Imagine a father giving to his son the
history of the life and character of George
Washington. It Is an essential part of the
eduratlon of the American youth of today
to know of the life of Washington from
his childhood to hla death. Oladstone aaid
of Washington that If he were to select a
name for the highest pedestal of human
fame, for honor, statesmanship, one that
should tower above all others, he would
name George Washington. What does the

"Now what la He? 'Whom say ye that I

All round this globe He Is regarded nre
emlnently as the first man In history, not
in fable and myth, but aa a man who lived,
slept and moved the -same as Lincoln or
Caesar. Everywhere we are confronted
with the query of What would Jesua do?
How would He edit a paper? How would
He advise In municipal or atate or na

one ever charged that Jesus was dls'lnct.

aa a cltlsen ot me worm, one wno tea

were larger than their wheat graina in
India they said 'It comes from Jesus in

"Much Is said of the mistakes of Moses,
but no fault has ever ben found with
Christ. His sermon on the mount and His
parables are regarded as the classics of
the ages. He la regarded by all as a man
of beautiful and loving and unique per
sonality, and the absolute type of moral
rectitude, honor and virtue. If Jesus Is
not the son of God He la not a good man.
Everyone believes Him to have been truth,
ful. He said He was the son of God, and
He Is what He saya He la or He Is an Im
postor or a fanatic. The whole world In
sists upon Hla spotless purity. He proves
what He Is. Jesua only has planted His
love on this earth and kept It growing.
Who today carea anything about Caesar or
Napolean? Jesus never wrote a book. Ho
was not a man of literary attainments; He
never led an army, neither was He a
philosopher, but yet He Is master of all
the ages. Men come to Jesus and are ready
to die for H!m. No man needs to be Intro

Our hearts unite In one universal answer
He la our Almighty Savior."

This celebration la In commemoration of
the passing of the Children of Israel from

of any people to make a struggle for na

successful without the shedding of blood.
For thirty-five centuries the feast ot the
Passover has been celebrated, and has al
ways been in the nature of a festival ot
freedom. There was a special liturgical
aervlce and the prayera and Invocations
were all in thanksgiving for liberty and
petitions tor Its continuance. A special

With tho resignation of L. F. Etter as
chief of the South Omaha fire department
a lively scramble for hla official shoes has
atarted. Etter waa appointed chief of the
department on July 1, 1900, but It was not
until July 10 that be assumed control ot
the department. During hla term of aervlce
Etter has done good work and ia well liked
by the men who served under him.
Aa for the candidatea for the place, tour
have announced themselves and a couple
are holding bark. George Curtis, the
present assistant chief, will hold down
the job ot acting chief and city electrician
for a time, but no one seems to know
Just how long this time will be. Charles
Alstadt, who baa worked on both the polloe
and fire departments for a number of years,
is a candidate for chief and he says be
wants the position. Then there la Captain
Garrett of No. 1 hose company. Garrett
has been on the department ao long that he
remembera when N street was a mudhole
and a creek ran along where the Packers'
bi.uk now atanda. Last ot all, tor the
present, Is the application of Fred Smith,
for nine years chief of the department.
Smith baa been out of office for over three
years and he wants to get back. All of
the candidatea mentioned are working hard
for the place.
Mayor Koutsky Insists that he will not
appoint a chief Just now. He figures that
when the proposed fire and police board
takes control it will want to name Ha own
chief and therefore he has placed Curtis
in charge. Some of the members . ot the
council favor the Idea ot the mayor naming
a chief now In order to forestall any ac
tion on the part of the coming fire and po
lice board. This the mayor does not' want
to do, but the candidatea are urging an ap
pointment. The fight for the place la a
lively one. The salary of chief la $1,200
a year.
Another Saapect Arrested.
South Omaha waa exceedingly quiet Sat
urday night and at noon Sunday the Jail
waa empty. During the afternoon . de

assertion that he has a mania for running

said, he made remarka to children on the
streets, which, when repeated to the par

Hayes. Chief Brlgga said last night that
when Hayes comes up for trial a very se

AT THE PLAYHOUSES
Vaadevllte at tho Crelhtoa-Orphem.
It's a merry lot of funmakera they have
on the bill at the Creighton-Orpheum thla
week. The performance opens with a laugh
and enda with a rear, and all the way be
tween the proceedings are punctuated with
giggles . and guffaws, with smiles and
chuckles, all occasioned by the perform
ances on the stage, which range from the
mildly humoroua to the wildly ludicrous,
with one musical turn that stands by I'sclf
at the head ot Its class. Not an act on the
bill carries any scenery; . each depends
solely on the talent of the performers and
each wins on merit alone. Kennedy and
Rooney open the show with some new sug
gestions In the line of eccentric dances.
Julia Ring sings some topical songs In a
way to secure the approval ot her hearers,
and then Dave Nowltn glvea his own In
imitable Imitations of animals. Fisher and
Carroll close the first belt of the bill with
a conversation that la Just a little bit dif
ferent in every respect from any other act
of the aort yet seen here. What the New
York Irishmen who threw eggs at the
comedian In "McFadden'a Row of Flats"
would do if they heard Carroll bark like a
sea Hon can only be guessed at. "Mua'cal"
Dale Is aa good aa bis name and furnishes
genuine music on chimes and harmonicas.
Yorke and Aiama are easily the best pair
f Hebrew dialect comedians ever seen
ere and have an entirely new "line of
talk" for their performance. Rice and
Walters are not only excellent acrobats, but
re good comedians and do a aeries of
mirth-provoking stunts without any of the
ccessorlea usually adopted by their
brethren. For one thing, all their tum
bling, and tbls Includes an infinitude of
bard falls, is done on tre bare stage floor.
The pictures in the klnodroroe are good.
It would be unfair to all the others to
speak of the applause given any ono of
the turns yesterday. All were received
ith enthusiasm by the large audiences at
both afternoon and evening performances,
and each fully merited the applause It re
ceived. For entertainment pure and sim

Hal Reed's "Human Hearts" la certainly
popular In Omaha. It was given at the
Boyd yesterday for the second time th's
season and the house was crowded at both
matinee and evening performances. The
members of the company were cheered to
do their best or their worst by the en
thusiastic support they received from the
udlences, who were nut content with the
usual method of expressing sympathy with
the hero and condemnation for the villain.

SERVICES Or THE EPISCOPALIANS,
They Attract Attendance that Crowd
tho Rnlldlngs.
Easter In most of the Episcopal churches
of Omaha waa observed In an elaborate and
lavish manner. There was opulence of lilies
and light and special music assisted in ren
dering the services more than ordinarily
beautiful and Impressive. Following the
custom, there were two principal services
one known as the sunrise service, early In
the morning, and the other near noon. At
both communion was given the members.
Immenso crowds attended, deaptte the
threatening aspect of the sky and the chill
winds. ,
At Trinity cathedral the sunrise service
was at 6. For this and the 11 o'clock icr
vice hundreds of extra chairs had to be
placed in the alslea and to the rear to ac
commodate the congregation. The altar
waa a blate of light from many candlea and
gas flames, while the simple lilies half hid
the choir and banked and overtopped the
space behind the chancel rail. A special
choir of sixty-five voices aang under the
direction ot Mr. Wright, and Robert Mc
Cormack sang Handel's "I Know My Re
deemer Liveth." In his sermon Rev. Rob
ert E. L. Craig said:
"Today the human race not only galna a
new hope, but receives a pledge, a title, a
sign of a new life, for Christ has risen
from the dead. To me It appears that had
Christ not risen It would have been the
greater miracle. The greatest miracle was
Hla life a human life without spot or
blemish. The world had aeen resurrections
before, but never before had they seen a
perfect life. The resurrection from the
dead followed, aa a natural consequence. The
Incorruptible life within Htm was stronger
than the grasp or death. Jesus rose from
the dead because the germ, the seed ot lifo
within Him had never been subject to death
or weakened by aln. No grave could have
held that buoyant. Irresistible life. It Is
Impossible for life to be destroyed as long
aa it la held In obedience to Its law.
"In the death ot Jeaus there la one thing
that all should remember He died because
He wished to die. All other men die because
they must. Had Jesus not been able to con
tinue living, had He ao willed, He would
have made no sacrifice by dying.-'
Special music was prepared for All Saints'
church, where Mr. C. S. Haverstock sang
"Alleluia! He la Risen," at the 11
o'clock aervlce. At the aunrlse aervlce,
which In thla church was held at 7: JO. Mr.

and the cedar with a scarlet thread, and It
waa this Instruction which served as the
text of the sermon by the minister.
Ha spoke of the hyssop, a small shrub or
vine, a typical ot the people of Israel and
their aspirations for liberty: this liberty
had been maintained for centuries by the
Jews before the coming ot Jeaua, who
brought to the world the Idea of life the
Christian Idea of Immortality, typified by
the cedar, the tallest and proudest tree of
the forest, the hyssop and the cedar bound
together being typical of life and liberty,
one worthless without the other, while the
scarlet thread which holda them together
Is typical ot Love, the power which moves
the world to higher and better thlnga.
At the Woodmen hall, at 9 a. m.. Rabbi
Reser celebrated the feaat of the Passover
after the rites ot the orthodox Jewish
church. There Is considerable difference
between the ritual of the orthodox Jews and
that of the reformed Jewa, for the former
hold to the central idea of the reatoratlon
ot the temporal nationality of the Jewish
people and a return to Jerusalem. To tbem
the idea ot liberty Is not complete, and
Passover, which la a celebration ot the Idea
of liberty, brings with It aspirations tor a
return to the land of the glory of the raoo
and the restoration of the older rltea of the
church and nation. In thla ritual are pray
ers for the downtrodden and oppressed
members of the race In all lands. They
pray tor the restoration ot the sacrifices
such aa in an earlier day were made at
Jerusalem. Since the downfall of Jerusalem
the sacrificial form of religious worship
haa been abandoned by the Jews becauae
aacrlflce can only be made upon the altar
In the holy city, and for thla reaaon the
prayer for the restoration of sacrificial
worship aa the lamb waa formerly sacri
ficed at the feast of the Passover Is but a
prayer for the Independence of tha race In
the land of lta glory.
Rabbi Reser'a theme at the aervlce was
"The Passover." and he gave an historical
aurvey of the feast, telling of It Institution
by divine precept aa a perpetual memorial
of the power of Jehovah In bringing His
chosen people from bondage; of Its obser
vance In th earlier day, and of the form In
which It baa been celebrated since the dis
persion of the Jews from the sr.cred city
caused them to substitute ritualism for
sacrificial worship, and of the hope of the
people for the restoration ot the ritea of
the early church In the holy land.

BISHOP FOSS BELIEVES THEM
ay Ho Ha Faith tn the Conversions
Made by Missionaries In
. India.
Bishop Fobs of the Methodist Episcopal
church, who spent Sunday In the city, telle
of a very interesting experience and ob
servation durttt hi visit to the mission
ary field In India a few years ago. He
apoke relative to the sincerity of the con
version of tha heathen In those landa, ay
lng:
"I waa deeply Impressed by the remark
of an English nobleman Interested In mis
sionary work, who was going to India on
the same vessel with me. He aaid, In speak
ing ot the number of recent conversions
that had been reported by our society, they
must be very raw converts. Over 1,400 con
verts had been reported during a very re
cent period, and his remark atruck me with
considerable force. Implying as it did a
doubt of the real conversion of the con
verts. ' I determined to investigate the mat
ter closely when 1 reached Borada, our
principal mission station and near where
th conversions were made. I did so. I
asked our resident missionary about It. Ho
told me that the conversions were sincere,
devout and real. And It was my sincere
pleasure to verify his statement shortly
thereafter when a gathering of the con-
verta had assembled to see; the American
bishop. I asked them through the Inter
prefer If they , seemed to understand the
creed, and could they repeat It and the
Lord's Prayer. He had tbem recite the
apostles' creed and Lord's Prayer, and they
did ao with a fervor and completeness that
would do credit to any American congrega
tion here .In Omaha. These 1,400 convers
ions were the result of the work of fifteen
of the first converts of a year or two pre
vious. They believed and went about among
their countrymen with the most intense
seal, spreading the gospel of Christ, and
today the number of conversions reported
from Borada Is not 1.400, but 14,600. I al
lude to thla to show you that the work of
the Blaster Is spreading under missionary
Influences with the moat gratifying rapid
ity. The faith ot the converts is as firm
aa a rock and will be as enduring."

The tucks, the pleats, the shirring and
the silk foundation doubtless will be mod
esty's saving agencies, but they make papa
dream of modiste's bills eight days' long
working days, at that.
And the hat! Well, It's no roof, but the
flat one this year. Mansard effects are
forgotten. The contractor builds her bando
as tall in front as a barn-yard fence, but
the straw awning shoots out straight with
nothing doing on top. The decorations all
dangle from the underside. Here cherry
orchards and grape patches may grow In
profuse luxuriance, or. If preferred, it la
quite proper to hang such lace strips as
can be spared from last year's petticoats.

RISH.SWEDEF.ORMS IDEAL
Combination of Their Nationalities
Mr. Hlsratln Regard Highest
Type of Man,
Mr. Anna 8. Hlgglns told th Philoso
phical society yesterday afternoon that the
highest type of the white race is to be
found In a man who might be described as
half Irish and half Swedish. She did not
use these words, but gave the inference
In a paper on "The Celta of Western Eu
rope," read before the society. According
to Mrs. Hlggins, the words Celt, Gaul, Goth
and Gael mean practically the same. The
Celtt of western Europe, she believes, were
th first ot the white race on the conti
nent. She asserted that at tbelr beat they
were the highest exponent of the Caucasian
race, "tall and well formed, with eyes of
the deepest blue, hair In which all the hues
and raya of the sun were reflected and
th clearest brains." She mentioned the
fact that In the very remote days an Irish
cbieftan had to be more than six feet tall
or he was Irellgible for the position. Gen
erally, th Cel'a in the original met with
th apeaker's entire admiration.
