"You lazy loots, you never work for Christ," he cried. "The church must be more than a great big, gor geous religious club. The poorest stick you ever looked at as a soul winner is the young preacher, just out of the seminary. He has been taught to build a sermon, but not to win a soul. "About the hardest Job on God's earth Is to be pastor of the average church. Tou grumble and growl, and you're lasy and tlngy, and It's an awful Job. Preacher Caa't Do it All.

He suddenly shook his flat at the audi ence and shouted: "Tou old devil, you can't go to church and pray on Sunday and then go out and vote for the whisky gang on Tuesday. You've got to be careful of your actions, Paul said, 'If meat make my -brother to offend I will eat no meat while the world standeth,' and he threw the meat he had Just bought on the floor of the butcher shop and a yellow dog grabbed it and ducked up an alley with It.

If all the preachers of all de nominations would win one soul a month we would add 1.400,000 to Christ's army In a single year. Too much church work Is like a squirrel In a cage, lots of action, but gets nowhere."

Invents Airship that is Controlled from the Ground PARIS, Sept. 15. An Italian engineer. Louis Rota, has solved the prouie'm of holding an object motionless in space, according to the Marseilles correspondent of the Petit Parlslen.

Rota's apparatus Is spindle-shaped, twelve feet, long and two feet In diameter and can carry a weight of ninety pounds. It is eaid td remain motionless in a wind of considerable velocity, but If the wind becomes very strong, it rises automatic ally until It reaches a calmer region of the air.

MAY COMPROMISE ON LIQUORJUESTION Kellogg Offers Resolution State Federation Be Neutral on the Wet or Dry Preposition. UP FOR DISPOSITION, TOD " The contest in the convention i.t tho State Federation of Labor con cerning its attitude on the liquor Question, scheduled for" this morn ing at 10 o'clock at the court house, will be compromised, If a resolution offered yesterday afternoon by W. H. Kellogg of Omaha is adopted. It proposes the convention shall remain neutral in the wet and dry fight. Delegates who favor the antl-pro-hlbltlon resolution reported from committee, however, declared the neutrality resolution would in effect be a victory for the drys and it was said that a contest on the floor was inevitable. Mr. Kellogg's resolution states that "diversity of opinion on the liquor question makes a definite stand by ,the convention inadvisable." Last year the federation, by reso lution, favored just regulation of the liquor traffic. At the morning session the motion to postpone was carried by a vote of 20 to IS, about twenty-five delegates not being recorded. R. H. Uonohoe of the local iron workers moved the adoption of the resolution as reported by the committee. George I Burr of Lincoln, a printer, moved postponement of the discussion. Those who spoke for an immediate hearing expressed surprise that an at tempt should be made to ngitate the issue and declared the brewery workers as members of the federation wanted only the same consideration as would be (Continued on Page Two, Column Two.)

The amount asked for today was 250.000,000 ($1,250,000,000). The premier also announced that nearly 3,000,000 men had enlisted. He made this statement in reviewing the financial and military situations, do far as military exigencies per mitted; but this requirement neces bltated in many instances only vague references to the trend ot events. The growing expenditures for tho war were emphasized by the premier. lie said 'ii average dally cost from April 1 to ' end of June was 2,700.000 $13,CHA).00J); !il July 1 to July 17, 3,000,000; from July IS to September 11, 3,600,000.

Comparing actual expenditures since the last vote of credit with CHtlmatea, Mr. Asqulth said there had been some abnormal Items to dlacloso, which would not be In the public Interest, but the house might take it that thene were ex penditures incurred for the purpose of financing necessary operations. Part of this amount was to be repaid In a few months and the remainder represented advances for future expenditures.

I COUNTRY'S RESPONSE SPLENDID LONDON, Si'pt. 15. "The Ger mans appear almost to have shot their bolt," said Karl Kitchener, sec rrtary of war, today. "Their ad vance In Russia, which at one time averaged five miles a day, has now (I'm In lulled to less than one mile a day. Karl Kitchener's statement was made In a relrw of the war In the Houao of Lords. "The response of the country's calls for recruits has been little short of marvel ous," he said, "but tho problem how to Insure tho field force being kept at full strength Is engaging our close attention, and will, I hope, soon receive a practical solution, I do not for one Instant doubt that whatever sacrifice may prove neoea nary will be undertaken cheerfully by our people." This was the only portion of Earl Kitchener's speech which might be re garded as a reference to the possibility of conscription. Three Million Men Knllst. Mr, Asqulth, In his speech In the House of Commons, estimated that the weekly gross expenditure henceforth would not exceed ,000,000. It was his opinion that the new vote would carry the country through to the third week of November. "These figures throw some light, in money terms, on the contribution we era making to the war," he continued. "I do not wish to say even that we are dolnt all we can, all we ought, but as at tempts are constantly being made with whatever Intention, but with the most mischievous effect to belittle and dis courage our efforts, I give some com parisons between peace and war flKurev "Since the outbreak of the war, It will be found, an aggregate of not far short of 3,000,000 has enlisted In the army and navy. Recruiting on the whole has kept up well, but, 1 regret to say, In the last few weeks has been falling off." Nearly Million Maklna Shell. Regarding the work of the munitions department, the premier said all that was now necessary to complete this great and necessary task was an adequate supply of labor, unskilled as much as skilled. There was no field wherein women could do more useful work. Tho minister of munitions had established twenty shell factories and eighteen mora were In. course of construction. In all 716 controlled establishments were under the department. In these factories, he said, 800,000 workmen were now em ployed, and the country had vastly ex ceeded any standard dreamed of before the war. Rev iewing (he military situation, Mr. Asqulth stated that In France and Flan ders the position of the British troops had been strengthened everywhere by large reinforcements of men and muni tions and that there had been a consid erable extension of line taken over from the French, ftalns In Dardanelles. In the Dardanelles, he continued, the British had made substantial gains, though they had not succeeded In dis lodging 'he Turks from the crest of the hills. The British now hold a front of more than twelve miles. In the east Mr. Asqulth said the Rus sian army establishments Is unbroken. He asserted that the superiority of the Germans was only In artillery and that their objective was still far out of reach. "They succeeded in forcing back the fine of our gallant allies with artillery and have taken several fortresses," ha continued, "but all accounts show that the Russian retreat la being conducted In a masterly fashion and that the Rus sian army Is still unbroken. The as sumption of supreme command by the ciar Is the most significant proof that could be given of the unalterable de termination, from highest to lowest, of the Russian people." fin rh"i In West, Regarding military operations the war secretary said: I "For the last few months the front held ; by the allies In the west has been prac i tlcally unchanged.
