PRAYER SOFTENS COLLISION Aged Woman Uplifts Her Veics to Heaven in Hour of Peril, KNEELS UPON SHARP CINDER ROADBED Asks the Lord to Prevent lmpending Catastrophe—~Unusual Scene on the Burlington Route Near Thayer, lowa, Au aged woman, with uplifted hands and voice and knees bent unfiinchingly against the soarp gravel of the roadbed provided a5 unusual feature of the collision thet oc- curred on the Burlington road west of s e carly Saturday night. The engine pulling westbound passenger train No. 15 blew out a cylinder head between stations and a freight train was trailing. The passcngers learned of the circum- | stances and many left the cars, the mon | going forward to help the engineer swear | 404 the women assembling at the side of | the track to say some milder things. A flagman was hurried back to hait the | freight, but amoug the women was one of [ Englieh birth who had long been a mission worker and who had considerably less faith | in red eignals than in the efficacy of prager Without separating herself from the group or attempting other privacy she promptly knelt and prayed, audibly and fervently that the catastrophe might be averted or at least no lives lost Damage is Slight. ia., The llagman, meantime, had not covered sufficient distance to give the engineer of the freight us early a warning as he re- quired and airbrakes and reversed drivers together could not bring the string of heavy cars to a full stop before the rear car of the passenger train reached. 'The con- sequence was a collision, but only & slight one that injured no one seriously and ex- | pended its damaging force on the rear pas- | senger coach The woman of faith wi even small favors, however, and did not neglect to kneel again, as soon as she learned that no lives were lost, and offer up thanks, followed by hosannas sung with the truc fervor of devout rejoicing. Later she remarked to those about her that she was 67 years old and had never yet appealed to her Lord in vain. She wouldn't even divide credit with the flagman for the preservation | of the endangered lives. The passenger train, due in Omaha at | 10:20 p. m., got under way again in abo three hours, arriving here at 1:15 a. m. COLORED FOLKS’ PICNIC | Wallflowers Fail to Thrive at Ruser's Park, Other Blooms Are Gloriou: duly gratéful for There were no wallflowers at the colored | folks' pienic in Ruser's park Sunday. The volatile spirits, the swing and ripple of the ragtime music and the shouts of m*)‘fi-‘ ment presented a form of infection against which no one was immune. Everyone. in | his own little firmament, was a star. No case of the blues could hold out against such u conspiracy of Bacchus, Euterpe and Terpsichore, and when the straing of the last waltz died away the picnickers were | unanimous in voting the day a success. The oceasion was an outing glven by the Pleasure Seekers' club of Omaha to a train- load of excursionists from Kansas City snd Baola, Kan, A trajp of nine coaches ar- rived from the city by the Kaw's mouth shortly before 10 Sunday morning. There were 460 persons on board, with Nels Crews, colored orator, at thelr head, and this namber included the members of the Met- | ropolitan band. Beveral colored organiza- tions of Omaha were at the station to meet | the visitors. After the train had discharged its passengers a procession was formed, led by the band and such well known local | fieures as Ole Jackson and Vie Walker on horseback. | The trip out to the park was in itself well | worth the taking. The first incident of note | occurred at the point where the street cars | drop the crowds and the carryalls pick | them up. Here was waged all day a spirited rivairy among the drivers of the wagons. The business was launched at firat In the | form of a trust, all of the drivers charging | 25 cents a head for transportation betwéen | Hanscom park and the picnic grounds, a distance of three miles. Then one of them, in his haste to get a load, cut the price to 15 cents, and thenceforth the rates were demoralized. They dropped from 15 cents 10 10 cents, thence to 5 cents, and for an . ] beer is the beer of civiliza- tion. Go to any part of the earth where mankind values purity, and you will find Schlitz beer is the recognized pure beer. For fifty yéars the Schlitz agencies have foilowed white men’s conquests. They are twenty years old in South Africa. Schlitz beer was famous in Siberia before a railroad was thought of. When Japan and China first began to awake, Schlitz beer was advertised in their newspapers. Almost as soon as Dewey captured Manila 216 car- loads of Schlitz were sent there. Today Schlitz agencies so dot the globe that when it js midnight at one it is noon- day at another, The quality by which Schlitz beer has won distinc- tion has been its absolute purity.

The shirt walst has after many days been officially countepanced in Omaha trade and It is no longer a joke and the finger of scorn has pointed by to other things. Omaha is well to the front im its adoption, as the New York papers even yet #peculate as to when the garment will be 100ked upon seriously. The mail carriers of Omaha are the first to glve commercial sanction to the walst and but for a slight oversolicitude on their part might have been the absolute pioneers In the movement. Their waists arrived as contracted for from St. Louls, spick and span. in color a delicate cerulean biue. Wives and sisters, however, regarded the tint with.a suspicious eye. It was gener- ally decided that the waists should be subjected to a salt water soak before being exposed to the sun and rain. And in the meantime the High school senlors cabtured the honor of the wa offcial inauguration. As Saturday night, set apart for the alumni social, approached the sénior men, seventy-five strong, went Into executive session. There were eigh- teen dances on the program, with encore: to every number, and as many extras as a good-natured orchestral leader could be in duced to insert. I can beat ten feet in the pole vault.” said a lanky senior, “but if 1 %o through those dances in & dress sult it will be my earthly end." Thus it came about that the shirt waist | was formally presented to Omaha soclety. The seniors appeared in a refined hayfield costume and if they missed a dance it was because they were strolling on the lawn in ®00d company. It Is the young who set the pace and the shirt waist may now be worn by any man; it is in the mode. CONGRESSMAN NEVILLE TALKS North tte Stateaman Says Fusion- ista $hould Keep Out of Gubh 1 Situation. Congressman William Neville of North Platte is in Omaha, having come down to nd the obsequies of the late Mrs. Joseph ville, which occurred Sunday. He does not seem to think that there is likely to be any nomination for governor by the fu- sloniste this fall in response to the sug- gestion that there is a vacancy in the ex- ecutive office because of the retirement of Senator Dietrich. “If I were to give my opinfon on the subject,” sald Congressman Neville, *I shouid say there will be no nomination. Yes, I see that Yeiser has rendered his opinion to the effect that there will be, I do not belong to the class that is looking for trouble and as long as the law says so plainly that in case of the death or dis- ability or resignation of the governor, the leutenant governor shall perform the du- ties to the end of the term and enjoy the emoluments of the office, I don't see that it makes any difference what you may ‘t‘lll him, he is going to be governor until the term expires. 1 don't sse that there is any excuse in the law for any attempt to rominate any other governor until the end of the term for which Senator Diet- rich was elected, for the lieutenant governor will be governor until that time."

The third evening service at the reor- ganized Southwest Presbyterian church, at Twentieth and Leavenworth streets, oc- curred last evening with the pastor,- Rev. Walter N. Halsey, in the pulpit. The first regular service in the church since its dissolution several years ago was held Sunday evening two weeks ago with an attendance of 328. The reorganization has taken place under the auspices of the First Presbyterian church which has con- ducted a Sunday school there with Dr. W. O. Henry as superintendent. Between $500 and 3600 has been spent in repairs recently and the result is a cool and pleasant church edifice. At present the church apparently has a brighter future before it than at any time since its inception in 1884, when Rev Thomas Hall was the first pastor. The First Presbyterian church has guaranteed the pastor’s salary and the church members will be called upon to contribute the other expenses of maintenance. There will be no morning services for a few wwel Yester- day sixteen young people pledged them- selves as members of the Christian En- deavor soclety. The subject for the sermon yesterday evening was “The Reward of Righteous- nel and the text was found in Danlel xil: 3:They that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament and they that turn many to righteousness, as the ars forever and ever." Pulpit Thoughts | Doetrines of Divine Love. Rev. Merton Smith, evangelist, occupied the pulpit of the Firet Presbyterian church yesterday morning and preached the doc- trine of divine lov: “To know God is eterpal life, and he that loveth not, know- eth not God™ was his thought “The lave of God is better than the best of human lov The human heart loves that it may acquire and the divine heart loves that it may give and bestow. You may know of God, you may know all about Him that is contained in the goepel, but you cannot know Him until you have taken him into your heart and lived with Him." At the conclusion of the sermon Herman Bellstedt played “The Holy City” on the corpet, with organ accompaniment by Mrs. Howard Kennedy. val of the Soul. Rev. R. M. Stevenson, pastor of the Sec- ond Presbyterian church, preached Sunday morning from the theme, ““The Value of the Human Soul."” “Do we fully comprehend the signifi- cance,”” he asked, “of that great gathering of missionaries in Carnegie hall, New York, & few weeks ago’ There were mission- aries from all parts of the world, and the public was 80 interested in the convention that 80,000 tickets of admission wera issued That great ball taxed to its capacity. At the same time there was an overflow meeting In Calvary Baptist church across the street, and another in the First Presby- terian church on a neighboring corner. What was the significance of all this, in this material age, in the great commerclal mart of the world® It was significant of the importance that is placed upon the human woul “Just at present there is a somewhat sim- ilar demonstration right here in Omaha There is (0 be a series of gospel meetings in & big tent tbat is to move about from one part of the city to another. This shows the value this community places upon the buman soul. We have learned that if the non-church-going people wom't come to us we must go to them.” Rev. Tindall's Travels. At Trinity Methodist church last night Rev. D. K. Tindall, pastor, spoke on his trip from Jerusalem to Jericho. journey,” he said, “will be miles first southeast and then northeas and though Jericho is north of Jerusalem, yet to reach It we must make a descent of slmost 3,000 feet. Hence, it is said, a certaln man went dows to Jericho. Jeru- salem is on the crest of a mountain; Jericho in the Jordan valley. The road we are to travel is of great Interest, for it s the one Jesus traveled on his way to Jerusalem just before his crucifixion, We cross the Kedron to the western slope of the Mount of Olives and pass along the Garden of Gethsemane, which is beautifully kept by a Franciscan monk in homor of the awful night Jesus spent there. The same old olive tree under whose bows Jesus knelt and prayed and sweat, as It were, great drops of blood, is still pointed out to the traveler; and since the olive tree lives to 80 great an age it is possible this may be the one, though not likely. He passed through the little interesting village of Bethany, where Jesus loved to stop with Lazarus and Mary and Martha, saw the re- puted cave of Lazarus, where for four days his body lay entombed and where Jesus called it to life One has strange feelings as he stands where resurrective power has been exer- cised. In this same little town Jesus was given a reception in the home of Simon, the leper, perhaps because He had cleansed Simon of leprosy or possibly because He had raised Lazarus, and for some reason it was thought best to hold the reception in Simon's Loile. Lazarus and his sisters were there. Jesus had few homes and re- ceptions in His Incarnate days, but has many of them now, both on earth and in heaven, in bomes and in hearts. Bethany is now occupled by beggars and thieves, as 1 know from euperience. We ate our luncheon at noon ou this journey in the shadow of the walls of the old inn where the good Samaritan took care of the ounded Jew, and we talked of the great- est of all good Samaritans, who died to care for a world of wounded hearts and lives. We passed the very spot where lit- tle Zacheus climbed the sycamore tree to see Jesur and we rejoiced to think that about balf the people of this world are trying to catch a glimpse of our Savior. The large mound which marks the resting place of Adam's dust and that of his fam- ily, as well as the awful consequences of the sin of covetousness, is mear our road as was the spot where blind Bartimeus sat by the wayside begging, and Jesus opened His ey “This same greai physiclan is ready to open the sin-blind eyes of the whole world.

Stick Close to Nature, “Thou shalt not seethe a kid in its mother's milk,” Deut, xiv, 21. This was the | text by Rev. Thomas Anderson yesterday | morning in Calvary Baptist church. The Teference was to a custom of the ancients who were wont to boil a kid in the milk of its parent and use the resulting broth as a fertilizer for their felds. Rev. Anderson interpreted the text as an injunction against all unnaturalism He said: “All outrages against nature in any way, the perversion of feelings or senti- ments, were far-reaching in their injurious effects, as they were certaln to leave a mark on character and soul.

The heat proposition is where Krug park bas its inning, for it is one of the coolest places to be found anywhers in this coun- try. There blows a refreshing breeze even when the air is seemingly at a standstill elsewhere. Children are lighted with the park, for they find a ittle of everything that s entertaining—the monkeys, the merry-go-round, the swings and the dog and pony circus Bowlers were out in large delegations and found the weather cool enough to permit some very lively work. Omaha women are paying much attention to the park alleys aud some creditable scores were made yes- terday. Boy Rum Over a Hack.
