THE FALLS CITY TRIBUNE , FRIDAY , AUGUST II 1905.
The Funeral of the Soul ,
Sermon preached by Elder J.
Cronenbergcr , minister Christian
church on Lordsday evening
August f , , 1'JOS.
Text "And these shall go
away into everlasting punish
ment. " Matt. 25:46. :
As we are familiar with the
events of death , so are we with
its usual accompaniment a fun
eral. We associate these two
events togethen as the one nat-
urallj and necessarily follows
the other.
Is there not what we may term
the funeral of the soul ? If natural
death occasions a necessity for
one of these events , why not spir
itual death a like necessity for
the other ? If material death
creates the necessity for the re
moval of the dead from the soci
ety of the living , why not a
similar necessity for the funeral
of the soul its removal from the
society of the holy and the
happy ?
1.--Various facts implicated in
such an event.
a. The kindest efforts had
been made to prevent the neces
sity of such a funcial. Who
docs not strive to arrest the hand
of temporal death ; especially in
the case of beloved friends ? And
has there not been much done in
the kindest way to prevent the
funeral of the soul ? Think of
Calvary ; the work of the Holy
Spirit ; the interposition of Provi
dence ; the work of the Church ;
the prayers and. exortations of
the good.
b. It is implied in the funeral
of the soul all the efforts of kind
ness and skill to prevent have
failed. So we judge when we
attend the funeral of the body
tenderest love , and sacrifice , and
assiduity have been baffled. St
with respect to the soul all di
vine and holy agencies havi
striven without success.
c. The funeral of the soul ii
most decisive of the fact that i
is actually dead , We do not bur :
the living , but the dead , Tin
smallest degree of life , the weak
cst pulsation stays us. So will
the funeral of the soul. Tlv
least spark of soul life woul
have arrested it. It is conclude *
that the soul was dead indeed
and all the efforts of God and th
Church failed.
d. With the funeral of th
soul we cannot avoid association
of sorrow. It is always so i
reference to the body. Teai
more bitter have never been she
in the world than those of pion
friends over dear ones , who , b
persistance in sin , were wrappin
themselves in the winding slice
of moral death , and making tl
funeral solemnities at the Gre :
Day a dreadful certainty.
e. The funeral of the so
suggests itself as an inevitab
consequence of its spiritual deat
The rites we perform in co
ncction with burial are associat
with unavoidable necessity
committing the body to t !
grave. The state of natui
death is at war with the heal
and life of survivors. So wi
the funeral of the soul. It mi
be removed. It has no more e
inent of harmony with the he
and happy servants of God th
dead bodies have with livi
ones. The burial of dead soi
is an act of Holy justice whi
the Infinite owes to His own chi
acter and to the happiness
heaven.
2. The various circumstam
attending the funeral of the so
a. Vast numbers will h ;
the rites of burial performed
them at the same time.
b. There will be au inline
assembly convened as witnes
of the funeral. " When the S
of Man shall come in His glc
and all the Holy Angels \ \
Him. " All the Angels ! W
a congregation ! The ape :
speaks of the "innumerable c <
pany. " Fallen Angels will
there. Those of whom J
speaks "are reserved in clu
unto that great day. " "AU
tions , " too , shall be there ,
wonder this is-called the Gi
Day ! How proper to call it the
Great Funeral.
[ 2. The funeral of the soul
i will be attended by exhibition of
their characters. "For God will
bring every secret thing into
i judgment. "
| d. The Word of God fully
supports , that those who are the
condemned will be conscious to
the awful nature of the transac
tion , and the circumstances at
tending the funeral.
e. In this world man executes
the funeral solemnities of the de
parted. Then , God Himself will
be the great Executor.
f. No resurrection to life and
happiness of the buried souls ,
"lie that is unjust shall be unjust
still , and he that is unholy shall
be unholy still. "

WHY OPALS ARE COSTLY.
Perfect Gems Must Bo Bright nnd
Without Streaks or Spots Cut
ting Is Important.
Vi'hiB of opals are usually mot
with in soft formations , where
nothing above ground indicates
their presence. The search for
them , therefore , often requires
considerable time. But it is not
extremely.difllcult , for opals are
generally found near the surface.
Indeed , it was thought for a long
time that they were not to be
found as deep as 12 feet below tin1
surface. This opinion has , how
ever , given way in the light of evi
dence , because opals of great
value have been discovered at a
depth of f50 feet , says the Jewel
ers' Circular.
The value of opals depends
niton several considerations , of
which the principal one is the
color. It is important that they
should be bright and not present
streaks or spots alternating with
uncolored substance. The most
valuable are those which have red
( ires , or mixtures of red , yellow ,
blue and green. Opals of a single
tint are of little value , unless the
tint is particularly striking and
the llgurc beautiful. Indeed , one
of the essential qualities of the
opal is the arrangement of the
figure , which sets ofT strikingly
the hue of the stone.
When the figure is quite regular
and distinct it is the more valua
ble , much less so when the grain
is quite small and irregular.
Sometimes the color appears as
u Binglc blaze or with figures ir
regularly spaced. It may then beef
of a fine ruby red and is much
sought after , but oftcnest the nni
form tint is only green or reddish ,
and has but little brilliancy to
speak of.
The cutting is important for
the opal ; thus a thick stone will
be much less beautiful than a thin
one , which , on losing part of its
volume , loses also the figure. The
foundation tint contributes much
'to the beauty. It ought to be
transparent , slightly milky , und
harmoni/.e fully with the different
reflections of the opal , which ,
when it is really beautiful , pre
sents a variety of hues infinitely
pleasing to the eye.
ANCIENT ROME VS. PARIS.
When the Eternal City Was the
World's Art Center JJeces-
slty to Education.
There was a time' when Ronu
was the world's art center. Nr
artist's education was considered
complete unless he spent SOUK
time in that city , declares Cen
tury. There WHS always to hi
found there a coterie of stroii {
men , many of them famous , ii
whose society the tyro might min
glc and gain much by the compan
ionship. That day has gone by
however , and a change has takei
place. Paris has usurped the prc
rogative of the old city , and it i
to her that the world now turn
for new ideas of art. The Italia :
galleries remain , the mastei
pieces hang in their accustome <
places , the sky is as blue , the ai
as soft , and the outlook as lovely
but the glory of Roman art lif
has departed. The humanity tha
gave the art impetus , the intei
est to the student , has betaken i
r
self from the Seven Flills to th
ir peaceful Seine , where it tlonrishc
r- in the wilder , more luxuriar
growth , nurtured by the hothous
y forcing of ftn-de-siccle ideas , 111
i , trammeled by convention or tr :
; i- dition. For good or bad and tl
it judgment must be left to thereai
er the fact remains that to-dti
Paris is the hub about which tl
it
wheel of art revolves.
Yet from Paris there go ami
ally to the Italian capital a nui
bcr of young men , winners of tl
annual competitions for the pri
of Rome , to spend four years
the most idyllic manner , as gues
its of the French republic , at tl
ill Villa Medici , a beautiful pala
on owned by the government and si
bo cially arranged for their recc
jp- tion. These men have not w
their spurs without hard woi
cet
without great preliminary tra
ich
.T.l ing and many struggles.

State Fair News.
So far as making a state fair is
concerned , the Nebraska State
Fair to be held nt Lincoln Sep
tember 4th to 8th is already mnde
that is , the applications for and
assignment of space iifcsnres that
there will be no vacant places in
liny department. Every foot of the
implement section is assigned and
still they come. Swine exhibitors
are so determined to be there that
many are building pens at their
own exyense , the swine barns be
ing more than full. Thebpfit herds ,
of cattle iu the west will be on
hnud to compete for the ribbon.
Special importations of draft
horses are being made to show at
the Nebraska State Fair.
In Agricultural Hall the follow
ing counties have been assigned
space for county collective exhib
its : Adams , Brown , Douglas , Fur-
nns , Dawes , Frontier , Franklin ,
Hitehcoek , Howard , Ke a r n e y
Nemaha , Pawnee' Richardson , Sa

ton , Webster nnd York.
Indications point to more en
tries in speed than ever before at
a state fair and purses offered will
bring the fastesr. horses in the
western circuit. The seating capa
city of the grand stand has been
increased from 8,500 to ,000. As
special attractions a horse with
out a driver and with a record of
2U-i : and the trotting steer , San
Antonia Pete , with a half mile reef -
of 2i50 : , will give daily exhibition
races.
There will be plenty of conces
sion shows and not one of ' doubt
ful reputation" oti the grounds.
State Fair rates are one fare for
the round trip and more and bet
ter train service than ever before
is promised.
With good weather the attend

Both for pleasure and profit a
