Onq of the most pleasant functions jjfven
by tho local Youns Men's Christian assocla.
tlon was the banquet given Thursday even
ing by tho boanl of directors to the min
isters o( the city and the, chairmen of com
mittees In honor of Krud II. Smith of New
York, International secretary of the society
In charge of religious work.
Mr. Smith arrived In Omaha Thursday
evening nnd will remain until after Sun
day, holding a meeting with the members
of the association this evening, and will
hold a men's meeting, open to the public,
at Washington hall, Sunday afternoon,
Isaac V. Carpenter, chairman of the
board of directors, presided at the banquet
and at tho conclusion of the feast mallo a
short address, In which he dwelt upon the
dimciilty, but great necessity, of personal
religious effort In the society. Mr. Smith
Is hero to Increase this effort.
"Tho ItflllgloiiH Work of the Asoclatlnn
from tho Standpoint f the Hoard of Ill
rectors," whs the theino assigned Dr. W. 0.
Henry. In part ho said: "Tho first object
of tho association was tn make men Chris
tians. Today tho society has grown nlong
material lines so rapidly and extensively
that often It forgets Its prime object that
of developing Christian character In young
men. Tho board of directors should have
a high Ideal of the work. It Is not n club
or gymnasium, but Is vastly more. It Is
not u church, but It Is tho strong arm of
tho church to bring men to Christ. There
aro 20,000 young men In Omaha and I do
not bellovo that 20 per cent nltcrU church.
Tho culmination of our work should bo to
bring men to Christ."

"The Religious Work of tho Association
From tho Standpoint of tho State Commit
teo" was responded to by J. I'. Il.tlloy. statu
iccretnry. I In told ni visiting people In lhi
various parts of the state where ho baa
been micsllnncd an to tho work. Ho said
that In many cones bo rinds that tho gym-
nanlum Is more, prominent than tho rellg
lous work, and that the state committee
looks to tho association, to bring out more
prominently the religious work. Tho gym
naalum, tho boys' department, tho educa
tional department, . each has Its director
and tho speaker hoped to seo the day that
tho religious department will have Its spa
rial director.
Dr. A. O. Hirst spoke, on "Tho Ilollglous
Work From tho Standpoint of tho Church."
haying that nt his church ho was cnrrylng
on a campaign, for six Sunday evenings, to
Increase tho religious movement nmonK
young men. Tho departments In Omaha
sro well organized. Tho general secretary
Is well equipped for tho work. The best
method to reach young men Is by personal
contact.
Tho guest of the ovenlag, I'red II. Smith,
was then Introduced. Taking as his theme
the' religious work of the association, he
said In part: "If you will sum up all pom
leal questions discussed during tho last ten
years you win nnu mai mo rciigioux wunv
of the association Is moro Important than
all. If wo savo our young men to tho
church of God tho country Is safe. If thf
young men nro to bo alienated from tho
church of Christ the country Is doomed In
splto of all efforts to savo It.
Work niul Not n llollilnr.
"If you nro going to bo a worker In this
causo, you are not going on ii half holi
day. Tho worker among men must under
stand It Is going to hi? a long, tedious pull
ono that will Btraln overy effort of life.
Tho man that Is good In a long pull Is tho
man that wlnn In tho work among men.
Tho uncertain, wavering man never wins
a victory. Tho man who looks for a
Jubilee, n hurrah, n hallelujah, has no
place In the work. When you put n legiti
mate part of our llfo Into thn work thoro
can bo no questlont what tho result la
going to bo."
Mr. Smith tola of tho work now being
accomplished by tho Indian branch, the
railroad branch nnd tho army and nnvy
branch of tho association, and spoko of
tho extension of the work to tho prison
and reformatories. Ho prophesied great
things for tho organization and closed by
saying:
"Tomorrow night will be organization
night tho most Important, of all tho nlRhts
In the series of mcutlugs. Tonight we
talked of principles: tomorow night wo will
set tho stakes for the work, If you nre
going to seo a campaign organized In this
city, you must resolve that you will put
your own llfo Into It. In tho old days, with
small membership, tho association devoted
Itself, to religious work: Whon wo havo
grown to largo numbers, we must have
an organization within tho organization
, Otdeon's band, resolved to stand by the
rollglous work."
At tho closo of the address Secretary
Willis mado a short talk, npplylng tho
words of tho former speaker to local atTalrs

I. A. Harris of Uroken How, now serving
on tho fedpral grand Jury, was Introduced
the other day to a South Omaha business
man.
"Mr. Hani," said the man who pre
sented him, "Is ou tho grand Jury, so you'd
better behave yourself."
Then the conversation drifted Into other
channel and a few minutes later, when
the man from South Omaha found himself
nlono with tho man from llroken How, ho
asked- "Did he say you were on the granl
Jury?"
"Ves, 1 believe he did."
"Well, let's go and havo a cigar."
Then, after the man from Tacking Town
had showed his new friend how to' operate
the patent lighter, ho said: "I don't know
whether you know It or not, Mr. Harris,
but the fact of the matter Is there Is the
most graceless set of mountebanks on thdt
board that ever went unhung."
"Do you think so?" asked Mr. Harris,
manifesting an Interest.
"I know It. I've lived there for fifteen
years and I've "
Then followed a dissertation lasting
nearly a half hour, during which tho cars
of several persons In South Omaha must
havo tingled, nnd at Its closo Mr. Harris
said; 1
"I believe you're right. I've long sus
pected It, and I want to tell you that If I
get n chance at thoso fellows I'll turn tho
screws on them good nnd plenty."
Then the conference broke up and the
man from South Omaha still thinks he was
talking tn a member of the county grand
Jury.

Occasionally Mr. Anderson would step

He thinks he lives, but he's dead one.
No person is really alive whose livur is dead.
During the winter most people spend nearly
all their time in warm, stuffy houses or offi
ces or workshops. Many don't get as much
exercise as they ought, and everybody
knows that people gain weight in winter.
As a rule it is not sound weight, but means
a lot of flabby fat and useless, rotting mat
ter staying in the body when it ought to
be driven out. But the liver is over-burdened,
deadened stops work. There you are, with
a dead liver, and right now is the time for
resurrection. Wake up the dead! Get all the
filth out ot your system, and get ready for
the winter's trials with clean, clear blood,

City ortkalg are wondering what to do

sued. When the fltcal year 'commenced
In August there was an overlan and In order
to provide for this Indebtedness warrants
ere Issued against the tax levy of 1901.
Under the law such action Is Illegal and the
Ity officials aro personally liable on their
bonds for proceeding In such a manner.
When tho attention of Troasurer Kotioky
as culled to tho law he slated that he
ouldnot Issue a call for any of tho over
lap warrants until he had consulted his
ttorneys. While there Is now money
nough In the treasury, collected from the
1C01 tas, to warrant the Issuing of a call
for at least a portion of the outstanding
arrants, nothing nlong this line has been
done and probably will not be for some
time.
In case the treasurer Is advised to comply
strictly with the law, it will be necessary
for tho city to Issue general Indebted-
esa bonds to secure funds sufficient to take
P the overlap. As under the charter only
I per cent Interest can be paid on general
bonds It Is feared that Investors will not
take kindly to tho proposition. There Is
feeling nmong the people that the clt
Is now carrying all the bonded debt It can

matter to secure tho consent of the voters
to nn Issue of the kind contemplated.

An Informal meeting of the city council

chise nrdtnanco In order that tho rights of
tho city may bo fully protected, tinder
the pretent charter franchises run for only

bo paid to the city. Another feature of
tho charter Is the provision which permits
of a protest against tho granting of frnn
chlses. in caBe- n petition signed bv one-
fifth of tho voters of the city Is presented
o the council opposing the granting of any
frnnchlso tho municipal authorities cannot

Mr. Lambert expects to have thn ordi

meeting of tho council,
This telephone question may become
really Interesting, ns the Ploltsmouth com
pany is not tho only one having designs
on South Omaha. Thn following Is a clip
ping from a Tekamah paper- "The Her

Nothing better or funnier In the lino of
musical comedy has heen offered local
theatergoers since this new stylo of enter-
talntmnt came Into voguo than "Tho
ilurgon aster." Just why It should he
styled musical comedy Is hard for ono to
understand, unless It Is becnuso of the fact
that It Is even more ridiculous than Its
foster parent, comic opera. Mr. Plxley has
not connected tbo Incidents of his book suf
ficiently welt to mnko an Interesting story,
but he has Imbued the piece with dialogue
of such felicitous humor ns to keep IiIb
audlcnco constantly In a happy mood. When
not laughing at tho clever witticisms Thurs
day night's audience, one .of tbo large ones
ot tho season, was being charmed by tho
tuneful Lurders' music, which has found a
welcomo place In tho regard of the theater
going rrnsses of this country. Witness "Tho
Talo of the Kangaroo," a topical number
from this piece, which has enjoyed greater
popularity than nny like composition of re
cent years.
Tho pleco waB seen here last season, but
tho company which presontcd It at that
time could hardly be compared In either
size or Individual ability with tho prosent
one, wnich includes several well-known
favorites of the musical as well as comedy
world.
Herbert Cawthorno replaces Hnrry
Davenport as Peter Stuyvesant, and while
Mr. Davenport's Impersonation of tho dls
tlngulshed Hollander was capitally done
Cawthorne's Bavarian dialect adds humor
to the character, even though somewhat
misplaced It ono follows history. But since
the authors Instruct the audience not tq
worry about historical inaccuracies anach
ronisms and lapses from logical sequence
nnd common senso aro perfectly permissible.
Cawthorne has tabooed tho concertina with
which he has been associated, like his
brother Joseph, for so long, and Instead of
playing It sings a number of clever topical
songs. "The Undertaker," nn Interpolation
written by himself, Is one of tho most orlg
Inal ami amusing songs Imaginable, and at
Its close ho was forced to respond to half a
dozen encores.
Edward J. Sandford Is tho Doodle, Von
Kull, Instead ot Knox Wilson, and lm
proves the part In looks lis well ns action.
George Iiroderlck la the "Harlora Spider"
and makes It equally as tough aB did Rlloy
Hatch. Edith Yerrlngton is the same clever
Willie Van Astorbllt. Her voice, a soprano
of quality, If anything, shows Improvement
since last season. Sadlo Stockton as Phncbe
Kumlnagln, a theosophlst, makes much of
a character part that Is meant mainly for
a feeder. Tho other parts are nil In capable
hands. The feminine portion nt the chorus
is pretty in face, shapely In figure and well
voiced.
The engagement continues the balance of
the week.

been Interviewed by the Sofia correspond
ent ot the Journal nnd Advertiser. Said
the prime minister:
"For humanitarian reasons the minister
ot the Interior has undertaken to tolerate
fresh Intercourse between tho brigands ninl
nn American agent. It Is a bad precedent
to recognize the brigands, however In
directly, but we wish to stretch n point for
America Mid thp cause of humanity. Tho
brigands, wherever they nro. can now ttcat
unmolested with the, American representa
tive and sate conduct will be given to any
man or men recommended by Mr. Dickin
son. Thero Is no brigandage In Ilulgarla.
Turkey Is the causo of brigandage, murder
and massacre In Maccdoula. Conditions
thero arc Intolerable. Uurone hat been
moving In a vicious clrclo rcgnidlng Mace
donia since tho Ileiiln treaty. All the
powers agree that Macedonia should have
autonomy, but none Is willing to movo In
the matter. Count Andrassy of Austria was
more to blame than Lord Heaconsfleld at
the llerllu conference for tho present con
dition of Macedonia, which Is crying to
heaven for vengeance.
"Franco putches up Its quarrel with
Turkey, oblivious of liberty, equality and
fraternity for1 Macedonia: (lermany Is satis
fled with getting nil material adVHntagca
potslhle out of Turkey. Tho Macedonians
themselves may break Iho vicious clrclo
and break Turkey's cruel boast 'We took
you by tho sword; by the sword wo shall
hold you.' All wo ask for Macedonia Is
autonomy. Wo do not seek annexation.
"If the American pcoplo knew tho kind
of hellish barbarity perpetrated by Turkey
III Macedonia tho voice of tho nation which
freed Cuba and fought the most chivalrous
and unselfish war of modern tlmeb would
awaken tho cabinets of Europe to a senso
of their duty regarding Macedonia."
In conclusion tho premier said that he
wished tho Culled States would establish
consulates at Sofia, Varna and Phllllpopolls,
particular)' as Ilulgarla Is entirely agri
cultural nnd needs American agricultural
Implements.
SOFIA, Ilulgarla, Nov. 11. Miss Kllon

the brigands, nro now said to hn occupying
a hut In a village of southern Rulgarla, to

Thero Is renson to hellevo that a confer
ence of tho secret committee, held at
Dublnltz, favored a reduction of the ran
som demanded nnd that as soon as It comes
within range of tho funds at tho disposal
of Consul Oencrnl Dickinson he Is ready to

PARIS, Nov. H. Tho Turkish govern

two ' American girls named Delauuey nud

Idea of gritting captured by brigands In a

A dispatch from Philadelphia, published
November 2, announced that two girls-
Kate Itoylo and Flora Preston had started
for Macedonia with the Idea of getting ah-
ducted by brigands. Possibly this was tho
origin of tho porto's perturbation.
