Tlev. A. Douglas Carlllo of New Albany
Ind. , occupied the pulpit of the First Presby
tcrlan church t both services yesterday. H
preached to two large congregations , the on
which hcanl him In the morning being cs
pcclally numerous. At the morning servlc
the mtmlc by the regular iiiiartel choir wa
unusually good , a contralto solo by MlN
Clara Palmer being the feature of th
imisiciil program.
The text of the morning sermon was take
from Uio last chapter of the aecond crjlst !
by Peter , VUMP xvlll : "But grow In the grac
end the knowledge of our l ord Jesus Christ.
In commenting 011 the text the preacher call !
"Graco Is theologically defined as God's lov
Ing favor. In this Instance Peter makes 1
a definite matter by the uic of the dcfinlt
article , speaking of 'the grace and th
know ledge. ' Let us consider the uses o
grace. In the first place growth In the grac
until wo attain as near as possible to th
perfect stature \ necessary.
"Tho ( iiimtkd r.t once suggested by th
text Is. Are wo growing at the normal rate
Are we better Ulan our fathers were ? Hav
wo advance ! lai Chrlstllkeness since the rel
ortnatlon or slnco the apostolic dajs ? A
growth Is either exogenous or endogenous
The exogcnouH growth lei the grace and th
knowledge of Jesus Christ Is the church'
gathering from without. It Is a growth I
bulk It Is a growth whereby wo tend t
conform the world io ourselvea. The undo
genous giotttli Is the growth of the Indl
vidual. The church depends upon the per
fcctlun of the Individual , and so is the growl
of tlio chuu'.i ( Uvendem upon the tiiibulldln
of the kingdom of Uoil within ourselves , I
Is the unbuilding of the lemple of God , whos
temple we are This growth Is losai conspic
uous than the forme" manner of growth o
the church In tha world today , but the l < ndt
vidual growth Is Just as lirportant The ex
ogi'iioua growth of the church Is known am
con-cded all the world o\cr , and Its Inlluenc
on the world Is second to none. But , whi
I like to look upon the work or the churcl
cci t'.io exterior , while I like to look upor
gicat columns of figures showing the work o
the church inon the world without , I reallz
t"iat our works amount to absolutely nothln
tave Insofar as they are the r-itural and th
lnc\liable outer workings of pure an
rlghtoauH hearts.
HOW TO JUDGE GROWTH.
"What standard shall wo ute to dctcrmln
\vhcther or not we are growing ? The para
bio of the tares and the wheat that Christ ha
Klven us affords us a good answer to this
( There we fcco the tears and the wheat grow
Ing sldo by aide , but growing more and mor
unlike dny by day. The church Is her
represented by the wheat and the world bj
the tans , and fiom this parable wo are tc
know that In our dally life the church am
the world must glow udo by bide but alwayt
tuither and further apart. How can tneic
bo a change In the character without n
change In the life ? We sometimes say tha
people llvo a lie , but they don't. The lift
represents the character , and the one )
thown by the other.
"It Is n startling thing to say , but I believe
It to bo absolutely true that It Is a horde
task that Christians have to perform toda >
than It was for any of the martjrs of eli
when they were called upon ( o die for Christ
It Is not ho very hard to dlu-for Christ ,
have no doubt but that there are more thai
100 men and women hero who would will
Ingly die for Christ If called upon to do t > o
But the hard thing Is to ll\e for Chrht , en
during all things for Ills pake , eonslstcntlj
living with God hero la , the wcrld day by
day."Tho
"Tho text commands us to grow in the
knowledge as well as In the grace of Jeans
Chrht There are two things necessary Ii
our Chr'nthn life ; the splilt of God In oui
licnrts and the knowledge and truth of God
We must pohseas both of thcbo qualifications
Drgmi and doctrine me framed to meet er
ror. They are the otitwotks , the ramparts
of the chinch. They helped to firm a sti.nd
nrd fur UR to llvo by. But by knowledge am
tiuth In God we do not mom tne irutli In the
bible or In the crc d , but the truth in our
hcaits and In our heads. To bo holier \\e
must be wlner. We tr-o to kno.v no trutl
that wo do not live. Trii h la great lift
Kiting principle to ho iiaoil , not to be laid
away in the pockethooks.
KNOW FOR YOURSELF.
"Growth In knowlcdio HKc growth In
Kraco Is an Individual matter.'o must
know for ourscl\es. Non ? can know for us
It would be just as gro.tt follj to Imaglnt
that wo could go to heaven on another's fa tli
OK to think that anjone else could k.iow foi
us. I recall the case of a > oung mar. who
was being examined for the Prcsbytuilan
ministry. Ho was plainly excited nn.l when
the examining board naked him what ho be
lieved ho could not tell them. I doubt If ho
could have told them hla namo. The iui\ | -
tlcn , 'What do you bellevo1' " was repeateJ
to him i-everal times , each tlmo more seri
ously , and dually ho throw up his hands
nnd exclaimed 'I believe what the Prebby-
lorlan church bollevcB ' This Is funny , but
It brlnga us face to face with n great truth
There are thousands of poisons Just llko that
joiing man In our denomination today. There
may bo In ether denominations also , out 1
have no right to speak for any but the
I'resbyterhn church. There are thoinauds
who If asked what they b'-l'ov ' d would Lo
compelled to reply that they believed Just
what the Presbyterian church liollrvud. But
their cases nro c-vi'ii more sad than that of
the young man before the examining boaid.
Ho was not parsed by Iho examining board ,
nnd none who can glvo no bettor answer will
bo passed before the throne of God on the
Eicat day of final Judgment. "
In the evening Rev. Dr. Carlllo spoke to a
Koo.l sized congregation on the "Right Ute

Homo Missions , furnished the theme of the
discourse ut the First Congregational church
jestcrday morning and the usual service
was supplemented by a spiral appeal to the
congregation to contribute towards the sup
port of thu work of the American Missionary
association The tcrmon was delivered by
Rev J. E. Roy of Chicago , district scc-etary
of the uBaoclatlon , who spoke from the text ,
"And Jesus began to say , In this day Is the
scripture fulfilled In your eyes" Ho con-
Udi'it'd the work of the association , which
lie icprcsentcd as a direct fulfillment of
Iho scilpturo prophecies and us an Important
factor In thu pi ogress of civilization and

The speaker declared that the Christendom
of todiy was merely the spirit of the Saviour
working out In the sociology of tie world
as well ns In that of nations and communi
ties. An Illustration was found In the
Sandwich Islands , VNhoro the first mission

The speaker then < llitcu 8C < l the work c
the American Missionary nnsochtlon and th
three classes of people whom It was dc
signed * to reach. Ho spoke first of the ivor
among the Indians of the Dakotas , Montjn
and the 1'URct Sound region and told of th
transformation that Ind been effected I
these tribes toy the missionaries of the ns
eoclntlon Mo related a number of anecdote
to show how much had bocn accomplish '
In this direction and especially emphasize
the manner In which the Indians mad
oicrlflces In order to contribute to the fur
tbcrance of the work amons their people.
Mr. Hey also spoke briefly of what hai
been accomplished among the Chinese of th
I'-acldc coast and rcferrel particularly to th
fact that hundreds of these people were belni
Christianized and sent back to China ti
work among their people.
Hut Itwas among the freedmcn of th <
south that the greatest work of the nsso
elation had been accomplished. The or
ganlzntlnn had aimed not only to arouse < li
nntl-slaery sentiment , but to effect th
moral reconstruction of the freedmcn afte
their liberty had been secured. It had fol
lowed the union armies with schools am
teachers ami from thit day to this It hai
been enpnged In the work of educating am
Christianizing the negro. The percentage o
Illiteracy among the negroes had been re
duced from 100 to 51 per cent and 25,00i
negroes had been prepared to engage In tin
work of educating their black brethren am
sisters There \\cro 700,000 pupils In thi
various schools and colleges , Ich the asso
elation had built tip and maintained In tin
south , but much remained to be done.

The popularity of the revival meetings be
Ing conducted In this city by Mo evangelist
llev. Merlon Smith of Chicago , was well at
tested In the large audience yesterday morn
Ing at the delivery of hla Berir.on In the Kirs
United Presbyterian church , where he tool
aa 1,1s topic , "Kindness. "
"A moral man , " said Uov. Smith , "pick ;
out moral laws for his gulJanco througl
life and never deviates from his prescribe !
course. Mi.ny people carry a veneer o :
morality so far ns general c\tcrnal appear
anccs and regular church attend ince arc
concerned , but they lack the stability o ,
character and principles of the real morn1
man. H Is the men who make , much ode
alont the.r church associates , yet who i rc
slow In lending a helping hand to their fel.
lows in evcrjday life , who lay the churclie :
of the p-taent day open to ciltlclsm. /
man should be strictly Imbued with correc-
religious Ideas from the ground work r
before he enters the church and when once
a member , bhniild so crdaln his life thai
others cannot pick a Hvw In It.
"In electing to live a pure life there Is t
single fundamental principle to be observed
and that Is kindness. Kindness of though !
and action can only be acquired throiigl
communion with God through Jesus Christ
The Christian should pray dally for a be-
stowul of this blessing from his Creator
Kindness Is largely made manifest througl
the tongue. It Is the unkind worJs , uttciet
In moments of thoughtlessness or anger , thai
do harm In this world. An unklnJ won
frequently goes farther than a blow nnd Us
injury Is nhvujs a thousand fold more last-
Ing. In the harsh words uttered by parents
the natures of their children are otter
broken and their characters shaped foi
wrong doing. Kind -words In their stca < :
might have made an entire difference In the
after llve of the > oung.
"In engrafting the laws of kindness Intc
or.o's own nature great obstacles are en
countered. All natures are not alike. Some
natures are by heritage vicious. In sue ) :
easca the/ evil tendencies should be broken
and the bad Instincts made to subserve tc
the good , the same as aweak physical con
dition could bo changed Into a strong one
by proper exercise.
" 'Love suffcreth long' said St. Paul , and
this was ono of his truest sajlngs. It Is the
love of a parent for a crippled child or the
affection of a daughter for an Invalid mothoi
that oftlmes brings out the beautiful In the
hum in soul. Long jcars of constant obedi
ence to this law only Intensifies the sub
limity of a nature -which for love has cast
aside all other things of this world but duty ,
There Is no way In which the gospel can
be misinterpreted to teach unklndncss. HE
Instructions are directly opposed to such as
witnessed In the life cf Christ. "
Speaking of a quick temper , Rev. Smith
was of the opinion that H w s rather more ol
a blessing than a drawback , though oftlmes
linrd to curb , when placed under subjection
It became a helpful servant. Those of a
natuie of high tension when disposed to da
good accomplished much more than others
of un easjgoing disposition. Temper when
rightly directed was productive of much
gocd. All men who accomplished any
achievements worth mentioning , possessed
bnap and vigor. These attributes and temper
were identical.
The speaker concluded by stating- that life
was not worth living unless It was conducted
along the lines of love , friendly affection ,
[ Mirlty , chastity , kindness to all and for-
jearancc. Angry words should be a part of
10 man's life , so that when ho passed Into
: ho great world bejond all might say of him
: hat a noble spirit b.tl been gathered unto
the throne of his Maker.

Former Governor George W. Pock of WIs
consln ( pent thn Sabbath In Omaha. Ho wai
a EUost at the Mlllard hotel , where during (
greater part of the day ho received calls fron
many prominent citizens ,
The distinguished humorist of the IJadge :
state , whoso stories of "Tho Bed Hoy'
brought him Into International promtnonci
about fifteen jtara ago , has returned to llu
lecture platform after a long absence. Hi
has Just begun a season of engagement !
which promises to extend for Into the sum
mcr. Saturday night the governor lecturei
to a large audience at Highland Park college
In DCS Molncs and this c\cnlng he will fill ni
engagement at Norfolk , Neb. Mr , Pock departed
parted for that city this morning , but ho wll
return to Omaha tomorrow , en route to lili
home In Milwaukee , where ho purposes to re
main about two weeks before going on a ton :
of the southern slates. Governor Peck's
lectures Is about bojs and It deals with "rougl
and tumbled" and "pamiicred darling" boys
It Is thoroughly of the humorous crder , yet It
hn earnest and serious plea lor higher appre
ciation of the boy.
Governor Peck can talk about many things
just as entertainingly as he can lecture aboul
bojs and af'er he had mentioned the gallon !
polnta of his new lecture , which will bo de
livered In the humorist's Inimitable vein tc
thousands of pccylo before he supplants II
for something newer , the governor's convcr
eation drifted Into ether channels.
"I am very deeply Interested in the suc
cess of Omaha's earning exposition , " said he ,
"and to get some Idea of what magnitude II
will eventually assume I visited the ground *
this morning. I was astounded at what 1
saw. I had , of course , heard a great deal
about the Transmlsslsslppl falrnnd read niucli
more nbou * It. but I can truthfully say thai
I had never conceived of the mammoth prciioi'-
lions that It will embtace. The enterprise ol
your < : ltlzons Is something astonishing to L.IJ
the least. In their successful attempt to bring
this great show to a reality. I hive always
favored the Idea of a Transmlsslsslipl Expo-
sltlco since It Avas firbt broached , but
after wl.at I ha\e Pcen I am an enthusiast
over t'.ic project and hereafter -wherever and
whenever the opportunity affords Itself I shall
talk during my tra\els publicly and privately
for the success of the fair. The exposition
belongs to the nation ; it should be a national
pride. I admire such entccyilse and I love a
city that Is made up of the 'real stuff. ' As 1
say In my lecture , 'It's the singed cat that
finally gets there , ' and Omaha Is Jut > t like
this singed cat so far as the exposition la
consented.
WISCONSIN WILL BE unun.
"Wisconsin will have a state building at
thn fair , I am Informed , and It will have a
display hero which promises to eclipse the
one It maintained at the World's fair. There
Is no state appropriation set aside for this
representation , but I am Informed by men
who are managing Wisconsin's Transmls&ls-
slppl matters that people are responding llb-
crnlly to their appeal for a voluntary tub-
scrlptlon to bring the state to the exposition
In a befitting manner. Thousands of people
will attend the exposition from my state ,
and giving other transmisslsalppl ttalcs a
proportionate ratio of the attendance , I can
figure where they alone will send more than
2,500,000 people to Omaha this summer. I
predict that the total attendance at the great
show will not fall short of 5,000,000 people.
This , I think , Is a conservative estimate of
the number of people Omaha will bo called
upon to entertain during the summer. "
It has been nearly twenty years since Gov
ernor Peck visited Omaha before yes
terday and ho expressed wonderment at the
magnificent growth which the city has cn-
Jojed during that time. He Is delighted with
the broad streets and elegant buildings , and
ho said that itould prove to be uu Ideal
exposition city.
'VTho fair will bo of Incalculable benefit
to Omaha , " paid he. "It will bring to the
city and surrounding flection a piosperity In
six months that will push business to the
fore In a way that twenty-five > ears of
natural growth could not accomplish. The
period of prosperity will not die with the
fair hut it will la.st for years. Nothing could
ha\c been more opportune and beneficial to
general business out this way than the P.X-
pcsltlon. Within the next five > ears Omaha
will Increase at least 100,000 In population ;
It will become the greatest commercial c'.utcf
on the .Missouri river , and to thei exposition
Us citizens will owe all of their good for
tune. "
Governor Peck Is prominent In the demo
cratic party of his state. lie was governor
of Wisconsin for two terms mil has the dlo-
tlnctlon of having carried the state by JO.OOO
majority when It was considered safely re
publican by about 0,000. Ills Milwaukee
friends are trying to Induce him to become
a candidate for ir-ajor of the city , but ho
has about determined not to attempt iho
race.

The February term of the district cout
that convenes today } s likely to contlnu
for nearly three months. There arc 1,33
civil nnd ICO criminal cases docketed fo
trial. Many of these cases will bo con
tlnued over the terra , but there are cnoug !
ready to keep the 'judges ' busy until th
last of April.
Among the civil cases , the ono that Is re
garded as the most Important Is tha
wherein the state sues the bondsmen o
Joseph S. Bartley , vx-stato treasurer , fo
$500,000 , the amount of his embezzlement
This case Is on Judge Powell's call for th
first day of the term , but there Is a possl
blllty that It will bo passed until a late
date , though the state will Insist upon i
trial right nway. The application for a con
tlnuancc , If one Is made , will come fron
the defendant. The attorneys who reprc
sent him , It Is said , will file a showlni
In which they will nllcgo that their cllcn
cannot go to trial at this time for the rea
son that ono of his attorneys Is absent. The ;
will also allege that they have been unabli
to secure the attendance of witnesses whosi
testimony -would bo material. They wll
also attempt to show that they have beei
dllllgcMt In trying to secure the tcstlinon ;
of such witnesses , but have failed. If thi
case against the Bartley bondsmen goes ti
trial the hearing will consume fully foui
weeks , which will throw Judge Powell be
hind with his docket and may result It
some of his cases being transferred to thi
other Judges ,
While Judge Slabaugh has 1GO crlmlna
cases on his docket , most of them are unlm
portant and consequently will consume bu
little time. The ease agiilnst the Kostncrs
father and txjns , who are charged with mur
derlng Olllccr Tlcdcman nnd wounding Olfl
cor Olover , Is likely to consume ccnslder
able time , as It Is understood that the defendants
fondants will demand separate trla's ' , whlcl
of necessity will require the Introduction o
the fcaino evidence six times , as there an
two cases and three defendants.
It has been Intimated that the Kastnen
will never be tried for murder , it liavtap
been contended that the etato has no cvl-
denco upon which It can hope to secure c
conviction. The county attorney denies this
nnd tajs that he will prosecute for nnirdci
and that he will secure a conviction. Hi
sajs that while much of hla o\ldence 1 ;
purely circumstantial , ho has plenty of tes
timony by which he- can bring the crime
homo to the defendants.
The equity judges have plenty of work or
hand. This Is duo to the fact that a large
number of cases are brought over from lasl
term -and also because of the fact that many
now cages have been entered upon the dock
ets. The case wherein Marj Shelby contest *
the transfer made by Joseph Crelghtoa prloi
to his death promises to bo the mosl
lengthy. At the last term of court thlc
trial consumed more than a month and then
Is no reason to believe that It will be short
ened at this term.

ACCUSED BY THEIR TENAN1
Miss Leming Bays She Was Robbed by thi
Van Valkcnburgs ,
MAN AND WIFE HELD FOR BURGLARV
Ildlilirrj1'rrsoiitlntr Some Pocnllni

Notice SlorU' * Told by
Until
A burglary occurred at the residence 01
Elmer Von Valkenburg , 1821 Burt street , Sot
urday night , under circumstances that sug <
gcsted that the thief did not como from with *
cut , but was a member of the household. Th <
stolen property consisted of ? 75 In cash , twc
gold watches worth $145 , an opal locket and
chain and five gold rings , valued at J50 more ,
all the property of Sadie Lctnlng , a lodger al
the house. The occurrence was at firsl
regarded as an ordinary burglary , but from
what later developed Van Valkenburg nnd his
wife have been arrested on the charge ol
grand larceny.
Miss Leming has lived with the Van Valk-
euburgs for sc\eral months and had become
on Aery friendly terms with them. Saturday
nle t the two women wait to a masquerade
ball at Wnshlngto hall and returned home
together qulto late. It was noticed at once
that the house had been entered and searched
for \aluables. Windows were open and thu
contents of drawers were scattered about. An
examination showed that money nnd Jewelry
belonging to Miss Leming had been secured
from the bottom of a trunk , which had been
wrenched o\en. ) Her companion also found
lor window open and reported the loss of a
tieastiilu.
Xo suspicion of her landlady entered Miss
Lcmlng's mind and she concluded that her
property was bejond reach. She was unable -
able to sleep , ho\\o\er , and etneral hours
attci1 she had retired she heard a noise In
un adjoining room. In an apprehension lest
the burglar had returned , shu stole softly
to the door and looked out. She saw a
bright light In the room of Mrs. Van Valken-
burg nnd , as she knew the latter's husband
was abattit , as usual , for the night , she
went quickly to her door and turned the
knob. Contrary to what Miss Leming states
Is the usual custom , she found the door
locked and called out to bo admitted. The
woman within hesitated and then , blowing
out the light , admitted her. Her manner
was so unusual that Miss Lemlng received
her first busplcloti and asked her what was
the matter. The woman said she had been
examining her trunk for lost hairpins , but
gave no excuse for her choice of that itir-
tlcularly late hour. Miss Leming ga\e no
Indication of her suspicion and returned to
her loom. Yesterday morning .Mis. Van
Valkctiburg went herself to the police bta-
tlon nnd reported the matter as n burglary.
Close behind came her lodger , who ga\e an
account of her busplclons to the police. A
search warrant was Issued and after a care
ful examination what Is thought to bo most
of the stolen money was secured from the
toj ) of a heavy curtain , where It had been
fcecurcly pinned. It had been sewed up in
a linen cloth , which is thought to ha\c
been the woman's occupation on Saturday
night. The sum amounted to $30 In bills ,
foldedIn a manner which Miss Leming
recognl/ed as her own. She said that she
had noticed the same familiar creases also
In a ? 5 bill which Mrs. Van Valkenburg had
paid her yesterday morning on an old
furniture bill. The woman's husband , who
Is thought to have done the actho work of
the burglary , while the women were absent
at Iho ball , was searched and other similar
bills were found on his person , bringing the
amount of the money reco\ercd to ? C5. Van
yalkenburg has been employed by the city
garbagemaster In night work.

The & ft
ns a Serial , in Ten Instalments , Beginning Feb. 13. *
( WITH 1LLUSTHATIOJJS. )
*
| N this story Mr. Haggard makes a new demon $
's ' G B stration of his wonderful power in the field of t
pure romance. He once more boldly lifts the ft
curtain that hides the fate of nations dead and buried &
* ? } ? in the ages of which no record remains , except in the & ft
* silent ruins of their cities. ftft. .
ft Zimboe , an inland trading city that flourished in 9
ftft ftft the heart of Africa 3,000 , years ago , and peopled by 4Jf
ft the Phoenicians , is the scene of the story. To this 4Jfft
& city comes Prince Aziel , a grandson of King Solomon , ft
ftft accompanied by Isaachar , a priest of Israel , and Metem , *
ftft a Phoenician trader , who brings a caravan of mer ftft
ft ft
*
ftft chandise.
ft ft
ftft In Elissa , daughter of Sakon , King of Zimboe , ftft
ftft the prince meets his fate. King Ithobal , lord of many ft
ftft
ftft legions of savage warriors , is already a suitor for her ftf
ftft hand. He sues in true barbarian fashion , seeks to ft
ft carry her off by force , and is foiled in the attempt by *
Prince Aziel. The story unfolds itself around the feud &
between the Prince of Israel and the savage King Itho *
B ? bal. Elissa has already given her heart to Aziel , and jtit.r W
# loaths the barbarian monarch. Isaachar , the priest , is ft
* determined that no prince of the house of David shall *
rft wed a heathen maiden , whose people worship Baal. f
ftft As a result of his intrigues , Elissa is elected the high
ftft priestess of Baal. 4s
ft 4sft
ftf This fixes an impassable religious gulf between ft
f ft her and Aziel. Their passionate love seeks to surmount
t5 !
ftft mount all barriers. Meantime Ithobal draws his huge * } p
ft army of savages around the fated city , and demanding #
% Elissa in marriage , prepares to destroy it if he is re it ?
* & fused. How Elissa violates her oath as high priestess A i
ftft and prepares to fly with Aziel ; how they are both discovered
ft 4 ?
* covered and threatened with death by the priests of #
ft Baal ; how , to save each other , she , by her right as the < : *
* high priestess of Baal , names him her husband , while *
* he renounces his faith and offers incense to Baal ; how
ftft Ithobal's horde of savages storms the walls of the city , ife
ft and both Aziel and Elissa fall into his power ; and $
* how , at last , Aziel escapes with his life by Elissa's * 5 *
ft
* feigned submission to Ithoba' , she , in turn , escaping * * ! *
ft Ithobal by killing herself , is all told in Mr. Haggard's * &
* most fascinating manner. f
ft The awful ceremonies in the temple of Baal , the #
ftI weird rites in the sacred groves of Zimboe , and the #
ftI barbarous battle scenes of that far-off time , are *
I described with all the author's marvelous wealth of m
imaginative resource.
f It is a story that will surely rank as one of the ,
great works of fiction of 1898.
