fr THE OMATTA DAILY BET!: MONDAY, AFBIL 27, 1003. TWO WEEKS' MISSION OPENS Is IitnguraUd at Holy Ftmil Canrch bj rthen Darin aid Mum y. USUAL AND UNUSUAL SERVICES Mass mm 4 Instructions Each Moralut, with Ceremony the War the Cross Fire Aftemooas la rack Week. A twe weeks' mission opened Sunday morning with high mss at the Holy Family church, Eighteenth and Iierd streets, the missionaries beln Father Devlne and Father Murray. The first sermon of the mission waa preached at the mam at 10:30 o'clock, and the announcement of the order of services made. There will be maas and Instruction! at 6 o'clock each morning and at S o'clock. At 3 o'clock In the afternoon, except Ftiday and Saturdays, there will be celebrated the ceremony of the way of the cross. The evening services, rosary, ser mon and benediction of the Blessed Sacra ment, will begin at 7:30 o'clock. The first week the evening services will be for women and the second week for men. At the first aermon the minister said In part: "You are not surprised to see strangers In the sanctuary today for you have been told of the mission which Is now to begin. Behold, now Is the accepted time for people to think of the salvation of their souls. Our Clod Is a Ood of infinite love, which He showed in an Infinite way In our creation and there Is but one thing for us to do, and that Is to strive to at tain the end which Ood had In view for us at the time of our creation. Ood gave evidence of this end by aendlng to earth prophets who called the men of old to turn from earthly things to a higher life and crowned His blessings to mankind by sending His son, Jesus Christ, as the saviour. Christmas looks to Oood Friday, the saddest day of the church year, and yet the gladdest day, too, for upon that day the death of Christ Redeemed the world. "The Catholic church maintains a per petual mission. Jesus Christ commissioned thoee He has ordained priests on Holy Thursday, and this commission Is continu ous to the end of the world. The priests are just so many Chrlats, sent to the world for the same end .that Jesus Christ was sent to accomplish Its salvation. Jesus Christ Is remaining on earth through the priesthood, and hence there are missions everywhere, but on these special occasions there Is an especial outpouring of God's grace and it is of great Importance that all should take advantage of the opportun ity to care for their aoul'a salvation." and year out. One's religion was that of persecution, sacrifice, self-immolation, misery and the shedding of blood, while the other preferred to love progress, be nevolence, peace and gentleness. The pro phet who declared that all Ood wanted man to do waa to live in harmony with His laws In humility and gentleness, was laughed at "Bhow me the Shylock of modern life, the man who demands his pound of flesh at all cost and I will show you that his Ood Is a holy terror. But show me the gentle, peace-loving man and I will show you a Ood of his belief as a kind and most in dulgent father. "The grander man becomes the greater will his God grow and the finer will his re ligion become. The man who finds the sweetest trust Is the man who digs deep Into the depths of hia own soul and there portrays the Infinite." FREACHES TO ODD FELLOWS nT. Tlndall Conducts Special Service for the I.odsre Members at Trinity Methodist. Rev. D. K. Tlndall of the Trinity Metho dist Episcopal church, preached to the Odd Fellows, saying: "I have read to you the parable of the good Samaritan, which scrip ture contains the foundation principles of Odd Fellowship. This, one of the very best of all ordera, stands for some vital prin ciples, and not simply for a little red tape or secrecy, such as regalias, dress parade, grips and passwords. It stands for a belief In a personal God. It is not a negation, agnosticism, materialism or atheism. It believes In the fatherhood of Ood and the brotherhood of man. It Is not irreligious, but Is more moral than religious. It Is not a church, nor does it Interfere with the duties b( Ms members to Ood, family or cam p try. It stands tor friendship, which principle was ao beautifully illustrated by Jonathan and David and the Oood Samari tan of sacred history, which are but faint types of , that greater friendship exhibited in Jesus Christ in both life and death. It stands for love a love that does not ex haust Itself in sentiment or expend Itself In gush, but is fruitful of good deeds, as was seen in the Oood Samaritan, Dorcas with her needle, Mary with her box of costly ointment, and in many acts of mercy and love of the present day. "Odd Fellowship expends annually $4,000, 000 In caring for the sick, widows and or phans and burying the dead. With thla great Bum of money and its many acts of love, this order dries many a tear, com forts many a heart and blesses many a home. "It stands tor truth. It Inculcates frank, ness, candor and reality, as opposed to shams and hypocracy. Since 'we be breth ren' honesty and fairness should character ise all our acttons toward each other. "It stands for womanhood, hence the or der of Rebckahs. Where help la needed or good deeda are wrought, woman with her loving heart and tender hand is soon to be found. She was not only last at the cross and first at the sepulchre, .but first and last In every good word and work. The good book tells us it is not good for man to be alone, We could not fight our -battles, (administer our charities or run our churches without woman'a loving and de voted help. , This fallen race could not be redeemed without her soul and body, her heart and hand.", REV. STEVE3SO "AYS FAHGWELL. Preaches Ilia Pinal Sermon la Second Presbyterian Chnrch. Rev. R. M. Stevenson, who has occupied the pulpit of the 8econd Presbyterian church, near Twenty-fourth and Cuming streets, for the past three years, closed his pastorate yesterday. He took for his text yesterday morning, First Corinthians, third chapter and fourteenth verse: "If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward." Rev. 8tevenson' said In part: "Structures are weak that are built upon a weak foundation. You would not build a etruc ture upon a foundation of reeds and expect It to stand. The structure that Is built upon a substantial foundation will endure permanently. The foundation becomes stronger with the passing years and the building continues as a monument to its builder and is his reward. So It is with human character. And so it is with the church. The pastor's duty is to minister to Its spiritual growth and organization and if he does his duty well the church will endure. "In the past three years that I have been with you here I have tried to build per manently with my church, city and nation. The church !s the nursery of the best of human character and makes men strong. If men are to be made strong In their moral character it must be through the church of Jesus Christ. It rests upon the boys and girls of our Sunday ' schools to deter mine the future of the good or bad of our commonwealths. Shall we anchor to a rock or to an iceberg. We are too prone to anchor to some passing fad such as Theosophy or Christian Science, which is like the iceberg, brilliant In Its passing glory, but in the sunlight of Christ's truth melts away and leaves us floundering in the sea of doubt, uncertainty and moral misery. I have tried in my ministry to anchor you to the faith of Jeeus Christ. The other fads have no use for the cross, but delude themselves in dwelling upon the beautiful personal character of Jesus Christ as a mortal man. No man can go beyond me In magnifying the beauty of Christ's character. We need a Saviour who Is at once human end divine, and such is the Christ that I have taught and love. I have tried to anchor you to the word of Ood. I expect to see this church become a great power in this community. ' Sometimes min isters preach as though to a procession passing by. I desire to express my sincere pleasure in this pastorate of three years with this church, which is the most beauti ful of my life. Never has there been one unpleasant word between the pastor and the church heard, nor one unkindly feeling. There may have been a difference of views at times but they never, crystallsed into an open difference. There has - been no stabbing In the back. I acknowledge a great debt of gratitude to the teachers and the Sunday school and to the different church societies. There are no stings in my heart. If any have been offended by me they have kept still about it. I hope for the betterment of the church. If I have said things sometimes that have hurt one's feelings I most sincerely ask pardon for it. Who Ood may aend you to succeed me I know not. This pulpit will become vaoant tonight after the evening service. Rev. Joseph Lamps of the Presbyterian sem inary, as moderator, will take 'charge for the present. In conclusion let me say that if it Is not permitted for us to meet here again we can be assured of a reunion in heaven." UNITARIANS HAVE VISITOR. Secretary Hawley- of the Western Conference Addresses Them. Rev. Fred Hawley, secretary of the West ern Unitarian conference, preached at Unity church yesterday morning. His ser mon was an argument and plea for the ex pression of religious thought snd feeling as outlined by the tenets of the Unitarian faith. "Every religion ever developed In the world began with a theory," aaid the preacher. "And we find that the object of every one of them is the same to change present undesirable relations Into more de sirable ones. Ths methods employed have varied largely with clime, circumstances and environment, but the purpose of msklng more desirable relations in life Is forever the same. "We have stopped talktng about a Ood, or the Ood and are beginning to talk about Ood. And in that God we perceive the great force that animates the world. "In the religions of ths past, wherein the theory of sacrifice and proplution has been dominant, we see two forces or ele ments which may be typified by the priest and the prophet. The first trying to evade the law and escape conviction and the sec ond trying to live in harmony with ths lsw. The priest believed In a caprlcioua, arbitrary and changing God, while the other's Idea was of a great benevolent law of God, beneficent, benign, the same year in HUMILITY IS THE MASTER WORD. Rev. Hatch Kamea the Key ta the Pare Life In Sandajr Address, Rev. Frederick Hatch spoke in Kountze Memorial church Sunday morning of purity of the heart and the necessity of a pure heart in gaining entrance Into the kingdom of heaven. He said in part: ' "There afe those who in our everyday conversation seem to draw un out and make us say and think the best that is in us. They possess a winsonieness of mind and a purity of heart that seeks its way into our minds and our own hearts and shows up all that Is 'best and purest in our own lives. It was so with Jesus when He. as a 12-year-old boy, conversed with the prletts in the temple and spoke deferently and yet with authority of the laws of the Bible and the church, tie had a winsome mind and that purity of heart that made them listen and believe in Him. "The kingdom of earth is so different from the kingdom of heaven! Here on earth we do things that are not right and we say that we are shrewd and clever, but these things will not make the way to the kingdom of heaven any easier. Humility Is the master word of a pure life. But pride never understood humility. If shrewd ness and cleverness are the way of the world, so likewise is a loving heart and a wlnsomeness of mind ths Vey to heaven. A pure love demands no return. Did not God give His Son tor ths world and in so doing show Himself greater in redemption than In revelation? Heaven cannot be reached through the Bible alone. It Is the symbol of what our lives should be and we must be worthy of heaven to attain to it. "Fame, as founded on the ways of ths world, is transient, but a pt-reness of heart la the greatest of all things and will live longer after man's death than the works that he has accomplished We are what the love of the parent has made us. It Is the brother or the sister, the father or the mother that has made the man and not the ,' deed that he does after he has reached the years of manhood."

PRESENT SYSTEM IS VAIN Folic Judge Berk Eaji Criminal Art Not Helped to Reform. DESIRES WORK HOUSE AND BETTER JAILS Believes that Detectives Shoald Be Lawyers and Draakards aad . Drag Flenda Pat Away la Hospitals. Police Judge Louis Berka declared the present system of dealing with criminals to be a failure in a paper on reformation read heforeNhe Philosophical society yes terdsy afternoon. He - said that there should be more hospital treatment and less Jail treatment and that the Jails should be rebuilt and each cell made comfortable and pleasant. Detectives, he asserted, should be lawyers and men of great ability and character, so that the reputation for falsehood which they so long have held be fore courts would be destroyed and their work more often crowned with success. A workhouse in Omaha and a chtldrens' home near the city were strongly advocated by the Judge, who said: "It is evident that the system now In use Is a failure, so far as reformatory work Is concerned. If we expect to cope with the criminal classes we must recognise their abnormal conditions that there Is something to correct. That our actions towards them will be to reform and ele vate them. "It Is the certainty of punishment and not the severelty of punishment that deters criminals from committing crime, provid ing punishment has a terroror them. Most of them bellve they will not be discovered. If discovered they expect to be acquitted; and It convicted tc be pardoned. 8o they continually nurse the avenues of escape. Wants Better Defectives. . "To ferrot out crimes snd bring guilty parties to trial every detective ought to be lawyer. He should have a thorough knowledge of tUe law of evidence and be equipped on that branch of the law as well as the prosecuting attorney or the attorney for the defendant. The state should be more successful in the trial of defendants. There should be less trials and a larger percentage of convictions of the cases tried. . . "There would be economy In employing men with legal knowledge even If the state or city had to pay larger salaries to the detectives. They should be men of high character in every way, especially for truth and veracity, and be above the average run of witnesses, so that people could depend upon them and have confidence that they are actuated In their line of duty purely and solely by a sense of Justice to do everything right between the state and the defendant charged with the crime and not merely to add laurels to their fame of prosecuting some unfortunate person. "In treating the criminals tbey should be classified. The chronic drunk and co caine fiends and thoBe suffering, from dis eases should be placed in hospitals where they would receive mental and physical treatment; kept there long enough to re cover from their condition and restored to society. At present an alarming number of ' criminals are using cocaine,' which Is undermining their whole constitutions. What sense of right they may have had Is stolen from them or subordinated by their dealre to get cocaine and keep themselves In a stupid condition. Such persons lose all . regard, of right and their ambition Is only to get more fuel to feed the flame of destruction. Insanity follows and death comes to relieve them. Hospital treatment Is the only way to help them. .Need of Work Honse. "The workhouse Is something that we need. In fact It Is almost Indlspensible to handle that class of criminals that will not work. To supply their wants they must beg or steal whereever they go. Of course they have a transitory habit and do not stay long In one place, aa they would be come too well known and would be more severely dealt with. They do not care tor a few days' sentence In Jail. ' "Under the present system they csnnot reform. But - no city can afford from a financial standpoint to go Into ' reform ing tramps. Taxpayers would register a protest against such a practice. The only way it can be done successfully Is for all cities to adopt a system that will take care of that class and attempt to reform the members without driving them Into adja cent territory. We are in no shape to han dle these criminals. If one Is convicted under the state law he Is sent to the county Jail. There they have no work tor him to do. . ' ; "Just think of It a moment. Tou charge a man with being an Idle person and not having visible means of support and he Is convicted under the law and is glvsn thirty days In Jail to do nothing the same as be Is charged with doing. When he is discharged he has no more visible means of support thsn when he wss sent to Jail. "We need a workhouse. Then there would be a chance to reform the chronically Idle. If they have a habit of being idle substitute it with an industrious habit. Keep them until they acquire a desire for work. It seems that a person Is so constituted that when he Is not occupied . with something good be is occupied with something not good. Man is active in some direction that Is the manifestation of life. It Is a ques tion which way his energy Is directed. No Expense ta City. "If we had a workhouse It could be made self-sustaining. It would benefit the prls oners and the city would be at no ex pense. It Is certainly not economy to lock up energy that can be turned to produce something that would benefit humanity, When the prisoners finally are discharged they should be given a little money so that they would not be obliged to beg or steal until they found something to do. "Children ought to receive better atten tion. A home should be provided for them outside the city limits where they could re ceive an education and be taught how to work and some could be adopted by parties who would give them good homes and proper training. "If we recognize that environment has a great deal to do with eur condition; that we receive our impressions from surround ings and the coming In contact with the things of dally life, and, as those things we see give us an Impulse or desire for a higher and better life stir within us an ambition to accomplish some objeet while we are sojourning here then our dsrk and dingy cells with barren walls should be remodeled. They ought to be better ven tilated, have a window to let the sunshine in and have seme pictures on ths walls. Those kind of surroundings would give the prisoner Inspiration for a better life. Some Jails are dungeons, so built that they shut out the life-Inspiring sun, so that the prisoners 'cannot be aroused from their ethargy." AT THE PLAYHOUSES Douglas Printing Co., 1508 Howard. Tel. (U. Vaadevllle at the Crelanton-Orpheum. It Is to laugh at the vaudeville houte again this week. Each act save the trick bicycle riders hss its element of mirth, and some of them are all mirth. Raymond and Caverly lead In the fun-making; they are a pair of German character comedians who are really clever, and who Veep their aud itors in an uproar from start to finish. And their methods sre clean and legitimate, too. Julia Kingsley and Nelson Lewis, who were here earlier in the season in "Along the Mohawk," have a skit that contains some elements of genuine wit, and which gives them both an opportunity to exhibit their talent as actors. Mr. Lewis Is a good comedian and Miss Kingsley is an excellent foil for him. They were warmly received at both performances yesterday. Probably the funniest pair In the lot is Hayes and Healy. "Shorty" Heajy has made thou sands laugh In his day; and Is still far from being a dead one, while Hayes is not only a very clever acrobat, agile, light and I graceful, but ts funmaker of no mean ability as well. . Their act is called "The Ringmaster and the .Circus Rider," and is a laugh from first to last, .Montrell, the Juggler, has added to hid list several neat stunts since he was last seen here, and with his colored esslstsnt not only does some clever Juggling but furnishes a great deal of amusement. The- Brothers French are from Paris. They are labeled expert trick bicyclists, but roost of their work Is done on a single wheel, and some ex tremely dttncult and novel feats are accom plished with grace and apparent ease. The Baileys vary the usual "coon shouter" methods and made a real hit last night with their shadowgraph dance. A number of new and interesting pictures are shown in the klnorlrome. Altogether the bill Is a very good one and well worthy of patronage. "The Missouri Girl" at the Boyd. A melodramatic idyl of farm life In "the land of the big red apple" received the customary Sunday afternoon and evening patronage at the Boyd yesterday. The play la built along the conventional lines, but has some minor departures In the way of scenes and situations in order to adapt It to Its local coloring. Several good special ties are introduced as Incidental to its action.' Among these Is the Ozark quartet, whose singing was Immensely popular with the audiences yesterday. The compajy iu cludes some competent people, among them being Fred and Sadie Raymond. Miss Ray mond's work is uncommonly good, and won her considerable applause. The piece will be repeated again this evening. Bclatlo Rheumatism Cored. "I hare been subject to sciatic rheuma tism for years," says E. J. Waldron of Wilton Junction, Iowa. "My Joints were stilt and gave me much pain and discom fort. My ' Joints would crack when I straightened . up. 1 ..used Chamberlain's Pain Balm and have been thoroughly cured. Have not had a pain or ache from the old trouble for many months."' The quick re lief from pain which this liniment affords Is alone worth many times Us cost. OMAHAN LANDS CONTRACTS Walter ; Phelps Will Do Soma of the Building at the St. Louis Exposition. -Walter Phelps returned this morning from St. ,; Lotita, where he has spent two weeks on . work'-1 connected with the St. Louis exposition, i Hef has secured the con tract for the erection of the Missouri state building and the' staff work on the fine arts and agricultural "buildings, the total amount of the- contracts being about $225, 000. Mr. Phelps said that there have been no- labor - troubles of any consequence at the fair grounds, but many of the men are dissatisfied.. The teamsters received an Increase of 50 cents' a day recently and the rush of work preparatory to the ded ication of the grounds has put every man at work ' and has occasioned considerable discussion among the worklngmen, who, it Is understood, may demand higher wages in some linea.

OUTLOOK IN LABOR FIELD Enmor that Trsubls Between OontrtoUra ar.d Carpenters Will Be Aver.ed COMPROMISE AGREEMENT IS SUGGESTED Serious Troable May Coma oa First of Month from Team Drivers' laloa. Which Has SIh Hundred Members. A report was current in labor circles Sunday that the trouble' between the con tractors and carpenters, which wss ex pected next Friday, at the time the new scale was to go Into effect, had been averted by compromise. The report was to the effect that the demand for 10 cents an hour additional made by the men had been conceded In halt the amount, the wages for the coming year to be 45 cents an hour. Coupled with this report came the In formation that the carpenters are to exert their influence upon the hod carriers to return to work Monday under the terms suggested by the employers some time sgo, the new scale of wages to go Into effect Friday; that the bricklayers bad agreed to this and would also do what they could to get the hod carriers to return to work oa this basis. Members of the hod carriers' union said yesterday that they were parties to no such agreement and that nothing could be done until Tuesday "night, the date of the regular meeting of the Union; that they etui stood for the full demand so far as the wages are concerned and that they will go to work simultaneously with the signing of the. scale. Regarding the construction of the new market house the president of one of the hod carriers' unions said that no work would be done upon the building unless the contractors having that work In charge signs the' scale for the entire year on all of bis work. They Refuse to Talk. No carpenter contractor and no member of the carpenters' union, several of whom were seen, would confirm or deny the re port of the compromise, but the statement was made upon the authority of a member of the arbitration committee of the Central Labor union, who said that terms had been agreed upon late Saturday night. If this be true, the only serious trouble will come from the team drivers' union, which has more than 600 members. . It was said by an officer of this union Sunday that there had been little progress In the way of settling ttje questions pending be tween the employers and the union, two men have signed the scale, but their names are not to be given out until tomorrow. The most serious objection is expected from the managers of the transfer lines, and fear was expressed that the trouble would involve other lines. It is understood that i he scale of the coal wagon drivers will be amicably arranged, but members of the union say that while they are willing to accept compromise so long as work is con tinued, if they are compelled to suspend work, they will increase their demand and make a fight.
