OF THE HIDDEN TREASURE Practical Application of the T.nric of the Man Who I'loM-cil That r rtlrulnr ' SlKiilll- I'lcld lln ItcllKlcins cnnco Illustrated. Last night nt Immnnuol Baptist chutch Uov. Frank W. Foster preached the first of n series of business sermons , drawing prac tical business lessons from the parables of Christ. His subject was "Tho Hidden Treasure ; or , Business Sagacity. " Uov. Mr. Foster took for his text Matthew xlil , 4 < : "Tbo kingdom of bcavon is llKo unto treasure - uro hid in a field , the which when n man hath found ho hldotli , and for Joy thereof he gooth and srllcth all that ho huth and buyoth tbat Hold. " During bis dlscourso the preacher snld : "Christ had great quickness and soundness of Judgment , Ills sagacity In the choice of Illustrations which would command the at tention of his hoarrrs and carry them with htm to the conclusion ot hlsdlscoursoM. Is ad mitted bv all. He had closely studied the buslncss'habits of his times , nnd from tbo practices of men in the marts of trndo ho found Illustrations for the greater doctrines of his teachings. "In the story which gives us our text , wo nro shown on industrious man contentedly laborine for his master , but ho is attentive and thoughtful , as well as industrious. Plowing along , by mere chancohocanin upon a great treasure , and ho is naturally greatly surprised , but ho does not lese his bend. Ho might huvo filled his pockets , or the lunch bag bo probably had with him , and gene on with his work , and gone back there from lima to tltno and ruplenUuod hU storo. But bo showed his wisdom and Ihoughtlulnosn in doing what wo all would rccoKnizo , after it was done , as the wisest thing that ho could do. "tin keeps his secret. In this wo witness his wisdom , for there are enterprises which it will not to to allow others to know about or wo will bo sure to fall , Ho had a good thing and no doubt ho felt many times tempted to reveal his secret , but his only surety was In being close-mouthed. Ho began to turn every possession into money ; ho had found a Ilrst class chauco to invest all his hard earned savings.ot many years and ho did not hesitate to pert with every thing that ho nililit got the money to purchase - chase that lleld. People talked about it ; no doubt they thought ho wus mad ami that he had bccomo a fool. * Some I'rartlcul Iliislnoss Lessons. "This man found his peed fortune by nt- tendlug to his business , by sticking to the work for which ho wns trained ana fitted. There is not the slightest oncouragoaiout in this story for men to engage In games ol chance , nor invest In lotteries. This indus trious man round wealth in doing what ho could do well. "Many of the failures in business nro duo to attempts to do some business for which onn is not llttcd , and many other failures arc the result of gambling and ventures in chance schemes. Most successful men find their success in attending strictly to their business and in legitimate profit. There U unthought-of success for miuiy business men if they would only devote the same at tention to the business they are engaged in that they do to loolclng about continually for some softsnup in some other line of busi ness. "Many a. man goes through Hfo with his eyes shut. Ho would plough up a wholobnnk of gold and never notice It. It Is astonish ing how llttlo wo see after wo have comi ? tr bo HO years old. Most intelligent children see thrco to ton times as muclx as tbcii paronts. If you would coma to success and good fortune you must go about with youi c.vos open. The man in this purablo valued his opportunity. Ho was willing to sacrifice for the treasure. Staying qualities and ap prcclation of opportunities , and willingness to sncrilice for the future are essential elements ments in nearly every successful business man's ' Hfo. Still OrcntiT T.c 8on. "Men , with all their sacacitv , Avant the treasures of the earth , because of the advan tages , bocauae of the happiness they hope tt command by their possession. Few are the men who live to get cold for the more misorlj delight of seeing it glitter in the canulo light of their don. They want , gold for what it will purchase , or tor what they supposed it will purchase , of the happiness of this world , "This parable is Intended to teach us , in the most positive terms , that there Is o treasure , a Joy , n happiness that men may come upon , tbat will bo worth more than ull the possessions they mav have before finding this treasure , .lob said , in the way haul ! ngea of the human family , concerning the crcatcst treasure : 'It cannot bo gotten foi gold , neither shall silver bo welched lor tin price of it , the L-old nnd crystal cannot equal It , and the exchange of it shall not bo foi pure gold ; no mention shall bo made of coral or of pearls , for the price of it is above rubies. ' "Men may sneer nnd laugh , nnd say that every man has his price nt which he can b ( bought ; but I tell you this is not so. Then nro tboso who have been tempted Jjv untolc " wealth , nnd have spurned the offer "ot gelt nud said : "I'hv money perish with theo. ' "The treasures of the kingdom of heaver nro hidden treasures. The world does no BCO thgm , and therefore oftentimes the work does not bullevo In them. But wo sci them , nnd wo possuia them , anc they mo the chief jovs of our life. Thi Lord is letting us live in a very quiet OIK peaceful state nowadays ; but If the ( Irene persecution wore started again there wouh bo found tuanv martyrs who would sell the ! Ufa rather than lese this greatest of al treasures , the kingdom of heaven. " < iosrii : , UNION'S \VOKK , Wlmttlio KurncHt l.ilim-crn Are doing fui thu Churvli In Nuhrualiu. OMtiiA.Neb. . March 12.

A good sized audience gathered at thi First Congregational church last evening ti hoar Colonel A. Hoagland , president of thi Boys and Girls National Homo and Employ mcnt association , lecture on tbo work of thi society. The speaker was Introduced by thi pastor , Hev. Dr. Duryea. President Hoagland is well Known all eve the country on account of tbo interest ho ha taken in the welfare of homeless childrei nna tbo newsboys and bootblacks who rui streets of the largo cities. In commencini the speaker said tbat bo had come to Omahi in the Interest of a special phase of charitabn work , the Boys and Girls National Horn nnd Employment association. "Prevention of crime , " said Colone Hoagland , "is better than trying to euro it 'lhat is our motto. Prevention is picking u | poor , deserted homeless boys"nnd girls am finding them homos out in the country amnni the farmers. To try and euro crime is t lock the boys and men up in Jails and rofon schools. In the last nine years I hnvo vis itedilol cities in the interest of the work o our association. "I will Ilrst ti'll you where to find crime In the reform schools there are over Itl.oa children , in tbo penitentiaries tW.OO prisoners , nnd in the Jails throu ; t out the land 125UOO persons ar confined. Ninety-eight out of every 10 children now detained in reform schools ar from the cities , nnd it is among the slums 1 the big cities where most of our work in res cuing boys is going on. Wo take tbo lull helpless and homeless newsboys and bool blacks and find homo ; for thorn among tli farmers , where , after a shot t stay , the boy coma to like their now life nnd surroundmq und grow up into respectable , industrial ) young men. "In this great country of ours wci hav Judges , Juries , police nnd all the muchlnor necessary for sending men nnd boys to th penitentiary. But arrests don't tend to n .form or lessen crime , and , in my opinion , th only way to help nud save the youngstct who run the streets ull day and sleep In dr goods boxes nt night Is to got them a goo homo some place away fromovll surroum Ings , and where they will have regular meal and a bed to sleep In. " Colonel Hoagland then told about some < his night trips through tha alloys In the IOUR parts of towns and how ho had given the ou casts food nnd shelter and Dually obtaino employment and homes for them. Thoprcs dent than explained the workings of sever : refuge IniUluUons , maintained by clinril and the association , and urged upon tho- present the necessity for some such homo i refuge in this citv. At the conclusion of tt address a collection was taken up and quit sum of money raised to assist In thn associi lion's work.
