Second Day Session of the Lutheran Gen

ELECTION OF NEW OFFICERS.
Eloquent Sermon Ily I/ . Rhodes
Itoport on Foreign Mission
imat Night's IntnrcstlnK
Services.
The Lutheran Synod.
The session opened : it 9 o'clock yester
day mormnir with the singing of a hymn
and a prayer by Hcv. M. Valentino , D.
D. , senior professor in the theological
seminary nt Gettysburg , I'a.
After the roll call and the reading of
the minutes , the synod proceeded to the
election of oflicurs. Prof. E. S. Hrcidon-
baugh , Mr. G. NV. Lclsenring and Mr. J.
A. Spiolmuii were appointed as tellers
and the ballot was tnkun according to
the custom of this synod , without nom
inations. Uuforu the committee was
ready to report , the hour for the delivery
of the president's sermon arrived and thu
business was suspended for this purpose.
The liturgical service was conducted
by Kev. 11. L. Itaughcs , I ) . D. , of Gettys
burg , I'n , , a former pastor of the Lu
theran church in this city. In this he
'
was assisted by Huv. T. C.'Uollhcimcr , D.
1) . . of Heading , Pa.
Dr. Kliodus thi'n jrcachcd an eloquent
sermon of which the following is an1
outline :
Tilt. HIIODr.S' Sl'.ltMON.
The doctor preached upon the subject of
the Holy Spirit the souico ot the church's
power , taking tlie following text : Xachailah
iv 0 , "Not by niUht nor by power , but by
my spirit , salth the Lord of hosts. "
Onn of tht ) most surest I vo of the prophe
cies , as they pertain to the kingdom n ( our
Lord , is tint of Xaclmrlnh.- consists oi'a
serins ot visions , adapted to the anxious
mind of tni' prophet , and to the disconsolate
temper of HID people. The truth Is now
brought to their notice with n now emphasis ,
and after their symbolic method , which was
especially agreeable to the Jewish mind.
In the present chapter wo have the vision ot
the candlestick. Associated with the wor
ship ot Lioth the tabcinaclo and the temple
we can easily see how It would at once stir
in the prophet anil in the people hallowed
iimmurles , and Impart to both now energy
and hope.
Without attempting to clve any Interpreta
tion of this Vision In detail , wo notice that
It was meant at ouco to lobnko and onrour-
agu ; to attire them that as .Joshua had been
luinstated as the rullidoushcadof the nation ,
to /erilbbabul their divinely rvcognUeu
civil leader , and tliat notwithstanding his
hesitancy and weakness , the temple should
bu built by his hands. The power was'to beef
of Cioil , lint of man , therefore the woik wns
not to fnll because Zcrubbabol did not prove
to hi1 a very worthy successor of David.
The prophet Is reminded that the sureever
adequate , ami supreme source of the church's
power Is not in the human Instrument , but
in the llolv Spirit , that divine personal
personal piespiu-q who works In men , over
coming all hindrance , and so glorltvlng
human weakness that it becomes tlio sublime
mastery of power.
The lesson lor us , In tills Instinctive vision
Is not difficult to hud. There is ; a singular
Illness In my text , not onlv on account of
the event to which wo have come , but , its
well , In view of the time In which wo are
living , and of much thatsecuis dominant In
the church. The whole church , not except
ing the ministry , has become more or less in
fected with the dominant material spirit of
the timo. 'iliere Is need that > ho ttiouulitand
faith of the chinch bo lifted tin Irom the ma
terial to the supieme source of power.
Lot us notice lirst these forces which op
pose from without. The present time Is
charactered by hostility as well as Indiffer
ence. Thu attack is as often subtle ana
noiseless as It Is loud and open. It comes
troni lilyh places M well as from low , and
carries with It tho'dignity of culture and so
cial rank.
In such a dense atmosphere of unbelief , so
tolerant , so agreeable to the llcsh , the tend
ency to Infection Is .strongand wo have need
to take heed , for often when ltdoos not affect
intellectual assent. It quenches the Inward
lito.
lito.Should
Should not the church ask why Is this pos
sible ? Hold up tbo great promises of God ,
and Interpret tills opposition correctly and
what does it moan but a church strong
enough in visible might and power , but
sadly weak'In the supreme source ot strength.
Her resources of strength nro Infinite , but
she does not rlso up to ( 'lrd herself with
them. It would scorn that wo have been
taken In the snaio and deceived by the glare
of that visible greatness and might which
mark the age.
In addition to the opposition of which I
have spoken , there conies to us fiom the
siuio quarter , at once a responsibility and an
opportunity , which as yet the church has
hardly commenced to master. It Is the ques
tion 01 the multitudes. To say that we nave
no responsiblllty'boyond the children of our
fathers and our faith. Is narrow If not
wicked. The attitude of the multitudes is
not so much one of hostility as of indiffer
ence.
Our orders and forms to which so much
time and ellort have been given , anpeal to
the outward sense of men , It they over get
In sight ot them : but our faith ana self-de
nial , our practical , sympathy and holiness ,
appeal to the hearts of men , whether they
ever come in sight of our forms or not. It Is
not something external , but Christ In us that
will arrest the notice and break the heart of
the millions unto contrition before the cross.
It can novftr be done by the might and power
of mere machinery. For the good word
method , I would supply another , imean the
word consecration. Whether wo bo ministers -
tors or members of the church this excel
lence Is at once'the evidence ot the Spirits'
presence , and the Illustration of Ills power.
But , alas ! It Is not so much the opposition
Irom without as the hindrances within that
retard the progress ot our Xlou. We need
ourselves to awake and arise , to wait on the
Holy Sphit , to strike the til in from our eyes ,
toascond the high hills whom the air is clear
and bravintr. and'to'ononour souls to the do-
scondiuz Ilklit. Wo.need it that wo
may learn'jto" look upon men more
after the " Spirit , and less
alter thu llcsh. It I could 1 would send
every minister In. the general synod to his
closet to plead for the Holy Spirit , that the
wasted lamps oil bur watch-towers might bo
suddenly replenished aud that Xlon might
arise and shine.
It Is with dlfridenco and grief I como to
speak of the second and greatest hindrance
within our church. I refer to our divisions.
The palntul fact wrt must lace , and as It Is
without the least warrant In holy scripture ,
und Is productive of untold ovll wo are
solemnly bound to labor and pray for its re
moval. If , as the apostle says , we are made
a spectacle to the angels , what a spactaclo wo
must bo in our unseemly separation and an
tagonism. Alas I that Imnds that should
bo clasped In Christian love , and in united
endeavor for the honor of God , .should rather
bo employed in weaving a crown of thorns
nbout the brow of Christ. Blessed bo God ,
good men everywhere are crowing weary of
the separation , and selfish Isolation ot those
who claim to represent the body of Christ.
There are'growing signs of unity amongst
us. It must be so it the blessed .spirit bo with
us. for lie Is a spirit of unity. We should hall
with joy every sign of the church's greater
oneness , the more when It breaks upon tlio
confusion and distraction of our beloved
Lutheran Xlon.
Finally if the supreme remedy and source
ot strength are In the Holy Spirit , and not
In any might and power of ours , wo may
well llnicor a moment to speak ot the method
of securing Its presence. Until wo know
how to pray , until it Is a dear delight to us.
wo shall not know the spirit , nor bo endowed
with his power. If the church was mightier
In prayer , If her uplifted voice was for a
double portion of the spirit , what a delUht-
ful change would bo manifest. God would
come suddenly to His temple , and /Ion
would arlso and slilno. The church on her
knees , not In the battlo-liola of controversy ;
the church on her knees , not stooulng with
Infamous coquetry to mammon ; the church
on her knees , not bowing with sectarian pre
judice on Sundays , nor on week days to so
cial iespectabllltybut : on her knees pleading
for the presence and power of the Holy
Ghost Is at once the method and phophecy of
her triumph.
At the conclusion of the sermon the
synod adjourned until 3 o'clock in the
afternoon.

As this was foreign mission day the an

evening. The devotional services were
conducted by Hev. W. M. Baum , D. D. ,
of Philadelphia , in this he was assisted
by llov. II. L. Buughor , D. D. , of Gettys
burg , Pa. , who reail the scripture , and
a former missionary to India , llov. J. 11.
Hurpstor , of Canton-O. , who oll'ered
prayer. The speaker of the evening was
llov. Luther Kulilman , of Baltimore ,
Md , , who delivered an interesting and
eloquent address.
Ho announced his subject as the broad
question of Christian missions wliich
could bo best stated as Christ for the
pagan and the infidel and the \yorld anil
the world for Glirt jt. | After giving com
parative statistics showing the magnitude
of the conllics of forces in the world said :
How shall we adjust ourselves to this
conflict ? 9
The Christian church was never con
fronted by so inanyj problems as at pres
ent. Wo have inne.rited the unsolved
problems of the past , ' There arc signs of
revolution everywhere. The world js
moving from beneath upward. This is
not the cry of tha imasscs after God.
They have become weary of bearing burdens -
dons that grow out of social and political
institutions that can ho longer be borne.
The church is in Jact responsible for
this condition of ulYuirs. In the midst of
thcso things the church must live and
toil. „ f
A largorqucstion'than all the questions
of the day In society , is that of the
world's evangelization.In the prcsunta'
tion of this cause tlio 'minister must bo
cvermindful of this relation , and bring
it before those to whom wo speak. Chris
tianity has brought civilization , and it
should recognize its obligation to Christi
anity , center to circumference. Their
vices can be found m all lands.
We , as ministers , must realize the
depth of the impurity and its hopeless
ness separate from protcstant Christian
ity. Some people talk about natural
goodness and pagan virtue. They apply
the teaching of evolution. They tell us
wo should introduce elements of civili
zation and thus elevate the degraded.
This is a gosoel of dirt no example in
history substantiates this theory. Kvcr.yv
where a movement downward and back
ward is manifest. The Bibjo places the
origin of man in Eden , not in barbarism.
Education and culture alone cannot cast
out the evil in man.
A rich man recently pave $25,000 to
evangelistic work. Ho know that this
'
was a'good way to insure the stability of
his possessions. Tlio appeal must go
forth in this direction nnd demand of civ
ilization the support of Christian mis
sions.
To point out the depth of the degrada
tion of those to whom wo send mission
aries is unnecessary. The apostle Paul
has done this in his description of the
natural man.
Heathenism unwashed in the blood of
Jesus is corrupt , for the religions of
heathenisms afi'ord no help to these pco-
Slo , but have helped to degrade them ,
co the rcsultsofMohammcdanism. Half
of the people of Asia adhere to that faith
nnd are still in a melancholy condition.
The results of the Hainan Catholic mis
sions do not atl'ord us a reason to suppose
that the Protestant church can leave this
work to them. The sooner wo realize
this the bettor for the world.
Missions do not relate ulono to spiritual
interests ; they should be sa presented as
to challenge the support of secular lifo.
To trace the relation of Christianity to
business progress will bo difficult , but it
is necessary. Christ said. "Go nnd make
disciples of all nations. " The church
savs wo are doing this. See what lias
boon dono. See our workers , thu mis
sionaries that nro lifting up the torch
that lights the world's gloom , but the
church docs not yet understand the
breadth of this commission. Wo apply
this to the Christian ministry and a few
Godly women. Thfliolo church is in
cluded in the responsibility. The church
should devise some way of pre
paring men for tci c work in less
time than is now used m the preparation
of students for the ministry in this coun
try. Our watchword must bo progress
larger achievement and outlay m the
work of foreign missioiw.
The speaker continual nt still greater
icntrth in forcible presdjtation of his sub
ject , holding tbo attention of the largo
audience to the conclusion of his address.
After the cpllcction of offerings for the
foreign missions , the benediction was
pronounced by the prudent of the synod.

llov. S. A. Ort , I ) . Ujhe ' newly elected
president of the gcinjral synod of the
Lutheran churchwas born in Lowistown ,
Pa. , in 1813. At the 'ago of fifteen ho en
tered the freshman class at Wittenberg
collegeaud graduated with highest honor
in 18(53. ( After graduation ho was tutor
ono year in the college and then nccopted
a call from the First church at Findlay ,
Ohio. In 1803 ho wus chosen professor
of mathematics in Wittenberg college.
Six years later at the urgent solicitation
of the board of homo missions , Dr. Ort
went to Louisville , KyM to take charge of
a feeble mission in that city. Here lie
labored with eminent success until 1879 ,
when ho accepted a call to St. James
Lutheran church , Now York. Ono year
later ho wus elected to the chair of sacred
philology in the theological seminary of
Wittenberg college , and in 1882 was
chosen the successor of Dr. Holwig as
president of thu institution , Ho received
the title of Doctor of Divinity at the ago
of tuirty-tureo , Aa a Umcuer in the col-
lego Dr. On. lias few equals among the
great educators in this country. Even
when a young man ami during his first
service at the college ho was regarded by
the venerable Dr. Sprcoher as one of the
mosfclTieiont and capable teachers in the
Lutheran church. In the pastorate ho
soon rose to prominence , established a
largo congregation In the city "f
Louisville , and became widely
known as a profound scholar
and eloquent preacher of divine
truth. Devoted to his church , loving
her polity , and loyal to her distinctive
doctrines , jot charitable and fraternal
with other denominations , ho has always
held a high piano In the esteem of those
with whom lie Is associated in Christian
work. Dr. Ort has had great success as
president of Wittenberg college , has had
the Gratification of seeing a magnificent
building erected free from debt and also
of raising the curriculum of instruction
on an equality with the best colleges in
this country. As the presiding ollicer of
the general synod ho will relloct credit
upon that body , and by his executive
ability will do much to facilitate thu busi
ness of thu convention.

It was ono of thu most daring and
dangerous feats ever seen in railroad
circles hereabouts. Officer Duff Green
saw the man near the train and when he
made a rush for the Pullman it was
thought ho intended to commit suicide
and the officer ran to stop him. The
train was going at too lively a speed ,
however , nnd the man swung himself too
quickly on the truck for capture.

last evening on a warrant sworn out by

made by Constable Edgerton at the in

The ollicors were very rctieciil concern

entirely suppress publication of the
arrest. Enough was gained from the
prisoners , however , to indicate that the
prisoners have been aotmtr as saloon de
tectives in the Blull's. They have filed
information against a number of saloon
keepers of that city for selling liquor.
Yesterday they are charged with having
como to Omaha and here having met
some of these saloonkeepers , from whom
they received money in considerable
amount , in consideration of which they
agreed to not appear against the liquor
men.
Neither of the prisoners would talk
after they had reached the jail , and only
claimed that they "guessed they Wouldn't

The groom is a gentleman of slender
build , sixty-soven years of ago , with
small chin beard and mustache as white
as winter's snow , wiulo Ids whitening
head was tlngnd with a vanishing shade
of brown. He is u citizen of Omaha ,

Itonrd Convention.
The non-partisan meeting at the rooms
of the board of education last evening
was packed by a crowd of partisan
roustabouts , whom " "
among were "ilodgo"
Coolny , Mike Meauoy , Dan O'Koefo ' ,
Blackburn , Wlgnlnsuiid Moriurlty. They
wont there for the purpose , and suc
ceeded in accomplishing It , of breaking
up the meeting ami preventing action
by it. By actual count ninety-six per
sons were prudent. W. V. Mor.su was
chosen chairman and Mr. Foivsyth sccro-
tarv.
William Wallace obtained the floor
before any ouu ol.se had an opportunity
and said that tlio convention ought to
have been called after the republican ! *
and democrats bad nominated their
candidates and ought to select nine out
of their nominees.
By apparently previous arrangement
Mr. Mnrmritv was immediately on Ills
feet when iVlr. Wallace concluded and
ondor.M'd the sentiment ol the last
speaker , llu asserted that it would
bo folly to put a ticket in
the field before the parly conventions
had been hold , llu inquired by what au
thority this meeting had been called , any
way.
Mr. Powell said that ho was one of
these who called the meeting and ho con
tended that the meeting was called by
proper authority. He handed the call to
SeorotTy Forsyth , who read it.
Henry Gibson then succeeded in
raining the Hoar and spoku at
length. Ho asked the pertinent
question why had the charter been so
passed that it separates the school elec
tion from the political election and places
it one month later ? The manliest purpose -
pose was lo .separate it from polities. It
was al.so plain that it bad boon the inten
tion of ( he legislature to make it possible
for women to vote , and till. * could only bo
done by separating the school election
from the city election. If liu had his way
half the school board would be composed
of ladies.
This sentiment was applauded by iho
ten or twelve ladies who wore present.
A motion was then made to proceed to
the nomination of nine candidates for the
.school boaid. Immediately one of the
partisan interloper ; moved to adjourn.
Mr. Murtinovifch said that the motion to
adjourn came from tho. same crowd wliich
had defeated the purpose of the last
meeting and which was hero for the same
object. Some confusion thuiuupon ensued ,
but thu chair put the motion to nominate
candidates and thus stopped the talk.
The chair declared the motion , which
was voted upon by acclamation , to bo
lost. A division was called for anil re
sulted in a count of ! ? ) in favor of pro
ceeding to nominate and 51 against.
A motion to adjourn until to-morrow
night for the purpose of .selecting , from
the eighteen nominees put forward by
the two parties , niuo who should bo con
sidered as non-partisan candidates , was
carried.
