THE OMAHA DAILY IJEE : THURSDAY , FEBRUARY 28 , 1R03 ,
JEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Member of the Oity Council Payi His Ec-
spectj to John W , Paul.
ASKED TO SHOW SOME SIGN OF FAITH
If i : l < ! riiro of flood Intention In Afforded 1
tlia IinjiroTcniriit * I'rnpojeil fur
North Twentieth Street May He
Tut Throiicli lu Tune.
Some of the members of the city council
think that the Issue l-twccn them and John
W I'aul as to paring North Twentieth
street is not fully understood by the public * .
They do not wish to be looked upon a *
standing in the way of any Improvement that
would tend to the aclvantape of Council
lilntTs , but hare allowed the matter to hang
lire In order that Mr. Paul might have time-
in which to show that he really ineiint busi
ness and was not seeking to have the street
jiavod merely In onli'r to endanec the value
o'his real estate in the northwestern part
of the city
"The statement that Mr. Paul has agreed
to pave the street from Avenue G to the
levee , if the city will order the paving done
from llroadway to Avenue G and assess the
cost up to the Drupcrty owners , is not cor
rect , " said Councilman Smith yesterday.
4 He may have made some such promise on
the outside in a general \vny. but the round )
1ms never s"cn anything of th" klml'la write-
ins , "I" ' the petition ivhl'-h was jirv-
stntcJl about three inotitlu aeo ask
ing that the street l > 3 | Kived is
entirely silent on the subject. -icU-sn >
the cust of pavinir. cut bun ? anil sewer on
that part of the stwt between Broadway
nnd avenue G , would amount to won- than
the abbuttlng property would sell f' > r. and
what Is to hinder him from tutting hi * lots
go foi taxes after wo have put In the 1m-
jirovraients ? It is his propi'rtj In the ex
treme northwestern part of the rity that he
expects to be most benefited by the paring ,
and he mig-htlx : willing to let go of all the lots
fronting on Twentieth street if b > sodoin/
ho could have thn entire street paved.
"The cost of the intersectious alone.which
the city would have to pay , between lircnd-
ivay nnd Avenue G , would bo t .biO , accord
ing to the estimate of the city engineer.
That is a large amount to lay out for the
benefit of a single property owner. If Mr.
Paul would lay a brick , or show a contract
with some manufacturing enterprise , or in
any other way com Ince us that ho was going
lo do something for the good of the city in
stead of selling out his privileges to an out-
ider , us he did a few years ago. most of the
objections would bo removed , and wo should ,
In all probability , goon with the work as he
wants us to. "
TllKii : CONVENTIONS TODAY.
Political I rtlr AVHI I'tit Thrlr City Tickets
In the 1'lt I < 1.
* Today promises to be an interesting one
from a political standpoint , us three conven
tions will be held between the hours of 2
o'clock p , m und 10. The conventions are of
considerably moro than ordinary interest ,
for it is likely that resolutions will bo pre
sented to ono or more of them on the subject
of the dilllculty with the motor company ,
with n view to putting the members of thn
party , and especially the men whom they
choose as candidates , on record u | > on that
all-absorbing question.
The opinion seems to prevail that It is
upon that line that the battle will be fought
this spring , and that the voters will insist
UK | > n knowing how the candidates stand be
fore casting their ballots.
The republicans will open the ball this af
ternoon at 2 o'clock at the superior court room
and choose a candidate for councilman at
large and a candidate for park commissioner.
The democrats will hold their convention
nt 8 o'clock in the evening at the same
'place , nnd while they are transacting their
business the populists will meet at their
headquarters , 1ft Main street , and place in
nomination their candidates. With three
tickets in the field the contest promises to be
a lively one.

BISHOP WORTHINGTON ENJOINS A . DUTY
Churchmen Should Aiteml Servlee * with Itc-
cejitlvu Heart * The Mlnloiicr IHi-

.Scrrlrcn Noon Meetlnc * .
The mission at Trinity cathedral , in which
all the Episcopal churches of the city will
co-operate , was Inaugurated last evening by
the reception by Bishop Worthtngton of the
herald sent to teach the Word. Interest in
the mission has been on the increase , and it
culminated last evening by a large audience
of church people. The services were dccid-
edlj novel , as well as instructive , as bun-
eds in the congregation had their first ex
perience in the "oiucc of the benediction of a
missioner. "
After a short service of prayer and song
and the reading of the epistles by Canon
Whitmarsh. Dean Gardner , addressing the
bishop , said :
-Hight reverend father in God , I present
unto Thee this person , who desires mission
and benediction for the work of an evangelist
in this our city and cathedral.1
Bishop Worthington Let the mandate of
his appointment be rcau.
Dean Gardner then reaJ as follows :
IteeeltltiK the Mktpluner.
. "I , George , by Divine iKjrrnissIon bishou of
Nebraska , having duly questioned Algernon
S. Crapscy. priest , \\ho is desirous of devot-
intr himself to the work of preaching and
teachlnir the word of God. and havinir satis
fied mj - > elf of his soundness of doctrine ,
godliness of life and sufficiency of knowl
edge and wal in the work of the ministry ,
hereby appoint and authorize him to labor
i for the furthcrence of the gospel in this our
] city and cathedral. "
I Then the bishop addressed the candidate
( as follows-
I -Dost thou in the sight of God nnd this
I congregation accept this appointment to
i labor in this our city and cathedral ? "
Mibsioncr Idol
Bishop Dost thou promise steadfastness ,
'aithfulne.ss and zeal for souls therein ?
Missiouer 1 do so promise , the Lord being
: ny heli > cr.-
Bishop The Lord be with you , and with
thy spirit. Let us pray. Almighty God ,
who didst send Thy only begotten son into
the world for the redemption of mankind ,
and that the gosiiel of His kingdom might
; je made known through the in-caching of
[ Us apostles , send , we pray Thee , Thy Holy
Spirit upon this , Thy servant , whom Thou
hast called to labor in Thy vineyard.
Anoint him to preach the gospel to the poor ,
send him to heal the broken hearted , to
[ ireach delivcreuce to the captives and re
-every of sisrht to the blind , to set at liberty
them that are bruised , and to preach the
acceptable year of the Lord , and grant that
lie may follow after righteousness , godli
ness , faith , love and meekness through
Jesus Christ , our Lora. Grant. O Lord , to
this Thv servant , aptness to teach und to
these. Thy people , willingness to learn Thy
blessed \\Ill. that the hearts ot the disobe
dient may bo turned to the wisdom of the
just and we be an acceptable people In Thy
siiht. Through Jesus Christ , our Lord.
After the singing of a hymn Bishop
Worthington preached a short sermon out
lining the work to bs done during the con
tinuance of the mi.isioa ana what would be
expected from chuivh ] > eople. His text was
taken from Eira x , 4 : "Arise for this mat
ter belonging unto thee. "
lllslioj ) U'orthlngtuii'K Kxhortiitlnn.
Ezra , " saW the bishop , "had been sent ,
much like the present missiouer , to tell people
ple of their sins , of their riol-ition of the
law of God. He had exhorted them to re
pentance , he had spoken to them collectively
anil as a congregation to arise and go to their
Father. While Ezra was one of the earliest
of the missioners.o have through the
providence of God been sent a messenger to
exhort us , to point out the way that leudeth
toward heaven. He is to unfold to us the
whole counsel of God during these services.
Hecognlzc , I beseech you , the character of
the person who has coma to us as a mis
sioner. He is come to lift you up from your
dead selves to the heart of God. If you
thus recognize the mission and the missioner.
If you are as you have been exhorted , then
will bo an outpouring of the divine spirit
such as this city has not seen ; a blessing
will be given us that we will not have room
to receive It. Those who are careless will
arouse themselves , those who are penitent
will hear the words of tenderness and love ,
and all hindrances will be removed from the
pathway that leads toward holiness.
' When the herald whom God has sent is
speaking to us it is the duty of every one to
trim the search lights within , and , after
duo confession is made , to cry aloud for
mercy and forgiveness. And this person
ality that characterizes our work is not con
fined to the primary character of the work ,
bat to other obligations which are placed
ujion us. It is our duty to bring under the
influence of the gospel those persons who
are yet outside the fold. You are your
brothers' keeper. You are asked , then , to
go out into the highways and search for
those who do not know the sweet , sad story
of old.
"Therefore , let me exhort you earnestly
to individual endeavor toward perfect holl-
ncsss in this mission which is now inau
gurated. Heallze the personal obligation ,
the individual duty placed upon you and your
faithful attendance upon'theso services. If
you do it cannot fail to have an effect UKn ]
your neighbor , and we will in this way do
the duty we owe to God and this mission.
Whether this mission shall bo a blessing to
this church , city and diocese depends not
wholly upon the missioner , faithful as he
may be , but it depends upon the church people
ple of this city , upon you and those belong
ing to you. Realize that you are here not as
critics upon these services but are sinners
who have come to hear a message from God. "
Then , turning to Mr. Crapsey , the bishop
said :
"I hoi > e , dear brother , you will have cour
age to tell these people of their sins. Tell
them of the holiness of Gotlj bid them repent
lest it be too late. I give you my blessing. "
i\palnlr.r ! the Mission.
Mr. Crapsey , although he had preached
five sermons to the clergy during the daj ,
told the congregation \\hat his idea of u
mission wus He had been asked to come to
Omaha to preach a mission. The main thing
to be guarded against was overcoundenco
in himself. Was It possible for a man by
himself to save a single soul 1
On his way here from the east he had
gone through the Saruia tunnel under the
St. Clair river. How was it ] K > ssiblo for man
to bore through the earth like that ? The
engineer had studied the matter , brought
the forces of nature to his aid and directed
the men who did the work. By himself ,
with one pair of hands , ho could not have
done it. So the missioner could not ot him
self save any one. He would have to bring
God to direct his aid , and then he would
work.
One of the main objects of the mission was
instruction in Christian doctrine. To this
cud one service a day , at 10I0 : ! a. ui. , had
been set apart during the mission , and he
cxj > ected during the twelve days that it
lasted to go over the main points in the
realm of Christian doctrine.
Ho appealed earnestly to the members of
the congregation to lend him their assistance
in making the mission a success , and he felt
sure that if they did so God would make the
mission a blessing to Omaha.
This closed the reception of the missioner.
and Dean Gardner announced that the noon
day services for business men would com
mence Friday noon in the New York Life
building.

The songs and games combine instruction
with pleasure in so charming a manner as
makes one wonder why more parents do not
avail themselves of thi * privilege of putting
their children under such excellent in
fluences. Yesterday's exercises were in the
main only such as characterize the cveri
ilay work of the kindei-gnrlcn , rather than
any holidav attempt to-'sbow off the children
It is astonishing what teoble and misshapen
conceptions arc held concerning the work
being done by the kindergarten. Such op-
[ nrtunities to get truer ideas of the work
are ver.v helpful , therefore , as well as enjo.\ -
able. Visitors are always welcome , and
Mrs. Hardman. Miss Baldwin and assistants
are so enthusiastic in their work that they
gladly grant all information possible. It is
marvelous what development the children
gave in their ideas of color , form , figures ,
etc. , and the amount of general information
concerning natural history , morals aud bi
ography , while seemingly'at ' play.

The Union Veteran legion celebrated the
anniversary of Washington's birthday last
evening at their hall. A large audience
was present , composed largely of old soldiers
and their families. Every military organi
zation in the city was represented. An
interesting feature of the entertainment
was the presentation of three elegant steel
engravings to the encampment from General
G. M. DoJge , who still keeps a warm place
in his heart for the comrades of Council
Bluffs , and frequently takes an opportunity
of showing his regard by sending some sub
