They Do Kot I ndrr-stand.
Bishop Worthlr.gton occupied the pulpit of
Trinity cathedral yesterday morning after a
long absence, during wnlch occurred the
death of Dean Fair. He prefaced hi eer
mon by a eulogy of the late dean.
The bishop chose for the aubject of hia
ahort sermon the call of Abraham to hia
mlaslon by Ood and atrove to bring to the
minds of his hearers Rome practical
thoughts. He considered that Ood, In the
old bible dnya, had called mm In a dif
ferent way from now, and that we are so
materilallatlc In the present day that we
forget that Ood la the same forever. Ood
was a spirit whom no man has seen at any
time, and the sayings that such a man
talked face to face with Ood In no way
changed the fact that Ood was the unseen
ruler of all. In whatever way Ood had
called Abraham it had been a call to the
sou I.
"Human nature alters little In centuries."
aald the bishop. ' "It Is true, beloved, that
God has spoken some time to all of ua. The
voice may have come to us In church, and
we have felt that we would be lifted from
ourselves; It may have come In slcknesa or
to the- deathbed, or It may have been
heard beelde the grave of one tenderly
loved ( In many waya It may come. It bids
ua leave sin. the aecret sin that la bringing
lis . low; It bids ua leave the companions
that, are weaning us from what Is good In
life; It bid us rise above the observance of
worship, whereVn the soul sleeps, which
takes the.plnoe of worship; It may have
told us to take our place aa man and worker
of. God, to bear the stamp and seal of
heaven. We cannot tell to what degree of
ml nance the voice-may call us.
Dare Kot Answer ftod'a Call.
"I know why many good and honorable
men never rise above the surface In the
ervlce of God. They dare not. be singular;
they dare not answer the call of God and
go. nut to duty and sacrifice. We will not
leave our comfortable ' alna. Other voices
have more power over ua than the voice of
God. If grlof calls, we say, 'I come';
when ambition speaks, I come," we
answer; but when Ood speaks we close our
eyes and turn away our heads; coward
hearts give the response we dare not give
tn words, 'I will not!1 "
The bishop closed with a fervent prayer
that all might heed the voice when It came.
It la supposed that the present mission of
Bishop Worthlngton Is partly, at leaat, to
Institute an adjustment of the matter of
rectorship of Trinity cathedra, which has
been without a regular rector since the
death of Dean Fair. Pursuant to the cus
tom Id the Kplacopal church Bishop Worth
lngton selected a list of names from which
the church waa to choose a paator, but no
choice was made from thla list and It Is
supposed that further action will be taken
by the bishop to fill the pulpit.
nEY. D. K. TIKDAI.IS FAREWELL.
Preaches Last Sermoa as Paator of
Trinity Methodist.
Tter. t. K. Tlndall preached probably Ma
last sermon yesterday aa pastor of the
Trinity Methodist church, whose pulpit he
haa filled for three yeara. He has accepted
a call from the First Methodist church of
Great Falls. Mont., but will not leave hia
present 'charge until November 17.
Tho church waa well filled and the con
gregatlnn waa especially attentive and
aympnthetlc. but tha minister did not rfer
to his ponding departure. Ha preached from
Corinthians, Iv:I7, saying In partt
"Tho bible la a book of one major and
many minor keyg. nearly every book: In It
having a special key of lis own. In Roman
It la faith; Thessalonlana, hope; Philllp
plana, Joy; Epheslan. heavenly things; In
Second Corinthlane. afflictions. But redemp
tion In Christ like a scarlet thread runa
through the whole bible. And If other
worlds than ours are Inhabited and like
ua have fallen. It Is a beautiful thought
that Christ waa aa 4 silken cord let down
from heaven through all the universe to
ave all worlds of spiritual beinge.
"Paul waa no pessimist, he believed the
golden age waa ahead and not behind, but
he often spoke of hia affliction and trlala.
He had troubles worthy of mention, strifes.
Imprisonment, false brethren, shipwreck,
the care of all the churches and Anally
martyrdom. Wo all have our trlala. Little
children have theirs In the way of re
atralnta and prohibitions; men and women
of middle life and strength have thlrs tn
the 'way of burdens and cares, and old folk
In Infirmities of body and mind. Nation
have trlala, aa China Is now having trou
bles with the powers; England had hers
with South Africa' and America hera with
Spain and the Philippines. Society has Its
trouble u with the saloon, gambling, so
cial evU. dishonesty, self-seeking. But
Paul save of all affllctlona that they are
light and but for a moment aa compared
with Ood glory, which He will reveal to
and In ua. H created a great pair of
scales and weighed the affllctlona of life
and God's glory and found an Infinite dlf.
ferenc on the aide of Oods glory or In be
ing a Christian, aa compared with the life
of the sinner.
"It paya to be a Christian even If It were
only for thla life, but all the mora since
tha glory la eternal. I waa at the World's
tair. Chicago, for only four brief daya, but
It paid me to go. I went all the way to
Asia, a few years since to spend leas than
a month tn the Holy Land, but It paid ao
sweet were those holy memories, ao grand
those aacred sights. A man once told me
that he went all the way from America to
Asia to atand a- few momenta on Mount
Plegah. where Moses and the Almighty
atoqd side by skle. I once climbed my
weary way to the " loftiest pyramid In
Egypt for Just a few momenta alght-seelng
and pure breathing, but It paid. It waa a
grand view. The Mohammedans will make
long Journeys to Mecca at great coat of
money and Buffering, which often results
In death. They think It paya. But tha
Christian's glory Is to be eternal. Paul,
landing on tha highest peaka of Intellec
tual and Inspired vision, could see no end
to this glory. Christ, more at home In the

net world than thla. In eternity than time,
said our weight of glory la to be eternal.
How grand the thought.. The Joye of earth
are short-lived and the thought that they
must soon end makes them an admixture
of sorrow and Joy. I used to visit my old
home In Delaware every few years to see
my mother before her death. When we
met It was tears of Joy and when we parted
It waa teara of sorrow; and the porting
sorrow seemed to outweigh the meeting
Joy. But the Joy of heaven la eternal. It
will ba a day never to he followed by a
night; a Joy never displaced by sorrow.
There Is where I want to spend my eternity."
NEED HOMES MORE THAU BAUDOT.
Negro Problem Dlaeaeaed by Worker
frona the Sooth.
The negro problem waa discussed by
Dr. A. Hickman, who has done missionary
work In the south, at the Hanacom Park
Methodist Episcopal church yesterday
morning.
'The black man Is not In this country
by reaaon of his own choice," said Dr.
Hickman. "I will not undertake to eay he
la here by divine Providence, but will
say that he Is here by permission of Provi
dence and because of the selfishness and
cunning devlcea of his white brother. And
now that he la here he la giving us trouble.
We do not know the divine plan In con
nection with this matter, but the fact Is
patent that the black man ha got more
good out of the slavery than haa the white
man.
"Tho great question which faces us Is
what are we going to do with the black
manT John Temple Graves' project of
aendlng them to a foreign shore la merely
a waste of time. God Is raising up a peo
ple which will be of help to Him and to
the Anglo-Saxon race In civilizing the
world. Don't be afraid of the black man
attempting to dominate. The Anglo-Saxon
race haa always been the master in every
land and contest and always will be.
"Our trouble then Is that we are too
selfish. What I plead for la that we give
the black man a chance. He can't crowd
u much, except in rare Instances, be
cause he hasn't that foundation qr capa
bility that Is the distinguishing character
istic and all powerful trait of the Anglo
Saxon. But I will Bay that any race of
people which make good soldiers, such
aa . the black man haa made, will make
for good In thla country. And In others
he can serve hia God and ua by becoming
missionaries among hi own people. And
right here I want to aay that the great
est missionary field In the world today
Is just across the . Mason and Dixon line.
The negro Is naturally either a Baptist
or a Methodist. He likes the Methodist
fuss In its experience meetings and take
to us like a duck to water and can serve
our church by administering to the want
of hi people In the south.
"The black man doesn't need the ballot
nearly bo much a he needs a home. And
then It 1 wrong to say that the ballot
Is a birthright. Instead, It Is a gift and
there la no senae 'In the argument that
every man ha the right to vote. There
are some men who should not be per
mitted to vote and you know that a well
aa myself."
The speaker held that the unmention
able crime of the south are committed
by the offspring of mothers who are mere
brute and that none of the black who
have been afforded half a chance have
ever proven guilty of such offenses.;
RELIGION ADAPTED TO STRONG.
Teaching of Christ for Mem, Says
Dr. Moore.
Modern commercial life 1 Impregnated
with lying and dishonesty, according to
Rev. T. V. Moore, D. D., of the West
minster Presbyterian church. He bo told
a Toung Men's Christian association audi
ence at Kountle Memorial church yester
day afternoon.-' Further, he said that the
alna centering In avarice and covetouineaa
ware much more reprehensible In the tight
of Ood than ordlnarr ln of tho flesh. His
talk had for It subject "I Religion for
ManT'' Ha said, Jn part:
"There seems to ba a feeling on the part
of some men that teliglon ia for those
possessing weakness and that It lacks con
sonance with full, rounded, oomplete mam
hood. Arguing against this sentiment It
may be said that the bible seems to have
no suspicion of any such view and tha
thought never seems to have been sug
gested to the great teachers of Christianity
or to Christ. John appealed directly to
strong men. Bo did Paul. History show
that great men like Luther, Cromwell,
Washington, Lincoln and tha American
now filling the presidental chair are Indi
vidualities In whose hearta tha faith In
Christ occupied a strong place.
"There la nothing In this Ufa of tempta
tions so strong a safeguard a tha love
ffor Christ. Religion appeals to men be
cause they are strong not weak. It re
quires strength to continue and courage, to
begin a Christian life. A man cannot be
a true Christian and be ' a moral coward.
As for Christianity paying commercially
little need be said. It haa proved Itself
so often that argument la superfluous."

POSTAL CARD CAMPAIGNING
How John 0. Yeirr Contributed to the
- Gaiety of Omaha,
UNIQUE METHOD OF SOLICITING VOTES
All Sorts of Cards, with All Sorts of
Devices aad laserlotloos Seat
Oat by tho Popallst Caa
dldate for Jadsre.
For art and Ingenuity and sprightly hu
mor the recent campaign of John O. TcLer
populist nominee for district Judge, wa a
distinct Improvement on anything of the
kind aeen before In Omaha. Mr. Telser
did not make a single speech,' did not hire
a single hack, did not contribute a cent to
a campaign fund. He merely Issued postal
cards, and he Issued so many of them that
every child In Omaha of school age haa a
collection. The card are bo pretty and
have such funny things printed on them
as to cause them to be the most desired
philatelic Impediments in these part.
It Is an axiom In Omaha that other per
son may have Idea, but they can never
hope to have them half so fast a John O.
Telser. That 1 the reaaon, perhaps, why
Mr. Telser cannot give a complete list of
the varieties Issued. He admit ha doe
not know. One man has succeeded In get
ting 128 different cards together, each hav
ing some soothing remark about the can
didate, but he Is lure he ha not corralled
them all.
Editions Were Naaaerows.
For two weeks prior to election no news
paper ' was half so busy aa Mr.. Telser.
Assisted by a chorus of very pretty young
women he worked like mad In hta New
Tork Life building office, getting new edi
tion In the hand of hi fellow cltlien.
The elevator man said that for ten rfava
there was an avalanche of fresh card
every Hour. It waa aald that Ideas for text
came so fast to the DODiillst candidate that
he had to arrange wireless telegraph con
nection with Ma several dosen publisher.
Unlike the condition that prevails In most
newspaper offices the nrlntera never r-ollw1
for "copy." When election day closed It
was said that every printing house In town
had pile of copy for John O. Telser noata.1
Sjrda which they were unable to use. . .
Some of the card were In color and
other plain and they varied greatly In the
tenor of the context, depending, presuma
bly, on the mood of the phyacologlcal mo
ment that Mr. Telser penned them. Par
ticularly noticeable waa the luck nf the
word "populist." It appeared, that the few
jjui,uiiBiu in mo district were not making
any organized effort to elect Telser and
evidently he Concluded he owed them noth
ing. The serious political effect of tho
cams is not easy to- determine, but Yelser
received lm vote In the district, as
against the other populist nominee Judge
Doane'a 2,164. This would look aa though
the distribution of several hundred thou
aand pretty noatal tarda vieMMt inat mi
ballots In four countlea for Judge Doane
used orthodox method.
HI' Farewell Shot. ,
The final Telser card might bo taken as
an apology and ha been preserved for
posterity. It explain some thing and In
the Devery-Tom-Johnson-Yelser rampahjn
Ing things always have to "be explained, aa
the mere count of the rote never quite
suffice. ' Tho last card, bearing the Inevi
table Yelser feature I addressed "To
Knocker Only" and Is. Inscribed: "De
Luxe Edition Limited. By John O. Tel
ler." The remainder of yie crocheting Is
like this, very neatly done;
A few old dyspeptic specimen of degener
acy have ventured out from behind their
shadowa to whisper that I am not conduct.
Ing my campaign with sufficient "dignity"
for an aspirant for "Judicial honors."
These creeping monuments of nineteenth
century antiquity don't know that there
Is a much difference between a campaign
and a judicial decision as there ever was
between a horse race and a prayer meet
ing.. I am running a campaign Just now
and I think I know my business. When I
am elected judge these knocker will find
out that I am not afraid to protect the
rights of poor men as well as other men
from these sanctimonious fakirs.
In conclusion, I desire td say that I didn't
pick out this particular office It was a
ease of "the office see king the man." .My
choice haa always been lor governor. . ,
Some Samples of Hia Art,
A card showing two pickaninnies devour
ing a watermelon and Mr. Telser In the
distance (without any watermelon) oald;
"The race question of the south Is not to
be compared with the race, of John O.
Yelser this election. It you are not for him
for Judge please do all you can against
him. Don't be a mackerel." .
Rlnehart'e Indiana were put to a new use.
In all their glory of paint and feather they
decorated certain cards and thla waa
th printed burden: "It's a mistake! John
O. Yelser la not a "bad Indian.' He U a
good Indian and he la not a dead one.' He
haa one bad Indian trait though begging
(for votes)."
What "beautiful walka and driveways,
Omaha, Neb.," have to do with the Judges
of the Fourth Judicial district no one
know, but Mr. Yelser had thla Inscription
on certain edition under charming tinted
vlataa of our local scenery. Further 'neath
his features In miniature was printed: "A
souvenir of Omaha when John O. Yelser
ran for Judge against the field In the fall
of 1903."
Other eard bearing the plain, unvar
nished Itkenesa of John O. read thiswise:
This I not Judge Baxter. It Is John O.
Yelser. He would like the Judge' place.
If he can't have It, Mr. Sutton's or Mr.
Troup's will do. He Is running against all
three of these gentlemen and everybody
else who Is In the way.
Vote for John O. Yelser and two other
Judges and then stop. It don't make any
difference what ticket he ia running on,
as we must have harmony and a nonpar
tisan bench.
The above picture of John O. Yelser Is
not natural, as he Is not sitting down now
with his hair combed smooth, but he Is
running. He expects to beat some of the
low men on the republican ticket and some
of the high men on the democratic ticket.
He la against the field, but can get along
pleasantly with anyone who may happen
to be elected with him. No one is obliged
to vote for seven Judges If they don't care
to vote for over two or three. Investigate
thla suggestion.
May Be Prof! table,
Ths Yelser postal card business was about
the aole comic thing In the campaign. He
admitted that he had no hope whatever
of election, but merely wanted to see how
many votes he could poll by projecting
just that kind of a campaign. The coat, he
asserts, was not one-fourth what the re
publican Judicial candidate were assessed
by their committee, but he admits that re
sults probably made It worth the money
for them. Aa for him It la pretty safe to
say that he will loos nothing by his at
tempt to entertain tha reading public, a
other men than Mr. Yelser have found that
for a period, at least. It pays to be eo-
oentric.

Grace Cameron Is coming out next sea

completed opera, by her brother, C. 1L
Kerr.
Probably this la Interesting to a great
many persons In Omaha. Certainly It was
very Interesting to a alender. sweet-faced
young woman who stood shyly at another
sister shoulder yesterday afternoon while
It waa being told. Her eyes were still
wide with wonder, but In them was the
spark of ambition that omene a eorry

of Falls City, Neb.

one of the doctor' children whom th stage
nann t claimed. He Insist she must re
main at home. She dutifully says she will.
But yesterday she came up for a week'a
visit and was permitted to be behind the
scenes during the Initial performance at
the Krug of "The Beauty Doctor," a mu
sical extravaganza, which her brother, C.
H. Kerr, wrote and largely composed, and
In which her sister, Daisy King, carries a
very important and generously applauded
part. Now her resolution to remain at
home must atand th strain of a very great
longing to do a the other of the family
are doing.

The three formed a pleasing little group
In the wings, after the matinee. Mr. Kerr
is a young man made aged by the serious
ness wun wnicn ne is wooing the muse.
Daisy King, oriental in her heautv hut
distinctly American In her vivacity, looks
upon ner brother with a feel ni of confl
uence and pride as obvious aa It Is pleas
ing, but betrava lust a little alarm at tha
arduous way he works. And Miss Blanche,
standing In the shadow of her Idolized
pair, showed as plainly as ever a young girl
mowed anything, that the anclauHe riven
the two had fanned her own musical am
bitions Into a flame which, as before re
marked, omens a strenuous atmirirla whan
her father e&says to quench It. In beauty
of face and symmetry of figure, nature'
endowment of her haa been mora nnmiu
even than of either of her two sisters. In
addition, she haa a voice. Now she has
an ambition. Verily. Dr. Kerr will hnv.

with pride. His new opera for his sister
will have many touches of pathos and
seriousness in it. beglnnlnc with tha u.

whose accompanist is another waif, a boy
born to the violin. Another scene will show

Vlvaeloas Mlas K lag's Oa Sorrow.
. Daisy King Is taking life less seriously.
Just about everything look good to her.
And, barring Falls City, whither she goes
each year for recreation, parental minis
trations, and that degree of Increased
avoirdupois incidental to home cooking.
Omaha- looks beat of all. Mrs. Herman
Kountse, who was Grace Cameron's first
teacher, waa also her sister's, ' and the
prospective call upon Mrs. Kountze la a
principal source of delight for Daisy King
tn her present visit.
She haa many other friends here, too.
some of whom date back to the daya when
she sang In local church choirs.
And to be quite candid and personal, this
was a source of just a little embarrass
ment for Mlsa King In th serenade scene
of tho second act of "The Beauty Doctor"
yesterday. In this scene It fell to the lot
of Miss King to wear the long hose and
th loose cloak of the wooing lover. It Is .
Mlsa King' first season In unsklrted '
stockings, and when she went on yesterday
before a house known to contain several '
of her old Intimates, she went with the ,
crossed fingers of th theatrically super
stitious. Afterward ah Bald she "didn't
exactly enjoy It, and felt a trifle bored," '
which. In view of what nature haa done
for Mlsa King, must appeal to the specta- '
tor of esthetic temperament aa a very un
necessary and unjustified embarrassment.
Mrs. C. H. Kerr, who has been with her
husband's present piece, appearing In the
dancing specialties of the Cardownle sis
ters. Is now with her father at Falla City,
taking treatment for an Injured ankle. She
expecta to rejoin the company here to
morrow, after her enforced vacation of
two weeka.
Boys Arrested for Theft. .
A reDort was received et police headauar-
ters last Friday afternoon that some lads
were pilfering a miscellaneous lot of articles
rrom a ouuaing locaiea at cignieentn and
Harnev streets and formerly owned by the
lato Tom Murray. Suspicion pointed to
Will Uorsey, Jim Foreman, PUk While
and Murtln Delnre, who were arrested last
evening. The boys are from 12 to 15 years
of age. and, it Is reported, they have dis
