THE OMAHA DAILY BERR MONDAY, JULY 29 It is in the Trials that Are Encountered in Obscure Places, TRIUMPHS NOT UNNOTICED BY GOD Are Often the Preparntion of the Falthful for Positions Where Righteous Achievement s an ¥ sxample for Multitudes. At Castellar Street Presbyterian church Rev. Dr. J. M. Wilson preached from the text, “Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear.” Sald he: The eleventh chapter of Hebrews contains a record of the great heroes of, faith. Paul holds before the people a list of great and renowned men to encourage them to run with patience the race set before them. It is not strange that he mentions Noah, who by faith saved himself and his family. He speaks of Abraham and Moses, who chose rather to suffer afiction with the people of God than enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season, and of Gideon, who through God galned victory over the Midianites, God does not overlook things done by His people in an obscure way. He drew attention to what was accomplished by faith in obscure places. Read the wonderful works of Christ In feeding the 5,000 and stilling the tempest on the Galilean sea. In the wilderness He was hidden away from men. Amid the agon of Gethsemana He was only imme- diately surrounded by three disciples. In silent solitude great men fight the fight of faith in obscure pla A WHERE CHARACTER IS TESTED. These victories in obscure places are the greatest tests of character. David, a shep- herd amid the flelds of Bethlehem, goes forth to battle. In his work as a shepherd nobody_saw him. He was a sentinel at the post of duty. Go forth to fight in obséure places. It 18 a real test of character. All thege victorl in obscure places. are preparatory to bringing out what is in us. With sling and stones David went against Gollah of Gath. 1In tending his father's flocks he was prepared for higher work awaiting him. He went forth in the strength of God and overcame. He believed God was to be depended upon. He laid hold of God by falth. Here he ranked along with Abra- ham, Moses and other heroes of faith. He took former victories with the lion and bear as ground of another victory. There is strength in moral character. Children pat- tern after father and mother, Good parents beget good children as a rule. These victories in obscure places are ground of divine promotion. Joseph was faithful in the dungeon, in Potiphar's house—in all the work given him in minor positions. He was brought to a place of trial next to Pharaoh, king of Egypt. To Daj ve the spirit of understanding and he was placed next to Darius, who was elevated to the throne after Belshazzar had been slain. UNDER GOD'S EYE ONLY. Lay hold upon the advantages by which we rise and triumph in the small places of life. Young men go into a city away from former companions and friends. They are tempted to test things for themselves. They are invited to sin. Will they stand the test when no eyes are upon them but those of God? In positions of trust be faithful. What is right is the rule when no eyes are upon us. Young women, yield not from a high sense of honor, purity, truth and goodness to a sin‘ul current of fashion, sin and idle- ness. It Is a special advantage to meditate upon and investigate things. Find out what is right. Find out about men. God sad to Moses: “Put thy shoes oft thy feet, for the place where thou standest is holy ground.” Come down and deliver Isracl. Bring them out of hondage Ino the liberty of the chil dren of God. Be etrong in the Lord and the power of His might. Trust in the Lord and do right. Do and tru:t. On the coast of Africa a ship struck rock, February 27, 1 On board were soldiers and 162 women and children. The boats were turned over to > women and children. the ship went down a parting ery was heard, “Faithful, believing, doing.’ Do right if it cost you vour life. Trust in the Lord, and He will bring about the right results. SR WILL NOT BUY WARRANTS, Local Sinking Fu Profit by the New Law. Among the laws that came into being at the Instance of the last legislature was hous roll No. 68, which authorizes the treasurer of any county, township, city council or school board to invest the sinking fund In registere warrants lssued by county, town, city or school board authorities. The object of the measure is to save a part of the interest of 7°per cent which fs now drawn by registerel warrants. As this rate is considerably in ex cess of the rate that is obtained on the sinking fund, the advantage of applying the funds to this purpose is evident. The new law will go into effect August 1 but for the present at least it will be of no avail in Douglas county. Neither Douglas county, the city of Omaha, nor the school board of this city is now the proprietor of a sinking fund which is available for taking up warrants. The county has no regular sinking funi. There is a fund which is des ignated as a bond sinking fund, but the lev: 15 only sufficient to raise enough to pay the semi-annual interest on the twenty-year bonds. No sinking fund has yet been cre ated to pay the principal of these bonds. The Board of Education is in the same condition. The twenty-vear bonds which are now outstanding agaiust the school district amount to $200,000, but as none of them will be due untl! 1908 no sinking fund will be created until 1893, The city is the proud possessor of a sinking fund, but its present condition fs such that it is aot available for the purposes of the new 1aw, The sinking fund of the city is nearly $100,000 overdrawn, according to the figures of City Treasurer Dumont. e Open the Safety ‘When there is too big a he you will be in danger.

The Race Question and the lature of New York recently passed a law making it a punishable offense to diseriminate against any person on account of his color at any hotel, restaurant, theater or othar public place of entertainment. Upon this many edi- tors and speakers have given vent to the old threshed-out talk that no law can change publie sentiment, that it 1s useless to legls- late upon social matters, and so on. DBut these remarks are not at all in point, There 1s a distinction between matters of right and sentiment. As long as this country is true to ite traditions of freedom it remains the in- allenable right of every human belug, of whatever race or color, to enjoy the privileges of all public carriers and hostelrizs and the like. Because some people object to the ne- gro as a fellow traveler is no reason why the latter should be mads to rile in a “jim- crow" coach. Suppose (le Alsican stould ob- ject to the white man? Han't one side as good right to protest as the other? Simply because for a century or so we have pui a wrong upon an_unfortunate r ralges no presumption as to the legal or moral right to despise it. The New York law is good com mon law, good common sense, and good com- mon Christian civilization. The English Election—The revolt of the British against the liberal party bids fair to be pronounced. The secret of it all is that 1o party of reform can hope to succeed with out @ moral Issue. When great moral ques- tions stand out clear the progressionists win When mere expediential issues are at stake the battle is to the conservatives. The sym pathies of most Americans are with the lib erals; but strangely enough, reactionary sen- timents prevail today even on this side of the Atlantic. This is not good weather for radicals. The English people, too, are weary of the Irish question. While Ireland las wrongs, without question, yet her causc has been so badly championed by extreme and foolish friends, and has been 8o perilously tangled up with Jesultism, that the strong hard sense of the English nation has become somewhat cloy of it. Civil Service Reform—President Cleveland on the 13th of last month sigued an order which has the effect of placing 2,600 em ployes out of partisan control and under the rules of civil service. This is a striking in dication of the success of the civil service idea. The old spoils system has never had any defenders except place hunters and in- terested politiclans. It has been a blot upon our government. Surely and swiftly the public mind is ylelding to the reasonableness and justice of civil service ; —————— Look Ou And all other contagious diseases by keep- ing a supply of Allen’s Hyglenic Food con- stantly on hand.

DEATH OF SEVERAL SMALL ORGANIZATIONS | itain the Unfons ks and the Har nd ourneymen rers Make a Treaty. Hard Matter to M of the ¥ bers—ite Horsesh Within the last year not more than half a dozen labor organizations in Omaha went to the wall, and most of these were the ones with the smallest memberships. At present there are forty organizations in this city. Of this number ten are under the jurisdiction of the Knights of Labor, the other thirty being federated and international The estimated and probable membership of them all 1s 4,000, and nearly all of them have money in thelr treasuries. That unionism has been a benefit to work- ingmen in Omaha who have practiced it is beyond question. Since the organization of Central Labor union eight ago there have been very few difficulties between em- ployers and employes which have not been satisfactorily adjusted Nearly all the important officers of the ) braska State Federation of Labor are c zens of Omaha. This organization came int existence two years ago, and promises to b come no small factor in the economic condi- tion of urban workingmen. At its last meet- ing it decided to receive delegates from farmers’ alliances. Two of the hardest classes to keep organ- ized are the retail clerks and the barbers There s apparently no good reason why the retail clerks of Omaha should not get to gether again and stay together. But there is little hope for the barbers uniting on union principles o long as the majority of them occupy the position of both employer and smploye. years Horsxeshoers ke Recognizing the virtue co-operation, Master Horseshoers' Protective association, No. 33, and Journeymen Horse- shoers’ Local union, No. 19, have enterel into an agreement for the ensuing year which is calculated to settle~the wage ques- tion between these two organizations with- out recourse to the boycott or lockout Under the terms of this agreement the em ployers promise to maintain good wages, and the employes promise to uphold fair profits to the employers. “For,” it has been asked, “unless the employers receive living prices how Is it possible for them to pay living wages?" It is not the ohject of this conjunction, the co-operators claim, to form a comb:nation and make the public pay more for horse- shoeing, but to keep prices from going any lower, and to prevent further reducing of the earnings of skilled labor. A prominent provision of the agreement is that members of the masters’ association shall not employ any journeyman unless he be a member of the journeymen's union, and that no journeyman shall work for any em- ployer not a member of the association. An- other provision is that a committee of seven shall be appointed from each organization and confer once a month, to investigate any trouble which may arise between employers and employes and endeavor to arrange the same fairly and peacably, The old scale of wagés is continued, $3 and $3.50 per day of nine hours Members of Loth bodies feel satisfled with the agreement, and are of the opinion that their example can be followed by other or- ganizations with conflicting interests with profit to all concerned. an Agre nt. in the principle of Preparing - for Labo Day. The committee appointed by the Cen‘ral Labor unfon to make arrangements for the celebration of Labor day—K. S. Fisher, J B. Schupp, W. S. Sebring, J. L. Baird and August Beerman—met yesterday at Knight of Labor hall. These gentlemen have re- ceived propositions from the managers of Courtland beach and Ruser's park, but will consider offers from other picnic points in the city before deciding where the celebra- tion will be held. Sub-committees on speak- ers and other details wilk be appointed in a day or two. The regular monthly meeting of Omaha Typographical union No. 190, held yesterday afternoon, drew ont a large attendance. In addition to the election and installation of new officers there was other business on th program of special importance. The new offi are: T. F. Sturglss, president S. Rawlins, vice pre nt; A. F. Clark, retary-treasurer; G. F. Harvel, re secretary Al Small, sergeant-at-arm Kolb, W. W. Campbell and F. Ds Anderson trustees; J. W. Vogan and E. M.

A good many raflway men of the different classes expect work when ‘‘crops begin to come in. J. C. Darnell, auditor of the International Cigarmakers union, is in the city checking up the books of Cigarmakers union No. 93. The Omaha Street Railway Benefit asso- ciation has not yet decided to burden it business meetings with the question of keep- ing up or rafsing its members' wages. Any one desiring’a copy of the constitution and by-laws of Central Labor union can ob- tain it from the secretary, K. 8. Fisher, P, 0. box 570. The basis of representation in this union s three delegates for each organiza- tion, and one additional delegate for every fifty members or majority fraction thereof.

He took an asosrtment of groceries, consisting of tea, coffee, sugar, sardines and other articles, but only five or six pounds of each article. A caddy of to- bacco was also missing. At § o'clock yesterday afternoon a horse driven by a man named Rush became un- managgable on Sixteenth street betwe:n Jones and Leavenworth streets. It dashed the buggy it was drawing into a bakery wagon that was standing by the curb and threw Rush out, but beyond a few bruises Rush escaped uninjured. The rain which fell in the city early yes- terduy morning did not extend very far west- ward. 1t did not go further west on the Burlington than Lincoln and on the Union Pacific it barely reached Fremont. East of these points there was a heavy rainfall for half to three-quarters of an hour. Northwest the rain extended to Norfolk. South and east of Omaha the rain was still heavier. Franklin John Henry was sent to the Pres- byterian hospital yesterday afternoon by City Physiclan Saville. ‘The man was suffering from some heart affection which Dr. Savill thought was aggravated by some drug he had taken.

Not a great while ago there was a fire In the Second ward, and it was necessary to lay a line of hose 2,100 feet long. When the water was turned on a stream about a foot in length came from the nozzle, and the fircmen were compelled to carry water in palls and throw on the flames. In this oll fashioned way the blaze was finally exting- uished. When the pew council took hold last April the bill of the water works company, about $10,000, was discussed, and it was decided to do ‘a bit. ot quiet investigating before the bill was paid. A request was made of C. J. Collins, local superintendent of the American Water Works company, for a chart showing the location of fire hydrants aml the size of mains. Collins declined to allow the council or the chief of the fire department to have a chart, City Engineer Beal was then sent to Omaha and procured a sort of chart, and it Is with tkis sketch that the quiet Tnvesti gation is being made. Friday afternoon Councilmen Blanchard and Walters Inspected every fire hydrant in the city, and also decided the location of hydrants could be changed so as to benefit the servic In many places it that was found a six inch main was used instead of an eight-inch | main. At the fire plug at Twenty-fourth and H streets the main starts in inch pize and runs to Twenty-second and H streets, There it Jumps into a six-inch main which runs down Twenty-second street to J street. There it taps an eight-inch line which feeds eleven hylrants, On Tweaty fifth street there is a six-ich line from I to N streets, with a dead end at Rstreet. What is needed here is a connection with the Twenty-fourth street main for a feeder. On Q street the maln is twelve inches from Twenty-fourth street to Thirty-third street, then for a distance of 400 feet there is a six-inch pipe, then a ten-inch pipe. Firemen say they cannot get any kind of service with such piping as that. What is nceded badly Is a good sixteen- inch auxiliary main on the west sile and pipes of the same size through the city.

No more attorneys will be admitted to practice by the district courts of this state The new law compels all prospective Black stones to appear before the supreme court to get thelr certificates. A decided movement was made last winter by a number of attorneys in Omaha for the purpose of getting the law this subject to conform more with the practice In eastern states. ure the enactment of the sod many stories were circulated concerning the history of lawyers in the sand hills of Nebraska who had graduated from the humbler walks of life into conservators of other people's prop- erty. The fact that attorney be- came such because he was a general good fellow and knew to treat the bar com- | mittee to the best to be found in town urged as a special why the grade of the bar should and all the prospective lawyers placed on equal footing. About five years ago a craz mitted to practice in Antelope had become a justice of the in his nelghborhood and got the idea that Provi dence had destined him for a Rufus Choate. A justice of the peace guide was about the only law book he had ever owned, but armed with this he proceeded to the county seat and demanded admission. For a solid hour he was asked questions, to all of which he gave answers readily, though they were all totally incorrect. He was, of course, not recommended to pass, but became so insistent that he was allowed to become an attorney. It cannot be sald that any such abuses are on record in Douglas county, at least of late years, whatever may be true of earlier day Lately the examinations have been carried on 5o rigldly that quite a number within the past six months have failed to get into the fold by the good old method and wiil have to try later on at the supreme court For years it has been the custom in Doug- las county to appoint a bar committee at the beginning of each term from among the leading attorneys. They were instructed to examine _all applicants,” About six years ag Simeon Bloom, who served on the bar com- mittee for some years, says that the method of written examinations was commenced, since which time there has been no complaint of favoritism. The aggrieved applicant could always secure himself by exercising an attor- ney's right and appeal. A number of other attorneys were ques tioned as to the need of the new law and united in saying that it would be of gres benefit in raising the standard of the profes- sion in Nebraska. Probably three-fourths of the attorneys dt the bar came from other states with cer. tificates of admission. The early records of the county, however, show that back in th 50s and 60s some of the present members of the Omaha bar received their sheepskins when Omaha was still a small town.

He peace LE he Northern Farmer and the Ruiser Has Now e The characteristic northern and we man was no sooner located in the than he began to experiment with a variety of crops, and the result has ben that he has developed and demonstrated the great possibilities of the rich soil and salubrious climate of that section of our common coun- try by the successful growing of wheat oats, tobacco, corn, cotton, sugar cane, or- ghum, strawberrles, peaches, plums, pears, and every varlety of vegetable. This is no longer an experiment, but an established fact in southern agriculture. You no longer ask, what crops can be successfully grown in the south? You know that anything al most that is marketable, grows there, and grows in abundance. One Mississippl sta tion shipped last season 360 carloads of to- matozs, and carloads of other farm pro ducts; th it is expected, wili be largely season. Fruit and vegatable Central Miss!ssippi ar adding new varietles to thelr already long list_of fruits and vegetables that pay & profit. The ready access to th> markets of the west, east and south, that this sectl enjoys, {s a very important factor to be considered by the Intending settler. The question is often asked as to how many acres is need:d for a successful fruli and vegetable farm in the south. This de somewhat on th: number of worker a family. Our judgment is, however, that a twenty-acre farm is the model for the southern fruit and vegetable place. This can be all worked and carefully worked, and the returns will be satisfactory, and’ the labor comparatively light. As for the cattl likely to be kept on a small place, it must be borne in mind that the forage plant, growing everywhere, has only to be cut and saved in their season, and all coarse fodder needed for the stock will he had. There is no snow on the ground for a long winter, sheds are not needed for stock, and i desired, cotton seed meal and cotton seed hulls can be had at a low price. The school advantages are excellent, the public schools having an enroliment of about 828,000, and within the last three years over 700 school houses have been erected. The state makes liberal provision for the school maintenance. The higher educational facilities are good The State University stands high as am educator. It is a fact worthy of note that the first chartered institution for the colle- glate education of young women was lo- cated in Mississippl. It 1s also worthy of note that the first college for young women established in the United States and main- tained at the public expense, is located at Columbus, Miss. Besides this there are several large educational institutions estab- lished and maintained by different religious denominations. It is evident that there is no lack of educational opportunities in this section of the country. The intelligent en- quirer will find that the investigation of the superior advantages of the south and the great fertility and accessibility of central ppi in particular, will disclose a prospect for increasing and per- prosperity of this section and ite inhabitants than shown by any other sec tion of this section.
