P THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDA F BRUARY SERMONS ABOUT WASHINGTON Beveral Omaba Preachers Talk of Life o the Pirst President. GIVE MANY REASONS FOR HIS SUCCESS elf Control Was Element Rev. J. M. Ross Says the Most Important in Washington's Great Charaeter. The elements that combined in Georgo Washington to make him an almost per- fect man were measured and discussed by Rev. John M. Ross at Central United Pres- byterfan church Sunday morning in his germon on “The Making of Washington.” He placed great emphasis on the self-con- trol of the first president, and said in part: “This quality was due largely to the strong-willed mother who trained Wash- ington as a boy. It was chiefly by her ef- forts that the lad was taught the value and object of all discipline—self-control. When he gave up a career in the navy, though passionately fond of the sea, at the plead- ings of his mother, he showed the begin- ning of the self-government that stood him In good stead during the remainder of his life. He was able to control and influence others because he had complete mastery of self. “Washington was a man of strong body, of strong will and of strong passion, all of which he learned to govern well beforo Be left the parental roof. It is crue that Washington was not a man learned in books, but his education of the will and the heart was almost ideal. His powers of observation were well developed young, and be learned out of doors what most men absorb In libraries and in schools. In the things that go to make a man Washington was well educated Providence always seemed to be es- pecially kind to Washington and he was protected and ehielded from physical dangers in & way that was almost mar- velous. He seemed to bear a charmed lite, and he could ascribe his good fortune only to the hand of God. A man of strong religious nature, as evidenced in his ad- dresses, state papers and orders to his army, he was a devout worshiper in the Eplscopal church. He avowed christianity in an infidel age when our chief friend waa infidel France. “These things helped to shape the grand, heroic figure of the Washington we know. They are the same influcnces that go to- ward shaping any man. The end may not be as glorious In the eyes of mankind as that achleved by Washington, but the re- sults will be the same in a smaller sphere,” GREATEST AMERICAN CITIZEN, Dr. Tindall Tells of Qualities that Made Washington. “Lessons From the Life of George Wash- ington” was the theme of Dr. D. K. Tin- dall at Trinity Methodist church. Taking his text from the wards, “But he that is the greatest among you shall be your serv- ant,” he sald in part: Washington, by doing more for the peo- ple of the country than any other man, be- came the greatest American citizen. He was well born. When God desires a man for a particular place he begins to prepare him a hundred years before he is born, and 80 it was with Washington. He was by his birth and environment peculiarly fitted for the position he was to vreate and main- tain. He was in a degree an aristocrat, a member of the gentry, a cavaller, posses- sing the virtues of that people, and came from a rank which inspired confidence, as it was a rank which had produced great men, both in this country and In England. T am glad that in this couptry there is an opportunity for the poor and lowly porn— that & man may leave the shoemakers' bench and become a senator; that another man may lay aside the rail-splitter's maul and become president, but I am also glad that a man possessing money and advan- tages from his youth may receive the high- est honors In the gift of the people, and such a man was Washington. “Washington was not only a man of great mental and physical powers, but he was a man of spirituality, of, splendid attain- ments. He conquered an irritable disposi- tion while yet & young men, and in doing 80 won the greatest victory of his life. When I look upon his plcture I seem to see a similarity between his placld face and what must have been the appearance of the #ea of Galllee after the Saviour had caused it to be still—the greatest peace with strong force In its depths. “Washington was not a speclalist. He was not & statesman like Jefferson or Ham- tlton; mot an orator like the elder Adams or Webster; not a philosopher nor a gonius like Benjamin Franoklin, but he was a safe man—a man of rare common sense and #o0od judgment, who could be trusted to do about the right thing In any place. He possessed more than any one man those qualities which the American people con- sider typical of the rac BLESS STATIONS OF THE CROSS. Fourteen Beautiful Figures at Church of Sacred Heart. At the Sacred Heart church Sunday even- ing the new stations of the cross were blessed, Father Theobald, O, F. M., offici- ating priest. The new stations are beau- tiful works of art presented to the church by fourteen families of the parish. Father Theobald preached the sermon, In which he sald that meditation upon the passion and death of the Saviour, as shown in the stations, will give one a greater love for his neighbor as he contemplates the sacri- fices of Jesus for all men, and will give one a greater hatred of sin as he sees the severe penalty exacted by God. The church was filled with people from all parts of the city. The assisting priests were Father John Jeanett, Father Charles Mugan, Fa- ther James Ahearn and Father P. J. Judge, the pastor. HIS INFLUENCE STI WITH U Rev, Eecles Says Power of Washing- ton Lives Today. At Immanuel Baptist church Rev. Rob- ert Kerr Eccles preached from the theme, February 22; Its Memories and Lessons. Despite the generic title Dr. Eccles drew all his thoughts and deductions directly from the belng of George Washington as a foun- tainhead, and said in part “The influence of this man over this pation from that day to this has been re- markable. His name alone, his mere face, is possessed of a vast power over us all from the children up.

All the leadars pale in comparison Think what & grand influence it is for our boys when they look at that calm, large, strong face, sweet and beautiful. They can- not do better than to take the father of their country for a model. ““Washington was ‘ho savior of his coun- try, pecullariy fitted by birth, by education and by natural inherent ability to accom- plish what he did.

A mass meeting of the Freight Hindlers' union was held at Labor Temple Sunday afternoon, at which several hundred men were present. hTe meeting was called for the purpose of interesting non-members in the organization. Addresses were made by E. H. Hales, organizer of the Retail Clerks' unfon, W. H. Bell, president of the Cen- tral Labor union, and W. H. Dech of Ithaca, Neb. Mr. Dech was at one time a leader in the Knights of Labor in the state and was candidate of the populist party in 1890 for lleutentant governor, after having been in the legislature two terms. He spoke along industrial lines. Several new names were enrolled upon the list of members as the result of the meeting. A meeting of the Railway Clerks' union was held at Labor Temple yesterday aft- ernoon, at which a dozen or more names were enrolled on the list of members. This union 1s holding its sessions quietly at present, it being the desire of the local and national officers to mecure as large a membership as possible before any demon- stration s made by the unfon. In regard to the reported discharge of persons be- cause of membership in the union the in- terested parties would say nothing, all questions being answered by the statement that the headquarters of the national union had been Informed of the Omaha si*uation and that pending a report from the national local officers and members would say noth- ing for publication. For the same reason the names of the officers elected would not be made public. The arbitration committee held session Sunday afternoon to try to reach a settle- ment of the trouble between the team drivers' union and the union of team own- ers. When the latter union applied for admission Into the Central Labor union last week the team drivers filed protest, claim- ing that the team owners' was an associa- tion of employers. The team owners say that no man is eligible to their organiza- tion who does not regularly work as a team driver, no matter how many teams he LENTEN PASTORAL LETTER Bishop Bo nnell Addresses People of Oatholio Ohuroh on Their Duties. DISCUSSES PRESENT SOCIAL CONDITIONS Regrets that So Many Persons Are Relying Altogether on Int Calture to Make Human ectual Beings Good, In the Catholic churches of the dlocese of Omaha Sunday morning at each eervice was read the Lenten pastoral letter of Bishop Scannell, in which the bishop dwells at length upon the observance of Sunday and holy days of obligation, the sacrament of matrimony and social progress. On the first subject he says in part The assleting at mass on the days ap- pointed is for C‘atholics a public profession of faith. Every outward act of religion is indeed a profession of faith, but many acts of religion need have no witnes and some of them bind only at considerable intervale of time; whereas assieting at mass is always a public act and it is of obligation at least once a week. In truth, it Is the one act that notably distinguishes Catholics from non-Catholics. To say of a man that he never misses mass does not indeed mean everything, but it means & great deal, for it means this much, that he makes public profession of his faith. On the other hand, to say of a man that he Is careless about hearing mass is to say that he attaches little importance to re- iiglon; while to say of him that he no longer goes to mass means In the public mind that he is no longer a Catholic. Only weighty reasons, therefore, will ex- cuse from an obligation that is so grave in the sight of God and that means so much in the eyes of men Sacrament of Matrimony. On the second subject he says in part: I beg to call your attention to the great importance of observing all the laws which regard the sacrament of matrimony. These laws have for thelr immedlate purpose the safeguarding the sanctity of Christian marriage, and the unity and stability of the Christian family. ’The family i3 the foundation of civil soclety and they who ignore the sanétity of the marriage rela- tion, or deny the stability of the marriuge bond, strike at the very foundation of ety Itself. We live at a time when v lax_views prevail regarding the na- ture of the marriage contract and the ob- ligations which it creates, while the prac- tice of many persons Is still worse even than their views. The laws of the church in the matter of marriage were made both for the good of soclety and for the good of the individual, and they ehould be faithfully observed. It is true that the church can, like any other lawmaking authority, dispense from her own laws; but her children should not ask to do’ 0, except in very rare and ex- ptional cases and for the very gravest reasons. Marriages between Catholics and non-Catholics, marriages between relatives —whether they be related by blood or by a_former marriage—and other marriages which It Is not necessary to mention here, are forbldden by the church. All good Catholles will, as a general rule, avold such marriages; they will not even dis- cuss with themselves the possibility of such a marriage in thelr own case. I need not remind you that, while the church can dispense from her own laws, she cannot may own and that they are as much en- titled to representation in ‘he Central Labor union as the team drivers. DOCTOR STONE ON CREMATION Living Suffer of Barth ‘| Believes Says At the regular meeting of the Philo- sophical soclety Sunday afternoon Robert M. Stone, A. M., M. D., read by special re- quest a paper on “Cremation,” which he presented to the section on state medicine at the fifteenth annual meeting of the American Medican association, held at Col- umbus, 0., June 6-9, 1899. The paper was a complete exposition of the subject, treating it from all its sides, telling of the history of cremation and of 1t8 advantages, rehearsing the objections to it, Including the sentimental, and detall- ing its performance and the good it ac- complishes. It treated of the problemd of whether it wi best to bury the dead, whether the living suffer harm because of earth burial, whether there was any good reason for a custom so long and univer- sally established and whether there were any good reasons why some other method should be'adopted, denying the first, affirm- ing the second, denying the taird and af- firming the last. Regarding the sentimental feature, Dr. Stone sald: “I am firmly convinced that this substi- tution of sentiment, from the grave to the urn, this recognition that the urn with its ashes renders its home sacred, will sooner or later be accepted and will result in the transfer of our holy regard from the grave to the urn, also, beautified with constantly changed flowers, and result in the adoption of cremation by thinking, cultured people of all communities.” HAIR NATURALLY ABUNDANT. ‘When it i3 Free of Dandruff, it Grows Luxuriantly. Halr preparations and dandruff cures, as a rule, are sticky or irritating affairs that do no earthly good. Hair, when not dls- eased, grows naturally luxuriantly. Dan- druff is the cause of nine-tenths of all hair trouble, and dandruff is caused by a germ. The only way to cure dandruff is to kill the germ, and, so far, the only hair preparation that will positively de- | stroy that germ is Newbro's Herpicide— absolutely harmless, free from grease, sediment, dye matter or dangerous dru; It allays itching instantly; makes hair glossy and soft as silk. “Destroy the cause, you remove the effect”—dandruff.

She cannoy therefore, break the bond of a perfec Christlan’ marriage, which the divine law declares to be indissoluble. On Intellectual Culture, On the subject of socialism and soclal conditions he says, in part: It has always been the professed aim of statesmen, philanthrepists and educators to make meri good, 50 \hat they may be law abiding and happy. It is much to be regretted, however, that 8O many persons are now relyln‘ alto- gether on intellectual culture for this pur- pose. They advocate intellectual culture as an infallible means, and the only mean: gt making people 'good and happy. In deed, it may be said that this advocacy has assumed In our day the character of a craze, and, therefore, we need not be sur- prised to find that it is doing more harm than good to a g0od cause. The morality of the poor is usually of a higher order than that of the rich. In- tellectual eulture, leading to religlous scep- tleism and wealth, leading to high living and to an impatiénce of moral restraint, makes 'difficult for men and women to be ple and obedient and faithful in_ the ght of God, Scepticism and unbellef al- ays take their rise among the cultured cle and graguaily find their way down among the people who are prone to imitate those above them, ~And as the people care nothing for that conventional decorum, which constitutes the respectability of the cultured classes, they follow ont . their principles to their logical conclusions. They are now doing this in many countrics, whera soclallstic movements menace the estab- lished orler of things. And it is a sig- nificant fact that these movements have for one of thelr chief atms the destruction of those very upper classes whose teachin and example have been mafnly instrumenta in producing the movements in question. Mission of the Church. The church has been condemned by some because it does not consider it its primary duty to point out tc men the way that leads to affluence and worldly success, It is not the mission of the cnurch to form business men, but to form good men, and that a_good man is of more value in the eyes of God than all the rich men that have ever lived, who were not good. And a second answer to the charge Is that mod- ern progress is not all progress, for if it Were the congress of the United States and the legislatures of many of the states would not now be seeking to destroy by legislation some of its most sallent features, on the ground that they are injurious to the best Interest of mankind. After all, rest assured that no one will ever be ab'e to find a better way of making men contented and happy than by teaching them o “scek first the kingdom of God and His justice.

The governor's address partook largely of the nature of a patriotic ser- mon, held the audience, which was com- posed exclusively of men, at close atten- tion and several times was interrupted by | applause. It was preceded by a song and | issued to Grand Army men and members | of the Union Veterans' union, Millard and Thurston Rifles, Omaha Guards and the Loyal Legion, and each was well sented.

After the bénediction had been pro- nounced Governor Mickey stood at the chancel rail and clasped hands with 200 men, including Mayor Moores und many cther well known citizens. however, made Speaks with Feeling. the governor appeared to be much affected Particularly was this describing that the highest service a man | servant, and declared that the only wa, a man in public office could do what was close to God, and to seek spiritual guide ance with all earnestness. The volce ot the speaker grew husky, and after he had diverted the seriousness of his words by a well-turned bit of humor, many of the jold soldiers covertly reached for their handkerchiefs to dry their eyes. In part | the governor said: “These are days which forcefully remind | us of patriotism and of the sacrifices which | | have been made in securing and perpet- | | uating civil liberty in this natfon of ours. | | During the past four weeks we have ob- | served the birthdays of Lincoln and Me- Kinley and today our thoughts turn to- ward the Father of his Country and we seek to galn some lessons from a life which 1s a conspicuous example of the loftiest | patriotism and whose most enduring monu- | | mént is the esteem and reverence existing | [in the hearts of a liberty loving people. | | “It was the Rev. Joseph Cook who said, in 1884: ‘We will mever have an ideal re. public until every active citizen is an ac- tive Christian and every active Christian 1s an active citizen.’ I believe that this prin- | ciple 1s true. Every citizen should be a man; should love God, and should try to make this republic what God would have it and not what the politiclans would have it. “‘Patriotism 18 love for country and devo- | tion to its institutions and principles. In earthly affairs it is considered one of the highest traits of cheracter. We strive te inculeate it in our children and we cher- ish the memory of those who possessed it in a marked degree. But there is another country toward which we are all fast has- tening and of which we hope to eventually become accepted citizens. In fact, the kingdom of God is established here upon earth that we may all have the knowledge of adoption futo it. Demand Spiritual Patriotism, “This heavenly country demands of'us a spiritual patriotism, the counterpart of earthly patriotism. It would be of a more intense and consuming character even as the interests at stake are correspond- ingly more important. This patriotism 1s manifested by knowing and doing the will of our Father, which is in heaven. “There is a mistaken idea in the minds of many that liberty and license are one and the same thing—that under the pretext of personal liberty one may be justified in glving free rein to his baser passions. { On this assumption is predicated the argu- ment in favor of the saloon, the open Sab- bath and all other forms of iniquity. It s simply a case where liberty {s mistaken for license. The only person who can en- joy perfect liberty Is the child of God. The true cbild of God has no desire to do things which are inconsistent with Christ's teachings and hence his liberty of action is perfect and complete.” | Perfeét C ce. | Where there used to be a feeling of un- easiness and worky in the household when a child showed symptoms of croup, there is now pertect confidence. This is owing to the uniform success of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in the treatment of that disease. Mrs. M. I.
