CRANE UPBRAIDS CITIZENS GENERALLY ald Enter Polities s the Drink Strickl Declares the Church &b ~Dsan Gardner 1 Habit Among Women Local Suppression of Vice. n The mass meeting at the First Presb terlan church yesterday afternoon in obsery- ance of National Temperence day was only a partial in point of numbers, but the meager listened number earnest and very interesting addreszcs on the subject of th The pastor, Rev. J. M. Patterson, presided, and after the opening hymn Rev. T. C. Cramblett of the First Presbyterian church read a passage of scrip- ture, which followed by by Rev. John Williamson The first speaker was Rev. Frank Crane who discussed nperance in Omaha,” He sald that he was especlally qualified to per form the task assigned him. He had facts to hamper him, but could give reign to his imagination. Ho did not much about temperance in Omaha, as he had een little of it. Continuing, he said You will never have temperance In Omaha until you want it. You don’t want it now, you want money. You don't want temper: ance. You don't want good government You don't want decent society. You simply want a way to get rich and remain respecta- ble while you are dolng it The speaker considered four things neces sary to success in temperance work. They were motives, method, men and money First a motive or a desire for temperance in the city was necessary. He had attended a banquet at the Commercial club on the previous evening, and while there he had rd a number of enthusiastic speeches on Omaha's future growth and prosperity, but nothing had been sald In regard to its morality. There was a body of men who were willing to sacrifice everthing to pro mote the commercial prosperity of Omala Could there be found a body of business men in any of the churches who were ready to sacrifice anything to promote the moral welfare of the city? When this was pos sible there would be a suffl motive to accomplish much for temp Ordinary fecent city government would wipe out threc-fourths of the saloons in the city Three-fourths of them were violating the law every day, but nothing was done to vrevent it. Women should get together and mise their volces unceasingly against the ‘damnable collusion with crime that wa foing on in this city. CHURCH SHOULD ENTER POLITICS. In considering the methods that should be employed Mr. Crane sald: “The church should get into politics. What does your church ount to in local politics, what does mine? Dusiness men are afraid to come out and take a stand in this matter, because they are afraid they will lose busi ness. ‘The church is weighted down by these semi-Judases, who will do nothing except to keep out of the road. You temperance people do not cut any figure here in Omaha. You are insignificant. You are not able to muster more than fifty or 100 people to attend this mass meeting here this afternoon. The papers will not notice you tomorrow, but if there I8 a varlety theater running in full blast down town they will give it a column.” Dr. Hellings spoke on “Women's Work for Temperance.”” He believed that the women took a hand in temperance work instinet- ively. A woman's intuition told her what was right and she went to work, while the men were standing around thinking about it. There were thousands of women in this city and in the country at largo who down deep in their hearts are asking for some way In which to cope successfully with this evil, Some day, perhaps, a reply would come from heaven, as many another deliverance had come. Ne one would have believed twclve months ahead that human slavery would be wiped out, but God had brought it about in his own good time, and he might yet come to the assistance ‘of his people who were fighting against this gigantic evil of in- temperance, Some people were accustomed to assert that women should be more retired and not come out and take a part in this warfare, It was not the business man or the pro- fessional man who suffered the most from this evil. It was the patient wife, the loving mother and the affectionate sister who reaped the greatest harvest of sorrow, and they had the right to stand up and protect their homes from the blasting influence of the liquor traffic. DRINKING AMONG WOME. “The Drink Habit Among Women" was the subject of Dean Gardner's address. He sald that this was a phase of the subject that was startling. It was hard to believe that there was a drink habit among women, but such was the case. According (o statis tics, women drank nearly as much as men, and in social life they were often the leaders in dissipation. Could the secrct pages of tho social life in Omaha during the past twelve months be read they would unfold a tale that would make honest men and women hide their faces from shame. He was per- sonally acquainted with cases in which ‘women had drank so much at a soclal party that they had to be taken home, and many others drank privately and had to bo watched all the time at their hom ince the mo s of the future generation rested to a large extent in the hands of the women the present state of affairs was a shamo that called for decisive action. How man; fair girls had been brought to ruin beeaus on one occasion they had allowed their sense of modesty to become clouded by indulgence in intoxicants. Parents should make every effort to make their daughters temperate girls and the would become temperate women afterward, The speaker touched earnestly on the question of heredity as related to the lquor habit and on the duty of wamen to refuse to take a mulant that might {mplant an appetite for intoxicants in their cbiliren, LACK OF" METHOD, Rev. Dr. Duryea had no subject in par- ticular, but talked earnestly on general tem- perance top He agreed with a previous speaker that temperance work in Omaha had lacked method. There was a scarcity of capable and single-minded leaders. In tllustration of this point he referred to the attempt to pass the prohibitory amendment in Nebraska. At about the mid » of August in that year thel was a general expectation that the amendment would pass and the saloon Kkecpers were preparing to go out of business. Then the leaders of the amend- ment forces entered into a compact with another party which represented far differen in! ests, This caused many who had P termined to vote for the amendment to hesl tate and by the 1st of September all hope of carrying the amendment had disappeared It the leaders of the movement had been wise they would have compromised on a local option basls, which was possible at the time, and thus would have taken a stop forward instead of suffering a signal defeat, The speaker compared the method of working against lotemperance to that of General Grant In besleging Richmond. The © mander had drawn hi cordons tighter and tight a nd every avenue of a praach to the city until the enemy was f * suffocated before he had ventu on a final attack., 8o the fi thing for the temper- ance workers to do was to tighten around the liquor trafic all the cords which the law had already thrown abont it. With proper methods a majority could be secured for the enforcement of the law as it stood. This accomplished would be a step in the right dircction and wouid open the way fc more decisive action WORK OF W. C. T. U. The last speaker was Dr. Fre who represented the Wome Temperance union. She expressed her faction at being able to picture the bright Ido of the story, of which the most dis- uraging features had already been por trayed The women's organization had achleved great results. It now numbered 0,000 workers, thoroughly organized and with thelr work perfectly systematized Their national president was Frances B, Willard, one of the most talented and suc. sessful workers In the field, und from her fown to the most insignificant private they w~ere thoroughly in unison. Every state, con at audience to day a short was prayer fre 10w rly a Lankton, lstian satl Kresslonal district, county and local district had its organization working under th direction of leaders like a great army, wherd the orders of the commander-in-chief were followed all along the line. Dr. Lankton briefly reviewed the various branches into which the work of the organization was divided. They went into the jails, alms- houses, penitentiaries and hospitals, and no one but God could tell how many lives had been led Into purer channels through their efforts. The problem of sclentific temper- ance had received considerable attention, and they had Induced the legislatures of thirty four states and territories to pass laws make- ing the study of scientifio temperance a part of the currieulum of the public sehools. They had covered a wide fleld in the work of social purity, missions, juvenile work and among the railroad men. They had accom- plished much, and knew no such words as discouragement or defeat. STRICKLER 0 s the Lack of Proper Sentiment in Omaha—His Saggestions, Strickler was Introduced to an audi- “he Young Men's Christian assocla- building yesterday afternoon as ember of the Board of Fire and Polic Commissfoners and a Sunday school teacher. Mr. Strickler then proceeded to place him selt on , in a temperance and moral way, as follows The mayor of city cannot enforce ipality unless a general backs him up. 1 regret liquor interests of Omaha organization act as churcl to have an attack of letha ling_reforms for the moral good of citizens. Church lines should be wiped out and unity should be met with unity. A mayor or public official should not be condemned for not enforcing the law when the people do not demand such action. “The liquor question is bocoming a ous one. Only $5,500,000 yearly is spent for missions, while $900,000000 is spent for alcoholie beverages. The saloon element Is becoming a dominant power in politics, while the church people scem to stop on the threshold of their duty. A man who vocates reform fs made the object of political attack from liquor men and their sympathizers. The pernicious influence of the saloon has poisoned the public morals and crept into dangerous political power. I know their methods. They are known to all of you. Churchmen seem to be in different’ to duty. I came from a town where the Sunday blue laws were enforced The first Sunday T was in Omaha I saw men laying street car tracks on Fifteenth street, but I was shocked still further not long ago by sceing loon at the corner of Fourteenth and Capitol nue open on the Subbath day. Men were inside. I did ot wait to them drink, but turned my face from the disgraceful evidence of de- pravity. What the people of Omaha want is purity in politics, Partisanship is a great curse. We nced reforms, not only in temperance. Public officials ‘have squan- dercd public finances. This Is a sample of the degrading influence of the saloon in politics. “‘Brewerles pay the licenses of many sa- loons, which are simply their agencies to sell beer and whisky, with which to lure the souls of men. The good people of Omaha should rise in their might and crush out this traffic. 1t scems as though Christianity was losing ground and the saloon element Look at the magnitude of liquor on a comparative basis of Christian influence, The amount spent for liquor in this country would more than pay the na- tional debt. fany men think that temperance is a mere sentimentalism and turn its agitation over to women. This is radicaily wrong. A general interest of sexes should be main- tained. Opposition to liquor should be in- culcated in the minds of children at Sunday school and they should be taught to shun liquor from childhood. ot always reach an adult whose habits are formed. “Young men should bewsre of the fate which befell a young man i this «'tv a few weeks ago, who was sentenced to the peni- tentiary for his crime. He can trace his downfall to his first drink of whisky. At one time he was a irusted bank employe. Now he is in a felon's cell. kmplcyers in large establishments Lave mien who haudle their cash und rvelllance. They know thelr habits. This is right. It is for their own protection. There {5 but one inevitable sequel to drinking—a drunkard’s grave, or greater crimes which make them felons. There will yet be a crusade against tobacco, ell as liquor. Gambling s another cu Everybody knows what I have re- cently done in closing the gambling houses of Omaha, but only one preacher has taken me by the hand and congratulated m. “Thera is only one liquor cure and that is the spirit of Jesus Christ. The church is the greatest of temperance sanitariums, but people don't seem to realize it. It takes about twenty soldiers of the cross to cap- ture one soldier of sin.'” Perfect health Is seldom found, for impure blood is so general. Hood's Sarsaparilla really does purify the blood and restores health.

THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY, MARCH 19, 1894, ST l;;\TRl[I( WAS A BAPTIST This is the Conclusion Rev. Thomas Ander- son Has Arrived At, SAYS HE WAS ALSO A SCOTCH-IRISHMAN Declares Ho Was a Noble Man Whose Char- acter Should Be Emulated—Mr. Patter- Tells How P May Be appy Though Married. 'St. Patrick” was the subject chosen last night by Rev. Thomas Anderson, the pastor of Calvary Baptist church, Mr. Anderson opened his address with the statement that as he expected to be wrongly reported he had committed his remarks to writing. He sald that he was and expected that all his auditors vare that the church of Rome claimed Patrick as one of its* shining lights, but, in the recon ed words of Josh Billing Rome knows a great many things which are not s The speaker then went on to explain that ho had learned two interesting facts in con- nection with the history of St. Patrick, th first being that he was not a Roman Catho- lic, and the second that he was not an Iri man. From what evidence he had been able to collect he was of the opinfon that th patron saint of the Emerald Isle was bor in Scotland and was a Baptist Following up his subject he gave an infer- esting sketch of the carcer of Patrick in Ireland, paying an eloquent tribute to his memory and attributing to him the establish- ment of 300 churches and the conversion of 12,000 souls to faith in Christ. While claiming that many false statements had been made in reference to the record of the saint, the speaker conceded that he was one of the grandest characters in the history of Christianity and exhorted his hearers to learn a lesson from a consideration of his life and works. awa! were HAPPY, THOUGH MARRIED, Pastor Patterson Discusses Are Essential to Conjugal At the First Presbyterian evening Rev. J. M third discov in the establishment ditions that ellcity. church last Patterson delivered his the series pertaining to of a home. The subject of the discussion last evening w How to be Happy, Though Marricd.” The text was: “And he sald, what have thoy seen in thine houso?’ He sald in part: A husband said to his angry wife, “Look fll_ Carlo and Kitty asleep on the rug. 1 wish ved half so agreeably with thelr wives, top,” said the lady; ‘“tie them to- gether and see how they will agree.” And 0 in this new relation there are man: conditions that arise to challenge happpi- ness. And yet the legitimate fruit of mar- rage is happin id we do well to make the wedding day one of feasting and glad- ness, The misery of marrlage sometimes arises from mismating. 1 incline to the theory of Plato. He taught that men and women were hemlispheres of an original sphere; that ill- assorted marriages were the result of the wrong lemispheres getting together; that if the two halves met the man became com- plete, and the consequence was complete happiness. I believe the number of unhappy marriages s comparatively few, and that their number Is vastly overrated, that those who are happy in marriage are as many in proportion as those who are healthy are to tho sick. Many of the unhappy marriages are owing to bad dispositions, - There are people who have no capacity for happines: Some are constitutionally " unhappy, and the most perfect matrimonial relations would not make such people happy. There are women in Omaha who would not be happy if they had the angel Gabriel for a husband; and then there are men who would insist that marriage was a failure even if they had a wife made to order, “A perfect woman, nobly planned,” would not be able to make somo men happy in their homes. Pandora, the all-gifted, would not satisfy them. The fact fs, the degree of domestic happiness is determined by ourselves than by our life companion, Good housekeeping is another condition of domestic happiness. Good dinners g0 a long ways toward making and keeping peace. The tongue is also a factor in the presery- ing of the peace and happiness of the do- mestic relation. There is a time when stience is golden. When you cannot speak a pleasant word silence Is golden. Angry tallc and small talk_are infinitely worse than glum silence. You remember the old rule: “Never both be angry at once.’ And then there should be mutual forbear- ance. The golden rule of married life is “Bear and forbear.” The secret of happi- ness here as elsewhere, yes more than else- where, i3 self-denal. There must be a mutual confidence to make domestic happiness complete. Lives that have been separate and distant should now be a unit. The wife must interest herself in the affairs of the husband and the husband in the affairs of the wife, else they will grow gradually farther and farther apart. Love is another essential to happi- ness. There cannot be a home without love any more than there can be a heaven with- out holines Religion is also an essen- tial. It is the peculiar beauty and joy of the hom The grace of Christ has made many a cottage the very gate of heaven.

The patrol W residence, on was sent to Kopald's BEighteenth and Vinton streets, and were not misrepresented, A woman ami; a man calling her names and in the act of striking another blow at her was the state of things. She was en- deavoring to defend herself, but he was bent on doing the job rightly while he was at it and he did not fail, When the polic arrive she did not want them to take her husband, who always treated her with kindness and was so good in providing for her. He was arrested not- withstanding his protests that his wife struck him first and was going to kill him with a butcher knife because he did not buy her an Raste dress. She wa taken along, too, and together they made night hideous with their yells and crics as they were on the road to the station. Kopald was locked up and also, as complaining witness, placed in the woman's cell, and Mrs. Kopald She was no sooner was the door locked ®han she set up the most terriffic whoops thas were ever heard about the city Jail e sald her ribs were broken, her stomaah torn and her b Tt was at first sought she was se Injured and that pessibly a rib might have been broken.

It is conceded by all sides that this election will be as hotly contested as any that has ever taken place in the city. The principal fight will be made on the heads of the two tickets. Several of the candidates have held office in South Omaha in the past, but there © names on each ticket that are new to most every person.

A shoemaker near Eighteenth and Vinton streets, having his shop and residence in the same room, has on several cccasions adver- tised for a matronly dy to care for his household and to eook for an elderly bachelor with means. Many of these advertisements were replied to. Not a few of the applicants were young and advenfurous women looking for a husband. A knock at the side entrance always brought the shoemaker to the door, with a smile that spread over his classic features in a way that was most inviting. The young applicant of course always asked it the shoemaker lived here and if he wus “I bien him,” he would reply, with a gracious genuflection. The business that cailed the young lady there was scon made known and negotiations at once entered into. The price was first agreed upon, and then the duties of a house- keeper for a man of such prominence were specified. “You will mine house s not <0 very large and the work vil not be much.” This was as far as negotiations usually pro- gressed, when the young lady would inquire to what sort of room she was to have. The shoemaker would then draw a little red curtain and show his private boudoir. “Well, where do you sleep?’ was usually the next question, *‘Oh, I sleep right there, too, don you see?” This always brought the affair to a close for the young lady, but not aiways for the shoemaker. A young gentleman of 17 chanced to hear of dne of these scances and at once a devil- ish plot commenced to hatch within his cranium to play a joke on the old man. He told his young fricnds, and a plan was formed. He was to dress in female attire and apply to the shoemaker for a position as housckeeper, and was to agree to all the requirements that might be prescribed. He was taken through the usual routine, and finally. he asked where he was to sleep. The curtain was drawn and with a smile ho showed the young man his slecping apartments, Night rolled aroun and as tlie young man was about to retire the shoe- maker prepared to share the same bed. “The young man objected, but it was no uze. The shoemaker insisted that it should be that way, and an hour after retiring trouble arose. The shoemaker had by that time the best of proof that his housckeeper was a young man, and his disappointment threw iiim into a terrible rage, but the young man was ready for him. At a given signal a dozen of his companions on the outside who were Interested in the developments broke open the door. Th took the shoe- maker out and after giving him a sound drubbing rode him on a rail for an hour. He had them all arrested, but they were discharged, and the judge could hardly con- tain himself.
