Council. )
Announcement Is made that City Trcas
brrr Frnk Koutsky has finally decided not
to InclitJo the J42.0OO overlap warrants In
hi next warrant rail. If this In the eauo
the city will he placed In tho position of
repudiating Its debts. It Is understood the
trenourer lias Investigated the matter thor
oughly and as the law Is plain ho proposes
to lt tho mayor and council get out of the
llmeulty n brat they can.
As shown by tho statement Issued by
City Clerk Shrlgley at the close of bust
iiots Baturday night, there Is only a llttlo
more than $20,000 left In the various funds.
In case tho overlap warrants oro not called
tho fundM avallablu will bo Increased to
nvor JGO.O00.
Street Commissioner Clark has been no
tified hy tho banks and others dealing In
South Omaha securities that no more street
repair timn checks will bv cashed. This
means that nil work on the strecttt will have
to cease until some arrangements can bo
made to replenish the fund. No doubt the
credit of tho city will bo greatly Injured
by tho refusal of tho treasurer to call these
varrants, but as ho Is complying strictly
vlth tho law hln friends suy he cannot
lie- blamed for protecting his own Interests,
It has bren suggested that tho holders
of thesn warrants pool tholr Issues and
begin suit against tho municipality with n
view to having the city confesH Judgment.
Thl plan may bo adopted and If It is the
next levy will have to bo mado large enough
o meet this Judgment and a number of
nthcrs. It bos been tho custom lately to
appeal all Judgments to the supreme court,
but tho holders of thf overlap warrants
iiopo to have tho council Instruct the city
Bttorncy to confess Judgment In case the
Inattor Is taken Into the courts.

Bollnquent January 1. From that date In
terest at tho rate of 1 per cent per month
ts charged. As a rule property owners
jiavo paid up this year much better than
n year ago, and especially In the matter
of settling for personal taxes. (Jenorally
tho big corporations do not pny their taxes
until near tho end of the year. An ex
ception to this rulo has been mado this
year, as last woek tho Missouri Pacific
railroad and tho Hock Islnnd road sent
checks to the treasurer nearly a month
nhoad of the usual time. This Is accounted
for by tho fact that some tlmo ago, when
times wero dull at tho treasurer's office,
tax statements wero mado out and mailed
to all of tho corporations. Heretofore tho
treasurer has waited for a request beforo
fnaking out such statements.

A rogular meeting of tho, city council
will bo hold tonight, but not a great deal
of business Is to bo transacted. It Is ex
pected tho street commissioner will be tit
reeled to stop work for tho tlmo being and
lay off his force on account of tho lack of
funds,
At tho last meotlng some amendments to
the I'lattHmouth telephony ordinance woro
Introduced and accepted with tho under
utandlng that tho amendments were to lie
Included in a now ordinance to bo drafted.
No effort him been mado to havo this now

able that thcro will bo anything new In
telephone circles tonight.
Probably the only matter of Importance
will bo tho snggestlon of tho finance com-
mtttcn that a new contract bo entered "Into
with Spltzcr & Co. of Toledo for the 1902
district maturities. After having bought
tho recent Issue, Spltzcr & Co. mado an offer
for next year's maturities. Members of the
council flguro It will bo a good thing to
pot tho matter out of the way for a yoar
nnd tho proposition will doubtless bo ac
cepted. Tho city will bo to little or no ex
penfo In this matter, as tho purchasers
agree to furnish tho bonds nnd pay nil of
tho ordinary expenses of tho two Issues.

Inrneniinti,
A petition for the pardon at Adolpli Jor-
genson of Cosod, Neb., now confined In tho
state penitentiary. Is Interesting tho peo
ple of thnt neighborhood nnd a ramlllca-
tlon of tho question has reached Omalut.
A few years no Jorgcnson, who, with his
parents, resided at Cozad, was arrested on
a charge of bufitlnry, the offense being
tho entry of the postofflco nt that place
and opening the safe, from which money
and stamps were taken. The crlmo is nn
offenso not only nxulnst the stnto, but
against tho nation, and before ho would
stand trial In tho federal cotirt Jorgenson
pleaded guilty In the stnto cotirt und was
sentenced to two years In tho ponltcn-
tlary.
IJy reason of tho good-behavior allowance
his time will expire In September and his
friends deslro to have him released Imme
diately, A petition to that effect hus been
generally signed In the county where sen
tence wns pnsned, but n number of the
people of the county have filed a protest
nnd In this protest they soy that should
the pnrdon be granted they will Imme
diately take steps to have him prosecuted
under tho federal law, while If he Is re
quired to serve bis time they will make no
attempt In this direction.
As conviction under the state law Is no
bar to prosecution under the federal
stntiite, the qurstlon was referred to V.
S. Hummers, t'nlted States district nttor-
ney. He will recommend thnt pardon be
not granted In the Interest of tho convict.
Hpenklng of tho matter he said that should
the people nt Cor.ad Insist upon further
prosecution trial could not be had beforo
next Juno and the lightest sentenco would
be one year In tho penltentUry, while If
tho people agree not to force prosecution
lit case Jorgennon serves his tlnlo he will
sec that no case l. Hied against lilm. be
lieving that he has suffered enough punishment.
SEASON OF ADVENT IS HERE

In of llir l,o ril.
Sunday ushered In the season of Advent,
observed with llttlo (cm solemnity than
I.enT as o pcnctentlal season In tho Catho
lic and Protestant Kplscopnl churches.
The first Sunday In Advent Is the be
ginning of the liturgical yenr, marking, ns
It does, the time when tho Christian world
is supposed to turn Its thoughts to the
second coming of Jesus Christ. At the
somo tlmo the services of the four weeks
preceding Christmas are given to thoughts
of the Jlrst coming of the Lord nnd the
lessons nnd gospels nil bear upon these
two points. The. lessons nro generally
from the book of salnh. giving the proph
esies of the Initial visit of the Messiah to
earth, whllo the gospels tell of the hope
and fear of the second coming.
During tho four weeks preceding Christ
mas nil festivities are subdued. In the
Catholic church weddings aro forbidden
and public oecostons of Joy nro frowned
down. Whllo In the Rplscopal cljuroh tho
rule Is not so strict, the tendency is in
tin; same direction.
In both churches the robes worn by the
offlclottng priests and ministers are of :v
vlolot. pcnctentlal shade, In the Catholic
church the organ Is silent until tho third
Sunday In Advent nnd the Joyo;is prayers,
psalms and cnntlcles are succeeded by
rtiOMe of dolorous tone.
In tin; churches of both sects the days
of Advent nro especially observed In works
of charity nnd services nro held each day.
The services In tho Omaha churches Hun
day were marked with no particular cere
mony, us the senson Is ono In which osten
tHtlon In ritualistic ceremonies Is dis
countenanced!.

"Too soul of a man Is entitled to utter
nd absolute Independence of public opin
ion," Ileasonlng on this proposition and
aklng for his text tho third and fourth
verses of the fourth chapter of First Corin
thians, Rev, Hubert C. Herring, tho pastor,
preached at tho First Congregational church
Sunday mrnlug on "Christian Independ
ence,"
He applied to modern conditions Paul's
words' "It Is a very small matter to mo
that I should be Judged of you or of any
man," and said In part:
Public opinion Is a peculiar thing, orlgl-
atlng nowhere and ofton doubling on Its
own tricks, but over pressing upon us from
II sides even as the atmosphere. Kvery
man who wishes to be a leader must he
bin to mold It and to utilize It. Some
there nro who cater to it to the oxtent of
becoming servile; others affirm an nbsoluto
disregard of It and enjoy trampling upon
all conventionalities. Neither attitude Is
commendable; nor Is tho so-called 'golden
mlon' always desirable, for not Infrequently
there Is moro of the baser metals than of
gold In it.
"That man has the correct spirit of In-
ependence who bases such Independence
on a depondenco on Christ. Tho rUht power
s drawn from Him. The man who would
Ithstand the buffeting of the world murt
feel tho Savior at his back. Too many
thero nro who, In all that they do are won-
crlng, not what their own consciences
pprovo nor what (lod thinks of the action,
but what the people think of It. It Is not
f such that an army Invlnclblo can bo
composed. Such army must bo enrolled
from the bond slaves of Jesus Christ. May
tho grrco of Ood make us Independent
Christians with an Independence that shall
commend Itself to Htm for Its very de
pendence on His support."

Rev. Luther M. Kuhns preached In C.raco
Lutheran church yestorday morning on the
theme, "A Light from Above." Tho service,
said the pastor, was In commemoration of
the Advent season, which Is tho Initial point
In the evangelical dispensation. It marks
the. beginning of the gospel.
The text, wns from the bcncdlctus, Luke I,
S-7f: "Through the tender mercy of our
Ood, whereby daysprlng from on high hath

Extracts from Some Sermons
Delivered Sunday.
tho aspiration and hope of a devout He
brow under the Inspiration of tho Holy
Ohost. From It wo get tho key of Joy nnd
gladnoss as n nolo for this, tho Advent sea
son. "Tho Advent acaton means tho Joy of tho
world for tho offering of redemption from
Kin. Tho main thought of tho text Is that
the sole fountain of nil Joy Is Ood's tendor
mercy, exhibited In this provision for tho
forgiveness of sins. Christ's conquering
love triumphs over all,
"This thought is presented under thn
figure of tho daysprlng from on high. This
may bo Interpreted cither ns the rising
sun, tho balm of light coming to these be
sieged, miserable or oppressed or as tho
guiding star leading tho wanderer and the
lost one nu his way.
"It Is a distinct feature of Christianity
that it provides tho only way to peace.
Through no other channel can It be found.
That was a happy thought that proposed
this century ns nn era of peace."
Christian .Mniihiioil,
Rev. H. L. House of Nebraska City oc
cupied tho pulpit of the First llnptlst
church Sunday morning. He spoko upon
tho subject, "Christian Mnnhood," nnd said
In part:
"Never a day since Christ came to this
earth was manhood nt such a premium ns
now. Hut there nro different conceptions
of manhood. Tho boy with tho cigarette
between his teeth has one conception and
tho well-dressed nnd Idle young fellow
still another. Those men who aro mold
ing tho affairs of tho century havo n high
conception of manhoad, whllo tho savage
bases his upon strength nnd brnvery. No
tions upon a larger scale have demonstrated
theso conceptions of manhood. Tho an
cient Romans stood for war nnd conquest,
tho Orcoks for knowledge and tho Hebrews
for righteousness.
"Our Ideals of manhood change with tho
changing yenrs. Not long ago a clergyman
was certain of honor because ho belonged
to the clerical order und becauso of tho
cloth ho woro. Now there must be a man
Insldo of that cloth or It will not be re
spected. It Is necessary In this ago. as
In all ages, to havo a fixed Ideal of man
hood. Thero Is but ono unchangeable and
everlasting. The manhood of Jesus Christ
should b our mnuhood. While there arc
today different conceptions of Christ's char
acter, there Is no prominent trait in
Chrlst'B character, but a perfect blending
of all virtues,
"Jesus Christ's manhood consisted In not
only conceiving tho truth, but In giving
it a bodily form and lifting It up. Tho
great danger In education today Is that,
ono may seek it for Its own sake and not
for right living and right doing. Tho world
tg all tho time saying, 'Hlessed Is tho
strong man,' but Christ says, 'Blessed Is
the humble and weak.'
"Manhood Is a growth, not a manufac
ture. Christian manhood Is not mnuhood
reformed, but manhood recrentod. In true
Christian manhood tho lower will always
be subjected to tho higher. It Is man's
duty today to live for others. In living
out your life It Is your outy to bo your
self. Imitation Is tho death of growth.
Society Is n detriment, a hindrance. It
would rrqulro every man to obey tho same
sot of rules and to follow tho samo modo
of life. It prohibits individuality and
keeps a man from being himself.
"That person who Is alwnys fault-finding
has divorced truth from duty. It Is tho
man who takes adverse clrcumstnncon and
bends them to his own will who reaches
tho heights of Christian manhood and be
comes a king among his fellow-men."
S.vntein of Soul lliillitliiic.
In the First Presbyterian church Sunday
morning Ilev. Ktluln Hnrt Jenks. pastor.
preached from Nchenilnh, 7-3, "Hveryono
III his watch nnd evt'ryono to bo over
ngnlust his own house." The central
thought of the sermon was that whllo It Is
natural nnd proper for all to tako an In
tcrest In tho larger affairs of tho world,
still the Immediate duty of the citizen is
specified und concrete. As Robert Louis
Slovciison said, "Tho ways of life Ho bo-
fore us straight us tho groves of launch
Ing."
"Tho work of Christianity," said tho
pastor, "la very comprehensive. It
wouldn't be poHslble for ono person, even
If desirable, to servo with equal results In
all Its various phases. Ono inun exerts his
energies In tho shims, another in foreign
missions, aiiulher In homo mlsslomi, whllo
1 find my Held of labor hero In a city mil
pit. I believe I can neroinpllsh moro good
hero than If I dabbled a llttlo In all these
linos of nctivlty. It Is for each to tnko
some spcclllo part In tho work and do thut
and cast It Into tho general whole. Jt Is
an easy thing for n man to spread him
self out over all creation and yet not
ninko a good grcaso spot.
"The 1'renbyterlan church stands for
something that Is roncrote In religious
life. It It. n part of the school system In
soul-building and If wo are to nrrvo Pies
byterlanlsm wo must find our personal
work right here and serve our church

with a less number In favor tho plan can

clearly Illegal to Issue stock against do
nations, and as to placing It in the hands
of a trustee well, that would certainly
be a unliiuo course mado dubious by tho
fact that the stock would then be pos

Aiiiioiiiieenjeuta of the Theater.
A melodramatic astonlshor this year Is
tho (successful Kngllsh play, "Sporting
Life," which will bo presented nt noyd'B
for one performance tonight. Tho piece
withstood tho entire period of tho last
theatrical term in New York and Chicago,
remaining in the latter city for a greate
length of tlmo than has over before been
accredited to a dramatic production, and
scoring a succoss unprecedented In Windy
City theatricals. Some Idea of the magni
tude of tho presentment of "Sporting Ltfo"
may be gained from the statement that,
despite the great area of MoVlcker's theater
stage, where the piece has recently been
presented, It was necessary to remove there
from every stick and canvas of tho houte
scenery to accommodate the vast Investi
