PALM SLNDW STILL LIVES
Commemorition of Jnui' Triumphal Entry
ia General.
OMAHA'S DEVOUT RICHLY REWARDED
Chnrehrs rrnld Special nlf
TOerompeaae for l.arae Altrnd-
anc Despite Infavorabl
Wmlbrr Conditions.
"On ths next dsy much people that were
oms to the leant, when they heard that
Jeiua was coming to Je:ui?lum. took
branches of palm tree and went forth to
meet Him. and rrled: 'Hosnnna: Cleared Is
the King of Israel that cometh In the nrnie
ot the Lord.' "
That wa nearly twenty centuries ago,
but the branches of palms still wave for
Him that cometh in the name of the Lord.
Commemoration of the day of HI triumphal
niry Into Jerusalem upon an bumble aas Is
as eonsclentlous and general as the com
memoration of that day a week later when
the stone was rolled away and Easter had
Its origin.
Devout Omaha filled Its cathedrals and
Its churches yesterday with the stalks of
the historic green, and "The I-amn,"
"Jerusalem" and "Oh, Ye That Love the
Lord" were In worshipful hearts, respon
sive to the gentle utterances of many sing
ers. Despite a wind that made naviga
tion difficult If not even hazardous, the
morning services were marked by unusually
large attendance and the audiences were
rewarded, almost without exception, with
apeclal music as well as with sermons in
spired by the utterances ot the doomed
King -of the Jews as He gazed down upon
a-city that was to crucify Him and reap
Its reward in a destruction that should
leave not one stone upon another.
There was a time when the sprays of
palms were blessed by priests and dis
tributed to those who were present, to be
worn a day and ;hen burned to furnish
aacred ashes foi Ash Wednesday. This
observance has ceased to be general, but
Palm Sunday has lost ncne of Its sacred
significance for the devout, as yesterday's
services seemed amply to attest.

Rev. 'jenks Delivers Another Sermon
on Omaha Conditions.
Rev. Edwin Hart Jenks of the First Pres
byterian church took for his text yesterday
morning Luke 19:42. "The things that be
long to the city's peace." He said In part:
"I do not like to criticise our beautiful
aity of Omaha, nor pick out ita faults. I
would rather point out Its good order. Its
parks. Its flowers and Its beautiful streets
created for the recreation of Its people. I
would not call attention to its weeds, its
dirty alleys and piles of cans and other
debris that litter its thoroughfares. We
expect to see that condition that will con
tribute to Its prosperity and growth. We
should unite in securing and inviting those
enterprises that will make it a great city.
I am convinced that the city Is not growing
with that rapidity that it should, with the
oromlaa that came a few rears ago., with
the building of so many magnificent whole- '
sale houses. Some say that taxation Is so
extreme that business is bound to go else
where. I am not a business man and may
speak unadvisedly of these things. But
I do know that Omaha is the great gateway
to the west, and that It is not Inviting to
Itself enterprises or undertakings that will
win to us the great industrial captains of
the nation. When cities call for enter
prises It too must provide something for
the man, the woman and . the children;
things that belong to the city and will per
petuata. its prosperity. Prosperity puts
stiffening and count Into a man. vThs
men of the city must stand together for
the advancement of enterprises which bring
t It tbe thing that are a city's peace.
"Tbs are mental and moral develop
ment. The publlo schools of Omaha are
Its pride. On Its crowning point stands an
Ideal school house and from Its top floats
the Star Spangled Banner. It Is a city of
'good streets snd beautiful homes, which
Indicates a spirit of upright and moral
energy, and thus Invites a population that
is yet bound to come of the brightest and
best.
"The things which ' belong to a city's
psace are its moral energy. TBe effort to
create higher Ideals of manhood and wom
anhood should .be our chief aim. The
church ought to make the most of every
thing that time cannot change, or time
sweep away. The highest stamps of a city
are the moral and spiritual elements that
belong to man. I believe that tbla city
will be better if those things which belong
to Jesus Christ and not to man are not
subordinated to evil.' I do bellevs that
tbia . city will some day contain 1,000,000
people. It Is In the line of a life of in
dustrial development that will make it so.
Let us then begin the purification of Its
policies. Let us gather under Christ's
wings. Improve In those things that will
make us Into one Christian fellowship."
HILL BELIEVES IN PREPARATION.
ay that It lCnablea Man to Grasp
Ilia Opportunities.
At the First Christian ' church Sunday
morning Rev. Hill spoke on "Opportunity."
"Every man," he declared, "Is the mis
ter ot Ills own destiny, and must play his
own part In the llfo of the world. Success
can be attained through man and through
Ood. Opportunity is God-given and when
once evident should be grasped before it is
(one. Ths unsuccessful are prone to point
at their more successful co-worker and say
that he has been blessed with good luck.
But luck has played no part In the making
ot man's success. Preparation is more tban
half of the battle, for once prepared, a man
grasps ths opportunity and moulds 'it to
suit bis own ambitions.
"Ths bumble man and the lowly may
reach great heights by combining the op
portunities of God with the preparation ot
man. Tbla is a world wherein one must

work to achieve and. having one prepared,
the opportunity will not be larking.
- "Look at Cromwell, Washington, Grant
and Rherman. They rose from humbler
walks of life through their very prepara
tion. When the opportunity came they
were prepared and they grasped It and
achieved the end that they had prepared
for. Franklin and Lincoln were great men
and they, too, started from the ranks and
rose because of this selfsame preparation.
"Preparation makes man the master of
opportunity and opportunity Is never lack
ing where man has once prepared for It."
SOILS' DESTBICTIOS IS SADDER.
Trinity's Speaker Hays City's Destruc
tion Is Blot the Worst.
Robert E. Lee Craig preached at Trinity
cathedral yesterday morning, taking for
his subject the words, "Thou knewest not
the time of thy visitation." Quantities of
vast palms decorated the cathedral from
the entrance to the attar, and the choir
was half aecrcted by the masses of light
green. The preacher spoke of Jesus weep
ing over the city which had rejected Him,
and thus forever sealed, its doom, and in
the pessage found an application to hu
manity. In part, he said:
"Christ, the King, Is ever coming to each
one very really and very closely. He comes
to us In His church. In His word. In His
sacraments, by the dealings of His provi
dence and by His holy spirit, and we either
know Him and obey His voice and welcome
His presence, or else we are closing our
cars and our hearts against Him and know
not the time of our divine visitation.
"The destruction of the city Is sad, but
it Is sadder still to see Immortal souls
and lives subject to everlasting existence
and capablo of such infinite happiness,
doomed to destruction. I do not wonder
there Is much rejoicing among the angels
of God over one sinner who repents. Oh,
my soul, shall thou be lost In. the final
ruin of sin because thou knewest not the
time of thy visitation?"
"Remember that each one of us has our
day of grace, our day of aalavatlon, and
let no man or woman be- bold enough to
thfnk that that time will last forever.
Time and opportunity are given to all alike.
Christ apeaks to us, now In a still, small
voice, and He comes to us In every sacra
ment, service and sermon in His church.
Every Sunday He would enter Into the
citadel of thy heart and abide there."
SIXTEEN NAMES ARE. ADDED.

A doien or more business men have ex
pressed themselves In favor of voting bonds
for paving Jtallroad avenue. "The cost,"
said one, "will not compare with the bene
fit that will be derived by ths city. Every
merchant In South Omaha will be benefited
and the taxpayers can well afford to flz up
this road so that It will be In a passable
condition at all seasons of the year." ' An
other said that with the laying ot the
pavement the street csr line would be ex
tended south aa far as the county Una., The
extension ot the car line bas long been
sought for and now that there Is a chance
for a paved street there Is no doubt that
the street car people will carry out a
promise made long ago.
"Residents of Albright assert that the
paving of the street and the extension of
the car line tend greatly to build up th
southern and southeastern portions of the
city. At the same time this building up
Is going on farmer traffic will be diverted
to South Omaha Instead of going over ths

As the city Is to pay two-thirds of the
cost of the proposed pavement and the

Colonel Watklns said Saturday night that
when Railroad avenue was paved to the
county line an effort would be made to have
the Sarpy county commissioners macadam

Crook and to Bellevue. Some grading will
have to be done, but Sarpy county farmers
are, so It Is stated, willing to stand a small

Since the new South Omaha charter has
passed the legislature and Is now up to the
governor foraignature many of the citizens
of South Omaha are speculating on who the
governor will appoint as members of the
Are and police commission. It is stated that
plenty of applications have been sent to
Lincoln. Nearly every politician In the
city has a different slate and In some In
stances wagers have been made on the out
come. Mayor Koutsky does not Intend to
oppose the new board In any manner, so
he said yesterday. On the other hand he
will lend every assistance possible. Those
who claim to know assert that the board
will be named by the governor not later
than Wednesday of this week. In the mean
time candidatea for positions will continue
to send Indorsements to Lincoln.
Council Meeting Tonight.
One of the regular monthly meetings of
the city council will be held tonight. Sun
day there was not much, prospect ot any
large amount of business being transacted.
At the last meeting the March salary sheet
and some bills were approved. These claims
were not, however, signed by . the mayor
until the last day ot March. It was thought
that at tonight's meeting some arrange
ments for a date for a special bond election
might be made. . As the new city, charter
bas not been signed by the governor it
seems more tban likely that there will be
a meeting along about the middle of the
week to choose a date for the special elec
tion. A date tor a revision ot .registration
will also bs selected.
Two railroad ordinances may come' up
for passag. These relate to the speed' of
trains Inside the city limits snd also to
the ringing of bells at crossings. , Some
of the councllmen say that trains run
through the yards here without, blowing
a. whistle or ringing a bell at crossings
and they insist that this' must' be stopped;
The same kind ot ordinances have been up
a number of times In the last eight or ten
years, but even when passed were not con
sidered legal and were never enforced.

Vanlevllle at tha Crelahtoa-Orpheam.
It's a laughing bill from start to finish
at the Crelghton Orpheum this week, and a
good one; aot one of the acts Is Intended to
cause thought on the part of anyone, only
Joyous laughter. Downle and Vanetta start
the hilarity with a hodge podge of nonsense
that begins as though there waa something
to It, and ends only, when the stags Is
ready for the next act. The Aodraessen
brothers, who are down as "the Danish
Midshipmen," do soms clevr acrobatic
novelties In a way that shows careful dril
ling, much agility and unusual strength.
Mile Olive doesn't do any wonderful teats
ot juggling, but what she does Is with a
grace and dainty eass that lends a charm
to her apparently simple feats. She proved
quits entertaining last night. Melville and
Stetson, who have been prime favorites In
Omaha "since before the big fire," come for
their annual appearance with new songs,
new jokes and new costumes, but the ssms
sweet voices and unfailing good humor. The
applause they won last night Is certainly
a testimonial to their local popularity. The
Do ' Forests are not only "whirlwind"
dancers, but they are very graceful dancers,
too, and excellent funraakers. Their turn
Is well devised, and made a great hit with
the people present.- Harding and Ah Sid,
with tbelr "Clown and Chinaman" skit,
work In a lot of excellent acrobatic feats
with a good deal of burlesque, and keep the
people In a roar of laughter all the while
they are on the stage. In the klnodrome a
lot of new pictures are shown, among them
s splendid panorama of the trip over the
famous Georgetown loop. All in all, the
bill Is one of the most enjoyable that has
been put on at the Orpheum this season.
Good houses were present at both after
noon and evening performances yesterday.
"York State Folks" at the Boyd.
Two large audiences were at the Boyd
yesterday to witness the afternoon and
evening performances of "York State
PFoiks," a simple play built around some In
cidents of village life In one of the older
settled but Isolated communities of New
Tork. It is peculiar In that it has no vil
lain, no wronged heroine, and doesn't end
with a calamity for any one, but concludes
with a wedding and lets the curtain down
on sn old man peacefully dreaming a beau
tiful dream. It gives scope for some ex
cellent character acting, and the company
having It In hand takes every advantage
the situations offer.

Detectives Hudson and Dunn made the

Miss Oall Laughlin spoke to ths Philos

subject of the suffrage of woman. The
audience that heard her was one ot the
largest that has attended the meetings of
the society this winter.
"Ths next loglcsl snd Inevitable step. If

Laughlin, "Is to put our theories Into prsc

of the laws which they must obey. Every
law applies as much to woman as to man;
the penaltlea for her are the same. Every
question of politics that concerns the men
of the nation concerns the women as much
and In some cases more.
"Take the tariff question for example.

"So far as ths foolish objection to women
going-to the polls. is concerned, let mk
say that the objection Is because the habit
has been for men only to vote. .Every
progressive step the world ever knew was
the doing of something differently than be

women at the polls 'would sweep, aside
much of tLe disorder that sometimes ex

In Wyoming for thirty-four years and both
the people and the records are unanimous
In the verdict that it Is eminently a good
thing."
