THE OMAIIA DAILY BEE: MONDAY. NOVEMBER 21, PLEA FOR FOREIGN WORKERS Call for Mors T. M. 0. A. Missionaries in ' Other Land. SECRETARY COLTER TELLS OF GREAT NEED !, a rr a First f hrlstlaa Caarea Tafceraaele i Demand for lr(r Cora of ' Mra ta Bead Ahmad. E. T. Colton of the International commit tea of the Young Men's Christian associa tion delivered an address before the Young Mrn'a Christian association In the First Christian church tabernacle. Nineteenth and Famnra street, yenterday afternoon. He made a strong plea for the support of the work of the organisation In foreign parts. . "There Is ho foreign line any more," said he. "The largest steamers are now built to ply between the cities of Vancouver, Portland and Ban Francisco and the orient. Grouped around the Yellow sea are France, Italy, Germany and England; nearby two great powers are in a death struggle and tne American flag float over the Philip pines, bearing testimony that with it goea civilization ar.d righteousness. "The 1 paramount question Is. shall the new civilization of the east be ruled by Ood or Mammon? ft Is a question that rom to the fireside of every American cltlien. "The student class of China needs our workers; the railroad men of India have no helpers. We have got to send workers to assist the government In building the Panama canal. We never send a secretary until the missionary associations have sent a call for aid. Representatives of for eign natinna In these hotbeds of sin call for Young Men's Christian association workers. Chinese officials are standing back of hte Work of the Young Men's Chrls tlon association. In Japan the minister of education, the minister of war, the min ister of the navy, the chief justice, an ad mlral In the navy and the speaker of the Diet, all aid and stand back of the work of the Young Men's Christian association. "Vice flourishes under the laws of twelve nations at Shanghai. But In that Sodom, with Calcutta, the most vicious city In the world, wo have a membership of 1,000, a Bible class df 342 men and forty six boy. The association turned away from Its educational classes as many aa It received because of lack of accommoda tlons, and forty men, were added to the membership of the church. The business men of Shanghai give 410,000 a year to the support of the work, and the heathen Chi nees have given ground worth $26,000 to build a Chinese Young Men's Christian as sociation building upon. Omaha may be proud of tMs, because it la largely through the efforts of Secretary Lockwood that this has been accomplished. DECISION DAY AT FIRST CHURCH Aanaal Sabbath for Rerraltlaa; Mem bers at First M. E. Yesterday wae "Decision day" for the Sunday school of the First Methodist church. It is the custom In this church every fall to set aside one day when the members of the Sunday school shall join the church. At this Urns cards are dis tributed for ths children to sign saying they will accept Jesus Christ as their per sonal Savior and obey and follow Him. To mis request jr. vnroiimeni is Hppenuea s blank for the signature of the parents, showing their assent to the action. Over 350 were present at Sunday's session of the school when Superintendent F. H. Welrleh and Assistant Superlnetndent F W flnnlrlfn hprnn thn mtrviim T.naf vai thirty-eight were received on probation Into the church proper from , the school.' Thla year mora enterred. The school at praaent has ' thirty-six teacher gnd officers, and the primary department alone has seventy five pupil.'. ' For his morning sermon Dr. E. Comble Smith chose to, tell of "Joaus, the Man of Borrows," TWa Man of Borrows typified to tha pastor mankind. Tha Ufa In thl world was a life of aorrow. Dr. Smith explained. It reached us In two ways: the pain we suffer ourselves and the pain of othera by which we are affected. In thla world man and sorrow, the speaker said, walked to gether like the Siamese twins. He quoted the poet. "Man Is born to sorrow aa the aparka fly upward." "As long aa we have body and mind we have 'sorrow. The more athletic the body and more refined and beautiful in spirit the more keen is the suffering. Some beings are ao lethargic they do not cringe at pain which , would be ' exquisite agony to the more sensitive. Some have minds so dull they are alow to feel. Christ Is a mind ex quisitely sensitive." OUT WAT TO. ATTAIN Sl'CCESS Apply .aaral Talents Faithfully and Persistently. At the Hillside Congregational church the Jtev.. H. L. Mills preached an Interesting aermon, having for hla theme "Success." He drew a word picture depicting David slaying tha Phllllstlnes single-handed and aid In part: "The movement of, governments and great accomplishments often revolves around one central figure. Men are not everywhere equal. There are alwaya peo ple who can and can't, who will and who would, and those who are weak and who are atrong, competent and incompetent. Some men are stronger than others. In tha combination of capital and of labor we aee tha theory Illustrated. The weak unite with tha atrong In tha field of labor, capital unites - with capital that It may be stronger and accomplish more. In busi ness and trade today much depends on the skill, power and efficiency of the em ploye. Oftentimes tha success of the place of tha employer are Interfered with or ruined by the Inefficiency of those In his employ.

'Success depends not so much upon ex ceptional ability, but upon the exercise of the talents we have.

"It Is this quality that we see In Theo dore Roosevelt whether he Is upon the ranch, on the bonrd of police commission ers In New York, or In the presidential chair at Washington. To win, one must fight but one must be prepared. There must be a good foundation." LIFE TOO rRECIOVS TO IDLE He Tine ta Uw If Daty Is Dose, Says Dr. Gorat. Rev. William Gorat, presiding elder of the Omaha district of the Methodist Epis copal church, preached at the morning Ser vice yesterday at Hanscom Park church. The theme waa the calling to the fellow ship of Jesua Christ. "The privilege and responsibilities of fel lowship with Christ are Infinitely great " aald Dr. Oorst "We have not much time to lose aa we follow along life's responsl bllltlea. The natural tendency of man Is to be worldly and somewhat frtvoloiia. But after we are born Into the kingdom of Jesus Christ we have no time to trifle. Ood called ua to fellowship. It Is a great thing for Ood to stoop over the battlements of heaven and call ua to Him. "Jesua devoted Hla mighty mind to em bracing the world's holy affections, lova and suffering. It Is through Him that Ood haa spoken. Ood's call to fellowship Is a mighty call where we may all assemble around Hla divine family table aa joint partakers of His goodness. The call Is to all the worlds. We are not merely called to enjoy a life of pleasure, but that we may suffer to moie fully enjoy. We are not In the world just to have a good time, but to do His work and thus prepare our selves for the Joys to come. Holy suffer ing and holy joy at last leada us to tha gates of heaven." FAITH OF THE EARLY CHRISTIASS Iaterestlaa; Illustrated I.ectare at First Congregational. The unalterable faith of the early Chris tiana waa brought last night In the First Congregational church very strongly to the attention of the present day Christiana C. A. Payne told of ancient Rome and the early martyrs and with a stereoptlcon very vividly brought home to his hearers the terrible persecution of the first Christians. He had a large number of pictures of both ancient and modern Rome. In addition to these views taken from photographs were many colored platea from paintlnga. Two places of which Mr. Payne showed many viewa were the Coliseum and the church of St. Peter. These were particu larly Interesting, aa the first waa tha place where the Christiana were torn to pieces by savage animals or burned at the stake, and the second was also a spot where many Christiana were sacrificed. The great church also held another significance, So Mr. Payne pointed out. In showing the triumph of Christianity on the very spot where paganism formerly ruled and perse cuted the pioneers of the faith of gentle ness. Mr.' Payne la a brother of Henry Payne of this city and has traveled extensively. He Is to lecture again thla evening in the First Congregational church, his subject being the Yellowstone park. He will illus trate this talk with lantern views. DO NOT NEGLECT OPPORTUNITIES Rev. Dr. Lower Addresses Old Friends at Florence. Rev. William Barnes Lower, D. D., pastor of the Calvary Presbyterian church at Wyncote, a suburb of ' Philadelphia, Pa , delivered a aermon last night to a large congregation at the Florence Presbyterian church, taking for hla subject, "Opportuni ties and How We Meet Them," saying In part that opportunity Is pictured aa having a lock of hair on Ita forehead to signify that you must grasp it before It gets past you, as you cannot grasp It from behind, and with wings on Its feet to signify that you cannot catch it after it haa gone by. Borne people murder their own opportunity, which is done by neglecting It, for neglect la the end of everything. Let a man neg lect his business and that will soon be the end of It. Even churches must not be neglected, as that would mean a dead church, and nothing can be worse. A suc cessful man of today Is one who does not neglect his opportunity and who works with an end in view. 'I um glad to know there are more churches here than when I was here. They have not been neglected, but I am sorry to see that there are also more saloons. "Don't neglect your opportunity to' come to God. He gives you the chance through warnings, and the pulpit, because you may wait till it Is too late." Thanksgiving; Day Rates.

BIG CROWD ENJOYS INSPECTING IT Dr. Slssek aad Others Speak ass Daace Follows Balldlagr Will Cost Tea Thaaaaa Dollars. Sunday afternoon the Bohemians of South Omaha dedicated their new hall at Twenty-first and U streets. The dedicatory ceremonies were handicapped to some ex tent by the great crowd and the failure of the contractors to complete certain por tions of the building. To begin with there was a big rarade of Pohemlan lodges. The parade formed at the new hall and marched to Twenty fourth and N streets, where delegations from Omaha were met Fully 360 members of Omaha Bohemian lodges attended the dedicatory ceremonies. Owing to the big crowd which lined the streets adjacent to the building and overcrowded the seating capacity In the main portion of the building a number of the addresses planned were omitted. Dr. Slmek of Iowa City. Ia.. de livered the principal address. He spoke principally on the good of the order and gave great credit to the Bohemian lodges In South Omaha for constructing such a fine building. Other speakers besides Dr. Slmek were presented, but their remarks were brief, as the big crowd showed a dis position to Inspect the building In prefer ence to listening to speakers. The building when completed will cost In the neighborhood of 210,000 and la erected on the cash payment plan. Some detalla are yet to be worked out, such as apparatus for the Turner socletli and the finishing of bath, dressing and toilet rooms. On the two big staffs at the front of the building the American and Bohemian Colors were displayed. All through the building these two flags were placed side by side. Following tho addresses and a report from members of the building committee the main floor was cleared and dancing wns Indulged In for a few hours. Refresh- irar.t were rerved during the afternoon and evening. The members of the South Omaha Bohemian lodges are greatly pleased with their new home and stated that they would soon be In shnpe to have a celebration when all of the interior finishings of the building had been completed. Council Meets Tonight. This evening the city council will open bids for the grading of C and D streets from Twenty-third to Twenty-fourth streets. When bids were opened for thla work some time ago the council decided that tho bids were entirely too high. It was agreed that another advertisement be Inserted asking for more bids. On account of there being such a short haul, one street being cut down to fill another, the price asked wna considered out of proportion to the value of the work to be performed. Some of the membera of the council think this grading can bo done for about 7 cents per cubic yard. Should the contract be let tonight the work must be com pleted within forty days. The park and city hall ordinances are to be introduced and read for the first time. It was said yesterday Charles Cummlnra and others had engaged an attorney and would endeavor to secure an Injunction against this Issue of bonds. One of the grounds for a restraining order B-aght for by Cummlngs Is that the vote was illegal. In the mayor's proclamation the notice to voters was that the bonds should be voted on between the hours of B a. m. and 7 p. m. Under the state law the polls at the, last election opened at S a. m. and closed at 6 p. m. Mr. Cummlngs declares tha,t he noticed men at the bootha asking for park and city hall ballots after p. m. and they were refused. This is reported to be only one of tha defects to be alleged about the bond election. Cattle Receipts Increasing;. Cattle receipts at the stock yards here last week showed an Increase of 19,000 head over the previous week and an Increase of nearly 11,000 head over the corresponding week last year. Live stock dealers at the exchange assert that Improved weather conditions have started the western range cattle coming thia way again. There haa been a noticeable Increase in the supply of corn fed cattle. Commission men are of the opinion that cattle will keep on com ing to thla market right along now until later in the year than usual. "While there is no hope of wiping out tha deficit In cat tle for the year's reoelpts, it la expected that the present decrease of 186.000 head will be greatly lowered by the end of De cember. Sheep receipta have been falling off some lately, but flockmaatera in the northwest state that some heavy ahipments may be looked for before the month ia over. Van Goes Again Today. City Treasurer Howe aaya his Van worked betten than expected Saturday and he will send it out again today. Most of tha de linquents who have been threatened with the van have made arrangements to settle and In such cases a few days' time is given. Mr. Howe wants it understood ha is not seeking to persecute people. "We want to collect what la due tha city on personal taxes from those who are able to pay and neglect to do so," declares the treasurer. : It Is understood that from now on the van will be seen on tha streeta every day until delinquents come in and pay the amount charged against them on the tax books of the city.

RICH HARVEST OF BICYCLES Whole Pollea Station Fall ( Wheels ad Many Alleged Thieves Ara Taken In. i Yesterday the space In front of the desk at police headquarters waa almost entirely taken up with bicycles. Some of them were in serviceable condition, while others were almoat wrecked by clumsy work in an effort to dismantle them. From one or two the tires had been removed and they had been ridden without tires until the rims war entirely destroyed. There were aiso rarks, handles ana various pieces belonging to bikes, which the police had captured before they could be disposed of. The arrest of Paul Wyman gave to Cap tain Dunn's men the clue that led to the recovery of about a dosan bicycles which recently had been reported lost or atolea In various sections of tha city. Acting on information furnished by the Wyman boy, tha police yesterday arrested Carl Bishop, living at Twenty-seventh and Yates, Ruby 1'tUUlps, John Brady and James Lewis, the Utter a negro. The prisoners are all boys from U to U years old and all live In tha same neighborhood In the northwest part of town. . Some of the machines were found at the Bishop home and aome at Brady's home, but all the lada owned to that they were part of a regularly or ganised gang whose object waa to steal bicycles and dispose of them. The police are, led to believe that they were assisted by older persons from the fact that many bicycles have been dismantled and various parts changed to make Identification difficult. CIVIC FEDERATION ACTIVE Invitations ta Members to Attend Hearing; of Charges Against Chief Dannhn. This evening having been set as the time for hearing the charges filed by Elmer E. Thomas, attorney for the Civic Federa tion, against Chief of Police Donahue with the Board of Fire and Police Commission era, the executive committee has arranged to make It a field night. It has been boasted by members of the federation that their presence in the courtroom on several occasions Influenced rulings by the Judges and It Is the Intention to overawe the police board In Its duty by the same tac tics. Saturday hundreds of copies of a circular letter were mailed by the executive committee of the Civic Federation, urging attendance on the hearing at the city hall thia evening to make sure the board doea not fall to do Its duty; OMAHA. Nor. 19. Dear Sir: On nnl Monday night, November 21. the charges which the Clrlo Federation filed nmlnni Chief Donahue will be heard before the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners. These charges state that the chief has refused to enforce tho midnight closinr or dinance against saloon, and has refused to drive prostitutes out of the business dis trict of the city. The chief haa practically admitted these charges in his answer, and It now remains to be seen whether the Board of Fire and Police Commissioner will sustain him In this course of action, or whether they will remove him for failure to do his duty. The executive committee think It would be well for a number of the members of the Civic Federation to be present at that meeting in order to let the board under stand that we are Interested In this mat ter, and that we expect them to do their duty. Wo therefore request that you be present at the meeting Monday night at 8 o'clock. The board meets at No. 201, city hall. Yours truly, THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.

OUR LETTER BOX Jndge Slabangh'a Version. OMAHA. Nov. 20.-To the Editor of The Ree: I have heretofore In my life pre ferred to suffer unjust criticism In the pres rather than go there to correct it. And this is my first and I believe Shall be my last appearance for that purpose. But I will not stand false chargea that reflect on my honor and impugn my motives. I want to say here and now that during the la campaign I made no promise to any person that I would appoint him my deputy and any statement by any person that I did Is absolutely Inexcusably and unjustly false. I have never done so with reference to any official position unless It was fulfilled. I shall never do it unless it Is fulfilled. I have always known the Impropriety of it I have too frequently known of others' mistakes In that regard. I waa cautioned last summer by a good person 'who had experienced the trials-of appointments In the office of county attorney. Mr. Zelgler'a charges In yesterday's papers shall not be passed by tne unnoticed. During the last campaign I was extremely careful to make no pledges or promises to any one, and as a matter of precaution stated to all applicants that I would mako no promises, but when elected I would con sider their applications and do what thought best under all circumstances, and that I might have proof of Just what had been said in a campaign of so much false. hood I made a memorandum of many con versations Just after they occurred. When Mr. Zelsler first spoke to me about a deputyshlp he seemed the most Indifferent of any of the applicants. He also spoke of his aspirations for deputy United States attorney. He stated to tne that he wished to be considered an applicant, but he did not desire any promise on my part, as he knew that I could not make promises under the law and as he might not want the position. I told him that I would be glad to consider him as an applicant, but that he would have to take his chances with the rest. He offered me his assistance, and. like many others, I believe he stood by me loyally, although doing fax less than others whom I have not selected. In order to get support for me he may have led his friends to believe that he would be my deputy, but if he did so he did It without my authority or consent. Knowing the temptationa of some of my friends In soliciting votes to place It on the ground of benefit to them as could the deputies of my opponent, I often advised them to guard against any claim of their own except that of an applicant without promise of an appointment. At one time Mr. Zelgler came to my olflce with a draft of a letter which he expected to Bend to his people in the Yiddish language. Before reading If to me I told him there should be nothing in It which would solicit aup port for me on the ground that he was to be my deputy, but that he could on the ground that he was an applicant for tha place merely. He assured me that it was not In the letter and on his reading it found that such cluim was not there. And if the letter waa sent out as read to me it will so appear. As to his claim of contribution to my campaign expenses as a basis for his ap Dointment. he does me an injustice. These are the facts: The evening of October 15, about dusk, as I was walking along Farnam street at Twenty-ninth on the north sida of the street, Mr. Zelgler called to me across the way and approached me, saying in substance: Jnriza there Is a hard fight against you nd I &nnw vour financial condition, nnd that perhaps you are in need of a little monev. and as I have It and don't need it now I can let you have what you want and If you are elected you can pay it back ana it not lei h go. He said further: I don't want you to feel under obligations to me in any way In my application for a deputyshlp tor mat reason. . I said: I am very much obliged to you, I don't think that I will need it, but If I do I may take advantage or your Kinaness, out in any event It shall be paid back to you. Later, on the morning of October 18, I felt that I needed $100, and I prepared a note for that amount and took it up to Mr. Zeigler and stated that I would accept his kind offer and borrow $100 from him. He drew a check for it. I handed him the note. He said: "There was no need of a note." I Insisted that he take It, but he refused, and again stated "that if I was elected I could pay it back to him and If not I need not" I told him "that whether elected or not, I Intended to pay him back the money, as I always paid my debts." And he further said: "I don't want you to be Influenced by this In any way with reference to my application for appointment." I took the check and the note, and when I reached my office, aa a matter of custom ary precaution during the campaign, I wrote upon the back of the note the aub stance of what waa Bald and preserved it. I alwaya considered it a loan and appreci ated the kindness of Mr. Zelgler, aa he waa the only one who offered such a favor during the campaign. After I waa elected I went to Mr. Zelgler'a office and paid him back the money In cash. He Bald to me: "You need not pay it back." I said: "I borrowed It with the under standing that I waa to pay It back, and I Intend to do bo." Ha said: "Would you have paid It back If you had lost." I said: "I Burely would." I then for the first time had suspicion of his generous offer and refusal to take a note. I could not appoint all applicants, and I feel gratified to know that many of them who were disappointed have come to me and thanked me for the careful considera tion I gave their application.
