8 — e THE OMATIA DAILY BERE:FRIDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1804. EUROPE OF BISHOP NEWMAN Its Two Great Oities, Three Great Nations and Three Great Social Movements, EFFECT OF NEW WORLD INFLUENCES Reflections on the Life, Thought and Des- tiny of Nations Across the Water— Lecture at the ¥First Methodist Chureh Last Evening. The First Methodist church was filled up #tairs and down stairs at the lecture given last night by Bishop John P. Newman. The audience was composed largely of promi- fnent people of the city, and throughout the Jecture they pald the speaker rapt attention. Bishop Newman was fatroduced to the audi- ence by Rev. Frank Crane, and when he arose to speak he was greeted with a round of ap- plause. Bishop Newman opened his lecture by say- ing that he had often been asked wha of the year he preferred for crossing ocean. He has crossed the water in all four of the geasons, and he has found the month of December as pleasant as the month of May He has observed, too, that all tourists, whether old or young, on business or pleasure, are equally anxlous to see land again. Ac- cording to the bishop’s analysis, there are three classes of travelers, the superficial, who only go to display their wealth and return to their native land with fewer ideas than they had when they went away; the aesthetic, who live in fmagination and whose delight is to visit poetical and historical scenes and to tread in halls where statesmen have aroused their fellow countrymen to great deeds of patriotism; the philosophical, who do not de- spise the aesthetic side of travel, but who, from their logical turn of mind, trace out great epochs of history. They seek for the philosophy of mighty movements which mark the epochs of history and show that the Cre- ator is not only a logician, but also a geome- trician. When these return to their native land they not only have enriched themselves, but they enrich their fellow countrymen. to whether the pleasure of foreign travel lies in the anticipation, the realization or the re- flection that follows, the speaker thought was still an open question, but he obtained the greatest pleasure in the reflections that came to him in the study. In his Imagination he was then once more traveling in fore’gn lands, FACES OF ROYALTY. The bishop stated that for more than thirty years he had been interested in Europe. Four times he had be:n there, in 1860 as a student, in 1874, In 1881, and again for seven months in 1894, During that time he had pene- trated into all parts of the continent, and had seen many soverelgns, Queen Victorla, a vigorous woman, and then burdened with years; the prince regent, Napoleon, the Sphynx; Leopold, the cunning, crafty, swarth dipiomat; the great Willlam; Alexander II, Who had signed the ukase to manumit the serfs and who was assassinated; his suc- cessor, the late Alexander I1I; the lad who 18 now czar of all the Russias; Francis Joseph 11, “stately as a Corinthian column and majestic as a prince;” two sultans of Turkey, and on the banks of the Tiber the holy father, Pius IX. “The great cities are to me the great at- traction. They are worlds in miniature to me.” Al travelers will seek a center of some kind, a pivotal spot about which all thought shall cluster. Such centers are great cities to the bishop. To him London is a minlature world of 5,000,000 people, the in- fluence of which extends wherever the sun shines, on all continents where trade abounds. He who would study English history would not fall to find In this_marvelous center of thought scenes majestic and historles im- mortal. There one can“stand In the garden in which Milton wrote his great ‘‘Paradise Lost,” ‘In the forum where Pitt spoke; there it I8 where Newton sdlved the probiem of the skies and Macaulay wrote his immortal history. Thero are five places In London that Bishop Newman especially reveres. One is the tower of London, where “princes were mur- dered and martyrs slain, where the regalia oi the English kingdom is guarded, the ma- jestic pile where memories are written in blood.” Another is the wonderful British museum, ‘‘where the ends of the world meet The lecturer did not think that is was pos- sible to go to any other spot in the world and to find archacology, ethnolggy or philos- ophy so represented. The third spot fs Westminster Abbey, “where British royalty is crowned, and where British royalty is burled; where sleep the honored dead, poets, orators, statesmen; whero one mingles with the mighty spirits whose writings have glven direction to the thoughts and destinles of mankind." Another place is the great St. Paul's, where the first copy of the English bible was read, where the great reformers were clited to trial, and within whose walls the greatest preachers of England have been heard. IN BRITISH PARLIAMENT. The fifth place is the Parliament, the cen- ter of political power. It has been Bishop Newman's good fortune to see there and hear Palmerston, “the great statesman, but foxy in argument;” Disraeli, "'toe Englisn Apollo Belyidere, with Byronic brow and curls, crafty, whose English was like wmusic;" Glad- stone, “‘towering above the other two, with a dome-like head, who spoke like a Roman senator.” Parliament Is now changed. On his last visit the bishop was in attend- ance at a session at which the Irish question was discussed. There he saw Redmond, Balfour, Incisive and smiling, sarcastic; Chamberlain; majestic, plain, but forcible; Labouchere, the radical of the radicals; Har- court, ponderous in intellect and form. the House of Lords he saw two men who he thinks will become the leaders of Eng- land—Salisbury, a conservative, English from head to foot, thoroughly read, ponderous as a thinker; Rosebery, on the opposite side of the house, a Scotchman, a traveler, an author, a sportsman, a splendid looking man, in the prime of life. The English would call him clever, the Yankees would call him smart. He has been trained in statecraft by Glad- stone, as Gladstone was trained by Peel “By degrees his mighty plans are being worked out. Do not be surprised if by the next cablegram you hear of the rupture of the Turkish empire and the severance of Armenia, On all the shores of the Persian gulf, and up to the magnificent city of Bag- dad, there is Rosebery's gunboat and the English resident.” Greater still, in his imagination, rupture of the great empirc of China. This 18 his dream. Rosebery will take the heart of China. He will not touch the northern part, he will leave that to Russia and the Japs. But he will take all the south, He has reached Hong Koog already. Then England will do for China what she has done for India. The boy that is now in school will Beo as mighty a revolution as that which occurred in India. Great, indeed, is old England. ITS THREE GREAT CITIES. It he were asked what the three great clties of the old world are, Bishop Newman would answer, Jerusalem, Rome and Lon- don. He does not forget Athens, where the academy of Plato was, the prison of Socrates and the baema from which Pericles spoke; nor Constantinople, ~where Constantine relgned In all his glory; nor Vienna, the home of the house of Hapsburg; nor Berlin, which gave Luther; nor St. Petersburg, home of the czar and czarina. But in Bishop Newman's opinion Jerusalem is the background of exact history, of a philos- ophy that ‘“‘went forth as a scepter to sway everywhere.” As a connecting link between the past and the present is the city of the seven Lills, old Rome and the new. During the past few years excavations have been made that have laid 0ld Rome open at one's feet, and it Is possible to stand on spots that are famous in history. New Rome has boulevards, parks, houses of merchandise palaces, and is now free In the sense that individuality ds jrecognized. The speaker visited the Itallan Parliament and there he saw Promler Crispl, “the old Garibaldian who had the courage to fight with the red- shirted anurchist,” and today is prime min- ister and one of the most astute statesmen of Burope. He was sitting “with the repose of a god on his brow,” with the war budget i bis lap. He showed that the poverty of was not the result of an extravagant and navy, but of the bullding of great season is_the the | € In | the | = raflway systems through the country, which will enrich it In time to come. ITS THREE GREAT NATIONS. It Bishop Newman were asked what the three greatest nations of the future would be he would answer Switzerland, England and Germany. Switzerland, the little republic of glaciers, of alpine heights, of sunny lakes, why should that become mighty? No nation on the face of the globe, In the opinion of the speaker, not even excepting the United States, has done more to help humantiy. From it has come the postal system, the in- ternational telegraph system, the interna- tional railroad association. Today it is striv- ing to establish a uniform system of coinage for all nations. “It Is a nation capable of mighty thought, and fis destined for im- mortality.” Germany is the home of original thinkers. All the greatest thinkers in philos- ophy, metaphysics and theology in all history have been found there, They are ponderous in thought and expression, and tireless in in- vestigation. England's Influence will be for | personal liberty. The speaker was Impressed with three great upward movements of soclety in Bu- rope. First, the relgn of the people. The day of absolutism fs past, has given way to the individuality of the British subject. Al though respect is yet pald to the monarch, doference 18 paid to the people. There is no liberty of speech in any country, America excepted, as in England. “For say please, the reign of the people ha jovernments no longer regard the people in the mass, but as individuals, But England 1s more sagacious than wo are, Their suffrage 18 more restricted than ours, and is based on property qualifications and education. “‘Uni- versal suffrage is a humbug." Another great fact is the epread of common school educa- tion. The old world has long boasted of its universities, but until within a few years the common mind was enslaved. Now the com- mon mind is becoming emancipated. In Italy there are 50,000 schools open every day. In Germany education Is as free as the sun. In Scandinavia, out of 800,000 children of school age, only 16,000 do not attend school. “These are Indices that the humanity is tending toward a better future.” Another movement is the emancipation .of the common con- science, The bishop sald that in all the countries that he had visited this is taking place. In Hungary the civil marriage bill was passed, although the clergy opposed it be- cause it would decresae their revenue. It was passed after Francls Joseph had favored it. The ‘bishon ascribed these great movements in Europe to the influence of America. ‘Amer- ica has been the potent influence of tran:form- ing the governments of Europe and letting in the light of liberty. Wherever 1 have gone I have seen one American face. Beside the picture of the “Iron Duke,” of Victoria, of William, of Garibaldi, of Francis oseph, I have seen the face of him who sleeps tonight on the Potomac, who is immortal. Wherever men sigh for liberty there they will remember the name and revere the memory of George Washington.” Commbdn Sense Should be used in attempting to cure that very disagreeable disease, catarrh. As catarrh originates in impurities in the blood, local applications can do no permanent good. The common sense method of treatment is to purify the blood, and for this purpose there is no preparation superior to Hood's Sarsaparilla. Hood's Pills cure constipation by restoring peristaltic action to the alimentary canal, Have You Been There?

Detectives Savage and Dunn yesterday afternoon arrested Dan Baker and John Wyman, alias Burns, for burglarizing the house of B. E. Beteneber, 1628 North Nine- teenth street. The house was entered last Sa affernoon while no one was at 1"¥he burglars must have been on the h for the opportunity, as the inmates were gone only half an hour. Clothing to the value of $110 was stolen. Almost al of it has been found in pawnshops. The police think that the: A good case against th ouple of pawn- brokers are ready that they were the men who pawned the clothes, Both Baker and Burns are old timers. The former is especially well known to the ce of this city. Some time ago he was sed of breaking into “Fatty” Blodell's place on the island, slugging Blodell and his wife and plundering the house. He was taken to Council Bluffs for trial, but was discharged. Last winter he broke into a house in this city, and the police were sure that they would send him to the peniten- tlary for the job. He was acquitted of that charge and was only convicted of petit larceny and got a short sentence in jail. HARVE URSIONS SOUTIL. Via the Wabash R. R.

Most cf the public schools of Omaha will have visitors today. Shortly before 8 o'clock last evening the teachers of the Beatrice and Tecumseh schools, numbering between fifty and sixty, arrived in the city on a special train, the two parties meeting at Lincoln and taking the special train at that place. They were not expected until this mecrne therefore Secretary Gillan and a committee of the Board of Education were ot to mest them. This meet- ing will be at Superintendent Marble's office this morning at 8 o'clock, when the program for the day will be arranged. The visitors will be divided into small parties, perhaps not exceeding half a dozen, and will then visit a large number of the schools of the city. The trip is simply f:r the purpose of witnessing the operation of methods In the Omaha schoc The Beatrice party comprises C. superintendent of schools; A. H. Brainard, principal of the High school; C. F. Rogers, instructcr in science in_ the High school; C Jensen, instructor in German in the High school; M. S. Calvin, supervisor of music; Miss Pew, supervisor of drawing; Miss Leger, 0. T. Reedy, R. D. Elliott, C. D. Schell, J. C. Donaldson, J. B.

In the Tecumseh party are T. H. Bradbury, superintendent; C. R. Borland, principal, and Mrs. Stokes, Misses Hill, Clark, Gregg, Cumpston, Renshaw, Wright, Mittie Hill, Thatcher, Mason, teachers. | All of these have rooms at’ th> Millard save the Misses Leger and Miss Barton, who are being entertained by friends in the city, and Mr. Jensen, who is with a friend at the Pax- ton. The visitors will return this evening. About half of them made up a theater party to the Boyd last evening. Mr. Pearse has been superintendent at Beatrice six years and is recognized as one of the most progressive men in his profession in the state. He was a prominent candidate before the last republican state convention for state superintendentof public instruction. Mr. Pearse says that an attempt is being made, in which the schools under -his charge are leading, to redeem the name Beat- rice from bad pronunciation. He says that to be properly pronounced the accent must be on the first syllable and not the second. He says that about one-third of the people of that city are now pronouncing in the right way and the reform is making head- way. Mr. Brainard is a brother of Mrs, D. H. Goodrich, secretary of the Omaba Street Rail- way company. G. Pearse, A new set of comedians in a new play, in fact everything new but the title, is the announcement of Cosgrove & Grant's comedians for “The Dazzler,” which opens at Boyd's Sunday matinee and continues for four nights and a special popular price matinee Wednesday afterncon. It is not a case of brightening up the old play, but an entirely new ‘“‘Dazzler” is offered this year. Special attention has been paid to the dressing and scenic effects of- the piece, and a more elaborate production is pron ised than ever before. Among the special features is the Cooking school dinner given by a class of young ladise who have just graduated from the modern cooking schoo the weekly volunteer entertainment whicl takes place on board all the great trans- at'antic lines, and which in this case serves to introduce most of the specialties. The company includes Flora West, Charles ayne, Mason and Ralstron, the De Witt sisters, Will West and twelve pretty girls, The sale of seats for the engagement of “The Dazzler” will open at 9 o'clock to- morrow morning. “I can easily account for my leaning to- ward boy characters, whether in rags or livery,” sald Katle Emmett to a reporter yesterday. “As a girl I lived in Chicago, and when the Academy of Music was play- ing the strong stock company that made it famous in the theatrical world I was en- trusted with the comedy roles. I had an opportunity there to observe the newsboy and the street waif in his native habitat, and the strain of real manliness and chiv- alry that I even now find beneath their ragged coats and grimy skins was easily \dealized by my girlish fancy. It was ai- ways my delight to watch the ‘newsies.’ and then go home and astonish my friends by giving imitations of their ways. The fancy did not leave me, and the parts that I played with the most pleasure during my long engagement there were those in which 1 portrayed the boys' characters, and for that reason chiefly I clung so long to ‘The Waifs of New York' against the protesta- tions of my managers, I finally did abon- don the piece, but it was with a pang of real regret, for although a plece like ‘Kil- larney,’ for instance, gives me fully as good scope, still T know with the ‘Waifs' off the stage the brave little fellows about our city streets are likely to be longer misunder- stood. Maybe it's a concelt of mine (and we women of the stage have plenty of them), but I think I know the young vaga- bonds more intimately than do most of thos who represent them on the stage, and for that reason think I can carry their part better than many to whom I am wiiling to concede superior natural talent.’” Miss Em. mett appears at the Empire theater for four nights, commenciog Sunday matinee, De- cember 9, in her new play, “Killarney."” Perhaps the most noteworthy of the at- tractions announced for the Boyd this sea- son is Jacob Litt's plcturesque drama of Blue Grass life, “In Old Kentucky.” This play enjoyed a run of seven months at tha big Academy of Music in New York last winter. A brass band composed entirely of little colored boys is perhaps the most strik- ing of the several innovations seen, but the genuine horse race, between a half dozer Kentucky thoroughbreds, is in itself the very zenith of realism and the most thrilling climax ever placed upon a stage. “In Old Kentucky” comes to the Boyd on the last three nights of next week.

When the sun went down yesterday the Department of the Platte had only two Indian soldiers on the muster rolls. These are Privates J. Reed and Looking Eagle. In accordance with orders from the head- quarters af the army, the members of com- pany I, Twenty-first infantry, stationed at Fort Omaha, were discharged from the serv- ice at noon yesterday. The thirty-six Indians discharged are: Hugh M. Jones, Joseph T. Cook, EIi Brock- way, Henry Windshoot, Thomas Goodface, Joseph Caje, Charles Martin, Paul Good Cloud, Francis Willard, Charging, White Wings, Alexander Brunot, Arthur Black Horse, Came from the Scout, Herman Crooked Foot, Charles Crow Dog, Horace Day Boy, Joseph Dog Nation, John Ducks, Isaac Hepikuja, Paul M. Jones, Willlam Knee, Samuel Little Hawk, Frank White Meadow Lark, Edward Pretty Head, Charles Red Horse, Charles Ree, Amos Richardson, John Selwyn, Miles Standish, Louis Shunk, John Slowly, Danlel Webster, Brigham Young. Eleven of the Indians attached to this com- pany are now on furlough and are at present at the Rosebud Indian agency. Upon the ex- piration of their furlough they also will be discharged. They are: Charles H. Jones, Albjon Hitika, Edgar Lee, Iron Lightning, Edward Yellow Bird, Philip Ree, Francis Ar- row, Stephen Cloud Blk, Frank Felix, Samuel Quinn, William Highrock. As before stated, two of the redsking, Reed and Looking Eagle refuse to leave the colors, and. they will be attached to a white company and be allowed to serve out their term of eniistment. This company was one of the best of the Indian companies in the army. Lieutenant Seary went to the reservation himself and picked his men, and in the three years they have been under him he has taught them many things. Some of these Indians now write a splendid hand and can add a column of figures as quickly as a bank teller, but the restraint of army life wears on them, and they want to go back to the reservation.
