He set forth in positive terms the cue of the case. In closing he said: entlemen of the jury. This concludes this fmportant cuse, except vour delibera. tions and the return of your verdict. In a criminal case like this the case cannot be tried- except by ajury of twelve men and your verdict must be unanimous. The court has no power to determine the facts. The defendant can not walve a jury. These facts must be dotermined by you and by you alone. Since the year 1214, now nearly 700 years, all English speaking people have Migreea that criminal cases like this must be determined by a jury of -twelve men and by no other method: The position you now occupy s all important. Your duties and responsibilities are very great. To abolish the trial by jury is gomething that no parllament and no congress and no leg- islature has dared to abolish or Interfere with. The attempt to abolish the trial by Jury would be followed by a revolution and the government would be overturned and the days of the French revolution would be | repeatea. 1t is for vou gentlemen to see to it that the trial by jury is maintained in all of its dignity and vigor and honesty.

Don’t Forget Monday, March 21st, the Big RUG SALE HAYDEN’S IMMENSE SUM FOR MISSIONS , (Continued from First Page.) the canvass are received from all church committees of Greater Omaha and Councll Bluffs. The men signing the report were W. H. Russell, chairman; Robert Dempster, J. F. Wilhelmy, F. W. Foster, M. ¥. Sears, Rev. J. W. Jones, Rev. Charles Hanley and Dr. A. C. Brown. Reports from all the churches in the Omaha-Council Bluffs district will be re- celved at a mass meéting fixed for April 10 at the Young Men's Christlan assocla- tion, Omaha. Opened with Prayer, Yesterday morning's conference on stewardship at the First Methodist church was opened with prayer and song. Then Rev. W. B. Anderson, who serves in the Punjab, India, spoke on the toplc, “Prayer Our Most Effective Method.” He lald down the premise that It takes more than men, and more than money, and more than the power of both combined, to evangelize the hosts of non-Christian peoples. Prayer he considered the great essential behind it all, and he proceeded to give Instances of power following prayer in the infant church in India, Persistent, long continued prayer, “with face in the earth,” had ener- gized the Christian workers ‘in India In a most remarkable way. in some instances 2,000 peopls had attended at prayer meetings which had continued over a day and & night, and another day and a night; and the misslonary pictured mighty results for Christianity. Dr. E. H. Richards took the place on the pregram of C. W. Allen of Cincinnatl, talk- ing of “The Principles of Stewardship.” Dr. Richards has had thirty years' ex- perlence in Africa, and he sald it hardly fair to Inflict a wild man from that savage landa on such an audlence at short notice. But the audience liked him, dis- tinetly. Rhodes and Livingston, He started off by saying he had met in o at some recent affair, the smallest man he had ever run up against, but he passed the incident off without bitterness, Contrasting the lives of Cecil Rhodes and Dr. David Livingston, this African mis- slonary gave the empire bullders all the credit falrly his due because of his great glving and his philanthropic bequests. “It was great giving," sald Dr. Richards, “but it was not Christian giving. Rhodes was too big, in his own view, to g0 to Then consider the story of Dr. ton, Whose life went out in a spirit of prayer. He gave all he had to God's service, and he had much to give. His body was buried in Westminster Abbey, among the gréatest of his nation. But his real burial place 1s not there; he is buried |in the love and affection, in the undying remembrance of thousands of people In that dark continent where he took the mes- sage of the gospel.” Dr. Richards pictured a recent visit he pald to & woman in Iowa who had been contributing $80 & year to support a mis- slonary in Africa. Hé had found her alone, an old lady of 8, reading her Bible on one end of the table where her meal had been sct. “When I told her who I was, and she had asked about the fellow she | was supporting, and what he was doing, she asked me to pray with her. She 80 sweetly Christlan, so unconsclous of the great sacrifice she had been making | from her slender means, that I feit hardly | worthy to kneel in prayer beside her. Her's was Christian giving, the Influence of which must reach the throne of God him- | selt.” | Zeal of Native Christians. | Dr. Richards also told many instances | of native Christians giving absolutely everything they possessed in the world to help their charges In the mission schools, | and of how they would even trade their own clothes o get cloth to make clothes | for their puplls. In his field are 1,800 chil- | dren recelving Christian instruction on seventy-one stations. Rev. 8. 8.

It will work out gloriously.” | Dr. Charles E. Bradt of Chicago volced “A Call to Stewardship” most eloquently and impressively. He sald most of the millionaires are in the churches, so-it s not a question of paucity of riches and re- sources. “We must not eat our banquet alone,” he sald. “As ye receive, glve. The call to stewardship is not & call to go out and make money, nor to give our lives over to money getting. We must distribute the great resources God has placed in our hands to a lost people. The church {s ap- pointed to this task, to do the will of God in the distribution of his bounty, as stewards."” Director Newell ‘Takes the Stand Evidence in Ballinger-Pinchot Con- troversy is Heard by Subcom- mittee of Senators.

Mr. Newell's testimony was expected to be largely corroborative of that given by his subordinate, Chief Engineer Davis, who was before the committee for two days last week, Mr. Davis took issue with Secretary Ballinger as to the accuracy of several statements he made in letters and public utterances. Mr. Davis denied that certain public lands withdrawn from entry under the Garfield administration had been restored on the recommenda- tion of the reclamation service as claimed by Mr. Ballinger.
