AL OF HARVEST HOME FESTIV Bpecial Bervices at a Number of Ohurches Yesterday, GLAD DECORATION IN FRUIT AND GRAIN Joy Over n Hounteous Yenr Expressed in Songs of Cholrs and ldren and Gratitude In Devout Acknowledgement. fhe commencement of its new quarter and the fall work of the school was fittingly observed by the First Methodist Sunday school yesterday noon by the celebration of the Harvest Home festival. Pretty decorations had been placed about the room, consisting of the fruits of the earth. Corn and apples hung from the chan- dellers and wreaths of wheat and oats burfed the columns with a suggestive in- dleation of the nature of the servi The Sunday school numbers pupils at the outset of the year. The seating capacity of the room was taxed by the large band of little ones and older puplls present. The regular study of the lesson was dispensed with In order to carry out a special pro- gram The exercises were songs and recitations by the children. Songs wcre sung by 'the primary class and a chorus of five girls, those taking part in this service being Rose Mackenzle, Carro!l Belden, Susie Payne, Mary McKennon and Hazel Thompson. Lottu Rohrbaugh recited “The Bread of Life" Herman Cortelyou, ** God's Plants’ Matthews, “Faith”; Robert Wilson, “Union in Christ”; Suste Roberts, “Doing for Christ.” “A Useless Life” by Leslie McDearmid, and “The Christiin R-wird” by Beriha M 1ls, co..- cluded the recitations by the Sunday school children, and the superintendent then gave a brief summary of the next quarter’s les- son BRCISES AT TRINITY CATHEDRAL The festival of the Harvest Home was cele brated at Trinity cathedral yesterday. The church was beautifully decorated with flowers, grains and grasses in houor of the event, and a speclal musical program was rendered. “Oh Worship the Lord,” a harvest anuthem was sung by Paul Beresford, aud the offertory by Lot and “The Pilgrims' Chorus” as played by Prof. Butler were exceptionally well given. The church was filled by a co gregation that listened to Dean Gard: short address on the observance of this fes day in the church year, a year of plenty and abundance, for which should be truly thankful, a year which contrast to the one previous like passing from a desert into a land of milk and honey. With vast seas of billowy corn stretching for miles to the west, and other products more than enough to supply the boldily wants, there was no need to look forward to this winter with dread; there was enough for all, and to spare, Special prayer meetings will be held during the week to commemorate the passing of the harvest festival, and all are invited to attend The Harvest Home festival celebration at the Church of the Good Shepherd yesterday morning was beautiful and the special serv- fces $ery impressive. The decorations In th chancel ‘and about the altar were significant of the festival. On either side of the chancel were pyramids of vegetables, fruits and grasses, The bishop's chfir was laden with vegetables of all kinds, K3ack of the altar was a lovely arrangement{of corn, oats, wild flowers and potted plants. On the steps lead {ng to the altar rail were lines of fruits of all Kinds. Rev. J. P. D. Llwyd preached a sermon, dealing with the subjeot of the harvest fes- tiyal, and explaining the olden time custom of observing Michaelmas day, on which Sun- day the festival geuerally occurs. Al musical progrum ‘consisted of Te Deum, processional hymn 193, and recessional hymn 450. During offertory Mrs, Charles K. Urquhart sang “Callest Thou Mé, O Master?

CECOCETREL0OCTCICOCO0NC A Remarkable Scene—A scene occurred in Indianapolis the other day which it wouid be hard to duplicate in any other city of the union. The Methodist conference, which was In session there, was addressed by an ex- president, a mayor, a board of public safety, and a chief of police, all of whom were resi- dents of the city and members of evangelical churches. When ex-President Harrison was Introduced to the conference he was greetel With hand-clapping, handkerchief-waving, and three listy Methodist cheers, He made one of those felicitous speeches for which he s famous, saying, among other things: “Same time ago in some of the denomina- tions there seemed to be an fmpression that the country could not be talked about in an ecelesiastical meeting. The Methodist church never fell into that mistake; and it is one of the pleasant signs of the time that all of the churches and all of the religious organ'za- tions—especially the organizations of young people of the churches, which are now so Jarge and useful—have come to recognize the fact that the service of God and the service of one’s country, a Christian life and a life of good citizenship, are not only reconcilable, but are inscparable.” Mayor Denny, Mr. Conner and Mr. White of the Board of Public Safety, and George W. Powell. chicf of police, were escorted to the platform and were introduced to the audience. Mayor Denny spoke about the n- forcement of laws, of how he had made promises two years ago, and how he had endcavored o Keep them. Said he: “I can- not claim credit myself, the main credit is due to the men who occupy this platform.” He gave an account of how public gambling was suppressed in that city within twenty- four hours after he went futo office, and of the effort that had been made to enforce the liquor law. Mr. Conner and Mr. White £poke briefly and then Mr. Powell took the house by storm, so to speak. The bishop began by Introducing him as “the man who does the business.”” He spoke in part: *1 have been a Methodist since 1864, and a shouting Methodist at that. I had hoped that this conference would dwell in harmony, but you have been obliged to call in the mayor and chief of police.”” There was great applause and laughter at this, and he con- tinued: “When laws are to be enforced, it can be done. Be careful to pass right laws, and when you go back to your towns tell our weak-kneed autuorities to enforce the WS or get out of the harness.” (More ap- plausc) The Pulpit wants to commend this example of the “man who does the business' to_the officials of this city. The Chicago Barbers—The Chicago papers of last Monday tell of the successful closing of the barber shops the preceding Sunday. The reporter, in his rounds among the barbers, found them uniformly rejoicing. The sentiment amoug them is strongiy in favor of he plan. There is no reason why barbers should not have one day's rest in seven, as well as any other class of men., There is no reason why Omaha barbers should not have a Sunday as well as Chicago barbers; that is there Is no reazon except the greed of some bosses, the dog-1'ke seifishness of some customers, and the remarkable and peculiar cerebration of our present yor, who vetoed the barber's Sunday closing law be- cauee it was “elass legislation.”” Of course it was. It was first cass logislation. Governor Culberson and the Prize Fight— Governor Culberson of Texas has called a speclal sesslon of the legislature to pass & law prohibiting the prize fight between Cor. bett and Fitzsimmons. The idea! As well call a session of the city council to stop a dog fight. The prize ring is an offense against the peace of the community, aud Governor Culberson would be jusilfied in ordering his rangers to disperse the precious & of toughs without warrant or writ rs. Culberson has baen Interviewed in Chi- cago and is stated to have said that she wished her husband would “let them fight," for every man in Texas wanted it. Every man from Texas who hal spoken to her, sl sald, had hoped the fight would come off. All of which ralszes a wonder as Lo what sort of mea from Texas Mrs, Culbesson has | been conversing with in Chicago; that s, pro- vided the whole Interview is not a lle, which it probably is. AMUSEMENTS. Two houses full of lovers of melo-drama saw Sutton Vane's “Cotton King" at the Crelghton yesterday and gave every Indication of delight at the unfolding of the somewhat lurid story of the fortunes of Jack Osborne. The play Is a good example of that kind of melo-drama which found iis highest level in “The Silver King,” and the gallery is not dis- appointed in the means employed to reward virtue and castigate vice, The scenic effecis are of a beauty rarely displayed, even in the most ambitious productions, and the mechan- ical settings are wonders of stage carpentery. The piece Is presented by a moderately com- petent cast, in_which Ciaude H. Brooke, as Shillinglaw, and E. J. Herron, as Tupper, are conspicuous. Rose Beaudet, a young woman of generous physique, created considerable amusement as the strong girl. “Too Much Johnzon,” direct from a run of an entire season in New York, with tho au- thor, William Gillette, as the central figure of the original cast, will bs presented at Boyd's next Wednesday and Thursday. Mr. Gillette has not visiled this city for seven or elght y but his works, among which may be mentioned “Held by the Enemy,” “The Private Secretary” and “Mr. Wiikin- son’s Widows,” have always been successful, and as in “Too Much Johnson' th ol uthor will be seen in the dual r y wright and comedian, more than ordinary in- tere should attach to the engagement., The play is described as being a study in laugh- ter, which begins with the rise of the curtain and never coates until its final fall. The au- thor acknowledges that the idea of ““Too Much Johnson” {5 based upon the French vaude ville “Tomassin Plantation,” but only the idea, as in dialogue and character entire orig. inality is claimed. The company, under the management of Charles Frohman, includes Miss Maud Haslam, Miss Kate Meek, Mr. Ralph Delmore, Mr. Charles Bell, Mr. Rob- ert Hickman, Mr. Samuel Reed, Miss Lora'ne Dreux, Mr. Charles Crosby, Benjamin Hen- dricks, Cezil Lionel and Thomas Erison. Tho ale of seats will open tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock. of p! The usual Sunday night audience saw Sam T. Jack's Extravaganza company in “The Bull Fighter” at Boyd's theater last night. In the first act Morris and Van Osten pro- voked much mirth with their “new inven- tion,” the telophone, accompanying which there were somo new jokes. Kittie Palmer, a graceful little dancer, was encored several times. And “Tho Band Played On,” a song which secms to be growing immensely: popu lar, was well sung by the leading vaudeville stars, Agnes Bvans and Nettie Huffman. A burlesque on the Salvation Army, the pro priety of which was questioned by a number present, drew forth storms of applause from the ‘“gallery gods.”” Between the acts a dozen living pictures, without which no va- entertainment of today is complete, were presented. The plot is lost sight of during the first act, but comes into evidence during the ne act. There Is a scene of a bull fight in (h» City of Mex'co, an exciting ho race, and a bull fight in which Don Pedro comes out victorious—:zuffi cient of the spectacular to give title to the play. The negro manner’sms were well given by Clemens and Barner. Of Fitzgerald Murphy's play, which will occupy the stage at Boyd's Friday and Sat- urday evenings of this week, the Denver Re- publican says: “The Sflver Lining,".which was produced at the Broadway theater last night, is a play which is liable to attract people who do not usually patronize the play house. It deals with the financial question to a large extent, and preaches in a striking mazmer the doctrine of free silver, It is a play with a mission, and Vere is no attemp’ to hide it, and while plays and books with some particular_objectin view are scouted at by a certain portion, they are all the more attractive o another section of the community, ““The Silver Lining” has a num- ber of stirring situations, and is bullt on the lines of dramas that have proved to be money makers. It is up to date, too, and deals with the financial crisis, the railroad ‘strike, the tramp movement and the bloomer girl. There Is the honest, blunt farmer, with a mort- gage on his farm, the sympathetic tramp, a banker's daughter, an English financler, who gets possession of the mortgage, with sev- eral new stage types in addi‘ion, and they manage to make the scenes quite interesting “A Romance of Coon Hollow! of southern love a plicity, enhianced tells a story d hate, of Intrigue and du- by scenic and mechanical effects. Among the scenes that add to the effectiveness of the plece is that of a burg lary, where the m'dnight mechanic plies his Iling under cover of the night. Another scene Is that of the historical steamboat race between the Robart E. Lee and the Natchez on the Mississippl at night, with the boats lighted and under a full head of steam. A view of a river wood landing with colored boys and girls in twil'ght darky revels, songs and dances s one of the prettiest effects of the play. Two quirtets of darky boys and gitls furnish music. A competent company, calcium and electrical effects, and a troupe of darky buck and wing dancers are used in this production. “Coon Hollow” will be sean at the Creighton for three nights, commenc'ng Friday, October 4. Tho usual Saturday and Sunday matinees will be presented, the en- gagement closing with a performance Sunday evening. The scenes of Edwin Milton Royle's new play, “Mexico,” are all laid In Old Mexico. The scene of the prologue is Monteray, the first act Saltillo, the sccond Buena Vista and the last act Chapultepec. All these places are of historic Interest, as they were the theater of the exciting events of the war of 18467 between Me and the United States, and also noted for their picturesque environments, which have been reproduced in the scenery of the new play. The com- pany includes the author, Edwin Milton Royle, Selena Fetter Royle, Lucius Hender- son, Harry Allen, Gretchen Lyons and Frank Kelly, who made fuch artistic successes in Mr. Royle's successtul comedy drama, Friends,” and also I*. A. Tanneh'll, William Humphreys, Gus Frankel anl othor favorite players well known to the metropolitan stage. “Mexico” and “Friends” will be the attrac- tions at the Crelghton for three uights, con mencing Monday, October 7. e RS SO UNDERSTANDS 1T, ming to Omaha as as Practic F.

When asked if his road contemplated coming into Omaha in event of the Union depot be- ing located at the foot of Farnam, he said, “Yes, I think there is no question but that the road will eventually build inte Omaha. 1 have not heard anything authentic as to when it will ba done, but there has been an in- tention all along by stockholders of the road to enter Omaha provided satisfactory terminal facllities could be secured.

Reyuolds, City Pass'r, Agent, THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SYMPATHY FOR MAGDALENES Mass Meeting in Interest of Good Bhepherd Home Fair, BOYD'S THEATER WAS CROWDED Addresses by Mayor Bemis, Mra. Lake and General Manderson—Fea- tures of the Socinl Evil Discussed, Nearly every seat In Boyd's theater was occupled yesterday afternoon when the Sutor- fus Mandolin club opened the mass me:t- ing called for the purpose of awakening in- terest In the fair which opens at Creighton hall today for the benefit of the Home of the Good Shepherd. Mayor Bemis presided and made the introductory address. He said that it was a fact apparent to all that the existing code of morals was radically wrong in that it allowed greater liberty to men than to women. For the for- mer there were no terrors for the commis- sion of the crime forbidden by the seventh commandment, but or women the bridge, morphine and the plstol wait:d. “I heartily endorse the work of the sisters of the Home of the Good Shepherd,” said the mayor. “I have been criticised for not driv- ing all the fallen women of Omaha into the Missouri river. It 1 have dealt leniently Wwith these unfortunate women it is because my Christianity is in my heart rather than in my head alone.” Mrs. Leonore Lake of St. Louls was then introduced to the assemblage and was heart- 1ly welcomed. She said that eshe hoped none present would expect something un- usual because she was a woman. She canie across the plains trusting to find here re- sponsive hearts to the old, old story, “Love ye one another even as I have loved you. VIRTUE OF SYMPATHY. Mrs. Lake said that she would imitate her brother preacher in sclceting a text, It was “‘Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so you fulfill the law of Christ,” St. Pau message to the Galatians, She said no mat- ter what life's burdens were they were made lighter if we had some one to share them with us. As there is more pleasure in giving than in receiving, so there is pleasure in helping others to share their burdens “Who are we that we should judge our fallen sisters? That judgment is reserved for the Almighty Judge. Who are those who are helping these women? They are the sisters who have given their lives to follow the example of the Good Shepherd, who left his flock to go after the one sheep’ that was lost. These are the good workers we are to assist during the coming week. They have lett homes of luxury to devote themselves to this gloricus work of rescue. “When we loathe and scorn these Mag- dalenes of today we forget the strength of our own womanhood. We forget to thank God for our own purity. We mothers teach the seventh commandment to our daughters, but through our silence and innocence we say to our sons, ‘Go break it.” We have always looked upon man’s licentiousness as a matter of indifference, whils we have cast out the women who darad to violate this sacred commandment. There is nothing to warrant the thought that men are excused from observing the list of “Thou Shalt nots' by which we judge our sister. woman. DUTY TOWARD SERVANTS. “How shall we fulfill this law of Christ? First, by our own good example to our house- hold, by a determination to look for as much good in the world as we can find, by treat- ing the bad with as much Christian kindness as we can. We, as employers of servante, owe a solemn duty to them and to society. We give a certain number of dollars to them cvery week, and expect- the reasonable amount of service each week. But let us give them love, and help them to share the burdens of this life. Many. a girl has taken up a life of shame in order to escape a lite of drudgery and hardship. So let us be kind and courieous to our servants, and to the women we meet in the outer world When we visit a home for these poor women who have fallen, let it not be out of idle curiosity, but let it be from kindly sympathy. Thero is not a woman, no matter how low she may have fallen, no matter how black her heart may be staived with crime, who is not my sister, and who is not yours. And we cannot escape the responsibility of sisterhood, however hard we may try. “What are the causes of this great soclal evil? There are many causes, betrayal, so- luction, despair, but a greater cause than all of these is’ intemperance. We women wha have wine on our sideboards tempt our weaker servants to the use of intoxicants; it may be slight at first, but the awful ap- petite grows, and the poor woman Is soon leading a life of shame. I seriously doubt whether the responsibility for the downfall of these women rests more heavily upon them than upon us who do mot help them to bear their burdens. GENERAL MANDERSON'S ADDRESS. After a banjo solo by Eugene H. Cummings and another selection by the mandolin club, General Manderson was Introduced. He praised in high terms the chaste and ad- mirable address of Mrs. Lake, and declared himself at a loss what to say in view of the excelience of that address. He said that there bad been more charity in the world during the last quarter of a century than ~ ever before in the history of the world. “lts fnfluence has even been felt,” he said, “through our state and national legisiative halls, There has been taxation for the supzort of asylums and other charitable institutions, but not a murmur of complaint has been heard. The.whip of the taskmaster has been put away, and we have abolished child labor ‘within our factories. When I was a boy the founding of Girard college for orphan boys of Philadelphia was looked upon as something wonderful. Today the establishment of hospitals, libraries, asy- lums creates no surprise.’” The general spok> of the recent reunion of unfon and confederate soldiers, and said that it was charity of view and charity of purpose that made such reunions possible. He sald that this was the kind of charity most nceded, and then we assist with greater willingness the effort to reclaim those who have fallen. —_—— ALS QUT THIS OUT.

In Controversy with Sheriffi Regard e Pa Trouble has arisen between about thirty of the clerks at the old Morse store and Sherift Drexel, which the clerks show a diepesition to carry into the courts, for they have already gone %o far as to place their grievance in the hands of an attorney. When the store was closed by creditors Deputy Rosenzwelg was put in charge, and the clerks allege that in retaining them to make an inventory the sheriff agreed to pay them a stipulated sum per day each, which was somewhat in excess of their daily earnings on the weckly wage basis. After five days the receiver took control. The complaint of the clerks is that they were several wesks getting any pay from the sherift for. the five days they were engaged by him, and that then he allowed them only in proportion to their former wages per week. This was not satisfactory, and ne- gotlations were kept up for the pay stipu- lated, the balance in all amounting to about 260, sSa!urdJy the clerks say they received an offer to settle for halt this amount. Some of them were willing o accept, but the majority stood out for the whole, and there the matter still stands. ————— Drs.

TRACKING Errand HER HUSBAND, that Brings Mes, Denver to Omahn. A woman over six feet tall and bullt on a generous plan created considerablo excitement at the unlon depot last evening. She was looking, she sald, for her husband, Dr. George B. Fitch, and a spiritualistic healer named Donovan, She stated that Donovan was a thoroughly bad man, that he was wanted in soveral places for obtalning money under falte pretenses, using seances as a means to extract the coln from his vietims, Dono- van and her husband, who s in the magnetic and faith healing business, met In Denver about a week ago and after they became ac- quainted Mrs. Fitch alleges that Donovan exerted a mysterious influence over her hus- band, which grew stronger day by day, until he at length had Fiteh completely in his power, The affair culminated a week ago when without warning the doctor deserted her, coming to this ¢!ty with Donovan. She took the next train to Omaha and upon arriv- fng here found that Donovan and her hus- band had a room at 606 North Scventesnth street. When she called at the place both parties were out and sho ascertained from the landlady that they would not be back for several days. Mrs, Fitch says that Donovan is wanted in Ca daga, N for confidencing a rich widow res'ding there named Mrs. A. L. Pet- tengale out of $2,700. “I balieve Donovan to be a very bid man,” sald she. “He told me while in Denver that he had hoodwinked Mrs, Pettengale out of $2,700 under the prim se to make her a spiritualist medium, and when I asked him why he did so, he informed me that t was the way he made his liv- ing. He is what is call:d a picture med'um Instead of writing words on slates, as most mediums do, he draws pictures in colors, My husband has considerable money and 1 am afraid that he will gain possession of it before I can stop him. Donovan has the power to hypnotize and 1 think he has my husband under this influence. 1 don’t think they in- tend to return to this city, as they told their landlady they would, but have left it for good. I learned from the policaman here that a party aaswering the description of Donovan left for Lincoln this morning and I have no doubt that my husband went with him.” gic- Dl Health in the ouse .
