V "The name Augustus had never been con-
ferret ! on any man until a truculent senate
gave It to Caltis Octavianus. Tflrce hundred
temples Were dedIcated to hint until the
people awoke to the awful thought that
they bad no other god. The cross they
despised became a scythe that mowed down
the iOIUP and pride of that atheistic empire
and not even the genius of a Marcus Au-
rellus could stay it. Out of the first twelve
Roman emperors ten died by the band of
violence.
" 0 Rome , thou woullst hare no king but
Caesar , anti now thou hiast no Caesar king !

wouldst have no king but Caesar and now

V them shout exultantly , 'Away with Caesar ;
crucify him ; we have no king but JeSUS ! '
Then will the mountaIns molt fill the valleys -
leys 1)0 lifted up , and the milleniuni will be
here. "
' Dr. Lee then reviewed the history
of Spain and also France , to show the fate
' of false national Ideals. Ito took the period
t of Charles V for Spain , asking :
i V "What did Charles V think of ? Only the
Supremacy of Charles and tiLe POPe. How
t did he keep Charles great ? Only by the
ironclad , triple alternative of conversion ,
tribute or the sword. Spain's history has
I ' ever been characterized with the terrible
monotony of this bloody alternative. How
did ho keep the power of the pope ? By
the agency of that fearful monster In human -
man form , Torqueiunda , who In lila short
time slew 12,182 souls and tortured iiearly
200,000 more. Spain is fallen , thank God ,
I know not what the future has in store for
this Insignificant empIre , now confined tea
a corner of Europe , the gate of which is
held by the English. It has chosen Caesar
and it has got Caesar.
"And France-beautiful , gIddy , profligate
France ! It also chose Caesar , mind how
often the streets of l'arls have flowed with
human blood ! Bright , profligate , brilliant ,
rich. powerful Louis XIV had no other god
but himself , no other dream than the glory
of France. The kingdom passed to Louis
xv , but It was like an apple rotten at the
core. Louis XV was guilty of such awful
crimes that the historian could not chroni-
do them , lie was satisfied If only the em-
piro survived him.
"After him caine Louts XVI , weak and
irresolute , like his EnglIsh prototype.
Charles I. His courtiers cried in theIr wantonness -
tonness , 'After us the delugo. ' At last the
deluge came-a deluge of blood , of Satanic
passion , of unbridled fury. You remember

clety anti the guillotine wan regarded as

Dr. W. II. Van Antwerp of the Episcopal

Trinity cathedral in this city from 1864 to
1868 , occupIed tIme imipit of his former
church here yesterday. lie was greeted by
iargo congregations at both morning and
evening services , the attendance at the
former service taxing the seating capacity
of the cathedral.
Dr. Van Antwerp still appears In good
health , but his voice has weakenedand his
friends vlio had seats in the rear of the
church had dimculty In hearing him.
At the conclusion of the services a great
number of the worshipers remained to exchange -

Tuesday evening lie will be tendered a reception -
ception at the parish house , and on Friday
evening will deliver a lecture on "Omaha

The text 9t the morning discourse was :
"Your Fathers , Where are They ? " And the
Prophets , Will They Live Forever ? " In the
course of his sermon based on this text , Br.
\an Antwcrp said : "Our old testament
heroes have their places well preserved in

between tIme heroes of the scriptures and
the heroes of profane history , History
paints nIl its b rocs as great men. In
tlio scriptures the heroes arc painted impartially -
partially ; they are shown in nIl their colors -
ors ; all their wenknesses and their strength
is displayed. The old time prophets were
men living in dark ages. We sco them
stripped of all tIme accessories of grace tind
beauty , but in their rugged strength we
find worthy examples for these tatter days.
'The old time prophets had faith in their
mission. They had faith in God. They
were men of faith anti they wore mighty

They were hopeful under discouragement.
Theirs was not the heroism of the soldier.
They covered another field of heroism , time

the heroism we find among our forefathers.

"The ideal statesman is the one who
molds the thought of his peop1. Every
Christian may be an ideal statesman in his
own world , no matter how small it may be ,
by molding the opinion of those about us
for good. We are time Inheritors of all that
hns gone before us , and we should use
our precious legacies for the good of those
with whom we are thrown in contact. The
doctrine of the conservation of energy and
of force has its place in the spiritual as
vell as in the temporal world. There is
no power that is lost. All power and force
is conserved , The spiritual force of God's
blessing Is never lost. Ills void dee not
return empty ,
"Front the character of the prophets ,
from the character of our fathers , we gain
great good. Their examples should not be
lost upon us. Vhat American boy today is
not more inspired to deeds of valor in the
present war because of the examples set by
Washington , by Lincoln , by Grant ? Every
man is Immortal until his work is done , We
are living in an age of wonderful pmogrcss
and development , The generations are mov-
log fast out of the limitations of former
generations. But with wealth anti confidence -
denco come temptations to let fail our oars.
Against these temptations we must acal-
ously guard. 110w much more than ever

000rMi. to tile Bible.
Rev , A. .1. Turkle of the Icountzo ic-
morial Lutheran church yesterday morning
Preached a sermon of "great comfort , " based
upon the scriptural injunction of the
Saviour , "Come unto Me , aU ye that labor
and are heavy laden , and I will give you
rest. " Ills remarks combatted the rather
prevalent sentiment that a sorrow should be
kept holy , particularly such a one as is
caused by the band of death ,
"There is more happiness than afflIction in
every soul , " declared the preacher , "as
there is more good than bad in the world.
Yet adversities caine uiiawarcs and not an
hour imasses. not a minute , that is not
burdened with heartaches , writhings and
groaniimgs , Yet , while we are forbidden
from taking the divine seals and interpreting
thejudgments of Clod , sorrow in itself is not
good , Ordinarily it is supposed to sanctify ,
consecrate and purity. Nothing is less cer-
tam. All depends on the inner state of the
one who suffers. It brings one to repent-
mince ; it hardens another , Death will cause
one to cast God out of his heart ; It will oft-
times summon the living to new duties aod
result in a richer and nobler lire.
"LAte is not a failure because sorrow anti
aillictions conic into it. Ill health Is naturally -
ally discourtmgiug , but if God be in it we
need not be disheartened ; lie is able to
make nioro of us in our shattered health

The pulpit of the Ffrst Congregational
church was fihleti yesterday morning by 11ev ,
V , E. Todd of Creston , ha. , who preached
on "I'ower of Choice. " Re , . Mr. Todd con-
sithcred tile circumstances and influences
which are brought to bear on mankind , and
showed how potent the influence of a an-
promo and all powerful being is in shaping
and controlling the lives of men. In tim
choice of profession and in time deciding of
momentous questions In our destinies , wo
are subject to unseen influences which shape
our choice. Along side by side with this
guiding power of heaven Is the God-given
liberty of choice , When Dr. Chauncey M.
Depew was asked in England if
there was liberty in the United
States , he said that there was , but
that there was law along wIth IL It is so
with tIme liberty of choice , it is accomiammicd
by a divine law.
"Ever since time days of Adani , " said 11ev.
Todd , "men have been placed in Etler.s anti
called upon to exercise thin right of choice.
Adam failed In his temptation , and taco
have failed since then , anti will oh-
ways continue to do so. Job withstood the
vhisprings of the tempter and remained
faithful to his master even in the cruelest
of adversity. Time prmier of England was
placed in a position where it WS within his
Power to stay the slaughter of Christians
in Armenia , but he failed to exercise his
prerogative of choice. A greater man was
placed where it was within his power to
relieve a people who were suffering terrible
oppression and the white winged dove of
peace is hovering over us to tell how gloriously -
ously he chose.
"To every nian God has given reason , anti
the power to think has led men to different
beliefs anti creeds. The Clmristian8 of the
world hold many different beliefs. Different
minds grasp truth differently , and cannot
agree exactly. God has put It into the
hearts of men not to impose their peculiar
beliefs upon others , and faith in Jesus
Christ is the ground upon which the differ.
ent churches meet in common fellowship.
There is need of the exercise of choice in
religion , but God has proscribed a law which
governs men of all faiths ,
"Men may feel that the shaping of their
careers lies wholly within their own power ,
and disregard faith in a supreme shaper of
the destinies of mankind , but the will of
heaven Is continually being manIfested ,
Christ stands forth us the hero of mankind
and the demonstration ot the ability of man
to live-without slnlngagainst his neighbors
and God , and belief in Him and In His
divine guidance is the safeguard against
wrong choices In temptation. All good in
the world can ho traced to the divine Masi
tcr , and success can be achieved only with
1-us assistance , "

Dr. A. F. Sherrihl preached yesterday
morning to the congregation of St. Mary's

"Keep His Word and Itaverence His Sane-

the melancholy life of Elijah and of his
request to God that his life be taken and
of the answer God gave , telling him to continue -
tinue working and all would be well.
About the war hesaid : , "When has there
been a clearer indication of God's presence
than there is in the present war with
Spain ? God always punishe those who
have disobeyed His word and the Spanish
nation , mvith its long and continued mur-
dera and butcheries , must sooner or hater
have reached its end. Now that Spain is
so nearly conquered it is to be sincerely

presence is not seen in the thundering and

tacle of , great armies anti navies , but in the
still , small voice which follows the noise
and uproar of the strife , "
In his concluding prayer Sherrlll
prayed that the Spabish nation ho belle-
fited by the war and 1made a good and

The report of the Omaha Public library
recently prepared for the year coiling May
31 , shows that the institution has passed
an increasingly useful existence in ( list
time. During the year 2,161 now volumes
hare been occessioned , bringing time books
actually on the schves to 47,280. In the
same period 207,319 books have been drawn
by borrowers , time high-water mark for
one they being 1,600 on February 20.
'rho most noteworthy additions during the
year have been the following : "Life of
Alfred Tennyson , " Tennyson ; "Jesuit lIe-
latlons , " volumes 8 to 18 , Thwnito ; "Life of
William Morris , " ValIance ; "Master Car

utmmes 1 to 47 ; "history of Modern I'octry , "
Mather ; "Temple of Deirel Ilabari , " Ne-
vllle : 'Naukrntis , " anti "Tanis , " Petria.
Through the efforts of lIon. David H Mercer -
cer the sets of public documents , already
extensive , have been almost completed. The
library has also kept abreast of time times
in tlmo various realms of fiction , history ,
travel and the arts ,
The reference room has shown. an Un-
tmsual growth and is now one of tIme most
Important departments in the library , it
has accomn'modntned 26,352 visitors during
the year , an Increase over tIme preceding
year of 3,312. It has become the working
headquarters of students In all imaginable
lines , and is used constantly by different
organizations in connection with the lea-
turo room up stairs. Among these have
been the Technical club , French history
anti child study departments of the \Vo-
flail's club , English history class of time
Young Men's Christian association , two
classes in Egyptology. There has also been
a heavily increased pressure on the reading
rootna , due especially to the war and the
exposition.
Circulation i.i Deereasltmg.
While these departments show such an
encouraging activity the general circulation
shelves hare suffered a decrease In patronage -
age of about 2,000. ThIs loss has been gradually -
ually increasing in the circulation department -
ment for a number of years and is attributed -
uted by the librarian to the fact that the
residence portion of the city is growing
away from the library , making its accommodations -
modations less accessible. It was Imointed
out that as the library was desIgned largely
for geople who could not afford to buy
books for themselves this class was one
which finds it an inconvenience to convey
books back and forth.
The librarian says that in many cities
simmahler than Omaha there is a system of
out-stations , to which books are taken and
distributed to residents of the vicinity anti
suggests that it snighit at some time be
found practicable here. Such a plan was
started several yearn ago , but was not thor-
oughhy tried.
There has also been some talk among
those intetested in the library of inereas-
Ing its popularity by throwing Its shelves
open to the-public. To do this , however , it
would be necessary to rearrange the shelving -
ing with east and west corridors and to
make an entire change in the system of
classifIcation. That now in use , the I'er-
kins system , adopted in 1887 , is not sufficiently -
ciently subdivided to allow the ordinary
reader to locate the object of his search.
Time Dewey system , now generally adopted ,
offers the only practicable scheme of subdivisions -
divisions for 'this purpose , being a decimal
system readily untlerstood by anyone.
The report of the librarian just submitted
for July shows a further increase in the
use of the reading and reference rooms.
The former has accommodated 3,942 visitors ,
an. increase over time corresponding month
last year of 780 , w'hmile the referemco : room
had an attendance of 1,569-141 in excess
of one year ago.
