nev. Thorn : ' Anderson of the Calvary
Baptist church Is preaching a series of ser
mons based on the recently published book
of Dr. A. J. Gordon on "The Ministry of the
Spirit. " Yesterday morning his spsclflc topic
was "Tho Administration of the Spirit. " Ho
selected as his text "He that hath an ear let
him hear what the spirit salth to the
churches , " He said In part : *
It la the glorified Christ's message to the
seven churches of Asia , which In the judg
ment of our foremost commentators were In
tended to represent the entire church then
and down to the close of the present age.
Its oft repetition Is certainly suggestive of
the urgency and paramount Importance the
Lord attaches to It. Was It a failure to
listen for the voice of that divine person
and honor Him , which lay at the root of all
the trouble and mlschl ° f which alieady had
commenced to work in these early churches ?
That U self-evident. The Christ from the
throne then would bring back the church
to her place of power by calling her to make
the spirit once more supreme In all things.
With frequent reiteration does the new
testament remind us when Christ went up
the spirit came down. Heaven Is tlio seat of
the visible Christ for us , where He is In His
olllclal capacity. The true church on earth
Is the scat of the Invisible Christ In the
world , with us and In us through His spirit.
All of the Interests on earth , of the absent
Christ , have been turned over to the spirit
as His representative and executor or ad
ministrator. The church only fulfils her mis
sion to the extent that she Is the Spirits
habitation and Ills loyal , willing servant.
The church In all of Its officers , government
nnd work was placed under the Spirit's con
trol nothing left to the Independent choice
or wisdom or caprice of man.
There Is such a thing as a divine call to
the ministry and to a specific field , the ma
terialism of the present hour to the contrary
notwithstanding. It Is positively apalllng the
way both by churches and preachers this
whole business Is taken out of the Spirit's
hands entirely. The mind of the Spirit is
made at the best secondary. Churches are
utterly bereft of their true power ; churches
nro fast dying , for the reason that brilliancy
and polish are too often made tha first es
fr sential for their preacher. The preacher's
true position Is that of the organ of the Spirit
to the church and world. There Is a pro
found truth which the pulpit needs to come
to underlying Horton's book , entitled "Ver-
bum Del. " What a drift there Is away from
this conception and the pti'plt Is made a throne
for the demagogue or a pedestal for the dude
to plume himself or the rostrum for the
lecturer. Says Horton : "Our generation Is
rapidly losing Its grip on the supernatural ,
nnd as a consequence the pulpit Is rapidly
dropping to the level of the platform. And
this decline Is due , wo believe , more than
anything else to nn Ignoring of the Holy
Spirit as the supreme Insplrer of preaching
Wo wish to see a great orator In the pulpit
forgetting that the least expounder of the
word , when filled with the Holy Ghost , Is
greater than he. We want the gospel , for
sooth , but In the strenuous demand that It
be set forth according to the spirit of the
ago wo Ignore the supremacy of the spirit
of God , "
Nothing Is so utterly out of place and so
dishonoring the Most High as a demagogui
or mountebank or cloVvn or humorous lecture
or pyrotechnic showman In the pulpit , dls
ploying his wares for the gratification am
admiration of the beholders.
With regard to the service of sons , If th
spirit Is not Its Inspiration It Is an oftens
to God. The Introduction of the theater Into
the church , the operatic singing. ' the prlma
donna hired to trill for our delight and sing
for the devil tomorrow nlgh't , all that w1l
be unknown when the spirit Is enthronei
In the singing ,
The church with Its lack of power , thi
Christian conscious of his weakness need t
como back to this message. Hear what th
Spirit salth. Alas the noise and din am
bustle nnd business and fashions and pleas
ures of the world so nil our ears that we hav
no ears to hear when the Spirit speaks an
eocks to clutho us with Ills own dlvln
power.
INSl'lUATION 01' TIII2
Sermon of Dr. Invln ut the Clifton 1111
rro.bvtrrmn Church.
Preaching on "The Inspiration of th
Blblo" yesterday Ilev. Dr. S. T. Davis o
the Clifton Hill Presbyterian church said , ii
substance :
The blblo Is an Inspired , God-breathd ,
living book , Into whose pages Is breathe *
the breath of life , as Into man's nostril
waj breathed life In his creation. It Is the
living word , the expression of God himself.
Jesus Is the eternal word Incainato , In the
flesh ; the bible Is the word written.
There are degrees In revelation. Men did
not understand all they wrote. There arc
no degrees In Justification , because It Infal
libly records truth. The bible as a revelation
communicates truth. Inspiration Infallibly
records what God reveals to man. Not the
present copies or translations , but the orig
inal autographs In Hebrew nnd Greek of the
sixty-six books of the bible , were Inspired
by the Holy Ghost. They have been kept
pure through nil time. The blblo not only
contains the word of God , but It Is "Tho
Word of God. " The chief thing Is the fact
rather than the mode of Inspiration. A child
Is born as n fnct. It's mode of growth Is
a mystery of nature.
The modes of revelation are God's man
ner of speaking to men along the ages.
God sneaks.to men , us a father speaks to
his child. God spoke to Adam and Noah by
a voice. He spoke to Jesus at Jordan by a
voice : "This Is My Beloved Son. " He spoke
by theophanlcs , as to Moses by the burning
bush. Ho spoke to Joseph by dreams. He
spoke to Isaiah and others by visions ; by
Unum and Thuminum ; by men , as prophets
and apostle' , and , above all , by Jesus Christ ,
"who spake as man never spake. " Chris
tians ought to be "living epistles , " "known
nnd served of all men , "
Inspiration proper Is an extraordinary , dl-
vlno Inlluence upon teachers , \\hllst giving
Instruction , by which they were taught how
and what they should write or speak. The
bible Is Godx ? book and man's book. Im-
manucl , God with us , God speaking through
men , who spukVas they were moved by the
Holy Ghost Inspiration gives God's sanction
to the truth. It gives the right verbal form.
If o revelation Is'above ' human knowledge I.it
ensures the correct recording of It. The
proofs of this one' , the origin of these sixty-
fir books ; God claims their Inspiration ; the
ni-'hora themselves claim to be inspired ; the
cTects of the book upon all who read , trust
pnd cbey It Is the best proof ,
's Inspiration plenary or verbal ? Were
he thought * or very words of scripture In
spired ? It Is orthodox enough to sny the
bible ls the word of God , without splitting
hairs as to modes of Inspiration. I believe
In verbal Inspiration of the original copies ,
because men think by words or like sym
bols. To give Paul the thoughts of his
epistle Implies giving the words , for Paul
thinks , receives truth and teaches only by
words , because some truths are above the
understanding of the Inspired writer * , such
as some phophccles must be verbal to be
correctly recorded ; because we plead the
promlxos of God and get aimvers to prayer ,
us by no other book. The scriptures claim
to be verbally Inspired , both as to thoughts
and words. God 'spaxe * ' to Adam , Noah ,
In words. God described the ark In words , ,
God promised to be wtli | Mores to guide his
wcrd' . In giving the law , the Decalogue ,
' 'God snake all thess word * . " The phrase
"ttiis saltli the Lord"'Is used over 700 tlmei
In the bible. David said : "The spirit of tbe
Lord spake by me , und his words no *
thought -was In my tonj-ul. , i. JjjTu ? "quple/1
" | wrltlenir flifie limes , nnd triumphed
ovJr temptation , t > 3 o"in ysli me God's word
IV.nl eayni "which thtngi we ( peak , not It
the "wordi whlMi man's wisdom teacnetn , bu
which the Holy Qhoit teacneth. " Attain
' 'When ye received the woriV of God , whlcl
ye h srd of us , ye received It not as Ihi
word ot men , but , s U Is In truth , the wort
ft Qed , which effectually * orkcth lu yet
that believe. " In one Instance even the let
ter * were Inspired , "He ealth not , and to
seeds , ai of many , but as of one , and to
thy seed , which Is Christ. " Here the Spirit
distinguishes the plural "seeds" from the
singular , "seed , " verbal , yea , literal Inspira
tion. Also John eays : "He that belleveth
not God hath made him a liar , because he
belleveth not the record that God gave of
Hli Son. " Lastly , the penalty for changing
the word of God proves Its verbal Inspiration.
"If any man add to this book , God will add
to him the plagues herein written ; " "If any
man shall take away from the words of the
book , God will take away his part from the
book of life. "
Some time ago a gentleman and his wife
decided to read the bible together. After
they had read some time , he said : "Wife , If
this book l ! true , we are wrong. " They
read on. Later he said : "Wife , If this book
Is true , we are lost. " They still read on.
Then he said to her : "Wife , If this book Is
true , we may be saved. " Yes , since the
bible Is , and Is true , It pronounces the most
awful doom upon the Impenitent , Yes , since
the bible Is , and Is true , it Is the most blessed
thing In the world , because of the Savior ,
Jesus Christ , which It offers to all for sal
vation.

AS A ntnNi : > .
rnlthfnl Always and Able to Sympathize
with Men In l.'very Condition ,
nev. F. Ellis , pastor of the West Omaha
Methodist Episcopal church , preached yester
day morning on the "Friendship of Christ. "
Said ho :
Man Is by nature n social bilng. He finds
his greatest pleasure In the company of his
friends. Isolate him from friends and so
ciety and life Is made almost unbearable.
Solomon was quite right In saying , "A man
that hath friends must shew himself
friendly. " There are some people who are
morose and crabbed In their manner , and
still they seem to think everybody ought to
bo pleasant nnd friendly with them. Hu
manity Is very much the same the world over.
If you Bnub a man he will In most cases re
sent It ; If you treat him kindly ho will
openly acknowledge nntl reciprocate It.
"We read : 'Greater love hath no man
than this , that a man lay down his life for his
friends. '
"We have all had brought to us touching
Incidents of llfo sacrificed to save life. A
life that goes out for another leaves to the
living a tender remembrance that can never
be forgotten. That Is why Jesus of Nazareth
can never be forgotten He gave his life for
others. For that reason Ho Is able to sym
pathize with humanity with a sympathy that
few knew anything about. There Is scarcely
nny position that we occupy but that Christ
knew something about It by an experimental
knowledge.
"Arc we In poverty ? He , though rich , yet
for our sakes- became poor. Ho took upon
himself the form of a servant that ho might
be a sympathizer and servant to all men.
Are wo weary with toll for our dally bread ?
Jesus tolled at his father's bench , yet we
never heard that He murmured because of
It. Are we oftentimes pressed down with
sorrow ? Jesus was a man of sorrow. The
sorrow and misery caused by sin made him
sad continually.
"If we find severe trials with friends al
around us , what must It be to those who have
no friends ? Passing along the street on a
stormy night I come to a man who Is sitting
on the pavement In utter despair and help
lessness. I exclaim , 'Why don't you go
home ? ' 'Sir , I have no homo. ' 'Then why
don't you go to some of your friends ? ' 'I
have no friends. ' No matter what a man's
life has been , such a condition Is sad am
pitiful. What Is life In such a condition'
and yet our Saviour's was very similar to it
'For the foxes have holes and the birds of the
air have nests , but the Son of Man hath noi
where to lay His head. ' No wonder tha
Jesus , knowing these things , leaves thesi
words " ( Just before His betrayal ) , 'Inasmuch
as ye have done. It unto one of the least o
these my brethren , ye have done It unto me.
Born to trouble , man needs a friend to help
him. Shall he seek this help from cold ra
tlonallsm , philosophy , pleasure , drink o
riches ? How many heap to themselve
trouble bydoing this very thing ? How fool
Ish to resist the help of n friend who can
help us If "wo will let Him. and Christ ha
promised help to all that call on Him.
"We enjoy walking In our parks when
everything Is beautiful , but when the cold
bleak winds of winter moan through the lifeless
loss branches wo prefer a more cozy plac
than the parks. This' may b ; oftenUme ,
said of our friends. When we are prosperous
dress well , live well , mnko money rapidly
our friends cluster around us , but let a wav
of cold adversity swtop over us and presto
where arc our friends then ? One thing w
then know they are conspicuously and sus
plciously absent wherever we are. Tru
friends that will stand by under all circum
stances may In most cases be counted o :
one hand. Socrates when building a sma
house was asked why ho did not make I
largrr. Ho replied : 'I shall be sufllclentl
accommodated If I may but see It filled wit
real friends. "
"Wo need Christ's friendship to sustai
us when our earthly friends pass * nway
Where are those companions of early youth
The horn ? has been broken Into ; our bes
friends have bid us adieu and gone wher
there Is no returning. Make Christ you
friend , your strength , your strong tower o
safety. Make Him your confidant , your part
ner In nil your affairs ; trust Him , prove Hit
and know for yourslf that He Is a frlen
that stlcketh closer than a brother. "

BEE CARRIERS AT CHURCH
Were Specially Invited Auditors Last Even
ing at Beth Eden Baptist.
RECEIVED IN FORM BY THE BOY'S BRIGADE
I'ustor Odcll Tnlkt to Them About Spread *
Infe the Good Netrx unit About the
Good Tiding ! of Great Joy
In the Go i > el.
The paper carriers of The Dee were ad
dressed by Ilev. D. D. Odell last evening In
the Deth-Eden Baptist church , Special ar
rangements were made for their entertain
ment and when they arrived at the church
they were met by companys A and B of the
United Boys' brigade , which were stationed
on either side of the walk leading Into the
church. They were escorted to their Beats
In the center of the church by the brigade
and were flanked on the right by company A
and on the left by company B. The red
sashes and regulation caps , together with
the guns of company A and the Tarn
O'Shanter caps and plaid uniforms of com
pany n , with their swords and soldierly
bearing , were highly appreciated by those In
attendance. An excellent musical program
was arranged for the occasion. Besides the
singing of the quartet , Mrs. L. T. Sunderland
sang with excellence two eolos , and Mr.
Kalph Sunderland , by special request , sang a
solo entitled "Tell It Again , " which was
well rendered and highly enjoyed.
Tha subject of the discourse was "Publish
ing of Good News , " and the text was "Be
hold , I bring you good tiding of great Joy. "
Mr. Odell said that the publishing business
Is as old as the human race , and as the
people advanced In civilization the publica
tion of good and bad news advanced with
them. Isaiah spoke of publishing when he
said : "How beautiful upon the mountains
are the feet of him that brings tidings of
good , that publlsheth peace. " In the days
of the kings of Israel there was a general
system of carrier boys who published the
decrees of kings. In ancient Greece and
Home trained carriers carried the news from
city to city , and when God wished to send
down the best news that the world ever
heard he selected nn angel to bear It.
He said that all the carriers of The Bee
could not be designated as angels , In the
sense of the text , but that most people would
consider them black angels who did not get
their paper In time. It Is more universally
dt sired to bear good news than bad news , ns
there Is an Intrinsic excellence In humin
nature which revolts against bad tidings.
The messenger who ran to Inform David
of the great victory avoided any allusion to
the death of Absolam In his report. He
said that God did not send the angel to tell
bad news , as the poor old world had been
rocked In the cradle of sorrow long enough
and It needed to be soothed and sustained In
the arms of love ; hence the good news.
Gospel means good news , and It was the
birth of the gospel that the angel proclaimed
Ttls gospel , ws are told by the angel , waste
to bo good news to all the people. The
Jewish people supposed that they were alone
favored of God , and did not realize that
tlTough them God was to bring a blessing to
all people.
He said that this good news was character
ized by simplicity ; a child could understand
It , and yet there was a depth of wisdom Ii
the glad tidings which the profoundcst ol
men could not fathom. Had the gospel been
abstruse and complicated It might have
pleased speculative minds , but would have
been lost to the multitudes , as the masses
of mankind are not profound thinkers , am1
glad tidings , In order to be of value to any
one , must bo simple and truthful.

at an early hour Inllhll room In the Brown

life.At
At 4:45 : yesterday morning as R. T. Watklns
and A. II. Patterson , icomposltors In The Bco
office , were returning- their homes from
work they were startled by some one scream
ing aa they were nbout to pass the Brown
block. At first the voice could not be located ,
but , upon going up stairs they succeeded In
locating the source. They went to room B ,
which is the doctor's olflce , and asked what
was the matter , but for some time they were
unable to understand what was said In reply ,
A stepladder wns secured and an effort made
to sco through the traiuoni , but the room
was dark and nothing could be distinguished.
A messenger was sent for on olllcer , and Offi
cer Jorgeneen was soon nt the door and was
able to distinguish what Dr. Lane said when
ho told him that his throat was cut. The door
was broken In and the doctor found lying on
the lounge with his throat cut nnd the floor
near by covered with his blood. Drw. Peabody -
body , Allison and Edmlston were summoned ,
and it was then learned besides the wounds in
the throat Lane was suffering from n dose of
strychnine. An Injection was given to coun
teract the effects of the poison , and as soon as
possible he was rernbved to the Clarkson hos
pital , where his wounds were fully dressed.
Dr. Lane was conscious- when found , and In
reply to a question asked him for his reasons
for committing the act he stated that he had
no valid reason other than that ho had been
drinking pretty hard during the past \veek
nd did not know what he was doing when he
made the attempt to take his life.
Before Lane wo.3 removed to the hospital he
oquestod that Attorney William Bcckinin be
notified In case he died. Beekman was seen
nd he stated that he know no reason why the
doctor should , attempt his life , and knew no
eason other than that of friendship why the
equest was made to notify him In case of
leath resulting. He said that ho had known
"iano for eight or nine years and never knew
f any thoublo that ho liaJi during that time.
Dr. Lane Is a graduate of a medical college
n Ireland , where he was born , and has re-
Ided In this city for about ten years. He Is
spoken highly of by the members of his pro-
'esslon. At a late hour last night the doctor's
condition was much ImproveJ , with the
chances quite favorable to his recovery. The
ihyalclans attending him stated that while the
dose of strychnine , which was about one
; raln , was a largo one , yet It was not suffi
cient to produce death In the case of a man
with a strong constitution like that of the
patient.

The guaranty clause which the city Inserts
In almost nil contracts fen paving is n valid
clause and the taxation Imposed for1 the
purpose of carrying It Into effect will be up
held , or at least that Is what Judge Duffle
announced In rendering his decision in the
Leavenworth street paving Injunction case.
The effect of the court's decision Is favorable
to the city and sustains not only the validity
of $30,000 to $30,000 worth of paving taxes
on Leavenworth street , but likewise legalizes
the thousands of dollars worth of taxes Im
posed for repairs to paving improvements in
other parts of the city.

UiNDER THE OLD TREES AGAIN
Pirst Oonrx-rt Sunday of the Season at
Hatisccm Park.
WAS THRONGED ALL THE AFTERNOON
With rrrih Green far Carpet nntl Canopy
Tliouinnil * I.Uton to the llnntl urnl

Grainier Ilnrmonlei ,
Despite the gray and lowering sky during
the greater portion of the afternoon , the
beautiful spring array that Hanscoin park
presented yesterday could not have failed to
please the tuste of the 'moat ' critical aesthete.
The bright living green that covered every
thing was a revelation to the people who were
drinking In the beautiful scene and remem
bered the dry and shrunken appearance of the
verdure during the latter part of last sum
mer. To walk about under the trees and
over the green carpet was a tonic to every
one and a remedy for those who are still
prating about the drouth of last year an-1 pre
dicting that a similar fate will overtake the
state during the coming year.
A thick carpet of the brightest green cov
ered almost every Inch of the park , In many
places standing In Its native growth un
touched by the mower. The gravelly walks
have been washed clean by the rains and
almost take away the temptation that the
green sward beside them presents. The
basins of water ore full and clear and Invit
ing. The flower beds are peopled with How
ery tprltcs arrayed In clean fresh colors ,
who nod to the people strolling by as If they
were as fully animated with the buoyant
and hopeful spirit that the park scene In
spires as the observers themselves. And
above all tower the great trees loaded with
the heavy green foliage of their new spring
dress. Old Sol hlmsell could not help taking
a p ep once In a while , and In the warmth of
his genial smile set everything , water and
color , to living and sparkling.
COLD SCARED NO ONE.
It was a cool afternoon , but for all that
people came out to hear the music , and
when they got out to the park spent most of
their time In admiring nature's dress , al
though they could not IHp listening to 'the
band , for It played In a way that harmonized
completely with the scene. And the people
were not afraid of the threatening sky , for
many of them came out to sport their new-
spring clothes and found that they them
selves were harmonizing pretty well with
nature. Scores of Omaha's pretty girls were
there arrayed In all Imaginable shades of
every one of the primary colors , h adgear and
all , and tried to outshine Mother Nature.
IJesIde them were as many scores of their
companions , rather plain In color , but finding
a place In forming a contrast. Taken all
together , as one walked down the hill Into
the heart of the park to take his place In the
picture , he must stop and exclaim , whether
conscious of It or not , on the beauty of the
scene.
It was the first band concert of the year ,
and consequently the plot around the stand
was crowded by youth who had no sweet
hearts with them and by the men and women
that were married nnd had therefore no more
Illusions. On the border were grouped the
buggies and carriages , many In number.
Further out parties df four or a half dozen
were seated on the grass , enjoying the youth-
time of the year and their lives , or , If no
longer young , Imagining that they were.
CUPID AND PHILOSOPHY.
And still further from the stand , in shel
tered nooks and screened from observation
as much as possible , or walking about , some
times hand In hand , were couples , and , per
haps , an occasional philosopher , who was
probably enjoying himself more than any
one else. Children , too , there seemed to
be myriads of them , were running and tumb
ling about , and getting so much enjoyment
out of the swings that the overworked con
trivances crenkril. And In and out through
the crowds whirred scores of wheels , and
some of the riders \\ero In bloomers , too.
Mingling In the conversation , and not at
nil Interfering , the strains of the band blew
through all the color. It was equally en
joyable whether one was close by or felt It
through the distance. The program was
rendered by the Kort Omaha bind , and com
prised selections from Sousa , Weber , Hosslnl ,
Thelre , Kllenberg. Suppp , Dlx and others.
Every one's tastes were suited , too , for there
was a grand medley of gospel hymns , a
melody from the old composers , Heethoven ,
Chopin , Haydn , Mendelssohn , Mozart , Uos-
slnl , Wagner , and , finally , twenty minutes of
the music one heard on the Midway.
