CHRISTIAN BELONGS TO ALL Name Ought Not Be Avpropriated by Any One Churoh. DR. CONLEY GIVES TS ORIGIN AND EFFECT Hebrew in Spirit, Greek in Body and Latin in Form, Hence Supremely Fitted for Its Fune- tion. Rev. J. W. Conley preached at the First Baptist church Sund morning on the subject of “The Name Christian.” He sald in part “There could be no word would so well meet all the requirements as the word Christian. The name is He B R t v Latin in its form pame te fit the followers of an egreglous literary blunder. Part of the word {8 from one language and part from anhother. It 1s a Greek word with a Latin sufix, But no better selection could be made. It ought not to have been a word confined to one language as it stands for an fdea embracing all languages, all peo- ple and all time. It is well that Chris- tlanity had its beginning in three great pationalities instead of one. From Romans it borrowed power, from the Greek eulture and from the Hebrew devotion “And take the name Christian, how well 1t fits its meaning. The dictionary gives the sufix ‘lanus’ as meaning taking of.’ Partaking of Christ. We have other words, as believer and disciple and these have come through association to mean much, but they do not fit like the word ‘Christian.’ It fs a family name. First let us be a Christian and then a Baptist, a Presbyterian or a Methodist. It doss not seem fair for any one church to take the name Christian. It should be- long to the whole body. Let us exalt the tamily name and let us live up to the meaning of the word, ‘Partaking of Christ.' * coined which NEW PASTOR ON NORTH SIDE. Oloses the Service, but Other Minister Gives Sermon. At the North Side Christian church Sun- day morning Rev. W. E. Gray preached on “Progress in the Church,” his remarks being occasioned by the fact that a collec- tion was taken for the benefit of the for- elgn missions. The speaker referred in an age of progress the church which would live up to its opportunities must be progressive, and said that tn the forma- tion of the church the divine founder had given it the elements of progress; had made it a soclety which must reach out and touch humanity in order to succeed. The world would not come to Christ—Christ had to come to the world, and He came and gave the church the commission which He held /from the Father, and now the church must go to the world—must go to all the world and not to that part of it only within the reach of the individual member. It is the duty of man to give himself first, and then his substance, to the kingdom of God. The progressive church was the one which was fully alive to ita opportunities and which kept bright the command of Christ to preach the gospel to all the world. Rev. J. H. Bicknell, the North Side church, was present and closed the service. Mr. Bicknell is a na- Aive of Indiana, but has lived the greater part of his lifte in Nebraska. Graduated at Cotner university in 1893, he began his work as minister of the church at Minden, and from there went to Grand Rapids, Mich., where he remaiued for a year, going trom there to England, where for five years he was pastor of the church at Liverpool. Another year was epent in England as gen- eral evangelist of the church, and he re- turned to this country to become pastor of the North Side church in this city upon the resignation of Rev. W. T. Hilton from the pastorate. Mr. Bicknell will preach his first sermon next week. to the fact that the new pastor of LET THE BIBLE DIRECT YOU. Rev. Craig's Discourse from Trinity Cathedral Pulpit, As pecullarly appropriate to the second Sunday in Advent, Rev. Robert E. Lee Cralg preached at Trinity cathedral in the morn- ing from the words of St. Paul to Tim- othy: “From a child thou hast known the holy seriptures which are able to make thee wise unto salvation.” Dr. Craig sald he believed in a judgment, because there was that within 's own being which led him to judge himself and to measure his actions by a standard of right and wrong. He also believed in a heaven and a hell, for he had known per- sons whose lives on this earth were heaven and others who had reached the other state in this life. But their conditions were only temporal and in the future estate one's con- dition must be eternal. Some he believed must be lost in the future because they were already lost. Beside the inspiration from within, called consclence, Dr. Cralg said, man had also a light from without te direct him toward the right—this light was the Bible. And the church, he sald, had faithfully performed its duty In giving to all men the words of holy writ. Some strangely instructed per- sona, he said, had declared that the church was founded upon the Bible, but on the con- trary the church had been established and was practicing baptism and confirmation and preaching the word of God sixty years before the Bible was completed Of the Episcopal church, he sald, there was more of the Bible delivered from its chancel in the course of the service than in a dozen of the churches of other denomina- tions, and that portion of the service which was not taken from the Bible would not occupy five minutes.

Bdwin Hart Jenks, to a large congregation. 'He preached on the subject, ‘“The Value of Living.” He drew | the illustration that in this hurrying age, | when commerclal actiyity and progress were seemingly paramount, the real ob- jeet of living—a pure and devoted exist- | ence in Christ—is too apt to be overlooked | or forgotten. He sald that the unit of | measurement of a life is not seventy years, | as the actuaries have figured, but the days | which we lve, during which time we are | placed in positions of great magnitude and | importance, where the real purposes for | which we were born might be exemplified. This may be dome, he sald, by turning | sadness Into joy, removing the cares of others, together with the faculties of mak- ing life enjoyable and worth the living | tor ourselves. He emphasized the fact | that today people are rushing through life | intent on the future, looking for next year, tomorrow, and forgetting today, little real izing that If today is lived the day and vears following will care for themselves. | The great hypothesis of today, he ex- plained, Is evolution, which fs united with gravitation.

For the last few days there have been sent to Captain Mostyn and to The Bee office letters the purport of which is that the writer knows of certain meedy persdns to whom assistance would be a blessing. Upon sending an officer to the addresses given in the letters Captain Mostyn has discovered that several of the families 80 mentioned were supplied with such neccesaries as would provide them against want. The cap- tain is taking steps to dotermine the author of these letters. “We have found that the writer of these letters clalmed the same address as fam- ilies who have been given help,” said the captain, “We will have a severe winter to face and the department will endeavor to Investigate all cases where alms or assist- ance are solicited. That impositions have occurred in the past makes it necessary for us to use special diligence against their repetition. The mayor received a ietter this morning from the same person who wrote The Beo letter, but we find the con- ditions which she named to be greatly mag- nifled.” —_— Recreation and good exercise in Ping Pong.

EULOGIES BY GERING AND SULLIVAN Nambers Also Contributed by Promi- Musieians—Auditoriam in Filled with Members of the Order and Their Friends. nent Loe With the Orpheum theater /mearly filled to its great capacity, 300 members of Omaha lodge No. 39 conducted a memorial service of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks Sunday morning, to demonstrate once more that that fellowship which binds one member to another so strongly during life endures after that life is ended, and to give the surviving ones an opportunity to renew their pledge that the faults of the departed “are written upon the sand; their virtues upon the tablets of love and memory." Projecting from the boxes on elther side was an elk’s head, with globes of purple and white twinkling on its antlers. A smaller head rested upon the Bible which, with the Elks' flag, rested at the front of the ex- alted ruler's station, half obscured by flow- ers, ferns and palms. Roll of the Dead. To the rear of the stage was hung the roll who have been admitted to the grand lodge above: Willlam B. Alexander, John F. Boyd, Don | M. Chamberlain, Willls F. Clarke, Ollin N. Davenport, John M.

The other members of the lodge were seated in a body directly in front of the stage, with teemed Leading Knight Lulun C. Gibson, Esteemed Loyal Knight Lee Estelle. Esteemed Lecturing Knight James R. Dewar and Inner Guard Willlam A. Watson in the boxes at the sides, in order to preserve the lodge form required in ceremonial work. With the local Elks were seated a number of others from out of the city, including Exalted Ruler Henry Gering of the Plattsmouth lodge. Tho momorial service was conducted yesterday by more than 1,000 lodges, from Manila and Honolulu to New York. It was the four- teenth in the history of No. 39. At 10:30, the designated hour, Exalted Ruler Crawford opened the ceremonies with & few words concerning the occasion and its significance, and led in the ritualistic work, which consisted of responses by the esteemed leading knight, esteemed loyal knight, esteemed lecturing knight, secre- tary, treasurer, chaplain and inner guard, and the calling of the roll of the dead, each pame fading from the roll as it was pronounced.

Barton sang “Face to Face;” Mr. Robert Cuscaden played, as violin solo, H. Vieux- temps' “Adaglo Religioso;” Brother J. B. Sullivan pronounced a second eulogy; Miss Rose Allen sang “One Sweetly Solemn Thought;” Mr. Jules G. Lumbard sang “Child of the King;" the officers of the lodge performed the brief closing cere- montes and the audience joined the quartet in singing “Auld Lang Syne.” Mrs. Au- gust Mothe-Borglum was the accompanist for all the sololsts. Gering's Eulogy. Brother Gering’'s remarks, in part, fol- low: There ought to be more sorrow and mis- givings in the creation of a life than sad- ness at its death. The one brings with it the awfulness of uncertainty; the other the consolation of repose and rest. The one is the genesis and the other the apocalypse of life. 1 had rather place a flower upon the edge of & friend’s grave than to enjoy the dimpled laughter of a child just brought into being. Death with a relentless tread has wan- dered into the forest of this order and hewed therefrom its sturdiest oaks and most promising saplings. Whether from the narrow casements of their present habi- tations they respond to the memaries which e arouse or whether from a celestial hori. Zon abdve they remember us as we remej ber them, we do not know. This is the u solyed and perplexing interrogatory whic theé finite asks the infinite; the Interroga- tion point at which the simplest child and the profoundest philosopher must pause alike, So long as ambition 1s fed by the hope of fame monuments of marble Will rear their heights to heaven as an epitaph to genius, but 1 would rather have as a monument to my memory such as is pald here today than alf the shafts of marble reared at the altar of fame. To know that some loving' hand will plant & flower upon a grave or some heart sorrow at a dissolution is the great- est monument of all. Judge Sulllv s Address. Judge Sullivan sald: In this world of ours it is not all of life to live, as it is not all of death to dle. Man cannot live within himself. The Creator made us all brothers and by that one act of ilis divine will enjoined upon all hu- manity to cast aside selfishness and make tne common brotherhood of man our polar star, It is not fame that {8 needed today to make the world better. It is not history {0 chronicie the events of mankind. What 16 needed is @ noble purpose of doing good to others, unseen but by the Ome in whose hand the universe is as the opening bua of the morning flower. 1f the fraternal hand is closed today, or unwilling to open at the request of humanity; If your heart Is seared by the corroding influence of wealth, then indeed is this life a fallure. I would rather be he who had given shelter from midnight storm to one of God's little who from his hand had let fall the last morsel to some dumb brute, than have 1t said | had entranced listening senates or had solved intricate problems. To the true Elk all huma is his brother and he ows it I8 more blessed to give than to re- ceive. He asks no questions as to creed or ationality, but silently and meekly gives aid and assistance where needed. The motto of our order is the answer to every appeal. An Eik has but one hope and that 18 Charity. He has but one ideal and that is Justice. He has but one bride and that 18 Brotherly Love, and his earthly vow is delity to every trust.

The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul rall- road Las incurred the displeasure of the Unfon Pacific strikers, who say that Presi- dent Earling’s road Saturday night deli ered an engine to the Union Pacific at Counell Bluffs. Strikers have already taken steps to avert serious trouble with the Milwaukee and to induce that road not to turn over any more locomotives to the Unfon Pacific while the present labor war 1s on. What the result will be ls indefinite. It is not known under what conditions the Milwaukee delivered the engine to the Unlon Pacific, whether it wes done in ac- cordance with some provisions of the traf- fic alliance just consummated between these two roads or not. No matter what the conditions were strikers declare the Milwaukee must not project itaelf Into this trouble. “The engine was turned over to the Union Pacific at Council Bluffs, having been brought directly from Milwaukee and is in shorough repair,” said a leader of the strikers. “We are not advised whether the Milwaukee intends sending more en- gines, but if it does there will be trouble. We already have communicated by wire with labor friends in Chicago and have been advised by them that they will send business agents of the machiniats, bofler makers and blacksmiths to confer with the Milwaukee authoritles Monday, urging them to desist from aiding the Union Pa- cific in this way. If our requests are ig- nored and the Milwaukee continues to help the Unlon Pacific the result will be a strike on the Milwaukee road. It is thought the Milwaukee, which en- joys the reputation of according fair treat- ment to organized labor, will not allow it- self to be caught in this sort of » trap. Strikers spent much time yesterday try- ing to locate the houses at which strike breakers are boarding. By noon several of the men who had been at work had passed upon all of the houses in the district to which they had been assigned. These mem.- bers claim that the total number of houses are not as large as was expected. It was understood Friday night that the strikers would report the houses first to the Cen- tral Labor, unfon, but Sunday it was sald that as the central body endorsed the pol- fcy of the plackemiths' unfon which brought the plan before it, the reports will be made to those constituent unions which are {nterested, such as the team drivers, the meat cutters and grocery clerks and walters, so that members of those unions can take action before Central Labor union meets again, which will not be until December 19.
