8 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY, JANUARY _ e AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Rev. R, I, Wheeler Desoribes What is the Highest Reach of Humanity, IT IS TO FULLY PUT ON JISUS CHRIST Revolution that Wonld Be Wrought in the Church of Today it it Should Secure More Men of the Kind Paul Was. “The Highest Reach of Humanity” was Rev. Robert L. Wheeler's topic at the Pres- byterian church yesterday morning, the text being, “I am crucified with Christ, never- theless T live.” To be crucified with Christ, sald the preacher, is to stand with him, and for him, in the cultivation of righteousness and the resistance of evil, without regard to the dic tation of the regulators of soclety or the lash of public opinion. The cross of Christ Is the sign of the world's resistance to the love of God; it is the emblem of this world's shame. That with wicked hands they killed the just and holy One, spurned Him in whose face shown all light of the knowledge of the glory of God. Mocked His call to a better righteous- ness, hated His purity, jealous of His regard for women, His love for children and sym- pathy for the burdensd common people, took Him up Mount Calvary and slew Him The sign of that tragedy is the cross, The highest reach of humanity is to put on Christ in our attitude toward truth and obedience to God, and resist even unto martyrdom all appeals from world flesh or devil to compromise or surrender. Self-living of whatsoever sort is the essence of sin, and selfism s the lowest plunge of the human soul toward total depravity and is the genesis of fdolatry. The man who is selt-suflicient and lives only for himself—the woman whose highest aim is to be petted and pampered by modern society without regard to the evil influence and cffects on other lives, are both satanic and re-echo the sinful pride of the story of Eden. Paul found the unselfish Christ lite when he lost his selfism and became possessed of a supreme and passionate love for men. It was to him one of loye's transformations. He looked out of love's eyes deep in human sew- erage and saw a lost one for whom Christ died. He rescued the outcast from soclety; he preacted a gospel of hope for the prodigal and found In him a brother blood-redeemed His own rich and proud church disowned him, public opinion cursed him, but his love for men and Christ was triumphant over all, “Nevertheless 1 live.” Tho modern church calls loudly for men of Paul's stamp, willing to be crucified for Christ, to stand against the Introduction of that falso idea that the church is to be a religious club for the socially fortunate and the Mammon-blessed ones, while the children of poverty and the neglécted ones find the church receding from the slums, to be In- trenched in the aristocratic suburbs, and the strect arab, the less fortunate and so- clally ostracised find no voice or hymn or call to God but the rattle of the drum of the Salvation army or the street prayer meeting. To be crucified with Christ means for us to stand n stubborn resistance to the sins of the day. Why is soclety shocked at the expose of gambling and gamblers, when this same society demands a knowledge of high flve and a deck of cards as a passport into its ranks? The parlors of the morally dis- -posed, even professed Christian ones, are turned into kindergartetns for recruits for gambling hells, “Crucified with Christ” would, as the motto of the great church of Christ, cause her followers to seek with passionate love all lost ones and to shun the very appearance of evil and by the sacrifice of love of Chrst to men and for men mammon would be de- throned, selfism crucificd and the Christ of Gallilee relgn triumphant.

Yesterday the feast of the holy mame of Jesus, patron saint of the Jesuits, was cele- Drated at St. Johns Collegiate church. The services consisted of the singing of solemn high mass and a sermon by Rev. John Pahls, the president of Creighton college, upon’ the power of Jesus' name. e The singing was exceptionally fine. Haydn's second mass was sung by the choir to an organ accompaniment by W. T, Taber. A quartet, comprising Mrs, A. F. Bethge, Mrs, Lang, Captain Kinzie and Frank Burkloy, rendered “Veni Creator,” by Millard. The ffertery was Luzzi's “Ave Maria,” and was sung by Homer Moore, a baritone who has come to this city from Piitsburg, where he #ang In Trinity cathedral, In his sermon Father Pahls discoursed on the great glory and power of the name of Jesus, not only In itself, but also when ap- plied (0 the church and its members, He stated that the name had not been given to tho Savior by chance, but was derived from Jehoval, which means the Savior, and was announced by angels who had come down from heaven ‘before the incarnation. In fact the namo had no beginning, and In briet means the incarnation, the unity of the human and divine natures. Father Pahls held that it cures the evils of the flesh, as well as those of the spirit, and deduced ex- amples from the scriptures and the lives cf the holy fathers and saints to support the statement. Ho asked if every one had not felt the relief the namo itselt gave in hours of temptation, sorrow, financtal embarrass- ment and plyiical afiction. In view o this Father Pahls sald that there were ceriain duties that every one owes to the name, and mentioned the two most important. One was the duty cf respect. It 18 the greatest of all names, the name of the grealest personage that has ever appeared on earth, the nsme of God, and the co ymend *Thou shalt not take the name of the Loid, thy God, in vain" should be strictly obeyed. The other pre-eminent duty is (hat of in- vocation to ihe name. As it is the cnly namo under heaven by which we can be saved, it should be kept continually in our hearts, and we should call upon it in every affiction. “‘Let the holy name of Jesus by everything." - .oy ok e 5 Grand Army Omcers fustallod, George Crook post No. 262 and Women's Rellef corps No. 88 recently installed officers as follo: Commander, William 8.

He clalms that all of his transactions with Hunter and the other members of the in- corporation in which they were jointly Interested were perfectly fegitimate. says that Hunter and others forced the matter Into the civil courts some time ago and were defeated, so they have adopted this manner of tiying to force him to cede to their terms.

Mr. Charles H. Howard, recently city passenger agent of the Burlington at Denver, has assumed the duties of agent of the Adams Express company in this city, vice Mr. R. B. Roeeves, who has Geen transferred to the agency of the Adams company at Springfield, O, Mr. Howard is one of the best known express men In the country, having been identified with the business since early youth, and has filled many positions of prominence and trust with the leading express com- pan He first started in with the Adams in New York City, rising to the position of assistant money clerk in a comparatively short time, and becoming proficient as a shorthand writer, resigned to accept the position of private secretary to the general superintendent of the Southern Express com- pany, with which he remained several years. He was then transferred to Cincinnati, where he filled a like position with the manager of the Adams Express company. Upon the or- ganization of the Baltimore & Ohlo Express company he was appointed superintendent, having general supervision of its business west of Parkersburg, and although con- eldered a very young man for the position, filled it with great credit to himself, and succeeded in building up a very remuncrative business in the face of strong opposition by the older companies, When the Louisville & Nashvllle Railroad company organized its own express company he resigned to take the position of assistant to the president of that company, remaining with it until the follow- Ing year, when he accepted an offer to re- enter the Adams Express company's serv- ice, In whose employ he. remained until the fall of 1856, the last four years of which time he represented it as general agent at Kansas City. He subsequently went to New York as superintendent of tariffs for the Erle Express company, but upon the col- lapse of that company returned to Kansas City _and was given a similar position with the Pacific Express, part of the time being located in Omaha. ' Since 1890 he has been In the service of the Burlington railroad. [ —— THE DIRECT SOUTHERN ROUTE Istand—Shortest Line and Fastest Time.

WILL SURPASS FORMER OCCASIONS Dances, Songs, Speeches and Drills that Wil Recall the Dear Old Land that Has Been Left and the Environe ments of the Great Poet, The celebration of Burns' birthday anni- versary at Washington hall on the evening of January 25, under the auspices of Clan Gordon No. 63, Order of Scottish Clans, promises to be an interesting and attractive event. Already the sale of tickets assures an even greater success than attended the celebration under the same auspices a year ago. Everything connected with the cele- bration is on a scale in keeping with the place that Burns holds, not only in the hearts of his countrymen, but in those of all who read the English language. An in- teresting feature of the evening will be the national dancing, exemplified by the chil- dren, in full Highland costume. The speakers of the evening will be Messrs. Frank E. Hartigan and John L. Kennedy. The following is the program: Gathering of the clans ........... “ Pipers J. C. Buchanan ‘and” G, 'W. Me- Dotigall, Addre; of welcome.....G. D.

Rudolph Hartz, grand treasurer of the Treu- bund, denies that there is any trouble in the order. Says he: “The Treubund has just as smooth sailing as ever, with the exception of a few sore- heads, that by some means get into all secret societies, and because they are mot allowed to exercise full power over all mat- ters they feel it their painful duty to try to_cause trouble. “I also wish to state that a full and com- plete statement was rendered at the last grand lodge meeting. The object of holding the next grand lodge meeting at Norfolk was well understood by all members at the Platts- mouth session. It would be just as expenslye for the members of the order to come from Norfolk and the other western lodges to Omaha a3 it would vice versa. The order is enjoying great prosperity, considering the present times, and would be more prosperous were it not for a few chronic kickers.” ar Social. Vesta chapter No. 6, Order of the Bastern Star, gave a very enjoyable entertainment at the Masonic hall last Wednesday evening called a “poverty,” or “hard time,” social. Memories of the olden time and life on the frontier life in the early days were resurrected, and all came attired in their former “‘Sunday best.” Many antique styles were represented. Mr. Charles Baxter was awarded a pair of large socks for having the most homely suit, while Mrs. D. 0. McEwan received a very unique bouquet holder as the ladies' prize, The admission fee was 13 cents, and a charge of 1 cent extra was made for re- freshments, consisting of coffee and dough- nuts, which were served at 10:30. Cards and dancing formed the special part of the even- ing's program. The committee that o suc- cessfully planned and carried into execution the enjoyable event was composed of Mrs. Mary Hay, Mr: Angeline ‘Whitmarsh, Miss Dollie A. M. Pray and Miss Emma Ander- son. The attendance was large, many being present from the South Omaha and Council Bluffs lodges, and out of town chapters being well represented. e Checking Up Accounts. The sovereign financial committee of the Woodmen of the World is in session at the present time, engaged in checking up the ac- counts of the soverelgn clerk. Chalrman C. C. Farmer of the sovereign managers s also in the city, on his semi-annual tour of in- spection. He s highly pleased with the progress that has been made, especially in this, the soverelgn jurisdiction. At the end of 1893 the sovereign camp of the soverelgn Jurisdiction contained 14,057 members, and at the end of last year the number of mem- bers was 20,287. The Pacific jurisdiction shows an fncrease of 4,602 members, the membership now being 9,14 Patriotic Duughters Entertain, The Patriotic Daughters, whose reputation for enjoyable socials and entertainments has long been established, gave a very enjoyable masquerade ball at the Grand Army of the Republic hall Wednesday evening. The at- tendance was good, and those present kept time to the charming music, as rendered by the Gate City orchestra, until twenty numbers had been played. The committee, composed of Mrs. Nellle Fisher, Mrs. Hines and Mrs, Distelhorst, was praised for the creditable manaer in which the affair was conducted, Socrot Socioty Notes.

A crowd of sports went out to Elkhorn | Saturday night to pull off a dog fight, and they witnessed a lively contest between “‘Omaha Jack,” a Seventeenth street buil terrler, and ““Bose,” an East Omaha canine reputed to be able to whip his welght in wild cats or badgers. For some time there had been a dispute between the owners of these “purps” as to which had the best stay ing qualitfes and a couple of weeks ago the men posted $100 aplece to fight their ani- mals at an unknown place within fifty miles of Omaha, Bach dog welghed within forty- five pounds and was in fine condition. The ring was pitched in a well-lighted barn and the dogs were placed in their cor- ners. A Third ward ealoonkeeper was se- lected as referee and announced that it was to be a regulation scratch and turn scrap, the dog failing to cross the scratch in turn to lose the stakes. As soon as the word was given the East Omaha dog went after the big white fellow from Omaha and for ten minutes the spectators were treated to some of the Tiveliost wrestling and breaking of holds that has been witnessed hereabouts, A break was made in eighteen minutes and the Bast Omaha “dorg” had upheld his reputation as a scrapper. But in the next round he met with a more stubborn resistance and the Omaha pup seemed to awaken to the fact that he had a fight on his hands and he punished his adversary severely. The East Omaha canine seemed to be fosing his wind and for the succeeding three rounds he fought on -the defensive, but the other dog rushed him so savagely that he had mo chance to recover and w time was called for the sixth scratch he re- fused to cross over and meet his antagonist and was counted out. Considerable money changed hands and the crowd returned at a late hour. It is likely that the victor will receive a challenge from the owner of a Sixteenth street dog in the near future. Neither dog was badly hurt, but the East Omaha dog lacked wind enough to make a winning fight. ol 1 5 DONE BY A JANUARY SUN. Peculiar Origin of a Fire In a Wholesale Liquor flouse. A conflagration was narrowly avoided in Mannix’s wholesale liquor house on Farnam street, between Fourteenth and Thirteenth streets, yesterday afternoon about 2 o'clock. Officer Clarke's attention was called to a blaze in the east show window in the paper and cotton cloth with which the shelves used for exhibiting liquors are covered. An entrance was efected and a singular fact discovered, and that was that this inflam- mable stuft had been ignited by the sun's rays shining through the plate glass window and focusing on a glass jar. The flames were speedily extinguished and no damage done. That the heat from the sun could be concentrated with sufficient intensity to ignite this mass of paper and cloth on the 20th day of January in this latitude was con- sidered as something remarkable, e In Oiden Tim People overlooked ‘the jmportance of perma- nently beneficial ‘effects and were satisfied with transient action; but now that it is gen- erally known that Syrup of Fige will perma- nently cure habityal constipation, well in- formed people ‘willl not buy other laxatives, which act for'a time, but finally injure the system. Death of au Omahw Teacher. Miss Helen M. Nave, one of the teachers in the city schools, died yesterday morn- ing in Topeka, Kan. Miss Nave had taught in the Omaha schools since Septem- ber, 1888 For a number of years she taught in the Lake school, but more re- cently in the Saratoga. She was one of Omaha's most faithful and devoted teach- ers, beloved by her pupils and highly re- spected by all’ who knew her. She broke in health “last Aptil, but remained at her post until the close of the year. She was selected for this year and had been' on leave of absence since the beginning of the fall term, ~— e The Burlington Route Ch: nges Time.

Gov't Report Baking AMUSEMENTS. “The Derby Winner,” which was made known here earlier in the season, again made a dash for public favor at the Empire yesterday, larger audiences, matinee and night, testing the drawing qualities of this latest of the racing dramas, There was some doubt about the stage of the Empire being large enough to give Mr. Spink's drama proper scenfe investiture, but with four horses In the stalls and two in the dash for the Derby stakes all fear as to the smallness of the stage was dispelled and the play scemed better for being drawn together on account of the stage capacity. “The Derby Winner” is deservedly popu- lar with the great mass of theater goers, exploiting as 1t does quite cleverly a grow Ing phase of life in which the people of America are becoming more interested year after year, There are but few changes in the company since lagt seen In Omaha, and the changes made are decldedly to the advantage of the play. Porter J. White plays the villain with good appreciation of the requirements, while the hero and owner of the Missourl Girl, who wins the derby stakes, Is still played by Frank Dayton, Miss Olga Verne makes a sweet, gentle heroine, and plays with much Intelligence. ~ While ‘the dramatic features are well provided for, the comedy element is by no means an inconsequential part of the entertainmenty diminutive Arthur Dunn, but a superlative comedian, leading the fun makers. ~Then comes Max Miller, one of the very best German comedians on_ the stage, and his wife, Jessle Hatcher. Billy Bldridge is a wonderfully clever colored man, and, with his wife, carfies considerable of the play on his shoulders. The specialties are splendld and the play made a deserving hit yesterday, A very good house witnessed a production of “Yon Yonson' at Boyd's theater last night and appeared to extract a good deal of en- Joyment from the play. The piece, after the style of other similar farces, is used simply as a vehicle to represent a dialect, in this case the Swedish, and is mainly monopolized by the star, Gus Heege. As is usually the case in presentations of the kind, Mr, Heege's dialect is at times forced, but on the whole Is very good. The most enjoyable portion of the entertainment, however, was the singing of the Lumbermen's quartet, comprising Sid- ney Craven, Clinton Maynard, C. B, Pease and 'W. J. Corns. Their harmony is very &ood, and their songs, although constructed on old lines, are clever and sometimes quite humorous. They were compelled to respond to several encores. The rest of the compan: were mot above criticism. Jule Kusel, however, as John T. Holloway, the villain of the play, presented his character with much merit, The advance sale of scats for the Salvini engagement at the Boyd, commencing to- night, has been such as to demonstrate that this city Is well able to hold its own as a generous patron of the higher drama. Local theater-goers have selected Salvini as their especial favorite, and his coming is always looked upon as one of the chief events of the season. Although his fame has been en- hanced from the fact that he Is the only actor of-his day who has been able to thor- oughly arouse in the audiences of the period an enthusiastic regard for the sentiments of old-time romance, he is by no means confined (o these limits. He is not an actor of one part, but of many parts. As a comedian or tragedian he seems to be equally at home; unlike most of the greater actors, he has ng pronounced mannerisms, but like the great artists of France, he is able to lose all self- consciousness and $ink his identity in the role le portrays. Tomorrow night his ad- mirers will have an excellent opportunity to judge of Salvini’s more comic talent, for he will then present for the first time here the new romantic comedy entitled the “Sty- dent of Salamanca,” which is said to be one of - the most laughable productions of the dramatic year. Salvini’s engagement will open tonight at the Boyd with “Don Caesar de Bazan,” and will close Wednesday night With “The Three Guardsmen.” The company Wil ‘arrive at 9:35 this morning from the west.
