ha was the Ufa of the game all the way
through and, waa roundly applauded every
time he came to bat. stealing three banes
'o help things along..
Three pitchers were tried out during the
.,. .rh being worked three Innings.
Noah was the Tlrst to be tried and he made
' a good Impression on the fans ana manage
ment, so good that Pa wired Columbus that
h. would nav ir00 for him. the price asked.
SVlille he did not let himself out, but clearly
ihowed he had a cool head, a good change

balls which properly belonged to Rube

the wonder of all, considering that he lias
been working Indoors all aeason.
Two members of Bradford's team had bad
days, Casey and C. Clair not being able to

PLEADS FOR ROOM 1 i HEARTS
Christ Is Ever Kseckisg at the Door.
Mara Rev. 8. D. Dotcber.
"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."

artificial food. We tried everything recom

artificial food but could barely keep the
baby alive, and at the age of five months
he weighed no more than at birth. When
eight months old he had gained very little,

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

MEN DOOMED TO C Oft SETS
Arbiters of Male Fashloa Declare
for straight Froat ssi
Was Waist.
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

this garment, must be cut wltfc either 'con

REBIKE THOSE AT EASK IN 7.ION
Dr. I,. 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

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

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. It was too short to resell
to the bottom of the cistern. So two of tha
men held it while Goettch climbed down
and rescued the baby. ,, Th moment thla
burden was removed th hands seemed ta
close and sank beneath the water.

Several minutes were consumed In grap

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. All their efforts were In vain.
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

OMAHA, March 28. 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.
