Most , If Ml all , of the Methodist pulpits
In the city .and some of those ol other de
nominations , were occupied yesterday by min
isters who are attending the North Nebraska
conference.
TIjp Seward Street Methodist church never
before held such a , multitude of people.
Every pew was packed to Its ulmcst capacity ,
every aisle was filled with chairs or standing
listeners , and even the steps leading down
Into the basement wcro crowded. And the
multitude overflowed from the church and
extended to the steps that lead to the front
entrance.
The occasion that drew out this congrega
tion was a sermon by Dlshop Andrews , who
has been presiding over the North Ne
braska conference , which has been In session
at the Seward Street church slnco last
Thursday morning ,
It was after 11 o'clock ere the people
ceased arriving , nnd when quiet at last
reigned the choir sang an anthem , after
which there was prayer. Dlshop Andrews
read the scripture lesson. Then the entire
congregation joined In singing "How Firm
a Foundation. "
Ulsliop Andrews took for the central
thought of his sermon the story of the blasted
flK tree. The day that Christ attempted to
pluck the fruit from the tree , which ap
peared to be tearing , and found It to
bo barren , he cursed It. The next day Ills
disciples wandered back over the road and
found the leaves of the tree withered and
the tree dying.
OR ACE HAS AN END.
There are some who hold that God In Ills
goodness will eventually save all mankind.
The trouble with this doctrine Is. that there
la no such God. We get our Icnovvledge of
God from the bible anil from nature. Those
who point to the scripture which says "God
Is love , " as n proof o their belief that He
will eventually save all mankind , fall to
point -us to the scripture which says "Our
God Is a consuming fire. " Many people look
upon the olive groves and beautiful vine.-
yards that grace the slopes of Vesuvius and
seem to forget the burled Pompe.l and llcr-
cutanoum at the base. There Is but one way
to have a strong Christian faith , and that is
to have a strong and deep-rooted conviction.
A great many people repeal the creed and
the catechism without a stumble and yet
have no faith whatever. What the Christian
world needs today Is. a practical recognition
of God.
The bishop's sermon was an earnest plsa
for a more earnest work In the church , for
a more practical Christianity , for a more
earnest effort for the upbuilding of the Mas
ter's kingdom. Itas listened to with the
deepest attention , nnd It produced a marked
'effect upon the oud'encs.
At the conclusion of the sermon the ordi
nation of deacons was observed with due
solemnity. The class of nine was made up
of young men who have been working In
the ministry for the past two years , and
who will again go out from the confer
ence with renewed energy and zeal ,
IjIFlTS JUNIPER TREES.
Chancellor Crook of the Nebraska Wesleyan - '
leyan university at Lincoln , occupied the
pulpit at Trinity Methodist Episcopal church
yesterday morning. Ho delivered a sermon
on the life and trials of thc < prophet Elijah ,
and compared the life of the prophet with
the lives of Christians of the present day.
Ho told of the tribulations of the people be
fore Elijah was forced to flee from their
wrath , and of his flight Into the wilderness ,
where he sought shelter under a juniper
tree and prayed that death might corno to
his relief. An angel brought him food and
Sustenance , after which ho ascended the
mount and was with God for forty days
and nights.
"We (1ml ( Elijah In a sad plight under the
Juniper tree , " said ChancIlor Crook. "He
was In ttte desert 150 miles southeast of
Jerusalem , ami the juniper trees In that
locality are about equal to the small shrub
bery which grows on our own sandhills. He
was aloiie , without a living thing to attract
his attention , and only two days previously
he had to flee for his llfo from the king's
couriers. He was tilled with the same feel
ings as the pcopto of today would be If
placed In n Ilka position. With the robe of
a sheepskin for a covering he lay under the
Juniper tree and was filled with such anguish
of spirit that ho prayed for God to come anil
take his life. It Is the only prayer that
God1 did not answer as r : iuestcd , and he
sent on angel with food to strengthen the
weary prophet for tlio long Journey Into the
tnonntflliiH which He had wilted.
' "A prominent and brilliant writer , and a
'good churchman once asked mo If I had ever
coitoinplflr ) < l BPlMostructlon In my" life. V
replied no , and then he told me that I did
not hno\y the real meaning o genuine suff.r-i
Ing.
IS AN UNWELCOME SHADE.
"It Is too often that \\c go to our homes
after a hard day's struggle with the cares of
the world , nml with liopdess dejection. We
nro then under our Juniper treeof experi
ence , but with abiding'faith ' we seek consola
tion. Tlio way under the Juniper tree Is
man's nay , but the way from under Is God's
way. God gave Elijah sleep and rest , and
It Is sometimes better to sleep than to pray.
The story of the widow's contribution nnd
Its return a thousand fold , after which the'
life of her only son was saved , was told , and
the chancellor thought that this was a good
cxnmplp for the church people to follow In
their support of the. churches and colleges
during the present liard times. Rut he said
It "nns human nature for us to lose our
courage when we spent our last shilling and
poverty was staring us In the face , as It did
the poor widow. Ho said that God got
Elijah from under the Juniper liceby feed
ing him nnd preparing him for the Journey
up Into the mountains. But Elijah's spirit
was sorely wounded and he did not gain
courage until he had had a personal Inter
view with God , Then ho became fllled with
new hopes nnd consolation ,
"This Is what wo should do , We cannot
no into themountins to visit ptrsirally with
God , but we can go Into our closets and there
receive Ills consolation. Wo must all go to
God. As we tell the story of our grievances
to consoling friends they become smaller , and
wa take new courage , just us Elijah did alter
going up Into the mountain. God consoles
us with a still small voice and we are led to
toke up life's struggles with new hopes nod
greater courage , and look upward nnd onward
to that better life nnd reward beyond , "
In the evening Hcv , Dr. Plllsbury of Put-
lerton occupied the pulpit at this church , and
It was announced that on next Sunday Jlev.
Dr. Saundcrson , the new pastor , would deliver
his Inaugural sermon.
THIIEB DIVINE INSTITUTIONS.
The pulpll of the Hanscom Park Methodist
Episcopal church was occupied yesterday
morning by Rev , A. U. Leonard , thn mis
sionary secretary , The music was furnished
by a choir of thirty voices and was a feature
, of ttie eervlceIn the preliminary service
the choir Sang the well known anthem ,
! "JIoly , Holy , Holy , " after which the Invoca
tion ; was given by Key. 0 , P. Calkins of
'Chicago. The choir rendered the anthem ,
. "Jlejolce | n the Lord Jehovah , " after which
( lie responsive reading was led by the pastor.
Dr. .I/eonard preached from the- text , "The
church of tbe living God , the- pillar and
ground of the truth. " The three and only
three divinely appointed Institution ; , said
Dr. Leonard , are the family , the church and
tlia state. Other Institutions of a noclal ,
political and economic nature exlit , but none
of them have Die divine sanction , The thrro
first , named stand as having been divinely
appointed and ordained for the advancement
and upbuilding of Uio. world. The famllj
naturally stands first. In that first human
pain , created by God at the beginning of the
world God established the flr-it family , and
there existed In that first family both the
church and th elate. In that first family
Adam was -the husband and father , the
prUit and kin ? . The development of both
church and state was a natural sequence
of ths development of th family. The
jCburch bad Id Inception in tb HUla family
gatherings around the' family altar. AR
families multiplied they naturally combined
together In their worship of the creator.
Then came a regularly established form of
wonhlp and the church was born , 80 , lee ,
developed the state , The rapidly Increasing
number of families soon resulted In the
formation of tribal relations , and as thesa
tribes grow In strength come the first chief
tain , then the patriarch , and finally the king.
Thus the family , church nnd the state are
the product of a single mind. No civilized
government OP nation on earth exist * today
where the trinity of family , of church and
of state Is- not recognized ns the base of the
social fabric. It wo visit those lands where
the family Is debased we find a debased gov
ernment and a debased church. If the church
Is dwarfed we find an Imperfect family. It
the slate Is corrupt wo are certain to find
a corrupt church and a corrupt family. God
created the family , the church and the slate ,
and they must exist , each dependent upon the
other.
Dr. Leonard devoted a large part of his
sermon to a discussion of the danger of
the church sinking to the level of a mere
ecclesiastic machine , and claimed for the
Methodist church that Its whole power for
good rests solely In Its adherence to the
worship of the church of Christ with the
spiritual life as the guarding principle.
POWEIl FIIOM ON HIGH.
Hev. "William Worley of Columbus , Neb , ,
preached at the People's church yesterday
forenoon. The visiting clergyman was In
troduced by the pastor , Rev. C. W. Savldge.
As an Introduction Mr. Worley said that he
remembered preaching In the same room
about eleven years ago. The preacher took
for his text : "But ye shall receive power ,
after that the Holy Ghost Is come unto you
nnd ye shall be witnesses unto Me , both In
Jerusalem and In all Judea and Samarld and
unto the uttermost parts of the earth. "
Mr. Worloy especially directed his remarks
o the- sentence In the verso which says , "Ye
shall receive power. " He said that every
"hrlstlan has been confronted with this fact
very rarly In his Christian llfo as he comes
o meet the realities of this life , anil Chrls-
IEUIH must do their ; duty though the heavens
all.
all."It
"It means something , " said the preacher ,
'to be a follower of Jesus Christ , God is so di
recting and shaping men's lives that they
shall have something to do for Him , and
after their labors here ore ended they shall
nter upon the enjoyment of the life ever-
bating. When the great trumphet sounds , n
Christian worker wilt not be asked what
church he belonged to , but whether he has
olthtully carried out the teachings of that
jrentest of all teachers , Jesus Christ. U he
lias done that success will come to him. He
hat falls Is to blame , for hath not the Lord
RB.UI , 'Ye shall have jJower ? ' That Is what
le told His disciples during their troubles.
There Is power In association , where a few
nro banded together for good work. The
loly Ghost will surely be present anil fur
nish the power and Inspiration. "
"If we find , " said the preacher , "that
no have had victory up ta this hour , let a
peal of praise ascend from this house of wor
ship to heaven today. I believe In the
spirit directing and putting the religion of
the true God into a man's heart In three
minutes , and If there is any one' here who
Is skeptical , I hope he will be visited by the
spirit before he leaves this building. Christ
B the great teacher and we should all fol
low In His footsteps. You all need power
from above ; I hope you will pray for It.
Have courage and rely on God. Christ told
his disciples to have faith and they should
receive power. It requires power from the
Holy Ghost for the disciples to stand up
and proclaim their love and fidelity to Jesus
Christ. Wo have to fight to win a prize.
God Is going to lay heavy burdens upon
us and we will need the power of the Holy
Ghost to safely pass through tribulations. "

AMATEUR THEATRICALS A FAVORITE IDEA

l.ocnl Ucrmnn Gossip.
German club circles arc now busy nr-
ranglng details for Indoor entertainments.
The echoes of the many successful outdoor
pleasures ' had hardly died away before
thoughts for enjoyments during the winter
months bccan to come.
The local Treubund lodges were the first
to set the pace two weeks ago- , and last
evening the Omaha turnvereln followed vMi
a dramatic production at thoTurn hall.
These amateur theatricals are to continue
during the entire season , with Intermissions
of about two weeks. Extraordinary efforts
nt producing excellent plays have been made
by the efficient management , consisting of
Messrs. William Allstadt , Philip Andres and
Theodore Becker.
In order to create renewed Interest In the
turnvereln the society has begun publishing
a clul ) organ entitled "Gut Hell. " The Oc
tober number was Issued a few days ago.
Another Important step was taken last week
when the society , at its regular meeting , suc
ceeded In securing the services of Prof.
Henry Kummerow In place ot Emll Watzen-
born , retired , as Instructor of the turn-
vcrcln.
Mr. Kummerow'a election to this position
Is a matter of congratulation among the
members , who have long wished for such a
change. The new Instructor , besides being
thoroughly efficient In courses' of physical
training , which were acquired with years of
teaching In vcrelns and the Omaha public
schools , is of gentlemanly demeanor , an
essential quality In a man who is charged
with the duty of Instructing in physical
culture not only adults , but children of
more tender yearn , as well as ladles. The
present choice of the turnvereln finds , there
fore , no dissenters In tlic- ranks , and It Is
confidently expected that new stimulus will
be furnished by such a timely selection.
Hereafter boys ranging in age from 6 to
12 : years will receive training on Tuesday
afternoon of every week , while those from
12 ! to 16 years are accommodated on Tues
days and Fridays. Qlrls and misses are to
exercise on Wednesdays and Saturdays , and
] ladles evenings. The actives will drill on
Tuesday and Friday evenings and the bears
evo'-y , Wednesday evening ,
On October 8 the regular monthly meeting
of the society Is to be held. In connection
with the different courses In physical training
a German school Is to be opened by the 15th
ot the month ,
The recently finished club rooms on the
first floor were opened with eclat Saturday
night. Altogether the Omaha turnverlen can
boast of better prospects for the future than
heretofore.
The Lelderkranz Singing society Is per
fecting arrangements to give a grape pick
ing on October 14. Usually an entertainment
ot ( his character attracts many visitors to
the hall.
October 21 the Saengerbund js to give a
festive occasion at the completion of a
costly stage and settings for Its Farnam
street hall. An enjoyable evening Is presaged.
The same society Is also planning to give a
vocal and Instrumental concert on the 27th
of this month In the Turn hall. The services
of the * First Infantry , N. N. , G. , band , as
well as those of Profs. Joseph Gahm and

any other country In the world has nny
trains as fast for the distance as the Empire
State express , which runs 440 miles at 60.7
mtlea an hour , Including four stops ; or as
fast tor the distance as the defunct Exposi
tion Flyer of last eummcr , which ran 964
miles at 4S.S miles an hour , Including nine
stops.
Among the very fast special trains we find
the following pretty authentic records of
performances In the United States , which ,
so far as [ know , have not been equaled In
, England , since a run made on the Great
Western In 1818 of fifty-three miles at
sixty-eight miles an hour , and that was not
up to the best of those given hero. Septem
