THE OMAHA' DAILY BEE: LAMENT FOR DEAD BRETHREN [i’I“..‘Z?ZEf publications of today: Omabs and Oouncil Bluffs Elks Jota in Lodge of Borrow, EXALTED RULER POINTS TO THE FUTURE Grave ias No Victory in the Death of These G Before—§ ot Omaha Lodge Die Dur- ing the Year. The annual memorial services of the Penevolent and Protective Order of Eiks was held at the Orpheum theater Sunday morn| Twenty-six deaths bave occurrsd since the institution of the Omaha lodge, four members—Kdgar B. Edwards, Grant Hulstzer, Edward Larkin and Homer B. ‘Wheeler having died sinoe last December. The newly Instituted lodge at Council Bluffs Inln.d with the Omaha lodge In commemo- rating its dead, this being the first time in the history of the soclety that two lodges have combined for the purposo of holding & 1odge of sorrow. The stage at the theater was beautifully decorated with the emblems of the order, & large elk occupying the left of the stage | at the rear entrance. 1In the horns were hung eloctric lights in the colors of the order, while over the conter of the stage was suspended & mammoth elk’s head sim- flarly decorated. Palms and potted plants fillod the space botween the symbolic dec- orations, whilo American flags and buntisg were profusely dlsplayed. As tho curtain rose Lysle I Abbott, ex- alted ruler of Omaba lodge, opened the momorial service with a brief ritualtatie addross. Then the lights were turned out | and a banner on the stage containing the names of the doparted Elks shone with eleo- tric brilliancy. command of the exalted ruler, read the names appearing on the banmer the light bohiud 1t was extinguished. Twenty-six names wero read and as the last name was proncusced the lights were restored and the ritualistic address of the exalted ruler con- cluded “The Lest Chord” was then rendered by the Harmony Mixed quartet and the open- ing corsmonies of the lodge of sorrow were continued, the entire audlence and lodge joining In singing the opening ode. After ihe tnvocation by Acting Chaplain A. Fl- lott Miller Howard I, Stryker sang a bass solo, “A Dream of Paradise.” Thon followed the first eulogy, pro- nounced by John N. Baldwin of Council Blufts lodge, which fa fortunate in having no departed members. Mr. Baldwin was introduced by Mr. Abbott. He opened his remarks by explaining the fundamental principles of tse order: “That to be faith- ful to & memory only 15 to admit infidelity during !fe; “the thinker and the actor ate, but the thoughts and the deed live on forever;” “tha joy of the thought of being remembered hereafter gives strength to man in the present “the order remembers the departed members, but it does more it strengthens and aids the 1iving member. Ho closed by paying tributo to the present grand exaited ruler. The solo of Mrs. Bdward S. McKinney of Kansas City followed. Mrs. McKinney bas a strovg, flexiblo contralto volce of great depth and sweotness. Her selection, “Shall Wo Meet Boyond the River,” was well re- coived. Following this solo the Harmony mixed quartet sang “Abide With Me” and Jerome B. Fisher, grand exalted ruler, was tntroduced. Death Without a Sting. The speakor sald in part: “I do not see that this day should bo made a time of sadnese. The dead are boyond the pain. We today crown the antlers of the elk with flowers commemorative of the sweetness of the iives of those gone bofore. i tho athelst and he will ray thera 18 no God. In such a belief there is no com- fort aud mo joy—no state of hope. All as- pirations of man are naught If this fs s 1 would rather helieve in the awful doc- trine of cternal punishment than to belleve in total annihilation. “Every Elk believes in a supreme belng. 1 believe that in this body there is a soul that will live on when all else has passed away. But this is no time to argue the existence of God or the immortality of the soul. There I8 no proof, but the greatest minds in history have belleved in God. All naturo proclaima tho existence of a God. I am not a bellever in the theory of accident or chance because for every law thero is a lawgiver. We have not all had the same environment and advantages or we would all belleve alitke and think allke. I be- llevo in the religion of love. “Tho Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks is a fraterual soclety. Its cardinal principlos—charity, justice, brotherly love and fidelity—are not glven to take the place of any religlon, but are the foundation of a great order. The world is better, wiser, purer and more charitable today than it ever was before. We are on the threshold of a new century. Matertal developmont has been revolutionized and the spirit of the people has kept pace. “I do not mean to say the millennium is at hand, but the day s surely coming when nations ehall not war with nation The Order of Elks is an American fnstitu- tlon. It is too broad to live in the stifling air of monarchies.” Following the address Prof. Bohumir Kryl of Innes' band gave as o cornet solo “The Holy City" and with the closing ceromanles of the order tho lodge of sorrow was closed. ALL CHRISTIANS IN ONBE CHURCH, Tendency of N 's Followers to Follow One Standard. “All of Christ's followers will be jotned n one church within the nmext cemtury if the varlous denominations continue to draw together as they have during the last twenty-five vears,” was the prophecy of Rev. Hubert C. Herring, v\ha preached yes- terday morning at the First Congrega- tional church on the probable unity of all Christian bodies. “But this union cannot be brought about immediately. Some men would have the churches join hands and reconclle thelr varying beliefs after they have been merged into one. This cannot be done. These men make a cause of what by necessity must be an efect. Church unton Wil be worked out only after the various sccts have come to respect each other's bellefs and aro willing to lay aside all but the fundamental truth upon which all churches are based. “Originally there was but one church, the church of Rome. Then came the split be- tween the eastern and western churches and the Greek church came Into existence. With the Reformation other denominations came into existence and from time to time discontented spirits have left old bodies _and established new churches until today we bave half a score of well known de- nominations and scores of less influential ones. The development of these sects has been the work of ages and cannot be un- done in a day, “The most {llustrious advoeate of church union is the pope, who frequently invites a1l churchmen to abandon other organiza- tons and accept the tenets of his, the only true church. And his idea of church union 15 no less out of the question than that of the leaders in other denominations. In all cases It 15 an invitation to desert false standards and joln & church which inter prets the scriptures In a faultless man- ner. “It 18 pleasant to thivk of a time when all of God's people will bo united this side of heaven, but I have no patience with the As the secretary, at the| discussed In There s such rivalry and strife between the churches that it 1s impossible to coneeive of harmonizing such & variety of tenets. Until members of different sects learn to disregard all but the essentials in religion church union can only result in disrup- tion. The barriers botween the different sects cannot be broken down with one stroke, but God Is throwing light Into the dark recesses of churches and In time all His worshipers will rise above denomina- tional barriers and make the union of all Christians possible. GROWTH OF CHRISTIAN CHURCH. Anniversary is Observed by View of Past and F At the First Christian church Sunday morning the pastor, Rev. Sumner T. Martin, delivered an annlversary sermon to which he gave the title, ““Gratitude for the Past— Courage for the Future.” The introductory remarks of the pastor dealt with the history of the church, which was organized in 1874 and has enjoyed a steady growth since. The results achlieved during the last year have been particularly gratitying, over 100 new members having been taken into the church, the attendance at the Sunday school having increased 50 per cent, the Endeavor soclety having doubled fts membership and the reg- ular contributors to the church finances having been almost trebled. | Mr. Martin spoke of the good influence | of the Christian church in the community, of its standing for the pure gospel without the addition of human creeds or human confessions of faith and of its effort to rostore a church patterned after that of the apostles. “This church,” sald he, “has taught the | bible to thousands through its pulpit and | its bible classes and has been the means | of turning other thousands to the Lord iu personal salvation. It has stood for tem- | perance and righteousness in the commu nity.” In reviewing the factors In the church's | lite and growth the pastor spoke highly | of the former pastors of the church and of the work they have done; of the falthful ness of the church officers and socleties and the unity, activity and liberality of the members, Of the future Mr. Martin sald: “The cubrch is determined to accomplish & work and realize ideals higher than any it has ever reached. To this end all are called to a sense ofwpersonal responsibility and loftier {deals of Christian life and service, to moro liberal giving for the support of the church at home and the preaching of the gospel abroad. 1 invite you to a church followshlp so warm and friendly that ft will charm all who come within the clrcle of its influence.” | PERSEVERANCE 3 UNTO THE BND. To Win the Crown of Life Men Manst Be Falthfal Until Death. The Passionist fathers, Angelo and Hilery, concluded a successful week's mis- slon work at St. Peter's church Sunday night, the final sermon being on the subject of “Perserverance” by Father Angelo, “It will well and taken many steps on our heaven- ward journey,” sald Father Angelo, “if we tail to persevere to the end. St. Augustine thereforo says: ‘It is of little moment to begin well. The important thing 18 to end ““Though you have faith more lively than Abraham's, chastity more excellent than Joseph's, meekness more admirable than Danfel's, patience more invincible than Job's, zeal more ardent than Paul's, peni- tence more sincere than Magdalene's, you cannot enter heaven without perseverance, for God says: ‘Be thou faithful until death and I will give thee the crown of Ite.’ MUST PROVE TITLE CLEAR Democratic Candidates for Legisla- ture Asked to Explain Alleged Irregular Practices. At 10 o'clock this morning, in room 106, Bee bullding, Frank J. Sutcliffe, notary public, will begin taking depositions in the contest proocedis Albert J. Coleson, Fred M. Youngs and Carsten Rohwer, republicans, seek to prove their election to the legislative seats for which John Liddell, Frank T. Ransom, Cary M. Hunt and Charles T. Johnson, fusionists, hold certificates. The first two petitioners ere for the semate and the latter two for | the house. It is understood that the contestants will consoldiate their interests, as the evidence In each iustance is sald to be practically identical Briefly summarized the allegations upon which these contests a based are that the fusion judges of election were gulity of traud to such extent that the contest- ants were deprived of a fair showing in the general returns. It is set forth that enough illegal votes were received by such judges to change the result of the election and that had the ballots been properly censored the contestants would have been elocted fairly. It is further a'leged that many legal ballots in favor of the contest- ants were rejected, thus adding to the show- ing of the contestee: The *‘endless chain' system is touched upon in tho dosuments filed by the contest- ants and it is alleged that if such unlaw- ful votes had not been received and counted for the contestees the contestants would have had 2 majority of the votes. The “end- less chain system is denounced as belng in E. W. Simeral and Wil are attorneys for the contest J. Platti, Ed P. S8mith and Will F. Gurley will appear for the contestees. The hear- ing will edjourn from day to day and will probably continue until the latter part of the month, December 29 being the limit upon which the taking of depositions must close. As is generally understood the ac- tion of the notary public is only per functory. The contestants made a study of their re- spective cases before they entered the proceedings and they are firm in the bellet | that they have just cause for contesting and on that bellef they base strong hope of vie- tory. A large array of witnesses has been summoned on behalf of either eide. — Less Than Half Rate TO Port Arthur, Houston and Galveston, Texas, on sale December 10th, only via O. &St. L. Ry.

The building for the library has not been selected yet, but a choice will be made in & short time and Miss Tobitt hopes to have the branch In operation by January 1, 1901 A good collection of books and periodicals will be placed in charge of an ai nt, who will maintain a reading room and fssue books exactly as is done at the central lbrary. “Few cities the size of Omaha maintain regular branch libraries, but Omaha is %o scattered that it seems necessary to extend ibrary privileges to persons who have no opportunity to visit the central fon," Miss Tobitt said in discussing the proposed branch. “The stations which we have es- tablished in school buildings show that many readers may be reached in that way who never visit the main library bullding. When readers will come to school buildings where books are exchanged only certain days In a week it stands to reason that rogular station where reading rooms are maintained and the accommodations are as good as at the central library. Record of One Hranch, “During November 837 books were bor- rowed from the station located in the Comenius school building, This record sur- passes that of any other station and has | persuaded us that the demand for books in | the south part of the city is great enough to warrant a branch. Adults were not al- |lowed to draw books from the Comenius | station and still the circulation was almost | twice as great as that at axy other school |1n the city. | “It will be a great disappointment it the branch should not succeed, because It fs largely in the nature of a trial and if it talls tho library extension movement will no doubt recelve a deathblow, while It it succeeds other stations will no doubt be es- tabllshed and remote parts of the city will be offered library facilities.” ' It 16 estimated that the branch can be maintained at an annual expense of $1,200 per year. This includes the salary of an attendant, rent, fuel, light, the transporta- tion of books and all other expenses. Bev- eral store bulldings are available for this branch and are large enough to afford ample |space for bookstacks and a commodtous reading room. The number of books circulated by the library during November was 19,618, which breaks the record for November, a month when the circulation ordinarily falls to a low ebb. The increase in circulation is due to the school stations. During November, 1899, the clrculation of books from the school bulldings amounted to 1,295, and this year it was 3,605. The Comenius station led the lst with a circulation of 837 and the circulation of the other achool stations was as follows: Castellar, 670; Windsor, 453; Pacific, 377; Vinton, 208; Clifton Hill, 178; Monmouth Park, 84; Bancrift, 40; Central Park, 412; Beal, 357, Privileges for Adults, At the Central Park and Beal schools adults are allowed to draw books and em- ployes of the library visit these stations regularly. Nearly all the borrowers at these stations are persons who have not | heretotore avalled themselves of library privileges. Statlons for the use of school children only will be opened {n a short time at Sherman and Forest schools. The library spends so much annually for binding that the board has decided to es- tablish a bindery. Machinery for the plant has been ordered and will in the basement of the library buflding. It 1s estimated that the expense of putting the bindery Into operation will be about $600. The annual expenditure for binding varies from $1,600 to $1,700 and it s eati- mated that the work can be dome at less cost. This expenditure is not the only thing which prompted the directors to establish the plant, however. In many cases work has been delayed in the binderies, and with the new arrangement all delay will be done away with. A practical binder and woman assistant will be employed and union wages will be pald. AMUSEMENTS. - Inues’ Closing Concerts— The two Innes performances Sunday were a testimonial to that genlal conductor of his hold upon the good will of the city. The great Collseum, which engulfs its hundreds with little effect upon the in- terlor void, bore a well-filled appearance. Although the programs were not framed with any view to the day's significance, there were nevertheless many religious classics Interspersed as artistic mission- arles. The numbers which received the most hearty evidence of approval were the cornet solo by Kryl in the afternoon and the vocal offering of Mme. Noldl in the evening. The soprano singer's rendering of “Last Rose of Summer” was a glori- fication of that sweet and simple ballad. The Interior of the Coliseum rivaled th pomp and show of Ak-Sar-Ben festivitie but the ineficlency of the building for its purpose was only too plainly evident. With a draught assalling him from the rear and the words of the soloist coming to him but faintly in the great angular space the average citizen read a potent object lesson on the need of an auditorium. The attendance at the four performances were a sufficient assurance to Mr. Innes to make certain another and more speedy coming for, although the vacant seats pre- dominated at the Baturday matin the following performances more than made Smallpox Vaccine 11 Smallpox Vaccine in slender glass tubes (glycerinated) and on ivory points.

The conductor fecls that once agalnp established a hearty friendship with the people of Omaha and hopes to be present as the opening attruc- tion at the opening of the auditorium The band is on its way east, Nebraska having been the objective point, and will probably double the 7,000 miles traveled so far this season before it reaches New York In April the musiclans will play at the opening of the exposition in Scotland, re turning for the summer season at its own auditorium at Atlantie City. In these columns enough has been sald about Innes and his men to show that their work is heartily endorsed as being such as leaves a good taste on one's musical palate Inves 18 uncompromising in regard to his standard of concert music and his concerts here have been of positive educational val It was noticeable that audiences of artistlo and intelligently interested listen- ors greeted the band and were not appar ently disappointed by not hearing the music which appeals to vitiated or unformed tastes, At the afternoon concert Miss Frances Boyden was in splendid volce. Her sim- plicity and sincerity of manner are as attractive as her emotional features and her fresh and beautitul volce. Her tones are polsed with the most satisfying dellcacy of accuracy. Her upper quality Is ideal and the tone production throughout is convine- ing and not spectacular; artistic, full of color and not lacking in Intensity. Signor Albertl pleased the people as usual and was iIn good volce. Why does he not sing “‘The Pulme” in English? Imnagine hearing ‘‘Ben Bolt" in French, or the long-meter doxology in Russian! Albert! can aing English and can do it well and “The Palms” is a solo of household fllarity. A propos of singing In English, the tenor, Signor Zarni, made a decided hit by singing for an encore ‘‘Becauso.” It was a novel idea. The bal- lad 18 a catchy one and his enunciation was understood. The Liszt polonaise by the band was a greut achlevement, thrilllng in its devel- opment and in its thunderous crescendos and sforsandos and played as by.'‘those having authority.” Here the perfection of the band's ensemble s conclusively set forth. The brass section of the lunes forces strikes one as ponderous rather than flar- Ing; a desirable offect and one seldom noticed in other bands. The “Prince Charming” march is a re- Incarnation of “Love is King," the march that made a hit at the Transmissippl expo- sition. Kryl, the cornetist, is a wonder in reality. He produces a good tone in four distinct “registers,” if one may borrow the term from the vocal side of the art, An interesting feature of the concerts was the omnipresent and apparently omni- scient young gentleman who arranged the “number” cards according to the place on | the programs of the various pleces. He re- Joices in the euphonious name of Master Lawrence McCloskey and he does his work with the consclentiousness of one who knows his duty. Orphenm— The Orpheum bill this woeek has a good deal to offer in the way of varlety and not a little in the respect of excellence. Sketches more diverse would be diffcult to arrange. In the matter of Interest nome of them falls to the level of commonplace and several have merit to take the dig- nity of drawing-cards on a list less attract- ve. The “headline” is Miss Lizzie B. Ray- mond, a chubby sort of a person with a penchant for pretty Spanish color effects in her makeup and a certain timbre of volce that charms the entire house. Play- goers have heard her on the circult before. They will wish to hear her again, or at least they will wigh to hear ono alr, “I Can’t Tell Why I Love You,” as Miss Ray- mond sings this, not a modern lay, In a mannor delightfully her own. W. C. Fields, who comes early on the list, 18 a juggler—not one of the Japanese fan, china plate, sword yariety, but a necroman- cer with nimble fingers, deft movements and o fascinating knack of doing unheard-of “stunts’’ with cigar boxes, tennis balls and a lighted match. Al Shean and Charles L. ‘Warren take the parts of Viniclus and Ursus in a truly laughable travesty on “Quo Vadis. Shean and Warren have the art of bur- lesquing at the tongue and the fingers' end. There are two scenes, the first belng only incidental to the one rucceeding, the arens of the Roman collseum. John West, In muslical speclalties, has a new instrument or two and a way of playing old alrs with new charm. The La Mothes have been seen before in their aerlal gym- nastlo feats. They have added several nov- eltles to their repertoire. The concluding sketch 18 Streator's Zouaves, a company of sixteen men whose evolutions and drill movements are as nearly perfection as can be. The scaling of a twenty-foot wall by the entire company without the use of nny implement excepting thelr guns is one of the bright features of the entertainment. “Quo Vadis” at the Boyd— The presentation of & very praiseworthy dramatization by Stanislaus Stange of Slenklewlicz's great novel, “Quo Vadis," with the accompaniment of scenery fairly adequate to the possibilities and demands, will occupy the stage at Boyd's theater up 0 and including Wednesday night. The ability of the several performers is equal to a reading of their lines as one might safely judge they are printed. A large au- dionco greeted the performance last night, | the story knowledge with the people evidently familiar | and willing to impart borne of that intimacy. Trocadero— | The Dainty Paree Burlesquers, having been brought from Minneapolls on a spe- lelal train, arrived at the Trocadero just in time Sunday afternoon to exchange their costumes for the stage makeup. It was close work, but the curtaln was rung up before the audience became impatient and there wus no cvidence that costumes had been drawn on hurriedly or grease paint applied with less than the usual care. The house was crowded to the doors and many, unable to secure seats, stood up in the foyer. The foyer, by the way, has been paved with a new floor since Satur- dey, the old one having worn entirely through in places. The Burlesquers are a strong company, presenting a rollicking vaudeville without a dull line in it. The entertalnment opens with & sketch, “A Fairie Farm,” which is constructed with cvough spice and ginger to suit all and was “built at odd moments for laughing purposes.”” This is followed by various specialists in comic turns. The person who disturbed the congrega- tlon last Bunday by coughing is requested to call on Dillen’s drug store, South Omaha, or Myers-Dillon Drug Co., Omaha, and get a bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar.
