:" Prof. IL P. Lowis of Omabs upon “A Layman's Viow of It;” Mr. Thomas Kilpatrick upon “Unitariaus in Literature,” and Mr, W. 8. Curtis upon **Our Chucch’ as a School.” ‘The singing was led by Miss R. K.

He says he belioves his nephew has mot with foul play aud the valise has been stolen. 's Australian THE OMAHA DATL T0 CENTRALIZE CHARITIES, Mr. Thomas Kilpatr'ck Talks of a Plan to Bystematizs Giviog, SOME BENEFITS OF ORGANIZATION. Money Intended to Relieve Suffering Will No Longer Be Misapplied and Worthy Cases Will iteceive Due Assistanc With tho approach of winter the various charity socleties of the clty have commenced to plan for the work of the winter befor them. One of the most active workers for tho poor of the city is Mr. Thomas Kil- patrick of the Kilpatrick-Koch Dry Goods company, Mr. Kilpatrick's chief aim is to get the socicties formed in the good cause preperly organized that their work may be more efficient. In speaking on the subject of organized charitivs, Mr. Kilpatrick said : *About ten years ago in all the larger cities of the cast some of the promiucnt people in terested in charity work met in each city and organized what is known as organized charities. This meant that all the smaller institutions that were in many cases con- ducted in connection with tho churches be- came interested in this most praiseworthy central movement, and establishod head- quarters in the poorer and more dostitute parts of the city. This central oreanization was managed by a compotent head, with per- haps an assistaut, and while the mana tended to affairs at_headquarters, the ant went over the city carcfully investigating the condition of the applicants for assistance, In this way they soon had a eompl ord of the condition, wants und character of those who were applying for arity, soon discoveriug that while many were genuino and worthy, others were living, frequently in extravagance, on the charities rececived from peruaps o dozen or more of these original societies. After the new plan, of which I speal, was well organized, the mem- vers of tho different chirches and local charities bocame a visiting board or com- mitteo to invostigate further, and very often could render services to the more worthy and unfortunate in a manner that could not bo so well dono by the superintendent or his assistant, Benefit of Centralization. The benefit of all this organized offort was that charity bestowals were not duplicated, that~ the funds were used only for' the deserving and expended consequently in the most effcetive and bost manuer. When such an_institution as this is once organized tho business men and itablo peoplo gencrally would gladly con- tribute yearly, and then when they had calls upon tham for aid would send them direct to headquarters and feel that they were doing all concerned a good service, instead of doing as they do now. T'hat is, offen siving money or otter cLarity, when they suspect that they are being unposed upon, and for that same reason often refuse aid when they have res- son to beliove that tho person may bo ncedy und worthy. “We have already, no doubt, in this city enough local charity aud charitable peopic, and there is probably onough money ex- pended each year in u haphuzard way to more than pay for all tho wants of such an organization as I have men- tioned. That the funds aro not used to tho best advantage, and we are, no doubt, often imposed on, is palpable to all, for manv of us would rather be imposed upon than refuse a worthy and deserving apolicant. We should not forget that berein Omaha we offer a great inducement for population and at the same time our industries aro so limited that it is ofton difMcult for a man to gt employ- ment. Cobsequontly we have atall timos many people who become in s measure, per- chanco without any fault of their own, de- pendent upon the charity of otners. “Lam weliaware of tho fact that mere charity is @& tbing that must be handled with great care, otherwise tho rosuits will bs ' injurious ratoor than beneficial. It is for this reason, amone others, that I mention the advantages of orgauized charitics. It is a benefit and vlessing to those who give and also those who receive, whereas indi nate giving soon becomes a great evil—an evil tending to raud and improvident habits. It becomes us for our own benofit and credit, to take adyan- tage of what 13 already so well established and favorably known elsewhere, and it would s00n be understood by tramps that Omaba is no asylum for them. Then what monoy w contripute would bo dispersed through logi mate channels aud go toward tho support of the worthy poor. y How (o Get Started. ““This contral organization would in nowiso interefero with the charitable feelings and work of the community, for as I have said, the good women who attend to these matters now, would assist as local committecs, aid- ing by their money and advice this grand central work. “I sincecely trust that some of our old and rominent citizons will take an activo part in organizing some such central charity, and were it ouly for their own comfort and con- venience, if for no bigher or loftier reason, I am suro that such promi- nent clergymen as Dr. Duryea, Bishop New man, N. M. Mann and others, are familiar with this work, and I would like to see them take an active part in somo such move, though I wish to bo clearly understood that this matter should in no way be connectea with any religious body, I remember that at my old home in Cleveland, O., Rev. Rich- ard Gilmour, the Catholic bishop of the dio cese, wias most conspicuous in startiog what 18 now a wel! established orgaunization on the plan_herein outlined, “*Wo liave biad in our city a vory humblo but earnest work of the kind in what is known as the Tenth Street mission. It has been managed largely by the personal devotion ana efforts of Mrs. Jardiae, who i kuown to all our businoss communit, am inclined to think that this small charity whict has been among our vory poorest people might be made the foundation of a larger onterprise, such as I have attempted to describe, and 1 which I am deeply and forvently interested.” ———— Mra.

The most sanguiue, however, were scarcoly prepared for the brilhant trlumph achieved. At every stop the cars were surrounded by eager crowds mnxious toobtain a glimpse of the marveious evi- donces of Nebraska's titie to the nation's garden spot. The results were gratifying in overy respect. As an indication of the man- ner in which the idea was received by those fortunate oaough to visit the display, the fol- lowing extracts are selected from the many complimentary préss notices received on tho tour: Chicago Tribune, Octobor 10: Two pas- senger coaches with gothic windows of eorh rolled into the unlon depot over the Burlington road last uight. Red, wuite and yellow ears 50 covered the sides of the car that they had the appearance of corn palaces ou wheels. Tho car contamed every variety of products grown in the state of Nebraska. The products of each couuty were ar- rauged by themselves, Douglas county, n which Omaba Is situated, occupled & con- spicious place. James Walsh, one of the delegates representing the county and known us the “Potato King" of Nobraska, nointed to the display of vegotablos and declared that Dougias county was propared o foed tho national republican couvention at Omaha in 1802, Amoug the ocuriosities were an earof corn weighiog ono and three quarters pounds, eighteen pound boets ana specimens of sugar beets and hemp. This was from Dodge county. Stalks of hewp % BEE, oigntecn feot high wery hung up in tho car. It is predictod that Nebraska will some day dovelop inte the legdips sugar and hemp producing stato in tho country. The Mo- Kinloy bill is snid to huye assisted both these industries materialiy jn that state. The sizo und quality of all the products approach the marvelous, Chicago Horald, October 19: Agricultural products of a groat and growing stato aro shown in an exhibit on wheels now traveling through the country. A train load of prize products was in Chicago yesterday, the raska Stato Busine ation bLeing (o charge . ‘" 5 culturai product of the stateis in the exhibit. One monster squash from Merrick county would run a pie factory; it weighs 155 pounds and is elgbt feot in clreumforonce. Cass county shows some apples that rival those of Michi- gan. Then there is a1 oxbibit of sugar beots from Hall county, with pictures of the sugar mills. The principal part of the show, how ever, is in the Dougias county sorner. Omaha 15 the county seat of Douglas, and James Waish of tho Omana Board of Trade has two ears of prizo corn which he defiantly shakes at fllinois farmers. Oud ear weighs one and three-fourths pounds and tho oiher is_twely inches long. Mr. Waish offers 3100 to any Allinois man who will produce a duplicate of either and his money is in_ his insido pocket. Corn is sbown that runs 140 bushels to the acre. R. F.

'Phe truth is that there never has beer better or superior exhibit of tho products of earth than was presented those who availed tr seeiug Nebraska on wheels. It appears to bo God’s coming country. A squash that weighed 185, pounds, ‘watermelons in proportion, cars ot corn that weighed one pound and three-quariers, suzar beets four feet long, with the tais bitten off by little girls with “sweet teeth,” will go to satisfy the eastern wan what it is that tho energotic farmers and busiuess mon of Nobraska raise aud handlo commercially, * * * The woest to us will continue to dovelop and for ages to come will be the homes of huppy and prosper ous millions of what is caited humanity. Plymouth Itepublican, October 23: % * * t variety of grain exhibited was a proof of the wonderful resources of Nebraska. The display of vegetavles was equal and in mary respects superior to anything of the kind we have ever seen. The idea of a state of drouth, hot winds and cyclones producing such a vegetable crop made the crowds of visitors open their oyes in wonder. The fruit was also excellent, especially theapples It looked zood to see sound apoles of imaginable variety, Thesight of gran- suzar from sugar beets raised in Ne- braska was the real wonder. Itdemonstr two grand facts —that Nebraska was the sec ond stato in the union to proauce sugar from the sugar beet and that the Mc! was tho father of a great industry and o blessing to the farmer. e was a grand success. Nobraska is away up in the estimation of our peopte, both as to her won- decful resources aid 140 industry and iutelli gence of ber people, Come again and stay longer. iZarlville (1) is tho nosted ) Gazette, October 23: Satur- day afternocn about 410 the Nebraska train reached this city. The cars were soon crowded with peobls oxamining the truly fine display of the produels of that state. The fruit exhibit, especially of apple sed much astonishment, forno one would lcok for such a display except from sections noted for fruit growing. Tho fruit was not the product of any special scction of tho_state, but was from all parts of it. The graius vegetables showed that Nebraska is o sf fertile in soil aud with other conaitions so favoravie that the farmer must get a bounti. ful veturn for bis labor. Undoubtedly the display boing made by tho enterprising peo- pio who bave it in chiirge will induce many people to locate in thut state. Wellsvillo (O.)

During the brier stop here tne traln was visited by many of our citizeus, and many others rc- gretted the early departare that deprived them of the pleasure. Tho «lisplay is su prisingly varied and compiete, incluaing ry possible variety of fruit and vecetablo product indigenous to the climato. In th grains the exhibit is very fine, but this feat- uro is wholly surpassed by the apples and other fruits, which are as fine as those raised in any part of the coun.ry. One feature of tho display which attracted universal atten- tion was the exhibit of tho Nebraska sugac beots.

That 15 the only objection an Onio paper could have to the enterprise. As one of the gentlemen stated to tho reporter the object of the trip is not at all specalativ it 1s simply an advertisement of the great state, its resources and capabilities, for the purpose of encouraging immigration and establishing industries.

The results of the election ave more perplexing the more they are studie A8 that Governor Bolos and tho democratic party stood for the saloon under a $50) license, as st out in their platform, it would seom that of the people had spoken in favor of trying that plan. Assuming, also, that Wheeler stood for the prosent prohib y law as voiced by the republican plat- form, and itis found that outside of the hoavy demoeratic countios of Scott and Dubugue ho received a majority of the votes of the state, Itis also found that he had a pueality in sixty countins of state, while Go Boies only earvied thirty-nine. Glanein the legislature, and it is found that the re publica: have ajority in tho house of six, and have an equal number of members of " the senate with the democrats, would seem to indicate that I'is fact the majority of tho peoplo had not wone back on_vroibition, olse thes would hay od alozsiature pleazed to ticonse, HBut just how to decide what the election really "did mean, and just what is best to do about it s the grave probl which confronts the ublican part The question ably by vrohibi 10 insisti is boing discussed consider- editors and correspoudents. The onists, of course, advocate sticking law and standiog or falling thereby, 2 that it is better to die for the right than tosurrender to the saloon, and that sort of sentiment. The sati-prohibitionists see in the result'n splendid opportunity to ery, I told you s0,” and to advise the repeal ol prohibition and the enactment of high licenso richt away. These, of course, aro by the radicals on both siads, The conservative clement s calm, and advise the peop! » slow and wait. They thinic it will be better for the party to keep perfectly still until the democrats expose v plans. Thoy suy siuce the republican party ospoused prohibiion and have received the curses of democracy and mem- bers of their own party therefor, it is hardty zood sense to jump trom tho frying pan ir tho fir cls the party on the high cense rock, They behieve if any one should be respousiblo for high licenso at this time it should be the democrats who have oham- i it the past ten vears, They reaiize, . that tho great majority of the ropub- lican party in lowa are prohibitionists, and if that principle 15 abandoned it will mean great loss and tho probable formation of a formidable third party. Lookine at 1t from overy noint of viow it is goin Lo take some wise statesmanship to guido the party ship safely through the shoals of the legislaturg this winter. One of the most important oftifes to the rapnbiicans in this emergeney will be the speaizershin of the house, and it is necessary to gec tho very best man to fill the trving position. Natur- ally men who have had provious legislative experienice will be looked upon as the most available timter. But a gianco at the list shows that very fows republican members of the last houso have been: returned. Among thoso who huve success- fully wonthered the gals .are Chase of Hamilton county, Dolph of Hardin, Holliday of Louisa, Morrow of Union, Lane’ of_Polk, CGardner of Washington, Austin of Wright and Van Gilder of Warren, Wyckoff of Ap- panoose bas also hud logisiativa experience, though not iu the last house. A new man, however, is tho first to enter his name as a indidate for speaker--W. O. Mitchell of Adams, Lane of Polk was speaker pro tem during the thirty days deadlock of the lust house, and if a candidate would stand a good show for olection, having acquitted himself with ability and made many frionds. It is hovdly probablo that thero will be much political legislation accom:plished this winter, and it is extremoly doubtful if any redistricting wiil ve aone. With a demo cratic majority in the senate and a republi- can majority in the house, but little can bo done beyond the passuge of the approvriation bilis oxépt by the way of compromise. Of course the ropublicans will have their own way in all joint convention proccedings, ex- cept where two-thirds vote is required. “ho Keokul: Constitution-Democrat states that it has sent a series of questions out to the members of the noxt general assembly on the iiquor question. Eleven replies are thus cived from republican representatives. Six of them aro unquallfiedly for pronibition ; one for resubmission; one will abide by pro- bibition unless he can get released by his costituents; ono of the opinion that with tho state at large opposed to prohibition something may bedonetochangeit; one thinks £1,000 is high license and would favor that 1f it would suit his constituency, and onestates that matters have chunged very much and 15 at present undecided. Seven replies are ro- ceived from republican senators. Four are for straight prohivition; one is undecided; one against democratic local option and high licensn but would favor republican local op- tion und bigh license with the amount from 21,500 to $2,000: aud one considers license the bost form for reducing the evils resulting from the sale of liquor, and prohivition a de- lusion aud a snare.
