pulse: but It Is the crand totnl. the out
come of all tho acts, Impulses and fccllugd
of tho life.
Character Is a tree of slow- growth. Its
roots strike back Into tho soli whence hu
man nature springs. Character Is a lifo
FeUl'ng Is In the grave. It Is no doubt gieatly
wnoso dawn is in tno crnule and wnoso
liilluencod by tho conditions to which we
may bo subjected, but not so entirely as
to destroy volition. When volition Is
either destroyed, or for nny reason ab
sent, tho moral quality drops out of char
acter. True character subdues nnd tri
umphs over ndverso surroundings. In tho
formation of diameter somo circumstances
of life may help and some may hurt; but
nfter all It Is a moral structure wrought
out of such materials as wo find at hand.
Character is not something which others
enn make for us.
Its germ must havo Its native homo
within our souls. Our teachers and preach
ers cannot Impart it. They may help us.
They may give us useful hints. They may
place tho right motives before our minds,
but they can do 110 more. Further nld In
thfs direction would be destructive of
moral stamina. I have said that charac
ter building Is n slow process. And so It
is. It but keens pace with tho life. Kach
moment of conscious existence Is adding
Its ouota to tno structuro or olinracter.
Kaeh act, word, aspiration, is but a con
tribution whoso net result Is chnrnctcr,
Not moro surely do the successlvo brick or
stono mark the progress of tho building
ihnn do the dally experiences of the life
indicate tho growth ami stylo or character.
And not moro surely Is the nrchltect com
petent to determine tho chnracter of tho
edifice, thnn nro wo to direct the forces of
lifo to a good or evil issue. The house Is
tho measure ot tho builder's capacity, anil
tho character Wo make will testify to tho
uso of tho menus pluced in our hands. God
wns undoubtedly In earnest when Ho mado
us. Ho took counsel of His own liifllnlta
wisdom when lie endowed us. He gave us
faculties which aro but transcripts of His
own divine attributes. Anil 110 says to
us! "Hero Is vour emnlrc of thought nnd
action. Occupy till I come." To change
tho figure: Hvery man should feel that he
is on tho ship and that he has embarked
upon a vovngo of eternal consequenco to
bis soul. Tho sea has been surveyed and
mapped. Its currents tiro understood. Its
shallows have been buoyed nnd tho lurk
lnir nlaces ot Its treacherous rocks are
known. Its winds and waves, its storms
and calms nre but tho obedient servants
of tho will: nnd If we fall to reach tho
port wo havo no ono to blame but our
selves.

SOUTH OEVlAilA NEWS. J
Tho annual nppralfrmcnt of proporty '
which commcni'fj Afirll 1 Is about e
pletcd and tho books of the four njsts.ois
will probably be lurikd In wiihln tho next
ftiw days. Asscisor'6u.or of tho KltBt ward
completed tits returns late Saturday night i
and 1hi 13 tho first ono to muko public his
figures. According to tho figured on Mr. I
litter's books tho lands In tho ward were '
MCMei, at 1,610. the per.onal property
at $131,730 and lots at $632,175, making a
total of JGSS.S15.
In 1899 the city assessment In this ward
was $021,077. Tho total turned In by As
sessor Kttcr shows an Increase in the ward
of $07,103. in the matter of corporations tho
total assessment In tho First ward In 109
was $12,000, whllo this year It Is $00,100,
an Increase of $23,600.
Tho corporations raised by tho assessor
are: The Omaha Street Hallway company,
thi Omaha Water Works company, thu
South Omaha National bank and tho Omalu
Gas company. While, lu 1S99 tho street
car company was assessed at $3,000, this
year It Is $8,200. Tho Omaha Water Works
company wps marked up last year at $1,3)0
and this year at $16,000. As for tho South
'"al1 ?Uo in"k' '"yT. ,n.x.?'
were paid on a valuation of $11,000, whllo
this year the figures show assessable prop
erty valuixl at $33,000. In 18'J9 the Omaha 1
Gas company was arscsscd $1,600; this year
$4,200.
Ono year ago thero was no assessment
on Union Pacific property rights In tho
First ward. Now Assessor Utter figures
that $2,000 Is about tho right amount. Tho
Thomson-Houston Klectrlc Light company
wna not counted In last yenr, but now Its
taxablo property Is booked nt $2,000.
in 1S99 tho total valuation wns $l,8i,
371.9S. Should thero bo a corresponding In
crenso In thu other three wards tho total
valuation will doubtless again reach tho
$2,000,000 mark.
