iAn attempt on the part of Constable
Albert ! to make another seizure at the
Grand Plaza , Lake Manawa , yesterday after
noon under n search warrant Issued from
the court of Justice Vlen , resulted In a
clash between the county and civil author
ities. The search warrant was sworn to
by Colonel F. C. Heed , who has declared his
intention of preventing the sale of liquor
contrary to law at the resort , which ho In
former times owned.
When Constable Albertl , accompanied by
Ocorgo Baker and W. Scott , deputies ,
reached the Grand Plaza armed with the
search warrant and warrants for the arrest
of the parties engaged In selling the liquor ,
they were notified by Deputy Sheriff Kirk ,
the special officer nt the lake , that ho al
ready held a search warrant issued from
the court of Justice Illcf of Lewis township
and that all the liquor was In his charge.
Constable Albertl protested , as liquor was
being sold right then and there. Ho told
Deputy Sheriff Kirk to execute his warrant
or ho would his and finding there was no
other course open to him , Kirk seized the
liquor and loaded It Into a wagon that was
In waiting outside the fence.
George Baker , Albertl's deputy , claims
that when ho attempted to take Into cus
tody one of the men selling beer , ho was
assaulted by Deputy Sheriff McLyman and
thrown out of the garden. Finally Constable
Albertl and his two deputies left , having
in custody two waiters named Coffman and
McElroy , whom they brought before Justice
Vlen. The men gave ball In the sum ot
$100 each , Emll Schurz going on both their
bonds.
The search warrant Issued from Justice
Hlct's court , It Is claimed , was secured by
a party friendly to the management of the
Grand Plaza in order to forestall Colonel
Reed.

SKIIMOX ON MINISTRY OP SOUHOW.
Suhject U ( Inltc Fully Illncnnncil by
HfV. AV. S. liiirncH.
"Tho Ministry of Sorrow" was the subject
taken by Kev. W. S. Barnes , pastor of the
First Presbyterian church , for his sermon
yesterday morning , the theme being sug
gested by the many deaths that have
occurred In the congregation this summer.
His text was taken from Job xxlll , 10 ;
"When He hath tried me I shall come forth
as cold. " He said in part :
"There Is always sorrow In the world , but
we are not alwavs equally conscious of it.
Just now many of us are- feeling its touch
moro Keenly than usual. Within the circle
of our own church wo have seen in the
last few weeks strong men weeping , women
prostrated with crlef. sunny youth over
shadowed and made sadly serious by ser
row. The thing accounted by many as only
a remote possibility has become an actual
fact and hearts are bowed with woe. What
Is the meaning of all this sorrow and why
does It come ? Is there anything good in
it ? Is there any benefit to come to us ?
Must the Christian simply bow to these
things with a little moro of submlsslvcness
and patience , but with only a feeling that
it Is the stern decree of fate , from which
there Is no possible relief ; n cup of unmolli-
flcd bitterness ; a lacerated wound that will
not heal ? Or are these sorrows somehow
to minister good to us , so that while we
can not escape them nor mitigate their
palnfulness , yet wo ourselves are not to
be left by them just as they found us ?
Let us stop and think quietly today , In the
stillness of God's house and under the In
spiration of His presence.
" 'When Ho hath tried me , I shall come
forth as gold. ' Wo may acknowledge at
once that God's hand Is in it all. We are
not the victims of blind fate. Wo live in a
universe of Intelligence , all of which is
under the control and direction of one sov
ereign hand. AVe need to remind ourselves
of this when the shadows have settled about
us and the sharsness ot our own Buffering
has made us forget the larger world and the
higher hand that rules It.
"Sorrow softens. Pure gold Is softer
than the alloys that are combined with It.
Pass the Impoverished metal through the
fire and you reduce the hardness by remov
ing the dross. Sorrow seems to serve ns
refining fire to us ; It burns out some of the
baser metals , for the time at least. It
Is good to weep. It makes us childlike.
The child heart Is tender. It weeps easily.
It has not become callous to pain , And
wo adults arc reduced to the tenderness of
childhood when something has brought us
to the point of feeling nt which we ween.
The human heart Is always tender under a
real sorrow. Our hard feellnes are over
come. Our llttlo animosities , our petty jeal
ousies and hostilities all fade away. They
are drowned out by the flood of present
sorrow. Then we can forgive , we can love ,
we can pity as we did not do before. The
depths of the soul are broken up by the
penetrating stroke.
"Sorrow strengthens. We never know
how much wo can endure until wo have been
put to the test ; and wo never know how
much God can bo trusted until we have
put him to the test. That which seems to
exhaust for the present Is apt to be followed
by a reaction , a reviving of strength In
greater proportion. The great sorrow makes
the little trdubles of life fade Into Insigni
ficance ; and things that formerly greatly
annoyed are now borne with little discom
fort. Wo are weakened by a strain only for
a time ; we shall be able to bear other
strains more successfully. After being
Btunned , dazed , crushed , a calm composure
tennis to settle down upon the spirit that
thenceforth bears the mark ot a stronger
manhood or womanhood. There la a true
dignity of manhood attained when there Is
something deeper and stronger In the inner
life than others can know. Sorrow refines
and purifies. The gold Itself Is not de
stroyed by the heat , only freed from Its
Impurities , The soul Is not destroyed by
sorrow ; only cleared of some of Its defects.
When you see a person In middle life pos
sessed of noticeable gentleness , mildness
and sweetness of spirit you can be almost
certain that somewhere back In that life's
history there has been a great sorrow ,
which was accepted and borne in such spirit
at the time as to leave Its Impress perma
nently. The most delicate and beautiful of
the human races have grown under a shadow ,
no that what you admire and enjoy and
love so much you might wrep for in grati
tude It you knew all the history of its de
velopment.
"Then sorrow rightly borne U not an un
mitigated evil. It ha much to do with tb
making of eternal quality In us. H purges
us ot minor faults. It weans us from
worldly affections. It reminds us that the
spirit , the Inner life , Is the principle thing
In us. I am sure that God Intends good
to come to us through our sorrows. I am
sure sorrow brings nil people nearer to
heaven and settles forever the heart's belief
In the reality of that unseen world. The
avowed agnostic may scoff at the things
that are unseen while he In In the usual
buoyancy of spirit ; but when he stands be
side the cold form of a loved one he can
not scoff , he tempers his self assurance and
says "If there Is a heaven , she Is there. "
Grief banishes from the human heart the
folly which says there Is no God , no heaven.
Sorrow brings us to say , "There Is , there
must be a better world than this , for my
whole nature demands It. "
