Rev. Peter Munson of Lincoln occupied
the pulpit at the Swedish Methodist church,
Twenty-seventh and Seward Btreets, yes
terday morning. He spoke from the text,
Colosslans II. 6-7: "An ye have therefore
received Christ Jesus, the Lord, so walk
ye with Illm. Rooted and built up In
Him and established In the faith as ye
have been taught abounding there with
thanksgiving." Dr. Munson, who, by the
way. Is a pleasing and Impressive pulpit
orator, spoke In the Swedish language,
and much of the earnestness of his elo
quence l necessarily lost In an Imperfect
translation of his remarks into English.
He said In effect:
"Prayer Is the essential to a perfect
understanding of the practice of a Chris
tian life. By prayer, which Is communion
with God, one Is brought close to God
and to Christ. His faith Is strengthened
by rrayer and Its answering effect is to
anchor him more firmly to faith In and
love for the Tord Jesus. Belief in Christ
Is tho acceptance of Christ, and frequent
prayer Is necessary to keep ono In con
utant touch with Him. It opens his under
standing to a better undentandltiff of
what Christ would have him do. Prayer
Stimulates one to a better understanding
of tho New Testament. As a guide for all
our actions and to teach us the way to
a pure, exalted and perfect life, both
here and hereafter, the New Testament is
the greatest and only guide. From It Is
derived every moral law, every noble pre
cept and every example that Is worthy of
emulation. It appeals to the head, to the
heart and to the soul. It teaches of the
anMlty of mother, home and heaven,
and leaves nothing untaught that Is needful
for the welfare of the world and Is the
Ilghr that directs the way of Christ to
the life everlasting. Take It to your heart,
and as ye have therefore received Christ
Jesus, the Dord, so walk ye with Him.
Take His yoke upon you. He will help
you bear It. Go to Him In prayer. He
will not deny you. He yearns to plead
with God for you and to lead you to the
throne of everlasting mercy and Joy. It
needs but the asking to receive His blessing."

"Whatever a man does in this world, un
less It Is linked with God, It Is effervescent
and avalleth little," said Rev. Robert Yost,
pastor of St. Mury's Avenue Congregational
church, In his sermon on "The Follies of
the Wise" nt vesper service yesterday
afternoon. "In reality my subject Is only
half named; It should have been "The
Follies of the Wise and the Wisdom of the
Fools," continued the minister.
Rav. Mr. Yost had In consideration those
who ore worldly wise and who bend every
effort to accomplish some end or purpose.
"Somo business men put more energy Into
one week's business than many Christians
put into their whole lives' trying to get
closer to God." said the speaker.

the wisdom of striving for a crown of glory,

today the languid Christian cannot expect

Rev. Francis K. Rates Tells of Condi
tions In Rhodesia.
"All the girls In that school had to eat
was eornmeal mush twice a day with a
spoonful of sugar to make It a little less
tasteless. The school wad crowded Willi
these poor girl wives, run away from their
lives of degradation, and we had to turn
them away for there was not enough for
them to eat. The native teachers said to
them, 'They are poor In America and can
not spare us any more money for the
school, tell your sisters we cannot take
them.' But tho girls wanted to do some
thing for the work Of God, and were not
satisfied alone to pray. They consulted to
gether and came back Hnd said they
would give up half their sugar so that
more girls might be taken In. Then they
went out and prayed and came back In
and said they would give up all of their
sugar the whole fifty of them. They said,
'We will take In all who come In spite of
the poverty in America.' "
This Is n. little Incident told yesterday at
the Hillside Congregational church by
Rev. Francis E. Bates, formerly of Ne
braska and now a missionary in Rhodesia,
South Africa. It not alone shows the hold
Christianity Is 'getting on the black people,
but It gives another point of view on the
foreign mission contributions. Mr. Bates
was sent abroad as the representative of
the Christian Kndeavor societies In Ne
braska and Knnsas and Missouri. Finally
the Nebraska societies took up the work
of supporting him alone. The first year
they raised of his 11,000 salary, and last
year only X. Mr. Bates asked that
every member Of the Endeavor give 1 cent
a week to the foreign missions; that would
be enough to keep tho work going on.
Mr. Bates gave the congregation some
Interesting details of the missionary life
and hardships In South Africa. The first
American missionary entered Natal In
1835, and In twelve years so little had been
done that the work was almost abandoned.
Now the country Is dotted with stations.
He told of a body of warriors sent on an
expedition who were defeated and went off
Ino Rhodesia, fearing to return to their
king In Natal . These warriors founded a
nation, the head of which sent to the mis
sionaries asking to have them enter his
country. He wanted four families there,
but they could not be found to volunteer
and In 1KX8, years later, when the church
could furnish the missionaries, the Portu
guese had come and the son of the old
chief said, "Your footsteps were too slow,
I already have my missionary." In his
mission Mr. Bates has seven schools with
100 or BOO children In them, taught by the
first dozen of children who were first put
under Instruction. There are ten brick mis
sion buildings put up with native made
brick, where there was nothing a few years
ago when Mr. Bates and his companions
went there.
FAXIB CROSHY, TUB SOXG WRIT Kit
Interesting; Starr of the Blind
Woman Who Saw God.
Fanny Crosby, the blind writer of gospel
hymns, was the subject in more than one
Omaha pulpit Sunday. Mrs. J. P. Jlalloy
spoke on the life, character and work of
Fanny Crosby In Trinity Methodist Epis
copal church. She quoted eminent persons
who had said thnt Fanny Crosby Is the
most popular and beloved song writer who
has ever lived! "Saved by Grace" and "Safe
in the Arms of Jesus" are two of her most
popular songs. Mrs. Crosby became blind
when she was 6 months old through the
inefficiency of the family doctor. She did
not repine, and Mrs. Bailey repeated a very
pretty little verse she wrote at the age of
8 years, saying she would be happy. At 10
years old she knew a large part of the Bible
by heart; at 15 she entered the New York
institute for the Blind, where she studied
seven years and afterward became a
teacher, Instructing blind children and writ
ing verses until 1858. Then she married
Alexander VanAlstlne.
"Safe In the Arms of Jesus" was written
in fifteen minutes on the request of a man
who wanted a song for an old tune and
who had to make a train. She wrote often
several songs In a day. "Saved by Grace"
she kept for a long time after she had writ
ten It before hhe made It public.
"Blessed are the pure In heart, for they
shall see God," said Mrs. Bailey In com
menting on the life of the song writer.
"This means something more pure, more
helpful to us than Is generally thought; for
if means tho pure In heart shall see God
In this life. I believe Fanny Crosby had
this vision, for ber own testimony tells us
of It. She said the physician may have
erred, but God did "not err In causing her
blindness; and she believed her life had
keen darkened so that she could best per
form the work for which she was Intended.
That she saw Xlod Is the secret of her suc
cessit comes out In her work. How many
people bless the name of Fanny Crosby.
You young people here, when you look out
on life and everything seems to go wrong,
when all Is failure and disappointment, re
member God directs our lives and do as
Fanny Crosby did. Remember we do not
have to cross over the river to see Him.
'And I atfall see Him face to face, and tell
the story, saved by grace.' "

A4CRON, O., March a.-To the Editor of
The Bee: Electricity and the genius of
Invention gave us the magnetic telegraph,
followed by the telephone, which aston
ished mankind with a new development
and marked a new era in the world's
progress. Many wise and far-seeing men
were slow to accept these inventions which
have so suddenly changed the commercial
and social conditions of the world. The
people were slow to accept these mighty
agencies of progress and they encountered
much opposition. But how could we get
on now; lit either peace or war, without
the telegraph and telephone? And now
tame the trolley, the electric car, the subur
ban rullroad, which was to bring the people
of the country Into the city and the people
of the city into the country, Into a close
fellowship and brotherhood. Not appre
ciating the Inestimable benefits to both the
town and the country that this swift and
cheap means of travel secured, many people
denounced and opposed It, until time and
experience have proven in the great central
states of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Illi
nois that the interurban railroad has be
come to the Interior of those states as
valuable and important to the farmers
and to the dwellers in small villages, In
both money and luxury of living, us tho
grcut steam roads have been in the develop
ment of the whole country. The remark
able growth of these suburban roads within
ten years proved the confidence of the
people In their importance and value in
every district into which they have been
built. As has been said, in the states
above named they have become a fixed and
distinctive feature of every-day life. The
farmers in them are eager for more and
more trolley lines and give them all kinds
of support In rights-of-way and In Invest
ment in their bonds and stocks, and why?
Because the advantages of these electrical
railroads build up towns and villages in
population and business and increaso the
value of every farm along their lines.
Some Ohio Lines.
The Cleveland & Kastern, forty miles
long, which connects that city with Mld
dletleld, and passing through that once
dead vlliuge of Chardon, Is one Illustration
out of many. Tho road has been in exist
ence several years and at the time it
opened land was selling at from $12 to $30
per acre. It Is now selling as high as I1U0
per acre, with a large increase In prop
erty values In towns, which is estimated at
from IS to luO per cent. Chardon Is now
one of the most prosperous among them.
It boasts a new life, electric light, tiag
Btone sidewalks, and all the luxuries are
now in Chardon. Lands near it, which
used to sell at $.'S0 per acre, are now quoted
at $100 per acre and upward, while town
property has doubled In value.
Prices of farm products in Chardon over
those of towns that have no electric roads
are notably higher. A reliable statement
of the fact says on this point: Poultry,
about 2 cents per pound more; milk, 70
cents per 100 higher; potatoes, 10 cents a
bushel more, and eggs, from 2 to 3 cents
a dozen higher." So Bays a merchant of
Chardon.
What has been said of Chardon Is true
of Mlddletield, on this same trolley line.
Hubbard is on the trolley line. The towns
named above give it three competitors
which are near it. But the towns have
grown rapidly, land In the vicinity having
risen 60 per cent in value, while the town
property has more than doubled. Values
of farms are increased as far away as five
miles on theso Ohio trolley roads, and the
state is being rapidly gridlroned with them.
Interest of the Farmers.
The Cleveland & Wooster electric rail
way, fifty-six miles in length, has injected
new life into all the villages along Its line
and Increased the prices of farm products,
as well as-the price of land, very materi
ally. Connected with this enterprise an
Incident is worthy of mention. The road,
as first laid out, paralleled the public high
way nearly, nine miles, from Medina to
Seville. The farmers along the road con
cluded that it would be an opportunity to
hold up the road for a high sum for right-of-way
as long as It was a corporation.
The company halted on these conditions.
The8 farmers a few miles west made some
investigations of electric railway effects on
farm values and benefits, following which
they offered a free private right-of-way to
the road's projectors to get Us location
their way. Examination of the latter
route was made by engineers and found
practicable. The people along the first
route thought it all a bluff, but when they
saw substantial movements along the lat
ter line they, in turn, offered a free pri
vate right-of-way. This was rejected and
they were told they had lost their oppor
tunity. Yet determined to have an eleo
trlc road, they offered a large cash bonus,
together with a free right-of-way. This
wus rejected, as the contract was closed
for construction over the second line. Op
portunity tapped at their door once it was
not taken advantage of and was lost.
Quick and cheap transportation for milk
from the farms to the towns for table use
Is a source of large profit.
Bad roads frequently prevent farmers
from reaching markets when the prices of
products are highest. The electrio lines,
with their low rates for package freight,
baled ray. corn, oats, fruit, potatoes and
other necessaries, are a great benefit to the
farmer.
Incidental Benettts.
Hotels and liveries In the small towns
are benefited greatly by visitors who go to
the country from the city on business In
stead of waiting for the malls. At small
cost they can come and go In a day, after
driving out from the station eight or ten

miles. Salesmen on the road prefer the
trolleys, because they are cheap and swift
and run every hour or two, to and from
the terminal points.
An Important fact In the development of
business along the lines of these electric
roads is that factories for mnklng various
light weight goods spring up in them to
satisfy local demand.
With the attractive facilities of the su
burban interurban railroads, social Inter
course relieves the monotonous life of the
farm by bringing people eight, ten and
twenty miles apart Into tho relation of near
neighbors. It Is for this reason, as well
as for business reasons, that tho shrewd
and solid farmers of Ohio, Indiana and
other states give rights-of-way and are
glad to take stock in the roads, that have
paid good returns on the Investment.
The electric rullroad Is essentially the
farmers' railroad, as tho fact of experience
for ten years In Ohio proves beyond any
kind of question, and tho aid they give to
the trolley lines because It secures mutual
Interest and mutual beenflts.
One Ohio farmer says: "The electric
road which passes through my furm diag
onally I at first considered a great disad
vantage, but changed my thinking when,
by the aid of the telephone and the elec
tric road, I had repairs within two hours
all made on my machinery during harvest
time that ordinarily would have laid me
out for as many days, and saved my crop."
Greater in one way than all other Influ
ences for the good of the farmer and the
family Is the means it gives to the sons
and daughters to attend, for low fates,
with frequent and rapid service, the vari
ous educatlonnl Institutions of the cities,
and also to witness public celebrations,
listen to lectures and orations, and to see
eminent actors and artists at the theaters
and auditoriums In the large cities.
Nebraska Project.
Two years ago wealthy and enterprising
citizens of Akron, O., came out to Ne
braska to Investigate the subject of build
ing an electric road from Omaha and Lin
coln to Beatrice. They resolved to drive
their enterprise Into one of the richest nnd
most beautiful regions on earth, and it is
now a fixed fact. The road Is under con
tract, will be built as rapidly as money,
engineering skill and energy can build it
between the two big citiea, Omaha and
Lincoln. Lincoln, tho growing and pros
perous political and educational center of
the state, and Omaha, the chief city In
population and wealth.
Who can estimate the educational ad
vantages of cheap and rapid transit from
the doors of the farmers' families and
within four or five miles of the electric
road and to thoso who live In the towns
and on farms along Its line? Lincoln Is
the home of the State university and other
great Institutions. Omaha, with its
Crelghton university, medical schools, com
mercial colleges. and hospitals, the great
Auditorium and theaters which are the
homes of art, are ortly a few of the ad
vantages which the children alongjhe line
of the Omaha & Lincoln railroad can have
brought within easy reach at a cost far
less than the people of this part of the
country have ever known.
The managers and principal owners of
this grent enterprise are Ohio men of high
character and strength, seconded by local
men well known to every community the
road is proposed to touch. These gentle
men desire and should have the friendly
co-operation and support particularly of all
property holders and residents throughout
the territory traversed.

VICTIM OF SAVAGE ASSAULT
Alexander Schnlts, a I'nlon Pnelflo
Ilrakenian, Badly Beaten by
an Expressman.
Alexander Schultz, aged 24, an extra
brakeman on the L'nlon Pacific, was found
In an unconscious condition on the side
walk on Garfield street at 4 o'clock yes
terday afternoon, and was carried Into
the house of Frank Perchall, 1318 Garfield
street, where he was a short time after
wards examined by Police Surgeon Ken
nedy. After remaining unconscious for
about two hours he recovered his senses
and was able to give some account of him
self. He was badly beaten and kicked on
the head and body. Both eyes were black
ened and the skin was severely bruised
and cut across the forehead. He com
plained of pains In his chest and abdoflleri.
Altogether he was a badly used up man.
It was at first thought that his skull was
fractured, but a closer examination proved
that the wound was not that severe.
Schultz says he was playing with a ball
on Garfield street when he was assaulted
from behind and was knocked down.
While- he lay on the street he says he
recognized his assailant as Gus Chrlstlan
son, an express man of South Omaha,
with whom he has been acquainted for
a number of years. Schultz says Chrls
tlanson, while kicking him on the head
and body, shouted: "You licked mo five
years ago, but I can lick you now."
A child of Frank Perchall says he saw
the man beating and kicking Schultz and
then ran away. Schultz Is unable to give
any reason why the man should have
assaulted him, as he was attacked from
behind and had not seen him until after
he was knocked down.
While the Injuries are of a very Bevere
character, Dr. Kennedy does not hink
they are serious, although this cannot be
determined with certainty for some time.
It may be several days before the result
of the kicks on the chest and abdomen
can be determined.
The assault was reported to the police
in South Omaha and they are looking for
Chrlstlanson.
Chrlstlanson was later arrested In South
Omaha. His version of the affray Is that
the injured man started to assault him and
he fought in self-defense Instead of strik
ing -his opponent from behind.

Vaudeville at Crelghton-Orpheam.
It's a laughing bill down nt the vaude-
vllle house this week, with most of the fun
set to music. Four acts are of this na
tttre, nnd each of them Is entitled to head
line honors. Jack Nurworth, who Is just
what tho bill says, "the life of every
party," hasn't been with us for several
seasons, but we were all glad to welcome
him back yesterday, and he responded to
the welcome with his best efforts. Including
a cute little limp, due to a case of sciatica
that he expects to work up Into new Jests
before the week Is over. In addition to his
own way of making fun, Mr. Norworth
Is about the only one In his class who sue
ceeds In producing local hits that are
worth while. He sung n couplo of verses
last night that were Immense In their
way. Cole and Johnson are better than
ever. Success has not marred the ex
cellence of their work, while experience has
enabled them to tone down whatever rovtgh
spots might have been noted In their per
formance, and now they are surely refined
If there Is a refined sketch In vaudeville.
They have some new songs, cast on higher
lines than some of their popular successes,
and their style is mere than ever polished
and effective. Louise Dresser sings two
comic nnd one sentimental ballad In
faultless manner, and Is as populnr as
ever. Lydla Yenmans Titus Is something
of a disappointment, although her Imita
tions are cleverly done. Hayes and Heally
well, they are the real laugh makers of
the evening. Sawed-off Hayes has been
funny for many years, even before he was
fat, and Heally is good In his way, and
the two In action nre about as amusing as
anything could be. Drako's sheep and
dogs afford a novelty In the line of animal
training, while his leaping greyhound Is a
wonder. The Fowlers do a clever athletic
stunt, some of their tricks being extremely
difficult, and all gracefully executed. The
pictures are pleasing, particularly those
showing the trial of the New York Cen
tral's liectric locomotive.
"Kerry Bon" nt the Krng.
Joe Murphy's name on the bill board Is
all that is needed to secure full houses
at the theater where ho Is showing. He
doesn't seem to get any older, but Is the
same Dan O'Hara he has been for well,
never mind how mnny years. See Murphy,
nnd you'll think time has stood still for
many a day. The humor of the good old
play, "Kerry Gow," mellows with the
flight of years, and the doings of the vil
lage smith are as Interesting now as when
they were first set before the public. Mr.
Murphy can still play a tune on the anvil
as be shoes the horse, and the whole
piece is still presented with the careful at
tention to detail that won for It Its first
success. Two fine audiences assembled at
tho Krug yesterday to witness the play,
nnd the satisfaction felt was expressed In
round after round of applause., "Kerry
Gow" will be given again this evening,
and on Tuesday evening "Shaun Rhue"
will be put on, Mr. Murphy playing Larry
Donovan, alias Red John until the close
of the engagement, which Is Wednesday
night, with the usunl matinee.
"The Silver Slipper" nt the Boyd.
Twice yesterday, and both times to
audiences that were large and apparently
well pleased, "The Silver Slipper" was pre
sented at the Boyd. The piece has not
been essentially changed since first offered
here, the Interpolation of "Zanzibar" In
the first act being about the only new
feature. This song hardly warrants the
stress that has been laid on It. Snltz Ed
wards is the comediun and works like a
Trojan to put some life Into the rather
funeral progress of the incidents, but the
story is too hopelessly British to ever be
come a decided vogue In the west, where
action and not repose Is the essential.
Lora Lleb is still the girl from Venus, and
Is very ' attractive personally and sings
well. Beatrice Golden Is a good Wrenne,
and tho rest of the company is fairly
calculated to do what Is required by book
and score. The engagement was for the
one day only.

Men Growing Weaker
Strenuous Life is Ulnz Up Their
Vital Forces and Energy Faster
Than Nature Replaces Them.
As a result many are being stricken
with paralysis, locomotor ataxia, and
nervous prostration. To overdo any
thing is harmful, and a continuation
of It will wear out the strongest man.
Overwork, worry, braln-tlre, high liv
ing, dissipation and other excesses
and abuses waste away the most vital
elements of the blood, brain and nerve
forces, and disease sets In. At first
there will be a general Indisposition,
poor appetite, indigestion, severe
headache, wakefulness and weakness
In the back and spine, the temper irri
table, the spirits depressed, the mem
ory poor and the mind weakened, end
ing in premature decline or decay.
Dr. Chase's Blood and Nerve Food Is
composed of the same elements that
have been wasted and worn out in the
blood, brain and nerves. By making
new blood it turns weakness Into
strength and forces new life and the
vigor of youth Into every portion of
the body, restoring the patient to per
fect manhood. Weigh yourself before
taking It. Price 60 cents.
