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 I . ' . - ; I H ! - , j j r J i 2 ' I tbnwu . . 4 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.
