“MAN ESSENTIALLY BIVINE” Evangelist B. Fay Mills Delivers “Address to the World.” BEGINS MEETINGS IN OMAHA Need Exista Now te Reorganisze O ditions—Men Should Cultivate Love and Trust—Three Speeches Today. 'As a man realizes his essential divinity, he will recetve knowledge by intuition, wisdom by insplration, character by the consclously dwelling spirit, and will in- telligently surrender himself to the uni- versal purpose and identification with an infinite will,” asserted Benjamin Fay Mills In his “Lecture to the World,” at the Lyrie theater Friday. Dr. W. M. David- son, superintendent of the public schools, introduced the' speaker. The first lecture by Benjamin Fay Mills in Omaha was Gelivered in the Lyrie the- ater Friday afternoon on the subject, “Three Ways to Love.” Mr. Mills arrived here in the morning from Lincoln. At the lecture Mr. Mills was introduced by Rev. F, L. Rouss of the First Congregational church, ' /The evening lecture was one of his must powerful and thrilllng addresses, but all the seats were free. Large crowds attended the lectures yesterday. < WoFld’s Supreme Moment. Mr. Mif# subject was “An Addréss b the World." He said, in part: . “We have arrived at one of those su- pfema moments when an old world pa-sos away and a new world comes Into uxist- " enge. “Man Is destined to break through into higher and ever higher stages of evolu- tion.

The whole creation literally groans and travalls in pain until now, walting for the manifestation of the sons of trust and love. “Second, let us make real the universal brotherhood of man.

The explanation of the world is not Babel, but Pentecost. Organising the World. “Third, let us organize the world. The nation must give place to the internation.

CLEVELAND, Nov. 27.—In an tinsuccess- ful- attempt to gain the ear of John D. Rockefeller at his Forest Hill home, Count P. A. De Vries, nobleman of Amsterdam, Holland, was fired upon twice Yyesterday, being ejected from the Rockefeller mansion. Since Wednesday ithe oount has been ma- king dally attempts to see the head of the Standard Ofl company with Intent to inter- est him In a project for the draining of the Zuyder Zee. Wednesday and Thursday De Vries was turned back at the gate. In a huge rented automoblle De Vries approached the Euclid avenue entrance to the grounds at high speed. The astonished gatekeeper shouted to him to stop. De Vries continued through the open gates and about the winding driveway toward the house at the top of the hill. He was fired upon as he neared the hovse. Leaping from his automoblle, he mounted the steps and entered the door, followed by & squad of guards who came on the run. Before De Vries could enter Rockefeller's study, however, he was | collared by the butler and by Caretaker Knapp and ejected. While the excitement was at its height Rpckefeller himself was 100 yards away on the goif links, unaware of the failure of the Zuyder Zee project, Count De Vries has announced he will make further attempt to see Rockefeller.

The _imperial su- préme court today rendered a decision in 8 patent case in which it Interpreted the patent agreement betwssn Germany and | the United States in favor of an Ameri. | can company, which has a branch office| in Berlin. This branch uffice secured lot. ters of patent under the German law on an invention, but it falled to place the invention on the market within three years, the time specified by the German statute for so doing. Thereupon a Ger. ! man brought sult to vacate the patent rights and the patent office decided in his favor. The American firm, however, took an appeal to the imperial supreme court, while awaiting & decision transferred patent rights to the parent company in the United States.

SEATTLE, Wash.,, Nov. #7.—~Humor was injected into the Cunningham coal land inquiry Friday when Horace C. Henry, the Seattle banker and rallroad bullder, was placed on the stand by the defense and naively admitted that he had Joined the claimants, without knowing any- thing about the proposition and that he had signed numerous affidavits without knowing what they contained. I got 80 used to signing affidavits that I just signed anything that Cunningham asked me to,” sald Mr. Henry. Henry sald he was approached by Cunningham in 1903. Cunningham told him that C. J. Smith and former Governor Moore of Washington were interested in the claimms and asked It Henry wanted to file on one. “I told him to go ahead and put me in,” sald the witness. “I told him that it he wanted any money to draw on me. He always did. I did not pay any attention to the claims or what the other claimants were doing because I was too busy bulld- ing rafiroads in 18%. I took the contract to bulld more than 500 miles of the coast ex- tenslon of the Chicago, Milwaukes & Bt.

This shows thet I signed affidavits with- out looking at them. Cunningham brought Glavis to my office and asked me to sign the affidavit. They sald it was all right and I stgned it. T 41d not read it over.” Throughout his testlimony Mr. Henry frequently sald he could not remember what passed betwsen him and Cunningham and that he never pald any attention to the business. homoring drafts that were made upon him by Cunningham and taking it for granted that everything was all right. ‘The defense expects to complete the ex- amipation of witnesses tomorrow. Charles J. Spith, a Seattle banker and formerly general manager of the Oregon Rallway and Navigation company, testified that he had entered the Alaska land in good faith, that he had not attended the mecting at Spokane at which consolidation of the claims was discussed and that he had not beeh concerned in any way in negotiations with the Guggenhelma Is Japanese a White Man?

PIERRE, 8. D, Nov. 2.—(Speclal.)—A prominent business man of the state, whose work takes him to all sections, while In this city a few days ago took exception 1o a recent statement by John H. Seriven of Mitchell, in which Soriven is quoted as saying that he could not find any political discussion at any point, until he had started it himselt.

The same feeling prevalls In regard to Treasurer Johnson and Secretary Polley, each having given the people an adminmstration in his first term which has been satisfactory, and there 1s no good reason for making a change at the present time. With the same feeling In regard to the two supreme Judges just appointed, and to be elected next year. As to State Officers. After the list of “hold-overs,” the primary mékes it opan for anyone who desires to get into the race for the positions of auditor, land commissioner, superintendent of in- struction and attorney general. For these positions It is an open fleld. For the posi- tlon of the head of the educational depart- ment the aspirants already appear to be numerous, with a wide field to choose from. For head of the state land department no one has appeared in the open as yet, -but before the primaries come around there will no doubt be a large enough field to make a selection from. For the auditorship up to the present the men who have Indicated an Inclination to step up higher are John M. Johnson of Lyman and By J. Lampy of Codington, both now serving as county auditors of their countles. For attorney general the names so far mentioned are C. Jorgenson of Roberts and Royal C. John- son of Hyde. And by the way, the move- ment for Johnson is one which has an ele- ment behind It which the older politicians of the state had better consider. The move was started over a year ago by a bunch were clansmates of Johnson, and they are keeping the question agitated so far a they are concerned. They are appealing to the young voters of the state, with John- s0n as the man they are backing. While he has not yet decided to go Into the race, the young men who are responsible for starting the move are lusistent that they can win, and the younger voters are a strength which must be considered, John- son was not only popular in the university, but as & base ball catcher played in many parts of the state, winning popularity for himself In that way and securing another circle of young acquaintances who willing to help him out for anything he may ask. Besides being & good bal catcher, as states attorney of Hyde county he showed mbility of a different-elass of catching, by adding to the twine plant foroe at Sloux Falle a half dozen members of & horse rustling gang which had been work- ing in Hyde county for several years, and this helps him in his own county. The ‘Egan sentiment, which appeared to be strong when his campaign was first started in the fall, appears to be hard hit by the storms of winter, and reports from the southeastern part of the stats where It appears to have been the strong oat, indicate that it is waning. Democrats Sitting Up. With the apparent entanglement in re- publican ranks of the state, the democrats e taking hope. They feel that with the hope which springs eternal in the breast of every democrat they have a show this time, “If" the party will only hold to- getber, Leaders of that party have lately suggested Possibliities for governor: Homer Jobnson of Rapld Cty, thelr na- tional committeeman; Dick Lyons of Ver- milion, their state committeeman, and Fred 8. Rowe of Fort Plerre, who carried Stanley and Lyman countles for the state senate two years ago, with a strong re- publican majority for everyone else in the two countles. For congress, Robert Em- mett Dowdell, who has shown himself as one of their shrewdest legislative manipu- lators whenever he has broken inio the legislative pasture, which, by the way, has been more often than the average dem- ocrat a chance in this state, 1s & bllity. As a matter of fact, he has coyly let it be known thai he would not be averse to making a try for goal on that line, and he will probably be given the opportunity. That Is about as far as they have announced their desires up to date, but by the time of the primaries, if they can get enough voters rounded up by that time to attempt to get into the primarfes, they will probably have a complete llst ready for inspection of the voters of thelr faith and push them along to the final vote in November. Briand Replies to Abbe Gayraud Premier Tells Catholics They Have Duties to Nation as Well as to Church.

M. Briand said the time was rapldly ap- proaching when. as had several times been the case in French history, bishops and priests, subject to the domination of Rome, would prefer to do thelr duty as French- men rather than their duty as Catholies “You are being forced into an attitude which has become so harmful to this eoun- try at home end abroad that your con- sclences as Frenchmen should speak louder than your consciences as Catholics,” the premier declared #'Wartare seems to be escential with some peoples.

And under the sun of this geniality Mr. Olcott warms to his work with a zest and an earnestness that warrants the popu- larity he has achleved. He was most gracious last night, answering encores in profusion and singing—an added song in front of the curtain between acts, after having made a cute little speech and tell- ing & good story. And for this he was rewarded with that evidence of appro- bation that is dear to every actor's heart, and is doubly enjoyed when it is known to come from those who are sincere in their support. “Ragged Robin” has changed very little in the year that has elapsed since it was seen here. It is a good story, with the elemént of “heart Interest” strongly de- veloped, the ordinary human aspect of the case belng superposed on an under- pinning of assistance from the fairies, who still abound wherever people can be found who belleve in them. It has mueh melodramatic strength, and is beautifully staged, with lightlng effects that add greatly to its general attractiveness. Mr, Olcott last night sang no new songs, feel- ing somewhat the fatigue of a long trip of forty-eight hours on the road to Omaha, He had intended to sing one new song, but preferred not to attempt it till he had had a night's rest. But his vole little trace of his bodily wearinesd, and he sang all his songs with that sweet lyrical quality of tome that has made him the most popular singing actor of the day.
