SEIZING THE PRESS.
huk Grant Thinks that the III* City
Papers Ars • Hindrance to Church
Progress flood Paper Hcttsr Than
Many Churches.
NR time there
were a couple who
did not get along
lS| very well together;
they often fell out
and each thought
the other hardly
^^^B treated him fair.
They were a wolf
and a lamb. So the
wolf ate the lamb,
and found he
agreed with him much better than evar
before.
That la one way of settling misun
derstandings The pulpit would rac
ornmend that the church go up and taka
Ml the newspaper, for we are abundantly
P able to possess It.
Now let me preachlfy a little and
•bow (1) why and (2) bow we should
take possession of the newspaper.
1. Why. (1) Ilecause every church
man feels that It Is the gospel and that
alone which will solve society’s prob
lems. The principles of Jesus are of
Infinitely more use to be applied to cur
rent events than the principles of any
political party. (2) The news vehicle
la the very best extant medium for
reaching the people. Pulpits ars good,
and ao are books; tbe quarterly review
Influence# few, tbe monthly a few
more, tne weekly religious perioaicai
■till more, but best of all Is the news
^jtper. News Is the best bait. Wby
should not the best, principles have the
best vehicle whereby to get to the pub
lic eye? (3) Preaching originated before
the days of newspapers. New days de
mand methods. Truth ought to change
clotbea often to keep strong and
healthy. Nothing needs up-to-dateness
like the gospel. Conservatism Is good,
but sometimes there Is too much of a
good thing. (4) While the pulpit will
always remain the best menns of per
sonal persuasion, the printed page Is
the best handle to public opinion. The
church has quite as much to do with
public Ideals as with Individual char
acter In the business of saving the
world. For Instance, by arousing public
opinion to secure the enforcement of
the law against gambling houses, the
church would do quite a* much good
to the public as to persuade a hundred
youths not U> gamble. (5) As a business
proposition, look at It. The object of
the church 1* to Influence people. To
that end she spends much money.
Business demands it be Invented In the
most paying ways. Say It take an In
vestment of a half million and an an
nual outlay of fifty thousand dollars
to run the churches of Omaha (a con
servative estimate) wouldn't half of this
amount pretty handsomely subsidize a
good dally paper, by which, on the
r wings of news, the popular mind could
be Influenced more than by preaching?
2. How? (1) Not by making a denom
inational organ, or In any sense her
alding the claims or peculiar doctrines
of any sect. The day Is past when
these are of great Interest to the peo
ple at large, and the day Is here when
all evangelical churches are standing
shoulder to shoulder proclaiming the
same gospel and making common cause
again all sin and humbug and sham. (2)
Let this Christian newspaper stand for
such a platform as this: Knforcement
and not evasion of law ngalnst the
criminal class; public officers must
keep their oaths; the saloon must go;
gambling must be crushed, like a ven
omous snake; prostitution must not be
t_1.1 ah ln/llHA/,«lir. A
first duty of a state Is to conserve Its
morality, business prosperity Is sec
ondary; the spirit, and principles of
Christ Is the only solution of the labor
question; greed is the chief enemy of
society; the state must not connive at
affiliation with any sect or church; pur
ity of elections; honesty among legis
lators; and. Indeed, all questions of
public Import are to be treated, always
applying to them the principles of Jus
tice, honor and the people's welfare,
and never the false and fatal heresies
of policy and greed. I-et the public
mind become familiar with the reiterat
ed question. Is It right? No newspaper
y can do this that is tied to a party or
Is merely working for the business in
terests of a community. (3) Kvcry coun
ty In the stats ould have one Chris
tian county newspaper If the Christian
people would co-operate for Its support.
One such organ would preach more
gospel than a doxen ordinary churches.
Nothing In these remarks Is Intend
ed to Imply that the pastors! cars aud
teaching of present church organisa
tions should be st all superseded, nor
that newspapers, ss st present conduct
ed, are especially wicked. The pulpit
believes our existing newspapers srs
Important conservators of public moral
ity, but that is not In Issue here. Our
contention Is simply Ibis Christ's
business ought to have the beat possible
agencies. The newspaper Is the beet
agency to mold public opinion There
fore Christ ought to have II.

Tk* r«Bk!» Vlllala'* Krmiutlr Death
Stirred On* Woman'* Heart
From the Chicago News; The prin
cipal actors In the play had waded
through quagmires of blood-curdling,
hair-raising mystery and a wilderness
of soul-depressing, tantalizing doubt,
dragging a hydra-minded audience
through with them.
At last they tottered on the verge of
the scene where the female lmper-,
sonator of devlllshness commits the
grave error of being found out and
winds up her career by yanking a few
stray locks of her hair out by the roots
; as a prelude to swallowing the
fatal pill of Infinitesimal dimen
sions, the hero raves, the outraged
mother-ln-law goes daft and all the
other cut-and-drled incidents Indlge
, nous to the last act of a modern drama
pile up thick and fast before the senses
i of a muddled hoime. When they got to
that point one thrilling chapter of
I mimic life followed In hot haste on the
: trail of its predecessors and the ma
jority of lookers-on who had been In
clined to play a game of Inappreclatlve
freeze-out during the first two acts
warmed up to a knowledge of (he fire
and vigor being displayed and their
outbursts of applause were frequent
and sincere. One of the most Interested
looking people In the whole ibealer was
a woman In the sixth row of the par
quet. Her face was pale and the lower
Jaw was set In that mold of rigidity
which naught but the most Intense feel
ing can produce; her eyes never wan
dered from the scene of action and for
a dangerously long period she leaned
forward In a stale of suspended ani
mation, determined not to lose one frac
tional part of a wink or nod necessary

The female villain started out on her
last series of dying gasps; her atage as
sociates grouped themselves effectively
around her and watched her In well
simulated. silent horror; a hush like the
presence of some unconquerable. In
visible power settled down over the vast
audience and the face of the woman In
the sixth row grew whiter still. A few
seconds elapsed; she sighed. Another
second and she sighed again. The ex
pressions of solicitude were deep and
long-drawn out and audible several feet
away. iCverybody within earshot who
was not too much engrossed turned to
look at her sympathetically. Her hus
band touched her on the shoulder as a
means of restoring her to consciousness.
Hhe sighed once more and then her
pent-up emotions broke out In on*
piercing, sibilant whisper.
"Oh," she lamented. "I’d give |S to
know who makes her dress skirts."
The actress died, but most of the peo
ple In the neighborhood of the sixth row
did not get much out of It.
WHEN BABY WAS LOST.
A Great Deal of Kscltement Prevailed
for a Short Time In flee Pamlly.
There was considerable excitement
In the Moran family, of Cbelton Hills,
the other evening when it was dls
i covered that the pride of the house, a
sturdy young man of 3 years, was mys
teriously missing. He had been con
siderable of a rover from the time bl*
well-starched dresses gave place to
kilts, but his wanderings hud been
limited to the house and yard, and thus
It was that when, about 7 o'clock In
the evening, the little Fauntleroy was
wanted and was not found, the anxiety
prevailed. The neighbors’ houses were
all visited and each family was Invited
to participate In the search, while In
turn one after another of the patrol
coated officers detailed to lend their as- !
: slstance-to listen In out-of-the-way
' localities for a youthful voice raised In j
; treble entreaties for help, and In by- ,
ways to seurch with lanterns for the ,
wanderer. It was all In vain, how- j
ever, and as one after another reported
to the anxious mother the III success j
with which they had met she became j
almost frantic, while picturing her
darling alone in a great city—beyond
the Influences of her tender care and
subject lo all the Indescribable daiigers
which one In her position might fancy.
At lust she burst Into a lit of hysterical
sobs, and then It was that a still small
and very sleepy voice emanating from
beneath the old-fashioned sofa, softly
Inquired: "What's a matter, mamma?"
That was all, but it settled the dis
turbance, and s proclamation was is- ;
sued notifying the good people of the |
lull that the lost had been found.

In Japan the nose is the only feat
ure which attracts attention. The nose
determines the beauty or ugliness of
the face, according as It Is big or
small. This 1s probably due to the
fact that differences iu noses constltule
about the only distinction Imtween one
Japanese face and another. In Jupnn

city, readers out
side, to whom the
namns of the duke
and his fiancee c m
vey no particular
meaning, will find more of ro
mance In another matrimonial af
fair, which. It Is said, will culmi
nate in a wedding within a couple of
weeks. The novelist has never woven
a tale of more Improbability than tbs
plain, unvarnished story of the life and
social triumphs of Mabel Wright, from
the time of her Introduction to the
Inner circle of New York society, her
capture of It and one of It* moat exclu
sive member*, to her separation and di
vorce the other day In a Dakota town,
and her prospective marriage to the
heir presumptive to one of the oldest
and foremost families of a Kuropean
court. It la almoat Cinderella In real
American life.
Mabel Curtis Wright was the daugh
ter Of a carpet designer, a man who
had only a moderate Income, and lived
In a fair, but not aristocratic, New
York boarding house. There was ab
solutely nothing In her origin nor aur
roundings 10 warrant, imy
of more than the ordinary, hum-drum
life of an American woman of the mid
dle das*, except her beauty. That at
tracted attention, and her good nature
and good sense completed the conquest
of those who came In contact with her
Hhe was Introduced Into "society” at
Newport, and, for once let It be said
to the credit of New York "society,"
usually the crudest and most, shoddy of
all flimsy creations, she was received
and welcomed for the sake of her own
sweetness, was paid attention by all
the swells, and at the last, was won by
one of the best, "catches” of the sea
son, Mr. Fernando Yznaga, the mar
riage taking place In March, 1S90, In
the comparatively humble apartments
of her father and mother. As the wife
of a millionaire Mrs. Yznaga had en
Jfee#to alj the social functions of New
York, and spent much time In Europe,
meeting the very best people* on both
sides of the Atlantic. But Mr. Yznaga
had already been divorced from one
wife at her instance—the sister of Mrs.
W. K. Vanderbilt, before he married
Miss Wright. Two year* ago there
were rumors of differences between the
Yzangas. Early this year, while In
London, they separated. The wife came
over here and settled In Dakota, where
she secured a divorce last week. Her
husband was represented by counsel,
but made no defense, and the cause was
"Incompatibility,” which may cover a
multitude of matrimonial sins.
Now comes the continuation of the
romance. Where Count Bela Zlrhy and
Mrs. Yznaga first, met does not appear,
nor Is It material. That they met and
that they loved Is certain. For some
time the name of the count has been
whispered in connection with that of
the beautiful American, but, to the
credit of both let It be said, never In
an offensive way. The Hungarian
nobleman has borne himself most chiv
alrously and with rare discretion and
delicacy. But no sooner was the dl
vuicu nniiumirt'u man n huiu iq«
two would be married, and of that there
seems no doubt. While the lady waa
wilh her father In Dakota her lover was
here In New York In strictest retire
ment. awaiting the time of her freedom
from the bonds of matrimony binding
her to Yznaga.
Contrary to the usual custom in such
cases, quite In comrast with the Marl
borough-Vanderbllt affair, In this In
stance the foreigner Is not after
American dollars,but American beauty,
and for love alone. It is he who has
the millions, while his bride will bring
him hut little hut her own sweet self.
Count Zlchy, though at present only
a Lieutenant In the Austrian army. Is
of the 12th Halier-Hussars, one of the
most arlstoeratlc regiments In Europe.
He is a brother-in-law of Count An

ming of a hat that will surely strike
a sympatbetle chord In the gentle bo
soms of her sisters along the Mississ

"I went down to an estblishment on
Sixth avenue the other day,” said she,
“snd selected s hat I liked untrlmmed,
because I wanted to use some feathers
I had on hand. Then I took It upstairs
to the trimming department. It was a
long time before I could find anyone to
wait on me When I did get attention
It was from an arrogant girl with her
hands on her hips and a swagger that
was made for a duchess and so was a
misfit on her, who refused utterly to
touch my hat. I finally had to undo It
and show h»r what I wanted. She
was so Insolent about It that I gave her
a bit of my mind and went away. 1 went
to another place, snd then to another,
and yet another, until I was tired be
yond expression. Do what I eould I
was unable lo get that bat trimmed!
At last, worn out snd desperate, I
asked one girl: Will you tell me why
I can't get a hat trimmed here In New
York’’ The answer was that unless I
COUNT J5ICHY.
I bought at leant ff> worth of trimmings
from the firm or all the material In tbs
| first place, no house would touch It.
’ Then I wanted to know If It was pos
sible to get such a simple thing done
In the city, and was told that It was
not expected. I went home In disgust.
I have plenty of money. I have lived
In several cities and never before bad
any such trouble they slways charge
enough to make It very profitable.
Finally, 1 took a Sunday paper, and at
last fofind an advertisement of a wo
man away down town who did such a
thing. I took that hat from West One
Hundred-and-Thlrd street to Beat
Twenty-seventh street and had It dons

| In the address prepared by Mra
Elizabeth Cady Htanton for tbe celebra
i tlon of her eightieth birthday In New
York recently she pointed out what MR
steps she would wish to see women taki
In their progress toward reform and
equality. She urged that, aa In the past
they had worked to secure from tb*
, state tbe aame rights, immunities and
privileges enjoyed by men, they should
now demand from tbe church then*
things.
■ "First," she said, "we must see that
the canon laws, Mosaic code, scriptures
prayer books and liturgies be purged
| of all Invidious distinctions of sex, ol
all false teachings as to woman's char
acter and destiny.
“Second, we must demand an equal
place In the offices of the church ai
pastors, elders, deacons; an equal vote*
In the creeds, discipline, in all buslneai
matters, and In the aynods, conference!
and general assemblies.
“Third, we must insist that all un
worthy reflection on tbe sacred charac
ter of the mother of the race, aucb ai
the allegory of her creation and fall, and
Paul’s assumptions as to ber social
status, be expunged from our church
literature, finch sentiments cannot In
spire tbe rising generations with ra
sped for their mothers.
"Fourth, we must demand that thi
pulpit be no longer desecrated with
men who read these Invidious passagei
of scripture and preach from texts tbal
teach tbe subordination of one-half tbt
human race to the other.”
