Thn Pulpit on Masonry.
The following sermon , ik'tivcrcd at St.
Paul's Kpiscopal church last evening * will be
Interesting to the readers of the HEE. The
rector , Hev. T. J. Mnckny , announced his
subject ns "Masonry , " which drew a large
audience despite the bitterly cold weather.
In reply to the question "What , Is Masonry ) "
ho said : "It IH the result of mi effort on the
part of mankind for some simple rule of life
and action , which while It should unite them
closely together , for mutual protection should
also guarantee the greatest possible liberty
of thought and movement. If wo look for a
possible cause of the origin of Masonry out
side of the commonly received traditions of
the order , we shall find a natural cause for
Its appearance.
Kirst. In the failure of the church of
Chrtot to carry out the Idea of brotherhood
and fraternity proclaimed by Jesus Christ ,
its founder. Second. In the necessity that
existed for not only freedom of action but
freedom of speech and liberty of thought
caused by the prosecutions of all the thinkers
anil reformerstlmtnppearcd upon the world's
stage. Were there no other reasons these
iilono would be sunicient to account for the
growth and spread of the order. Wo might
express the cause of the origin and growth of
Masonry In ono short sentence : thonecessity
of individual freedom.
The accusations brought against Masonry
are too ridiculous to attempt to answer. The
charge of atheism is fully contradicted In
every step which he must take who desires
to enter the Masonic portal. From the very
beginning , even before ho is admitted , ho
must believe in ( ! od , or else remain outside ,
and once admitted no ceremonies In any church
are more or better calculated to teach im
plicit trust in God , and not in man , than the
ritual of the masonic order.
Masonry inculcates self reliance , but
above all , reliance on Almighty God. It docs
not hide the light thut comes to us from every
source from which light/can coine. but freely
welcomes each and every manifestation of
the same. Chief and principal among all the
sources of , light and truth it enthrones as its
guide , the great light uf masonry , the holy
scriptures. Novel * for a moment , from The
time when as an "entered apprentice" lie
reverently approaches those sacred scrip
tures to tin ; time when he graduates as a
Christian soldier under the banner of the
cross , does he ever lose sight of that sacred
volume. Without it all would bo confusion
and Masonry at an end. Home ever conceals
this source of light. Masonry ever reveals
the same. The one loves darkness , the other
loves the light. The Mason stands at the
portals of the great lodge of the universe as
an humble learner. Ho approaches the great
secrets of God in the attitude Jesus himself
describes that of a child. His constant
prayer on bended knee is for more light , and
the true Mason is lie who never rests satisfied
with what lie has already received , presses
with unwearied feetupthe world's great steps
of instruction which terminate only in the
presence of God.
In its toleration of nil existing religions it
partakes of the spirit of Jesus Christ vide
1'opo's bulls and if the church if Christ
would take a lesson in that respect from Ma
sonry and cease putting between the soul of
man and his God useless "confessions of
faith" and bewildering "rules of life" and
morn bewildering "doctrines" it would not
have to lament to-day such a wide-spread de
fection of thinking men from its ranks.
Now , what relation docs Masonry hold to
the church of Christ ! That is the universal
body of all believers. That the secret orders
in the church of Itomt bear to that church
and its authorities. It is not the church nor
a church and it was not intended so to be. It
is an institution with.n an institution. A
kingdom within a kingdom. A kingdom of
loyal , earnest , truth-seeking men forming a
part of the great kingdom of God on earth ,
and aiming to keep before men
n living symbol of that trno unity which
shall one day distinguish the kingdom of God
ns a whole. "Tho unity of the spirit in the
bond of peace and in righteousness of life. "
As one lodge has a relation to nil other
lodges and to the grand lodge , so does
Masonry acknowledge the Jurisdiction of the
true kingdom of God and must help forward
every movement which tends to uplift and
redeem humanity , and spread far and wide
just and beneficent views of God and man's
relation to God. I have heard Masons say ,
speaking of their obligations ns Masons :
"This is religion enough for me. " Hut such
men hud not grasped the true idea of our
order. The expression arises from an im
perfect idea of what religion really is. He-
llgion is not reason alone , it is not enthusiasm
alone , or feeling , or belief , or good works
alone. True religion includes them all.
True religion is love llnding expression in
action ; its scat is the heart , the heart is its
citadel. It begins with love of God shown
in love to men , but it docs not and cannot
despise its source. In so far as Masonry in
cludes our dependence upon God and our
love for the brethren , it is a part of religion ,
but only a part. It aims to control more
the outward act than the inward
principle. It touches no particular creed , nor
has any Mason the right to measure for
another within the boundaries of the lodge ,
the right of a brother to worship according
to any creed for which ho may hold vener
ation and lovo. * * * The Mason
who derides the faiths of religion as held by
the vast majority of Christians is guilty of
that intolercnco which he condemns in others
and that man who declares that Masonry is
religion enough for him forgets one of the
great truths of Masonry , vlthat : reason
cannot grasp the secrets of the Infinite.
There is always something undiscovered in
Masonry which ought to teach its followers
the necessity for faith. There are times
when we can only revere , believe and trust ,
and oven in the ordinary affairs of life we
are governed more by what wo believe than
what we know.
* * * The founders of Masonry
hnd no ideas of cutting of the order from all
connection with the church of God , to make
It antagonistic to the church or to render the
exorcises of religion unnecessary by its ex
istence. Masonry teaches nothing that
Christians do not teach , but Christians tench
more than Masonry teaches , and yet there is
n vast amount of misunderstanding iipou
this point.
I have heard ministers assert that the dif
ference bettween Masonry and the church
lies m the fact that Masonry deals only with
this life , not with the life to come. This 1
am prepared to deny. It is this view of the
church as an Insurance society for the future
life that has caused so many men to reject
its teachings. The church in not nn Insur
ance society. It is a place for the building
up of character. The church docs not save a
man ; a man saves himself. The same thing
is true of Masonry. It docs not save u man. i '
It cannot make an honest man out of a born
knave in spite of its obligations any more
than a church can. * * * The difference
between the church and Masonry lies In the
fact that the former makes the highest mor
ality the end of its objects , while the latter
seeks the promotion of truth ; of light ; ol
larger and freer conceptions of God and
right and eternity. * * * The reverse
of the saying of Christ is the maxim of Mu
sonry , " 1 came not , " He says : To call the
righteous , but sinners to repentance , " while
Masonry says : "I came not to help the sig
ners , but those whoso characters are alreadj
good enough to be admitted into my selccl ;
ranks. "
' There needs to bo to-day n quickening o
the spirit of fellowship among us ; mom ten
durncss for each other's faults ; more for
giveness ; more of that feeling which U ex
pressed in the lodge by tne word brother
more of the practice of the virtues pro
claimed In the lodge room ; more of the dc
termination to not only meet ui > on the love
and part UIKIII the sn.uuro in open lodge , bu
In every walk of life to continue that sann
spirit in our relations with all men. So sluil ,
men see thut our professions ami practice
nre in perfect harmony. Hut to bo perfect li
spirit and not generous with our means I
like professing religion without practicing It
The absence of the true spirit of gcncrosit ;
Is the bane of our churches to-day. Me :
profess religion pay their ministers an
tliulr church rates more grudgingly thaa the ,
do their tnxvs. They profess to love God
with heart 'soul and mind , nnd their brother
ns themselves , but they would die of starva
tion In a month If their love of self was no
greater than their lox'o of God and their
brother. It Is the shame of our beloved
Masonry also. No cloie-fisled , penurious
ninn can ba n Mason. He may be n Mason by
vlrtue'of his vows , but never1 can n mnn be n
true Mason who is not ojjen-licartod nnd iron-
erous ; who does not clothe the naked , feed
the hungry nnd bind up the wounds of the
nflllctcd. To be liberal only with that which
is our own * , to be generous only when to give
deprives us of a luxury or comfort , this Is

Moving For
The meeting of the board of trade which
was to have been held this evening has been
jioMponed until Wednesday evening , on nc-
count of the "Old Hickory" ball. At an In'
formal meeting which was held Saturday
evening at the office of Odell IJros. , It was
decided to reorganize the board , and u com-
mlttceeomposed of Messrs. GleasonMcrrlam
nnd Weaver , were appointed to solicit for
membership. The new board Is to be com
posed of at least forty members , and the admission -
mission fee is fixed at { . "HI. There 1.4 some
talk of running the new board In connection
with the Council HlulTs club , but the idea
aroused a diversity of opinion. His generally
conceded that the old board failed to accom
plish what it ought to , while the club is mak
ing a decided success of itself. It may be
that the two would not work well In double
harness , but there is no question
but what the club could handle some of the
business much better than the board of
trade. The club has thus fnr been run solely
ns a social organization , nnd some of . the
members wish it continued as such. Others
desire' have business committees appointed
which shall answer the purpose df n board of
trade. The meeting on Wednesday evening
is to fully determine these points nnd map
out a line of nction for the future. Whatever
course they decide to pursue it Is hoped that
it will be much more effective than the old
method , nnd that this city may at last feel
the effects of having n lively , wlde-uwake
and energetic organization of business men.
A more favorable opportunity than the pres
ent has never presented Itself , and such nn
organization , if rightly conducted , would be
the means of realizing the bright visions of n
splendid future for Council Uluffs.

Frank Leonard applied for lodging at the
police station Saturday night and was accom
modated. After getting thawed out over the
city's hard coal , he began to manifest pugilis
tic propensities , and soon had a very fair imi
tation of Donnybrook Fair at full blast. The
majority of the prisoners threw up their
hands , but Jailor Gnlvin called for two more
cards and drew two trumps. With a full
hand of clubs ho entered the game. Both
parties played hard for awhile but the oflleer
soon raked in nil the boodle nnd placed his
opponent in a cell by himself. A charge of
vagrancy and fighting was then entered
against the prisoner , who will pour the story
of his trials and persecutions into the sympa
thetic car of Judge Ayleswocth.

Which the bills of mortality of any
large city may bo fitly designated , nnd
you will iind that renal and vesienl mal
adies , that is to say , those that affect
the kidneys or bladder , have a remark
able prominence , wo had almost said
preponderance. Brijjht'H disease and
diabetes in the chronic stage are rarely
cured , and gravel , catarrh of the blad
der and enuresis slay many. Yet at the
outset , when the trouble jnurely
amounts to inactivity of the organs in
volved , the danger may be nullified by
that pleasant renal tonic and diuretic ,
Ilostetter's Stomach Bitters , which im
parts the requisite amount of tone to
the organs , without over-exciting them ,
nnd the use of which is convenient , and
involves no elaborate preparation.
Dyspepsia , a usual concomitant of renal
complaints , and debility , which they
invariably produce , arc remedied by it.
So also are constipation , malarial , rheu
matic and nervous ailments.
