Their Priests anil Method
Most Change.
At All Paints' rhurch Sunday morning the
rectcr. Rev. T. J. Mackay, preached from
the theme, "Changed Relations of the
Christian Ministry." His text wan, "Not
that re have lordship over your faith, but
ore helpers of your Joy." Second Corinth
ianr.. 1-24. He said In part:
"Nathaniel Hawthorne In 'Twice Told
Tales' draw a vivid picture ct Parson
Hooper, whom he describes as going about
with a black .veil completely coerlng his
features and defying scrutiny. He wears
this veil constantly. In the house, on the
street, and in the pulpit. He can see others;
bo one can pierce behind the veil of mystery
which conceals him.
"This veiled parson furnishes a good Il
lustration of how the ministry was re
garded In time past. Whether It was the
rricst of the Roman church, clothed with
the mysterious powers of his office, or the
Troteatant parson, this same veil of mystery
ever surrounded him aa he moved among
hil people.
When All Deferred to Him.
"No other profession compared with this
In dignity and Importance. In time rf sick
ness the physician of the body might hold
Ms place by the bedside while hope of re
rovery remained, but that hope once gone,
to the priest belonged all that remained.
His duty It was to prepare the soul for Ita
great change, and establish beyond a doubt
Ita position and safety In the life to come.
"This was one of the reasons why the
tnlnlstry was so enshrouded In mystery;
another was the respect paid always to the
educated. In former days the clergyman
was the learned authority of the village.
The educational facilities so common to
all today were then unknown, and but few
conld hope for even English education.
"But whatever the reason that once
existed for this marked separation between
clergy and people, the separation exists no
.longer. To some extent It prevails perhaps
among the more Ignorant Romanists, but
ven there, owing to the rapid spread of In
telligence among the masses. It Is disap
pearing. Like all superstitions. It cannot
stand the light of awakened Intelligence,
'and Is bound, eventually, to pass away.
They Search Him, Now.
"The old time assent with which the
clergyman's utterances In the pulpit waa
recover!, and the old time reverence which
met him wherever he moved have given
way to a questioning and shifting spirit
in the one, and a respect as much for the
man as for Jhe office in the other. Mere
pretensions no longer serve as a veil for
the clergy, and. assumptions of priestly
dignity will not magnify the office of the
priest aa it once did, in days gone by.
"Truth, not expedience, must be the
motto of the minister of the new covenant,
He must mingle with his fellowmen aa
did bis Msster, Jesus Christ not afraid to
touch the lepers of society, not afraid to
rejoice at the marriage feast, or to be
called falsely, as He waa, a wine bibber and
gluttonous man."
BEV, YOST REPLIES TO REV. HILLIS
Tabes Issne -with Statement that Sell
i Love Is Dominant.
"Optimism" was the subject on which
Rev. Robert Tost preached at St. Mary's
Avenue Congregational church Sunday
morning. The sermon waa Inspired by a
statement of the Rev. Newell Dwlght Hu
lls, who, In preaching on "Making the Most
of Oneself," a dissertation later printed In
bis book, "A Man's Value to Society," said:
"Two great principles run through all so
ciety. First comes the principle of self
care and self-love."
To this statement, aa generally applied
to society. Rev. Yost took exception, and
in answer he preached from the text "For
me to live is Christ, to die Is gain," In
Fhllllplans. first chapter, twenty-first verse.
The central theme of the sermon was that
a self sacrificing life brings the greatest
Joy, as may be illustrated by a myriad ex
amples in each day's life. When Fsul
spoke the words of the text he waa afraid
of neither life nor death. Being willing to
face the responsibilities of either, he waa
an optimist. When a man attains a state
of such fearlessness he has arrived at
scientific optimism.
Man la naturally of the self-sacrificing
bent. He loses all the conceit of personal
accomplishments and pleasurea in the glam
our of one heroic act of unselfishness.
Though the theatre, the ball room and a
dosen resplendent parlors blase In Inviting
glory before the mother, she sits rather at
home with her baby In her arms, happier
In her self sacrifices, thought it cost her
life Itself.
LKT KO MAN SHIFT HIS BIRDEH,
Rer. Jenka Says Each Shonlo Snool
dor Ills Own Responsibilities.
"It Is a discredit for us to throw re
sponsibility for public evils onto the shoul
ders of public officials to try to make
scapegoats of our mayor or our other pub
lic administrators. Somebody must stsnd
for righteousness; if not Christians, who,
then?" demsnded Rsv. Edward Hart Jenks
la his 8unday morning aermon at the First
Presbyterian church on "The Avoidance of
Responsibility.".
"In the next election let us taks this
stand. Let us not say, 'We belong to ths
First Presbyterian church and are right
sous enough; let us keep apart,' but let us
stand boldly for righteousness. Let us
dedicate ouraalvss to the things that sr
right, remembering that one of ths secrets
of ths power of a moral man la his Inde
pendence. "Ever sine Adam blamed Eve and Eve
in turn accused the serpent, there has been
this tendency to shift blame. Aaron tried
to sxcuss himself for molding the golden
calf during Moses' long absence; Cain de
manded to know lr he was his brother's
keeper; Pllat washed his hands of Christ's

not spprove this shirking. The Saviour
tells us thst responsibility is according to
attainment. We are, then, given respon
sibility commensurate with our capacity
and It Is Just as much my duty to do all
that I ran as it Is some other man's, who
Is of greater learning and greater power."
REV. TI3DALL. ASKS FOR EVIDENCE.
He Wishes to Be Told Wherein the
Race Has Progressed.
Rev. D. K. Tlndall of Trinity Methodist
church, in his morning sermon, said In
part: "My text Is found In Hebrews vl, 1,
snd my theme Is, 'The Progress of the
Human Race.' Is it progressing physically?
What modern people have more strength
and endurance than had the ancient Egyp
tians? What giant of today la equal to
Goliath of Gath, not to mention Sampson
and David? Who lives as long as Me
thusalch? Does our civilization tend more
to strength or enervation?
"Is our race progressing mentally? Her
bert Spenser la not a greater philosopher
than Plato. No poet of the laat century
equals Homer; no sculptor surpasses
Phlllas; no orator equals Demosthenes, and
no songs or 'dramas excel those of the
Greeks, and certainly not those of David
and Job. What modern language Is better
than that of the ancient Greeks, the lan
guage Ood used as the best medium to
convey His great thoughts to men, snd the
language the schools of our day regard aa
worthy of all Imitation?
"Is ths race progressing In wealth? We
have our millionaires today, but they had
their Croesus In ancient times. There are
many rich nations today, but the Babylon
ian monarchy was so rich snd glorious as
to be represented by the head of gold in
Daniel's vision, snd Solomon's kingdom wss
so rich that silver and gold were aa plenti
ful for monetary purposes as the rocks
of the Judesn mountains were for archi
tectural uses.
"Is the race more religious? All men
worship at some altar everyone has his
Ood. DO we have our St. Pauls, St. Peters
snd houses of worship over all lands? Rome
had ltt Pantheon, Athena Its Parthenon
and Oreece its Olympus, snd Ephesus its
Dlans, and the multitudes gathered at
Mounts Genlgim and Ebal and Jerusalem
and Olympus. The Greeks and Romans
worshiped their myths, the Chaldeans the
heavens and the Egyptians every object of
nature.
"Ths progress of the race,' It would thus
sppear, has been largely in a circle, like
a man blindfolded, or lost, or -as did the
race at the tower of Babel. Sin is the
cause of all this. What It we are phys
ically strong, If we be not strong In the
Lord and in the power of His might?
What If we be mentally developed. It God
be not In all our thoughts? What if we
are rich In this world's goods. If we be
poor toward God? Suppose we do live In
splendor now, if we sre to wander in dark
ness hereafter? What if we are very re
ligious like the Athenians snd Pharisees; If
our righteousness does not exceed theirs,
w Will perish forever."
FORESTERS OFF FOR A FROLIC
Tralaload of Them Spend Snnday at
Picnic Oronnds Near
Plattsmonth.
It required six coaches to carry the crowd
of Foresters, the girls, the boys, the
lunches, the megaphones snd othsr neces
saries of a day on the grsen that went to
Plattsmouth Sunday morning to attend the
aecond annual picnic of the courta Ak-Sar-Beu
No. 3368 and Allemanla No. S026.
The start was made at 9:40 from the Bur
lington atation in a drlxzllng rain, which,
though It threatened to become a deluge,
did not in the least affect ths enthusiasm
of ths picnickers. The band of the order
from South Omaha furnished music for the
occasion and High Secretary Huston and
a half doien assistants did the spieling in
front of ths station, each declaring that
a atralght tip from the clerk of the weather
Indicated that Plattsmouth was dry.
While only about half of the expected
number lined up at the train, fully 450 were
present. The ball team from Council Bluffs
which was expected to do battle with
Plattsmouth failed to go, because the team
from Plattsmouth sent word thst playing
on Sunday was tabooed there.
The program for the day consisted of
races. In which men, women snd children
participated; standing broad jumps, hop-step-and-Jump,
bicycle races, a tug-ot-war
and the addreas of W. T. Williams, D. S. C.
R. Dancing continued throughout the day,
ths bsnd furnishing ths music. Prizes were
given to the winners of the contests.

Not SatlsBed with Cramhs Thrown
to Them from Democratic
Tsklt.
The populists of Douglas county are
entering objections to the ticket nominated
in ths Interests of harmony by E. E. How
ell Saturday. A prominent populist said:
"The ticket will not hold together. Hugh
F. Mcintosh will drsw off and leave that
place abaent. It was given out during the
session of the convention that Curtis waa a
populist, but he is a member of the Jack
aonlan club and calls himself a democrat.
This gives us but ons man on ths ticket
and he will resign. Unless ths commutes
Is better tbsn the convention waa there will
be a full populist ticket in ths field this fall
and wa will try the issue with ths men who
believe that they can deal with the populist
psrty as they see fit.
"Some of ths men on ths ticket will be
defeated anyway, as the populists cannot
stand for them. From a populist viewpoint
It seemed thst ths convention waa domi
nated by the reorganlzers in ths psrty. C.
C. Wright waa the chairman. lis Is cer
tainly a gold-standard democrat, and while
he may have voted for Bryan the last time
he will have to show us. George Martin Is
ths editor of the Mercury snd hss never
lost sn opportunity to slur Mr. Bryan. Do
you think that any aelf-respecttng populist
can vote for him? There will have to be
several resignations from thst ticket to
make It look good to populists and for one
I do not believe that any of them will re
sign." The populist nominating convention la
called to meet In September and there will
be nothing done by that party with ref
erence to ths county ticket until then.

MINING IN THE BLACK HILLS
Prospectors Are Active at Present in Several
New Fields in This 8sctior.
PARTICULARLY ENERGETIC IN KEYSTONE
Bear Golch anil Iron Creek, Close
to Deadwood, Arc Also Receiv
ing; More Than Isoal
Attention.
KETSTONE, 8. D., June M. (Special.)
Everyone owning ground In the district Is
doing something with it Just st present
and the work la showing up some pretty
good prospects. The Tycoon mill is run
ning on ore from the Ranger ground, and
the ore that Is being milled Is of the usual
high grade that is met with In the camp.
The company Is doing extensive develop
ment and prospecting work on Ita ground,
and the mill, which Is dropping ten stamps
every day. Is paying for the work that is
being done. The company Is working a
force of twenty-five men, snd ss It Is
getting out more ore than can be used up
In the mill, a whole lot of It Is being stored
snd will be held for shipment, as It la all
of better than the average, grade.
The Mount Etna company has a big
fores of men at work on the Lucky Boy
claim, and haa the shaft down 100 feet.
Ths Lucky Boy vein Is a continuation on
the southern end of the Keystone vein,
and the ore which Is now being takeu
out of the shaft Is a low grade, free
milling proposition, which has occasionally
very rich streaka running through It. The
vein at the 100-foot level is about thirty
five fet wide, at least It bss been crosscut
to that width, and the hanging wall has
not yet been met with.
The Holy Terror company, elnce It has
passed into the hands of the new manage
ment, is doing as well as It ever did.
President Hughes of the company Is at the
mine and giving the work his personsl
supervision. The mine Is in better shape
than It has been for the last three years
snd the rich ore that made the Terror the
most famoua small vein mine In the Black
Hills Is silll met with, while the sverage
grade of the ore Is much higher than that
taken from numerous rich mines. Ore Is
being taken from ths 1,000-foot level sod
from drifts which have been run in on the
vein below the 900-foot level. At this
depth the ore body Is a pretty blg one, and
from that level and the 1,000-foot the
ore which la milled Is all being taken at
the present time. The mill Is treating
eighty tons a day.
Prospecting; In Chllkoot.
Some good ground is being opened up In
the Chllkoot district, eight miles south of
this camp, and there are a good number of
men working. 8ome of the prospects have
had much work done upon them, but prob
ably on the Chllkoot group, from which
the district takes its name, the most work
haa been done, and its claims have been
better developed than have any of the
others. On this group a great deal of sur
face work has been done in the shape of
open cuts, besides a number of small tun
nels. There Is, however, one shaft which
Is down 200 feet snd from the bottom a
drift has been run on the vein for about
100 feet and a crosscut driven, which shows
ths vein to be twenty-five feet wide. The
ore is a cysnlde proposition and gives
assays ranging from $ to $60 a ton. Be
sides this vein, there is a smaller one,
which is also rebellloua In the character of
Its ore. Tbla vein haa been opened to a
considerable extent by the aurface work
spoken of snd It Is not known what It may
turn Into with depth. Assays from the ore
give very good returns. The property Is
owned by Thomas Blsir, who located it
about sixteen years ago and who haa held
onto It ever alnce. Besides this group
there are others being worked In the dis
trict, snd good prospecta are being re
ceived from the ores taken from them. It
has, however, only been of late that atten
tion has been given the mines here by
outside people, snd all of the work that
haa been done on them has been done by
small owners, so It has not received the
Av.ionment which Its importance aeservea
but it is now beginning to swaken and will
from now on receive Ita shara or wora.
Prospeoiors Are Aetlve.
DEADWOOD, S. D., June 22. (Special.)
Of late there has been considerable at
tention paid to the Bear gulch and Iron
creek districts, and in both of them aome
very good prospecta have been struck. In
ths Dear sulch district, especisiiy, ins
prospectors have been active, although
there are many properties on which much
work haa been opened up In that section
of the Hills. On Tuesday last there were
twenty-three locations filed from that Qis
trlct with the register of deeds In this
city. and since that time they
have averaged about ten a day.
It la aald that during the last win
ter several good atrikes had been made
In the district, but the fact of their dis
covery was kept quiet until a few weeks
ago, and alnce that time there has been a
little stsmpede of prospectors to the dis
trict snd many locatlona have been and are
being made. Last Friday 8tewart Thomp
aon, one of the best known mining men
In the Hills, left for Bear gulch, where
lie will take charge of the operations
which sre under way on the Connors group
of claims snd will sdd to the tores of
miners slready at work on the ground. This
group haa received considerable develop
ment work during the last three years, snd
a number of small vertlcsls have been
opened 'up on It, sll of them carrying a
good grade of ore, and some of them ore
that will assay very high. Ths present work
Is being prosecuted oa a four-toot vertical,
which at the surface gave some excellent
assays and which aa depth haa been at
tained haa grown better, and now at a
depth of eighty feet gives Indications of
growing wider and atronger. From this
point the shaft will bs carried down 160
feet further.
From the Iron creek district at least
eighty location certificates have been filed
within the last three weeks, snd ths pros
pector Is very much In evidence. The
same conditions exist in this district as
do In ths Bear gulch and the ground Is
being taken up very rapidly and there will
soon be none left to locate. While re
ports of rich finds in the district srs nu
merous, nothing aside from what has been
worked tor a number of years Is known,
but, nevertheless, the district Is receiv
ing more attention from the prospector at
the present time than any other part of the
Hills, so there must bs something upon
which to baas the reports. In the car
bonate district, also, there la a little riffle
of excitement, and the fact la emphasized
by ths filing of numerous locations from
that section. This district, however, has
been gone over very closely by the pros
pector and there Is but little vacant ground
in It at ths present time to locate.
Thursday sventng-the Black Hills Mining
Men's association held a very Interesting
meeting In this city and besides discussing
matters of business they listened to an
able paper which had been prepared by
John Randall, a mining man of experience,
on "Cyanide Practlcea."
Pillar l Oro.
GALENA. Juns 22. (Special.) Ths
Golden Crest people have been tsking out
a largs amount of good ore, which they
are piling ap, awaiting ths tims whoa ths
Burlington shall have extended Its narrow -gaugs
system far enough up Strawberry
gulch so that n may bs reached Iroaa ths
mine without making too grrst a haul.
The company has decided to erect a treat
ment plant of Ita own on Its ground, but If
the expense will not eat up all the profit
It will begin shipping ore within a week or
so to the Dead wood smelter. There Is a
big gang of men now working on four dif
ferent places on the property, and from
all of them good merchantable ore is being
taken.
George Bachmau, who hasa lease on the
Monarch mine, continues to ship a few tons
of ore every day to the Golden Reward
smelter In Deadwood, and the ore la aald
to be very rich, but as Mr. Bachman Is
working the mine himself he will not give
the exact figures. It must run very high,
howsver, ss he could not afford to have It
hauled fifteen miles In wagons over one of
the toughest trails' In the hills to have It
treated.
Looking; t P Tin Property.
HILL CITY, June 22. (Special.) Inter
est is being revived In tin mining in this
vicinity, and the outlook at the present
time Is for some extensive development
work in this direction being tnsugurated.
Last week Morris Moses, a wealthy New
York gentleman, who owns a large group
of claims In the vicinity of this camp, was
here, snd mads a thorough examination of
hta property, and when he left for New
York took with him a great many samples
of ore from different openings which were
made on his property several years ago be
fore the Harney Peak fiasco gave a black
eye to tin mining In this section. Mr.
Moses Is the sole owner of the property
and be says that should his examination
of the ground prove as satisfactory as he
believes It will he will at once put a big
force of men at work on the ground and
will endeavor to make It productive. Some
of the ore on his claims carries a high per
centage of casslterltes, and should pay
well to work. Mr. Moses was one of the
pioneer tin men of the district, and de
spite the fact that tin mining received a
severe blow through the questionable
methods of the Harney Peak outfit, he con
tinued the development of his ground until
sufficient work had been performed upon
It to get it patented, and since that time
he has been paying a good sum each year
in taxea on it. He was greatly Impressed
with the examination which he made of the
property, and as he Is a shrewd business
man will not allow his property to remain
unproductive.

BOGUS POLICEMAN FINDS JOY
Hat Inline the Brook In Poetry, It
Coold Not Ran on For
ever. M. J. McEatbron reveled In the garb
and authority of a policeman a few short
hours Saturday night and others will tell
of his doings In polics court this morning.
McEuthron's head bad been slightly turned
by the glittering star and the possibilities
of a police officer, and Incidentally by a
few sips at the Bowing bowl.
He hied himself to a saloon, where Offi
cer La hey keeps his raincoat and an old
helmet stored away for a rainy day, and
appropriated the outfit. Armed with a
short stick, be then went to a dance hall
In the Third ward and proceeded to awe
the assembled multitude. He made ths
mixer of drinks and the dancers do stunts
to bis. suggestions. The bartender finally
concluded the "graft" was too much even
for a policeman snd notified the station.
McEatbron was locked up and remained
in jail until released on bond Sunday after
noon. Publish your legal notices In Ths Weekly
