THE OMATIA DAILY BEE : MONDAY , JUNK 11 , 1801 , CONFMANTS AT THE ALTAR Beautiful and Imprctslvo Ceremony nt Temple Israel Yesterday Morning ! SERVICE OF MANY SPLENDID FEATURES rorccfiil ni cmir oif \ Itcv. Dr. Trnnklln on ' Tlio Modem llciclntlim" Contrast JJrtwt'cn I'lint nnd I'rcncnt Words to the Class , Yesterday morning the Interior of Temple Israel presented nn unusually festive appear- mice , tlio occasion being the confirmation of ten children , seven girls and three boys. The pulpit was a perfect garden of flowc/s. Extending from two large supports , grace fully wrapped with large , silk American flags , was a largo floral arch , subdivided Into ten smaller arches , under each of which Blood a conflrmant. The front and Bides of the altar wore literally lined with palms nnd blooming plants , whllo In front of the reader's desk was the Inscription In whlto roses , " 1891. " The music , too , was exquisite. Besides the now Temple choir which sang most beautifully , selections were rendered by 1'rdf. Hans Albert and his string quartet , and a solo by Handogger was deilghtly rendered by Miss Natlmtila Anspacher of the New York Conservatory of Music. The temple was crowded to Its capacity , extra clialru having been placed In all the aisles and In the gallery , and so great became the number of people In attendance , that It was found necessary to clone the doors , and fully 00 people were excluded. It was a notice able fact that fully one-fourth of those as sembled were Christians. The entire service was one grand , Impres sive ceremony. The prayers and selections of tlio children wcro most beautifully rendered. During the Invocation of the blessing on the continuants , Mr. S. Heyn played a 'cello solo , and so solemnly im pressive was tlio effect that there was scarcely a dry eye In the house , two chil dren facing IJr. Franklin at once and to gether receiving the benediction. These Who were confirmed are : Helen Ilrandcls , Jcsslo Goctz , Laura Goetz , Arthur Clrottc , May Heller , Lillian Ilellman , Louis Hlller , Eugene S. Kolm. Mildred V. Levy , IJertha Wlllnsky. At tlio conclusion of the service the con- flnnants presented to Leo M. Franklin a purse , handsome with respect both to ma terial and contents. DR. FHANKLIN'S DISCOURSE. The remarks by Dr. Franklin to the par ents and the children were exceedingly Im pressive. His subject was "Tho Modern llevelatlon , " and he spoke , In part , as fol lows : My friends , sweeter even than the pure , unbroken harmony of an angel's serenade should ho our peace of soul when In this fcs- tlvo hour of solemn sacrcdncss we ore as sembled In this house of God to forge a golden link of union between the fleeting , but the living present and the dead , Illimit able and Increasing past , and to cast Into the furrows of the earth those seeds from which shall spring the brilliant Immortelles of truth. In this hour we ore confronted by a simi larity and yet a striking contrast between the present and the past. If wo are to be- llovc that there Is any literal truth in the story of the Slnaic revelation , how grand , how awful and how awe-Inspiring must be the picture that Imagination paints when aroused by the memory of that event. At the foot of a mighty mountain , from whose volcanic crest there leap forth ten thousand fiery tongues , that In their greed seem to lick the very clouds of heaven , stands a people ple , released but yesterday from the yoke of a demoralizing servitude , ready to receive from the (3od who had delivered them , -a code of moral law that was destined to become - como the very corner stone of every legisla tive system , civil and religious , that the civilization of the centuries , then and as yet unborn , was to produce. Amid the thunders of Slnafs majesty and accompanied by the raging and the roaring of the elements there was proclaimed to an untutored people a eystem of ethics that was so clear and all embracing In Its scope , that nll'tlio progress , all the enlightenment , all the philosophy of the later ages has been unable to surpass it or to dispense with It. I care not , friends , whether you accept the account of the Slnaic revelation as recorded In the scriptures as being literally true , or whether in Its broader sense you accept It sit , an allegory proclaiming the subjection of man and of the universe to moral law , the fact remains that the revelation of the ten com mandment ? , whether at Sinai's height or only In the depth of human hearts , was an event In which the Interests of mankind were centered and for which generations oven yet unborn shall have their grateful thanks. The similarity between , the day of revelation and this present time lies In this fact that ns our fathers needed the hand of a divinity to guide them , so , t < . . . , do wo of today have to rely upon the same hand , that same power for direction and for strength In the fulfill ment of our life's stern obligations. Morality Is the Ilfo principle of the universe , and the recognition of the principles laid down In the decalogue is the foundation stone of all morallt : ' . Hut If between the present and the past there Is a similarity In the fact of man's subjection to the laws of right and wrong , there Is a contrast In the mode of the reve lation of these laws. Today no more the thunders of a Sinai roar ; no more does there exist ( thank God for It ) an "Am Scgullo , " a peculiar people , to whom alone God reveals himself ; no more code of right for master and a different ono for slave ; no more a wrong for poverty which Is a right for wealth ; no more a virtue for a Jew that Is a crlmo for a Gcnttlo ; no more a right that Is not a universal right ; no more a wrong that is nod wrong for every man. The revelation of the latter days , bo It from divinity or only from the moral sense of mortal men ; bo It through Inspiration or only through the medium of genius ; bo It from the Sinai's height of a superhuman exaltation or only In the vale of common dally life It is the promulgation of this fact that there Is only ono truth , ono right , ono God nnd ono humanity ; that men arc brothers ; that the fulfillment of the gnlJ- rule Is the best and highest worship ; tl'at charity IB the grandest ceremony ; that truth Is right and right Is truth ; that God la love and love Is God ; this Is the message of the latter revelation , and It comes as directly from the mouth of God himself as over the words of a Slnaic revelation. This , friends , Is a similarity and a con trast between the revelation of the former and the latter days , but there are also others. "Shcvuos" at first was a festival of nature , like many of our other feasts , a time of re joicing over a goodly harvest of fruits and the other products of the earth , and men expressed their gratitude by bringing to the altar of their God the very best of fruits with which tlio All Provider had supplied them. Today , however , the form of our worship Is different. No longer an agri cultural pcruile , wo cannot lay our offerings of mellow fruits at the steps of the altar of our God. Ours Is a grander offering than fruits and grains nnd fatted rams , and ono I foci sura that Is oven more acceptable In the sight of our heavenly Father. Our Bacrlllces are not the fruits of the earth , but those that are nearer and dearer to us than any material goods , the fruits of our tiearts , our souls and our spirits our dear beloved ones , our children , Before the altar of God wo place them In this supremely solemn moment and In Ills name dedicate them to the cause of truth , of righteousness , of love , of justice , of humanity. Wo consecrate them to the ervlce of God and of their fellow-men. Wo sanctify them In the name of charity , un- soinslmi'ss , uprightness ; of all that U good anil true and noble , Oh , may our offerings find favor In the sight of Him Enthroned above and may our children's prayers rise upward , heavenward. Amen. Amen , The Horrors. tit Indigestion , when It takes a long lease of the stomach , are unsurpassed by any de- crlbod by the most sensational writer of ghost stories.

Amcnt was arrested by United States Deputy Marshal Uoclimo yesterday on the charge of using the malls with Intent to de fraud. Amcnt Is a recent arrival In Omaha and Is a young man of good appearance. About two weeks ago Amcnt rented a largo box at the poatofllce and soon ho was receiving from fifty to 150 letters per day. A great deal of this mall was being forwarded from Kansas City , showing that the young man had been operating In that place also. The postal authorities became suspicious and on Investigating found that Amsiit had been advertising In certain papers like this : "What Tommy Saw ; or Caught In the Act. " He stipulated that he would send the thing thus entitled to any address for 12 cents In postage stamps. Ills replies wcro so num'r- ous that he soon had all ho could do , and visibly increased the work of the mailing clerks at the postofllce. Ono of the answers to this advertisement was secured by a gov ernment officer nnd It turned out to he a common card , on which was printed ,1 man and woman In the act of kissing each other. This Is what those received who answered the advertisement and paid the requisite 12 cents. As the cards are worth probably ? 2 per thousand and the postage amounted to 2 cents It left a clear profit of about 9 cents for Mr. Amcnt on every answer that he re ceived , and at the rate of 100 letters rer day ho was enabled to realize quite a nice profit. Amcnt was locked up In the county jail and will be given a hearing before Com missioner Dundy this morning. He cltilms that he Is able to prove that the cards ere north 12 cents each and that ho did not de fraud any one In the transaction. Best $3.00 cabinet photos In the city.

ECHOES FROM THE ANTEROOM Dedication of Omaha's Now Odd Follows Temple Lust Friday Afternoon , DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDING ricnlc * Arranged for by the United AVnrk- men Toinplo of 1'ntr'iircliul Circle I'ytliliin Memorial liny Musonlo llluo Lodge Oniccr * . Last Friday will long be remembered by the Odd Fellows of Omaha as the gala day In the history of the order In the metropolis of Nebraska. The occasion for rejoicing was the dedication of the new temple situated at 112-114 North Fourteenth street , which has just been completed by Omaha lodge No. 2. This Is the oldest ledge In the juris diction of Nebraska , lodge No. 1 , Instituted at Nebraska City nearly forty years ago , having been consolidated with No. 3 , Instlr tutcd a few years later In that city. Promptly nt 2 o'clock , the grand master having taken his station , the grand herald announced the presence of the grand mar shal and heralds at the outer door. Upon being ordered to admit them the doors of the main hall were thrown open , when J. W. Nichols , grand marshal ; J. R. Gllllam , herald of the north ; Thomas Rublcam , herald of the south ; 0. C. Lambert , herald of the cast , and B. M. Raelcy , herald of the west , entered and took possession of the hall In the name of Friendship , Love and Truth. Robed In the emblematic colors of their stations and marching to the music of the piano , which sent forth the beautiful strains of the "Grand Russian March , " they pre sented an Impressive and beautiful picture. The keys to the building were presented to the grand master by Silas Wright , chairman of the board of trustees , and the solemn service of dedication , as prescribed by the ritual , was performed , Past Grand Master John Evans acting as grand chap lain and Past Grand Master Charles A. Pat terson us grand warden. The building of the altar was the first In order , and the heralds of the north , east , south and west brought forth the blocks of stone Inscribed with the motto of the various branches of the or der , the first being Purity , after which the names of Friendship , Love , Truth , Faith , Hope and Charity followed In the order men tioned , the whole being crowned with the royal purple of the patriarch militant and the white crown of peace. After the comple tion , the sacred fire of Love was kindled on the altar by the herald of the south , the struc ture sprinkled with pure water by the herald of the north , followed by the herald of the cast , who sowed the wheat emblematical of Industry , after which the herald of the west scattered flowers over and around the altar , exemplifying the beauties of nature and the wondrous love of God for his children. The dedication odes were admirably sung by the choir from the Seward Street Metho- odlst Eplscpal church. After the dedication Grand Master E. J. O'Neill delivered a masterly address , which was well received by the 300 ladles and gen tlemen present. The afternoon exercise ? closed with the singing of the doxology by the audience. Many members of the order from outside the city were present , J. P. Gage , grand secretary , of Fremont , being among the number. After the close of the exercises the audi ence was invited to inspect the building , which was found complete In all of Its ap pointments. The lot has been in the posses sion of the lodge for many years , and the building was erected at a cost of 228,000. The dimensions nrn 44xCC feet , four stories and basement. The first floor nnd basement will be used for stores. On the. second floor is located the ladles' and gentlemen's par lors , toilet rooms , cloak room , kitchen and dining room , 20x11 feet. The foyer Is nicely tiled and the interior finish is of solid oak throughout.

This room Is carpeted with a costly body Brussels , and furnished with .leather-stuffed sofas , resting on a platform raised four Inches around the entire hall. The officers' chairs are leather upholstered , and comfortable arm chairs are placed In front of the raised platform. The windows are provided with Venetian blinds and the hall Is lighted with a magnificent ihandellcr with forty-eight gas and incandes cent lights. On the ceiling above the chan delier are sixteen incandescent lights In a circle and also numerous side lights. Everywhere one Is Impressed with the fact that the building has been arranged and fur nished with regard for comfort and con venience rather than for display , everything being of the most substantial and modern kind.

The tables In the dining room held covers for 120 persons , and three sittings were necessary in order to allow all to partake of the spread that had been prepared. Sonio of the historical facts connected with the order In Nebraska were presented by Noble Grand J. II. Flannagan In his address , and , as they arc of more than passing Interest , they are here reproduced : Omaha lodge No. 2 received Its charter November 17 , 1855 , from the grand lodge of the United States of America , now the sov ereign grand lodge , signed by William Ellison , grand sire , and James L. Rldgcly , grand secretary. The lodge was Instituted February 1 , 1856 , by D. D. G. Sire J. P. Cassady of Councjl Bluffs , with the following charter members : Alfred D. Jones , Hadley D. Johnson , Taylor G. Goodwill , George Armstrong , and Ambrose S. Bishop. The second meeting was held February 8 , 1850 , on which date the peti tion of Henry C. Anderson was received , and ho was Initiated February 15 , 1S5C , being the 11 rat Initiate. At the fifth regular meeting , on February 21) ) , Rev. William Leech of the Baptist church and Rev. J , F. Collins of the Methodist church were Initiated. On Juno 15 of the same year G. W. Hepburn , J. W. Richardson and John Relk were admitted. On July 8 the degree of Rebekah was con ferred on Mrs. Collins , wife of the Rev. J. F. Collins , she being the first lady to receive that degree In the territory of Nebraska. At that time there were no Rehckah degree lodges and the degree was conferred In the subordinate lodges , while open , In the Re- bekih degree. On July 25 , 1S5G , Dr. George L. Miller was Initiated and was at once assigned to a position on the finance com mittee , with A. D. Jones and George Arm strong. Doubtlrsrf-the present financial con dition of the lodgb Is duo to the wise policy Inaugurated by Utaf committee. On August 1 H. W. TuUlo vni elected to become a member , but wn inot Initiated until Novem ber 7 , the lodge'hiving no suitable hall In which to meet. On November 14 , Judge J. R. Porter , now at Los Angeles , Cnl. , for years probate and. ' police judge In this city , nnd Asa Hunt , . nfterwnrds grand master , wcro admitted by card. On November 28 , John Y. Clapperj. a noted character , whom all the old settlers will readily recall , nnd J. E. Allen , a noted politician , were Initiated. On the same dnto.'ths ' lodge leased the build ing of John M , Thnyer , known as the I'lonecr block , located on Farnam street , be tween Eleventh nnd Twelfth streets , nt a rental of $300 per annum. At that time the lodge consisted of'only sixteen members , and In assuming such a burden they certainly showed their confidence In the order , nnd Its ultimate success. On January 30 , 1S57 , Brother John Logan was admitted by card. On March 27 , 1857 , John M. Thaycr , who has since served his country as governor of the state of Nebraska and ns United States senator , was Initiated , Among others who united with the lodge In Its Infancy were Joseph F. Sheeley , Dr. George Smith ( Dox Box ) , A. J. Simpson , Byron Reed , John McCormlck , John Evans , ex-Unltcd States Senator Alvln Saunders nnd General John M , Chlvlngton , whose relentless pursuit and severe treatment of the Indians provoked so much unfavorable criticism. Among the names mentioned will be found those of many whose wise counsel was of great Im portance In shaping the legislation nnd af fairs of the territory , and the Influence Wielded by the lodge for the general good of society and In moulding the moral senti ment of the community and state , cannot bo overestimated. The name of Dr. George L. Miller and the Important part taken by him In the development of the city and state , Is too well known to need repeating , as Is also the name and deeds of Judge George Armstrong. Alfred D. Jones , who was noted for his Indecision and bashfulness as noble grand of a small lodge of Odd Fel lows , afterwards became a skilled parlia mentarian and a powerful adversary in de bate , whether on the floor of the grand lodge of the United States or on the lloor of the territorial council of Nebraska , to which ho was elected for two successive terms , John Evans settled at the little town of Fontanclle , which he founded In Dodge county , In April , 1855 , and for many years was an active spirit In the affairs of county and state , having served as register of deeds In Dodge county one year , county commissioner of Washington county for three years , In the territorial council for two years , 1S5G-7 , and later In the house of reprcsantatives. After moving to Omaha ho was elected a mem ber of the school board , In which body he served for nine years , and was also a mem ber of the city council. At the time of the Institution of Omaha lodge No. 2 , the entire order numbered less than 175,000 members , nnd was reduced by 70,000 during the war of the rebellion , but since 18G5 It has shown a remarkable and unprecedented growth , numbering today 1,000,000 members , scattered over all portion tion ; , of North nnd South America , Norway and Sweden , the German Empire , Switzer land and the Sandwich Islands. There has been collected and disbursed by this grand army of brothers for the relief of distress since the Institution of the first ledge of In dependent Order of Odd Fellows In Balti more , Mil. , in 1819 , the enormous sum of $102,000,000 , far exceeding the amount ex pended for the same purpose by all of the other secret benevolent orders combined. The order Is represented in this city by nine lodges , with n membership of about 1,500 , and Is posso.sed of property valued at about $150.000. Among tTle members are some of Omaha's best citizens , and the society Is a great bene fit In caring for the needy. Not only does It care for all its own s.ck and Indigent , to gether with the widows nnd orphans of de ceased brothers , but it contributes liberally to the different charltle ; .
