Dr. Chivers followed his sermon, based on a theme from John xii:24—25, by & local application to the work of bullding the new church. “I feel that my text on the necessity of self-sacrifice for true living iz not alto- gether inappropriate to the occasion. I know somecthing of the work that has been done. I know that In this work and in the contributions which have been made o it, the spirit of self-sacrifice has been shown in a high degree, both by yopr pas- tor, Mr. Wellman, and by the congrega- tlon, From the statement I know that there Is a further need of this spirit to bring the church free from its debt so that you will be able to give all your efforts to Christtan work. 1 am glad to see in this meeting 80 many representatives of other Baptist congregations in the clty and of other denominations. The Methodists are more united in this respect than we and we can learn from them.” The address of Dr. Chivers was followed by the dedicatory prayer offered by Rev. C. W. Brinstead. After the singing of the hymn, “All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name,” tre benediction was pronounced by Rev. W. V. iteynolds of Castellar Street Presbyterian church. SPEAKS OF MIRACLES OF CHRIST. Rev, Phillp Davidson Draws Theme from Ben Hur, At Bt. Matthias' church Rev. Philip David- son took for his subject ““Christ's Choice of Our Nature to Perform His Saving ‘Waork," Hebrews 11:16. The rector stated that his line of thought was suggested by witnessing the drama of “Ben-Hur,” in which both the human life and the dtvine nature of the Master were vividly and rey- erently impressed upon those present, ‘Bpeaking of Christ's miracles he said: “Still men will ask ‘Did Christ tndeed work miracles?” Remember that the works of our Master were performed in the most important center of human life outside of the city of Rome. Palestine was in those days the heart of the east. It was the highway from Asla to Furope and from Egypt to Indla. Jerusalem, its chief oity, was the focal point of a pligrimage so vast as to shame our tides of modern tourfst travel. Jews became acqualnted with all that transpired and carried the news with them all over the world. The miracles of our Master were not hidden acts, but performed before vast multi- tudes of these people. The doctrine which He taught formed a doctrine which aroused and divided the people. He was crucified amid scenes of the utmost excitement in this center of eastern life. Shortly after His deuth His disciples scattered over the world proclaiming His divinity and His resurrection. “If these things had not occurred there would have been instant denfal. But the Jews admitted His miracles, but ascribed them to demoniac power. Modern skeptics ;‘l:he:hln hnrpo-uned a knowledge of laws of nature vers: A Iy than were known in *“He Q1d possess a knowledge anda power over forces and laws which we will never know as long as the world stands. His first miracle of changing the water into wine wus not a miracle more wonderful than the process by which God works the | same miracle today through the increase ' of the vine. The miracles of Christ are | nothing more than the operation of higher laws, which are one with those we call the laws of nature and with them are enthroned In the bosom of God." NEGRO PROBLEM IN THE SOUTH, Miss Lucy Laney Sees Sol Help of White Miss Lucy Laney, & young colored woman Teprésenting the Hames Industrial school of Augusta, Ga., addressed the congrega- tion at the First Presbyterlan church yes- | terday morning and presented the case of the negro in the south. *“The negroes came to this country,” said | Misa Lane; ‘many years ago, not of their own accord, but on persuasion of the | traders.

About 10,600,000 negroes are now In the United States and out of this number we have 20,00 negro ministers and teachers. In Augusta, where the popu- lation 1s estimated at 4500 people, the races are about evenly divided between the negroes and the whites, and in the pubil schools, with an attendance of 6,184 pupils, negroes outnumber the whites b: iimost 100. There are two distinct cla of the negroes, namely, the city slave and the plantation slave descendants, and any- body visiting the south will find them some- what different in their modes of living.

Rev. Willlam n Preaches First Sermon at Hirs “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels.” This text, from 8econd Corinthlans, furnished the theme for Rev. Willlam Es- plin's discussion at the morning service In Hirst Memorial church. It was the min- Ister's first sermon to hig new congre tion,he having lately been transferred to this church from Hopper, where he had presided for two years over the Metho- dist Episcopal church. Rev. Mr. Esplin has been in the ministry for twenty-five years and all that (ime preaching In Nebraska. To his new charge he 'will lend his best efforts in building up a large congregation. In his first mon he brought to his new congregation an inspiring lesson on the love of God and the treasures of Heaven and earth. ‘Man in his original state was one of God's treasures,” said the minister. “He is still His most precious treasure, but in his lost condition, in the vice of the world of todny, to which he oftimes too read- ily succumbs In ignorance of carelessness, he becomes less and less a treasure and may finally be lost. That man who may rightly consider himseif a treasure of the Lord is an exalted being; he is good in all things and excells In his moral qual- fties. Lost, he is the reverse and Is a creature calling for the commiseration of both God and man, though he may net, himself, realize it. “A careful study of God's character gives us an insight into His life while on earth, as well as of the life to come. Light of the Spirit, or witness of the Spirit brings | to us knowledge, reconciliation with God and the indwelling peace of God in our hearts. The greatest gift of God to man- kind. “By faith we appropriate the blessings of God has promised, both in His life and the life to come. To remain a treasure of the Lord, keep His commandments, be faithful in the faith and love God and your neighbor as you love yourself. BELIEVES CHINAMEN, IN THE Robert ¥, Lewls, representative of the Young Men's Christlan association In Bhanghal, presented a new view of the Chinaman to an audience of men that filled the main portion of Kountze Memortal church yesterday afternoon. “The Chinaman is not well understood in this country or even by those who have observed him in his own land,” said Mr. Lewis. “I belleve in the Chinaman and in his country. Hé i a man who must be believed in, because he is a man of power. “Chinamen love and hate ardently, and this proves they have souls, “The work of the Young Men's Christian assoctation in China was begun hesitatingly and only after long invitation of the com- bined denominations and churches at work in the empire, At present seven men from the United States are carrying on this work. This number is inadequate. “There are fifty Christian colleges in the | empire and about thirty conducted under the jurisdiction of the government. At present, by direct orders of the empress downager, fssued shortly after the Boxer uprising, more than 1,000 institutions of higher learning are being established. An educational and intellectual wave is sweep- ing over China. 1 disagree with the views of travelers in China, that the educated natives refuse to embrace Christianity. Evidence can be adduced to proye that educated men in the Orient are more will- ing to follow Christ than the uneducated natives. “The native Chinese educational system is one of the most extensive in the world.” Mr, Lewis related a number of instances showing the results of the conversion of Chinamen to the Christian faith, telling how they had given up lucrative positions to propagate the new religion In the land of Confucius. HOW CHR HOULD THINK, Proper Sabjects of Meditation Theme of Rev. M. G. HillL Rev. H. G. Hill at the First Christian chruch yesterday took for his theme, Things for Christians to Think About.” “I thank God,”” he said, “that the spirit and essence of Christianity reaches be- neath the surface. Our laws have & tend- ency to make men think that our character is told by our acts. Only our reputation is known by our acts. What’a man thinks, that he is. Buddhaism is believing that @ man will be saved by his meditations and not by his aets, most wearly ap- proach Christianity. heir difference is the nature of their thoughts. Christianity is more th@n intellectual, it is of the heart. The mind and heart cannot be separated. If a man believes in God he will have the right kind of a heart. It Is a fundamental fact that what a man thinks, that he is. That to which a man's thoughts turn in- stinctively when he is alone, is the thing he worships. Christianity goes into the heart and kills the ido! in embryo, In a crisis the mind will take the channel marked by previous thought. Our minds are 100 much filled wita trivial things and things that debase and debauch. “Paul sald: ‘Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, what- soever things are of good report; If there be any virtue and if there be any praise, think on these things' We are masters of our thoughts. ’ First Fall © nion. The first fall communion service was ob- served at St Mary's Avenue Congrega- tional church yesterday morning and for the first time the new individual commu- nion service provided by the women of the church, was used. Mr. Kelly, musical director and organist, provided a very ap- propriate program which was rendered in & most sympathetic manner.

SCHEME TO KIDNAP GROOM Plot to Prevent Marriage of Ruth Bryan Laid by Girl Admirers, DISLIKE FOR MR, LEAVITT THE MOTIVE Oniy naideration Bride Her Sorority Sisters— How Bride Got Her Wed- ding Troussean. for Re- straine Consideration for the feelings Ruth Bryan led the girls of the Delta Gamma sorority, of which Miss Bryan is a member, to abandon Saturday night a plan which for audacity could have had incep- tion only in the minds of mediaeval robber The Delta Gamma girls had plans actually and fully laid for the kidnaping of Willlam Homer Leavitt. They wanted to prevent his mar- riage to Miss Bryan and hit on this idea to effect it. At the eleventh hour some of the girls weakened. "“Think what it would mean to Ruth,” one suggested. ‘“That's so,” chorused some of the more timid of the conspirators, and a few minutes more of discussion led to the resolve by the girls to let the wedding take its course, The objection which Miss Bryan's sorority sisters urge against the man whom she chose for husband fs that he is too mat- ter-of-fact. A year ago Miss Bryan was the most popular girl ameng the Lincoln Delta Gams. The other girls worshiped her, to use their own expression, and the man they would have selected for her would be tall and Gibsonesque. Mr. Leavitt is short and squatty—far from an ideal according to their way of thinking. The project of preventing or delaying the wedding had its origin a week ago, when the Delta Gammas held the annuul house warming at Lincoln. A score of Omaha girls were there. The wish was parent of the project. “He's not the kind of man Ruth ought to have at all,” whispered the older girls among themselves, “I declare, 1 wish something could be done to stop the ding,"" lhl‘]\t'll in another. \“Don’t you suppose we could do something te stop it?" suggested a more venturesome member. Then the talk grew serious and definitd. Conspiracy the Result, The upshot of it was that a meeting was agreed on for Omaha. Only the more courageous and true-blue girls were asked to attend. In the emergency the girls sought the ajd of the men at the univer- sity. Thelr help was solicited in an in- definite way. All last winter during party season, when the girls agreed to dispense with expenditures by escorts for carriages, it was understood that when the oppor- tunity offered the men could be relied on to do a great favor in return for the con- sideration shown thelr pocketbooks. This was the opportunity. They were asked to stand ready to do a bold deed without questioning the propriety and a promise in every instance was exacted. At the Omaha meeting a few days ago the conspirators decided on kidnaping. 1n de- tall the plan was to inform Mr. Leavitt that Miss Bryan desired to see him at once and in the carriage which was to be at the door to have him driven to a cave south of the city, trusting on the darkness to pre- vent the groom-to-be from observing that he was not heing driven tc the Bryan resi- dence, which is three miles from the city in another direction. The university men were {0 be commis- sioned to employ several ruffians for reten- tion of Mr. Leavitt when he made the dis- covery that deception had been effected. It was not later than afternoon when the ring- leaders in the plot developed what the anclent Latin used to call frigidus pedibus and remembered what would be the feel- ings of thelr eorority sisters if the wedding were delayed under such sensational cir- cumstances. 8o late was the plan abandoned that the Omaha girls aware of it were not notified. None from Omaha There, As far as could be learned none of the Omaha members of the sorority was pres- ent at the wedding. The reason they gave for not attending was noncommital. Among friends they made no secret that the match was not in accordance with their ideas and thelr disapproval was expressed by their absence, To several of the sorority girls Miss Bryan on the occasion of her shopping trip to Omaha a few days ago confided a secret regarding the source of the funds for the purchase of her trousseau. The story was told his daughter as a joke on Mr. Bryan. When the Bryans declined to sanction the marriage they were plain spoken in the in- formation that they would not help to bring the wedding to pass. Mr. Bryan, so the Delta Gamma girls say Miss Bryan con- fided to them, would not co-operate to the extent of furnishing the required money for the purchase of the trousseau. “Papa forgot,” chuckled Miss Bryan to friends, “that all these years when he gave me small presents, and sometimes large ones, of money, I didn't spend it foolishly, but put the money in the bank on interest. The morning 1 came to Omaha after the conversation with papa about the trousseau 1 went to the bank and drew the balance. It was $1,600. Quite enough for a trousseau and more."

GREAT EDUCATIONAL FACTOR The Marvellous Growth and Progress of the Omahn Commercial College, How many readers ever stop to think how Important a part In the development of the city fs played.by its educational in- stitutions. So accustomed are we to re- gard industry as embodied in the manu- facturing of mater'al things that we almost entirely lose sight of the training of the mind—that greatest of all tools employed in the conquest of nature. Yet how much greater is the task of giving shape ana | tone and polish to that raw product—the untutored mind. What a vast compass is embodied In this task! What a field for industry, indeed! Yot in this fleld of in- dustry Omaha is fayored with scores of in- stitutions in their various special branches and the enormous part they play may perhaps be partially concelved by citing a single instance, that of the Omaha Com- mercial college, which is no doubt scarcely exaggerated when this school has un en- rollment annually of over 1,000 puplls, and here let us pause to conslder what this | large enrollment means for Omaha. To | begin with, it brings to the city not less than $200,000 a yea, distributed among our merchants, theaters, churches and private | familles. Only recently the Y. M. C.

CHUCOVICH GETS INJUNCTION Proprietor of Diamond Secures Restraining Order Against His Enemies. DENIES RUNNING GAMBLING RESORT Declares Parties Have Conapired to Destroy Mis Which He Avows is Legal and Legitimate, Rusine Judge Dickinson Saturday afternoon granted a temporary writ of injunction to V. L., Chucovich, proprietor of the Diamond saloon, 1313 Douglas strect, restraining out- siders from interfering with or attempting to destroy the business of Mr. Chucovich, either overtly or by circulating the damag- Ing report that he is conducting a gambling resort. The chief of police and sheriff, who are made parties to the injunction, are re- strained from arresting any patrons of the place, merely on the plea that they are trequenting a gambling house. The writ is returnable Saturday, October 10, In bis pr‘fl\ln‘m filed in the district court, Mr. Chucovich alleges that he is not c ducting a gambling busines but Is law- fully and legitimately enga d In running a saloon and that certain parties have con- spired to drive patrons from his place and destroy his business by circulating the per- sistent report that his is nothing but a gambling resort. The petition recites that the owner of the place has a government and a eity license for running a saloon and is doing so without the attachment of a gambling or pool room. It states that up- stairs, where the pool room is sald to be, some chafrs, tables and a telegraph instrument specifically for the purpose of commodating his patrons with reports of the rac nd other general sporting news they may wish to have. Not a gambling devise n be found in the establishment, saye the petition, Dunn and Abbott Hired. Mr. Chucovich further states that the persons seeking to injure his business have employed Attorney 1. J. Dunn and Lysle Abbott, who already have filed two papers, one in Justice Baldwin's court and the other in the county court, setting forth | that he Is conducting a gambling resort, and that these attorneys have further avowed their determination to continue to wage war against his place until they have put it out of business. | This case coming at thig time naturally attaches some new interest to the recent prominence which has come to J. H. Me- Donald, who is mentioned as one of the parties engaged in saying that Mr. Chuco- vich is running a gambling house.

It is only natural, then, for the deduction to follow that in the Omaha Commercial college Omeha may pride itself in pointing to one of the finest and best equipped scheols for mercantile edugation to be found west of the Missis- sippl. High in its rank, wiorough in its equipment, it is a proud monument to the long years of hardship and struggle in which Rohrbough Bros. fought their way, often against stupendous odds, unalded by | bequests or gifts, but b the supreme power of their perseverance and faith, like the pioneers who blazed the way for set- | tlement of this western country.
