PO[IU D PRAYER BOOKS Eervices at £t, Panl's Polish Catholic Ohurch Conducted Under Guard, BUT THERE WAS NO SIGN OF VIOLENCE Review of the Troubles Which Have Divided the Church Into Hostlle Factions— Mouney of the Parishioners Not Accounted Kor. Father Stanislaus Kmen of Cleveland, 0., eonducted services at St. Paul's Catholic church at Sheeley station yesterday fore- | noon, ‘in_gpite of official determination to prevent it. The nature of the proceedings before Judge Scott Saturday, when Bishop Scannell was called in to answer for con- tempt of court, caused many to believe th would be trouble at the church yesterday morning, but there was none. The services were conducted under police protection, but to an ordinary observer the worshipers were Just as devout and the services were just as impressive as they would have been had there been no internal strife among th church members, It was not necessary to break down the doors of the sacred edifice, for a duplicate key was found and the doors opened without violence. Probably 100 mem bers gathered to worship, while nearly as many stood outside the fence and quietly watched the procecdings. The presence of two mounted policemen had a quieting effect upon two or three turbulent spirits who might otherwise have attempted to frighten away the worshipers. REVIEW OF THE TROUBLE. The troubles of St. Paul's Polish Catholic church are of about three years' standing. Three years ago Father Jakimowicz took charge of the parish. His flock embraced ome 400 members, all of the Polish nation ality. The church members are devout, hard working and liberal in their contributions tc the support of their religion. Some in- stances are given In which men with large families_contributed §5 per month out of a salary of §50 per month. Father Jakimowlcz was o hale fellow well met. Under his direction the present church buillding was erect The parishioners con tributed liberally to the building of the church; so liberally, in fact, that in the three years they gave something 1 $21,000. The building fs a one-story frame structure that could be built anywhere for $4,000, while the lots upon which the build ing stands required an additional expendi ture of $1,000. During all the three years the parishioners who have contributed the funds were kept in fignorance as to the disposition of the money. Under Catholic dispensation a priest is the solo financial agent of his parish and he s responsible alone to his bishcp. Th parishioners finally went to the bishop and stated their fears. They felt that they good reasons for belleving that their mo had not been judiciously expended. bisbop’s reply did not satisfy them. COVERED WITH MORTGAG At the beginning of the present year Father Jakimowicz gave notice that he would sever his connections with the parish on January 16. He did so, and after he had removed to Mount Carmeél, Pa., it was discovered that not only had all the §21000 been expended, but that a mortgage for $5,000 upon the church had been given to John Rush An investigation discl sed the fact that the mortgage had been given by Father Jakimo wicz and the two trustees, Thomas Trawlcki and Nicholas Cherck. The canonical law prohibits the giving of a mortgage without the consent of the bishop and also stipulates that the mortgage must be signed by the bishop and the® vicar general as well as by the priest and the trustees. The fact that the mortgage to John Rush had been given in a manner prohibited by the canonical law raised a doubt in the minds of the Sheeley parishioners as to its validity. The bishop finally took a band in the discussion and as his final ultimatum ordered the ¢ ngregation at Sheeley to a sume the indebtedness and guarantee t payment of the mortgage. The parishioners who had already con- tributed $21,000 for the er.ct'on of a $4000 church felt the Injustice of the bishop's man- date. They pointed out the fact that th were por; that many of them had been out of employment for more than a year, and that they could not pay off the mortgage for years. They also urged that the moncy they had already contributed had been squandered and that it was unfair to compel them to pay for their church twiec Thelr protests were un and they were locked out of their The average Sheeley church member of the Catholic persuasion will not be deprived of the consolation of religion if he it, and 0 after the bishop had closed their church door in their faces the members sent to Cleveland, O., for Father Kmen. Ac- cording to statements made to The Bee reporter at Shecley yesterday, Father Kmen had been excommunicated and is still under the ban of his superiors. It is for this reason that many remained away from services yesterday. A part of the congregation re mained loyal to the bishop, but the larger part_entered the church and listened to the service, HIS COUSIN'S COTTAGE. Across the street from the church stands a neat little brick cottage which had been built two years ago by Father Jakimowicz for his cousin, a pretty young Bohemlan girl named Olga Jakimowicz” Two years ago the fair Olga married Anton Czajor of Chicago, and the wedding Is yet refirred to as the most notable function in the history of Shee- ley town. Everybody was invited, and cham- paigne flowed like water. The police were present, and good order was maintained; but the cost of the wedding feast, $150, was taxed up to the parish. The cottage built for Olga was pald for, as some declare, out of the funds contributed for the erection of the church building. The parishoners pro- posed to Father Jakimowicz that if he would deed the cottage to the church society they would not prosecute him for the alleged misappropriation of the church funds. H agreed, and it was not until after the deed had been formally executed that the people of Sheeley discovered that the cottage, which had originally cost $1,800, was encumbered by a mortgage for $1.400. The congregation insists that the trustees and higher authorl- ties shall render an accounting, and this mat ter Is now pending in the courts. What do you take medicine for?

THE _OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1891, NUST GIVE T00 MUCH AWAY Dr. Murray Tells Why the Laboring Men is Not Better Cff. DENIED FAIR RETURN FOR HIS TOIL Other Conditions to His Disadvantage—Dr. Mackay on Methods of Charitable Work-—Christian Work in Colleges Described by Collego Men. A Labor dsy serm:n was preacheds by Rev. Dr. Murray at the Hanscom Park Methodist church last evening. He said in part When God sald to Adam “In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread till thou re unto the ground” a universal law was e clated which has never been repealed fs an eternal fitness <f things in the decree “He who will not work, neither shall he cat,” and aside from the afficted ones It should be enforced. The social millennium will dawn when its enforcement shall be insisted upon and scclety shall decree the proportion of eating according to the measure of laboring In God's justice there Is only this promise “Thou shalt eat the labor of thine hands.” In man's injustice there has been, since the birth of the race, an endeavor on the part of some to eat the labor of the hands of others. In the days when the typical laborer was “The Village Blacksmith,” as represented in Longfellow's poem, his ot was enviable. Not so in these days. As students of soclal phenomena, as lovers of our kind, as Christizns who believe a man to be worth more than all else, we must_ sadly admit this lamentable fact. In thesé hard times of strikes and lockouts and shutd:wns, of enforced fidleness and hungry famlies, Laber day Is, it seems, almost & grim joke I most firmly believe that to put the blame where it belongs in accounting for the present unfortunate condition of labor in this country we must admit that the trouble Is due piimarily to the fact that tio many eat the bread of idlcness to permit all our rmy of workers with equal justce to eat the ‘labor of their hands. While industri conditions have been completely revolutiof ized in these days, there has becn no corr sponding change in the laws governing relations of labor and capital and cf both to the state. The result is that the simple re- publican equality of the good old tmes is gone, and instead we find classes of scciety distinetly marked and widely separated, with such Inequality of conditions as to pre y laborers from justly eating the their hands. No man can really by his labor such an income as is p.s by our multo-millionaires. Such by foree compulsion, with their extravagance cf ex- venditure, ‘eat the bread of idlencss at the expense of the laboring classes. WEALTH UNEQUALLY SHARED. Seventy per cent of the wealth of this country is in the hands of 200,000 people. One mun reccives 70 per cent of the bread of labor, while 209 are left to quarrel over the remaining 30 per cent. A laborer earn- ing $1,000 a year would be compelled to work over a millennium in order to recelve for his toil the average annual income of one of the hundred richest Americans. Then, not the laborer or producer, but, to a large degree, the gamblers of Wall street d other speculative centers control the markets and regulate the value of the bread of labor. And these speculators have in a single year, through their manipulation <f the markets, cleared a score or more millions of dollars, ‘made, alas! through the sweat of brow and agony of soul of countless multi- tudes. Compared to the incomes of such money sharks, place the statement of a sew- ing woman in Boston, a type of ler class, Who gaid she was sometimes able, by working far into the night, to make 52 cents a day. The condition of the laboring man, too, Is today unenviable, because his right to work is often unjustly taken from him. In one of the large houses of our city recently a clerk was arbitrarily discharged, though the complaint of a customer aganist him was absolutely proved to be groundless. But in the mind of the employer the whim of the customer was worth more than honor- able and just dealing by his employ Again and ‘again during the recent strikes has the right of men who desired to work been denied them by the representatives of labor organizations, and property has been destroyed and human life threatened and en taken in mad efforts to intimidate men from working as they choose to do. DUTY OF THE CHURCH. The marked estrangement of the masses from the church is a cause of a manifest lagk of such prudence, temperance and self control as would make the laboring class an influential factor in the settlement of great problems affecting their Interests. About a third of our population is now of forelgn extraction, massed in our cities, with little sympathy with American ideas of law and order. The churches are too little interested in the reaching of the masses in our cities today and must do more carnest work in that diree- tion, for the settlement of the labor problem must begin in the regeneration of the charac- ters of the people. The temperance reform, too, as an economic and social need, aside from its moral bearings, will work vast bene- fit to the labor Interest. All our citizens must Interest themselves also in this supreme political and social problem of labor. We must legislate against the encroachments of corporate greed, make the coming bil- lionaire an impossibility, make it impossible for the gamblers of Wall street to fix the values of the bread of labor, effect co- operation between capital and fabor, deter- mine by the flat of a free democracy that gold and silver shall be cheaper, while man shall be held at his divine value. OMAHA'S CHARITAULE WORK, How It Should Be Conducted During the Coming Winter. The question of measures to be adopted to provide reliet for the destitute familics of Omaha during the coming winter was dis- cussed by Rey. T. J. Mackay at All Saints’ church yesterday morning. The scrmon was in the mature of a practical talk, based on the experience gathered by the spcaker dur- ing many -years of charitable work, both in Nebraska and the large cities uf the east. Dr. Mackay took for his text the very ap- propriate injunction of the apostle Paul to the early church: “If any man will not work, neither let him eat.” This, according to his observations, should be the principle upon which all charity should be based. Labor was the natural condition of mankind, and for those who would not work starvation was the only remedy. The preacher said that there was some- thing wrong when an army of tramps swarms over the country, subsisting like the lilies of the field, while thousands of hon- est men who were gnxious (o work must elther beg or starve. However this might be, the people were mow confronted by the problem of how to provide for the deserving poor during the coming winter, which prom- ised to be the hardest ever witnessed by the present generation. According to the records of County Agent Burf, over 500 familles were being helped by the county even now, and it might be expected that this number would be swelled to 8,000 or 4,000 during the cold weather. The giving of money or direct charity was condemned, except In cases of extreme ne cessity, or where the head of the family was crippled or sick. The soup kitchens and other charitable institutions which gave ab- solutely without any return in the way of labor were hurtful, in that, they fostered a spirit of dependence and robbed the needy ot their pride until the work of charity de- generated into a wild scramble after a liv- ipg by those mpo"grew (o accept it as a niattef of cours Dr, Mackay deéprecated thd fact that un- der the present laws the city had no right t¢ push public improvements other than by contract, If these laws could be amended much of the difficulty of the situation could be done away with. In order to be effective all charitable work should be accomplished under one central head. In this way mueh ill-advised. charity could be prevented and care could be taken that-every dollar was expended where it was deserved. The nu- merous strikes of the present year were referred to as complicating the problem, as meny of the corporations from which the Associated Charitiesthas recelved substantial ald in the past wowld very justly refuse to assist in the support of men who might have worked If they had wanted to. The speaker maintained that the labor organizations which had supported them while the strikes were in progres# would set a grand example If they continued tof assist them during the winter, now that the strike had failed and the men were left without anything to keep them from starving through the winter. He also favored the voting of $50,000 in bonds by the city and county at the coming election to aid in the work of rellef, as it was very doubtful if private generosity would suffice to meet the many demands that would be made upon it. v College Work, The meeting at the Young Men's Christian assoclati bullding at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon was devoted to a discussion of the work being done in the colleges of the country. Five colleges were represented and the reports were very gratilying, showing a growing interest in Young Men's Christian assoclation work in all college circles and among college students. It is coly a few years since, it was stated, that a Christian or a Young Men's Christian assoclati n man was leok:d upon in colleges generally as a “Mies Nancy” or an effeminate sort of chap and not a manly man, but of late (hings have changed and in some colleges the Young Men's Christian asscclation is stronger than any cther organization McCague of Princeton spoke first, showing the difference between coll:ge Young Men's Christian association work and gencral Young Men's Christian assoclacion work Fleld of Dartmouth came nest with a fine report, followed by Cogasnil of Trnity at Hartford, Conn., who spoke of wurk done by students among the sailo Denise of Willlame spoke at some lergth of the summer scho:l at Northfla'l, Muss for college students under the eharge cf 1 L.
