Dundee. “Jnion Pacific Oar Builders Decide to Besume Their Work, MACHINISTS AND OTHERS REMAIN FIRM Priginal Strikers Assert that Re: of the Car Men Will in No Way Affect Thelir Stand Agninst Company. The Union Paclfic car bullders’ strike is over. The car builders decided yesterday, at & meeting in Labor temple, to give up the fight and return to work Tuesday morning. They would return this morning it this was not Labor day. This action was predicted Saturday, when twenty or twenty-five of the car men went back to work in the shops. From that time it was a foregone conclusion that the car bullders would surrender and re- turn to their places In the shops. *“We have disbanded our unlon, official of the erstwhile car men union yesterday after the meeting. “‘We are sorry we ever atruck now, but we bave done what seemed best to us. As a matter of fact, it would have been folly, utter folly, for us to have held out and tried to cope with the disadvantages against us; they were too great. We had no resources and we had no organization, since the little union we formed here @mong ourselves was not Tecognized and supported by the National Brotherhood of Rallway Car Men. We applied for admis- slon into the national body and failed to get it. We did not ecare to go back into the Car Bullders' association, whence we had come; to have done so would have been to have divided our number, for many, the majority, in fact, were not In favor of going into that orgarization. 8o there you are. What was left for us to do but disband our organization and take our po- sitions back while we could get them? ‘We are just as much opposed to accepting plecework as we were at first, but what can we do? Where we made our error was in striking in the firet place, but we didn’t know then what we do now. Car Bullders Are Independent. The 185 car bullders who struck and who will return to work are not closely allied in thelr crafts to the motive power shopmen who are on a strike, and it 1s gen- erally admitted that their surrender will have no effect whatever upon the strike of the other men. The machini: boller makers and blacksmiths were opposed to the strike of the car men in the first place and do not feel particularly disconcerted over their action in returning to work. Some individuals, however, look upon the course of the car men as unfavorable to the cause of the strikers, more in moral than material ‘effect. No mew developments have arisen in the motive power shopmen’s strike or in the builders’ who were at work on the new shops. Some vital change may occur in the latter Wednesday morning. The Bulld- ing Tiades councll and 7 union, s arately, interested in the bullders’ strike, will hold meetings Tuesday night in Labor temple, when this trouble will be thoroughly reviewed and definite and final plans shaped it possible. Nineteen nonunion men are reported to have arrived at the Unlon Pacific shops yes- terday from the east and seven of them deserted. District Secretary Grace of the machi- nists says ho is still financial ald from outside source of $100 was received yesterday from ma- chinists at Pocatello, Idaho, who wrote that they were endeavoring to arrange to send $6 & month for pvery member of their lodge untll the strike here was over. HUNTING SEASON OPENS TODAY (Ontekens and Grouse, However, Wil Be. Protected Until October First, said an local The season within which it is lawful to Xill ducks and other water fowl in ti state of Nebraska opens this morning and until spring it will be lawful to hunt on the lakes of the state. For a month or more the hunters have been investigating the condition of game st the usual resorts, and report that the early shooting will be good. A large num- ber of ducks which usually make their’ summer home in more northern waters settled last spring on the lakes of northern Nebraska, and there is a large hatch of the ducks which ordinarily spend the sum- mer in those waters, so that there will be much more than the usual amount of game early in the season. Few parties will start into the flelds, however, for thirty days, as October 1 the open season for chickens and grouse be- gins. These birds are more plentiful in the state than they have been for ten years, and Brown, Cherry and adjoining countles are swarming with birds. There has been less pot hunting this season than there was last and the birds &re not so wild. By the time the chickens may be killed the flight of geese and ducks from northern waters will be in progress, so that hunters expect a most suecessful sea- son. The quall are protected from the hunt- rs for another year, but the enthusiastic sportsmen cannot refrain from looking at the birds, and they say that when the sea- son opens noxt year these birds will be more plentiful than they have been since Nebraska was admitted into the union, 1f Do bad season intervenes. One winter, . with melting snows which freeze at night, ‘will do more to kill quail than all of the hunters of the state, and until next spring it will be impossible to say what the con- dition of the birds will be when the sea- son opens. COUNCILMAN LIKES LEAGUE My, Zimman '« He Profited Greatly Councllman Zimman returned Saturday and Assistant City Engineer Cralg yester- day moral from Grand Rapids, Mich., ‘where they attended the annual convention of the League of American Municipalities held last week. Both gentlemen feel that besides having had an enjoyable trip and an agreeable experience in their participa- tion in the proceedings of the convention, they have gained greatly in their knowled; of municipal economics and have acquired information that will be of service to them and the city of Omaba in the performance of their official dutles. Mr, Zimman said: “I consider the league to be an excellent Institution and it affords & great advantage for the different cities to profit by the experience of the others. The procedings throughout were of ti ,greatest interest to me and I am convinced that any public officer could profit by at- tending one of those meetings."” A Man Badly Injured, Or palofully hurt, burned, bruised or ‘wounded gets quick comfort from Bucklen's Arplea Salve.

H. 0. Herring Speaks of the Danger in Evading Them. DRIFTING WITH CURRENTS OF CUSTOM Preacher Says Men Shrink from Test- ing Present Duty by the Stern Light of the Judgment Day. Rev. Hubert C. Herring preached at the First Congregational church Sunday morn- ing from the text and theme: ““What is Your Life?" James 4, 13. These were the words of the disciple in that eplstle. The pastor dwelt upon the evidences of a divine origin of the human soul, and the Christian view of the service due to Christ, who has ransomed his soul, and closed as follow: “It there is any one danger which more than another threatens me and my fellow men it I that of evading the full accept- ance of the responsibility of our lives. We drift with the currents of custom and prejudice and example. We yleld to the caprice and passion and weakness within ourselves. We shut our eyes to the far- reaching consequences of our influence. We refuse to take the long view of things ex- tending far beyond today's sowing to the harvest, which it will bear. We shrink from testing the present duty by the stern light of the judgment day. We are impatient of the discipline where full fruitage can only be found in the long ages of the future. ‘“We read with blind eyes and unrespon- sive heart the parable of the talents where from the gentle lips of Christ is taught not only the lofty record of faithfulness, but the fearful irremediable disaster, which walts on faithlessness to our trust. It is the distinguishing glory of our Puritan fathers that they accepted as no other el of men have ever done, the full re- sponsibility of life. Doubtless they were too sombre a visage, often they falled in their sense of the proportion of things. But no man destitute of the Puritan spirit can ever stand level with lite's demands. ““This is my answer to the apostle’s ques- tion from out the heart of my own deepest faith. My life is God's gift bearing the dignity of its divine origin summoning me to respect myself for the divine in me and to despise myself for every sin and folly which defiles His Image. ““My life is Christ's, the purchase of His love and agony, to be ylelded to Him in gratetul service. “My life is my own, dowered with un- fulfilled possibilities which I must attain through tofl and pain and earthly love, if need be. “So there are three ownerships, three seals of possession upon my soul. But there is no conflict between them. For all things are mine, and I am Christ’s and Christ is God's. “I have opened to you my own heart. I now lay the question on yours. What is your life? Are you facing its significance? you deal fairly with itz high and solemn issues? My brother, I bég you to remember, whoever you are, whatever you do, how glorious le the treasure in your keeping, how perilous your watch and guard. In the midst of your adversity, buffeted by misfortune, faint and sick, for- get not that your life need not suffer. The buffeting of the waves will pi Oh, keep the integrity of your soul. Cherish your " health. In the midst of your prosperity, gra ing with eager hands the pleasures and ambitions of the world, I beg you to re- member that your #ife is more than these. It in their pursult your soul suffers loss there is nothing that can make it good.” CHICAGOAN TAKES SAME TEXT. Rev. Kane Also Answers Questio: “What is Litet” At the First Presbyterian church Sunday morning Rev. W. B. Kane of Chicago preached in the absence of the pastor. The speaker took as his text the word s Your Life?” from James 4:13, effoct: ““The leading inference of this question Is to point to the brevity of life. I want to use it in a larger sense, but in complete harmony with the thought of the evange- list. The questions, problems and anx- feties of human life, its follles and temp- tations are the same in all ages. In this sense it is true that there is nothing new under the sun. These are not problems to be settled by one generation for another; one man cannot settle them for another, even God cannot remove them without de- stroying much of interest in lite, for it is by solving these problems that we come into the fullness of manhood. The purpose of religion is to help men at this point. The teachings of Jesus Christ centers about these fundamental features of life. This Is why the teachings of Christ never become antiquated. Life 1s a mystery at which some play, some wrestle and some scoff, making it a mock and at last a tragedy. “The philosopher, the poet and the mora- lst bave failed to find the end for which they sought. How noble is the Christian's conception of the soul of man—a part of the infinite. But this Is not the idea with which the world is actuated. There are some to whom life means an opportunity to secure possessions; others to whom life means the power of achlevement and others to whom life means the power of develop- ment. The first are always thought of in conpection with their wealth. Thelir names are but the label on a mass of treasure and when death rubs out the label they are forgotten. Those who achieve are bet- ter, but with them there is danger that achievement may be gained at the expense of manhood. The third class are those who desire to become something. right, to serve God, to make will perish.” Amusements. At the Boyd. “Hello Bill,” which was chosen to open the season of 1902-3 at the Boyd, is like a 1t 18 much better than its name and instead of being a farce comedy is really a comedy with singed cat in several respects. very little of what is nowadays conceived to be farcical in it. It by selves from the results of a night of re elry preceding the wedding of one. llam’ Fuller by name, whose namesake is a general in the army about to be dispatched to Cuba. Willlam Fuller allows it to be understood that he is General Willlam Ful- ler, and out of the situation thus brought about considerable fun is easily developed. Mr. Harry Corson Clarke hardly deserves the adjective “‘unctuous,” for his humor is nefther broad nor oleaginous. On the con- trary, he is direct and pointed, and witty without being coarse or undignified. He makes much of a character in which a less painstaking comedian would certalnly fail. In his supporting company he has gathered notie but capable people. Mr. §. 8. Wiltsle, as Christopher Culting, “who fixes things 1s an excellent foll for Mr. Clarke, and Miss Margaret Dale Owen, as Isabella Dore, a widow, who weds Willlam Fuller because she loves him, and then is told her first husband still lives, is decidedly clever. A fair sized audience was present at the mat- inee yesterday and the house was well filled last night. Hello Bill" will be given at a spectal matinee today and again this evening. Krug Park. The clear weather of yesterday brought out the largest crowd of the season at Krug Park. After failing for three successive Sundays the two noted aeronauts, J. Waldorf Hall and Howard Hall, succeeded in making a fine ascension in a single monster balloon. As the two men salled skyward they gave a thrilling trapeze performance, making daring swings and exchanging places from one trapeze to another. “Little Red Rid- ing Hood,” the new moving picture fea ure, scored heavily with the women and children. It is a decidedly pretty presen- tation, counterparting the deceptive wolf, “Little Red Riding Hood" and other char. acters of the familiar fairy tale in such a vivid manner that promises a strong card, especially for the little ones. Both con- certs by Huster's band were enthusiastically applauded by unusually large audiences of music lovers The “Passion Play” and other free attractions, as well as the bowling al- leys and other pastime devices, enjoyed a blg patronage. For the various plenic parties and hollday visitors who ‘will celebrate Labor day this Afternoon and evening the varfed bill of free shows will be elaborated uvon with extra features , There will be no speech- making, the entire program being calculated for entertalnment purpos On tomorrow night the Sangerfest, com- memorating the battle of Sedan, will be the speclal feature. These are the saints. To get goods is an animal passion, to do good is & human im- pulse, to be good a divine inspiration. The greatest power on earth today is the power of & God-like lite.” OULTIVATE SPIRITUAL VISIONS. Advice of Rev. Thomas Andersom of Calvary tist, The necessity of visions and what the world has gained from men of visionary minds was the theme upop which Rev. Thomas Anderson discoursed at the Cal- vary Baptist church Sunday morning. The sermon was based on the text, “Where there is no visions the people perish. Rev. Anderson told his hearers that i common ordinary life visionary people wi accepted as persons with disordered brains, useless, impracticable, pursuers of bubble The vision, as spoken of in the text, he held was not thus used, but & visionary person was one who really sees. s to men of vislonary minds, - discovery of America was the result of & dream or vision of Columbus. Telegra- phy was first a vision; the freedom of a mil- lion‘ black slaves was thought to be the idle dream of a visionary mind. All great m were men of visions; every great discovery was first & vision; every great stride made in the betterment and progress of the world was the result of a vision by some one. “There is & commereial and a spiritusl side to these visions. In the great com- mercial world, when men have visions of the uniting of capital and the advancement of commerce, the spiritual vision is lost SUNDAY_ CONCERTS POPULAR Royal Itallan B Wina Plaudits trom' Lakge 'Matt Eveilns Au ‘Two concerts which won high approbation and contributed’ to the popularity of the Royal Italian band were added yesterday to the history of the Musical festival. The attendance at both afterncon and evening performances was large and the programs were such as to win hearty and frequent ex- pressions of approbation, Among the selections played in the after- noon were several that have become fav- orites’ with the Omaha audiences in the course of this engagement, such as Men- played as a flute Lamonaca, and the “Return gne of Rivela’s own compo- the The feature of the evening entertainment, as it was arranged by the management, was the “Hymn to the Sun,” a descriptive com- position from Mascagni's latest operatic work, and it -was produced with great flect and recelved with evidence of high appreciation and approval. Several of the other numbers, however, moved the audi- ence to hearty applause, prominent among being “Narcissus,” which was played as an encore to another selection. By re- quest the “Royal Itallan Hymn" was played toward the close of the evening. The programs for the afternoon and even- ing performances of today are as follows: MATINEE.

There are still several large blocks of stock to be reported upon by their holders and they have until night in which to signify their intention of accepting the offer made by the New York corporation. There was some interest shown in the report that the formation of the union by the employes of the company would have some effect on the proposed sale, but noth- ing could be learned.from officers of the company on the subject, they refusing to discuss the matter in any way.

There is an understanding that the councll will adjourn until Tuesday night, but about the Board of Education nothing can be stated with accuracy. There is lit- tle for the council to do, but with the board it is different, as the schools open Tues- day and final orders may have to be given. Road Machine Working. The city road machine, which was idle for quite a time, 1s again in service and is being used on Twenty-third street be- tween E and B streets. As soon as this work s completed, which will not be until the rain stops for a time and the roads dry up, the machine will be moved to streets in the southern part of the city, where some rounding up is badly needed. Want Immediate Improvements, Those who expended their money for the grading of E street from Twenty-fourth street east to Twenty-third street want the city to proceed at once to repair the big washout at Twenty-third and E streets. Unless this is done at once it s stated that the whole filling will wash out.. In- quiry at the city engineer's office elicits the information that in case the grading on Twenty-seventh street continues with- out interruption about 5,000 yards of dirt will be used to fill this hole. In addition to this the city will put in a drain and run the storm water onto the property directly east. It will take considerable work and the city will be put to quite an ex- pense to make this fill on account of errors made by a person formerly in charge of the street department. Magic City Gossip.
