llrv. .InrUnon'n Slornliiw Sermon.
Hev. Frank I ) . Jackson delivered an In
teresting sermon at Pilgrim Congregational
chapel Sunday morning on "Tho Seventh
Commandment , " found In Exodus 20:14. : Ho
Introduced a brief prelude with the read
ing of the scripture lesson advising children
and young people not to be afraid of worker
or of an honest profession.
llev. Mr. Jackson eald the words of his
tex , "Thou halt not commit adultery , "
foiiced a theme -which many ministers dls-
Jlko.l to speak upon , but those- watchers In
< ! od's towers who had the good of the cause
nt Heart feel that It Is a subject with which
they must deal sometimes. As the ten
commandments , ho said , were Inspired for
the protection of society and Its environ
ments , this special commandment was laid
down for the protection of the home. Ho
related the history of the creation of Adam ,
and of 13ve as his companion and helpmeet.
Ho believed It was God's Intention to glvo
each man a cheerful , loving companion , and
Ho gave them the typo In the first couple.
Later , polygamy crept Into society , but to
day It Is different. God's original plan Is
again being regarded as the beat and men
nro giving morn thought to the maintenance
of the homo than ever before.
llov. Mr. Jackson referred briefly to the
many divorces which are occupying the at
tention of the courts , the meet trivial cause-
often being urged In a petition. Ho said
the amount of Impurity In the great cities
in appalling , and ho denounced the wine
rooms and the proscribed district of Omaha
as evidence thereof. The Influence of the
exposition last year upon the young of the
city , ho held , was the cause of much of the
crlmo against morality.
The speaker stated that there are two
rockH upon which man may depend God
and woman. His estimate of them would
determine the character of aman. ,
Homo must be a place of rest and en
couragement , said the preacher. Men arc
tried in their places of business , and want
jieaco when they retire to their homos.
IMarriago Is not slavery , ho urged , nor
wholly a legal condition. The coming of
children Into a home , while adding new
duties for the parents , will brighten It and
draw them nearer together. Home must bo
the altar of man's affections.
Thojtill duty of parents to their children
is nornone in their homes. Children should
lie told these things and not left to learn
thorn from tholr companions. Paints
ehould know whore their children are , who
nro their asaoolutes and what kind of aimmo-
inent they seek and prefer. As Paul acl-
vlscd Timothy , "Keep thyself pure , " so
parents should teaoh their children to watch
their heartu and drive out evil thoughts.
[ Ho believed that children should bo told
the evil consequences of wrongdoing that
may como to them physically. They should
lie warned to berroro of papers , companions
nnd conversation which bring ovll thoughts
Into their hoartn. They should be urged to
nvold Impure books and value the love and
confidence of thelr , parents. The speaker
ndded that the love of a good woman would
do more to keep a young man pure and clean
than anything elso.
In closing , the Bpeaker pleaded for the
protection of womanhood. He held It to bo
the duty of all men to do this. Their coun-
eel should always bo to shield the character
of women and their lives ought to bo devoted -
voted to rebuking those who speak evil of
women. He urged the men In his audience
to lend their assistance to making the lives
of women brighter In the office , on the
utrcct , or In the homo.

view of the recent bereavement of that

Ill n Sermon on "lleicreeM In ( .lor1" He
Combntn Some I'lipiilnr Vlenw ,
In preaching upon the subject , "Degrees
In Glory , " Rev. T. J. Mackay of All Saints'
iliurch yesterday morning presented n
doctrine to his congregation that bears n
startling similarity to old Oriental religious
beliefs. He declared that there are several
fctagoB of paradise , through which both the
most spiritually pure and repenting sinner
of the earth must pass before reaching the
heaven that Is the ultimate Imven of nil.
Several otlicv peculiar conceptions of the
future llfo were Rico shattered In the course
of the discourse.
"It Is the popular belief that the mur
derer who died repenting Upon the scaffold
goes to the same heaven as his victim , "
said llov. Mr. Mackny in the course of his
H marks. "Many Ctitlstlans arc shocked nt
such a conception nnd It Is revolting to
think of such n thing. Just as there are
no two stars alike , so llio wise and tlic
Ignorant , the pure and the Impure , are not
on Mio Bamo plane In the future life. To
bcTuTvo that paradlso and heaven are a dull
level piano Is worse Infinitely than to bc-
llcvc In complete annihilation. The beautjr
of the earth consists In tliu variety of nil
things and certainly heaven shall not be
less Interesting. "
In explaining his Idea of the future home ,
llov. Mr. Mackay declared that the popular
Idea Is that the abode of the departed I ft
'heaven ' from the very beginning. But he
Inslutcd that the scriptures glvo no sucli
conception. They declare that the dead
shall go cither to hades or paradise. There
Is too much of the earthly about even the
purest to go directly to the celestial heaven.
Just what the future homo tJiall bo It I *
Impossible to toll , hut the pastor thought
of It as n scries of heavenly mansions in
whlrjb the departed are prepared gradually
for that highest sphere , where "God is lite
and from which they go out no more. "
Immortality , too , Is a mistaken conception
In the popular mind , aald Dr. iMackay. People
ple generally picture It as a life of stagna
tion , wherein the people of the earth ulti
mately mlnglo together with the same ma
terial bodies which they Inhabit on earth.
Hut the preacher declared that the resur
rection of the body does not mean the ris
ing of the physical structure. The earthly
body Is entirely thrown aside by the departed -
parted and the spiritual body alone ascends
to paradise. With death comes the entire
secession of the too prevalent physical and
earthly communion of people and a spiritual
Intercourse follows.
Theao mistaken nnd popular notions of
heaven and Immortality deter many from
belief In them , continued Rev. Mackay ,
when , as a matter of fact , their true con
ceptions are absolutely In accord In reason.
For example , there Is a hr.untlng fear that
In the future llfo , If the material body Is
left behind , the husband will not recognize
the wife , the child the parent. IJut Dr.
Mackay Insisted that the departed will be
clothed with a new Incorruptible body capable -
pablo of knowing and being known. And the
Intercourse between them will be far sweeter
than that on earth.
Then , again , there Is some doubt as to
the meeting of friends In the next world
that , If there are different degrees of para
dise , a pure wife cannot be certain of meet
ing again a bestial husband In the world
to como. Rev. Mackay declared , however ,
that after death It will be the duty of the
purer soul , which has gained a greater de
gree of glory , to teach the erring one and
to guide him through paradlee until they
are both united In the final heaven.

I.IMV oT t'i > niiieiMitlon.
That all life , whether animal or vegetable ,
Is founded on the Immutable law of com
pensation was the conclusion reached by
Rev. D. D. Hurt In his morning sermon at
the First Christian church. The subject
was treated from a moral point of view to
show that the rule holds good In this par
ticular as well as In material affairs.
The speaker compared the ancient dee
trlno of "an eye for an eye , and a tooth
for a tooth , " with the higher Idea that Is
Inculcated by the teachings of Christ. If
a man suffers an Injury and Insists on ex
acting strict retribution according to the
ancient usage ho makes his assailant hi *
enemy forever. But If ho comes up to the
higher plane and returns good for evil ho
malces him 'his ' frlond ,
"Tho same rule holds In the distribution
of material wealth. If I meet a man on the
street who la In need and I know that from
my abundance I can spare something It 1
will , I am confronted with a similar propo
sition , " bald the preacher. "Is 'what Is
mine Is mine * the law of the universe , or
Is there a law Hint says to mo 'this man
has none nnd you have plenty , It Is your
right to give ? " If ho hag not given to me ,
some time In the past some one who was
equally Interested In him has Indirectly
helped me and the law of compensation re
quires that I should now reciprocate. "
The law of compensation In human life
was compared to that whlcti prevails in
nature. The soil glveb Its strength to the
flower , and the flower sends It foith In
fragrance. The farmer must compensate the
soil , and the soil will then compensate
him. So all llfo Is a question of giving nnd
taking.
In conclusion , the thcmo was applied to
the relations of men ulth their Creator.
The speaker declared that God demands
something for all that He has given to us.
The great question with every human being
should bo what ho Is doing to compensate
God.

Rev. F. M. Troxell of Sprlngllcld. Ill ,
occupied the pulpit at Kountzo Memorial
Lutheran church yesterday morning , and
was greeted by a good congregation. Ills
discourse was on the thought that a Chris
tian character was not only an essential
thing In the eyes of God , but It was neces
sary In the making of a good citizen , and
a reputable business man. Ho held It to
bo the bulwark of the liberties vouchsafed
to the people of this republic ; through It
these liberties came Into existence and
have been nourished. Without It none of
the blessings of civilization were possible.
He thought one should bo thankful for the
good thlngu of the world , and be willing to

"Whftt the nation , the business world and
the church most need , " said Mr. Troxoll ,
"Is a right heait and clean hands. The na
tion w nt a more Christian mnnhood and
womanhood. The best thing anyone can
present to his country Is a loyal manhood ,
mndp clean through Christian Influence , nnd
through having been born again Into a new
life. "

.AMUSEMENTS.
. . .
\ diversified , highly amusing and enter-
tnlnljig vaudeville bill Is that which had
Us first presentation nt the Crelghton-
Orpht'um theater Sunday afternoon. Like
If.st week's bill , there nro not any tlrcsomt-
acts In It nnd If anything It Is better than
Its predecessor. It Is hard to pick Uie
turn that made the biggest lilt , but the
satirical comedy sketch , "For Reform , "
presented by Hugh Stnnton nnd Florence
Modena , probably created tie most laughter ,
whllo the applause .hits wcro made by
Watcrbury Brothers nnd Tenny , musical
nrtlstB , and James Richmond Glenroy , char
acter monologlst , ca h of the other num
bers also receiving generous approbation In
the way of applause.
The sketch offered by Stanton and Modem
la n bright llttlo thing anil gives these
clover performers n. splendid opportunity to
display their versatility. Hoth arc artists
nnd bring out to n nicety nil of the laugn-
nblo as well as dramatic points In the
sketch.
Waturbury Brothers and Tonney offer fif
teen minutes of mirth and melody. As a
rule comedy Introduced In musical turns
makes them tiresome , rather than enter
taining , but In this case the comedy is not
the least pleasing part of the act. Their
instruments are , with but one or two ex
ceptions , novelties , and the music Iliey get
out of them Is surprlnlnK-
James Richmond Glenroy crowds about as
much wit and humor Into a twenty-minute
monologue act us IB possible and keeps the
audience In an uproar of laughter.
The contortion work of the Pulitzer trio ,
comprising two young women nnd a mail ,
is wonderful. They glvo an exhibition of
twisting and bending the like of which has
not been seen at this theater since Its open
ing.
Percy Honrl Is n concertino player par
excellence. Ills Imitations of Scotch bag
pipes , ihurcih organs and so on are very
clover , while the rendition of Suppo's
"Light Cavalry" was n classical achieve
ment that ono would hnrdly think could be
possible' upon this quaint Instrument.
Anna Kenwlck sings coon songs and
dances In n most characteristic manner , her
mannerisms and volco being very like that
of the negro.
Wilson and Halpln seemed to please with
an act called "Casey nnd the Tramp. "
Last night "A Bachelor's Honeymoon"
pleased a moderate sized audience at the
Boyd. In plot the peace closely resembles
"What Happened to Jones" and similar
plays. It deals with the trials and tribula
tions of a young widower who clandestinely
marries an actress and takes her to his homo
and Introduces her to his sister and friends
as the new governess to his two daughters.
This ruse ho had to adopt because his father
loft him a fortune on the condition that he
was not to marry without the consent of his
maiden sister nnd then only the woman
she should approve of.
Walter Walker , a very clever comedian
of the Charles Dlckson order , enacts the
role of the bachelor In a most pleasing man
ner" and Miss Delia Stacey , the actress , Is
seen to advantage. 'Mildred St. Pierre got
all that , was In the part of Barbara , a maid
servant with literary aspirations and an In
clination to delve Into mysteries and secrets.
A very clover characterization of a Gorman
doctor was given by Bmll Hock. The other
members of the company were seen to ad
vantage. The piece Iteolf Is a clever con
coction. It IK bright In its lines and filled
with unexpected comedy situations.
Ono of the members of the company seen
In a minor role is May Warde , the daughter
of Frederick Wardo , the tragedian. She is
making her first tour and is said to pos
sess n great deal of talent.

An exciting race for a kidnaped baby , In
which the father , the child and a policeman
figured aa participants , furnished entertain
ment for Sunday pedestrians who chanced
to stroll In the neighborhood of Twenty-
fourth and Dodge streets about o'clock In
the afternoon. The father's nnmo Is Frank
Hamilton and his pursuer was Patrolman
Storey.
For three blocks Hamilton , with the baby
held fast upon his shoulder , ron SB fast as
ho could with locomotion Impeded by In
ability to use his arms. In the meantime
the Infant beat the air with hja ohubby fists
and shrieked at the top of his voice , whllo
Oincor Storey , who had a block the worst of
the start , gained on the kidnaper at every
stride and finally overhauled him nt Twenty-
second and Dodge streets , there placing
him under arrest.
At the beginning of the race Hamilton
grabbed the baby from Its carriage as It was
being wheeled by Us mother along Farnam
street for an airing anil nt the cud , whllo
the policeman was questioning his prisoner ,
Mrs. Hamilton appeared on the scene , hav
ing been unable to keep pace with the lead-
era In the pursuit , and her explanation shed
n ray of light upon the proceeding.
The Mntlier'N Story.
Mrs , Hamilton explained that nearly a
year ago , when she and her husband agreed
to llvo apart , a contract between them was
made authorizing her possession of the child
pending the decision of the court with ref
erence to a divorce. The baby Is only S
months old and previous to Sunday Hamil
ton had made no attempt to take It from thu
mother's care.
According to Mrs. Hamilton's story the
kidnaping was unexpected. She lives with
her mother , Mrs. Alice Ranklu , at 111 North
Twenty-filxth street. Mra. Hamilton sug
gested taking a walk and , accompanied by
'Mrs. ' Rankln , she was wheeling the baby
down the street when the child's father un
expectedly was met. Without warning he
grabbed his child from the carriage and rau.
Officer Storey was on his way to repoit for
work when he heard the mother's screams
and saw Hamilton running with the baby.
When ho overtook the kidnaper the baby was
restored to Its mother and Hamilton was
locked up In Jail on the charge of disturbing
the peace.
tMra. Hamilton will make an effort thla
morning to have her husband placed under
bonds.
