The Omaha real estate exchange has been re-organlzed and new by-laws have been adopted. The Exchange expect to do a rustling business until ftor the Trans-Mlsslsslppl Exposition. The police have succeeded in making several good hauls of crooks during the past week. Omaha has an excellent force and it Is maintained at a much less cost than many of her sis ter cities. The First Christian church at Twen ty-thlrd and K streets, South Omaha, was dedicated last Sunday afternoon, by appropriate services. The church organization aurls out entirely free from debt The verdict of the coroner's jury In the inquest over the remains of Miss Ella Johnson, who was run over and killed by a Burlington train, was com pletely exonerated from all blame for the accident. The list of conventions for Omaha In 1898 continues to grow. The last added Is the American institute for Homeopathy.

O. U. W. bands have been engaged for the occasion, and there will be a grand display of fire works in the evening. There is considerable complaint around the state deaf and dumb instl tute of the meddlesome character of some of Its employes. It is alleged that a watchman around the grounds has employed boys armed with rifles to watch other boys from the orchard Only a few weeks ago one of these lads shot a dog which was going along the road with soma little children at the Instigation of the boy's mother. If Prof. Gllllaple sanctions this kind of police regulations around state institu tions, then the sooner the board of pub lic lands and buildings is made aware of it the better. The law Is amulv suf ficient to protect the Interests of state Institutions without the placing of guns in the hands of children to do police duty, it is a thing that will be condemned by all citizens. The South Omaha Stock Yards com pany anticipate early shipments of took to that market and are preparing to receive all that comes. South Omaha prices have a reputation of be ing as good as can be had.

Carr of this city re turned Monday from Buffalo, where the DocUr and Mr. Carr attended the annual session of the Supreme Lodge of the Ancient Order of United Work men. They report an excellent time and that the order In the United States Is in a very prosperous condition. The standing committee of the Omaha Commercial club, at the sug gestion of President Dumont will be reorganized. It is claimed that but few of the members of these commit tees have been of any value to the club, and the president proposes to select men who work for the interests of Omaha. The club has decided to make an effort to secure the meeting of the Christian Endeavor convention in this city in 1898. The South Side Improvement Club A Sew and Remarkable Jesuit Hook. We have been looking through the third volume of the "Outlines of Dag- m ttlc Theology, ".by the Rev. Sylvester J. Hunter, S. J., just published. It contains things well worthy of note by Protestant controversialists, and proves that in doctrine the Jesuits are rapidly grow ing worse, .1 nstead of better. It Is well known that Romish theologians divide .religious sworshlp into three kinds, viz., dulia, to be given to the saints; hiptr-dulia, to be given to the Virgin' Mary," and Uitria, due to God only. JesuittHuntor writes that: "The crucifix, orimage or Christ crucified, and even the Bimple figure of a cross, deserves the honor of relative htfria, as It Is declared in the Pontifical." ("Out lines," vol. III., p. 474.) There is, however, a dlOIculty In the way of ac cepting sthls steachlng, namely, the Second 'Commandment of God; but this difficulty theJJesult brushes on one side In the most daring fashion. In truth, he writes: "The Commandment for bade the Israelites to fashion images and offer latria to them, as was done by the natlonJr around them; and this Commandment served its purpose, but does sot bind Christians." (Ibid., pate 6.) We .need hardly add that Mr. Hunter produces no authority what ever for his most daring assertion. Is it, we may wen asic, possiDie for a nominally Christian man to commit a graver sin than that of abrogating one of the Commandments of Almighty God, merely because it comes in the way of his pet theory about Images? Mr. Hunter's assertion proves that he feels acutoly how contrary image-worship is to the written Word of God. It Is with the Jesuits i now, as with the Scribes and Pharisees condemned bv our Lord injjthe words: "Thus have ye made the' Commandment of God of none effect by your tradition." uomisn i controversialists are never tired of talking about the certainty which can, as they suppose, be found alone withlnthe Church of Rome, There never owes aagreater mistake, There is no" icertalnty in that com' munlon, for almost 'everything in It is In a state of'mlserable uncertainty This is verycandidly made clear by Jesuit Hunter, whotwrltes: "It is per fectly true, that- without special reve latlon, no -one cans have absolute cer tainty that he has received a sacra' ment, or that she Is In the state of grace. "o (Ibid., page 209.) If this be true, It (follows that (there Is not a man or woman in theChurch of Rome, from the pope down, who knows whether he possesses aitrue sacrament or not, or whether hejis on the road to heaven or hell! What a 'miserably uncertain thing the popish religion is I Accord ing to jesuiiinunter, even tne pope cannot tell whether he received the sacrament oft baptism, and no one can prove to him that he is anything else but a heathen! The result of this is that no one knows whether he is a true pope or J not, since no heathen can be a pope. And, further, this uncertainty applies equally to each and all of the other six sacraments of Rome. There is, for instance, the so-called Sacra ment of Order. No Roman priest can have "absolute certainty" that he has received that sacrament, and, there fore, for all)he knows to the contrary, he may still be nothing more than a mere layman, and all his absolutions of his penitents, and all his consecrations at the mass, are every one of them in valid! Alljthla uncertainty arises from the doctrine of Intention taught by the so-called infallible Council of Trent, Session VII , Canon XI., in the following terms: "If anyone saith that in ministers, when they effect and confer the sacraments, there Is not re quired the intention at least of doing what the church does; let him be anathematized." There are many earnest-minded Ro manists who do not believe it possible that the Consecrated Host can be eaten by an animal. The thought of a mouse, for instance, devouring what they be lieve to be the body, blood, soul, divin ity, bones and nerves of Jesus Christ, is altogether too horrible for them to believe. Jesuit Hunter, however, can enlighten them on this subject. He rites: "It is remarked that the Sabred host, if eaten, nourishes the body; that the precious blood, if drunk, produces the effects of wine; that both are subject to be consumed by animals or by lire, and to perish through de cay, precisely as if they were bread and wine. This is perfectly true, and is in full accord with Catholio doctrine." (hitlitut," Vol. III., page 257.) How anyone in his senses can believe that the God who made him can be "con sumed by animals" say by dogs Is in deed a marvel. They who believe it must Indeed have taken leave of their "senses" in more ways than one. It seems, too, that the "precious blood, if drunk, produces the effects of wine." Now, it is very well known that one of the "effects of wine," when taken in large quantities, Is to make men drunk, Will the so called "precious blood" Jesus, If taken in large quantities make the priests the laity cannot get IV blind drunk? What horrible blas phemies Ire involved in the doctrine of Transubstaotlation! Jesuit Hunter has discovered that double Transubstantiatlon sometimes takes place In the Consecrated Host. First of all, the Host is Transubstanti ated into the body of Christ, and after wards, when it becomes "corrupted, through being eaten by an animal, or by being burnt by fire, it is Transub stantiated back again ln'o bread, and the body of Christ goes away from It This marvellous discovery of his thus taught by him: "The Divine presence ceases when these species are corrupted; that is to say, when the change wrought by fire, or the other agencies mentioned this Includes being 'consumed by animals", has gone so far that what is acted on would cease to be bread, supposing It to have been bread in the beginning. It may be hard to say at what instant this result Is at tained, but It Is certain that sooner or later the fire would do Its work, and we should have cinders and not bread When the substance of the body of Christ ceases to be in the corrupting host, It is replaced by that of burning bread, and all goes on as If there had been no consecration." Ibid., p. 257. For all this absurdity Jesuit Hunter does not attempt to produce the slight est snaaow oi proof, it is all assertion, and nothing else. But Is not what he writes quite enough to make papists Dccome innaeisr Cheap Traveling.
