8 SERMONS ABOUT WASHINGTON Brrerl Ojnaba Preacher! Talk of Lift o the First President GIVE MANY REASONS FOR HIS SUCCESS H-r. J, tho M. Rom S"7 Control Was Mont lmportn Elfnmt la Washington's Great Character. The elements that combined In Georgo Washington to make him an almost per fect man were manured and discussed by Rev. John M. float at Central Inlted Pres byterian church Runday morning In his aermon on "The Making; of Washington." He placed gTeat emphasis on the self-control of the first president, and said In part: "This quality was due largely to the strong-willed mother who trained Wash ington aa a boy. It was chiefly by her ef forts that the lad ws taught the value and bject of all discipline self-control. When be gave up a career In the navy, though passionately fond of the sea, at the plead ings of his mother, he showed the begin ning of the self-government that stood him In good stead during the remainder of his life. He was able to control and Influence ethers because be bad complete mastery of self. "Washington was a man of strong body, of atrong will and of strong pension, all of which he learned to govern well befoio be left the parental roof. It la true that Waahlngton was not a man learned In books, but bis education of tbe will and the beart was almost Ideal. His powers of Observation were well developed young, and be learned out of doors what roost men absorb In libraries and in achoola. In the things that go to make a man Washington was well educated. "Providence always seemed to be es pecially kind to Washington and he was protected and shielded from physical dangers in a way that was almost mar velous. He seemed to bear a charmed life, and he could ascribe his good fortune only to the hand of Ood. A man of atrong religious nature, as evidenced In his ad dresses, state papers and orders to bis army, he was a devout worshiper In the Episcopal church. He avowee Christianity in an Infldel ago when our chief friend was Infldel France. "These things helped to shape the grand, herolo figure of the Waahlngton we know. They are the same Influence that go to ward shaping any man. The end may not be as glorious In the eyes of mankind aa , that achieved by Washington, but the re sults will be the same In a smaller sphere." GREATEST AMRRICAM CITIZEN. Dr. Tlndall Trlls . of Qualities that Made Washington. "Lessons From the Life of George Wash ington" was the theme of Dr. D. K. Tln dall at Trinity Methodist church. Taking bis text from tbe words, "But be that Is tbe greatest among you shall be your serv ant," he said In part: "Washington, by doing more for tbe peo ple of the country than any other mao, be came the greatest American citizen. He was well born. When Ood desires a man for a particular place he begins to prepare blm a hundred years before he is born, and ao it was with Washington. He was by bis birth and environment peculiarly fitted for tbe position he was to create and main tain. Ha was In a degree an aristocrat, a member of the gentry, a cavalier, posses sing the virtues of that people, and came from a rank which Inspired confidence, aa It was a rank which bad produced great man, both In this country and In England. I am glad that In this couptry there Is an opportunity for tbe poor and lowly porn that a n.an mar leave the shoemakers' bench and become a aenator; that another man may lay aside tbe rall-spllttcr's maul and become president, but I am also glad that a man possessing money and advan tages from his youth may receive the high est honor In the gift of the people, and such a man was Washington. "Washington was not onlr a man of great mental and physical powers, but be was a man of spirituality, of, splendid attain ments. . He conquered an Irritable disposi tion while yet a young mtn, and in doing ao won the greatest victory of bis life. When I look upon his picture I seem to aee a similarity between bis placid face and what must have been the appearance of the aea of Galilee after the Saviour had caused It to be still the greatest peace with atrong force In Its depths. "Washington waa not a specialist. He was not a statesman like Jefferson or Ham ilton; not an orator like the elder Adams or Webster; not a philosopher nor a gmius like Benjamin Franklin, but be was a safe man a man of rare common sense and good Judgment, who could bo trusted to do about the right thing in any place. He possessed more than any one man those qualities which the American people con-' alder typical of the race." Bl.KS STATIONS UP TUB CROSS, Foarteen Beaatlful Figure at Church ' of Snered Heart. At the Sacred Heart church Sunday even Ing the new stations of the cro were bleaaed. Father Theobald, O. F. M., offlc! atlng priest. The new stations are beau tlful works of art presented to the church by fourteen families of tbe parUh. Father Theobald preached tbe sermon, In which he said that meditation upon the paasion and death of the Saviour, aa shown In the stations, will give one a greater love for hla neighbor aa be contemplates tha sacri fices of Jesus for all men, and will give one a greater hatred of sin as he sees tbe severe penalty exacted by God. The church was filled with people from all parts ot the city. The assisting priests were Father John Jeanett, Father Charles Mugan, Fa ther Jamea Aheara and Father P. J. Judge, tbe pan tor. HIS ISFMKISCK STILI, WITH VS. Rev. Beelea Sara Power ot Washing ton Lives Today, At Immanuel Baptist church Rev, Rob ert Kerr Ecclcs preached from tbe tbeme, "February !2; Ita Memories and Lessons." Despite the generic title Dr. Series drew all hie thought a and deductions directly from tbe being of George Waahlngton as a foun ts luhead, and aaid In part: "Tbe Influence of thla man over thla nation from that day to this bas been re markable. Hla name alone, bis mere face, la possessed of a vast power over us all, from tbe children up.

Think what a grand Influence It la for our boys when they look at that calm, large, strong face, sweet and beautiful. They can not do better than to take the father of their country for a model. "Washington was the savior of bis coun try, peculiarly fitted by birth, by education and by natural Inherent ability to accom plish what he did. But there Is One greater. He who loved us and gave His life to save us. By the love and rever ence you bear Washington love and rever ence Him who saved Washington and you." ORGANIZED LABOR AFFAIRS Freight Handler' Inlon Holds Mass Meetlntr ta Interest 5on Membera. A mass meeting of the Freight Htndlers' union was held at Labor Temple bunday afternoon, at which several hundred men were present. hTe meeting was called for he purpose of Interesting non-members In he organization. Addressee were made by H. Hales, organizer of the Retail Clerks' union, W. H. Bell, president of the Cen- ral Labor union, and W. H. Dech of Ithaca, Neb. Mr. lech waa at one time a leader in the Knights of Labor In the state and was candidate of the populist party In 1890 for lleutentant governor, after having been n tbe legislature two terms. He spoke along Industrial lines. Several new names were enrolled upon the list of members as the result of the meeting. A meeting of the Railway Clerks' union was held at Labor Temple yesterday aft ernoon, at which a dozen or more names were enrolled on the list of members. This union Is holding Its sessions quietly at present. It being tbe desire of the local and national officers to secure as large a membership as possible before any demon stration Is made by the union. In regard to the reported discharge of persons be cause of membership in the union the In terested pa-tles would say nothing, all questions being answered by the statement that the headquarters of the national union had been informed of tbe Omaha sl'.uatlon and that pending a report from tbe national local officers and members would eay noth- ng for publication. For the same reason the names of the officers elected would not be made public. The arbitration committee held session Sunday afternoon to try to reach a settle ment of the trouble between the team drivers' union and the union of team own ers. When the latter union applied for admission Into the Central Labor union last week the team drivers filed protest, claim ing that the team owners' was an associa tion of employeia. The team owners Bay that no man is eligible to their organiza tion who does not regularly work as a team driver, no matter how many teams he may own and that they are as much en titled to representation In 'he Central Labor onion aa the team drivers. DOCTOR STONE ON CREMATION gays He Believes Living? Suffer Harm Because of Earth I Burials. At the regular meeting of the Philo sophical society Sunday afternoon Robert M. Stone, A. M., M. D., read by special re quest a paper on "Cremation," wnlca ne presented to tbe section on state medicine at the fifteenth annual meeting of tbe American Medican association, held at Col umbus, O., June 8-9, 1899. The paper waa a complete exposition of the subject, treating It from all its sides, telling of tbe history of cremation and of Ita advantages, rehearsing the objections to It, Including the sentimental, and detail ing lta performance and the good it ac complishes. It treated of the problems of whether It waa best to bury the dead. whether the living suffer barm because of earth burial, whether there waa any good reason for a custom so long and unlver sally established and whether there were any good reasons why some other method should be adopted, denying the first, affirm ing the second, denying the third and af firming the last. Regarding the sentimental feature. Dr. Stone said: "I am firmly convinced that this substi tution of sentiment, from tbe grave to the urn, thla recognition that the urn with its ashes renders Its home tacred, will sooner or later be accepted and will reeult in the transfer of our holy regard from tbe grave to tbe urn, also, beautified with constantly changed flowers, and result In the adoption of cremation by thinking, cultured people ot all communities." HAIR H ATl'R ALLY ABITDAT. When It la Free ot Deasrafl, It Grows Laxurtantly. Hair preparations and dandruff cures, aa a rule, are sticky or Irritating affairs that do no earthly good. Hair, when not dis eased, growa naturally luxuriantly. Dan druff is the cause of nine-tenths of all hair trouble, and dandruff Is caused by a germ. The only way to cure dandruff Is to kill the germ, and, so far, the only hair preparation that will positively de stroy that germ fas Newbro's Herplctde absolutely harmless, frea from grease, sediment, dye matter or dangerous druga.

DISCUSSES PRESENT SOCIAL CONDITIONS Rrarrrta that o Many Persons Are Relying Altogether on lntelleetnal t'nltnre to Make Human Beings Good. In the Catholic churches of the diocese of Omaha Sunday morning at each eervice was read the Lenten pastoral letter of Bishop Scannell, In which the bishop dwells at length upon the observance of Sunday and holy days of obligation, the sacrament of matrimony and social progress. On the first subject he says in part: The aesietlng at mass on the days ap pointed Is for Catholics a public profession of faith. Kvery outward act of religion is Indeed a profesfion of faith, but many acts of religion need have no witnesses, and some of them bind only at considerable Intervals of time; whereas assleting at Diana Is always a public act and It la of obligation at least once a week. In truth. It Is the one act that notably distinguishes Catnollcs from non-Catholics. To say of a man that he never misses mass does not Indeed mean everything, but It means a great deal, for It means this much, that he makes public profession of his faith. On the other hand, to say of a man that he Is careless about hearing mass Is to say that he attaches little Importance to re ligion; while to say of him that he no longer goes to mass means In the public mind that he Is no longer a Catholic. Only weighty reasons, therefore, will ex cuse from an obligation that Is so grave in the sight of Ood and that means so much In the eyes of men. Sacrament of Matrimony. On the second subject be says in part: I beg to call your attention to the great Importance of observing all the laws which regard the sacrament of matrimony. These laws have for their Immediate purpose the safeguarding the sanctity of Christian marriage, and the unity and stability of the Christian family. The family Is the foundation of civil society and they who Ignore the sanctity of the marriage rela tion, or deny the stability of the marriage bond, strike at the very foundation of society Itself. We live at a time when very lax views prevail regarding the na ture of the marriage contract and the ob ligations which It creates, while the prac tice of many persons Is still worse even than their views. The laws of the church In the matter of marriage were made both for the good of society and for the good ot the individual, and they should be faithfully observed. It Is true that the church can, like any other lawmaking authority, dispense from her own laws; but her children should not ask her to do so, except In very rare and ex ceptional cases and for the very gravest reasons. Marriages between Catholics and non-Catholics, marriages between relative whether they be related by blood or by a former marriage and other marriages which It Is not neceasary to mention here, are forbidden by the church. All good Catholics will, aa a general rule, avoid such marriages; they will not even dis cuss with themselves the possibility of such a marriage in their own case, I need not remind you that, while the church can dispense from her own laws, she cannot dispense from the divine law. She cannot, therefore, break the bond of a perfect Christian marriage, which the divine law declares to be Indissoluble. On Intellectual Cnltore. Or) the subject of socialism and social conditions be says. In part: It has always been the professed aim of statesmen, philanthropists and educators to make men good, so that they may be law abiding and happy. It Is much to ba regretted, however, that so many persons are now relying alto gether on Intellectual culture for thla pur pose. They advocate intellectual culture as an Infallible means, and the on'.y means, of making people good and happy. In deed, it may be said that this advocacy has assumed In our day the character of a craze, and therefore, we need not be sur prised to find that it is doing mora harm than good to a good cause. The morality of the poor la usually of a higher order than that of the rich. In tellectual culture, leading to religious scep ticism and wealth, leading to high living and to an Impatience of moral restraint, makes 'difficult for men and women to be simple and obedient and faithful In the alght of Ood. Scepticism and unbelief al ways take their rise among the cultured classes and gradually find their way down among the people who are prone to imitate those above them. And as the people care nothing for that conventional decorum, which constitutes the respectability of the cultured classes, they follow nut . their . DrlnclDlea to their lOKlcal conclusions. They are now doing tbia in many countries, where socialistic movements menace tne estab lished orler of thlnars. And It Is a sig nificant fact that these movements have for one of their chief alms tne destruction or those very upper claasea whose teaching and example nave teen main.iv instrumental In producing the movements In question. Mission of the Church. Tha church ha been condemned by some because it does not consider It Its primary duty to point out to men the way that leads to amuence ana woriaiy success, it is not the mission of the cnurch to form business men. but to form good men, and that a good man is of more value In the eyes of Ood than all the rich m?n that have ever lived, who were not good. And a second answer to the charite Is that mod erh progress Is not all progress, for If it were the congress of the United States and the legislatures of many of the states would not now be aeeklng to destroy by legislation some of Its most salient leatures, on the ground mat tney are injurious to me best Interest ot manaina. Alter an, rest assured that no one will ever De an e to find a better way of making men contented and happy than by teaching them to "seek first the kingdom of Ood and His Justice.

Wash-day work that's wisely done Swifts p nde 4 To be bad oap at all grocery stores I buasQtr OnuU StLecJs Swift k Com GOVERNOR MICEEY TO MEN State's Chief Executive Addresses a Largs Audience at Kountze Church. CHRISTIAN CITIZENSHIP IS HIS TOPIC Says There Is Mistaken Idea la the Minds of Many that Liberty and License Are the Same. Kountze Memorial church bad no vacant seats to offer yesterday afternoon when Governor Mickey spoke on "Christian Cit izenship," at a patriotic meeting under the auspices of tf Young Men's Christian as sociation. The governor's address partook largely of the nature of a patriotic ser mon, held the audience, which waa com posed exclusively of men, at close atten tion and several times was Interrupted by applause. It was preceded by a song and prayer service. Special Invitations had been issued to Grand Army men and members of the Union Veteians' union, Millard and Thurston Rifles, Omaha Guards and tbe Loyal Legion, and each was well repre sented. The old soldiers, however, made the better showing. After the benediction had been pro nounced Governor Mickey stood at the chancel rail and clasped hands with 200 men, Including Mayor Moores and many ether well known citizens. Speaks with Feel In a:. There were times during the address when the governor appeared to be much affected. Particularly was this true when he was describing that the highest service a man can render to his brothers Is to be their servant, and declared that the only way a man In public office could do what was right Is to try with all his might to gel close to God, and to seek spiritual guld ance with all earnestness. The voice ot the speaker grew husky, and after he had diverted the seriousness of his worla by a well-turned bit of humor, many of the I oiq soldiers covertly reached for their handkerchiefs to dry their eyes. In part the governor said: "These are days which forcefully remind us of patriotism and of the sacrifices which have been made in securing and perpet uating civil liberty In this nation of ours. During the past four weeks we have ob served the birthdays of Lincoln and Mc Kinlcy and today our thoughts turn to ward the Father of his Country and we seek to gain some lessons from a life which Is a conspicuous example of the loftiest patriotism and whose most enduring monu ment is the esteem and reverence existing In the hearts of a liberty loving people. "It was the Rev. Joseph Cook who said, In 18S4: 'We will never have an Ideal re public until every active citizen Is an ac tive Christian and every active Christian la an active citizen.' I believe that this prin ciple is true. Every citizen should be a man; should love God, and should try to make this republic what God would have It and not what the politicians would have it. "Patriotism Is love for country and devo tion to Its institutions and principles. In earthly affairs it Is considered one of the highest traits of character. We strive to inculcate It In our children and we cher ish the memory of those who possessed H In a marked degree. But there Is another country toward which we are all fast has tening and of wbicb we hope to eventually become accepted citizens. In fact, the kingdom of God Is established bere upon earth that we may all have the knowledge of adoption Into ,lt. Demand Spiritual Patriotism. "This beavenly country demands of'us a spiritual patriotism, the counterpart of earthly patriotism. It would be of a more Intense and consuming character even as the Interests at stake are correspond ingly more Important. This patriotism la manifested by knowing and doing the will of our Father, which la in heaven. "There Is a mistaken Idea In the minds of many that liberty and license are one and the same thing that under the pretext of personal liberty one may be Justified in giving free rein to bis baser passions. On this assumption is predicated the argu ment in favor of the saloon, the open Sab bath and all other forms of Iniquity. It la simply a case where liberty la mistaken for license. The only person who can en Joy perfect liberty la the child ot God. The true child of Ood has no desire to do things which are Inconsistent with Christ's teachings and hence hie liberty of action la perfect and complete." Perfect Confidence. Where there used to be a feeling of un easiness and wonry In tbe household when a child showed symptoms of croup, there la now perfect confidence. This Is owing to the uniform success of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in the treatment of that disease. Mrs. M. I. Basford of Poolesvllle, Md., in speaking of her experience in the use of that remedy, says: "I have a world of confidence In Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, for I have used it with perfect success. My child Garland is subject to severe attacks of cfoup and It always gives him prompt relief." Announcements.
