The brain itselt was not especially in- jured by concussion and was left mucn like the meat of & well cracked nut. since the structure did not seriously splinter und lacerate the brain or the spinal cord No large blood vessels were ruptured to add pressure on the brain.

Story had entered the house and was trying the door of Smith's bedroom when Smith awakened, and, seizing a single-ac- tion rifle at hand, shot through the door, The burglar evidently heard the movement and had turned, for he was struck in the back. Smith was awakened about 1:45 o'clock. He thought he acted noiselessly, but the intruder evidently heard him and tried to away, Smith is a porter in Burke's saloon at Twelfth and Chicago streets. Story, from letters on his person, lived at Atlanta, Ga., where he had relatives.

Implement dealers in Omaha—and there are nearly half a hundred in this city and Councll Bluffa—are elated over the large volume of business they have done during the year which Is drawing to a close. The scason has been. espeoially good for the sale of portable elevators for ralsing corn and small grains into eribs, granaries and cars. The great value of this machine as a labor saver {8 just becoming known to the farmers of western Iowa and Nebraska and the trade in that class of goods prom- ises to equal that of Illinois and other states, where the up-to-date farm is not complete without that equipment. The use of this class of machinery shows the way Nebraska farmers are forging to the front and taking up anything that will | dd to the efficlency of thelr labors. Omaha dealers say they are now rounding out what Is regarded as one of the most, It not the most, successful year's business in the history of the trade. Automoblies are being recognized as a necessary part of a retall vehicle dealer's line, but strange as it may seem it Is not having the serious effect of curtalling the sale of carrtagés that was anticlpated, ] While orders for two-seated rigs are not {as numerous as formerly trade continues normal on other classes of rigs. Added Interest Is being shown In the implement dealers’ convention, which will be held in Omaka, December 14, 15 and 16, because it is during the progress of the National Corn exposition, in which all the implement denlers, both wholesale and retall, are interested.

More than any other man responsible for the reformation, of which Wycliffe had been the “morning star,” the Protestant world today looks upon Luther as the “liberator of modern thought.”” While his direct following in the United States is not as large as that of Wesley, nor as strong as the Baptist bodies, taking the whole world no other Protestant body can com- pare with the great army which marches under the banner of Lutheranism. The Anglican church is second, with a mem- bership of over 20,000,000, The Lutheran church in the United States now has nearly 2,350,000 communicants. In the sixteen year period of religlous ac- tivity recently reviewed by the census bu- reau, beginning with 1590, it was found that the Lutheran church wi the only one of the four leading Protestant bodies which had a greater relative membership at the close of the period than It had at the be- ginning. The Baptists, the Methodists and the Presbyterfans had a smaller percentage of the total church membership In the United States in 1906 than they had In 189 Only the Lutherans were able to hold thelr relative position among the *big four” Protestant bodles. They advanced as much from their poeition in 180 as the Baptists and Presbyterians went back. Scandinav- lan immigration was largely responsible for this growth, as southern Europe im- migration 18 responsible for Catholic growth, It is interesting to note that there are only three important Protestant denomina- tions which held a larger percentage of the church membership of the United States In 1906 than they held in 1890. These three are the Disciples of Christ, the Lu- therans, and the Protestant Episcopal church. The fight for primacy in relative growth has been a close one between the Disciples and the Lutherans. Guaged by communicant membership the Disciples stand a little ahead of the Lutherans. In the sixteen year period the Disciples had & growth In membership amounting to 8.2 per cent. The increase enjoyed by the Lu- therans amounted to 716 per cent, while that shown by the Protestant Episcopal church was 66.7 per cent. No other prin cipal Protestant church showed an increas above B6.4 per cent. The reason the Protestant churches have found it so hard to hoid their relative posi- tion as compared with the whole body of Christian people is because of the phe- nominal growth of the Catholic church. During the sixteen years that organization made & gain in membership amounting to more than 93 per cent. Added to this is the growth of Christian Science, spititual- ism and other like sects, which recruit thelr ranks from Protestant soll in far greater proportion than from Catholic sources. Only five Protestant bodies have been able to show as great a relative pro- portion of the total church mem: ship of the United States at the close ot the six- teen year period as they showed in 1890, and of these only the Disciples, the Luth- erans and the Episcopalians advanced. The others merely held thelr own. It 1s a strange colncidence that the two church bodies which show the greatest growth should show the opposite extremes of subdivision. The Disciples of Christ are divided into only two bodies, while the Lutherans are separated intos twenty-four distinct and indepehdent organizations. Furthermore, the Disciples represent the purely congregational form of government, while the Lutherans approximate the pres- byterian form of church polity. The third of the advancing bodies represents the third form of church government — the episcopal form. Likewlse, in doctrinal matters these three church bodles represent the three extremes of interpretation. It would appear, therefore, that thelr rela- tive advantage can be ascribed nelther to doctrine nor to system of government, but rather to the missionary zeal of those who constitute the several bodles. Nelther do the statistics point out the advantage or the disadvantage of subdivision. 1t is not only in the number of communi- cants that the Lutherans, Disciples and Protestant Eplscopal churches take leader- ship of all Protestant bodies, but also in the increase of congregations, church bulldings and the value of church property. The complaint of the Protestant world today is that there are too few men in the church. Less than forty out of every 100 Protestant chureh members are men. But this complaint does not lle with such force against the Lutheran church as a whole. More than forty-six out of each 100 of its members are men. No other Protestant denomination except the Quakers shows as great a proportion of male cummuni- cants as the Lutherans. The Baptists have less than thirty-nine, the Presbyterians less than thirty-nine, male communicants out of each 100 members, the Methodists less than thirty-elght, the Episcopalians less than thirty-six, and the Reformed Church Jess than forty-three. In the of Luther Catholic church the mumber of men is only & fraction of 1 per cent under the number of women. The Lutheran church in America dates from 1621, when a body of Lutherans came to Amsterdam, now New York. They v without a pastor. The first church to have a pastor was located at Wilmington, Delawar in 1638 It was a Swedish Lutheran. Tts second pastor trans- lated Luther's shorter catechism into the language of the Indlans, and commenced missionary work amlong them at about the same time John Elliott started his work In Massachusetts. The church was finally absorbed by the Protestant Episco- pal church, and the “old Swedes' church' still stands there under Episcopal care. The first German Lutherans settled at New York, but the Dutch refused to allow them to secure a pastor. Under English rule this was changed, and thoy secured their first minister, Jacob Babricius, In 1684 To the Muhlenburgs, one of them, a soldier-statesman of the revoiutionary period, Is due a large measure of credit for organizing the Lutheran church in America. Dr. Henry Melcholr Muhlenburg organized the first synod of the American church. It is interesting to note that the present year is the first centennial of the bullding of the first English Lutheran church In America. It was many years before others were bullt in which English was exclusively used in the service. The Lutherans now constitute the rank- ing Protestant body In Wisconsin, Minne- sota, North Dakota, and South Dakota, and the second most numerous Protestant denomination in Illinois, Michigan, Iowa, Pennsylvania and Nebraska. In each of these states the Cathollc church is stronger than any Protestant church. Pennsylvania, ‘Wisconsin, Minnesota and Illinols are the leading strongholds of Lutheranism so far as communicant membership is concerned, ranking in the order named. When Martin Luther was a ohild thers was little to indicate the vast history affecting consequences that were destincd to grow out of his life upon the earth. His father was a poor miner. He says In his autoblographical sketches that his fathsr often whipped him for “mere trifles” until the blood came. A glimpse of his early school life Is given by the reglstered fact that he was whipped fifteen times in a single day by his teacher. When he was 18 Martin was sent to the Unlversity of Erfurt to study law. He took his A. M. Qegree at the age of 21, but he decided to abandon the legal profession. One day while examining the Vulgate Bible in the University library he discovered that cer- tain of the gospels and the eplsties were omitted from the lectionaries. This was the turning point in his career. He shortly thereafter withdrew to the Augustine convent at BErfurt. Four hundred years ago, In 1509, Luther received his degree of doctor of theology. and In this year began the serles of lectures which ended with the Reformation acccreplished. For several years thereafter, however, he had no thought of leaving the Cathélic church, of which he was a duly ordained priest. It was only after he concluded that John Tat- zel, a Dominican friar, was corruply sell- ing indulgences that he was stirred to open rebellion against thc power of the pope His ninety-five theses against the sale of indulgences, nafled on the gate of tne church at Wittenburg, 'whs’ the beginning of his open fight on papal doctrines. Then followed the demands of the papal legatee that he retract, the papal bull against him, its burning before the assembled mul- titude, and Luther became the hero of the hour in Germany. After this the Diet of Worms was callad by Charles V, and Luther made his cele- brated declaration, when warned not to go to Werms, that he would go If there were as many devils to set on him as there were tiles on the houstops. On his return from Worms he wae kidnaped by friends and placed in the old astle of the -re Lutheran was past. He translated the Bible into his native tongue, and by the time he left the castle that had been his refuge, his next duty became the checking of the excesses of his followers. Luther stayed at Coburg whilé the famous diet sat at Ausberg, and was not present when the world famous Ausburg Confession, the creed of the Re. formation, was adopted Few men have done so much to change the course of human events at Luther. And no body of religionists has ever hon ored the memory of the founder of the organization more than the Lutherans honor Luther. Wherever a Lutheran church lifts its spire to heaven today the thoughts of its worshipers will turn to the life of the German miner's son, who stood before kings and emperors and transformed the religlous history of the world.

To overcome the power of Cupid and to reconstruct the fire and police alarm sys- tem on a more modern basis 18 necessary for more efficlent service in the two de- partments. As a result men are to be sub- stituted for girls as operators on the alarm system switch board because the girls us- ually quit the service of the company and retire from work on the switch board to get married within a year, which is the time considered necessary before the ser- vices of an operator become valuable. These changes were recommended by Waldemar Michaelsen and ordered by the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners last night. In making the recomm: - dations, Mr. Michaelsen sent a communication to the board as follows. “That the fire and police alarm systems shall, in every in- stance, be maintained as at the’ present time except that the wires be put under- ground or in overhcad cables. The fire, talking and telegraph currents shall be maintalned the same as at the present time except that the current of the wires used for talking purposes be split into smaller units, to insure clearer transmissions. “The police alarm system shall differ from the present system by the removal of the register circuit and mechanism of ubstitute for the alarm boxes in use nt, an alarm box be put In the station with a telephone and individual wire In an underground ecircult that shall be brought (o the switch board constructed for such purposes.” The police alarm stations are to be equipped with a gong to attract the atten. tion of the patrolman during the day, should the operator desire to inform the patrolman of a disturbance or to send him off his regular beat to quell a disturbance or to make an arrest. A red light will be attached on or near the alarm box to be used to attract the at- tentloh of the patrolman at night. The light to answer the same purpose as the bell at days. The present alarm system has nothing to call a patrolman and the operator or headquarters station are re- quired to wait until the patrolman re- ports at his rogular time specified. The circuits to be malintained and tested are to be as substantial as at the present time. The recommendation also includes that the switch board to be =o equipped as automatically to register the call of a police afficer or each fire alarm by giv- ing the exact time and location. The report also recommends that the city electriclan be authorized to cancel the contract for maintenance at any time when the contractors fail to fulffll the agreement.and that the contractors be required to give at least four years' notice in advance of a desire to quit the contract The board ordered the city electrician to advertise for bids for making the pro- posed Improvements.
