THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: JULY | DAY OF REST TOPICS| War is Reflected in Display of Fireworks For Sale for Fourth| T() WALTER MAYER Patriotic Sermons Are to Be Delivered by Many of the City's Pastors. WAS WILSON'S SUGGESTION In most of the Protestant churches of the city Sunday, either at morning or the evening services, the pastors will deliver sermons tnat will burn with patriotic fervor. Some time ago President Wilson suggested ihat the pastors of the churches throughout the United States set aside this Sun- day for talking patriotism. ' Gener- ally pastors have gotten in line with the president and have prepared such sermons. Rev. Mr. DeLarm, pastor of the First Baptist church, will go a little || beyond what has been suggested, and besides talking patriotism, at the evening services will discuss “The Administration’s Attitude to the Mexi- can Situation and the Moral Aspect of the European War,” However, the | topic of his sermon will be, “The Fu- ture of the American Republic.” Sunday Rev. T. J. Mackay, rector of All Saints’ church, will have rounded out twenty-five years of act- ive services in that church. A spe- cial anniversary service will be held and the choir has in preparation a grrogr:m of music, as follow gan Prelude—Andante in D Te Deum.in E... H Boprano 80lo—0 . Anthem—Holy, Holy, Almighty ‘ Postlude—Choral Song.

Fireworks are plentiful, dealers say, and while the variety is perhaps not as large as in former years, the small boy will be able to make life hideous as long as his po ketbook hclds out. Yesterday was the first big day of sales for the fireworks dealers. Most of the purchases were being made by children ranging from 6 to 12 years old, and the girls were almost as numerous as the boys. s The novelty which seems meeting widest sale is a pasteboard dread- naught about twelve inches long, and which is equipped to hold eight fire- crackers, all of which are exploded at once, with disastrous results to the ship. (gne of the newer ideas is a model airship, the largest size offered being seventy-five inches long, and which is inflated in the same manner as the ordinary hot-air balloon. These cost $1 each, and not many are in stock. The war is reflected in the nature of many of the fireworks and noise producers offered. A small cannon, modeled after the famous French seventy-five millimeter gun, will re- place the cap pistol in the hearts of many youngsters, The usual line of firecrackers, Rom- an candles, rockets, torpedoes, bal- loons, sparklers and other ‘devices is offered at prices about the same as last year. It is very difficult to obtain cannon crackers larger than the three and one-half-inch limit. Dealers say there is no longer much demand for the giant variety, prohibited by law. Blank cartridge pistols, dynamite caps and canes are also not prominent on the market, their use being prohibited by both state law and city ordinance. Perhaps the widest development during the year is in the way of cap pistols. Several varieties of automatic and repeating pistols are offered, in- cluding one modeled along the lines of the familiar automatic pistol, and which fires caps as fast as the owne of the toy can pull the trigger.

Khartum, Sudan, June 15.—The brilliant little campaign in Darfur which ended with the defeat by the British trops of Sultan Ali Dinar on May 22, will bring under British do- main about 160,000 square miles of territory inhabited by a population estimated at between 2,000,000 and 4,000,000. Descendants of the Sultan Mohammed have ruled in the country ¢ | for approximately 400 years. Until 1874 Darfur was entirely independent, but then it was conquered by the no- slave-dealer Zobeir Pasha, who carried on a savagely-cruel rule of terror over the natives under the nominal suzerainty of Egypt for ten ears until he was ousted by the fahdi. At that time Slatin Pasha, the Austrian-Egyptian, was the official representative of the Egyptian gov- ernment. When the Anglo-British forces later subdued the Mahdi“and brought the Sudan back into Egyptian possession Sultan Ali Dinar, who had been con- fined for several years in one of the Mahdi's loathsome jails, was placed on the throne and he governed his people with all the savagery of an uncivilized estatern potentate, at the same time maintaining friendly rela- tions with the Anglo-Egyptian au- _ | thorities at Cairo, Bull of Bulls, The “Bull of Bulls,” which is one of the titles of the sultan of Darfur, ap- parently thought the time had come «|when the world war broke out to display his strength, and he gathered a considerable army of tribesmen on the frontier of his territory with the intention, it was understood, of ad- vancing on Egypt, which he had heard was weakly defended and at his mercy. This assemblage of warriors soon came to the notice of the Anglo- Egyptian staff, and a mobile column was immediately organized to meet any advance. The British officer in command eventually came to the con- clusion, when he discovered how well- armed the native forces were, that it would be advisable to strike the first blow. The British column thereupon took the offensive with the result that the natives were put to flight after a severe engagement in which they lost thousands of killed and wounded. A fighting aeroplane took part in the engagement and afterwards scattered the fugitives fleeing with their sultan to the hills. . Considerable discussion is proceed- ing here as to the future government of Darfur, in which subject the French also are interested, as the ter- ritory adjoins their Sudanese posses- sions. The prevalent idea is that a British resident will be appointed and that a member of the former ruling family may be placed on the throne as_nominal ruler. Y Most of the inhabitants of Darfur are of mixed Arab and negro race, but there are numerous pure Arabs and pure negroes and a liberal in- fusion of tribesmen from other parts of Africa. Many of the people are quite peaceful camel and cattle own- ers and there is considerable com- mercial intercourse between them and the immediately adjacent countries. Three Motor Cars Stolen By Busy Auto Thieves Automobile thieves made a busy night of it. Louis Henderson, 4225 South Twenty-fifth street, lost an Apperson Jackrabbit, parked at Six- teenth and Chicago streets. The Hugh Murphy Construction company had a Ford stolen from Seventeenth and Farnam, and C. J. Hall of Cam- bridge, Neb., reported the loss of a Ford from Seventeenth and Douglas.

FAREWELL SAID Influential Citizen of Mnnflnr Guest at Banquet to Retiring Secretary. ON WAY TO PHILIPPINES Theodore Yangco, wealthy and in- fluential citizen of the Philippines, was a guest of honor at a farewell dinner tendered to Walter Mayer, re- tiring business secretary of the Omaha Young Men’s Christian asso- ciation, who will accompany Mr. Yangco on his return home to take up his duties as general secretary of the three Manila branches of the as- sociation. About 100 men braved the stifling heat to greét Mr. Yangco and to say goodbye to Mr. Mayer. Mr. Yangco said: “Before this I have always taken my vacations in Europe. This time I intended to stay in the United States for one month, and I have stayed six. We al- ways had an idea of the peopie of America as a nation of money chas- ers, but I have found them very in- teresting. It is the people of Amer- ica that symbolize its greatness, not its skyscrapers and factories.” He told of the commencement of the Young Men’s Christian associa- tion work among the natives in Manila. As one of the leading men of the islands he was approached to help raise a fund of $40,000 in two months to start the work. He doubted whether it could be done in less than two years, but to his surprise the peo- ple were anxious to see the work done and $50,000 was raised in four days. One of the contributors was the no- torious rebel chief, Aguinaldo, who gave a check for $25 from a small in- come. W. A. Tener, former general secre- tary at Manila, who did much of the organization work, also spoke, saying that the association was fortunate in getting a \man so well equipped as Mr. Mayer to take over the work.

THIAUMONT WORK IS TAKEN London, July 1.—Successes for the entente allies on the three most important European fronts, in France, in the Italian theater and in East Galicia, are chronicled in the latest official communications. The French and British continue their raids against the Germans in France, the French having captured the Thiaumont works northeast of Verdun and the British having kept up their bombardments of German trenches and their incursions into German positions by raiding parties. The Russians lave taken Kolomea, an important railway junction leading to Lemberg, in Galicia, and the Ital- ians continue to advance against the Austrians in the Trentino region. Struggle Is Severe. The struggle for the possession of the Thiaumont work, taken by the German crown prince’s forces from the French a week ago, was most severe, the position changing hands several times, ' Violent bombardments have marked the fighting on the remainder of the front around Verdun, particularly on . the sector of Hill 304. 5 The British are keeping up their tactics of destroying by artillery fire German first and second line trenches from Ypres to the Somme. Unoffi- cially it is reported that the British are expending more than a million shiells a day in this work. In addition to the capture of Ko- | lomea, the Russians also have taken the town of Obertine, northeast of Kolomea, and several other villages north and south of that point. On_the front in Russia, from the Galician border to the region of Riga, there have been battles at various points, but with no decisive results.
