THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY JANUARY 5, 1903 KOUANS RESICNS PASTORATE! Pastor of Grace Lutheran Ohurch is to| Leave Omaba Soom. BECOMES SECRETARY LUTHERAN LEAGUE After Fifteen Years Continuous Serv- fee He Leaves Charge Here Free of Debt to Take Up More Important Work, After a pastorate which had been con- | tinuous for fAfteen years, Rev. Luther M. | Kuhns of Grace Lutheran church announced with deep regret to his congregation Sun- day moruing his intention of leaving Omaha to accept a new and important work which had been thrust upon him. Rev. Kuhns was recently elected generai secre- tary of the Lutheran League of America, which he was partially instrumental In founding and with which he bas been closely jdentified as a member of the executive committee, and felt it his duty to accept In resigning his pastorate Mr. Kuhns stated that he expected to leave for New York by January 30 to assume the dutles of his new position and that his quarters would be in that city. His field will be trom ocean to ocean. He will have the honor of delivering addresses at large con- ventions which will be held in New York, Philadelphia and Boston during the next few weeks. His letter of resignation was given to the council of the church and will be acted upon at the annual meeting next Sunday. Much regret was expressed by the mem- bers of the congregation in the loss of the beloved pastor, whose work has been un- ceasing and with excellent success, as through his efforts the present edifice, free from all debt or obligations, has grown from a mere mission. As a fitting discourse the pastor preached upon the subject, “The New Year's Mes- 0, in which he admonished his congre- ation and members of the church to live in the future and not the past; not to be- eome Christian fossils, but active workers; #0 that their lives shall not have been in vain. NEW RESOLUTIONS SUBJECT. Dr. Mann Says They Indicate Con- sclonsness of Imperfection, Having in the carlier part of the serv- fce read Longfellow's poem, “The Two Rivers,” Rev. Newton M. Mann preached upon the subject of new resolutions, choos- ing his text from the Revelation of St. John: “And another book was opened, which is the book of life. I am the alpha and omega—the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is and which was and which is to come.” To put the hook of Revelation before | his hearers in the true light Dr. Mann re- called the conditions which inspired it, staling that that portion of the east out of which the book came was convulsed at the time by a concurrence of most dis- tressing events—earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and destruction of cities by the Romans, which the people of that day in thelr state of enlightenment could only ex- plain on the theory that the end of all things earthly was at hand. They, in their belief that the world was then some 4,000 years old, considered it to be very old, and in their expectation of a quickly coming Christ looked upon the events of those times as unmistakably foretelling the end of the world. In this enlightened age of 1,800 years later men's ideas of the span of the be- gioning and end of the world had been ex- tended and it had been accepted that th day of judgment would not be deferred until the end of time. He presented the thought that if each day in itself iIs not a day of judgment there must be in the cycle of each one's life certain perlods which fulfill that purpose. A year, ho sald, is the perfod occupled by the earth complet- ing the circle of its orbit around the sun, and a year must be an important epoch in the 1ife of any person, as it is not given to many of us to make the journey more than fitty times. Dr. Mann counseled his hearers not to look lightly upon the resolutions of the new year—even though they are all too often broken and disregarded—for at least they Indicate a consciousness of imperfec- tion and a disposition to strive for some- thing better. He commended resolutions to form new habits and overcome old ones that had been recognized as undesirable and to more completely perform one's duty. He suggested a resolution to attend church with the same regularity and punc- tuality as business, and expressed regret that such exhortations should usually oc- cur at times when those whom it is par- ticularly desired to reach are absent. ABOUT RELIGIOUS SELFISHNESS, Dr. Lo ys “Don’t Be Thinking of Eternal Mansion Dr. M. DeWitt Long preached at the Knox Presbyterian church yesterday morn- ing from the text, “And he that reapeth receiveth wages.” Dr, Long pointed out that the wages were the only thing that incited many Christians to effort, “Thero s perhaps no selfishne: said he, “in all the world like religious selfishness. The Christian s heard to say, ‘What a glorlous thing is this saving of the soul; how mag- alficent it will be to have a mansion in the sky; I want those things for myself. To, bave those things is what I will live for. Those are the objects for which I will aim.' The man who lives his life to ‘be prepared to die is not prepared to live. Don't be thinking constantly about eternal mansions. “Why is & man made? Why Is a man liviog? What is his purpose? Or, to better reach the answer, take the highest type of map. Ask why was Christ here? That He might secure a seat in the eternal man- slons? That He might live a life above reproach? You say no! Those things are all desirable enough, but they are not the object of lite. Living a lite of simple service, and of glad service to the world. That is lfe. “The majority of people are mistaken a to what life {s—as to what religion is People outside of the church are asking e, ‘Can the Christian religlon with all its_high pretensions do for man what they Beed have done? They have a right to ask that of any and of every Christian. They are asking now from tne lowest to the high: business men, professional men and laborers, concerniug our religion, “Is this the one that is to come or do we Jook for another? And we have got to FOR DESSERT, SUNDAY, JANUARY 11th, 1903, " try JELL-0, prepared according to the fol- lowing recipe: ANANA CREAM.

Herring Says Light Streams Upon Shadowed Futu Rev. Hubert C. Herring, at the First Congregational church yesterday morning, took for his text Hebrew xIf, 2: ““Who for the joys set before them endured the cross, despising the shame," “Jesus found a sustaining power in His vision of events to come,” he sald. ‘He took long views of life. We need to catch His spirit. On this first Sabbath of the new year let us vonsider bow we, too, may take ‘long views' We have the power to do it. It fs quite true that we cannot read the future. Tt s a sealed book. And in another view of the case, we are able to say what life will be, glven certain conditions. And these conditions rest with us. “There are two sources from which light streams upon the shadowed future. One is human experfence. It would be strange after all these ages if humanity had gotten no clue to the course of human lte. It it has learned nothing else it has at least learned the law of the harvest. Frult is seen to follow seed and to follow like in kind. Evil begets evil and evil begets sor- row. This one fact is full of prophesy for your life and mine, “The other source l& the revelation of God In Christ. There the will of God, the plans of God and the hope God has for us are written in light. He who believes in the revelatfon knows what his career will be If hé puts himeelf in the line of God's thought for him: “So to him who drifts blindly on we say, ‘You need not. You have the power to take long views of life’ To him who declares himselt an aguostic we say, ‘It is of your own choosing. You have needful light to take long views.' MAKES PLEA FOR TEMPERANCE. Rev. Eccles Wants to Eradlcate the Liguor Evil At Immanuel Baptist church Rev. Rob- ert Kerr Eccles preached, taking as his theme the new year and his text Genesls xxiv., 21. He sald in part “The messenger of Abrabam came to the home of Rachel and was welcome as the blessed of the Lord. So should we grect the new year, as each of the ‘365 days which will come with it have been given by the Lord, and will carry with them His especial blessing to all true bellevers. The messenger came 10 carry back with him the greatest gift of the household, the fair and lovely daughter, and 8o should we each day be prepared to return to the Lord some gift, some sacrifice. Let us give to the Lord our best. There {s much that we can do. Take the newspapers of the city today and we find whole pages devoted to the work of hell and damnation—in the advertisements of applications of persons who operate houses swhere the downfall of men are accomplished. Are we not go- ing to strike a blew at this evil? “Let us do radical work—work witi the individual and see these things drop off. I belleve in the taxation of this evil; taxa- tion until they are driven out of business. Is there not some one under the power of depraved appetite to whom you can ap- peal? Go to him as a brother, not ae a re- former. - A reformer looks with cold eye upon the victim of evil, while the brother looks with an eye of love and sympathy. He goes down to the poor drunkard and elevates him. You can eradicate this plague, but not by laws. You must get down side by side with the vietim. Let us be up and doing in this matter.” ALL READY FOR CATTLEMEN Kansas City Has Made Great Prepara- tions for Thelir Enter- tainmeint. KANSAS CITY, Jan. 4.—Tre local com- mittees having in charge the entertain- ment of the Natfonal Livestock conven- tion, which meets here on the 13th, have announced that everything is'in réadiness for the big meeting. The leading hotels have already booked reservations for eomething over 1,000 dele- gates and visitors, but accommodations are | ample, so there will be no dificulty in se- curing rooms. Information bureaus will be established at the Midland and Coates house, from where visitors can be directed to hotels, boarding houses or any place they desire to visit. The business of the convention, which will be held in the Century theate:, will be of vital importance to those engaxed in the Industry. Speaking of this meeting to- day, the secretary sald: ““The officers of the assoclation hope that the delegates are coming here solely to at- tend to business durlog the day and will | forego all amusement until evening. We | will earnestly request them to attend every | session of the convention, being in their seats promptly at 9:30 a. m. and remaining until evening adjournment. | The entertainments provided for by the various committees surpass anything of the kind ever given the association. They will all be held in Convention hall. This will be handsomely decorated and all features of the program have been arranged for the speclal entertainment of the visitors At the grand ball on Wednesday night it is expected that the grand march will be led by Governor A. B. Cummins of Towa; Governor A. M. Dockery, Missourl; Gov- ernor Richard Yates, Illinois; ex-Governor E. P. Savage, Nebraska; Governor J. W. Balley and ex-Governor W. E. Stanley, Kansas, and Hon. C. H. Grosvemor, con- gressman from Ohfo. In addition to the soclal functions and business of the association there will be several sales of pure-bred stock during the | week. Seveal of these are from the finest herds in the country. On Saturday following the adjournment of the Natlonal assoclation the annual meeting of the National Wool Growers' a soclation will be held in the Century the- ater. Senator Francls E. Warren, presi dent of the organization; 8. N. D. North, secretary of the National Association of Wool Manufacturers; Dr. D. E.

ADDRESS ON ELECTRICITY Edward Rosewater Speaks at Meeting of the Philosophioal Society. LITTLE UNDERSTOOD FORCE OF NATURE With All the Marvelous Progress in Electrical Sclence the Constituent Elements of Electricity Are Undiscovered. An unusually large number of the mem- bers of the Philosophical soclety were present at the regular meeting yesterday afternoon at 2:30 in parlor B of the Paxton hotel. The speaker of the afternoon was Bdward Rosewater, who delivered an ad- dress on the subject of “Electricity as a Vital Force.” He sald: “About throe years ago I ealled upon Thomas Edison at his laboratory in South Orange and found him at work in experi- menting upon a new storage battery which he has since perfected. the course of our conversation I asked the great elec- triclan, ‘What is electrielty? To this question the wizard of Menlo park re- sponded: ‘Ycu know as much abdut it as 1 do.’ That fs not literally true. I am sure Edison has forgotten more about elec- tricity than ever I can possibly hope to learn, but for all that his answer was sug- gestive and significant. What Edison doubtless intended to say was that with all | our marvelous progress In electrical scl- ence we have not been able to determine the constituent elements of electricity. “All we know about electricity fs that 1t 1s one of the correlative forms of en- | ergy. In fact, sclentific tests have demon- | strated that heat, light, electricity and magnetism are interconvertible. Light fs convertible into heat, heat into electricity and electricity into magnetism, and elther of these forms of energy can again b con- verted Into each other. All of these forms | of force in reality are symptoms of motion in matter. That brings us to several fun- damental truthe: “Pirst—That all matter is indestructible and all change of form in matter is pro- | duced through energy. “Second—That energy is as indestructi- ble as matter and energy permeates all matter under all conditions. That energy | cannot be separate from matter Is a truth that Is being demonstrated every hour of | the day. Take, for example, the form of | energy known as heat and you will find that no known substance is witbout some heat at any stage. Liquid air, reduced by thermometrical measurement to 400 de- | grees below zero, still retains an infini- tesimal quantity of heat and consequently of energy. Matter, whether in a gaseous, lquid or solid state, being permeated with energy In some form and energy never ve- ing at rest, it follows as a sequence that all matter {s in constant motion. Only a Symptom of Motion. “Another fundamental truth that under- | lles electricity as a vital force is that en- ergy is only an expression or symptom of motion, and all energy and matter being Inseparable, it follows that all matter is in constant motion and change is the uni- versal law. The basalt rocks that under- lie glant mountains have boen presumed to be absolutely stable, but experiments and experience have demonstrated that they are in constant motion. Every atom of their granite masses is changing places with other atoms, and that change, im- perceptible to us during the course of myr- iads of years, is one of the sources of phys- ical evolution of this globe. “The most potential form of energy, manifested through visible motion in com- bination with crganic matter, constitutes what 1g called Iife and its abstraction from | the living Lody is called death. But there is no death; there is constant and eternal change. ‘“‘Astronomical sclence teaches us that the earth ie a planet; the solar system and myriads of systems in the constellations of the heavens rotate in infinite space through the eternal procession of the cen- turies. New worlds ar being born and old worlds are dying, or rather changing. From the collisions of meteoric matter and from the impact’ of larger cold and dead world masses, derelicts in the ocean of space, nebulae are forming and in the process of evolution become suns or planets. “No part of the cosmos is stable, but the law of conservatfon of energy and in- destructibllity of matter proves the per- sistence of the universal substance. Men, planets, suns and stars live thelr time anc pase to other forms, but the universe is an indestructible substance and. perpetual motion continues without decline. The suc. cesslon is complete. New suns and worlds take the place of the old and any day-is as much a day of creation as any other. An Electrical Reservolr, “The earth is a reservoir of electric and magnetic energy, generated by its diurnal revolution around its axis, while gravita- tion represents the force that propels the earth within its planetary orbit around the sun. In its daily rotation on its axis within an atmospheric envelope the earth is simply a collosal dynamo 8,000 miles in dlameter, in which the poles sustain the relation of a magnetic cylinder. e | atmosphere that surrounds the earth is sat- urated with gases and vapors. The terrific speed of the terrestrial dynamo, rotating within this atmosphere, generates the elec- tricity concentrated in the terrestrial globe, and the friction of the earth with the vapors, or clouds, that surround it gen- erates the lightning and atmospheric elec- tric phenomenon, which repeat themselves from day to day and year to year. “These views relative to the earth's tunction as the reservolr of terrestrial elec- tricity have as yet not been concurred in by a majority of sclentiste. They are, how- ever, conclusions that have impressed them- selves upon me after many years of ex- years ago telegraphers and electrical scien- tsts generally held the belief that the earth | was the conductor, or medium, for conduct- ing the return ecircuit from the end of the battery attached to a telegraph line to the battery attached at its terminus. “In other words, the ground-wire con- nected with the electric generating battery at Omaha would carry the current of clec- tricity into the earth, and that current battery at Chicago by way of the ground wire in the Chicago office, making a com- | plete circult between Omaha and Chicago. Rejecting & Theory. | “This theory I rejected within a few | months after I had become a practical tel- 1 could not make myself belleve that the current gemerated from our bat- tery and psssing down the ground-wire into the earth was endowed with an intel- ligence and precision of impulse that would lead it straight on to Chicago, St. Louls or Denver and find its way under streets to the particular building where the telegraph office was located, and then climb up through the ground-wire into the battery in the fcurth story without coming in con- filet with any other current that was trav- eling in the same direction. “As @ matter of fact, ground-wires of commercial offices in all large cities con- nect anywhere from five to 100 wires, and all these currents pass down the one wire into the earth and then are presumed to subdivide and strike out into the various directions, either north, south, east or west, through the earth and land at the mact spot - where comuection Is made | | by a ground-wire into the earth an equiv- | has sixty-tour boilers of 500-horse power through underground wire with the respeo- tive battery. “This theory, so repugnant to common sense, 1 rejocted and formed the conclusion that the earth was simply a great reservolr of electricity Into which the varfous cur- rents generated by chemical batteries were passing and out of which an equivalent was returned at the otber end, balancing the general quantity of electric energy within the reservoir. In other words, when the quentity of electric energy forced its way alent forced its way up out of the earth at the point where the circult was completed “Having become convinced that the earth was a reservoir of electricity, my next de- duction was that a constant supply of en- ergy must be generated from some source, and that source, in my judgment, is to be found in the propulsion of the eaith around its own axis, which, as we know, must gen- erate a vast amount of electric energy, and that energy being part of the earth, is ab- sorbed by the earth. As a Motive Power, “The general public has not kept track of the wonderful progrees that has been made fn the application of electricity as a motive power. The most stupendous power plant was installed last year by the Man- hattan Elevated Raflway company in New York. At the time of its completion it was the largest power plant in the world and had the largest engines ever bult. It each. There are eight engines of 8,000 rated horse power cach and 12,500-horse power maximum. This makes the plant 100,000-horse power. The high pressure cylinders are forty-four inches in diameter, and the low pressure eighty-eight inches. The foundation plate for the alternator is cast in a solid plece, ten feet three inches by forty-three feet, while the alternator cast steel hub weighs twenty-five tons in one plece. The alternator complete weighs 445% tons. The application of electricity s a motive power for the New York Ele- vated rallway has materially improved the rapld transit, as compared with steam power. “The application of electricity to the operation of great railroad systems has also made rapld strides during the last twelve months. It has grown beyond the €uburban railroade and is no longer a doubtful experiment “On New Year's day Edison gave out, among other statements: ‘We are only in the infancy of electricity. Its possibilities no man can dream no more than a man fitty years ago could have foretold what we have today. Little discoveries like the Roentgen and the Becquerel rays will lead to great things. What, cannot be told just now." Experiments of Scotchman. “As far back as 1844 James Bowman Lindsay, a Scotchman, projected wirelesa telegraphy and made some exper'ments over moderate distances, but his experi- ments were cut short by his death. The blographer of Lindsay has dslivered a lec- ture on these early experiments on wire- less telegraphy and has exhibited his ap- paratus and diagrams. The Scotch Inventor transmitted signals from Portsmouth across the Tay. At the conclusion of the address Mr. Rosewater answered a number of ques- tions put by members of the soclety. Y. M. C. A. WORK FOR THE YEAR Twelve Million Dollars Raixed and Expended Its Work L in t Year. NEW YORK, Jan. 4. —Twelve million dol- lars represents in round figures the amount shown on tHe records of the American Young Men's Christian assoclations, as ex- pended and avallable in 1902 for its work, for the payment of bonded debts, for en- dowment and for the erection of new bulild- ings. This sum includes in instances the culminating work of two and three years. The membership list, with lapsed names eliminated, has overtopped 300,000, and the number of associations exceeds 1,600, There has been steady progress in num- bers, in efictency and in service, but espe- cially motable and significant is the com- prehensive study of association problems and the apprehension of the needs of young men and the adaptation of the association to meet them. A movement for the 4,060,000 men engaged in manufacturlng pursuits, which will reach skilled mechanics, lum- bermen, miners, cotion mill operatives, etc., has taken shape and will be devel oped under the international committee’ guldance. Street ratlway assoclatious, sus- tained by the traction companies at Brook- lyn and Rochester, inaugurated that new movement. The raflroad assoclation mem- bership exceeds 50,000; student department, 40,000; boys' department, 50,000, and the army and navy, colored and Indlan asso- clations show increases. Nearly 30,000 young men are fn the evening schools. Working boys between 12 and 1§ are drawn in large numbers into the evening classes and given education as well as evening recreation. The 200 summer camps en- listed fully 5,000 boys. The firet permanent bullding for the Naval assoclation, costing $450,000, has .been opened and is already crowded to its utmost limits. This has been followed by assoclations at Norfolk and Newport. With the sanction of con- gress, two new bulldings are being erected for soldiers at army posts. Quarters are ®et apart at seventy-one army posts for soldiers’ assoclations, with the approval of commanding officers, and work is done on many battleships. The way has been found to organize and help young men In isolated country places by county aesociations. The miselonary spirit characterizes the move- ment. Gifts for foreign work have increased from $55,000 to $50,000, and twelve of the best secretaries have been sent out to for- | elgn lands during the year, and assoclation work has been extended to Mexico. Grawth has been most motable in the associations of the south, of the northwest and among | rallroad men. There are now 450 bulldings owned, costing over $24,000,000; 1,700 paid | officers on the list; the international com- | mittee has secured its first $1,000000 of Omega Oil - ror ColdinChest When a cold goes down into the chest, a man or woman or child ought to stop work right then and there. Go home, soak the feet in hot water and get into bed. Rub the chest and throat thoroughly with Omega Oil Soak a piece of flannel with the Oil and lay it on the chest over night. See to it that the bowels are kept open. Stay in the house several days, if necessary, until the trouble is gone. The use of OmegaOil brings about a much quicker cure than any other remedy. It is to be applied as above every morning and night until the cold disappears. Never allow a druggist to sell you something else when you ask for Omega Oil. Your health is at stake, and your money should command just what you want to buy. We have used Omega Oil frequently for sore throats and chests. Being singers, appreciate its value. We simply v inform you of this fact, We are with Harry Williams’ Own Company, and have recom- mended your Oil to a//the different mem- bers, and they think it wonderful, CLEMENCE SISTERS, 141 East 58th St., New York City.

CHARLES CHILDS SUCCUMBS Omaha's Oldest Pionesr Dies at Home, Eighteenth and Leavenworth, WILL BE BURIED IN MASSACHUSETTS Deceased Came to Half Century Ago and Estab- lished First Saw and Grist MiL Nebraska Nearly Charles Childs, the oldest settler in Omaha and one of the oldest in Nebraska, dled at his home, Eighteenth and Leaven- worth streets, at 3 o'clock yesterday after- noon in his eighty-eighth year. His death came directly from a complication of troubles in which pneumonia predominated, but his fatal iliness began with sufferings from a broken ankle, sustained November 14, when Mr. Childs slipped and fell. The aged patient appeared to be recov- ering, at any rate his partial victory over the accident and its subsequent effects was apparent, until a few days prior to his death, a relapse was observed and humen effort falled then to stay the Inevitable tide. The remains will be taken to Springfield, Mass., the birthplace of deceased, for burial. Mr. Childs came to Nebraska in 1856, from his native place, settling at Bellevue, where he established the first saw and | grist mill in the state. He has been iden- tified with Omaha since its earliest days and actively engaged in business here | until 1876, when he retired. At various | times he was possessed of large means, but | his fortune was seriously depleted during the recent period known as “boom days,” | or at least during that period of depression | which resulted from “the boom.” Had de ceased survived until March he would have | boen 88 years of age. He leaves a wife and four children. PERSONALLY CONDUCTED. Florida Excursion Via “Dixle Flyer” Route.
