ob the Work Accomplished
Darin the Pant
Year.
(services were held generally In the Meth
odist churches of Omaha yesterday by the
Epworth league on account of "the day
being the fifteenth anniversary of the
founding of the order.
At tho Hanacom Park Methodist Epis
copal church C. F. Clark, president of the
Church league, led the meeting, assisted
by Miss Delia Day. Dr. Clark outlined a
brief sketch ot the work accomplished by
the league and read the minutes of the
first meeting of the league held in the
church In 1889. Reports were received from
the First Methodist church, showing the
work- done laBt year and outlining the plan
of work to be pursued during the coming
year. Similar reports were also received
and read ..from the leagues of Reward
Street Methodist and Trinity churches.
The meeting at the Hanscorn Park
church, which waa hel4 at 7 o'clock Jn the
evening, was attended by about seventy
five members of the church. Rev. O. W.
Flfer, pastor of the First Methodist church
at York, delivered a short address upon
the subject of league work In his home
city. . ,
CALEB AX. EXAMPLE FOR ALL AGES
His Hustle for Hebron Shows What a
Man Can Do, '
Rev, O. W. Fifer. pastor of the First
Methodist church of York, Neb., occupied
the pulpit at kanscom. Park Methodist
Episcopal church lust night. He chose for
hie subject Joshua xlv:14, "Hebron there
fore became the inheritance of Caleb, the
son of Jephunnet, the Keneslte, unto this
day because that he wholly followed the
Lord Ood of Israel."
"Borne people hide under a certain sense
of modesty,' said Rev. Mr. Flfer. 'When
danger appears they are ever ready. Such
a man was Caleb. In our mind's eye we
can see Joshua dividing tht promised land
after it had been taken, and we can imag
ine, the troubles, that he must have had
with some people wanting a little better
than their neighbors were getting. Here
comes the man, Caleb, who has done most
of the fighting, and Joshua feels somewhat
downcast when he realises that all the
best land has been given out, but he is
surprised when Caleb says, 'For my share
give me Hebron.' Joshua would be pleased
to comply with the request If -Hebron was
his to give, but it was occupied by ene
mies. "In modern times ; Caleb would probably
have been in his grave for fifteen years
had he followed the modern idea of Hying.

He was 83 years of age, and was asking
for the hardest task he had ever set him
self, that of taking Hebron. This Is in
deed a lesson for the people of our times,
when we see young men . looking for easy
tasks, and when men are being cast aside
at middle age as unfit to perform the du
ties set for their younger brothers. The
modern treatment of old 'age Is perfect
cruelty. The life of Caleb is a stern re
buke to us. He is both a morning and
evening star; a lesson for young and old.
His Is also an example of patience finally
rewarded. We of today want our reward
to come quickly and without effort. We
cannot work and. wait.". . .
WIDE FIELD FOR MISSIONARIES
Rev. E. M. Wilson Tells of India's
Need of the Gospel.
Rev. E. M. Wilson, a returned missionary
from India, occupied the pulpit at Kountze
Memorial church In Metropolitan hall yes
terday morning. ' He preached from the
text Acts 1:8, "But ye shall receive power,
after that the holy ghost Is come upon
you; and ye -shall be witnesses unto me
both In Jerusalem, and In all Judea, and
in Samaria and to the uttermost part of
the earth." He said:
"The importunes of His mission Is to
carry the gospel into all parts of the earth.
If there be objections to the foreign mis
sions they must be objections to Christ.
It was Ills order that His gospel should
be given to all the world and to every
creature.
"'4 lie people of. India occupy a territory
a large as that portion of the United
States lying cast of the Rocky mountains
to the Atlantic coast. In it are 300,800,000
people. They have but little Idea of pa
triotism. About '300,000,000 of them are
under British rule and the remaining native
states suzerainty of Great Britain. There
are 600 languages and dialects In India, com
prising a veritable babel of tongues.
"If the Lord meant anything He meant
the gospel should be preached to every
one. There are many things to admire and
many things, to denounce In India, In my
district there are It ,000 widows- under the
age of 4 years. Their code of morals is
Immeasurably different from those with
which we hre familiar.
"The curse '. of . India Is the system of
caste. There are four degrees of it; Brah
tnas or priests comprise the first, warriors
the second, tradesmen the third and serv
ants the lowest The, barrier between each
degre of caste Is absolutely Insurmount
able. There is no, chance of rising from
ono caste to another.
"The Christian missionaries .are classed
with the fourth Caste. For one caste to
shake hands with another Is a profanation
and dofllement. This caste system Is Inten
sified In the children, and It Is Impossible
to control or modify it. Were it not for
caste the work, of the missionaries would
be easy. There are now probably 1,000,000
Christian converts lr; India. And there Is
a population of 300,000,000 yet to work upon."
FINDS SKEPTICISM IN. CHURCHES
" - -
Rev. Mr. I.oaa; Telia Congregation
Many Do Not Believe.
Rev. M. DeWltt Long, pustor of the Knox
Presbyterian church, told hts congregation
yesterday morning' In his sermon that he
feared many church members are skeptics.
He intimated . some of his hearers might
be affected the same way. .
' "Many of the church people do not be
lieve down deep in their hearts," said Rev.
Mr. DeLong. "They profess to believe in
the power of prayer and the works of the
Creator, and they may want to believe,
but I am convinced many of them do not.
They are the kind who need some great
mental shock to wake them to the true
condition. s
"They are what might be called the
spiritually Imperfect they cannot see Jesus.
Success In business Is not absolutely neces
sarysuccess In professional life Is not
absolutely necessary, but every man must
be able to see Jesua, J Tie word spiritual
haa been much, abused. In fact, It la one
of the most abused words In the language.
"Spirituality Is "not Incessant prayer nor
persistent oonnlhg of the Bible, although
these go hand In hand with it. Neither
Is It the . wearing of a long face and a
sanctimonious air. Ths real quality of
mind Is the ' ability to perceive .religious
truths and to know and keep the faith."
ANNIVERSARY OF DEBT PAYING
Sunday Brings Cheer to First Meth
odist pharrh People. '
Sunday was debt paying anniversary in
the First Methodist Episcopal church. On
the pledges made at. this time lam, the sum
of l.0ta.06 has been paid which is some
thing more than the requirement. In addi
tion a aum of $309 will be received into the
treasury in a few days. The congregation
pledged Itself for l,So0 to apply on Interest
due. '.... .
?May 17. J,', said Rev. H". Comble Smith,
in making the anaounreiaent. '.'we accom
plished In this house, the raising of a sum
sufficient to cancel the entire floating and
mortgage debts of this church. Since that
time we have paid on the floating debt,
which consists of notes to banks and In
dividuals, more than $1,500 and we have
sent to Milwaukee to apply on the mort
gage, more than 114,000. An expense of a
few dollars has been Incurred In doing this
work."
The announcement that Interest waa due
to the amount of $2,000, was something of a
blow to a portion of the congregation. This
Interest formerly has been met half yearly
by special collections, but during the last
twelve months these were omitted because
of the heavy strain on the subscribers. The
congregation was encouraged by the know
ledge that never again would the Interest
be as large and some members subscribed
very liberally. The highest donation was
3150 and the smallest $10 and but one of
each amount was received.
The day was celebrated also as the anni
versary of the Fpworth league. The ob
servances began at 9 o'clock In the morn
ing with an Epworth watch mrvice. At 7
and 8 o'clock in the evening, however, were
the principal services. The former was
taken by the Junior league with recitations,
songs and exercises and the latter was ad
dressed by the pastor who preached an
Epworth sermon.
CURED BY AN UNDERTAKER
A. ft. Smith of Lincoln Tells How De
termination Worked In Effecting;
His Restoration.
A, O. Smith of Lincoln has Just recov
ered from a Ave or elx weeks' siege of ill
ness .and waa at the Millard last evening.
Being complimented upon his improved ap
pearance, he said: "Yes, I am about well.
And the strange part of It was that I waa
cured by an undertaker, Walt Scott of
Beatrice."
"Was he negotiating for your cidaver
and the funeral?"
"Not exactly that, but I do not know
what his designs may have been. I was
sitting In the Paddock hotel at Beatrice
a few days ago, having Just come from the
sanitarium, and Scott and Dr. Fall were
standing nearby and apparently talking
about me. Scott finally said to Dr. Fall:
"Look at Smith over there. He reminds
me of a big, thin Shanghai rooster sitting
on an ash barrel with a bad case of
chicken cholera.'
"I heard the remark all right, and my
first impulse was to kill Scott, but as I
Imagined I looked about as he described
it, I determined to beat him out of that
undertaking job with me the star actor,
and I aald to him, 'Walt, I am going to
get well, and when I gain a few more
pounds I am coming back here to lick
you." The fact Is that I was , actually
shamed into getting well, and Scott will
get that licking and a good round doctor's
fee for curing me."

EACH MAN HIS OWN EMPLOYER
Seattle Socialist Expoands His Idea of
Industrial Independence at
i Washington Hall.
' Dr. Titus, editor of the Seattle Socialist,
delivered a lecture last night at Washing
ton hall. In which he gave the effect mod
ern machinery plays In modern life and
the remedy for the results. According to
him, machinery, which now requires less
men to produce an article than It did when
manufactured In a more primitive man
ner, must "necessarily throw a large num
ber of person out of employment and
thus cause a competition between the em
ployed and the unemployed. This compe
tition is the cause of low wages and In
sufficiency and leads to evil, crime and
misery. Dr. Titus said that the remedy for
this state 'of affairs Is for each man to
own the machinery he operates and pos
sess the result of his work. During the
lecture the speaker took many, a sly shot
at the ambitions of Hearst, declaring him
to be an Imposter when he claimed to be
the friend of the masses. At the conclusion
of the address Mrs. Roe, Miss Jorgenson
and Mrs. Mrllvane sang an English version
of the Marsellalse hymn.

II THE IMSUBANCE FIELD
Many Omaha life Insurance men take
objections to the reports which have gone
abroad to the effect that life Insurance
companies collect sums of money In the
state each year which In the aggregate
make up an enormous total, and that this
Is never returned to Nebraska, but Is a
dead losa to the state. In speaking of this
feature of the insurance business O. W.
Noble, general agent of the New England
Mutual Life of Boston, says: "Last year
the various companies doing business In
this state paid to Nebraska beneficiaries
In death losses alone $536,063. In addition
to this large sums were paid In dividends,
cash surrenders, fifteen and twenty year
settlements and matured endowments.
These items together with rents, taxes and
agency exnrnses umount to much more
than the companies were receiving ten
years ago. The payments to policy holders
are Increasing very rapidly since there are
many more policies maturing. In some
cases certain companies have paid back
to residents of Nebraska In one year more
money than the gross amount of premiums
received from policy holders of the state
during the same year. Certain concerns
have continued to advertise that alien life
companies are absorbing large sums of
money, not a dollar of which Is returned
to Nebraska. We have been too busy to
take time to answer these arguments ad
vanced by some agents, but if people will
take a little time to consider the matter
they can readily see that the statement Is
not true."
Judging from reports which come from
the east there appears to be no question
but that there will eventually be some
raise In fire rates In congested districts of
cities. The matter Is still under consid
eration, but it will probably be at least
three months before a final decision to
raise the rates will be made public by the
companies. It is of great interest to prop
erty owners and business men of this city
to know that In all probability the rates
In this city will not be raised, and If there
Is a raise it will not Involve more than
one-third of the business district. The
present plan of raising the rates which is
under consideration by the companies, Is
to allow the general rates to remain as
they are, but to add 10 per cent to policies
covering risks In congested districts, it
being estimated that this will suffice to
carry the additional risk due to conges
tion which has occurred during the past
few years, and the danger of which has
recently been called to the attention of
the companies by the Baltimore, Rochester
and Toronto fires. The reason why the
probabilities of an advance In rates In
this city are slight Is because In the list
of American' cities, where an advance has
been considered. It Is found that Omaha
stands second, the only city having as
many points In Its favor being Minneapolis.
The principal factors which place this city
In the front rank of risks, considered from
an insurance standpoint, being wide streets,
few high buildings, few buildings of large
area. Improved construction of buildings
and a good water supply. All of these
points In favor of Omaha, it is believed,
will have the effect of cutting this city
out of the list when the general raise In
rates Is announced.
An insurance Journal in speaking of
fire-proof construction of buildings de
fines It as "being built of materials such
as not only do not burn, but which under
the action of fire, remain intact and pre
serve their strength or the rtrength of
those parts which they protect. The ma
terials commonly,, used In building con
struction which are generally considered
Incombustible are jbrlck, stone, terra cptla,
wire, glass. Iron,, f '.eel and concrete. By In
combustible materials Is meant those
which will not burn or produce flame
when subjected to a heat at 2,000 to 3,000
degrees Fahrenheit. Incombustible ma
terials are not necessarily fire-proof."
The work which Is being done on the
Union Paclflo headquarters building to af
ford better fire protection to the property,
It Is said, will result in the lowering of
the rate of insurance from 25 to 35 per
cent. In all of the passage-ways about
the building wooden doors covered with
tin are being installed In such position
that they can be readily closed In case of
an alarm of. fire. Most people are of the
opinion that such doors would afford but
slight protection In case of fire, but ex
perts say that they are far preferable to
doors made of sheet Iron or sheet steel,
as when the heat reaches them they will
not warp, and they are very slow to burn.
Sheet iron doors will warp under extreme
heat and allow the fire to pans through.
The basement of the building has been
almost entirely rebuilt, and the old wooden
shelving has been replaced with tin-covered
and sheet iron shelving. Fire es
capes have been placed on all eldta of
the building for the safety of the occu
pants. The rate on the building has al
ways been high on account of lis inflam
mable construction and the large area
which it covers.

DUG GIVES ALARM OF FIRE
Big Newfoundland Aw.-kei Muter When
Blass fitar i at Kroj Park.
LOSS FULLY COVERED BY THE INSURANCE
Master's Rand Loses Instruments and
Leader Ills Valued Compositions
Park Will Be Opened
Kelt Sunday.
A Newfoundland dog gave the alarm of
the disastrous fire at Krug park shortly
after midnight Sunday. The faithful ani
mal awoke his master, Ooorge Lott, cus
todian of the park, by scratching on the
door opening into the room In which Mr.
Lott was asleep, and, true to his canine
Instincts, howled as If In distress. . Mr.
Lott thought little of the Incident, except
that it kept him from sleeping, and called
to the dog to "lie down." But the faithful
old servant only howled the louder. Then
his master was convinced something had
gone wrong, so the custodian opened the
door and saw that the pavilion waa bias
ing. Immediately he gave an alarm, and
the Brnsnn fire company and Omaha com
pany No. S, from Walnut Hill, responded,
but with the low water pressure and the
Btart tho lire had, all that could be done
was to confine the conflagration to the
buildings th-it were destroyed. While as
sisting in saving some articles stored In
the pavilion, Mr. Lott sustained Blight
burns on the hands and neck.
The cause of the fire Is still not definitely
known, but it is determined that It origi
nated In the pavilion, as was stated In
The Bee Sunday. This structure, the
bowling alleys, cottage and bandstand
were destroyed, as was also a quantity of
shrubs, plants and park benches. The loss
Is estimated at $23,000, and Is fully covered
by Insurance. The fire was confined to
I what Is known as the annex, leaving the
park proper intact. The management an
nounces that the park will be opened for
the seuson next Sunday.
Blames Elaotrlo Wiring.
"While the cause of the fire is unknown,
the supposition Is that It originated In the
electric wiring In the pavilion," said Wil
liam Krug yesterday. "Work will be be
gun today on a new pavilion for this sea
son, and everything that money and labor
can do will be done to have the park in
readiness for the public next Sunday.
Next year It is my intention to erect a
fireproof pavilion on a larger scale. We
hope to have this year's pavilion in readi
ness in three weeks. In the meantime the
burned sectior. will be fenced off."
The new pavilion had Just been com
pleted ut a cost of $16.0uo, and waa to
have been opened yesterday. It was 100x180
and two stories nigh. One of the features
was a well-apportioned cafe with facil
ities for catering to small or large parties.
Around the second ntory was a balcony
where guests could sit at tables and at the
same time enjoy Ihe music below.
About $500 T.orth of rlurits and flowers
were destroyed around the pavilion. These
decorations recently were taken from the
new hot house, erected iast fall, and cet
out In a manner that surpassed all pre
vious efforts of the management.
The bowling alley was a four-alley struc
ture, while the cottage that was destroyed
was a small building moved to the east
portion of the park when the new pavilion
was erected.
Saturday Wvenlng the electric lights were
turned on for the first time and every
thing was found to be in readiness for
the intended tpening yesterday. The park
has had a general renovation and im
proving, the old buildings having been
repainted and the lighting arrangement
considerably enlarged.
Determined on Polite Resort.
Mr. Krug tays It Is one of the am
bitions of his life to make the place in
fact as well as In name a family resort,
and to this end he says he will continue
to devote his time and nioney. Some years
ago he spent six months In Europe study
ing parks and expects to make Krug park
one of the best, as time and conditions
will permit.
Huster's band suffers a great loss by
this fire, as all its property musical In
strumentsexcept the base drum and a
few of the Instruments owned by Individ
ual members, was tjotally destroyed, In
volving a loss of about $1,500 In cash, bo
sides a number ot musical selections which
cannot be replaced.
Albln Huster, the leader of the band,
had taken his entire musical library to
the grounds Saturday night and It was
totally destroyed. In the collection were
about twenty original compositions, no
copies of which remain, as both scores
and parts for instruments were consumed.
In addition to this, about fifty arrange
ments of the work of other compoeis
which he hnd prepared were burned. ThK I
collection was the work of Mr. Huster's
lifetime as a musician and its value can
not be estimated In money.
There is some talk, umong friends of
the band, of giving a benefit for the or
ganization to assist the members in re
cuperating their loss In part.
