Krom now on tlicro will he no grnss taking root under tho feet of the patriots who are anxious to serve the people. For the republican shrievalty nomination there arc at least a dozen randldates, active snd passive. Nearly every ward In the city presents one or two candidates and South Omaha comes forth with a brace, rt. A. Corncer and N. 1'. Swanson are Second warders whose names have been mentioned In connection with the shriev alty, Mr. Corncer, who has gathered honors fiom service In the state legislature, Is not mi active candidate, but his friends have kept him well la the public eye, nevertheless. Mr, Swanson has given the public a sample of his ability as a public Jii'rvant in tho coroner's olllcc nnd It Is whlbpcrcd that he Is willing to officiate at the Inquest on John Power's political en ivor. Thii front (lie l'uiirlli. The Fourth ward presents Frank Handle nnd George, Nicholson. Handle Is a veteran of the diamond, having caught many a brilliant game, although he has never be Yore attempted to slide the political bases. Nicholson, so It Is said, Is not making nny uffort In his own behalf and Is not a candidate In the true sense. Leroy K. Lucas, who has for some years led a busy life dealing In roal and who lives In tho Fifth ward, where he has been nctlve In ward politics, Is one of the most aiggrcsslvo hustlers for the nomination. Ills cards, proclaiming that he will make tho rnco for sheriff If given a start by tho republican convention, nro already being distributed. In tho Seventh ward a candidate Is found In the person of John Grant, well known ns n paving contractor, and tho ttlghth ward offers tho name of James Allan, present deputy United States marshal. Mr. Allan has been In the public service for more thun a few years, having been a member of the legislature, a rensus-takcr ns well as a city sidewalk Inspector. Oeorgo C.

Miles Mitchell Is tho present chlof of po lice In the packing bouse town nnd this s not the first time he has had an eyo to tho county building. Just to make up nn even dozen candidates for tho shrievalty nnmlnatlnu tho friends of Ed Peterson nf the Ulghth ward have iut his name Into circulation. Peterson trlod for tho nomination two years ngo, but failed. For county Judge It Is customary to re nominate the Incumbent for a second term and Judge Vinbonhaler Is therefore In lino us n candidate with excellent prospects. Ho Is not without opposition, however, two other candidates for tho nomination having put In nn nppearanco. 1). F.

The forty-tlfth nnnual session of the Grand Tabernacle of Galilean Fishermen, n colored organization, will be held In Galilean temple In this city beginning Tuesday morning. A large number of delegates ure rxpected, arrangements having been made for those from Virginia, West Virginia nnd through out the south nnd west. Said in Flosvem for the Llvlntr, Rev. Edward F. Trcfz preached tho doc trine of un3Clfl3hncss from tho pulpit of KounUo Memorial church yesterday, tho subject of his sermon, "Flowers for tbo Living," Indicating the drift of his re marks. In substance bo said: "This old world Is not crying for new Ideus, It Is not wanting Inventive genius and creative power. It Is not lacking In en terprise and progress, but what It sorely lacks Is a diffusion of kindness and sym pathy. Tho world Is some better than It was a century ago and much better than It was centuries ago. In tho early ycais of tho world's existence Its great achieve ments were accomplished through tho power of physical'' force, and ns the centuries passed tho great Intellectual forco came Into play. Tho addition of mental force to physical powers ha6 by no means per fected tho human race; what Is needed Is the addition of kindness nnd sympathy. "Man Is gold mad becauso ho Is power mad. Ho Is not after gold for the gold It self, but for the power that It gives him among his fellnwmen. Aud how many who nchlovo this power know how to use It? True, wo hnvo secured through the asilst nnco of men who have succeeded In the mad rush for gold our homes for orphanB, tho aged, tho disabled our hospitals' nnd asy lums and many other Institutions for the caro of unfortunato human beings. TIito are charitable Institutions for the men who work themselves to disability In our great Industrial shops, 'nnd for tholr children there aro also retreats. Hut bow much bet 'tcr tho head of a great Industrial enter prise would uso his power and servo his Master If ho would arrange his wago sched ule so to put his workman In condition to care for himself nnd his children. Such an arrangement would bring better results than all tho hospitals and asylums that wealth can ever build." DniiKer In the Path, Rov. Frederick W. Long of Oswego, III., supplied the pulpit of St. Mary's Avcnua Congregational church yesterday, In tho ab sence of Dr. C. S. Sargent. His morning discourse wns a review of the dangers which threnton tho church and mako Christian Ufa difficult. "Thpro was a time," said tho preach'r, "when all science was held to bo at war with tho teaching of tho church and I bo Ulble, But it is not so at present. The most eminent scientists of the day are rol lout era of Jesus Christ and ovolutlon has come to be regarded as an explanation of how God developed tho world am) Its lu habltants. "At times In the world's history doctrines have been promulgated which threatened to overthrow the teachings of tho Bible, but It L1KISCER GALLERY REOPENS Fublio Oats First Glimpu of 0itmi Brought Back from Eirp. VENUS, BY RUBENS, IS MOST VALUABLE "Itrturn of .VprlnK," ThrotiKli Which a t'lmlr Wns Ttn'wn by nn Ouiiiha I'll mm tie, Is In the Col lection. Llnlngcr's art gallery was opened Sunday morning for tho general public, after being closed for several weeks to permit the hanging of pictures secured by Mr. Unluger on his recent visit to Europe, and the re alignment and renovation of the other pic tures In tho gallery. The hanging of tho ennvascs has been greatly Improved and the light now falls upon them almost per fectly, although It Is practically Impossible to bring out all points of each picture In nny gallery of this kind, Of the new pictures thcro are thirteen oil paintings and three water colors. The most Interesting of the new pictures to Omaha people Is tho repaired "Return of Spring," tho llougurcau whose fate In this city a few years ago made Omnha famous In art schools for several years. Tho painting has been fully restored nnd the marks of the chair thrown by the fanntlc are hardly dis cernible. It hangs In good light on tho east wall of the gallery and nttracted conslder ablo attention from those who were at tho gallery Sunday, all of whom seemed to have a personal Interest In Inspecting the el dences of tho torn eanvns. Mutcrplcee l Ittlhciifi. Probably the most valuable of the nuw pictures Is a Venus by P.ubena, which Is considered an excellent exumplo of that master's art. The treatment Is far from conventional, this Venus, surrounded by loves, being scon In a canopied chamber, re clining upon a tapestried couch. , A gem by Mclssonler Is a cavalier mounted upon a charger. It hangs near the "Coming of Spring." There are two pictures by the Italian painter, Forth Tho larger Is a scene from the "Last Days of Pompeii" Mldla, the blind girl, nt tho well. Another is a con ventional trcntmcnt of a Roman maiden In a garden. Tho first picture hangs on the southern wall, west of the door, while the other hangs on tho same wall east of the door. A landscape by an American artlat, Gross, who has found favor nnd fortuue, Is of particular Interest and the observer will Imnglnc that the painter has woven Into what would be considered a typical treat ment of u European scene a thought sug gested by his former life in America for there Is undoubtedly a suggestion of life on some American stream In tho painting. Good coloring nnd technique nro shown In paintings by Flameng's "Garden Scene in tho Time of the Empire." Rlvas' "Libations of the Vestals," Speulttl's "The Proposal," Znffoll's "Reception to tho Cardinal" nnd Tlpolla's "Tho Caller." A mall palntlns by Perbovre, "The Chasseur," will excite favorable comment. Sketch In Witter Colors, Of tho water colors, "Tho Mouse," by U. Grota, shows a state of affairs often recorded by the professional punsters, with women standing on couches and chairs, a mousetrap In the center of the floor from which a cat Is striving to draw the unwill ing occupant. The treatment Is good and the humor contagious. An Itnllan street scene by Lorla brings up a picture of beg gars and princes, artists and artisans mingled in a confusion only possible In a holiday land, "The Seller of Ruga" Is a conventional treatment of an oriental scene by Slmonettt. , Taken all In all, the additions to tho gallery are very creditable and go a great way to rounding out a line collection. The process of renovntlng and Improving tho gallery Is not complete and Mr. 1,1 nlngcr expects to do considerable work upon It In tho next two wcoks. A showcaoe will be placed In the center of tho room, where will be displayed many of the fine speci mens of Ivory cnrvlng secured by Mr. IA nlnger on hU recent trip. Among these are some rnre specimens of tho work of tho Sixteenth century, which nt this time have not been shown. They consist of horns,' mugs, plaques and vases of Inimitable workmanship. Ono of tho plaques which will be displayed Is of rock crystal cut to exceptional thinness and mounted with copper. On each of tho copper ends are the Pulpit Is not so today. The Bible has withstood all attacks and stands more firmly entrenched than over before In the hearts of God's peo ple. The danger of this century Res, not without, but within the church. The num ber of professing Christians Is large, but they are allowing worldllncss to Interfere with their religious duties. "Tho deceit of wealth, lust and the cares of tho world may be named as the three dangers which work against tho members of modern churches. The greatest of these dangers Is enre. People worry over trifles and have their minds so filled with trivial affairs that they do not find time to study God's work and carry out Ills bidding." FnlthriilueNM to Duty. Rev. J. J. Parker of Kearney preached at tho First Congregational church Sunday morning In tho absence of Rev. II. C. Her ring, the pastor, who Is now upon n vaca tion. The theme of tho sormon was, God's bless ing Is upon the man who does the duty God assigns him," the minister taking his text from the life of Joseph, son of Jacob. He reviewed te llfo of the early Israelite as given In the scriptures and from the his tory drew tho following deductions- "The way of God In developing tho char acter of man Is ns definite ns the growth of animal or vegetable matter, but the experi ences through which each Individual must pass depend upon the native attributes of tho Individual. "The germ of genius Is In the Infant'j mind, and ennnot bo instilled by teachers nnd is not miraculously Implanted by Ood upon Important occasions. The blessing re ceived by Joseph wns the result of his will ingness to fulfill all duties, whother It was as n slave In the prison or as governor in the palace. The blessings of God eonslst qf the nbllity to discern the golden oppor tunity, clearheadedness in time nf general excitement and cool Judgment, which takes advantage of all means for success." Prnjiiin (or Itnln. Rev. D. K. Tlndall of Trinity Methodist church spoke In part as follows last night: "My text Is found In Second Chronicles, 7:13. I take for my themo. 'Is It Worth While to Pray for Rain?' Somo Christian peoplo and oven some ministers of the gospel nro skeptical about praying for rain. They toll us they do not believe In calling on God In straits or closo places; that It Is unbecoming. But tho poor sinners of earth aro so often In straits and need to pray for help. Very few hnve their praying all up-to-date, much lees ahead. Tho dying thief was In a close place when fio prayed nnd his prayer wns nnswered. Saul of Tarsus was In a wretched strait when he prayed for salva tion nnd bis prayer was answered. Tho set Jewels and the figures of mythological subjects are Interspersed along the mount ings, alternating with gems ac pearls, t'lirlnsltlr from li-nuii. In this display will be several specimens of Vienna ware, one piece showing the head of Maria Theresa, surrounded by the heads of kings, princes and generals of Austria. This Is a piece of old Vienna. In modern Vienna waro will bo shown the heads of tho Llnlngcr family made while Mr. I.I nlnger and his party were In Vienna. Tlu work Is remarkably clear, the likenesses good and the decorations said to be the best of the work of contemporary deco rators of this ware. One of the chief of the new articles secured by Mr. Llnlngcr on this trip to Europe Is a specimen of Limoges' work, enamel upon copper. This specimen shows a treatment of the "Via Cruces." with figures of Francis I of France and a princess of the house kneeling in adoration. This is believed to have been the work of contem poraries of the king represented nnd Is an exceedingly rare specimen, When the gallery Is completely arrange-1 Mr. Llnlngcr will begin to arrange the specimens In the public library. Among theso are somo of the rarest specimens of the printer's nrt, Including a fragment of ono of the first bibles printed by Guten berg, pnpyrus from Egypt, parchments from different parts of the Orient, Including Hebrew manuscript discovered recently nt Jerusalem.

Brief Extracts from Sunday Sermons. sarao Is true of the Phllllpplan Jailer, tho converto of "Pentccret and of all sinners who come to God for deliverance. God docs not refuse us lecause we have waited till In a closo plate; He Is glad to havs us come to Him it any time. It would hnvo been bettor ,'for tho Prodigal Son had ho como hono sooner yea, had ho never left his flther's bouse but his father received hin with open arms nil tho same. So our saving Heavenly Father Is over ready to recolvo us. The people nnd land wero r great straits when Elijah prayed for rain, but Ood heard tho prnycr nnd sent rain. Mosra was In a great strait who; thero wero mountains on either side of Israel, tho Red, sea In front and Pharaoj and his hosts In tho rear, hut ho crlei'to Ood for deliverance nnd It came. Soup object to praying for rain for the reasca that It seems to mako God simply a con-jnlence. Ah! let us not bo nfrald of uslnf) God when needed, nnd that Is always. Tils Is a trick of tho devil. God Is Just waltlig to do somo nice thing for us all. He javo Ills Son to dlo for us for our eonvcllenco from sin. Somo tell us we had Utter be digging Irriga tion ditches than, praying for rnln. It occurs to me that ly the tlmo all the hills and valleys of ttsj great western plains aro Irrigated someone will need to pray for rain. Wo are told by somo good peo ple that If wo llu'd right God would see that we had pleny of rnln. Ah! if wo only did! Hut wh does or over did live as they ought? Had Adam not sinned things would have been all right, but ho sinned. We must .eal with things ns they are. Pray for tcnporal blessings nnd for rain? Yes, ecrtaf.ly. Look at tho lllus trlous examples ofthe bible. Hczeklah's llfo was spared nrl his years lengthened In answer to prnyej In answer to prayer Elijah had both a trout h and rain to come upon the earth. Ibid tho following scrip ture: I Samuel, t:10; I Kings, 28:42; II Chronicles, 0t26 II Chronicles, 7:13; Zncharlah, 101, nn James, 5:17. If wo bcllevo the bible must bcllovo God encourages His peode to pray for tern poral blessings nmjfor rain. Ood rules tho universe. Ho h not so made it as to preclude the posstuilty of His Interfer ence. Prayer nnd 'miracles woro taken Into tho account hen the worlds were iuuivu ui nun. Liu ihw may tie over come by another la higher and stronger. In walking gravlta s overcome, but not not law; a nerson. Lvery step wo tak' lion's law upon us broken. God rules not a thing. Nebiska Is governed bv men according to Inf. but It is not ruled by law, The unlver Is ruled by God ac cording to law, bu not by law.
