THE OMAHA DAILY BERE: :]MONDAY, oc'rbnnn 8, 1894. VISITORS IN THE PULPITS Bermons Yesterday by Ministers Attending the North Nebraska Oonference, BISHOP ANDREWS' FLEA FOR EARNESTNESS Chancellor Crook Talks About the Dis- couragements of Life—Dr, Leonard on Family, Church and State— At the People’s Church, Most, it not all, of the Methodist pulpits In the city ,and some of those of other de- nominations, were occupled yesterday by min- Isters who are attending the North Nebraska conference. The Seward Street Methodist church never before held such a multitude of people. Every pew was packed to its utmost capacity avery alsle was filled with chairs or standing listeners, and even the steps leading down Into the basement were crowded. And the multitude overflowed from the church and extended to the steps that lead to the front entrance. The occasion that drew out this congrega- tion was a sermon by Bishop Andrews, who has been presiding over the North Ne- braska conference, which has been in session at the Seward Street church since last Thursday morning. It was after 11 o'clock ere the people ceased arriving ,and when quiet at last relgned the choir sang an_anthem, after which there was prayer. Bishop Andrews read the scripture lesson. Then the entire congregation joined In singing '‘How Firm a Foundation.” Bishop Andrews took for the central thought of his sermon the story of the blasted fig tree. The day that Christ attempted to pluck the frait from the tree, which ap- peared to be bearing, and found it to be barren, he cursed it. The next day His disciples wandered back over the road and found the leaves of the tree withered and the tree dying. GRACE HAS AN END. There are some who hold that God in His goodness will eventually save all mankind The trouble with this doctrine is that there {8 no such God. We get our knowledge of God from the bible and from nature. Those who point to the scripture which says *'God as a proof of their belief that He will eventually save all mankind, fail tc point us to the scripture which says “Our God s a consuming fire.”” Many people look upon the olive groves and beautiful vine- yards that grace the slopes of Vesuvius and seem to forget the buried Pompe| and Her culaneum at the base. There is but one way 1o have a strong Christian faith, and that is to have a strong and deep-rooted conviction A great many people repeat the creed and the catechism without a stumble and yet have no faith whatever. What the Christian world needs today is a practical recognition of God. The bishop's sermon was an earnest plea for a more earnest work in the church, for a more practical Christianity, for a more earnest effort for the upbuilding of the Mas. ter's kingdom. It was listened to with the deepest attention, and it produced a marked feflect upon the aud:ence. At the conclusion of the sermon the ordi natlon of deacons was observed with duc solemnity. The class of nine was made up of young men who have been working in the ministry for the past two years, and who will again go out from the confer- ence with renewed energy and zeal, LIFE'S JUNIPER TREES. Chancellor Crook of the Nebraska Wes leyan university at Lincoln, occupied the pulpit at Trinity Methodist Episcapal church yesterday morning. He delivered a sermon on the life and trials of the prophet Elijah, and compared the life of the prophet with the lives of Christians of the present day. He told of the tribulations of the people be- fore Elijah was forced to flee from thelr wrath, and of his flight into the wilderness where he sought shclter under a- juniper tree and prayed that death might come to his relief. An angel brought him food and sustenance, after which he ascended the mount and was with God for forty days and nights, “‘We find Elijah in a sad plight under the Juniper tree,” ‘said Chanc:llor Crook. ‘‘He in the desert 150 miles southeast of Jerusalem, and the funiper trecs in that locality are about equal (0 the small shrub- bery which grows on our own sandhills, He was alorie, without a living thing to attract “ his attention, and only two days previously he had to flee for his life from the king's couriers. He was filled with the same feel- Ings as the people of today would be if placed in a like position. With the robe of a sheepskin for a covering he lay under the Juniper tree and was filled with such anguish of spirit that he prayed for God to come and take his life. It Is the only prayer that God' did not answer as riquested, and he sent an angel with food to strengthen weary prophet for the long journey into the mountalns which He had willed. . “A prominent and brilliant writer, and a B0od churchman once asked me if [ had ever contemplated self-destruction m my lite, I replied no, and then he told me that I did :mt know the real meaning of genuine suff.r- ng. 18 AN UNWELCOME SHADE. “It is too often that we go to our homes after a hard day's struggle with the cares ¢ the world, and ‘with hopeless dejection. We are then under our Juniper tree of experi- ence, but with abiding faith we seek consola- tion. The way under the Juniper tree is ‘man's way, but the way from under is God's God gave Elijah sleep and rest, and it Is sometimes better to slecp than to pray. The story of the widow's contribution and its returna thousand fold, after which the life of her only son was saved, was told, and “the chancellor thought that this was a good example for the church people to follow in their support of the churches and coll:ges during the present hard times. But he said it was human nature for us to lose our courage when we spent our last shilling and poverly was staring us in the face, as it did the poor widow. He said that God got Elijah from under the Juniper tree by feed- ing him and preparing hir up into the mountains. But Elifah’s spirit was sorely wounded and he did not gain courage until he had had a personal inter view with God. Then he became filled with new hopes and consolation “This is what we should do, cannot £0 Into the mount:ins to visit persorally wit: God, but we can go into our closets and th receive His consolation. We must all go to God. As we tell the story of our grievances to consoling friends they become smaller, and we take new courage, just as Blijah did after going up into the mountain. God consoles With @ still small voice and we are led to take up life's struggles with new hopes and greater courage, and look upward and onward to that better life and reward beyond.” In the evening Rev. Dr. Pillsbury of Ful- lerton occupled the pulpit at this church, and it was announced that on next Sunday Rev. Dr. Saunderson, the new pastor, would deliver his inaugural sermon THREE DIVINE INSTITUTIONS. The pulpit of the Hanscom Park Methodist Bpiscopal church was occupled yesterday morning by Rev. A. B. Leonard, the mis- slonary secretary, The music was furnished by a choir of thirty volces and was a feature Lof the service, In the preliminary service Jthe cholr sang the well known anthem, \ [UHoly, Holy, Holy," after which the invoca- tion: glven by higago. The choir rendered ce (n the Lord Jehovah," after which ponsive reading was led by the pastor. . Dr. Leonurd preached from the text, “The church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth’' The three and only three divinely sppointed Institutions, sald Dr. Leonard, are the family, the church and the state. Other institutions of a soclal, political and economic nature exist, but none of them have fhe divine sanction. The three first named staud as bLaving been divinely appolnted and ordained for the advancement and upbullding of the. world. The family paturdlly stands first. In that first human We the anthem, o pain.oreated by God at the beginning of the world God established the firét family, and | there existed In that first family both the church and the state. In that first family Adain was the husband and father, prigst and king. The development of both chure d state was a natural the development of the family. The urel had its inception in the kittle family for the journey | Rev. G. F. Calkins of the sequence gatherings around the family altar. As families multiplied they naturally combined together In their worsiip of the creator. Then came a regularly established form of worship and the church was born. 8o, too, developed the state. The rapidly increasing number of familles soon resulted In the formation of tribal relations, and as these tribes grew In strength came the first chiet- tain, then the patriarch, and finally the king. Thus the family, church and the state are the product of a single mind. No civilized government or nation on earth exists today where the trinity of family, of church and of state is not recognized as the base of the soclal fabric. 1t we visit those lands where the family s debased we find a debased gov- ernment and a debased church. If the church 1s dwarfed we find an imperfect family. It the state s corrupt we are certain to find a_corrupt church and a corrupt family. God created the family, the church and the state, and they must exist, each dependent upon the other, Dr. Leonard devoted a large part of his sermon to a discussion of the danger of the church sinking to the level of a mere ecclesiastic machine, and claimed for the Methodist church that its whole power for Rood rests solely in its adherence to the worship of the church of Christ with the spiritual life as the guarding principle. POWER FROM ON HIGH. Rev. William Worley of Columb: preached at the People’s church forenoon. The visiting clergyman was in- troduced by the pastor, Rev. C. W. Savidge. As an Introduction Mr. Worley said that he remembered preaching in the same room about eleven years ago. The preacher took for his text: “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come unto you and ye shall be witnesses unto Me, both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samarid and unto the uttermost parts of the earth.” Mr. Worley especially directed his remarks to the sentence in the verse which says, *'Ye shall receive power.” He said that eve Christian has been confronted with this fa very early in his Christian life as he comes to meet the realities of this life, and Chris- tians must do their duty though the heavens fail “It means something,” said the preacher, “to be a follower of Jesus Christ. God is so di- recting and shaping men's lives that they shall have something to do for Him, and after their labors here are ended they shall enter upon the enjoyment of the life ever- lasting. When the great trumphet sounds, a Christian worker will .not be asked what church he belonged to, but whether he has faithfully carried out the teachings of that greatest of all teachers, Jesus Christ. If he has done that success will come to him. He that fails is to blame, for hath not the Lord said, ‘Ye shall have power? That is what He told His disciples during their troubles. There is power in association, where a few are banded together for good work. The Holy' Ghost will surely be present and fur- nish the power and inspiration. f we find,” said the preacher, “that we have had victory up to this hour, let a peal of praise ascend from this house of wor- ship to heaven today. I believe in the spirit directing and putting the religion of the true God into a man's heart in three minutes. and if there is any one here who is skeptical, I hope he will be visited by the spirit before he leaves this building. Christ is the great teacher and we should all fol- low in His footsteps. You all need power from above; 1 hopo you will pray for it Have courage and rely on God. Christ told his disciples to have faith and théy should receive power. It requires power from the Holy Ghost for the disciples to stand up and proclalm their love and fidelify to Jesus Christ. We have to fight to win a prize God is going to lay heavy burdens upon us and we will need the power of the Holy Ghost to safely pass through tribulations.” Neb., terday City Misslon S ool.

No Truth in the Ramor that Al Dungan ‘Was Murdered. Chief Brennan put in several hours yes- terday looking up evidence in the case of the death of Al Dungan, who was run over and instautly killed by a Union Pacific freight engine shortly after midnight in Albright. Barly in the morning there was a rumor that Dungan had been murdered and his body “placed on the tracks. No evidence could be found to substantiate this or even cause a suspicion of its truth. Dungan had been with fricinds only an hour before, and on leaving them It is thought he started to the house of L. Sweer, where he had been making his home for a week. The suppo- sition is that he sat down on the track and wenl (o sleep. Engineer Hollenback reversed his engine as soon as he saw him, but the traln was going fast and could not be stopped in_time to avoid the fatality. Dungan was 23 years of age, Proposal from Pastor Savidge. Rev, Charles W.

German club circles are now busy ar- ranging detalls for indoor entertainments. The echoes of the many successful outdoor pleasures had hardly died away before thoughts for enjoyments during the winter months began to come. The local Treubund lodges were the first to set the pace two weeks ago, and last evening the Omaha turnverein followed with a dramatic production at theTurn hall. These amateur theatricals are to continue during the entire season, with intermissions of about two weeks. Extraordinary efforts at producing excellent plays have been made by the efficlent management, consisting of Messrs. Willlam Allstadt, Philip Andres and Theodore Becker, In order to create renewed interest in the turnverein the society has begun publishing a club organ entitled “‘Gut Heil.” The Oc- tober number was issued a few days ago. Another fmportant step was taken last week when the society, at its regular meeting, suc- ceeded In securing the services of Prof. Henry Kummerow in place of Emil Watzen- born, retired, as instructor of the turn- verein. Mr. Kummerow's election to this position is a matter of congratulation among the members, who have long wished for such a change. The new instructor, besides being thoroughly efficient in courses of physical training, which were acquired with years of teaching in vereins and the Omaha public schools, 13 of gentlemanly demeanor, an essential quality in a man who is charged with the duty of Instructing in physical culture not only adults, but children of more tender years, as well as ladies. The present choice of the turnverein finds, there- fore, no dissenters in the ranks, and it is confidentiy expected that new stimulus will be furnished by such a timely selection. Hereafter boys ranging in age from 6 to 12 years will receive training on Tuesday afternoon of every week, while those from 12 to 16 years are accommodated on Tues- days and Fridays. Girls and misses are to exercise on Wednesdays and Saturday§, and ladies evenings. The actives will drill on Tuesday and Friday evenings and the bears every Wednesday evening On October § the regular monthly meeting of the soclety is to be held. In connection with the different courses In physical training a German school Is to be opencd by the 15th of the month The recently finished club rooms on the first floor were opened with eclat Saturd night.

Fred Schnake, the well known and foreible German editorial writer, has recelved a letter from Carroll D.

Mr. Schnake proposes to preveent strikes by an application on the part of complainants to the United States district judge of the section where the trouble exists.

Then, when he was breathless, he turned to his companion and asked: “‘Where's your farm?"’ “‘We d it coming out here,” was the reply. “It's about two miles nearer town." i Amerlcan Tralns the Fastest.

Among the very fast special trains we find the following pretty authentio records of performanceg in the United States, which, %0 far as | know, have not been equaled in England since a run made on the Great Wostern In 1848 of fifty-three mlles at sixty-elght miles ap hour, and that was not up to the best of those given here. Septem- ber, 1891, on the New York Central, New York to Bast Buffalo, 436 miles, at fifty-nine and tyree-fifths miles an hour, Including three stops; 1892, same rallroad, twenty-ope and one-third miles, at the rate of seventy- two and geven-tenths miles an hour, ho stops; Pennsylvania railroad, 1891, City to Washington, miles, fifty three-tenths miles an hour, two stops; New York Central; 1893, eighty and two-fifths miles at sixty-eight and one-half miles an hour, no stops.
