"Itl , there , keep out of that ! " yelled ono
of tlio nttaches of the union tlcpot lust oven-
Inn to n man who was catching a ride on
the Union 1'aclflc overland train as It wao
pulling out of .lie station.
Tlio man was J. S. DoiUworth. He wan
seen darting beneath oneof the coaches ,
evidently In an attempt to net astrldo ono
of the car trucks. The warning was un
heeded. and an Instant later Dodsworth's
mangled body was being dragged over the
tie * at a rapid rate of speed. The remains.
for ho was almost Instantly killed , were car
ried by a brake beam for nearly Ilfty feet
and were then deposited In the tnlddlo of
the trark. Dan Shandy , n Union 1'aclflc
brakemr.n , and two other bystanders. Sam
Martin and Joe Ilrown , hurried to the aid of
Dnclsworth. hut found him beyond any
tarthly aid. Thi left arm a short distance
above the wrist was shattered until thn
bones protruded , and the face of the unfortu
nate man was battered Into n pulp.
Coroner Hurkot was summoned and re
moved the body to the inorRUC. From let
ters found upon It Information was Klcancd
that Podsworth was formerly employed IIB a
machinist at the Union 1'aclflc shops. Ho
possessed a traveling eard of the Interna
tional Association of Machinists , local lodge
No. 31. but the card had expired several
months ago on account of non-payment of
duos. Another card Indicated that Rods-
worth had at one time been employed at
Larson & Oo.'s bolt house at Lake Qulnnc-
baiiK. near Tekamah , and other letters
fihowcd that he had been out of employment
for some time. An eplstlo bearing the date
of December 24 , 1S93 , was from Ills father ,
who signed the name of John Dodsworth
end mentioned that he was a paymaster on
rome eastern road , probably In the state of
Maine. The letter was headed Farnham. but
gave no state , as Iho locality In which It
had hern written. Dodsworth was evidently
the eon of excellent parents , although at
tlio time of his death wan himself In abject
poverty. Not a cent was found In his pocketbook -
book , and his clothes , though clean , bore
n threadl'nrn appeaiance. From a short
r.ote signed by one "Joslo" It would appear
that not a little of his misfortune was < luo
to Ititimpcrancc , and that on this account
ho had been fired from his last boarding
housn.
Dodsworth nppllcd at the police station
Saturday night for n lodging and was ac
commodated. Ills name also appears on the
police records of last Thursday for being
drunk and lying on the walk. It Is not
known whether Dodsworth had any relatives )
living In this city or not. An Imiucst will
bo hold by Coroner Ilurkct this morning at
10 o'clock. It was thought possible by ono
of the \\ltncrscs of thn accident that I > ods-
woi-th had deliberately taken his life. This
mippoeltlon. however , la disproved by the
fact that lilt body did not fall n crews the
track , an It would have done had he con
templated sell destruction.
HKSIDKD IN OMAHA BIGHT YKARS.
Coroner IJurkct learned late last night
that Dodsworth had a daughter 15 years of
age , named Mabel , who lives with airs.
Samuel \Vllninnt , an aunt , at 1109 North
Twentieth street. From the daughter and
also from Mr. Wllmont It was ascertained
that Dodauorth was a man of very Intem
perate liabllH. He had been a resident of
Omaha for eight , years , working part of the
time as a machinist. Two years ago his
wife dropped dead and ( his appeared to
weigh heavily upon Dodswofth'e mind. He
Imd drank heavily ever since and his
daughters and relatives were obliged at
let\gtlt to abandon him to his cups. Anther
daughter was married a few years ngo and
Ib now living In Memphis , Tenn. She has
Uccn telegraphed of her father's death.
Speaking of the manner of Dodsworth's
death , Mr. Wllmont thought It possible that
tlio man had become desperate and had
thrown himself tinder the cars. He thought
It more probable , however , that his death
was duo to drunkenness. That while In
toxicated be had for Rome reason best
known to hlmeclf attempted to catch a ride
and had been knocked over by the brake
beam. The father of the deceased Is a
prominent railroad man living at Farnham ,
1'rovlneo of Quebec , Canada. He has been
telegraphed of the death of his son.
AMUSEMENTS ,
Wfclker Whltealdo appeared at the Crelgh-
ton last nlKht , opening A half week's en
Bailment and preluding a play by himself
and Paul Kcster based upon the life and
crime of Rugone Aram , and bearing the
name of that unfortunate man.
It Is always a pleasure to welcome Mr.
WhllcKldo to Omaha. The loftiness of bis
artistic purpose and , the sincerity of his
ondeavom would condone more ttcrlaus faults
than thoMchlch arc apparent In his work ,
and such measure of success as ho enjoys la
fully deserved. Ho Is allowing a very com
mendable disposition lo free himself In some
degree from the thralldom of classical trag
edy , and an lilt ) mannerisms are less un-
plcaEantly noticeable in the dialogue and
action of modern drama than In the trc-
mcndoua lines and heavy business of the
Shakespearean roles to which he has been
chlelly adlcted heretofore , such presentations
as that of "Hugeno Aram" would bo admlra-
bla for that reapon nlono If there were noth
ing elseto commend them. Hut the play ,
embodying the familiar somber story , Is well
constructed , with two , if not thrci > , strong
climaxes and abundance of action ; it la
played by the best company which ever sup
ported Mr. Whltesldo ; and It gives that art
ist an opportunity for some of the best and
most convincing work he has ever done.
The entertainment Is not of a kind calcu
lated to attract a Sunday audience. Mr.
Whltesldo's habit Is not to play on the- first
day of the week. Ho nays ho will never
do It again after last night , for the attend-
nnen was not largo enough to placate his
angry conscience. This , however. Is nut the
only particular In which ho will depart fiom
Ills usual custom during his stay In Omaha ,
for bo will wsiiy the part of lago for tlio
first time next Wednesday night , playing
to the Othello of Mr. Chirleg I ) . Herman.
This Is an honor which ahould bo appreciated
and much Interest nlll doubtless be mani
fested In the event , Mr. Whltesldo' Is ex
ceptionally well fitted In many ways to portray
tray the character of the Venetian ancient ,
ami Mr. Herman should make a strong
Othello.
In "Kugono Aram , " as presented last
night , tha accno which will stay longest In
the memory Is probably that liown at the
eloso of the second act , where Houseman
lies aslocp In Aram's room ( turning up , by
the way , a very modern pair of boot solos
to Iho audience ) , and the pale , fragile
scholar U about to kill his rufllauly pew
cntor. but Is disturbed In his design by the
complaining of a frightened bird outside
in the btorm , ulilch he takes In and protects.
This incident IB verj cleverly brought In a
an Indication of Aram's nature , and helps
to build up n very efft-ctlvo climax.
Mr. Whltesldc'a best work , however , Is
decidedly shown In the long recitation of
the story of the crime In the last act. It
Is an admirable piece of declamation de
livered with dignity , moderation and genu
ine feeling , Aram's momentary physical
collapse at the end U also thoroughly well
Indicated.
Mr. Herman's Houseman Is the effective
representation ono li always justified lu
expecting from thla nterlliig player. MUs
Luclu Moore , uho It plearanMy rcmrm-
bored us having appeared hero last season
with Frederick Warde , does what can bo
donu with a role which glvw her small op
portunity. John M. Sturgeon and J. 1 ; .
tiaphorc have been seen and liked In. con
nection with former vlilts of Mr. While-
sdf ! > .
"Kugcne Aram" will be repeated on Tues
day night. Tonight "Tho Merchant of
Venice" will be Hie bill , and Mr. Whlteslde ,
jrboio SuylocU bos been seen hers before ,
will again represent that portontou * Jew ,
Mr. Herman playing Dasaanlo and Mls
Moore Portia , * ' "
Steve Ilrodle brought his 'naloon ' And his
Drooklyn hrldgo and his philanthropy and
hid Howery piny back to Ilo'yd'B last night ,
where the combination seemed to please ft
fair slzcil audience , which filled the gal-
Icrlon and scattered Itself quite plentifully
over the pnnjuet. The- performance Is not
emcntlally different from that of last sea
son ; the company Is In many respects the
same ) and ns for Ilrodle , nothing Is fur
ther from his mind , apparently , than any
shadow of change. He Is too thoroughly
satisfied wllh himself , just an he Is , to cher
ish the Hllghtest wish ever to be dif
ferent. Ho still makes no attempt to act ,
and Is still fortunate In not trying. Al
together there have been and are likely to
bo again far worse "shows" In Omaha than
"On the Ilowcry. " It may Tic seen at Iloyd's
again1 tonight.
The Crelghton comes nut during the
Whlteslde engagement with a brand new
theater program , bearing the name of Mr.
Cal Martin an promoter , and presenting

play called "At Gay Coney Island. " are * .ho
composem of fifty songa which have enjoyed
more or less popularity. Ilcports coming of
Its engagements In the cast declare It the
hit of the season and one of the mst suc
cessful engagements of the year Is antici
pated for It at Iloyd's for four nights , open
ing Sunday matinee , November 15.
Two nights of drama of a high romantic
order will bo Inaugurated at the Crclghton

markable romantic story by Anthony Hope.
It Is one that appeals aliketo every class
of theater-goers have any knowledge of
this tale of romance , honor , love and duty.
Mr. Frohman has mounted the play In a
lavish manner and selected a cast with un
usual care from his original Lyceum com
pany.

CHICAGO. Nov. 8. The details of the
formation of a gigantic vaudeville syndicate
wcro made public tonight. Robert Illcl.
manager of the Schiller theater In this city ,
who ban Just returned from the eas where
ho has been engaged In the formation of the
syndicate , said to an Associated press repre
sentative tonight : "While. In the cast I
accomplished some most Important results.
At PlttBburg I met nnd drew up articles of
agreement with Mr. Davis , who operates a
number of theaters lu and about the city ,
for a syndicate to control and operate vau
deville houses In the cities of Baltimore.
St. Louis and ono other large city which
I am not yet at liberty to niako public. Anew
now amusement company was formed nnd
a situ for a theater In St. Louis was BO-
curcd , which will cost not less than $ ICO-
000. The theater In Baltimore is already
built and will bo announced as soon as cer
tain papers arc returned signed. I have a
similar understanding to pool Intcmsts In
Gustav Walter's theaters at San Francisco
and Los Angeles as far as bookings are con
cerned with the affiliations wo already have
with the Keith houses In New York. Phil
adelphia and Boston , I'lttsburg , Baltimore ,
St. Louis , Chicago , San , Francisco and Los
Angeles will give us a circuit that will en
able us cither to bring our own attractions
direct from Huropc or compel Now York
managers to book their stars with us. The
syndicate has secured the best available
talent at liberty In New York for the entire
circuit and has engaged the services of Kn-
ropcan agents In London , Paris and Berlin
to look out for novelties , The offices of the

CENTEHVILLB , S. D. , Nov. 8. ( Special. )
The ofllccra and a few of the citizens of
this place have been engaged for the last
ten days In unraveling a mystery In con
nection with a robbery that occurred here
nearly two months ago , and have succeeded
In fastening the guilt upon the right parties.
The first clue that could bo relied upon was
the finding of a portion of the stolen goods
at Yankton In the possession ot a IG-year-
old boy named Mason. Other boys of about
his ago who had associated with him and
who bad been suspected of having some
hand In the matter were arrested. Upon
the trial , at which Alonzo 'Mason , Cler-
cnco Fathcrlos , Louis Column and Clay
Scott were defendants. Mason and Father-
loa were convicted and will bo sent to the
reform school of the state. Colman and
Scott were liberated , the former because
there was an Insufllclcncy of evidence and
the latter because he left the other boys
before the stolen goods were removed from
the building and there was no evidence that
ho ever went any further than to enter
the building at the request of the other
boys ,

REJUVENATING THE RACE
Omaha Physician Says Ho lias Solved the
Mystery of Perpetual Yonth.
OLD MEN SMALL BE MADE BOYS AGAIN
Halt Will I.enp for Joy , ( InIlllnil S
I InDonf Hi-nr it nil tlio Anoluiit
Hello Will IlloN-omi In Un

It may bo that In a comparatively short
time Omaha will jump Into eternal fame
as the nurse of the discoverer of the foun
tain of youth. If It should be , Omaha will
be the best advertised city that ever was ,
Is now or ever shall he , because of all
things a mortal hero below hangs on to It
Is life. The city would no longer bo the
Gate City , but the City of Ilejuvenatlon and
of Perpetual Youth and the boom days would
no longer bo In It.
The discoverer , or rather , the man who
Is on the verge of being tbo discoverer * of
the secret. Is a physician , and , like other
geniuses , Is n very modest man. Ho shuns
publicity as much as the rural visitor who
tackles the low side for the first time and
gets touched for his wad. Ho has given
an Inkling of his experiments to but a very
few friends , and now that the matter baa
attained partial publicity at least he re
quests that his name be not mentioned un
til bis theory becomes a fact. An overenthusiastic -
enthusiastic medical friends gave the snap
awuy.
The primary beauty of the discovery Is
that the spring of youth Is not stationary
In this city , or anywhere In this vicinity.
Thus It would bo folly for tbo good people
of this city to drink up the water of sulphur
springs or any other of the pools In the
neighborhood of Omaha , because nil they
would gain would be a bad taste In the
mouth. The fact of the matter Is that
everybody In the world , whether he Is In
this center of the universe or the FIJI Islands
or anywhere , has the perennial spring of
rejuvenation right by bis side. It's next to
him. and the doctor's scheme Is simply In
tended to put him next to It.
The discovery was made from the mate
rials that histology and physiology offer.
Followers of both sciences have no doubt
that If new blood Is cnfiibcd Into an old
wornout body , that old body will become ns
chipper ns a chipmunk. That Is the whole
proposition , and the Omaha physician sim
ply had more brains than anybody else when
ho figured out the simple solution. Evi
dently the only solution Is to put new blood
Into the old body. That Is what the doctor
has done.
done.MADE
MADE A NEW DOO OP HIM.
His experiments have been made upon
doss. Ho chose one that was 1C years old ,
with sUnals of distress sticking out on Its
sides , blind In one eye , deaf In both earn ,
with drooping tall , lame legs , with very few
teeth and suffering with an aggravated case
of dyspepsia. It was the most senile and
sickly dog that he could find In the seven
counties Immediately adjoining this. Ike ,
the tramp dog of the city , and Nellie at the
police station were young creatures beside
It. Then the doctor picked out a youthful ,
frolicsome puppy , full of vigor and with
perfect dog faculties.
With these two ho proceed to work out
his theory. He carefully grafted their front
legs together and dressed them antiseptic-
ally. In a short time the wounds healed
completely. Great care was taken of them ,
or of It , whatever the combination Is now ,
for some days The results were startling.
The old cur was rejuvenated and the foun
tain of perpetual youth was discovered.
The old dog retains still his blind eye , bis
deaf ears and his few teeth , but ho Is ready
to tackle n square meal at any hour of the
day without fearing any unpleasantness In ,
his stomach. His bark Is llko that of a
young thing and his tall Is an example of
perpetual motion. He la ready to frolic
about. The young puppy Is as young 03
ever , although there Is more scdatcness
about his movements than 'before , because
some of the matured blood of the old dog
hafl mixed with his and has toned down his
wild proclivities. Therefore , hosiers giving
perpetual youth , this new discovery la likely
to bo a sure cure of the "cowing of wild
cats. "
REGAINING SECOND CHILDHOOD.
Thus the discovery Is an unqualified suc
cess as far as It goes , but the physician
wants It to go further. He Intends to wait
developments In order to sec If the old dog's
eyes may not become good , his cars become
perfect and If ho will not grow some more
teeth. Then he proposes to cut the two
dogs apart again. Ho firmly believes that
the old dog will retain his youth and after
the usual period will reach middle-age and
again grow old. Then the old animal can be
made young again by the same process , and
so on ad Intlnltum until the body will not
hold together any more. Hy that time the
physician expects to discover some means
by which to reproduce a body.
Such Is the theory of the "fountain of
perpetual youth. " now almost a fact. It
will give the doctor and Omaha a niche In
the scientific world. It will do more. Of
course It Is hound to drive out ono busi
ness , that of the undertakers , but In place
of that It will Inaugurate a new profes
sion and In addition will advertise Omaha
from ono end of the world to the other.
"It will bo a great thing from a business
standpoint , " enthusiastically says the doc
tor. "Wo can have the center , the head
offices , of a system of rejuvenation factories
In this city. We will , of course , spread out
In all directions. Everybody will want to
bo rejuvenated. Subfactorlcs will be estab
lished In all countries , where wo will re-
juvcnato at so much per rejuvenation. All
these factories will bo under the direc
tion of the head establishment hero In
Omaha.
"Now look at the new avenue of em
ployment opened up. Wo will hire at good
prices young , perfect men and women out
of the army of unemployed , to bo grafted
upon old bodies , which heretofore have been
considered only fit for worms to feed upon.
Wo will user them over and over again and
they will hold a life tenure , which will
beat a government Job hollow , for when
they grow older wo can rejuvenate them.
All wo demand will be good behavior.
"I do not think wo will have any diffi
culty In obtaining employes , " the doctor
said In answer to a question. "At present
you see many beautiful young girls mar
rying old men with titles or money. Many
stalwart and physically perfect young men
marry old women for their wealth. Wo
simply Intend to direct this disposition Into
a now channel by offering good wages. I
do not think wo will find any trouble In
that regard. " _

Syrup , should ho kept In every home.

It docs not look now as If anything would

teenth street Is progressing rapidly , and
County Surveyor King says that work will
continue just as long as the weather will
permit. If property owners would take some
action now N street could bo graded thla
winter and bo ready to open by spring. The
suggestion was made some time ago by own
ers of real estate In the vicinity of N street
that the taxpayers at largo ought to pay for
the work of opening the street , as nearly
every business house In the city would bo
benefited by stich opening. These same prop
erty owners say that they are taxed enough
now without being mode to pay something
llko $1 n foot front for grading that will
not benefit them as much as It will the mer
chants. Merchants nnd others think that
the proposition to tax the city at largo for
the work Is unfair , and unless an under
standing can to reached the chances of
opening the street are extremely slim
Every ono In business hero admits that a

Another hitch has occurred In the funding
bond deal. This time It is a technicality
and will most likely bo straightened cut
without the city being compelled to have
the bonds printed over again. The. pur
chasers objected to one or two words In the
body of the bond In reference- attached
coupons. Treasurer Uroadwcll said yester
day that ho had explained matters to At
torney VanDusen , who represents the pur
chasers , and ho Is of the opinion that the
differences can be satisfactorily adjusted
without any additional expense to the city.
City officials have been working on this
$40,500 Issue of refunding bonds for nearly
three months , but It Is thought that all
troubles are over now.

Mat Garner , arrested Friday night , islands
a good chance of going to the penitentiary
unless the police arc badly mistaken. The
police are satisfied that Garner Is the man
who stole $30 from N. C. Ford some tlmo
ago. and they also assert that bo stele a
gold watch from Krlttenbrlnk , the brick
yard man. More than this. Garner had In
his possession when arrested a bicycle which
had been stolen a short tlmo ago from Otto
Drown. In all the police think that at least
fifteen larcenies committed In this city can
bo traced to the prisoner. It Is expected
that Garner will have a preliminary hearing
In pollco court today.

W. 11. Vansant , chairman of the charity
committee of the city council , says that BO
far thla winter ho has received very few ap
plications for aid , and he Is of the opinion
that less people are out of work here now
than a year ago. Only three applications
for aid wcro received during the entire week ,
and In comparison with other years this Is
remarkable. H Is understood that Mayor
Ensor will reorganize the Hoard of Charities
and the good work done last winter will
ha continued , provided It Is found neccisary.

Hov. Leslie P. Potter , formerly of Mexico
Mo. , preached his llrst ncrmnu I.K rector o
the St. Matthias Protestant Episcopal churcl
In this city yesterday morning. He Is
rather young man , of good appearance am
pleasing address. He read his sermon
which showed raroful preparation , but wa
not closely tied to his manuscript. He ha
a good voice and hlu delivery Ic marke
with ronsldiTublo earnestness.
After the reading of St. John's nurratlot
of the healing of the blind man by Chris
by Hev. Potter , Hlshop Worthlngton mad
a short address , welcoming the new recto
nnd asking for him the hearty co-operatlot
of the church and congregation. In part tit
bishop said : "Everyone hero Is famllla
with the history of this parish. You ar
aware of thn efforts of the diocese for manj
yearn to plant a church In thU < portion o
the city. It was felt that In this locality
were gathered special Interests that dc
mandeil the building of a church. Hero I
Is many of our faithful churchmen live , am
here we have an educational Institution tha
needs the Influence of a church. Hut today
I am to speak for the future of the parish
I would appeal to you for the extension o
God's kingdom In this part of our city. Mj
tcmlerest feelings are for this holy place
and I pray you not to bo wanting In loyalty
In devotion or In offerings as God ha
blesaed them to you. I would pray for you
hearty support of my young brother , \\h
comei auicng you for the first tlmo today
Ho deserves your sympathy , your confident'
and your hearty co-opcrallon. He must no
feel that he- stands alone. He must hav
the affection and the loyal support of over }
churchman In this part of the city. Thl
Is the only church cdlllcc In the city that 1
free from debt , and It Is our only duty t
earnestly and prayerfully support our ne\
brother and to profit by his tcachlngii. "
HUSINESS AHSOHHS TOO MUCH TIME
Hcv. Mr. Pottur selected his text fron
Mark vlt , 33-35 , and based his sermon 01
the account there given of Christ's mlracl
performed upon the man who was deaf am
who had an Impediment In his speech. It
his opening remarks the preacher said tha
every miracle should be regarded as u par
able , and that the two could not bo gep
aratcd. Continuing , he said : "As wo lee !
out Into the world we bear the hum of com
merce. The busy scones that mark the clos
Ing years of the present century are nttcndei
ulth their temptations , for with them ha
come the crowding together of the masse
In our great citloa. All absorbed In till
complicated piece of mechanism , called bus !
ness , which never ceases In Its movement
many have come to believe that they hav
no time to hoar anything else than the hun
of KB motion. They have no tlmo lo opei
their ears In order that they may hoar th
holy gospel. Christ calls us aside from till
whirl In order that we may know the beauty
of His gospel. With the now century wll
como greater business activity and now mar
vela In the mechanical world. Hut It doe
not seem to promise any greater amount o
peace nnd quiet for our spiritual devotion
The differences of opinion now existing wll
then either be magnified or modified.
"When a parish Is too busily engaged In
Its own organization to give lime for hull
vl < lual prayer and tle\otlon , or when n rec
tor Is so occupied In the writing of sermon : )
that he cannot attend to Iho xpirUual needs
of bin parishioners , then that parish Is no
what Jhe Good'Shepherd would have It. Fo
our guidance ( t Is well to look back to the
aposlojlc experiences of Iho church , but we
should always remember that It Is In the
present that we are to live and work. The
church gains spiritual force by turning osldt
from the multitude for spiritual worship
In the quiet and peace of Eastertide we ma >
hear God's voice most clearly and under
stand Ills utleranccs most distinctly. Hu
wo should make an examination of ourselves
dally. God has the first demand on our
time , not only In the seasons especially
sot aside to the churcl ) , but at all times. I
Is aside from the multitude that you and :
In this parish are to do the work God has
assigned us , which Is to build up nm
strengthen Ills church In this community. '
A reception will bo tendered > fr. and Mrs
Potter In the parish rooms of the church 01
Wednesday evening between the hours of S
and 10. At this time tbo members of the
church and the congregation and friends wll

In response to an Invitation extended b >
Hov. J. M. Wilson of the Castcllar Street
Presbyterian church the edifice was fllleil
to the doors last night with members of
Nebraska lodge No. 1 of the Masonic order.
In pursuance to the plan of Dr. Wilson to
have the Masons attend It's ' services Granil
Master John 1) . Howe Issued a circular which
requested the members of the society to
meet at Masonlcliall. The Insignia of the
order was hero donned and the lodge then
marched to the church In a body. The cosy
llttlo sanctuary was handsomely decorated
with Dowers , potted plants being placed
around the pulpit and the Masonic symbols
worked out In variegated colors were placed
above It. After a special musical program
Dr. Wilson thanked the members of the or
der for JicInK present In such largu numbers
and then delivered a short address.
His text was taken from the first chapter
of the Epistle to the Hebrews. "According
to the scriptures , " said the speaker , "Aaron
was the originator of the first priesthood
which employed symbols and rites to dis
tinguish their calling from the pursuits of
the masses. It was the first case in hlstor >
where the society took form. From It had
sprung the many hene\olent and secret or
ders down to the present time. The priests
of ancient days had formed clans with great
and good men at their heads. It was the
custom of the societies today to do the same
anil with trusty men at their heads untold
good was accomplished , benevolent and oth
erwise. In following out tlio laws laid down
by the various orders , the members of each
must remember there was one mediator ;
ono who madu the many laws a common law ,
and that was thn law of mankind. The great
nedlator was Jostm Christ. Christ was the
ilgh ruler of all societies and all orders.
It must he to Him that the members of the
; rrat order , the order of mankind , must
ook for Instruction. He was tlio mediator
of the covenant of God , the high priest of all
profession ! ! . "
The speaker enjoined all those In his hear-
iiu' to beware of God's presence at all times.
The work of the societies and of Christ
ahould go along hand In hand. The Inter
est taken In the secret order cdiould not
landlcap the interest taken In sacrud mil-
ccts. but they should work to the same end ,
ho higher exaltation of the human soul
as well u comforts of the body. "
Dr. Wilson said he knew that vast goml
md been accomplished by the order to which
: hose present belonged. It had over been
dentlflod with the progress nt civilization
and waa always foremost In bc towlng fa
vors upon Its membera. Ono of tin- main
reasons It had advanced so rapidly was the
'act ' that Its members had perforce to bo
good Christians In order to enjoy the high
est honors It conferred. Truth , honor , In-
egrlty and business principles were noccu-
nary to the advancement of a Mason , and
heso were the atlrlhutrs of a Christian.
Dr. Wilson concluded his sermon by draw-
ng Bomo vivid word pictures from the Hook
of Itcvelatlons and applying the truths con-
alncd lu many of the patmagca ho quoted to
.ho dally Ufa of the Mason.

They can be formed In any school or Sun
day school In ten minutes. It costs nothing
to form them and cnly as much , or as llttlo
tlmo as Is found profitable need be given to
them.
It Is proposed to educate the American
people for the purposeof stopping every
form of cruelty by enlisting the teachers to
carry humane Institutions Into all American
public and private schools ; by enlisting the
educational , religious , and secular press to
help form a public sentiment which will
tend to check cruelty of every kind ; by
enlisting the Protestant and Homaii Catholic
clergy of the country In efforts to unlto
religious and humane education In all their
churches and Sunday schools.

BELLEVUE , Neb. , Nov. 8. ( Special. )
The account of the old flag owned by I. W.
Miner , which appeared In last Sunday's
Uec , has call oil attention to another old
Hag owned by one of our citizens , Charles
linker , a veteran of the latc > war , which Is
oi especial Interest to old soldiers. Mr.
Haker's flag was made by bis wife In the
spring of IbGl , Is about flvo feet long and
llko Mr. Miner's Hag has but thirty-four
-tars. At the tlmo of the war Mr. Hakcr'a
iiomo was In Schuylcr county. Missouri , and
In April. 1SC1 , ho enlisted In the union cause ,
lolnlng the Second Missouri cavalry as scout.
In the troubled times that followed , when
returning from his dangerous trips , the
&lght of this Hag flying over his homo
cheered him with the message that all was
well , or by Its absence warned him of dan
ger. Since the war the Hag , worn and t.it-
; oied , has graced many a peace celebration ,
has waved over many a comrade's grave ,
and Is , In Its owner's eyes , a priceless relic.
