It was the privilege , recently , of the writer
to take a run to Grand Island on No. 811 ,
the locomotive of the celebrated Denver
fast mall. Power and dignity are the charac
teristics of the fast mall as It rolls stately
Into the union depot at Tenth and Mason ,
preparatory to commencing Its run of 150
miles to "the Island. " Grand Island Is the
terminus of the first division of the road and
tha time made from Omaha Is very fast for
llils part of the country. U Is when a person
Is riding on the engine as It plunges through
the darkness , rattles over frogs and switches
and threads Its way through a maze of tracks
and a multitude of many colored lights thai
the Importance and dignity of the engineer's
occupation ore forcibly Impressed upon the
mind. It then becomes apparent how much
depends en the engineer's presence of mind
and devotion to duty.
The power of attention exerted by an en
gineer In running such a train as the Denver
fast mall la certainly wonderful. It It were
applied In literary or scientific pursuits It
would enable a person to become very ac
complished within a short time. A first-
class locomotive engineer , like a poet or a
good roldler , Is born , not made. Long prac
tice la , Cf course , required to make a good
engineer , but there are qualifications requisite ,
such as bravery , steadiness and enthusiastic
love of the work , which many years of ex
perience fail to develop In some. It Is the
same in every pursuit. It U the few that
come to the top. Pride and enthusiasm In
one's work are required to assurs success.
Any ono whose privilege It Is to observe Mr.
Dolan , of Jack Uolan , as ho Is familiarly
known by railroad men , as ho manipulates
the machinery of that Imposing specimen of
human skill , locomotive No. Sll , would soon
conclude that Jack has few equals and no
superiors as an engineer. He Is ono of the
oldest engineers on ths Union Pacific road
and has on unexcslled record. Mike everyone
ono knows Mike keeps things hot on No.
S44. The hard and continuous work he pre
forms during a trip Is astonishing. The
fire must be kept red hot In order to assure
quick time. When It comes Mike's turn to
run a locomotlva ho Is certain to make a
first-class engineer. He Is serving his time
In a good school and under the eye of a good
teacher.
The Denver fast mail Is a very elegant ,
speedy and comfortable means of travel. It
la to be hoped the day will soon ccma when
there will bo a double track all the way to
North Platte , at least. The Union Pacific Is
a grand railroad , especially west from Fre
mont west of the prettiest town the road
Is for the most part straight nnd smooth.
In summer the ride along the Platte river
west from Fremont Is a very pleasant experi
ence. The valley of the Platte looks very
beautiful under the rays of the setting sun.
The writer's dash to Grand Island on No.
S44 was a memorable experience. It la a
mystery to the novlco how the engine stays
on the track. In the night tlmo the rails
as they are illuminated for a short distance
by the headlight look much like two slender
ithreada running away Into the obscurity In
front. They Eeem to be almost too weak to
sustain the panting , pounding and ponderous
imuss of iron that forces- Its way along with
so much power and seeming Intelligence. If
God Is great and wonderfiij In his works , sp
Is man. A magnificent nnd powerful loco
motive going at full speed Is one of man's
works that show forth his Intelligence , hla
dignity nnd his power , and cause us to forget
the many low , mean and purely animal quall-
t'ea ' that enter into his strange composition.
On the trip referred to we arrived at Grand
island on time. There another engine was
awaiting us , ready to pull the fast mall to
North Platte.
It we consider the hard and dangerous
work which rallroat' men ; florform wo shall
agree that It would IIP dlfU iilt to pay them
top veil. Every ( lay thousands of lives
throughout the United States depend upon
the nerve , devotion arid Intelligence of the
railroad employe. tt any one desires to see
for himself how arduous and dangerous Is the
work of the railroad man just let him take
a trip some dark or foggy night on the cnglno
of a train such as thu fast mall.

Clciinlni ; I.nmpi.
To the wise virgin whose lamps burn un-
dlmmed through the long winter evenings , I
went for advice and Inquired of her methods.
"Why do my lamps give a more brilliant
light than those In other houses , " she re
peated. "Possibly because I take better care
of them. Lamps are not to be lighted and
looked at merely , neither arc they to bo of
less value than their covering. Most house
wives spend their mornings In concocting new
shades , making , over old ones or fastening
fresh flowers to tha one In use , That U not
my way. I prefur to devote my time to seeIng -
Ing that the lamps are rewarded for their
genial help of the night before.
"Few women boll out their burners. This
should be done nt least once 'a week. I rub
mine off first with paper , then place them all
1n a sauce pan of balling water and soap suds.
There they remain lor thirty minutes , when
they are rinsed off with clear , hot water , laid
to drain , and afterward carefully rubbed and
polished with a bit of old flannel. I find this
the only way to prevent smoking or unseemly
greaslness.
"In my largo china lamps , where a brass
tank holds the oil , I boil out this metal recep
tacle as well as the burner. I fill the tank
Itself with warm water , letting It come to a
forceful boll on the range. This plan re
moves every suspicion of dirt as well as odor
from the brass. After rinsing off , I dip It In
a weak solution of ammonia and water , then
polish oft with chamois skin nnd silicon.
"This Is my systematic weekly washing
schedule ,
"As to the wicks , I fancy In most lamps
they are not changed frequently enough. I
put In a new one every week. The lamp Is
apt to smoke unless this Is done. Then
never cut your wick. Your eye for a curve
may be excellent , but I'll warrant the arc
ct your flame will never ba perfect If scissors
have been called Into play. When the wick
Is Inserted , simply burn the end off The
blaze wll Imake Ita own pathway more
artistically than you could do , and the after
light will have no ragged edges. Every
morning nip all the burnt edges away with
a flannel cloth.
"A vital point for the maintenance of a
strong glow Is the dally replenishing of the
oil. Never let the wick strain for Us sus-
t nance. Without good nourishment wicks ,
like mortals , will emit a very fecbla flame.
"Of course , my chimneys are polished
every morning. They are 'soused' Into a
generous pan of hot water and coop suds anil
polished oft with clmmolc.
"There Is no denying , " she concluded ,
"that lamps require much attention , but they
are grateful and respond In such a brilliant
manner that one never begrudges the time
spent on them. "

MULTIPLYING CONFESSIONS
Janitor Blixt Tells Moro of the Oold-
Blooded Killing of Mhs Qing ,
SAYS HARRY HAYWARD FIRED THE SHOT
Murder Unit Long llccn I'lnnnml un < l Win to
ijccuro the l.lfn Inuirnticu Curried by
the Unfortunate DrcMinnkcr
SHU Anothnr btory.
MINNEAPOLIS , Dec. 9.-H the confession
voluntarily made by IJIIxt , the Janitor of
the Ozurk flats * , In the presence of Mayor
Hustls , the county attorney nnd the chief
of police today IH true , Harry T. Hnywnnl
fired the shot that killed Catherine ding ,
and llllxt aided him In disposing of the
body.
Ullxt told of his first conversation with
Haywnrd about one month before the mur
der. It was In regard to either the holding
up or the killing of a Chicago man who
had loaned Hnywnnl $100 , the object being
to regain possession of nny papers which
the man might have as nn evidence of
Hnywnrd's Indebtedness , llllxt's Ignorance
prevents him from giving nn Intelligible
idea of just what the transaction was to
be , further than that there was to bo a
lioldup or a murder. Hnywanl proposed , to
send Ullxt to Chicago nnd to have him re
turn from that city when he was wanted.
Hllxt refused to go In It , anil says that
Hnyward went to Chicago himself. Upon
returning from Chicago Haywanl broached
another scheme to him that of setting tire
to a barn. He Induced Ullxt to commit the
act , thu.3 securing u penitentiary hold on
the mnn.
It was shortly after this that the scheme
to murder Miss Glue was broached , Hayward -
ward told him she was completely In his
power and Hint she would do anything lie
told her to. When the scheme of kilting
her was mentioned Hnywaid told him that
by killing bcr lie would regain possession
or J7.000 which he had given her , and , In
addition , would make $10,030 , as she had
"willed" her life Insurance to him. He
offered Ullxt one-fifth , of the amount If
he would commit the deed. Hllxt still re
fused to have anything to do with the
crime and theatened to quit then nnd there ,
whereupon Hayward stated lie would do It
himself , saying : "I would as. soon kill her
as I would a clog. "
This was about a week ago. In his con
fession Ullxt makes no reference to the ride
with Miss Glng , took November 27. Hay-
ward's first plan after ho consented to com
mit the crime himself was to outline his
scheme to Ullxt. There was In the base
ment a T rail about two feet In length.
Hayward directed the Janitor to cut It In
two , Htatlng lie would lake Miss Glng riding
nnd no one would sec him with her. After
he struck her with the iron bar , which he
would carry concealed under his coat , he
then Intended to throw the body out of the
buggy against a curbstone , Htart his horse
on a gallop and then tell the story of a
runaway accident , he calculating that
the body would appear to have been thrown
from the buggy when It collided with the
curb.
curb.WHEN THE SHOT WAS FIRED.
On Monday night Hayward met Dllxt , and
by threats and persuasions and promises of
money induced him to be a partner In the
crime to the extent of aiding In the dis
posal of the body , and make It easy for
Hnyward to commit the crime and return
unobserved Into the city , so that It would
appear that by no possibility he could have
been the guilty party. Hnyward directed
llllxt to proceed at 7:00 : p. m. to the point
on the Excelsior toad where the body was
found , and theie to await his coming. Hllxt
followed out lila Instructions to the letter.
He had been at the point designated about
five minutes when he heard n shot and Haw
a carriage approach. As It drew up he
recognized Hayward as the driver , liny-
ward said to him :
"It Is all done. Jump In nnd drive back
slowly and give me plenty of time to get
back to town , and do not leave here until
'you make sure Bho Is dead. "
llnyward got out of the buggy and Blixt
got In. The woman was on the left hand
side. Ullxt did not look at the woman , and
the only way that he Inferred that she was
dead was because she did not move. He
drove up the Kxcclslor road a piece , then ,
alighting , started the horse and took a
street car into the city. The horse , he
nays , started oft" slowly , and then broke
Into a trot. Hayward arrived at the Ozark ,
Hats at 7:31) : and nt 7H3 was nt the"house
of C. J. Hnrtclpon , fiotn where he took Miss
Uartclson to the theater.
STILL ANOTHER STORY.
Several hours after having made the
above confession Ullxt called the mayor
and chief of police to his cell and said that
he llred the fatal .shot himself. He then
wont on to tell that Hayward had per
suaded Miss Glng that "green goods" oould
be easily circulated through the medium of
her business as n dressmaker. She fell In
with the Idea , and on the night of the mur
der Hnyward had told her that he had ar
ranged for her to meet a green goods dealer
on the outskirts of the city. They started
oft on the ride together. They met llllxt
and Haywanl Induced her to let Hllxt drive
her to the place of meeting , with the as
surance that he would himself follow In
another buggy and be present at the meetIng -
Ing , llllxt then drove the woman out on
ths old Kxcelslor road and shot her. The
body was then dlsi > oscd of as stated In the
previous confession.

ATLANTA , Neb. , Dec. 8. To the Editor
of The Bee : I was very glad to note In
your Issue1 of December 5 that at least one
of our state officials was willing to show
by his annual report some Interest In the
expense , account of the state. I have for a
long time esteemed Hon. Eugene Moore
above the average of state olIlcerB , and
only wish that he had hud the courage In
this exhibit so It would not have looked so
much like a partisan move , ns his present
report would Indicate. Our state affairs
need looking into In detail , and that not
with so much of a partisan. I do not doubt
hut what most of the criticisms are Just ,
but we , ouijht to remember that while the
session of 1831 was a populist legislature ,
yet not more than one or two had ever had
any experience In that line , so It Is not
strange that wo llml In the very next session
they saved $24,026.10 In Incidentals nnd pay
of employes. Uut why did he not tell us
that , according to the state auditor's report
of 1890 , the legislative session of
1SS9. which contained so many old ,
experienced members , cost the tax
payers of this state $27G5I.05 more
than this green farmer body of 1S31. Why
did he not tell the people that this $18 Ink
stand , nnd I suppose also the $20 gavel , was
bought for Lieutenant Governor Majors ,
nnd that by the secretary of state , without
the knowledge or expressed wish of the leg
islative body ? Why did he not tell us that
while section 3.053 ot the Complied Statutes
Ilxes the salary of the governor's private
secretary at $1DOO per year , yet not only
under Governor IJcyd , but also under the
present administration , $2,000 per annum
has been paid , and he has audited the
vouchers for the same. Has reference to
the governor's private secretary been
omitted from the fact that greater honors
have been put upon the professor ? Other
questions might be asked. Hoping not alone
for greater economy , but also some" respect
for law , I remain , yours truly ,

Katie Emm'cit ' and an excellent company
entertained nn enthusiastic audience at
Manager Durgess' Empire theater last even-
Ing1 with a' c6nlmenduble performance of
the Irish drama ; "Killarney. " The least
that can bo stilU of the performance Is that
It Is one of the best stories of life on the old
sod that has been told on the local stage
this season. It Is a happy combination of
the sensational and the romantic , with a
pleasing supplement of native wit and some
of the best songs that have been heard hero
this year.
The story of "Killarney" Is very similar to
that portrayed In the regulation Irish ro
mance , but In this caseIt Is stripped of Its
tiresome features and BO thoroughly en
livened by the marked ability of the players
that It seems llku a new toy. Miss Kmmott
U seen ns Kittle Uurke. whoso patrimony
has been stolen by Martin Kavanaugh and
his daughter , Judith , who bitterly hates
the light-hearted Irish Klrl , whose winsome
face has lured her admirers away. Uut
Kittle has a plan to win back her property
with the aid of her sweetheart , Allan Tracy ,
nnd Cnptaln Doming , a young soldier
In the Urltlsh army , who conceals beneath
his drawling manner the heart of a true
soldier and a gentleman.
Judith and her father succeed In stealing
the marriage certificate of Kiltie's parents
to destroy her claims to the property , but
as they endeavor to also purloin the regis
ter In the parish chapel , so they can declare
her the child of shame , they are balked
by Tracy and a faithful servant. This Is
but the beginning of the fight of the Inno
cent for their rights , but of course villainy
Is eventually put to rout nnd Allan weds
the merry Kittle , while the captain wins a
prize In Oma Kray , who has waited pa
tiently for a proposal.
Katie Kmmett captuied the audience from
the first and her singing and dancing were
repeatedly encored. Kobert Sheridan ns
Allan Tracy was nn excellent Impersonation
of a happy-go-lucky Irish youth , and dis
played a voice remarkably well udnpled
for ballad singing. Hubert Sackett as the
dandified but game captain did a very cred

"Tho Dnzilcr" nt the lloyil ,
"The Dazzler" flashed on two big audi
ences at the Uoyd yesterday and furnished
hilarity enough to easily dispel the gloom
and cares of a week's growth. "Tho Daz
zler" Is built on a plan that admits many
changes without danger or damage to the
plot or continuity of the performance , and
the management has been liberal In the In
troduction of new features , making the
performance this year better than ever be
fore. Mason and Ralston , two specialists ,
who made a hit In a turn with the uccond
company of "The Dazzler" last year , are
with the big1 shbw this year , nnd furnished
a large share of the fun. Mason Is a clever
dancer and singer , nnd his side paitner la
a hummer. Ralston Is a midget of the fourth
dimension. With a fully developed body
he stands less .than three feet In his bro-
Kar.s , and has arms and hands like n child.
Uullke most mldfrits on the stage , he pos
sesses considerable ability as a comedian
and made n dechled lilt In his sonps and
dancing , besidss olng a considerable part
In the regular .presentation . of the play.
The bright particular star of the group
Is Charley Waytierwho Is billed as an ec
centric comedian. His dnnccs are all pe
culiarly his owitH-there are few men who
can dance on Uxelr heads as well ns their
feet and then ucqres of his singing and
character sketcKfts , kept him on the stage
until the janlrSr turned out the lights.
Miss Florrle Wesl , as "The Dazzler , " was
exceptionally gbod , and the other members
of the well selected company did their part
acceptably in fno'of ) the best vaudeville en-
tertalnmcnts yet e n In Omaha.
VLACK.
The Men's League of Plymputh Congrega
tional churchjlil corner of Twentieth and
Spencer streetslOentertalned their friends at
a luncheon last Tuesday .evening. Some
fifty gentlemen sat around the mahogany In
the church parlors to test the culinary skill
of Messrs. Shsldon , Rich and Conant , who
undertook the task of catering to the league.
These gentlemen selected a corps of assist
ants , who , In youthful days , had donned
white aprons In the Whit ? mountains , at
Chautauqua and Oberlln college.
Among the guests of the evening were
Judge Macomber , H. S. Jaynes , Dr. Bryant ,
Mr. Benedict and Prof. Brett , the violinist.
Prof. Brett gave a violin solo and encore
which were highly appreciated.
Judge Macomber gave the address of the
evening on "Religious Influence Its Inspira
tion In Life. "
Mr. II. S. Jaynes responded to the subject
"Kountze Placo" as follows :
A few years since , Kountze Place , unborn ,
Was but a common patch of corn ,
A Held well tilled and fenced with wire
And reached by roads of mud and mire ;
One farm house and a barn. In fact ,
Comprised all buildings on the tract.
The blackbirds and the hungry crows
Swooped down upon the rustling rows.
Whera from plump cars the gopher stole
Its share and scampered lo Its hole.
Then came the long expected boom ;
The growing city needed room ;
And Kountze's homestead , now his pride ,
Was staked In lots quite short , but wide ,
Which sold so fast the extra work
Forced him to hire a clerk.
Then architects , by scores , did plan
Houses the style of good "Queen Anne , "
And painted roofs we re raised so fast ,
Aladdin seemed outdone nt last.
Soon Saunders street was paved with blocks ,
And upper Sherman laid with rocks.
Then Blnney , Spencer , also Wlrt ,
Raised their proud heads above the dirt ,
And other streets were cut to grade ,
Where brick or asphalt should be laid.
And then- came walks and sewer drains ,
And costly gas and water mains ,
And , for a while , no onp wes lax
In paying oft each spjcial tax ,
To help the looks and save expense
Few neighbors hcrq built any fence.
In summer time they love to mass
Their efforts , all , to raising grass ,
Which oft they mow at daylight's close
Or sprinkle with the fragile hose.
A few tho' rules forbid delight
To let their sprinklers whirl nil night ,
To drench their lawns and send a flow
Down on the walks where people go.
As Old Sol runs his- dally race
From Council Uluffs to Dundee Place ,
On Kountze Place only seem to fall
His noon-day beams , the best of all.
Some envious people on the hill
Claim Kountze Place people are always 111
A sad reflection 'twould appear
On all the dcctors llvlnp ; here ;
And yet the -Hlllltcs always do
Point cut Kountze Place their "Choicest
" ' "
View.
The games which need the open air
Are played here onour vacant square ,
There cricket , tennis , likewise ball ,
Hold sway from 'early spring till fall ;
At some homes , 'good , old-time croquet
Far Into night the young folks play ;
Here , now and then , the headlights gleam
O'er lawns where ladles serve the cream ,
Where Chinese lanterns noftly awing
Or blazlnrr fall from off their string.
When mellow autumn days are gone ,
And folks have put their storm sash on.
And all their winter coal Is In
Their cellar or the dealer's bin-
Then Kountze I'iapeiieople love to sit
And play at cardattmi bandy wit.
And strive , as fbf a ; precious boon ,
To carry off prize- cup or spoon ;
No matter howiifhejKame may BO
Each player lwa > > ( clulms the "low. "
And now the men of Plymouth church
Have left the ladles In the lurch ,
And gathered hurt1 , "an antlered crew ,
To break their fn"t .with oyster stew.
When each "stag here hath drunk his fill"
One thought may haunt his conscience still ,
And make him -wish his wife were here
To share with him the present cheer.
TIs this. If dull times duller grow
They both may have to feed on snow
Then let's get up another gorge
And ask the 14dles In , by George !
They like to eat as well as we ,
And. would enjoy this sort of enrce.
\\e know 'tis true , and not a Jib ,
A wife Is but her husband's rib.
Suppose they found a ladies' club ,
Anil every one of us they tmub ,
Let's try to head off such disgrace
From Plymouth church of "Sweet Kountze
Place. "
Impromptu addresses we're made by several
of the party , closing with a few well chosen
words by the pastor. Rev. J. A. Fisher.
A social hour followed , In which each
man who had failed to get a chance to
tell his favorite story at the. tables found
audience In a group ot Jovial friends , and at
10 p. m. the party broke up , each man avow
ing that It Is Indeed a good thing for
biethren to dwell together In unity.
WHAT JE\VS \ THINK OF JESUS
Dr. Franklin Explains Why They Do Not
Acoapt Him as the Messiah ,
GREAT REFORMER BUT NOT DIVINE
Story at III * Llfo Mmto to Fit the 1'roptio-
cles Wlicro lie ICrroil In Judgment
When True
iru : Will Come.
At Temple Israel Friday evening Rev. Dr.
Leo M. Franklin delivered a lecture explain
ing why the Jews did not accept Jesus as
the Messiah. lie said In part :
There Is no realm of thought , or action , If
you prefer so to phrase It. In which the law
of cause and effect Is more constantly active
than In the domain of history. The destinies
of men and nations , and not shaped by chance ,
but follow from exact and clearly defined
causes , as surely ns does the chemical re
action or the electrical resultant In the
sphere of physics. And. therefore , It happens
that men of keen Intellect and sound Judg
ment may , as It were , rend the voll of the
future and with their natural eye gaze upon
scenes that In reality have not yet been
enacted , but which from the very nature of
things must como to pass , unless the order
of nature and the universebo overturned.
In ancient times such men were regarded as
being possessed of superhuman powers , and
were called soothsayers , prophets and seers
Inspired of God ; today , when reason Is the
mentor of men's lives , they are regarded ,
not ns superhuman , but as men endowed
with unusual prudence and Judgment and
In the language of the hour are known as
clover statesmen. IJut do not misunderstand
mo. I do not wish to efface ono lota of glory
that Justly belongs to the prophets , that Il
lustrious line of noble men , wnoso names In
the world's literary firmament stand out
ns a galaxy of the most brilliant stars. Far
bo It from mo to say a word of them that Is not
with reverence. Hut this I do say and wish
to emphasize , that In Judaism the prophet
has never been gifted with superhuman
powers , and the most that wo have over
ascribed to him Is the ability to Interpret
the moving forces of his own time. He was
the pious , God-fearing , prudent man , but he
was never regarded as the fortune teller , who
could predict the future without a knowledge
of present circumstances ; ho was not the
oracle who could rea'd the fate of men In the
flight of birds or in the motions of the
leaves.
STORY MADE TO FIT.
With this thought clearly In mind , I be
lieve that you will be prepared to appre
ciate the statement that It would bo Incon
sistent with the character of the biblical
prophets to Imagine that they did , or were
able , to phophesy particularly or even In
definitely the coming ot Jesus , an event that
took place more than 400 years after the
death of the latest of them. Wo therefore
believe that the theory of many writers Is
a fcasablo one , that the whole Chrtstologlcal
story was written "post festum , " and that
It was so constructed as to fit the biblical
prophecies , and hcnco seem to be their ful
fillment.
But there are also other rcaspns on ac
count of which the Jews arc unwilling to
concede the Mcsslahshlp of Jesus. Such con
cession Is made Impossible , especially when
wo regard the career of Jesus from the
standpoint of authentic history. We are not
at all In sympathy with those who would re
gard the existence of Jesus as a myth and his
life history as a legend , but we do believe
that his Messlahshlp was not genuine , and
that It was simply a direct result of the
temper of terms ; that he himself did not wish
to pose as a Messiah , and that his doing so
was a matter beyond his own control. To
prove these theories , I beg you to turn with
mo to the pagea of history and read what
there Is written.
You "will recall that upon the death of
Herod , the wicked , Inhuman king of Judea ,
his son Archelaus assumed the reigns of
government and under the title , Ethnarch ,
tried In a feeble way to Imitate the vices of
his father. After a reign of about nine years ,
how-over , he was banished by Roman decree
In the year 0 C. E. , and his dominions de
clared forfeit to Romo. From this tlmo on
Judea lost every vlstage o'i Independent gov
ernment , and having sunk to the rank of a
mere province became subject In all things
to Rome.
Rome began her rule In Judea by forfeiting
the dominions of the reigning Ethnarch and
practically enslaving the Jews. Corenlus Is
appointed to take the census and levy taxes ,
but stout hearts rebel against this degrading
humiliation , and Insurrection Is rife. Then
It Is that the party known as the zealots
arises , a party that will not bo satisfied save
with the downfall ot the foe. Under such
circumstances It Is that a certain Juda of
Galilee musters the Hebrews for battle and
bravely leads them on to conquer or to dlo.
Out ho Is captured by the Romans -and be
headed Just In time to escape the dangerous
distinction of being proclaimed the Messiah.
I quote this to show the temper of the times.
EFFECT OF ROMAN OPPRESSION.
In the year 14 C. E. the Emperor Augustus
dies and Is succeeded at Rome by Tiberius
Nero. Whatever may have been the good
Intentions ot this man at the beginning of
his reign. It Is not long until ho proves him
self to bo the most cruel despot with whom
the Jews as yet have had to deal. A wicked
man named Aellus Sejanus having suc
ceeded In Ingratiating himself Into the favor
of the emperor , persuaded him to appoint
Pontius Pilate , the embodiment of every vice ,
as procurator of Judea. Ho began his reign
with an attempt to abolish the Jewish re
ligion. At this tlmo the Influence of Judaism
was making Itself 'felt ' among the heathens ,
but the moro one class ot gentiles was at
tracted to It , the more bitter became the op
position from the other side. The outrages
of Pilate did not stop at the enactment ot
cruel laws , but on ono occasion ended In an
open massacre of the people.
Out such cruelty and opposition had a pro
found Influence upon the Jews themselves.
When Justice was , outraged , morality disre
garded and the kingdom ot heaven laughed
to scorn , the first question that they asked
themselves was this : "Why does God bring
these punishments upon his people ? Why do
wo suffer such unseemly penalties ? " And
from one side , from the stern and rigid
teachers came the answer , "Because of your
sins does God punish you and the only way
to restore the kingdom of heaven Is by re
pentance , asceticism and mortification ot the
flesh , " I wish to call your special attention
to this fact , which you will readily observe
to be true , that this religious Idea ot cleansing
the people from sin by stern repentance was
ot a patriotic origin. One of those who
taught this doctrine was John the Baptist.
But the great bulk ot the Hebrews did
not belong to his followers. The Jews were
no ascetics and no visionaries , and they
were unwilling to admit that they were any
worse than tholr fathers. They could not
look at matters with the eyes of John , nor
could they see that It was because ot their
misdoings that God had called down upon
them the vengeance ot Rome. But this
Irritated John , and when they would not
agree with him and mortify themselves he
became wroth and called them "a genera
tion of vipers. " ( See St. Luke. Ch. HI. ) But
mutual denunciation only served to Increase
John's popularity , and the revivals at the
river bank often assumed the proportion of
Insurrections. This alarmed Herod Antlpas ,
the Roman governor ot Galileo , and ho had
John quietly put out of the way , and , as wo
read , beheaded shortly Afterward , nt a place
outside ot his dominions ,
WAS JOHN'S DISCIPLE.
I3ut with his dcnth the sect did not como
to an end. John the Baptist had sent forth
qulto a number ot disciples , among the most
enthusiastic ot whom was a certain Jesus ot
Nazereth. The exact date of his birth Is
uncertain. Though contrary to his own
statement ( see St. Mark , Ch. XII. ) , his
biographers rrmko him a descendant of David ,
but In doing to Inevitably cast a shadow on
his parentage. They do so. however , and
here ngaln wo nro brought faceto face with
the matter dealt with In our opening para
graphs , In order to see fulfilled In his career
certain prophecies of the Old Testament
which they have cither wilfully misconstrued
or Ignorantly mlxlnterpiotcd.
And this brings us once again to the point
at Issue. Wo look upon Jesus not as a Mes
siah foretold by the prophets of our bible ,
but as a Messiah by the force of circum
stances. John nnd Jesus were not the only
saviors produced by the violence of the Ro
mans. As already said , Juda of Galilee
barely escaped this questionable but very
dangerous honor. Another savior of the
time , according to the historian Josephus ,
was a Samaritan who called his disciples
to Mount Gcrlzlm , but both ho and they were
captured and executed by the order of Pilate.
The temper of the times demanded a Mes
siah , nnd contrary to his own desires , Jesus
was the unfortunate one upon whom was
thrust that dangerous distinction. While
John the Baptist was still at large , Jesus
continued In his spirit and always with refer
ence to his authority to teach repentance by
asceticism , fasting and self-humlllatlon. Hemet
mot with the same opposition as his pre
decessor , and was successful only among the
lowest classes.
But Jesus was a man of moro liberal
thought than John , and It was not long before
ho deserted the asceticism ot John and
branched out to the broad humanltarlanlsm ot
the Hlllel school , propounding his doctrines In
almost the Identical words ot his master , Hll
lel , the Jow. Jesus was no longer a hermit ,
but ho became a man among men.
GREAT MORAL REFORMER.
With the moral teachings of Jesus no fault
can ha found , but his political policy was n
grave mistake. He wished to turn backwards
the tide of hlstor , 1,000 years and to return
to the theocracy of Samuel. If the Romans
Interfere , convert nnd Inve them , was his doc
trine. But alas. It was too Ideal a thought
for this very material world. And Jesus knew
It. He exhorted his followers not to pro
claim him as their Messiah , ns It would enta.l .
for him pain and suffering and maylw death ,
and it was therefore much against his will
that early In the year 36 Peter announced
Jesus as the Messiah. Hut now the word
was out and he could do nothing against It.
By the great mass of the Hebrews ho was
not received as the Messiah , for their hope
was not for a religious savior , but for n polit
ical redeemer. It Is true the cruel edicts
of the Romans had filled the minds ot the
Hebrews with the thought that a political
redeemer must soon come , and any ono who
would have como as such would have been
hailed as Savior and Messiah. Upon such
circumstances did Peter rely when ho pro
claimed Jesus ns the Messiah. But of the
failure of his proclamation and of Its dis
astrous consequences wo are all aware.
The charge preferred against Jesus by the
Romans , and for which by them he was put
to death ( for remember that when Judea be
came a Roman province the right to pass and
execute sentence of death was taken from the
Jews and transferred to the Romans ) ; the
charge , I say , for which he was executed was
this one , purely political , -and not religious ,
that he was breeding sedition by proclaiming
himself king of the Jews. Roman bigotry
and fanaticism must answer for many a crime
ot which this Is by no means the least.
As Jews , while we admire the manhood
and ths character of Jesus , wo must reject
his Messlahship and his divinity , because
history , v < 5 believe , does not bear out his
right to such distinction.
MIRACLES AND ATONEMENT.
The Jews base not a single doctrine on
myth , miracle or supernatural manifesta
tion of any kind. For them therefore the
commonly accepted theory as to the Im
maculate conception and the divine father-
ship of Jesus would have but little weight.
The miracles' that he himself performed
were done before him , we believe , almost
without exception , by the prophets of the
OKI Testament..but iiqither in. regard to
them iior him do they ' have any
Influence over our mode of thinking.
Is not God manifested sufficiently In nature
and In man ; In the smallest blade of grass
even as In the mightiest of the creatures
of this earth , that we should need the
miraculous and supernatural to prove his
presence and his power ? The birth of
Jesus and his miracles provo nothing to us
of his Mcssiahshlp.
Of the doctrine of the vicarious atonement
of Jesus I have spoken more than once
from this pulpit. To the Jewish mind It Is
unthinkable that one man should bear the
sins of the multitude ; that by his death ho
should atone , vicariously for the errors of
past anil future generations. Wo believe and
teach that no one can atone for the sins of
another and that the only mediator be
tween God and man Is the Individual lite
of righteousness.
For all these reasons , and others which
the limits ot our time will not allow us to
adduce , the Jews cannot consistently accept
Jesus of Nazareth as their Messiah.
But , friends , In these facts there Is a les
son for us all , Jews and non-Jews alike. It
Is the lesson of tolerance. The Jews look
upon Jesus as a good , pious , honorable man ,
whose motives were ot the best , and whoso
Intentions were the noblest , though , unfor
tunately , his judgment , we believe , was at
fault. Wo regard htm as a man who has
brought much good Into the world and we
blame his followers for errors that have been
committed In his name. Wo grant
him no divine attributes , however ,
nor do we look upon him as a
heaven-sent Messiah , though all reasonable
men agree that ho was a reformer who
lived far In advance of his time. Though
the views of his followers do not coincide
with our own , still we respect them , for we
regard as sacred any convictions that are
honest and sincere , whether they bo the
offering of Christian , Mohammedan or Jewish
heart aye. WB hold In high esteem any man
who has the courage of his own convictions.
That this same liberality which we accord
to others may be shown to us Is the only
return that we ask.
May the tlmo soon come when men , moro
liberal than their creeds and dogmas , Irrespective
spectiveof sect , will live together In
brotherly love , peace and harmcny , worshipIng -
Ing at the shrine of that God who Is the
Father ot humanity , for then beyond a
doubt , the Messianic era will be hero.
