Charles W. Ravldgo preached at the People's church last evening on the subject of "Is Modern Christianity a Fraudl" llo took the affirmative and poured hot shot 7 Into a few preachers in particular and i modern Christianity In general. Thu followIng - Ing is what Uov. Savldge said : What Is modern Christianity ? It is not that cllvlnu system of religion foretold by the prophets and established by Jesus of Nazareth. Modern Christianity 1.4 no more Ilka the faith that Jesus taught than the paste diamond Is like the real Btono , but thu sham Is not really deceiving many , for the soul detects the fnlso and cries out for the Christ of the Now Testament , who was Irani In a manger , who went about doing good , and died on the cross for sinful men. Modern Christianity Is a faith which has been manufactured to suit the uncnangod hearts of a vast multitude in tlio present day. The modern church Is thu church of prophecy , II Tlmotbv ill , 1 to 5. " 1 am prepared to give my reasons for my position. God says , 'Bo ready always to give to every man that askoth you a reason of the hope that Is In.you with meekness ami fear,1 Thu Christ of holy scripture i s not the Christ commonly worshiped today. "Matthew I , il. ! says , 'Thou shall call nls name Jesus.for Ho shall save Ills people from their sins.1 "Jesus of Kazarcth saves from sin. Ho Is f the soul's deliverer. Ho changes character. "Ho also deals with the bodiesofiinon. Ho I feeds the hungry multitude , ho heals the bodies of the aflllctcd and restores sight to the blind. Jesus of Nazareth has not and can not change for Ho Is God. "He also gives sure hope of Heaven. Hear the Apostle Paul ring out the words : 'We know that If our earthly house of this taborni naelo were dissolved wo have a building of God , a house not made with hands , eternal In tlio heavens.1 Thousands have said with bin. : 'To llvo is Christ , to dlo is gain. ' Now contrast the modern popular Christ with Jesus of Nazareth. ICollulmis , IiiliiiA Carnnr. "Tho modern Christ is not a person , but rather a myth or an Idea. Ho is a sprl of re ligious Julius Caesar , who did wonderful things ages ago , but who does not help man in his agony and bondage now. This popular Christ does not change character. I know this by what 1 have scon and known of my self , in my ministry 1 have known , Just as every minister knows , that some were true the true metal has the ring that oven devils know but I also know that the great majority were still the slaves of sinful appe tites and passions. Thev were mak ing a profession of religion without having rcajly gone to tlio Deliverer. "Men and women can bo members 01 the modern church and profess to bo followers of this maku-beliovo Christ and bo just as tricky and impure as anybody. The great majority llvo just as their neighbors do , only they profess to believe iu Christ and their neighbors do not. Jesus of Nazareth makes n man true to the heart's core. Ho docs not attempt to pass us for pure , but ho enables us to bo pure. This tuake-heliovo Christianity docs not change character. Let mo tull you what thestreet , car men say and I be'icvc ' thorn. They say they would rather haul I theater people than church people , because , some of the people who ride to church on their cars on Sabbath are more full of tricks. They have to bo punched for their nickles though they are carrying their bibles , and if the car does not slop exactly at the right spot , the forced Sunday toiler is reported iu many cases. "You may boa follower of this sham Christ nnd not oven bo truthful. Later- years U Is coming on mo with awful foreo that u vow taken at the altar of God Is binding on the Bold. Well , do you know that when 1 made up my mind three years ace , that I would keep tiio Methodist Episcop.il Disci- pine , that church in this part of the country , through her ministers and members , made fun of mo. I shall not forgot Bishop Newman's words. 1 will now road you these rules and ask you who keeps them or attempts to do bo , unless it bo some hie fool like myself. "Hut I tell you God will hold men to the vows tlioy make Him. Ho .says it is better not to vow than ID vow and not p.iy. Ho desires - sires truth in the Inward parts. "This sham Christ gives"no peace or Joy nnd makes sport of thu idea that Jesus of Nazareth can do anything for the body. They say ho quit the work of healing long tigo. Well , I say , if Ho has , He is a sham , for Ho if > Ciod and changes not. Jesus says , John xlv , IS , 'Verily , verily , I say unto you , ho that bolleveth on Me , the works that I do shall ho do also ; and greater works than these shall lie do because 1 go unto My Fattier.1 Skeptics and infidels say , 'Wo do not see these transformations of character , nor the sick healed. Wo want to see these things. ' 1 do not blame them for demanding thu demonstration of these things. Man Is BO made up that he cannot beliovu without evidence. These great stories of what Jesus did long ago will not bo credited much longer if His people are not examples of thu divine work. And this false Christ gives no substantial hope of hu.ivun. A multilulo will fail in tlio final examination before the tbrono. noctrliim of Mmlurn Christianity. "Again wo notice the great difference be tween the doctrines taught by modern Chris tianity and those of Jesus Christ. There were two doctrines taught by Jesus which nro very little umphasl/.ed by the church of today. He taught that in order to enter heaven wo must have pure hearts and live holy lives. Is this all-i.nportant truth much insisted upon today ? I had been In the min istry seven years boforu I could dcllno holi ness , My teachers In thu gospel allowed mete to he ignorant of tlie great , essential truth , and they oven cautioned mo against seeking n clean heart. Hut when my soul-hunger drove mo to God , He showed mo the mean ing of those words , 'Hlesseil are the pure iu heart , for they .shall see God. ' Oh ! I came to ECO the deep meaning of the Straight gale and narrow way ' "Popular Christianity docs not preach holiness , but many ministers openly oppose It and say the experience cannot ho lived on earth. Hut tlio bible says , 'Without holi ness no man .shall sco God. ' "Tho othi > r doctrlno Ho spoke in tones of love and yet awful warning was that sin would suicly bring its fearful punishment. He did nut pose as an artUt yet Ho painted ) pictures of hell that no guilty soul can look tit without a shudder. Thu modern church : has ceased to preach this awful truth till hell Is breaking out all about us. Notice too | , thu difference between thu blblo preachers and those of today. rrouchliic us a Simp. "They loft all to follow Christ. But the ministers now llnd all by following the Lord. ' Preaching U a ( laying business in other words it is a snap. Ministers now are most successful business men.

That gambler will not bo saved unless he washes his hands from sin and makes a di rect line for heaven. But I toll you some of the modern preachers will have to hustle , ioo. I.ookliitf fur ( lulileu Sllppcra , "I make the charge and I can prove itthat lomo of the ministry nf today Is greedy for [ ilacu and for gold. They use thu tricks of llio politician to secure the best places. 1 know whereof 1 speak and. if necessary , I ' can give nauius and facts. The 'divine call1 h i coma to be the loudest where the salary Is the largest. The modern church , In order to pay the high salary of the ministry , hns , In many Instances , made mcrchnndlso of the house of God. selling the scats to the high est bidder. This Is business-It is worldly shrewdness but the name of Christ has no place hero. "In the mad scramble for money nnd place , the rat'gcd poor have been turned from the places of worship. But perhaps their loss is small , for no man ever yet preached Christ who did not preach Him for Christ's sake. Edward Irving , the writer and actor said , 'The missionary after tbo apostolic school Is a man wilhoutn purse , without scrip without a cliango of raiment without n st.ifT. without the eSro of mak ing friends or keeping friends without the hope or desire of woHtlly good or fear of worldly loss with the care of life without the fear of death. Ho has no rank , country or condition a mini of ono thought the gospel of Christ , n man of ono purpose the clor.v of God. A fool nnd content to ho reckoned a fool for Christ ; a madman and content to ho rcckotUMt so for Christ. 'This ' is n true picture of the real minister nf Jesus. The modern muchine-mado thing looks very different. God's ministers suf- fercd"per.secution. The feet ot Jeremiah sunk In the mire ; Daniel was thrown to the wild boasts. John the Baptist was beheaded and most of tboapostlessulTured martyrdom. Head the record : II Corinthians vl. 5 ; II Corinthians xi , ! ) , ' . ' ! ; Jesus said : 'Thoy who will live godly In this present world shall suffer persecutions. ' Agony Over IllRli I'll p. "The Lord's ministers had nn agony for souls , Exodus > x > il , 33 ; Homans ix , ! I ; II Corinthians v , 11 ; Acts xx , ill. Modernchrlu- lanlty may got In an agony over progressive cuchro or high llvo or a lawn social , but I have never scon ono of her churches spend n night In agonizing , provaillng prayer over the souls dropping all about us. "Within tlio past four years , since 1 have come to see these things , ! have been cau tioned by ministerial friends in this city to take it cool not to agonlzo over lost souls. They sa : 'Better go away and take a good church nnd got a line salary. " And more than once , under their advice , I have almost stumbled and tottered to my fall. But lean- not go back If I do it will bo at the peril of my soul. There is something awfully wrong in the modern church and ministry. "If the birth pains do not conio on tfco mother the child cannot bo born. Dignity ol tlio Clergy. "Our ministers are stiff and dignified , but I believe Jesus could have been approached anywhere. Brethren , let us bo dlgnllied Nwhen wo are dead , not when broken hearts need bind Ing up. "Our ministry ptcaches In churches ; the followers of the Naarcae went everywhere preaching the word. "The apostles had tbo Holy Ghost , having received him in the upper chamber after a ten days prayer meeting. Now , too often , the word is without life and power and the so-called man of God has not so much as heard whether there bo any Holy Ghost. "God Almighty send the tongue of ilro on the ministry burning up selfishness and churchly pride and making soldiers instead of cowards of Thy workmqn I For God says : 'Cursed Is ho that hoUteth back his sword from blood/ "In conclusion I say modern ichristianlty is a fraud. If wo wish to bo useful in time and saved in eternity , wo must bo blblo Christians. Wo must go by the bible through the doorof the new bir'h and a holy walk with God. It is u costly tiling to follow Jesus ; it will take all you havo. Don't lie ; don't bo n hypocrite. None but thu pure In heart shall see God. " AFFAIRS AT SOUI'H OMAHA.

It was learned that the principal topic dis cussed was tlio discharge of Sullivan and MoManaglo from the stock yards switch crew. These men claim that they wore let out simply because they were live minutes Into in showing up for iluty. The other side of the story is that the men tnouKht Tun- gate was to take ehargn of the yards that and tneso men had made up their minds not to work with him. When they discovered that Tungato was not in charge they showed up ready for husincsa and were told that their services were no longer do- sired. Air. A. U Lane of Grant county , Oregon , arrived at the stock y.mls on Saturday evening - ing with two car loads ot horses.

" Mrs. Xctnan had boon advertised to fponk about the general . ondltlon of women in her native land , but this was duo to a misunder standing , nnd besides , the lecture adver tised Is considered by its charming deliverer too ' long a ono for a hot night , nnd shu there fore iravo an Informal talk ou the subject llrst stated. She spoke at length concerning the Intro- dtietlonof Christianity Into IJohomla long before the other countries of Europe bad any accepted belief , maintaining the claim that Bohemia was the original Protestant- l/.od . country on the continent , and holding , further , that the Christianity which now embraces nil of Europe was disseminated from Bohemia. Mrs Xcinnn took the ground that Lutheran Protestantism was directly lathered by the martyred John HUSH ; that Martin Luther was merely a dlsclplo of Huss , and baa received the credit for promulgating the doctrines of willed Huss was really the author. . In brief , she bellows In Huss as the original npostnlo from the Hoiimn Catholic faith In Europe. After tracing the history of the progress of protestantism hi her country up to the present time , Mrs , Xcinnn repudiated the opinion which she claims obtains In America , that Bohemia Is In need of missionaries , set ting forth that Bohemia Is as thoroughly Im bued with protestantism as any other coun try on the face of the earth , and that all that stands In the way of Its complete con version to protestantism is the opposition of the IK > PO and the obstacles placed by the Austrian government in tbo way of mission aries. f.uv.tr.
