With all the pomp and splendor of the
Roman Catholic ritual the feast of Bt. Fhll
emena, the patron saint of the i;:cese of
Omaha, was celebrated at Bt. rhllomenae
cathedral yesterday morning.
Solemn high mass was chanted by Rev.

Corby, Mies Ella Croft. Miss Genevieve
Croft and Miss Mary McBhane.
The gospel of the day, the fourteenth
Sunday after Pentecost and feast of Bt.
Philomena, was from Matthew vl, H-34, In
clusive. Father Btrltch took for his text
the thtrtythlrd verso: "Hut seek ye first
the kingdom of God and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added unto
you," and said, In part:
"It would bo hard to find another text
which so completely sums up and so beau
tifully expresses the spirit of Christianity
s the words 'Seek ye first the kingdom of
God and Ills rlRhteousness, nor could we
find an Individual In whose life It Is so well
illustrated as In that of the dearest of
saints, Philomena, the story rf whose
tender devotion and love of God Is well
known to you. For ftteen centuries after
her cruel death by order of the Roman em
peror, Diocletian. St. Philomena, virgin and
martyr, was unknown to the world; her
tory was nsleep In the heart of the church
and her body rested In the catacombs.
star? of Her Tartar.
"It was not until 1802 that some archalol
cglsts came upon a gravestone bearing
certain Inscription and emblems In which
they read the story of her torture, and In
the lily of her virgin purity, of her loyalty
to her yow and of her martyrdom at the
tender age of 18 years. Though the finding
of the tomb of Philomena was considered
Important, no attention was paid to It, nor
the story it contained, except by a few
learned men, until 1806, when a great and
learned Italian missionary, who had met
with wonderful success In converting many
souls, visited Rome for Inspiration and to
select a saint to whose Intercession he com
mitted his work. Standing before the body
of Bt Philomena he told the keeper of the
acred relics that he desired it for his new
chapel, and so earnest was he that atten
tion was attracted and the devotion to Bt
Philomena was proclaimed.
"It was at this same time that a young
. artist, who knew nothing of the Inscrip
tion found upon the tomb of Philomena,
' had a vision, or a dream, In which he saw
, the Ufe of the lily-like virgin with whom
: Diocletian became enamored, but whose
Sove, when he found that Philomena had
Vowed her virginity to God, turned to hate
and rage, and who after he had caused her
death, could endure Ufa no longer. The
tame story was at the same time told by a
'holy priest both confirming the Inscrip
tions and emblems on the tomb of Phllo-
taint Tells It a. Una.
, "But to a nun of Naples, who had prayed
aarnaatly to Bt. Philomena, was the whole
story of her Ufa revealed, the saint coming
and talking-to her. Philomena was the
daughter of a king and queen In Greece
who, until her birth, were childless. They
were told by a Christian from Rome that
If they became converted to the true faith
and prayed for a child that their faith
would be rewarded. When Philomena was
probably 11 years old her parents became
Involved In a war and went to Rome to In
tercede with Diocletian for peace. The em
peror saw the beauty of Philomena and
offered peace and to guarantee the safety
of the parents If they would give him the
child, not to be dishonored, but to be his
wife. The parents consented, and urged
that Philomena accept, saying that as the
wife of fhe emperor she could plesd for the
Christians. But the maiden refused, and
then was put to , the torture. But she
emerged from the wounds of the arrows
and of the scourge more beautiful than
aver, being healed at once, and at last
Diocletian was forced to order that she be
beheaded, for ' finding that he could not
convert her he feared that she would con
vert him and the Roman cltlsena to Chris
tlanlty.
"After the devotion of 8t. Philomena was
proclaimed many miracles were wrought at
her shrine, and the devotion to her has
been growing and spreading In all parts of
the world. We are taught by her life to
seek first the kingdom of God' above all
other things."
The ceremonies closed with solemn bene
diction of the blessed sacrament.

Watch Listens to Rv. Tost.
The new gowned chorus of St Mary's
Avenue Congregational church drew the
yes and filled the ears of the worshipers
at Sunday morning's service. The choir,
which numbers thirty, presented a pleasing
appearance In Its black gowns and sang In
a way whloh showed effects of the train
lug received at the hands of Mr. Kelly,
The old chorus choir was disbanded for the
summer relaxation and Its place taken by
the quartet, which has furnished most sat'
lafactory summer music. During this time
Mr. Kelly was engaged to direct the new
chorus, which should begin Its work in the
fall. This Is the first Congregational
ohurch In the city to adopt the choir gowns
and the after -service comments heard were
all In favor of the Innovation. The evening
service will hereafter be dispensed with
and the 4 o'clock vespers substituted.

RATAL DAY OK THE M1SSIOJT.
liver Anniversary of Church of Bt.
Phillip tho Deaeoa Is Celebrated.
The silver anniversary of the founding
of the mission of the Church of St. PhlUlp.
the Deacon, was observed yesterday at
that church, lit North Twenty-flrst street.
Rev. John Albert Williams, the rector,
young man of high Intellectual attain
ments and a pleasing speaker, made the
ddress.
'The Episcopal diocese of Nebraska was
organised thirty-five yean ago by Mis
sionary Bishop Clarkson," said the min
ister, "and ten years afterwards began
the organisation of the Trinity church
mission by Dean Mlllspaugh, In the bar
room of the old Coasens hotel on Ninth
street with but five attendants, three boys
and two girls. The colored population of
the city of Omaha then scarcely exceeded
200, but today it is ten times that number.
The mission was organised under the most
discouraging circumstances, because of the
prejudloe against the colored people. But
Dean Mlllspaugh was unfaltering; In bis
work.
"The mission flourished with varying
success and failure for some years. The
prejudice against it was difficult to over
come. It was finally determined that the
only possible way that colored people oould
be brought into the Catholic or Episcopal
churches was through priests of their own
blood and color. This same rule was and
has always been observed in the progress
of church work. The two sister com
munions of this country are compelled to
recognise the colored people. Twenty-five
years ago the wisdom of collecting the
colored people of this community to enjoy
and participate In the beautiful service
of our church had its Inception September
1878, In that old Cossens hotel barroom
on South Ninth street, and It has sine
born good fruit It was the date of the
founding of the Church of Bt Phillip the
Deacon.
"Dean Mlllspaugh of Trinity Cathedral
recognised the necessity of enlisting the
Interest of a colored young roan by the
name of William A. Green whom he took
Into his own study and helped along in
the work. He was subsequently ordained
a deacon, and eventually a priest and took
charge of the work which he oonducted
for many years with varying success. The
meeting place of the mission was then
changed after a while from the Cossens
hotel to a hall on Sixteenth street. The
Indifference to the establishment of Dean
Mtllspaugh's mission by his parishioners
was felt keenly by the dean, and he deeply
regretted his inability to enthuse them In
this mission work. Other faithful souls
were agitated In the work aad the mission
again changed Its location to Nineteenth
street between Burt and Cuming atreeta.
This new location began to figure as a
national circumstance from the fact that
the property was owned by the wife of
President Cleveland. An unsuccessful tit-
tort was made to Induce Mrs. Cleveland
to donate the property to the mission. This
was In ISM. The name of the mission was
at that time changed to that of Bt. Phillip
the Deacon, whloh It has since borne. How
ever, during that year the mission met
with many discouragements. Bishop
Clarkson died, and Dean Mlllspaugh was
called to St. Paul. Rev. Mr. Green be
came discouraged and removed to Topeka
Interest In the mission was again revived
In 188S when Bishop Worthlngton lent It
his encouragement - and assistance, and
Rev. John Williams, rector of St Barnabas
church, gave the mission one service each
Sunday, in vss the mission again sprang
Into new lifo and in 1890 It was moved to
Its present location. Ground was broken
for the present structure In July, 1892, and
In November of that year the new church
was dedicated. The entire cost of the
church was 11.000. The present rector took
charge In 1891, about twelve and a half
years ago." '
Additional 1 services were observed dur
ing yesterday afternoon. Addresses were
made by Bishop Mlllspaugh, now of Kan'
sas, Rer. John Williams, rector of Bt
Barnabas church, and others.
FAITH THAT IS JCSTIFIBD.
Bishop Mlllspaaath Exhorts Hearers
to Follow Esaaapla of Abraham.
Bishop Mlllspaugh of Kansas stood be
fore the people of Trinity cathedral at the
Sunday services, feeling, he said, as though
he was their dean. This was a home - to
him, he told them, and he asked the people
of the parish to help him be of service
to them In whatever ways he could during
the week or ten days he would be here.
The bishop preached In the morning on
the promises of immortality given in ' the
Bible and on the faith, such as Abraham's,
which gavs them their true value. The
text was the fifty-sixth vera of the eighth
chapter of John, "Tour father Abraham re
Jolced to sea my day and he saw It and
was glad."
The Infidel points out the vastness of the
Christian claim," said Bishop Mlllspaugh,
"and asks, where doee religion get its be
liefs T How does It persuade Its people that
its dead Jesus Christ has power to change
mortality to immortality? Where does the
Christian's book teach . of an Immortal
soul?
The Old Testament la filled with Its
promises; the Psalms and the Prophet
abound In the declaration of Immortality;
Innumerable paaaagea show the persons
who were assured of a Ufa to come. Listen
to Job: 'I know that my redeemer Uveth,
band that He shall stand at the latter day
upon the earth: and though after my skin
worm destroy this body, yet In my flesh
hall I e Ood, whom I shall seo for my
self, and mine eye shall behold, and not
another.' In these promise rests our Im
plicit belief and on these w pin our faith.
The mode of realisation we do not know.
We are In the dark a to God' means, but
w are In the light as to God' promises.
"Abraham was Ignorant of the exact ful
fillment of the promise. The patriarchs
knew nothing of the meana, but they held
a right and saving faith. A faith that was
Justified. Though thing seem Incredible
there is no cause to shake' our faith. How
could our fathers have faith In the
prophecies that were performed? Could
anyone believe that s virgin shall conceive'
and that the child oould be the Almighty
Father? Did God require the church to un
derstand? Only believe!
'The church today 1 subjected to the

"He hides Himself until the restoration

CAIHE OF INDIA'S PLIGHT.
Congested Population aad Kstrava-
arance in Living, Ray Rev. Wilson.
The pulpit of the Knox Presbyterian
church, Nineteenth and Ohio streets, was
filled yesterday by Rev. E. M. Wilson, a
returned missionary from India, who spoke
on the condition of the people and the
country In general. He spoke of the de
plorable condition of the people, stating
that the Impression was prevalent through
out the United States that the British gov
ernment was responsible for the manner
In which the people were living.
"This," he said, "was a false Idea the
people had gained In some manner. The
real cause Is the Immense population of
2.464,000. extravagance of the people, spend
ing often as high as two years' wages for
a wedding, and borrowing money at an
enormous rate of Interest. Wagea In India
are down as far as they possibly can be
put. As an example, laborers are hired at
the rate of 4 cents a day.
'The recent famine In India was caused
by the failure of the rains and the careless
living of the people, who have practically
no regard for the amount of any debt con
tracted. The progress of the mission work
In the far east has been wonderful in the
last ten years, there being at preeent over
970,000 Proteatants among the natives. The
number of Christiana by the census of 1R9J.
showed a little over (59.000, making a gain
of almost the whole number at that time.
"The Presbyterian church supports forty-
nine missionaries In the field In India, which
represents about one-fourth the total num
ber of ohurch workers there at present"
Rev. Mr. Wilson has spent almost nine
years In the field doing mission work snd
expect to return In the fall to India, going
by way of Seattle.
Dr. Herri nar on 5orthnela.
The First Congregational church resumed
regular evening services on last Sunday
evening, Rev. Mr. Herring, the pastor,
having returned from his summer vaca
tion. The choir was present in run lores
and all present enjoyed a talk on North-
field and Its summer conferences In lieu
of a sermon. A description of the old
home of Moody, the great evangelist, and
the Institutions he so generously founded
and fostered was given, and an - account
of the services of eminent workers along
the line of Bible study was rendered.
Especial praise was given the Rev. Camp
bell Morgan, now In oharge of the great
work, and who Is now considered by so
many as the greatest living preacher and
exponent of the scriptures, and In closing
the speaker eulogized the Bible as the
most potent factor in the world's redemp
tion, as so Influential In uplifting humanity,
causing the miser I to become benevolent,
the weak and erring to be strong for hu
manity's sake, and the Book of Books the
power of God unto salvation.

What St. Loala Is and Has.
St. Louis is fast becoming one of the
largest commercial and manufacturing cen
ters of the world, and has therefore much
of interest to visitors aside from the com
ing World fair.
It has a number of mercantile houses and
manufactories ranking first In their re
spective lines, the name and fame of which
have spread throughout Civilization.
Probably none other of these will appeal
so strongly to sightseers, from points both
of Immensity and general interest, as will
the plant of the Anheuser-Busch Brewing
association. When, in 1865, Mr. Adolph
Busch took charge of the concern which
was then known under the firm name of
E. Anbeuser Co., It was one of the
smallest of its line in this country, but
under Mr. Busch's skillful guidance Its
business Increased phenomenally. New
buildings sprung up like mushrooms, but
on . foundations as strong as fortresses, so
that now the handsome red brick buildings,
trimmed with granite and white atone, pre
sent a beautiful city In themselves. From
an output of 1,000 barrels in 1885 its sales
Increased to more than a million barrels
per year In less than 80 years.'"':'..

BIG WAVE OF MIGRATION LAST YEAR
In bat Scant Minority of Cases Are
Transfers Dae to t'harrh Rela
tion aad Death Take
Oaly Few.
Omaha has seen many changes In Its
pulpits during the last two years. Two or
three prominent resignations come to the
mind of all, and others are remembered
chiefly by those of the congregation, but
a glance at the church list In the city di
rectory of 19o2 will bring out mors convinc
ingly than any personal recollections, the
migratory nature shown by the clergy.
These resignations and pulpit calls have
not been confined to any single denomina
tion, and were not due, except with one
Methodist to any regulation of the church.
The three most Important churches per
haps to lose their religious guides within
this period ; lately have been Trinity
cathedral, the First Methodist and Kounts
Memorial, and In the case of each the filling
of the pulpit has been a matter of difficulty.
The vacancy In the pulpit of the leading
Methodist Episcopal church was, as most
church people here know, caused by the
death of Rev. Dr. A. C. Hirst In the early
summed of 1902 In the east, where he had
gone In hope of relief. Dr. Hirst had long
been a popular minister and It waa with
considerable difficulty and only after long
searching that his successor waa found.
Rev. E. Comble Smith waa the man. Ho
first entered upon the duties of his office In
the lata fall of the year and still continues.
One More Last Call.
t
Trinity cathedral was likewise robbed by
death of the services of Its venerable rector,
Dean Campbell Fair. While this loss did
not actually occur until last winter, the
dean had in reality been unable to fill the
pulpit since the spring of 1902 and as a
supply during this period Rev. R. E. L.
Craig took charge of the cathedral. The
latter's final departure from that charge
for California was within the last two
weeks. The parish has for some time been
divided' over the calling of a new rector.
It has been understood for several months
that Mr. Craig would not remain and the
vestry men have made frequent trips to
various points In search of a suitable suc
cessor. Rev. Eduard Frederick Trefz left his work
In Kounts Memorial church April 23 last,
to accept a call In Birmingham, N. T., in
the pulpit of another denomination. Since
his departure the Memorial church has
been without a pastor.
Seward Street Methodist church lost its
pastor, Rev. C. N. Dawson, after the con
ference of last year and received in his
place the retiring presiding elder, Rev. Wil
liam Gorst from Nellgh. Rev. Mr. Daw
son was one of the longest resident min
isters in the city at the time of his de
parture. He went to Wayne.
New Pastor for Plymouth.
Plymouth .Congregational church, Twen
tieth and Spencer streets, has Just called
a pastor In the person of Rev. Clifford
Snowden of Beerly1 Hills church, Chicago,
atfer being without an acting leader slnoe
the spring months. Rev. F. A. Hatch,
who - had occupied the pulpit for more
than a year, resigned at that time because
of ill health and hWune last left the city
for his old home ln; New Jersey.
About the last of fcrhe old guard to leave
was Rev. JY B. Foster and the senior
pastor of his 'denomination of the First
United Presbyterian'' church, Twenty-first
and Emmet streets.-' In June he received a
call to the Franklin Street United Presby
terian church of ' Johnstown, Pa., and
August ' 15, his resignation was accepted
here. His successor has not been chosen.
The Second Presbyterian church has made
a recent change in" Its preacher, but was
not without a head long. Rev. R. M.
Stevenson, preached his last sermon April
26 of this year, having resigned because
of the pressure of his work for Bellevue
college. His successor. Rev. Newman Hall
Burdlck, came here July 12 from Cedar
Rapids to begin his work.
Shortly after the national meeting here
of the Christian 'church the North Side con
gregation of that denomination, holding
services at Twenty-sixth and Grant streets,
received the resignation of its pastor, Rev.
W. T. ' Hilton, who had received a call
from the Christian ' church of Sioux City.
Rev. J. H. Blcknell came during November,
1902, as his successor.
Rev. L. M. Kanns Leaves.
Rer. L. M. Kuhns of Grace Lutheran
church preached hi last sermon for that
congregation January 13 of this year, he
having been honored with the national sec
retaryship of tho .Luther league. The
church was without a pastor until May,
when Rer. X. L. MeUck took up the work.
Bt. John's Episcopal church at Twenty-
sixth and Franklin streets lost a popular
rector when Rev. C. H. Young departed.
April last for Chicago to take charge of
Christ church. No rector has been since
then regularly In charge of St John's.
Castellar Street Presbyterian church was
for some time without a preacher. Rev.
Wlnthrop Allison resigned in June of 1902
and his successor. Rev. Walter Reynolds,
did not take up the work until January 10
of the present year.
McCabe Methodist Eplsoopal church, at
Fortieth and Farnam streets, received a
new pastor. Rev. W. K. Grey, sfter the
conference of 1902, end lost Rev. - H. O.
Kemp, who had served for the preceding
year. First German mission of the same
denomination was left without a leader
early In the winter of 1802 by the tragic
death of Rev. Mr. Rabe. The First Ger
man church of the same denomination had
no pastor during ths early part of 1902, but
Is now In charge of Rev.. John Koehler.
Monmouth Park church has In the last two
years changed from Rev. A. A. Luce to
Rev. L. K. McNeil. North Omaha mission,
which waa formerly supplied by Rev. H. O
Kemp of MoCabe church, now has its own
minister in the person of Rev. J. Q. R.
