'lth the exception of a few bymn tung
by the conurbation, lea by Mr. Will Ste
vcns, with E. H. Packard aa organist, the
First Methodist church, usually so opulent
in melody and aound, had no music yea
terday morning. True to his word, MuBlcal
Director Kelly and hla choir failed to ap
pear and the big loft held only a large
collection of empty chairs. Whether be
cause of the light snow and gray sky or
because of the absence of Mr. Kelly's choir
was Impossible to tell, but the atteudance
was somewhat less than usual.
After the services groups of the more
prominent men and women of the church
stood for a long time conversing on a
single topic the absence of the regular
music service and tba dictum of Musical
Director Kelly, that either the janitor or
himself must go. Two general sentiments
were expressed that Mr. Kelly and the
choir must be retained, even though Janitor
Innea be forced out, and that the director
deserved a lot of censure for leaving the
church without music. To an extent most
of the congregation has taken sides, but
only to a comparative degree, both holding
the tenet that Kelly is too precious to lose,
even though he Is a man of "moods."
Expert HcnaeIllatlon.
When asked If the absence of the vested
choir had been seriously missed yesterday
morning various members of the church
replied: "No, I think we got along very
nicely. Don't youT Still, It would be
hardly the thing every Sunday. But t
think the whole affair will be smoothed
over and there will be no change."
One of the women ealdi "I don't blame
Mr. Kelly a bit. Supposing the board of
trustees had become displeased with blm.
Do you think they would have given him
a hearing before relieving him? Well, I
should say not. There Isn't any question
but that the Janitor exceeded his author
ity." Another member of the church, a man
who Is otre of the leading supports, de
clared: "Mr. Kelly must remain and the
Janitor must go. It Is no more than right
that be should be discharged. The ma
jority of the board of trustees thinks so
now, and there will be a meeting this week
to decide the matter."
The pastor, Rev. E. Combte Smith, was
Inclined to view the whole affair rather
humorously and said he felt sure that mat
ters would be adjusted to the satisfaction
of all concerned. Some few of the leading
churchmen are decidedly sore, but one of
them said: "This thing has happened be
fore, and may happen again. I don't ap
prehend very much from the present
crisis."
KImS OX SCOPE OP RELIGIOX.
t ,
Says Salvation ia Given I'nder Grace,
Not Thronah Compulsion.
Rev. Luther M. Kuhns spoke on the
"Scope of Religion" at Grace Lutheran
church yesterday morning. Taking for his
text the verse, "Through His name, who
soever belleveth In Him ehall receive re
mission of sins," Acts x, 43, he said that
God had provided for universal salvation.
"The purpose of all religion, that believes
In Christ, Is the follqwlng out of this di
vine decree of God which grant remission
of tin through I)is namo," averred the
speaker. "To every one the choice of ac
cepting this decree la free. The Idea U
that salvation la given under grace and
not through compulsion.
"God cornea to the heart as a potter to,
the clay and If be finds It susceptible to the
touch he moulds It and makes It over in
the light of his own grace. If your heart
or my heart contains a non-reslstlng nature
when God comes In touch with It, He in
stills In It a divine feeling.
"God has made provision for the at
tainment of sanctity through his name. To
many the cross Is a symbol that Is being
relegated to the past, but sanctity Is given
through the CbrlBt end by the way of the
cross. It is the secramental pledge of
mercy. Through it the blood of Jesus
Christ is sprinkled on the hearts of man
kind and, as In the days when the children
of Israel sprinkled blood on the doorposts
that the destroying angel iilght pass them
by,, so this blood of the Savior now causes
sin to pass by the hearts it is sprinkled
on as It is a pledge of grace-meaning
mercy.
"Men reach heaven on common ground
through common means, through the way
of Jesus Christ and the naerlflce of the
Father. Through the sorrows and tribu
lations of this world the heart Is cleansed.
If grace were not effected In the hearts of
mankind on earth there would be no saints
In heaven garbed In white robes. When
we realise that the blood of Jesus Christ
washes away tho sins of man, then faith
brings tho means of attaining sanctiBca
tlon." EILOGIZKS BISHOP WOHTHIXC.TOX.
Rev. Uartdsoa Talks of DlKaltarr'a
Past Work.
At St. Matthias church Rev. Philip Dav
idson took for his subject "The Mother
Church," from the gospel for Mid-Lent
8unday. In speaking of St. Matthias'
church, he said:
"Let me speak again of our beloved
bishop who built this church. It stands
here today as a witness of his unselfish
ness, of his love, for the church of God, of
bla devotion to the welfare of his dioceso
and of his faith in God. Generations to
come will be nourished by tbe bread of life
from this altar, which he erected after the
pattern of that altar upon which the spot
jess tamb Is offered before the throne of
Ood. His good works will bless the gen
erations to come. Is It not a thought to
arouse our affection and reverence, that
this Inheritance of sacred beauty has been
provided for us and our children by that
man, through God's grace.
"What Is to be the future of this church?
I mesn of this parish of our Holy Catholic
church. That depends to considerable ex
tent upon oursolves. In after years our
grand. unselOxh Bishop Worthlngton, who
gave hla time and money toward the erect
ing and maintaining of this church, will

SHOILD KEEP IN THE I.OVE OF GOD.
Iter. Hatch ftelterates that Favorite
Teat from Jade.
At Tlymouth Congregational church Sun
day morning Rev. F. A. Harehi the pastor,
preached, taking his text from the twentieth
chapter of Jude: "Keep yourselves In the
love of Ood." He said in part:
"This writer, like Peter In his second
epistle, cautioned the people against the
preachers of false doctrines, but here he
draws tbo contrast between the faithful
and those who taught error. Tou can live
on the miasmatic plains until you have
acquired fevers, and can only be cured by
going to the mountains. In the plains of
life tho soul Is affected by evil, which can
be thrown off only by recourse to the
mount of Ood'a love. Our opinion of men
will change. Those we trusted will be
found unworthy and those In whom we
have no confidence will prove themselves
the noblest types. We can know no man
until we can tell how he loves. Love ia
the best groundwork for a knowledge of
the world, and love Is the best ground
work for a knowledge of God. If we have
not known God's love we are Ignorant, In
deed. God's love always brings a desire
for self-communion; God'a love is the at
mosphere of life. Tho atmosphere In which
a child Is reared has much to do with his
disposition, and how few of us have a
continuous feeling of Ood'a presence and
love? In the universe there Is law, but
above and beyond the law Is the power of
the love of Ood. Jesus prays that His
disciples have a knowledge of the love of
God. Self-seeking and deceptive Jacob was
changed by the presence of Ood, and In the
burning bush the presence of Ood made
Moses a hero for all time. The critics have
tried to prove that two persons wrote the
book of Isaiah, but one part was written
through ordinary inspiration of prophesy,
while the other was written after Isaiah
knew Ood and His love.
"Ood asks from us the love of the peni
tent, the love of the child and the love
of the bride. The love of Ood Is the sure
Joy of declining years, and the best refuge
for the dismayed aoul. We cannot say
we love God unless we. love humanity and
are willing to show that love by our work
for our fellows."
WILLIAMS, SATS TO GIVE FREELY.
Foreign Missions Secretary Pleads at
Grace Baptist.
Rev. Henry Williams of Des Moines, dis
trict secretary for foreign missions, occu
pied the pulpit of Grace Baptist church, i.t
Tenth and Arbor streets, yesterday morn
ing by special appointment. The Initial
services were conducted by Rev. B. W.
Fellman, the regular pastor of the church.
Rev. Williams took for his-text: Exodus
13:31, "A pillar of cloud leads us." He
said: "The successful churches are tho
missionary churches. It was the Inspira
tion they received from doing missionary
work, especially foreign missionary work,
that brought tbe grace of God to them.
For did not Christ say to His disciples,
'Go ye Into all tbe world and preach the
gospel to every creature?' He did not aay
preach the 'law,' but preach the gospel.
That is the pillar of cloud that leads us.
If we believe tbe text as we read it we are
thrilled with delight. It was with Infinite
confidence that the Israelites followed the
pillar of cloud that led them out of Egyp
tian bondage. It God be for us, who can
be against us? God is the same today that
He was at the dawn of man's history. God
Is today leading His people to work in
foreign lands. How wonderful God leads.
He always leads the right way. Never
can we get a man to a sorrowing brother
until we get man to a suffering Christ.
The blood of the martyrs Is the seed of the
church. We love only as we give. True
love always sacrifices. It your church is
poor and struggling, tbe greater Is your
need to give to foreign evangelization. You
will receive a reflex benefit from it. It Is
God's way to show His works, that by
sacrifice must you show your sincerity,
and then Ood In His good time will re
ward you the greater for the sacrifice.
Such Is the history of struggling churches
such as yours, and, though you now have
a big work on your handa in building your
new church, you should not neglect your
foreign mission obligations. If you will
trust Ood, God will trust you."

MANUFACTURING IN THE WEST
Industries Follow Where ths Star of
Empire Leads.
ABUNDANT RAW MATERIAL TO WORK ON
t'neqaalled Ooportanltlea for Prosit
able Investment of Capital, Rhlll
ad Energy What Has
Been Done.
Bonds and Mortgages, a Chicago monthly,
discusses In the March number the growth
of manufacturing Industries In the middle
west and presents Instructive statistics
showing what has been done and what
may be done with capital and skill Intelli
gently directed. The abundance of raw
material now shipped to other points dis
tant from the source to be converted Into
manufacturing products Justifies the as
sertion that the west today affords un
equalled opportunities for the upbuilding
of profitable Industries. The paper, quoted
editorially, says:
While the west has been developing In
population and bas been endeavoring to
Inaugurate new methods of agriculture,
that It mlgbt be more certain of Ita crop
returns, It haa said little of its progress
In the art of making things. The manu
facturing Impulse that has accompanied
the production of raw material has worked
Its way ao quietly that It haa been ap
parently one of the minor evidences of tbe
progress in the western and northwestern
states. Yet 4t Is doubtful If there la to
day any one thing that Is of more Import
ance In the west's development than this.
The fact that It Is able to enter the manu
facturing lists and to keep Its people em
ployed at other things than the raising of
crops Is of vast value to Its ultimate
growth and the permanency of its business
conditions. .
Growth of the Manufacturing; Instinct.
The reasons for tbe west's movement In
this direction are found In the coming of
men accustomed to this life.' The towns
are filling up as well as the country and
the men who are making their bomea
therein are those with the manufacturing
instinct. Then there Is an Investment fund
In tho west that Is at the disposal of th
business men who are capable of handling
It and of utilizing the raw material that Is
so abundant. It Is ridiculous that the ranch
man of Dakota should send his hides to
Massachusetts and then pay freight on
them back again in the. form of shoes. - It
has been so proved, for one of the most
successful shoe factories In tbe nation is
In Minnesota while others are being lo
cated in other parts of the prairie region.
The breakfast food industry has been cen
tered In Michigan for several years; now
it is also becoming prominent In Minneap
olis, Omaha and Kansas City, where new
factories are probable this year. The wheat
and oats are grown at their door and can
be utilized cheaply. .
The northwest Is particularly Independ
ent In this. The fuel suppiy of the states
along the northern border la abundant, for
tbe furnishing of vast power; the rivers
of the atatea near the mountains are ready
to give the power to many mills; the tim
ber of the states farther west Is of such
quantity and quality as to make the de
velopment of the lumber Industry In all Its
forms of most profitable Investment. Al
ready these factors are being utilized and
tbe people are making themselves the arbi
ters of the new prosperity that bas come
to their section.
Money In Slant.
There Is plenty of money for this de
velopment. Not all of It la' In the west,
but a large portion is there. The cer
tainty of the large demand, all the time
growing larger as 4he population advances
by leapa and bounds through tbe constant
Influx of settlers, gives assurance that
there will be a market for the products
and the people who Invest. In the new
plants are tbe ones most familiar with
the conditions. In every town of any size
In the west some Industry Is taking root.
It may be nothing more than a broom fac
tory or a brickworks,, but it la aiding to
sorno extent In the new movement that Is
making tbe west rich and Is also making
it a rival to the east's long time supremacy
In such things.
How many realize that there are In tbe
western states, meaning those between tbe
Mississippi and the Rockies. 225,287 manu
factories with an aggregate capital of
$3,447,587,249 and an annual product of
15,252.311,029? This Includes borne of the
largest mills in the world, the packing
houses that are the wonder of this age
and other vast enterprises as well as many
that are of lesser account. In famed New
England, the borne of manufacturing, there
are only one-fourth as many establishments
aa In the west, with less than half the
capital invested and an annual product of
only two-fifths. Two decades ago the west
had practically none of thla vast manu
facturing Industry.
What Haa Been Done.
These are the states that have made tip
this splendid record:
Iowa. 14,189 establishments, $102,733,103
capital, $204,716,877 product.
Missouri. 18,764 establishments, $249,
888,581 capital. $385,493,784 product.
Minnesota, 11,112 establishments,. $86,827,
362 capital, $173,129,398 product.
Nebraska, 6.114 establishments, $71,982,187
capital, $143,990,000 product.
. South Dakota, 1,639 establishments, $7,
578,985 capital, $12,231,239 product.
Colorado, 3,570 establishments, $62,822,473
capital. $102,830,137 product.
North Dakota, 1,130 establishments, $5,
396.490' capital, $9,138,114 product
Magnificent as these figures are, they are
yet more Interesting when It Is remembered
that they show an Increase over the reports
of a decade ago of 50 to 200 per cent, and
the population has Increased In no such
large ratio. In other words, the people
have learned to make things and are doing
so to a larger extent than ever in their
history. It means that they will prove
more independent of the conditions else
where. Markets la the Orient.
Of course, this growing tendency brings
Into tbe west some new elements, such as
the complications of the labor movement
and the proper marketing of products. The
former is not yet great except In the rail
way circles and the latter will take care of
Itself so long aa the aettlement Is Increas
ing by hundreds of thousanda each year.
The opening of the Pacific coast to new
markets through the Orient la as yet more
In promise than in performance, but the
future will doubtless be fraught with
greater meaning and a larger scope for the
business growth and the Industrial devel
opment. The farmers and ranchmen will
get higher prices aa the cost of transpor
tation Is decreased and the worth of the
lands will Increase because of the proxim
ity of tbe farmer to a market. Ths manu
facturing west is not a dream; It la with ta
and. in the language of the country news
paper. Is "here to stay."

Cites the Constitution and gome
County Traasaresalon.
A member of the Real Estate exchange's
tax committee, who wss a prime mover
last year when the County Board of Equal
ization was In session, now expresses him
self as favorable to a low county ssscs
ment for 1903 and a consequently high levy
as a means of squaring accounts with tbe
railroads as . nearly as possible.
"The only obstacle to this," he said, "Is
that If the assessment la made low the
board may be forced to go over the 15-mlll
levy to raise money enough, and thereby
transgress the fifth section of Article Ix
of the constitution, which specifically says
that county authorities never shall assess
taxes the aggregate of which shall exceed
$1.60 per $100 valuation, unless authorized
by a vote of the people of the county.
They are Ignoring this stipulation in many
counties, but some time someone will start
a general fight on taxes, comprehended by
a greater levy than this, and then there
will be trouble."
COUNTY LOSES THE QUARTERS
Clerk Drexel Thinks Mate Should Pay
for I Be of Real on Manilas
Licenses.
County Clerk Drexel is of the opinion
that the state Is getting the better of the
county In the matter of revenue derived
from tho sale of hunting licenses. A
license to a resident sells for $1 and to a
nonresident for $10. Last year more than
800 licenses were Issued by the clerk of
Douglas county, yet the county received
no part of the money, though it was neces
sary for, the clerk's staff to Issue triplicate
receipts In each instance and stamp tbe
license with the clerk's seal. Clerk Drexrl
says there Is a provision of law that 25
centa must be charged for every paper on
which tbe seal Is used, and he Is wondering
why the state should not be obliged to pay
as others do. Had 25 cents been deducted
from the county's remittance to the stata
for every hunjLlng license issued last year
the county would have been gainer by $200.
A Convincing Answer,
Sickness la discouraging, and it Is not
surprising that persons who have been
more or less ailing with rheumatism for
several years, and who have failed to find
anything that would give permanent relief,
hesitate about trying a new remedy, how
ever highly it may be recommended. Then
is one argument, however, that often car
ries conviction -with It, viz: "If Chamber
lain's Pain Balm does not cure, you need
not pay for It." That is what Mr. E. P.
Origsby of Grigsby, Va., said to Mr. Trip
lett, one of bis customers who was troubled
with rheumatism in tbe small of his back.
The next weelt Mr. Trlplett was In and
said If he could not get another he would
not take $5.00 for that bottle of Chamber
lain's Pain Balm. The quick relief from
pain which this liniment affords Is alone
worth many times its cost.

GILLESPIE CHARGES FRAUD
1 Madron. County Resident is f irbting Bait
"BL0NDIE" CLARK MAY BE INVOLVED
Attorney for Defendant Is Try Ins; to
Hare F.x-f aaatahle Arrested on
Charge of Impersonating
an Officer.
Attorney Duffle of Madison. Neb., has
promised to secure within the next thirty
days evidence to prove that fraud has been
perpetrated, or Is to be perpetrated, upon
residents of Madison county, and Attorney
Alexander Altschuler of Omaha has prom
ised to secure In the same time evidence
to prove that the specific case cited by
Attorney Duffle Is without foundation an 1
that Duffle's client is merely seeking lo
avoid payment of a Just debt.
The promises were made In Justice rot
ter's court at Dundee,, Saturday, when Alt
schuler asked and secured a thirty days'
continuance of the hearing In the suit of
J. W. Dorsey to collect on a $125 note held
against James Gillespie of Madison county.
He made tho request when Olllesple filed
an affidavit that the note was a fraud.
If Attorney Duffle can prove to the court
the truth of all be haa alleged he may Cre
ate something of a sensation. It Is bis
story that some time ago a Dr. Sullivan
visited Madison county, Introduced him
self as an eminent physician representing
an extensive medical firm, and persuaded
some men afflicted with money and other
ailments to enter Into contracts for treat
ment. The bottom of the contracts. At
torney Duffle avers, were worded as prom
issory notes for $100 or more, and these
notes were detached and placed In the
hands of supposedly Innocent purchasers,
who were to collect them, the contracts
being allowed to go by the board.
Involves "Blondle" Clark. -
Fearing to attempt collection In Madison
county, Attorney Duffle ventures to de
clare, a conspiracy was entered into in
the case of Gillespie's note to make it pos
sible to bring the suit in Douglas county.
The namo of R. J. Thompson of Benson
was placed on the Gillespie note as that
of an endorser and Thompson made a de
fendant. As suit may be brought against
either of two defendants and the other de
fendant forced to appear where the hearing
Is, tbe result of this was to oblige Glllre
ple to come to 'Douglas county to defend.
In substantiation of his allegation that
this was a conspiracy, Attorney Duffle de
clares that there Is no R. J. Thompson
and that the name was a fictitious one
chosen for the purpose of the suit.
In this connection he brings "Biondie"
Clark Into the suit because Clark made a
return of having secured service of sum
mons on R. J. Thompson at Benson. DufTe
says he has an affidavit from County Clerk
Drexel to prove that Clark's term of office
as constable expired the 81 h of last Janu
ary, or some time prior to the date he
swore he served the summons. The Co
lumbus attorney has been to County At
torney English and asked tn latter to
look Into the matter with a view m prose
cuting Clark for impersonating an officer.
The prosecutor has done nothing In the
matter as yet, but feels some Interest in
the case in a general way because he haa
heard rumors of similar procedures In
Adams county and elsewhere over the state.
'The hearing Saturday in Justice Potter's
court, to which the case went on Duffle's
motion for a change of venue from Justice
Kubat's, did - not advance far before the
continuance was asked, but there was on
file the deposition of Gillespie's wife In
which ehe stated she had algned "a sheet
of paper longer than a note." Olllesple
denied ever having signed such a contract
with a knowledge of Its contents. Neither
Dorsey, the plaintiff nor R. J. Thompson,
the endorser, who haa been made a de
fendant, was In court, but Attorney Alt-
schuler said both were among the living
Inhabitants of tbe earth and that If nec
essary they would be present at the hear
ing thirty days hence.
