KEMEDY CO. 807 Masonin Temole, CHICAGO, 1LLe —— GERMAN LUTHERAN st SYNOD, jeets Discussed Yesterday—Report of Commi Missia The sessions of the Lutheran synod were continued yesterday morning with discussions on Christian congregations. It was shown that several of the poor members, especially the Greek widow were overlooked in the dis- tribution of alms. All members were caited together and witnout noticing the harshness of the complaining diffculty overcome In a friendly manner. The corgregation voted that the apostles teach the word and remain in that six members, so-called deac taks care of the poor. Men filled with wisdom and the holy w selected to these offices. It was urged that from this it is not wise, nor for the good of the church at preachers should be occupied with worldly things or the' business ~ con- cerns of their congregations, All memwbers of the congregations should have a word to say in arranging the con- cerng of the church. In this manner, being well constituted, the church also doy mission work; many priests were conv rted, not indeed by the fact that the church was well ordered. Nothing but the word ef God con- verts man. But when everything is well ranged in the church, according to the word, then this draws people to it. Thus the congregation at ‘Jefusalem was woll fourded and inpure €lements were expellod, Now persecution set in. Stephanus, one of the six deacons, came into dispute with. the Pharisees and was shortly after stoned to death. The consequence was that many members were dispersed throughout the lany of Judea. The apostles remaned 1n Jerusalem. ‘A" prcacher who leaves his charge in times of tribulation is aceordingly unfaithful. “But the dispersed Christigny preached or talked of that which filled their hearts, and 80 founded many congregations outside of Jerusalem. All Christians shonld not forget this, that they should preach the gospel wherever they have an opportunity and thus do the work which the Lord wills them o do. “During the persecutions the Christians at Jerusalem edified themselves by meeting {n dwellings and in the halls of the temples, by exliorting and admonishing themselves. ywith the word. We read nothing of societies in the church. The church itself was one grang s0C sufficient for all purpose A 'he second mgregation we Acts is the one at Samaria, Philipp. an- other deacon, preached to the Samaritane, those people with whom orthodox Jews had no communion, But although the Jews haq rot recelve the gospel the Samaritans ac- cepted it Philipp was not a sensational preacher. He spoke simply of Christ ergel. fled. Thereafter Peter and John were sent by the Christians in Jerusalem, who thus itered in unity with the young Christlans a1 Samaria. ‘In this congregation we notice the work of darkness. Hardly had-these people come to Christ than satan sought to destroy them. We see this In the person of Simon, the conjuror, who offered money to Peter for the power of giving the spirit by laying on of hands. He had come to faith, but had soon lost 1t and desired to practice his ways under the guise of Christianity. But Poter repulsed him, telling him that he had no part with the Christians. Tius Simon is an example of such who Join the Christians, but fall back into their old ways, or, be. cause he desired the sift of conferring the spirit, he is an exampie of such teachers, Wwho ouly seek their good and not the welfare of those who are entrusted to their care But as Peter repulsed him, 5o it is the duty of the church to expel all such corruption ami clesn itself from such impurity whereve it is exposed.” The committee on approval of constitu- tions reported recommended to r ive the following congregations into the synod Evangelical Lutheran coy jgregations of Grand Island, Hayestown and Sweetwater, The committee on missions reported that the synod has its missions chlefly among ermans of this state and Wyoming and in the eastern part of Colorado, sending the gos. pel to the dispersed Lutherans, who are too few aud too poor to maintain churches of their own. In this wofk ¥he synod has sup- ported In the past year, Wholly or in part, ineteen preachers and g, paroehial school teacher. — These have faken care of forty- eight congregations and fiity preaching Dlaces. The expenses of thi§ work amount to $581 per month. On aunt of hard times the committee reported ‘ardebt of $1.121, and recommended the lay members of the synod to raise a collection in thelr con, gations in order to wipe out the claim, The committes teported upon the condjti of the several congregations and Fresching stations. Dar- ing the past year the work has grown con siderably. It was repiygd to allow the congregation of North Omaba $150 per annum for & school teacher, and the congregation at Lawrence s, ones tne was whole should prayer, and ns, spirit read of in ect to Attancks of Choler: While staying in the Delta (Mississippi Bottoms) last summer, '8 T.

He was a fine looking fellow and I found myself pitying him for his misdeeds while I resolved to do my duty by my employers.

THE As 1 laid n the was to expose him what is it?* I replied yihe wislied to speak to you left.” and started to walk away to the office, but T begged him to be seated while I inquired it Mr. Forsythe was ready for the interview. He sat down upcn one of the cushioned stools with a rather sulky air, while [ went to the private office and knocked gently upon the door, “Come in The head at his desk turned to me dress him. “Mr. Mathews is outside, sir,’ . “I was standing watching the clerks and gems in thel sir, of the firm as I entered and nodded was busily . but he presently permission to ad I began. in a corner a bit ago, stow away the jewelry es preparatory to lock- ing them up for the night, and glancing at one whose back was toward me, I saw his elbow go up and his hand made a swift motion toward his vest pocket. He was bending over a tray of unset diamonds, arranging them in their pouches, and presently I saw the motion repeated. It was enough to convince me, sir, that you are being robbed, but I walted quietly until the man was going out and then asked him to remain a few mo- ments, as you wishel to speik to him. It was Mr, Mathew sir,” During this speech watching me inte prised to observe Mr. Forsythe was Iy, and I was rather sur- at its conclusion that al though my tale had doubtless interested him, he appeared to be thinking of some- thing else. I stood for a few moments watch- ing the preoccupied look upon face. He was a handsomely dressed, portly gentle man of about 6 ars, with a nearly bald head, whiskers of pure white, a ruddy com- plexion and large, keen gray eyes. “Shall T show him in, sir?" I v ask, after a somewhat lengthy pause. He roused himself, nodded gravely replied “Certainly! Ask remain within call.”” I returned to* Mathews. a bit enxious and uneasy, into the office without a word. The last clerk but him had left the store. I bolted and locked all the doors. In about five minutes peared at his office angry. his and him to step in. And He was looking bat he walked Mr. door, Forsythe flushed “‘Andrews, you have been unjust and fool- | ish.

You shall not prosecute mother when you come a thief.” As soon his own s his hat, sir,” I answered, Well, sir?” on the show The diamond it case where he are inside the are dismissed, you.

Josephine was my sweetheart, Her father, M. Jules Croneau, was ostensibly a seller of French books and publications on West Fourteenth street. He was a quiet, scholarly appearing man, evidently a gentle- man, and conveying the impression that his birth was better than his ealling. My room was in an upper story of the same building occupled by M. Croneau, and as I seldom pt later than noon, albeit my work oc- cupied me all night, [ had formed the a quaintance of father and daughter by ping in at the shop: and soon becoming des- perately In love with Josephine I had come to spend nearly every afternoon In her so e sake of his mother, fety. I often wondered how M managed to Mve, for people- in search of French publications are not numerous in New York and the few customers who in, though mostly compatriots, were treate £0 coolly by the proprietor of the somewhat dingy )ittle shop that they seldom came again and the business scemed to languish, while M. Croneau grew apparently more prosperous day by day Josephine was a real avow that—and sweet womanly. She tended beauty—no need and ~ modest to the store—a duty seemed rather averse to, and I fancled my visits were welcome as a relief from the ennui of her position, even if she did not re gard me in a still better light We were seldom interrupted in our tete a-tetes, as M. Croneau spent his time whil at home fn a back store-room, partitioned off from the front; but very often he passed the entire day elsewhere, whetler on busi ness or pleasure I did not know Josephine taught me French from th in that language-that lined ber shelve: I caught the mccent from her own lips.

The newly arrived packing box stood in the center of the floor, but It was empty. Nor were any books, new or old, to be seen anywhere, I was about to with draw, feeling trifle guilty, when my eye was caught by an objéct in the fireplace. It was the back of a burned book, and examin ing more closely I discovered a very largs quantity of burned paper in the grate was singular—that a man should receive a box of new publications and at once burn | them. I scented a mystery, and examinel further. My search was rewar a bran new volume by D Boisgobey | ing on the floor, between the desk screen.

Why was this perforation made? If you opened | the pages at where the hole began it scemed | like a tiny pocket, the bottom betng formed by the pages that had been left intact. It could scarcely be an accident. Then this pocket had been made for a purpoese. But what purpose? A dry cough aroused me, and | T looked wp. | M. Cronean was standing before me, re- rding my face with a strange intensity. We stared at one another a full minute, and during that time the expression of his eyes denoted dismay, anger, doubt and fear—but his features never moved a muscle. Then he reached out his hand, took the book from my unresisting fingers, walked back to his room and closed the door behind him, without so much as a word or backward look. Josephine came in and thanked me prettily for relieving her. But it was time for my engagement with Mr. Forsythe, so I con- tented myself with a few tender words and a pressure of her little hand, and started on | my mission. On the way I pondered the events of the norning and came to the conclusion that M. ‘roneau was a’'strange man—a stranger man han I had thought; and that strange things we taking place under cover of that book business. But was it any afflair of mine? I was in love with this man's daughter; she enccuraged me in the belief that she recipro- cated my passion, and undoubtedly my best policy was to say nothing and see no more than I could help seeing. Resolving thus I came to the store and was ushered into Mr. Forsythe's office. He was writing when I entered, and motioned me to a seat. Presently he faced about and regarded me almost as attentively as had M. Croneau so shortly before. But the expression of his eyes was first questioning, then cautious and finally trustful. “How long have you been in our employ, Mr. Andrews? was his first question. Nearly two years, sir.” “You were recommended by Mr. Ransom, the lawyer?" Yes, sir; he was my father's friend, and signed ‘my bond.” Also vouching Is the position one? “I have nothing to complain of, cepting that I believe mysel better things." “Bxactly." to us for your good you occupy a character. satisfactory sir, ex f capable of doing He seemed to for a moment and then asked “Have you any ties that would you accepling a mission that will take you across the ocean—on a long and probably perilous journey to a half civilized land > I own I was startled.

The Bee Publishing company yesterday filed its showing, and ther intervenors have announced thelr ine of also appearing in the The petition of fntervention just filed makes demands for the court's protection against the fraud and collusion of the stocks holders of the Morse Dry Goods company similar those which have been detalled by Max Martin and tho other creditors joining with him in the petition filed by them a few days ago. At that time the court was not only asked to appoint a receiver for the property, whieh has done, but for an inju was granted, pre- venting sherift from selling the M under levies of execution made in favor of the Omaha National bank, Claflin & Co., and other preferred creditors who, having procured these mfessions on August 15, slipped in at once and attempted to get prior liens, to the exclusion of all other creditors Relating the details of this transaction, the intervenors proceed to aver that the wholo scheme was a fraudulent one, co cocted by the stockholders and directors, who cons spired with W, V. Morse ana 0. J. Lewis a Boston member of the firm, to give (ho preferred creditors an illegal, unjust and inequitable preferenc These allegations are backed up by an extended account of the cereer of S. I, Morse since he embarked fn the dry p0ds business in Omaha in 1876, At that time he was located on Tenth and; Jackson streets, Subsequently h formed a partnership with W. V. Morse and 0.

In 1890 the company located in Fred Ames' building at 214-216 South Sixteenth street The annual rent alone was $18,000 and to make this good W. V. Mors il 0. J. Lewis found it necessary to guarantee the payment Then the trouble, so the petition states, began. 8. P. Morse was still a member of the firm, but by reason of his eccentric and irregular habits and on account or his extravagant and expensive living, which he carricd on for the two years following, husiness began to shrink in volume, it is alleged, and proft dwindled away. Still 8. P, failed to attend to business and so in 1892 W, Morse summarilly removed him fr the firm ana his conncetion ceased. That same fall . P. Morse tried to cmbark on his own account business, but the following Apr the stock was replevined and the firm went to the wall In fact, it is al- leged that from and after the spring of 189% . Morse was an insolvent In 1893 and 1894 bus! itinued to shrink am. zingly, and W, V. Morse and 0. J. Lewis were coms pelled to put up therr nersonal pledge to get dry goods, and 1t was generaily understood that on February 1 of this year the ness would be finally wound up. At that time an invoico was taken of the stock, showing nominally $100,000 on hand, though it is alleged the stock was worth but $50,000. A plan was formed to unload tha stock of the Mor: Dry Goods company on a new corporation, called the S. P. Morse Dry ods company. Reputable citlzens of tha. town were induced to take stock on fa/@ represcntations, among the number heing men as Boyd and Bates. But on learn- ing of the facts there was a general with- drawal all along the line. The petition re- cites that in making the transfer to the new company, $40,000 of the invoice was actually transferred to the new company as a gift; that the balance of the $80,000 was transferred by mears of notes. Among the new stockhoklers might be mentioned the bookkeeper, Haverly. These notes were parceled out among the creditors.

OWEN HAS § PREACHER, Lawyers Wa Hax the A kidnaped preacher, Rev. O. D. Taylor, was due in Omaha the carly part of this week. The officers of the law and his at- torneys have been anxiously scanning every Incoming train in the delusive hope of lo cating the reverend gentleman and extending to him the aid of the law for the purposs of extracting him from the clutches of a man named Owen. Who this man Owen is, or why he maintains his grip on the preacher, no one in Omaha knows. As near as can be ascertained he claims to be an officer of the law who desires to place the preacher in legal custody. Taylor at the 1e of his capture was in The Dalles, Ore. He says that he informed his Portland at- torneys of the trouble he was in by wire, statiug that his destination, according to what he could aseertain from Owen, was Omaha as an intermediate stopping polnt. The Portland attorneys wired H. J. Davis to habeas corpus the preacher when he arrived in this city. This is the way the ease stands, he officers are still looking for the kidnaper and his ward Minor Matters in Court.

Death of John E. Powers, John E. Powers, an esteemed and popular son of Omaha, died at the home of his parents yesterday morning, aged 23. The announce- ment of his death, though expected for some time, was a severe shock to his friends. Until a very recent period Mr. Powers pos- sessed a physique that was the envy of ath- letes. Tall, sinewy, gracaful in every move- ment, he was prominent in various athlet sports, and for several years managed and developed the athletic elass of the Young Men's lustitute. He was a most genial com- panion, & steadfast friend, and an Ind fatigable worker in whatever he undertook Last winter he went to Florida, hoping that a milder climate would stay the inroac disease. but the mission was fruitiess. The funeral will take place at 9 a. Monday from the family residence, South Twenty-second street, to St church. Interment will be at cemetery A meeting of Carroll couneil, Young Men's Institute, will be held at the Institute rooms Saturday evening, to take appropriate action on the death of Mr. Powers. ——— The Leader. “Calumet” was the first, and is the only high grade Baking Powder offered to the American people at a moderate price.
