BIG MKKTIXG IX INTEREST
OF BETTER .MANHOOD.
Iresl)jtcrlan Cliurth Crowded to
Hear Rev. Birch Speak.
From Monday's Dally.
The congregation at the church
Sunday morning listened to a strong
appeal to feel their responsibility
for the salvation of souls, taking
his text from Romans 8:1-2, Mr.
Birch endeavored to lay on the hearts
of the members of the church their
part which Is not small In the matter
of reaching men and women for
Christ. "A real heaviness" which
would make them go after and work
for the conversion of their friends
and loved o,nes that they might be
saved. It was a characteristic mes-
Chester Birch
sage of the straightforward type for
which Mr. Birch Is noted, keen cutting
but always fair and never coarse.
A feature of the morning service
was the solo by Mrs. Gamble, who
sang the "Ninty and Nine." At the
close a corps of men ushers was or
ganized for the week's meetings, con
sstlng of J. M. Roberts, nead usher,
and Will Ramsey, Will McCoig. J.
W; Gamble, C. C. Parmele, T. M.
Patterson and J, N. Wise as assist
ants. ,
In the afternoon Mr. Birch ad
dressed a men'B meeting In the Pres
byterian church. More than one
hundred and fifty men were pres-
ent and listened with deep Interest
to a Btralght forward heart to heart
talk that will make better every man
who heard It. Music was furnished
by a choir of young men assisted by
the Evangelist and his cornet.. The
meeting was opened by singing "A
Man Among Men," the words and
music of which are by Mr. Birch.
Each man present was presented with
a copy of the song. The title of the
song was taken as the subject of the
address, which was a plain practical
appeal to men to be manly. That
It made a deep Impression on all
present was easily seen. At the con
elusion of the address upon Invita
tion of the men present Mr. Birch
arranged for another men's meeting
for next Sunday in the opera houso
which was kindly donated by Mr
Chas. Parmele, who was In the audi
ence. After this Mr. Birch told the
men how he secured his cornet, and a
little of hla life and then played
Home Sweet Homo" on the cornet
accompanied by Hilt Wescott at the
piano. The men listened with rapt
j attention as the sweet strains pro
duced by this master cornetlst float
led forth. At the close of the se
lection the audience was dismissed
with the Quaker benediction and the
men crowded to the platform to
shake hands with the speaker.
Ah the unusual audience, a very un
twunl one for our city, dispersed the
men were congratulating each other
upon having been privileged to at
tend such a meeting.
At the same hour at the Methodist
church Miss Ida V. Jontz of Omaha
gave an address to the women on the
subject "Something Lost. I Must Find
It." She discussed the lost son, the
lost girl and the lost soul. Her ad
drcB was one of exceptional power
and greatly Impressed those who
were there to hear It. Special music
for this service was provided by
Miss Howard and Mrs. Mae Morgan
and Mlsss Helen and Rith Chapman.
In the evening there was a union
service of the three churches begln-
Ing with a song service by the chorus
which Is becoming more and, more
a source of delight to all lovers of
song. At this time Mr. Birch spoke
on the text found in Psalms 110:16
"I will not forget thy word."
He picKented the bible as the foun
dation for all law and all principle of
real life, as a weapon to dls arm the
enemy and the best means with which
to load souls to Christ, as a guide
to our liven and as a light In the
pnthway of life. Mr. Birch's preach
ing takes on new force and appeal
with each recurring sermon and the

eminent fairness of the man is telling I
strongly with all classes. His work
wll lsurely bring a greal impulse to
the religious life of this city. At this
service as well as the one In the
afternoon a large number sought the
Interest of Christiana in their prayer
either for themselves or for friends.
Railroad Notes From Ashlund.
An altercation between John Mor
ris, an American laborer in Mr.
Bower's bridge gang, and Tonk Con
gelos, an Italian belonging to the
same gang, resulted rather seriously
for both parties. Monday the
trouble between the two men began
In a Joke on te part of Morris last
Sunday night, which Congelos re
sented Monday whiln at their work,
on bridge 44 northeast of the city,
the quarrel was renewed, and Morris
struck the Italian In the fact, being
a much stronger and more powerful
man than he.' This aroused the
Italian's hot blood and he went for
Morris with a steel bar. They were
parted and the bar was taken away
from him. He made another attempt
with a pick but was prevented by
bystanders. A third attempt was more
successful, and a blow aimed with
a pick at Morris head landed on- his
shoulder, making a serious and pain
ful, but not dangerous wound. Rail
road detectives who happened to be
here traced Congelos, who had made
his escape Into Sarpy county w here he
was arrestee Jie was Drought back,
but Morris refused to appear against
him, saying that he was as much to
blame as ttie Italian, and he was let
go. Marshal Granger arrested Con-
gelos and h was kept in the city Jail
over nigni dui aunng tne day ne was
released and allowed to go. Con-
geios na3 Deen in tne employ or Mr.
Bowers for about a year. He was

months. He was at the Burlington

be laid off from work long. Ashland
