President Gates of Iowa College prcache
fc strong sermon at the First Congregation :
church yesterday afternoon , In which he ai
Bertcd that a new era had dawned upon tti
world , an era In which the teachings <
Christ were to bo more closely followed , ru
only by the churches , but by all secular 01
ganlzatlons as well. His central thought we
that the church must either take the lea
or find Itself hopelessly lagging In the rca
Ho spoke from a text selected from Christ
ecrrntin on the mount ; "But seek ye first tl
kingdom of God. "
Ho alluded first to the popular rnlsappri
tension among church people that the klni
dom of God referred to some Indefinite , ui
denned territory , situated away from tl
earth. He combatted this Idea , and clalnu
that the kingdom of God should be consli
cred more as the kingship of God , and tin
It was a spiritual fact , a form ot existent
hero on earth. The- church , ho claimed , wt
not the kingdom of God. A great many churc
members admitted this , but a few did no
Church people who accepted this theory wei
hampered with too narrow views.
IGNORANT ABOUT EACH OTHER.
He wished Congregatlonaltsts knew moi
about the Methodists , and the Methodists at
Congregatlonallsts knew more about Presb ;
tertans. Ho wished Protestants knew mo
about Catholics , and that Catholics knc
more about Protestants. He spoke with fee
Ing In reference to the antagonism betwec
the Protestant and Cntholic churches. " 1
you believe that the Catholic church Is a
meannesa and narrowness ? " ho abkcd of h
hearers. "Why , the Catholic church was 1.1
only church the world had for 1,500 year
It you cut the Catholic church away fro
the world you will cut away three-quarte :
of the glories of Chitstlanlty. The Cathol
church had covered the whole woild wll
charity , It had made some mistakes. !
have the Protestants , but no organization (
earth Is today KO strong as the Roman Call
olio church. Dou you believe that God has i
use for It ? "
The speaker reiterated that the Cathol
church had made mistakes , but Protestun
could not cure these mistakes by dupllcatli
them. "VOU can't fight the devil with fl
and win. You must fight the devil \ > l
righteousness , or not at all. " There we
many signs ot better times between the Pro
ostants nnd Catholics. The ProtosU
churches , ho declared , were mere bable
only 400 years old , while the Catholic churc
wab 1,800 years old. Those years were fief
of bloody mistakes , but even John Calvl
who Is universally revered by the Protests
church , used to burn people at the stal
for not believing as he did. The forcfathe
of the Congregational church , who settled
Massachusetts not BOcry many years n
In the history of the world , burned womi
and hanged them because they were su
pec'ted of being witches. The Protestan
should not charge up everything where
ought not to be charged. They should n
think too highly of themselves , and shon
confess tome of their own sins before tli
looked around for things with which to a
cuso others.
LESSON FROM PARKHURST.
Dr. Gates devoted a large part of his dl
course to the recent political overthrow
Tammany In New York City , He said th
six months ago n minister stated to an 1
tclllgent audience that lie believed many p :
plo would live long enough to witness the n
complishmcnt of the great reform In N <
York City preached by Dr. Parkhursl. Th
congregation thought the speaker was makl
an extravagant assertion , and yet In less th
six months that most disreputable organlz
tlon In the country had been overthrow
When Dr , Parkhurst began his work t
religious newspapers nnd the pulpits co
demned his extreme utterances becauseth
might bring the pulpit Into disrepute. The
gingerly religious editors wanted the grc
reform to come by gradual process of evol
tlon , and Tammany said amen. But I
Parkhurst made his charges and went psrso
ally Into tha places of sin nnd secured 1
evidence. Ho horrified the prfachors a
Tammany , but ho touched the conscience
the people , and Tamamny was overthrow
and now , when he did not need It , all t
world was at his feet offering asslstnn
Now , why should not every minister ot Gi
whether on Manhattan Island , In Nebrasl
In the United States or In the world , be
Incarnate Parkhursl ? The church must me
In the direction of the new era. The nev
papers , the magazines , the political sclen
organizations , were all discussing and c
mandlng the new reform. "It Is comliu
said the preacher. "The people realize tl
they have been playing at nation making
this country long enough. They are gal
to begin housekeeping right. If the chur
does not take up Uo work and assume t
leadership , If It does not commence to do I
public morality what It has done for prlvt
morality , U will find ItseU In the rear and
may take It centuries to catch up again. "
PERMANENT ART EXHIBIT.
Lccal A aooi tlun 1'roposeA to Keep n (11
lory Constantly OIMMI.
The sixth annual exhibition ot the WcstE
Art association closed yesterday and the 1 :
day of the exhibit was favored by a gratl
Ing attendance of the Oniatia public , will
has failed to patronize the exhibition as
should. While the association has been
a great amount of pains and expense to
up the upper floor of the library building
Its purpose and has filled the galleries w
a more than creditable array ot artls
effects , the results have not been wholly B
Istactory to the association. Something 1
than $1,000 was expended In fitting up i
building and the entire receipts during I
six weeks that the exhibition has been oj
have not amounted to more than halt tl
sum. At first It was thought that the prc
urn of , politics had something to do with kc
Ing the people away , and the exhibition \
prolonged for a longer period than \
originally Intended , But even after theca
palgn was over the galleries were but pee
patronized , and , except on Sundays , scare
a dozen visitors were present at a time.
In view of these facts It would not hi
been surprising If the * members ot the as
elation who have labored so diligently
bring together tuch a creditable collect
should retire disappointed , but It will bi
pleasure to those who possess sufficient
theartist's spirit to appreciate their c-ffc
to know that the exhibition will be contlm
\ as a permanent fixture , notwithstanding
chill which has greeted the preliminary CM
billon.
It had been the Intention ot the rnanag
to follow the exhibition with an eastern
hlblt , which \\as to be collected with
proceeds of 'the drat exhibition. Since
association , BO far from reaping any flnani
benefit , will bo obliged to go down Into
pocket to make up considerable deficiency
Is not llkoly that tlie permanent exhibit i
atipretent consist of much more than w
the eastern dealers and ariUts are dlspo
to contribute on their Individual responsl
Uy. With a very little encoragement on
part of the local public th * association wo
have been enabled to organize a perman
exhibit ot pro-eminent merit , but a It
only two or three Kallfrks will be hung
present. In time It li hoped that the ai
elation will be able to add to these until
shall have reached the limit of Its orlgl
intentions.
The pictures owned by local people will
taken down this morning mid the gallei

This country is off this year. Democrats are
republicans , republicans are populists and populists
are democrats. The golcjbugs are after silver and
the silverites are after gold.
The Nebraska is oil , too couldn't figure out
such a possible demand for overcoats , as made upon
us recently. The fashion is "off"a slouchy.fitting-
long , loose , blankety overcoat is the fad of fashion
this year. Even short people sigh for long over
coats.
All of our overcoats are long. Matters not
what quality or price , they're all long. Even our
Two-Seventy-Fivc coats are made according to this
season's length. Our _ FiyeDollar overcoats are as
close to the fashion piate as any stylish garment
you've seen so far. J5ix Seventy- Five , Ten-Fifty.
Fifteen Dollars , Seventeen , and up to Twenty-One
Fifty they're all long and stylish , best of fabrics ,
most serviceable of linings and handsomely draped.
But our prices are only "short" features about
our coats. In one of our windows you can see
some of our Five Dollar overcoats. Tell you what
it is like : A patent all-wool beaver , lined with cas-
simere , velvet collar , made up clean , silk stitching
all over. It is by heavy odds the best $10,00 article
over retailed by man. Side by side you see some
of our Five-fifty long , warm and storm protecting
ulsters , of several different cloths and as many
colors. That will also put a surprising smi'e on your
face , because you know others charge you for one
like it at least $10.00. By the time you see other
prices you'll know why we are the acknowledged
money-savers of this country ,
Here is an additional sacrifice : We have a few
styles of shorter than usual gauge of overcoats , that
formerly retailed at from $17.50 to $25.00. Are to
be cleaned out this week at Fifteen Dollars. They're
clean , brand new stock , but the sizes are 34 , 35 , 36.
Nothing larger. Truthful advertising demands that
you shall know it. We never misrepresent.
