"Make Room for Christ" waa the subject of the sermon of Rev. S. D. Dutcher at thi First Christian church Sunday morning. HIb text waa Revelations iii:20. "Behold I stand at the doof and knock. If any man hear my voice and open the door I Will como in to lilm and will sop with him and he with Me." - Rev. Mr. Dutcher Illustrated his discourse by the memorial window In the new church wherein Christ la depicted as knocking at a door. "In such a manner Is Clirlst knocking at the door at our hearts," said he, "Baking forTaMmlasion to our hearts from which He haa been driven. Jegus made this condition, that the first of all our loves muBt be for Him.. When this congregation loves somebody, or thing more than Him then It will be deficient in Its duty to Him. To love riches more than Christ Is to In vite our spiritual destruction. If riches In crease act not your hearta upon them. Wretched Indeed is the man from whose heart Christ Is barred out. Wretched and poor Is tho church with riches within and Christ without. The door is barred on the Inside. This barred door represents the heart of the unrepentant man. In the old times It was the custom to knock at the door snd announce your nam. So Christ knocks at the door of your hearts and ssys: It is I." The bars to the door of the heart are Ignorance, because it refuses to let the light of Christ's love wlUitn; impenitence, because of the refusal to repent, and un belief, because of refusal to accept Christ. I plead with you to believe thla message I bring to you, to reallxe Its Importance. This message is 'Believe on tho Lord Jesus Christ.' He comes to you this morning and is now and ever knocking at the door of your hearts.' He Is ever knocking at the door, be it In the valley, In your house, on the mountain tops, the sea or the streets of the city. He knocks evermore and pleads to be let within. He was once ncn, out became poor that He might be with us gnd for us to show us the way."

FEDERAL CONTROL OF RAILROADS Several Ideaa Advaared by Him la Commercial t'oagress Seveateea Yrara Ago Now Comlag to the Froat. WASHINGTON, March 29. tSpecUl.) The habit which hietory has of repeating Itself is again exemplified In the present session of congress and by the administra tion. Soma months ago the president startled the country by announcing, through one of hia advisers, that the power of reg ulating all railroad affairs should rest solely with the federal government. Jhla doctrine to apply to Intrastate as well aa interstate traffic. Senator 1 Eollette la a persistent advo cate of the physical valuation of railroad propertlea as a pre-reo.uisite for the ac ceptance of railroad bonds aa the basis of national back circulation. Again there la a proposition on foot to enact legislation to require all englneera. firemen, conductors and awltchmen em ployed In the operation of railroads to be licensed by the federal government. This propositions are generally regarded as new measures. Yet the published pro ceedings of the commercial congress which met In Kansas City In the spring of 1891 show that a series of resolutions was of fered'by Mr. Deltrlch of Hastings, Neb., afterward governors of the state and later a United Statee senatpr, which covered those very points. Mr. Deltrlch'a resolutions provided In brief that all power of control and regula tion of railroads should be teken from the states and thst the federal government alone ahould have that power. That the I'nlted Statea should be divided Into Inter state commerce dlatrlcts and that parties feeling aggrieved by the decisions of the commissioners In either of the districts should have the right of appeal to a su preme commission, whose decisions should be final. The resolutions also provided for the physical valuation of all railroad prop. ertiea by the federal government and for a limitation of the stochr and bond issue of each corporation In accord with auch val uatlons. Mr. Deltrlch argued that such a policy would result In the enhanced value of such securities and would besides give them a stable value and make them less subject to the manipulation of speculators He also proposed that all switchmen, fire men and engineers should be licensed by the federal authorities, arguing that auch a course would have a tendency to prevent strikes, as a licensed employe would hesi tate long before taking a course which. It Justified, might result in the forfeiture of his license. It is Interesting to note thst all these propositions, which have practically lain dormant for seventeen years, are now being vigorously pushed before tho commerce committees of the house and senate. If they ahould ultimately be enacted Into law It will be the man who fathera them today and not Senator Deltrlch. the real father of the Ideas, who will be given the credit. Odd Names ss signs. "I have often thought." said CongreaB man Ryan of Buffalo, "that an Interesting article might be written on business .gd professional signs. Sometimes the names on the doors of business places are exceedingly appropriate and then again they go by con traries. For instance, I have frequently noticed on my way to the capltol, the sign of a tobacconist. It Is Plugge. . There Is another speaking sign over a store in tha National theater building where Sam Needle Is ready as a theatrical or civilian tailor. Daly at Knightly are plumbers on New York avenue, and yet In spite of the implied willingness of the firm to attend to the wanta of their customera at all hours. ' I understand that their establish ment Is closed promptly at t o'clock every evening. 'Barnwell Robinson Is a veterinary sur geon and his name should appeal to the owners of live stock In need of veterinary services. There is a tailor on a side street nsmed Makover, snd yet I am advised that he does very little In the wsy of repairing, devoting his energies to the very latest sartorial creations. A gentleman named Garden Is a florist up town and someone told me of a saloon In East Washington conducted by a gentleman named Boose. These seems to be very appropriate names and perhaps the same is true of an es tablishment In Buffalo conducted by a Oef man named Snuerweln. But I nover could understand why two of my constltutlentit, named respectively Drink wine and Mumm formed a partnership and opened a ton orlal parlor Instead of a sample room. Overturf la a very good name for a real estate dealer and the gentleman of that name In Buffalo seems to get a fair share of the business. "When Congressman Steele of Indiana, waa defeated for re-election by Fred L.n dis, I am told that he formed a partner ship with a gentleman nsmed Robb. Of course there la nothing In a name, but the combination of Robb and Steele does not seem to have the exactly proper sound aa a name for a firm of attorneys. And I don't know that the Waahlngton sign 'Chew, Chew, and Chew, Attorneya-at-Lsw sounns mucn netter. Home nay I may gather together a long list of such peculiar, appropriate and Inappropriate signs and give them to soma writer. In the meantime, I should like to know how the firm of Irish as English, dealers In furniture and house- hold goods In Buffalo cama to get mixed up, English Is an Irishman and Irish an Englishman." Hlatorlo Balldlaar Rased. The historic old structure made famous in the civil war, known as the Baltimore St Ohio dtpot, has f'nally been raxed. Today nothing but a pile of debris niarks the place whese the station stood, and within a few weeka the depression in which tha rails of the Baltimore A Ohio were laid will have been filled In, and for the first time In half a century It will be possible to walk or drive directly from the capltol to th government printing office along North Capitol street. On the other hand the old Pennsylvania station, made mem orable by tha bullet of Gilteau which felled President Garfield on July J. mi, still stands and will be permlt'ed to remain as It la tor some time. The station building will, it Is understood, be turned Into stoi age warehouse for government us until th plana for the beautlfication of th capital city r perfected.

Nobody loves a fat man nowadays, be cause he can't be In style. To be In style, you know, you got to have the wasp waist. and to get the wasp wslst you've got to wear corsets. Yes, tho men. True, corsets for men are not exactly an Innovation, but neither have they, to date, been exactly tha vogue. Now, however, they are the style. You've got to wear 'em If you would be costumed "comme II faut." They are on sale at gll the stores and you can buy 'em without blushing and mixing your verba. Corsets, however, are necessary abso lutely necessary- They are on exhibition at the American fashion show, which Is In progress In Chicago. Not, of course, the things ot brocaded beauty women wear, but nevertheless cor sets, stout of clotb and with real steels to hook up In front, and1 really,' truly lacing at the back. They'aerve the same purpise aa th feminine garment, that of produc ing a snug walat line. Both In color and cut the styles are op timistic and expensive. They are guaran teed to dispel any atmospheric gloom, ranging aa they do in color from a faint saffron gray to a rich brown mahogany, and passing en route such curious shades as straw and vanilla and "elephant's breath." Back coats are made with a gencroue breadth of shoulder, while fancy runs riot on the subject of cuffs. Some look like envelopes clasped with a button, and others are cut with most radical and daring ara besques. The frock coat of tradition Is rele gated to use at weddings or for older men. The "wesklts" are wondrously and fear fully made. They are braided and shaded, and many of them are cut extremely low, Mr. Croonberg, who Is director of the show, Is a thing of beauty and a Joy for ever in a creation of his own, a grown-up Buster Brown suit. It is a gray plaid, the coat an echo of the Norfolk jacket, flaring Into a graceful tall and fitted snugly at tha waist line, under a belt. The outfit Is de signed for traveling, and with the onion brown waistcoat, with topas buttons worn with It, It looks as If it would exceed the speed limit. Overcoats have changed little, except that the straight line must not appear. The apels, which are the most sensitive part of this garment, must be cut wltfc either 'con centric or eccentric curves, and Btltched with a contrasting shade of silk.

Groh Vara Maay Jola Chareh for Teasaoral Advantages Secered. The rebuke to those who "are at rasa in Zlon," waa the eermon of Rev. Dr. L. Qroh at St. Mark Lutheran church. Twentieth and Burdette streets, yesterday morning. The text was Joln xl:15, "When Jesus therefore perceived tiiat they would come and take Him by force to make Him a king He departed again Into a mountain Himself alone." "Christ had Just performed the miracle of feeding the 6,000 with' the five loaves and three small fishes." said Dr. Groli. "The people were naturally aatounded and they were anxious to make Him their king because of His power in physical things.' Here was a man who could give them all they needed to cfll and to be clothed. They need no longer work for a livelihood. But when Jcgus saw that they wanted Him to be their temporal king He departed from them. 'It Is this way today. There are those who want to attach themselves to the church of Christ becsuse of the temporal advantages which highly honorable connec tion gives them. They seek to take the church by force to make it their headpiece, their shibboleth for advancement In worldly affairs, and their lnsursnce toward happl- nesa In the hereafter. Nominally they are believers snd they have been baptised. True, the scriptures say, 'He thst believeth and Is baptised shall be saved.' But much more than the mere belief and the mere form of baptism is Included In this. "Those who thus seek to attach them selves to the church for Its advantages to them find no Joy In the Christian work. It is all drudgery to them. They cannot aay with the Psalmist, 'I delight In the law of the Lord and In His law shall I meditate day and night. One day In Thy courts 1 better than a thousand. I'd rather be a doorkeeper In the house of th lAsrd than to dwell In the tents of wicked ness.' "Works are not required and are not re ferred to when we speak of something necessary beyond mere belief and baptism. We rannot ssve ourselves by any of the Lpuny efforts of our puny hands and brains. Paul aaid, 'If I give all my goods to feed the poor and give my body to be burned and have not charity. It avalleth nothing.' The wall of thoae who come to the Judg ment eent Ib well known. They rrled, 'iJbri, Lord, have we not prophesied In Thy name and In Thy name done many wonderful works?" But He answered them, 'I never knew you.' "No, these works are not required of the believer and of the seeker of salvation. But the works will come. He who is bap tised and who believes truly will do works gladly. It will be hia chief Joy to labor In th vineyard. He will not seek merely to eat the bread and th fishes, to par take of the good things wlibf gome from affiliation with the Christian church, but he will also strive to be a propagator of good, to carry the advantages on to others, to be a producer andnot a drone."

Morris Christensen, 1326 South Twenty fifth street, waa drowned yesterday after noon In a cistern In the back yard, Intrt which he fell while he had his J-year-olit sen, Willie, In his arms. Tho r-hlld wag saved by the heroism of the father, what stood In seven feet of watef, and by stretching his arms to their highest man aged to keep tho boy above the water until asslstsnce arrived. It was shortly before I o'clock whn tha Sunday afternoon quiet of th neighbor hood was broken by a woman's scresma and Mrs. Christensen waa seen by neigh bors running from the house. She rushed to the home of W. A. Qoettaehe, across the street, and though her excitement had rendered her apeechless, Goettsohe, with L. W. Klpperle and H. 8. Jennings,' followed her In a mad run back to th house, flha. pointed to the cistern. looking down they saw two human hand reaching out of the black water upholding a little child In a red coat, A ladder waa quickly secured.

Several minutes were consumed In grap pllng for the body. Finely It was brought to the surface. But every sign of llf wag gone. Dr. C. F. Clark, 2fia Woolworth avenue, came In response to a telephone messsg and he and Dr. Arthur C. Bunce worked for an hour and a half In an attempt ta bring back life by means of artificial resplr atlon.

As nearly ss could be learned from Mrs. Christensen, who was In a hysterical condU tlon when seen, her husband was walking around the back yard with the baby In his arms. When h stepped bn the Cistern top, which was rotten, It broke,, precipitating him and the child into the water seven feet deep. A small mark On the forehead Indicated that he may have struck hht head In falling and been partially stunned. But the only thought of the father ap parently was to ssve 'his child, and thla he did by making of his owa body a pillar In the water to hold his son up until as sistance arrived. Had he desired he could easily have aaved himself by abandoning the child for the Iron pump pipe run down the middle of the cistern to the bottom and the cistern Is only about ten feet In diameter.

To the Editor of The Bee: I would like to ask throurh, the columns of your paper what has be come of the law that was passed a few years ago providing thut if the delin quent taxes were not put at tho bottom of a tax bill that said delinquent tax-s need not be, paid? There Is and always has been lots of trouble when one goes and pays taxea and ssys: "I Want to pay all taxes on ascertain lot." Then In a few years along comes a lot of bsek taxe that a person knows nothing about. Now a lot of us Were talking It over and concluded Tho Bee was tho , proper place, as It Is always reliable. SUBSCRIBER. Answer The law prohibits th treas urer from Issuing a receipt for more than one year's taxes on one receipt. He is required to give a separate receipt for each year's taxes and Is not allowed to consolidate them. A property owner may pay any one. single year's taxes, but this does not exempt hla property from the levy of any other year, and failure to pay all reaults in delinquency and liability to sale, as such. The treasurer haa no right to remit taxes. Corn show for Bnrt Conaty. TEKAMAH, Neb., March (Special.)
