TIH' OM \"\ D\ RIDNAPING A PULPIT TOPIC Rev. fargent Takes Oudaby Case as a Theme, Othe T Ame. and ieh Ma in the St church at congregation attended Congregational the morning service to hear Rev. C. 8. Sar- gent's sermon on “Kidnaping.” Rev. Mr. Bargent took his text from Acts i, 24: “They watched at the gate at night to kill him. Among other things Rev. Mr. Sargent sald At the dawn of the twentieth century the world, or the United States at least, has been startled by the kidnaping of a boy; ot a baby or a little girl, but a boy enter- ing into manlc The whole country has been aroused at the bold detalls of the ab- duction The police have scoured every part of the without finding a trace worth following. Numerous detectives have sot themselves to the task of solving the mystery of the kidnay fdentity, but in wpite of their efforts the mystery still re- mains. “1 have A large Mary's Avenue that for four weeks off young Cudahy the hill where he hour of the day and been told the men who carried watched the house on lived at almost every night. “These men watched the the children and the servants patiently, termined to have the child of the rich man In this story there is a thought for all of us. At the beginning of the twentieth century 1t 48 worth while to consider what is the question of the hour. I might mention the growth of the church or the expansion of territory, telling how the limits of the na- tlon arc the two oceans, the Atlantic and the Pacific. Or I might speak of the ad- vance of education, calling attention how in the beginning there were only ten colleges where now there are more than 500; how the system of education been bullt up until now every child in the land has the benefits of school To Escape Danger ““There are many other points in the prog- ress of the world that might be touched on, but this 18 not the sermon that I have chosen ‘for you. Today let us look at the dangers that surround us and then consider what are the opportunities of escape from those dangers. In the first place, there is the great evil of the rum shop. Every year 100,000 drunkards totter with bleary eye and infirm step to their destruction, and overy year 100,000 boys from your home and mine go to take new places in the depleted ranks. “There is another temptation. This is the age of wealth. Men belleve in a gospel of fun. Many of us are engrossed in soci- ety. Christ came to found soclety, but we should never make soclal pleasures our whole alm. A further temptation is one ot the swérd. Even while the whisperings of The Hague peace conference were in the air there followed war and war. To our young men courage and patriotism came and sald: ‘You must be soldiers.’ One among the results Is told in the words of a cele- brated general who sald in reference to the conduct of the soldlers in China, that China will require an hundred years to forget the deeds of our army. ““Today the old religions are appealing as never before, and Christ is leading the army of Christians, able to protect our boys and our fireside movements of is EVERY MAN DESTOR TO THE WOR blic Duty by |Il\\. Paul's words, “I am debtor to the Greeks and barbarians, both to the wise and un- wige,” were the theme of Rev. Edward Hart Jenks' sermon at_the First Presby- terfan church yesterday morning, “This sentence Is the keynoté of Chris- tlan life, and when all other notes harmon- 1ze with it there is strength and power and usefulness. It admits the debt which man owes to man,” sald the preacher. “All of us are debtors and if we recognize our ob- ligations we cannot remain inactive, but must in & measure give the world what we owe it. “Men view life in different ways. There are persons who maintain that the world owes them a living. The robberles and crimes with which the papers are filled tell of the deeds of men of this stripe. Bvery day we pass men on the streets whose eyes are not glassy, but whose souls are dead— men who are no better than brutes and are distingulshed from them only in their ap- pearance. “It 3 unfortunate that a person endowed with reason and fitted for a life of useftl- ness should prey on weaker persons after the manner of the animal kingdom, in which the strongest brute Is master. It is pitiful to seo men wrest vrizes from their fellow men and trample them under foot. God did not Intend that belngs made in His own image should despise each other and put into practice the theory of the survival of the fittest. “Christians have frequently said that no opportunity has been afforded them to puy thelr debts to mankind. It Is, indeed, strange man who cannot find opportunities to do good In this world. Every day there are chances to be of benefit to persons who need assistance of some sort. We should all of us admit our debt to the world, as Paul did, and offer our lives to God's serv- ice. Ho recelved no more from mankind than cach of us has received. He read the poems of the Greeks and profited by the works of great masters, We are enjoying the rich heritage glven to us by Shakespeare, Mil- ton, Dante and Bunyan, and should make some effort to ropay the world for the bless- ings which we enjoy."” URGENT SALVATION, Rev, uches Briefly on Cud- Hube Herring spoke of the of the world's salvation In his Sunday morning sermon at the First Con- gregational church. His text was He- brews vii, 25: “Wherefore he Is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, secing He ever liveth to make Intercession for them." “Among the many things that impress my mind in the opening of this new cen- tury,” he sald, “Is that the time is most opportune for a survey of all fundamental truths. The wholo enlightened world ap- prectates that Christ was the spotless char- acter; it 'is convinoed that His was the supreme example and that He was the supreme teacher of morals, He was, we readily admit, the greatest spiritual force in the world. Yet these are all incidental to one great thing—the saving power of Jesus Christ. “The world needs to be saved,” declared Dr. Herring, and then he cited some of the examples of the world's civilization which stand most In need of the saving power of Jesus Christ. Among these he mentioned th€ drunkard, the gambler, the harlot, the man or woman whose sphere is confined to the narrow limits of pleas- ure. In this connection he spoke of the kidnaper. “Here is a man,” he sald, “who has de- sconded to the dastardly level of kidnap- ing in opder to force the payment of a roward, We are all indignant at the case which has presented Itself so vividly to us, but we are mot as indignant as we oughit ‘to be. I am esceedingly glud that Rev. de- | a movement has been made which recog- nizes this outrage as one against the com- munity and not against one man alone. I care not from whence the authority springs for the commonwealth to rise up in its Indignation and take a hand In the search for these criminals. It is the only right and proper thing to do.” He spoke of the business and professional men who are selfishly engaged in secking only their pleasure and comfort, and the man whose sordid greed for wealth elimi- nates all things else as standing in need of the saving power of Jesus Christ. “Into the presence of uneasy, helpless humanity he continued, “comes a mighty figure which fills the horizon of the past and illumina the path of the future.

HIRST, Dineo _en 1 il B Arighes “Would you reform tho world? Would you empty the jalls of their wrong-doer and the prisons of their felons? There is a way. A law passed by the legislature compelling every man and every woman in the land to turn the soul's eye on his inner selt an hour each day will do it Self-scrutiny and sin cannot exist to- gether.” Rev. A. C. Hirst held spelibound a throng of young men which filled the drawing rooms of the Young Men's Chris. tlan association and overflowed into the halls Sunday afternoon when he addressed them on “The Way to Build Aright.” His words were like the hammer blows which he urged young men to use in build ing the framework of true character. They were uttered with the rapidity of sho from a gatling gun and the Impression produced was as lasting as the adamantine foundations which they described. Here are some of the paraphrases he uttered Many of humanity's wrecks are the re sult of companionship. There are some men who make one as fretful as a por cupine. Some men I want to canonize some 1 want to cannonade.” “In temptation there is no sin. lies in the yielding.

He 18 a speaker whose tones are resonant and whose manner magnotism and force make impressive. Dr. Hirst employs in his dic tlon metaphors that young men best under- stand and his gestures are of the simplo kind that are more for punctuation than tor embellishment. In the way of preface he said that text could be found early in Matthew, number of the chapter being omitted the hope that those who heard him would bo interested enough to read in until the chapter was found. The words were: “Seck ye first the kingdom of God his his he and His righteousness, and all things shall | follow.” Excerpts from his remarks were “I believe that this is the young man's age of the world. I remember once standing in the crypt of Paul's ca- thedral in London and reading on one of the walls the inscription in memoriam ot the bullder: ‘If you want to see his monu- ment, look around you' I remember of climbing to the dome of the cathedral and looking down into the streets below, where the men walking about appeared to be tho veriest pigmies; such was the grandeur of the structure one man has built. Young men, we are all builders, you and I, and it is of the greatest possible moment that we bufld aright Not long ago In Chicago the old post- office was torn down because there was a flaw in the foundation. I have watched the laborers at work on the foundation of the new building, now in the course of construction, and have noted the care that is being taken with ali that has to do with the foundation. There is reason for ft all, because o def.ct in the foundation is sure to reproduce itself in the tower. “Ye are builders of character, huilders of family and builders of power and ine fluence, and I exhort you to find the secret of becoming a master builder. How can I do it, you ask? Turn to that chapter of Matthew and read: ‘Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all things will fol- low." That's how to do 1t.” DISCUSSES DUTY OF CHRIS LB Allen, Jr, Polnts the Way to n Hetter Future, Rev. C. B. Allen, jr., pastor of the First Baptist church, preached Sunday morning on “The Hour, and the Duty of the Hour." He passed in brief review the century Just closed, noting some of the advantages it had wrought to the human race, and then said “In our land the forelgn mission enter- prise was launched in 1810, and now mis- slon stations gird the globe. There are 5,000 stations, 13.000 out-stations, 12,000 missionaries, 61,000 native helpers and about 2,000,000 converts from heathenism. The British and oreign Bible soclety, or- ganized in 1804, has printed and distributed ,000,000 coples of the scriptures. The American Bible soclety, organized later, has sent out 61,000,000 coples. “Scorcs of charitable institutions and so- cleties, Inspired by the influence of the Christian religion, have sprung into ex- istence during the nineteenth century. Lon- don's charitable societies spend $5,000,000 annually and New York's $4,000,000, and the last years of the century show & mar- velous growth of interdenominational comity which will speedily end all merely sectarian controversy and save a waste of temper, time and money ‘But something other than blessings have come to us from the past. The last years of the nineteenth century witdessed a growing desecration of God's holy day. A very deluge of godless newspapers and flimsy romances eat out the heart of rev- erence for God's commands. “A very painful fact, too, is a wide- spread neglect of faithful religious instruc- tion and training in the home life. This may in part account for the slow growth which the church has attained daring the last half dozen years, for whenever and wherever there Is a dearth of religious life in the family there is a correspond- ing lack of spirituality in the life of the church. “But why dwell upon either the benefits or the disadvantages which have come down to us? A simple, practical question concerns us: What is the duty confronting church the present hour? “Flrst—To put new and stronger em- phasis upon the great and fundamental truths,of God's word? “Second—There 18 need of a deepened sense of personal responsibility for per- sonal work for the salvation of men from sin. Comparatively few disciples have any sense of personal obligation in this matter. The average Christian has uo higher con- ception of Christ's meaning in his salva- tion than simply saving him from sin, and initiating him into the rewards of heavep. 1t never dawns upon him that Christ means to live in him, think in him and through him reach down to save others from the ANS, Rev. awful hell into which their sins have plunged them. “There is & widespread expectancy in the hearts of people that God is coming in power inte the midst of His people.

Kelly's S d Mus feature of the service at the First ist church Sunday morning was the presentation of the new choral communion service by Thomas Kelly, organist and choirmaster. Mr. Kelly is widely knowa as a musiclan, and as musical critic of The Bee has established a reputation as a fearless and honest writer. however, impelled many to attend the service yesterday to hear him In the role of a composer of high-class ecclesiastic music and that they were not disappointed was proved by the comments of the con- gregation as it passed out of the edifice, His choir, which probably has no equal in Omaha for quality of tone, phrasing and style, seemed fo feel the inspiration of the occasion and its singing was en- tirely en rapport with the sentiment of the composer, who directed the music from his place on the organ bench. The choral communion service s a de- parture from the beaten paths of the Methodist church and Rev. Dr. Hirst, pas- tor of the church, expressed himself as highly pleased with the plan, as well as the music. MISSIONARY WORK AT HOME Makes n Southern Str At First Christian church Sunday noon Miss Lura V. Thompson of Illinols, national organizer of the Christian man’s Board of Missions, addressed the members of the society on the work of the organization. Miss Thompson comes to Nebraska on invitation of the officers of the state b In her address she called attention to the cfforts of the organiza- tion to establish a chair of bible study In every town having a state educational institution, especially at state university seats. “This work,” sald the speaker, “has received the indorsement of every minister who understands it, regardless of eect, and is looked upon by many as the solution of the question of the religious training of the students in institutions where the study of religious questions is omitted from the curriculum. Referring to the home missionary field she sald that it was hard to understand why some per would feel a deep in- terest in the spread of the gospel In Africa, China and India and be 5o unmindful to any effort to carry the news of salvation to the negroes of the south. In speaking of the south she referred to a community in Mississippl, in which state she has been working for several months. This com- munity could not agree upon one of two candidates for the vacant pulpit, so they decided to hire both, one preaching the first Sunday in the odd-numbered months and the other preaching the first Sunday in those having even numbers, after- Thank Offiering of the Women, “The Chrjstian Woman's Board of Mis- slon’s work,” said the speaker, “is the thankoffering of the women of the church, I find that it is just as much missionary work to stir up the sluggards in the church as it 18 to cause a soul to seck salvation, for while the former is attached to the temporal organization his lack of work shows that his faith is dead, and so his soul is lost. Jesus was the first missionar, and while talking to you here I feel that I am carrying out the work which He would have performed were He here. “In regard to the work of the board the speaker sald that all funds raised by the women were divided equally between the home and foreign missionary boards of the church for the propagation of the faith in all lands; that the members of the soclety belleved that the race problom in the south could only be settled through the avenue Jf the church, as both whites and blacks could be united upon no other plane.” w to Care Croup.

The sudden death of Bishop Ninde last week will have considerable effect upon the movements of the other members of the Methodist house of bishops, and incident- ally upon the afiairs of tho First Methodist church of Omaha. At the time Bishop McCabe was In Omaha last fall, shortly after his assign- ment to this city as a place of residence he was appointed on a committee, the |other members of which were Presiding Elder Jennings aud the pastor, whose pur- pose it was to make arrangements for the payment of the debt on the church, which for several years has been a source of trouble to the members and the pastor. It was the intention of the committee to begin active work for the payment of the deot and it was hoped that arrangements | would be made to materfally reduce it by the first of next year and to provide for the payment of the interest on the re- mainder. | Bishop McCabe leaves for South Amer- ica Tuesday morning and will remain there until April, when he must como to the United States to be present at the semi- annual convocation of bishops which will be held that month. At that conmvocation the work of Bishop Ninde will be divided among the other bishops and as a result the time of Bishop McCabe will probably be so occupied that he will ot have the opportunity to do the work he expected to do for the First church of Omaha. The reassignment of the work of the bishops will also result in the absence of Bishop McCabe from the city of kis official residence for a greater length of time than has been anticipated. The sur- viving members of the house of bighops will have to care for the work of the de- consed member until the quadrennial meet- {Ying of the“general conference, which will choose the successor of Bishop Ninde, as there is no way in which the bishops can call persons to their assistance. 11 Increase club easily | ness easily organize among the the club a building company Six hun be sold J.
