LINCOLN, Oect. 17.—(Special)—There was no good ground for an Antelope county jury to award $3,000 damages to Charles Deupree against 8. D. Thornton, Jr.; Nels Lindquist, O. J. Goldsmith, J. T. Fletcher and Z. T. Hicks, the supreme court held yesterdsy in reversing and dismissing the case. The parties in the suit reside near Or- chard, where Deupree operated a board- ing house and hotel. The defendants were accused by the plaintiff of libelling him by printing and circulating a notice to Deupree in which it was stated he was running a house of ill fame, coupled with the demand he leave town | na few days. Deupree claimed that as a result he was forced to go out of business. In a former decision the hign court had reoffirmed the judgment for damages, but a rehearing was allowed and the supreme bench concludes it erred. The present opinion by Judge Sedgwiock says there 18 no reasonable doubt that the place had a bad reputation and was used for im- moral purposes. The high court in a case from York also lays down the important rule that fifteen days must elapse between the pub- lication of notice and hearing in the pro- bate of a bill. In the case at bar the hearing followed closely after the publica- tion of notice. The supreme court re- verses it. .

He Would Prevent Bank Co_nsolida.tion (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Oct. 16.—(Special.)—Secretary E. R. Royse of the State Banking board will propose a law before the next legis- lature to prevent the consolidation of state and national banks. The recent merger of a state and national bank in Omaha rubbed the fur of the banking board the wrong way and Royse's pro- posal is the result. The banking secretary would also have @ law passed permitting the levying of an assessment on deposits taken over by &, state bank from any national institu- tion for the benefit of the state guaranty fund.

Miss Lathrop Think| Text, I Peter lil:is—"Be ready slwaye PROPOSED FOR SUPERINTENDENT | the | Ing on the tople, “Hope."” He said to give an answer to every one that asketh thee a reason for the hope that is within thee.” | One of the most bsautiful and Inspiring poems ever written in the English lan- | guage was upon the pleasures of hope, a verse of which is as follows Cease every joy to glimmer on my mind, But leave, O leave the light of hope behind; What though my bright hours have been | Like angels visits, fow and far between Their musing moods shall every pang appease, And charm when pleasures lose thelr power to appease. The fact is that hope seems to apring eternal in the human breast Bx-Commissioner of Pensions Ware, who wrote under the nom de plume of “Iron Quill,” in his famous poem entitled ““The Washer-Woman's Song,"” said: In every humble cot, In a rather quiet spot, In the suds and iIn the soap, worked a woman full of hope; 'Working, singing, all alone, In a wort of undertone, With & Saviour for a friend who will keep her to the end. "Tis & song 1 do not aing, for 1 acarce be- lieve a thing Of the storles which are told of the miracles of old; Yet I know that her belief is an anedyne . to grief, Yet the woman has a Friend who will keep her to the end; And 1 would not wish to strip, from that washer-woman'a 1p, Any song that she might sing, Or any hope that ”ni' might bring; For her Saviour is a Friend Who will keep her to the end. Hven he was compelled to confess that she had a Saviour and a friend of whom he knew absolutely nothing. The fact s, there is only one hope—the Christian's hope. There is Bat One Hope. When Sir Walter Scott was dying he said to his son-in-law: “Bring me the book." “What book?" he' sald. “There 18 but one book; bring me the Bible!" 5 And they brought in the Bible. There is but one hope that can cheer us when life's hours are darkest, whether on the battlefield or in the quiet of our homes surrounded by loved ones. There is but one hope that can stand by us in our helplessness, and that is the Christian hope. The longing in the human heart today is for comfort and peace. Riches, power, position, in themselves or combined, will not give this. There are broken hearts one place as well as another. There are sorrows among the rich as well as the poor. People in the palace sigh for the touch of hands that have turn to dust as well as those in the hovel groan for the sight of faces which they will never behold again. I cannot define my hope, neither can 1 define yours, but T know I have it. I feel like the old satnt when the minister asked him to stand ang tell the people of the hope and peace in his heart, he | leaped to his feet and said: “It i{s not given to a poor sinner lke me to tell in a lifetime all that God does for my soul in one day." It was Christmas eve in Baltimore. The streets were thronged with shop- pers and sight-seers, and in front of a toy store stood a little boy and girl, with the marks of poverty plainly vis- ible, shivering in the winter's blast. People turneq and looked and they saw that the little girl was blind and they sald to the little boy: “Little boy, what are you doing out here in this bitter cold night with that lttle blind girl?"* He sald: ‘‘She is my sister and our mamma is poor. Bhe has to wash for her money. She hadn't any money to buy us Christmas presents and she told me that I could bring sister eut ag® W her of the pretty things that are in the windows, ang that would have to do. They led them iIn, filled their arms with gifts. They staggered home in childish glee and lald at the feet of their mother the gifts of tender hearts. Out of the conucopia of heaven God has poured into our arms and hearts and laps the blesings we have enjoyed, and some of you have not grace enough to be grateful and to acknowledge their source, and T hope and pray that God will send you out of here with your hearts filled with gratification and love for Him as never before. The world thinks we have no reason for this hope. That is not so. But I want to tell you—I want to show you a few reasons why I have it, and I hope it might beget a corresponding desire in your heart. Pleasures Wil} Never Satisfy. In the first place it is & reasonable hope. I look around about me and find everything provided for my body, but nothing for my soul. Light for my eyes, sound for my ears, air for my lungs, but I find nothing for my soul. The world Is going mad today looking for peace of soul, If the present rate of insanity increases with the presont in- crease of population, in 50 years there won't be a gane man In America. Ah! They are looking for roses on the cheeks of dealp . they are looking for fruit beneath the snows and ice of the Klon- dyke. Take wealth—does it satisfy? No. You never saw a man's heart as dead and hard and penurious as to be satisfled with the clanking of gold, did you? No. Don't pleasures satisfy? No! I have stood on the streets of Chicago before the theaters, and seen beautifully gowned women pass by me, dressed in the helght of fashion, searching for peace through pleasures, They have worn tiaras and sunbursts and stomachers of diamonds; they have “Game dinners,”” mostly duck, are the rage this season. Wilg game is more |abundant than for many years, GIRLS GIVE UP DANCING AND CARD PLAYING | Miss Frances Miller of party jumped over the Sunday chairs and went through other nimble gymnastics yester- day afternoon with the girls of the Cen- tral, Commercial and South Side High schools at the First Methodist church, It was a meeting called for the purpose of organizing Bible classes In these | schools to continue after the Sunday cam- |paign and to be governed council. The meeting was preceded by wome galety, including playing that old game, “Going to Jerusalem,” in which Miss Miller jolned with the spirit that has made her a great favorite among the girls and women with whom she has worked About 300 girls were present and the classes were organised. Besides this, more than half of the girls took pledges to give up dancing and card playing. I by a joint Apartments, flats, houses and cottagex can be rented quickly and cheaply by a Bee "“For Rent.” come in the finest of automobiles, with retinues of servants and attendants. De- tectives would be in front and after them to protect their jewels. After the play they would go to the restaurants, and ordering the cholcest of viands and foods they would gormandize until their appetites were satisfied. Then going home, they would be met with serv- ants and taken to thelr bed chambers, jand put to bed by attendants. Lying in silks and choicest of clothes, they would cry for peace and rest. Can pleasures satisfy? No, never! Lord Byron erled out: Pill again the golden goblet, I'll drink #t ry, My a.él are like a yellow leaf; the canker a the are mine alone. I've had my will; I've tasted every pleas- ure, And drank my fill of the measure O the liave- of life are bitter; give me rest. But itke a fool T drank it dry, Love has passed me by, O the leaves of life are bitter, let me die! God forbid that wnen your eyes to earth’s glories grow dim, you will have lived such a life that that would be a fit- ting epitaph for your tombstone. No, pleasures don't do it. ¥ e Does Not isfy Men, Fame? No. Bleot & man constable and THE BEE: OMAHA “Billy" Sunday preached Sunday morn- . he wants to be a sheriff {ONDAY, Be Ready Always to Give Reason For the Hopc that Is Within You Make him sheriff and he wants to be a congress. man.

Make hMm that and he wants to be president Make him president once and he wants to be president twice. Make him president twice and he says he wants to me presi dent a third time. No, fame does not satisfy The most magnificent example of the utter futility of fame that I can find is that of Lord Clive. The treatment of Ad- miral Dewey after the battle of Manila pales Into insignificance beside the fate of General Clive. His father wrote him and sald: “Son, hurry home; the nation is iIn transports of joy over your success.' Clive returned to England and Parlia- ment elevated him to a peerame and gave him an annuity to £2:0,00 sterling and gave him a vast old feudal estate. Whenever General Clive woumld appear on the streets business wdl¥ld suspend and they would all rush and stand with uncovered heads to do him honor, and yet, with an endless stream of gold flow- ing into his pockets from the exchequer | of England and with the applause of the | people ringing In his ears, he olimbed into the garret, scized a pistol and sent a bullet through his brain. Fame? No, sir; fame won't satisty. Fame won't feed your soul. Personal charms will never win. No, sir. And yet how many think that's all there 1a! Lady Hamilton's charms and beauty were proverblal. Lady aHmilton's smile and charms did for Nelson what guns of Mrance could not do. She nearly wrecked two forelgn dynasties of Burope by her smiles and charms. Hapsburg in Austria and Italy! Ah, but time rolled on and the old satanic driver whipped up his demoniac charges of habit, and with their iron hoofs they cut their telltale marks upon her fore- head, her checks and her chin, and the blossoming almond tree was turned iInto the snowdrifta of despair and the ssor- plons of passion held post mortems over her rotting remains. Years afterward a wonian walked Into & butcher shop In Calla, France, to buy a plece of meat for her dog, anl the butcher’s wife sald to her: “You look Mke a kind-hearted woman who would be glad of the opport inity to purchase and give a woman to eat for herself any piice of meat you might consider goo@ enough only for vour do There is a woman upstairs dying n poverty, who would be thankful for ft " And the woman dying there was Lady Hamilton, at whose feet kings and duices earls and princes had bowed. They had fought for her smile. Her smile meant success. Her frown meant defer’. 0, no, personal charms won't do it Hope Will Still Be Far Away. When the poet Shiller was u boy he would gaze at his native mountaina and wonder at their beauty. One day he sald: “Mamma, come here ‘uick' lonk at those mountains. Some day when I grow old I will climb to the top and knock at the door of heaven, and when the angel opens I will peek In. Schiller became a man. He climbed to the top, and torn, bleeding and thirsty, he reached the top. e gazed at the heaven above him, and heaven was just as far away as possible. You can climb the ladder of fame, drink of the springs of pleasure, amass and plle you wealth like King Coresus, and after you have climbed to the great- est height I want to te!l you that the hope that youyr soul reaches after will be just as far away as ever., ’ “What will it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul?"" A few years ago the astronomers thought they knew where they could dis- cover a new star, and the great tele- wscope of Yerkes observatory was used. They turned the lens of this ponderous telescope upon the fro ntier of the uni- verse and caught a faint giimpse of the new planet. And w hen I take this old book I look beyond wealth and p leasure and fame and get a glimpse of heaven itself. I shall be satisfied when I gave on His likeness. “He ready to give an answer to every one that asketh thee; a reason for the hope that is witnin thee.” You take the opinion of a man on a subject when he has s pent a lifetime in studying this subject. You take an opinion on law from a lawyer and not from a blacksmith. Pou go to a doctor for advice on medieine. If I can do this I ought to take what God says, rather than what some p reacher or some blatant, whisky-soaked skeptic says. When you 4 le you send for the p reacher and not some drunken skeptic. Do t About Eternity. to give an answer to everyone that seeketh three, a reason for the hope that is within thee." You cannot tell by church membership, The saddest day a lot of people will ever see will be the day when the trumpet of Gabriel will sound and they will stand before God and He will say, "“Depart, I never knew you.” Although your name is on the record. You Trust Men, Why Not Gedt There are some fellows who think they are on the way to hell when they are so close to heaven they can almost hear the angels sing. And there are some who think they are going to heaven who are 80 near to hell they can almost smell the sulphur fumes. In business you readily take the word of a man who has had years of experi- ence. Some years ago an insurance agent wrote to me that my premium must be paid by a certain date. I wrote him and asked him to pay it and leave the receipt for me to take up wheén I came back. He wrote me that he had done so. When I appeared to take up the receipt, they said: ‘‘“Well, you must have had faith in your friend considering how much depended on it." I said: “Certainly I had faith in him, He wrote me that he had paid it and I never worried or thought anything more about ft. it 1 had faith in the word of an insur- ance agent ought I not have faith jn the word of God? Twenty-nine years ago I Ceposited my all, my manhood and everything that I owned, to Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and I've won: And you can't tell by God's dealings with you, can you? No; you certainly cannot, 1 cannot understand it now, but when God has taken the smoky film from my eyes | shall know it all. “These things are written that ye might belleve that Jesus s the Christ.” Say! I dldn’t pray? “Save me at last for Jesus' sake.” 1'm saved now and I've made no provision for a relapse. Spurgeun eaid he called on a little girl who had been (Il for months. She looked OCTOBER 18, 191 up and sald: “Mr. Spurgeon. I wonder Why It Is that God lets me suffer so." And he sald, “Honey, I've wondered the same thing. You are going to be with God and 1 wish you would ask Jesus Christ why e let you stay and suffer.” Bible Records it AllL | Don't let any infidel ridicule you out of | your faith, That's just what Hob Inger- | #oll tried to do.

I heard of a man in London who was prominent in business, but who drank. He was engaged and his father heard of it. The father went to the parents of the girl and asked them to help break up the engagement. The young lady declared she loved the young man and viceversa.

Drexel and Mrs. Droxel will take the party out for an auto ride over the eity. Madam Gadski dldn't have much to say about “Billy" Sunday. She had heard of him as an evangelist, and naturally supposed that he was doing much good. Her daughter, however, had something to say. “I suppose he does a great amount of good In a certain way, but when he at tacks the theator and includes everyone ne matter what their apeciaity, he makes & big mistake. I am sure that here in Omaha there are many thousands who do not belleve that there is anything harmful in attefling a musioal concert, or some other similar form of enter- talnment. Other great personages do not apeak so harshly. However, I am sure that Mr. Sunday has not been under- stood correctly. I think he draws a line somewhere. Anyway, I hope he comes to the concert, for 1 am sure that he will go away highly ploased.” The “Billy"” Sunday party will occupy a box Monday night, as guests of Man- ager Charles Franke, “Pa" and ‘Ma™ Sunday will not be on hand, however, because they are booked for an engage- ment at Sedalla, Mo.
