The college at Grand I.ilnnd Is a denomi national Institution and Jrns established In lM. Tir. Fatherland has been president of tho college since 193 and under his direction the endowment fund has Increased from a vi ry small start to KO.oaO.

The facilities and accommodations are Inadequate to care for the rapid Increase of the attendance and It hns become abso lutely necessary to enlarge the buildings or hold In check the success won after many years' effort. Dr. Sutherland gave an In teresting history of the struggles of those who have Identified themselves with this Institution, and how from a small begin ning It has earned the confidence of the people and grown to become one of the notable educational centers of the state. Dr. Sutherland pointed out how closely the In terests of the college are Identified with those of the Baptist church and urged thnt an Institution that was succeeding bo well In the education of the young people should not lie permitted to he handicapped by the want of the necessary facilities for carry ing on the work. He gave a statement of exact purposes for which he desired JSO.ono and made It clear that this sum would little more than meet the pressing demands of the present time. PRAYKIl IIKM'STO I MIERSTAXniXG llnlly fomninnlon with God Seeded (or Christian Living. Rev. Peter Munson of Lincoln occupied the pulpit at the Swedish Methodist church, Twenty-seventh and Seward Btreets, yes terday morning. He spoke from the text, Colosslans II. 6-7: "An ye have therefore received Christ Jesus, the Lord, so walk ye with Illm. Rooted and built up In Him and established In the faith as ye have been taught abounding there with thanksgiving." Dr. Munson, who, by the way. Is a pleasing and Impressive pulpit orator, spoke In the Swedish language, and much of the earnestness of his elo quence l necessarily lost In an Imperfect translation of his remarks into English. He said In effect: "Prayer Is the essential to a perfect understanding of the practice of a Chris tian life. By prayer, which Is communion with God, one Is brought close to God and to Christ. His faith Is strengthened by rrayer and Its answering effect is to anchor him more firmly to faith In and love for the Tord Jesus. Belief in Christ Is tho acceptance of Christ, and frequent prayer Is necessary to keep ono In con utant touch with Him. It opens his under standing to a better undentandltiff of what Christ would have him do. Prayer Stimulates one to a better understanding of tho New Testament. As a guide for all our actions and to teach us the way to a pure, exalted and perfect life, both here and hereafter, the New Testament is the greatest and only guide. From It Is derived every moral law, every noble pre cept and every example that Is worthy of emulation. It appeals to the head, to the heart and to the soul. It teaches of the anMlty of mother, home and heaven, and leaves nothing untaught that Is needful for the welfare of the world and Is the Ilghr that directs the way of Christ to the life everlasting. Take It to your heart, and as ye have therefore received Christ Jesus, the Dord, so walk ye with Him. Take His yoke upon you. He will help you bear It. Go to Him In prayer. He will not deny you. He yearns to plead with God for you and to lead you to the throne of everlasting mercy and Joy. It needs but the asking to receive His blessing." Pl'T KXKItGY IVI'O CIIIMSTIAMTY Laarararile Are Not Helpfnl to Them selves or the Church. "Whatever a man does in this world, un less It Is linked with God, It Is effervescent and avalleth little," said Rev. Robert Yost, pastor of St. Mury's Avenue Congregational church, In his sermon on "The Follies of the Wise" nt vesper service yesterday afternoon. "In reality my subject Is only half named; It should have been "The Follies of the Wise and the Wisdom of the Fools," continued the minister. Rav. Mr. Yost had In consideration those who ore worldly wise and who bend every effort to accomplish some end or purpose. "Somo business men put more energy Into one week's business than many Christians put into their whole lives' trying to get closer to God." said the speaker. "In days of old runners In races would train hard for ten months before they could enter a race, and having entered only one RESTOREDHIS HAIR Scalp Humor Cured by Cuticura Soap and Ointment AFTER ALuElSE FAILED "I was troubled with a severe acalp buuior and loss of hair that save me a great deal of annoyance and inconven ience. After unsuccessful efforts with many remedies and so-called hair tonics, a friend induced me to try ' Cuticura Soap and Ointment.

In this con nection Taul referred to those who worked for corruptible crowns, and then showed us the wisdom of striving for a crown of glory, one that will be everlasting and Indestruc tible. "Kven as In the days of old. when there was no place for the languid runner, so today the languid Christian cannot expect to win the race. Christ said, 'If Any one will come after Me let him take tip his eross and follow Me.' And to follow Christ meant self-restraint, discipline, sacrifice. To those who faint not In following In Ills steps an everlasting life Is promised. "Some of us center our efforts too much on the things of this life, often falling to realize that the things of earth are merely stepping stones to grander things above." MHIO WORK 1 SOtTII AFRICA Rev. Francis K. Rates Tells of Condi tions In Rhodesia. "All the girls In that school had to eat was eornmeal mush twice a day with a spoonful of sugar to make It a little less tasteless. The school wad crowded Willi these poor girl wives, run away from their lives of degradation, and we had to turn them away for there was not enough for them to eat. The native teachers said to them, 'They are poor In America and can not spare us any more money for the school, tell your sisters we cannot take them.' But tho girls wanted to do some thing for the work Of God, and were not satisfied alone to pray. They consulted to gether and came back Hnd said they would give up half their sugar so that more girls might be taken In. Then they went out and prayed and came back In and said they would give up all of their sugar the whole fifty of them. They said, 'We will take In all who come In spite of the poverty in America.' " This Is n. little Incident told yesterday at the Hillside Congregational church by Rev. Francis E. Bates, formerly of Ne braska and now a missionary in Rhodesia, South Africa. It not alone shows the hold Christianity Is 'getting on the black people, but It gives another point of view on the foreign mission contributions. Mr. Bates was sent abroad as the representative of the Christian Kndeavor societies In Ne braska and Knnsas and Missouri. Finally the Nebraska societies took up the work of supporting him alone. The first year they raised of his 11,000 salary, and last year only X. Mr. Bates asked that every member Of the Endeavor give 1 cent a week to the foreign missions; that would be enough to keep tho work going on. Mr. Bates gave the congregation some Interesting details of the missionary life and hardships In South Africa. The first American missionary entered Natal In 1835, and In twelve years so little had been done that the work was almost abandoned. Now the country Is dotted with stations. He told of a body of warriors sent on an expedition who were defeated and went off Ino Rhodesia, fearing to return to their king In Natal . These warriors founded a nation, the head of which sent to the mis sionaries asking to have them enter his country. He wanted four families there, but they could not be found to volunteer and In 1KX8, years later, when the church could furnish the missionaries, the Portu guese had come and the son of the old chief said, "Your footsteps were too slow, I already have my missionary." In his mission Mr. Bates has seven schools with 100 or BOO children In them, taught by the first dozen of children who were first put under Instruction. There are ten brick mis sion buildings put up with native made brick, where there was nothing a few years ago when Mr. Bates and his companions went there. FAXIB CROSHY, TUB SOXG WRIT Kit Interesting; Starr of the Blind Woman Who Saw God. Fanny Crosby, the blind writer of gospel hymns, was the subject in more than one Omaha pulpit Sunday. Mrs. J. P. Jlalloy spoke on the life, character and work of Fanny Crosby In Trinity Methodist Epis copal church. She quoted eminent persons who had said thnt Fanny Crosby Is the most popular and beloved song writer who has ever lived! "Saved by Grace" and "Safe in the Arms of Jesus" are two of her most popular songs. Mrs. Crosby became blind when she was 6 months old through the inefficiency of the family doctor. She did not repine, and Mrs. Bailey repeated a very pretty little verse she wrote at the age of 8 years, saying she would be happy. At 10 years old she knew a large part of the Bible by heart; at 15 she entered the New York institute for the Blind, where she studied seven years and afterward became a teacher, Instructing blind children and writ ing verses until 1858. Then she married Alexander VanAlstlne. "Safe In the Arms of Jesus" was written in fifteen minutes on the request of a man who wanted a song for an old tune and who had to make a train. She wrote often several songs In a day. "Saved by Grace" she kept for a long time after she had writ ten It before hhe made It public. "Blessed are the pure In heart, for they shall see God," said Mrs. Bailey In com menting on the life of the song writer. "This means something more pure, more helpful to us than Is generally thought; for if means tho pure In heart shall see God In this life. I believe Fanny Crosby had this vision, for ber own testimony tells us of It. She said the physician may have erred, but God did "not err In causing her blindness; and she believed her life had keen darkened so that she could best per form the work for which she was Intended. That she saw Xlod Is the secret of her suc cessit comes out In her work. How many people bless the name of Fanny Crosby. You young people here, when you look out on life and everything seems to go wrong, when all Is failure and disappointment, re member God directs our lives and do as Fanny Crosby did. Remember we do not have to cross over the river to see Him. 'And I atfall see Him face to face, and tell the story, saved by grace.'

FARMERS SHARE IN LARGER PROPORTION Ms ay Advaataicee Result from Eilst enee of the Lines, thief of Which Are Kn Joyed by floral I'opnlatlon. A4CRON, O., March a.-To the Editor of The Bee: Electricity and the genius of Invention gave us the magnetic telegraph, followed by the telephone, which aston ished mankind with a new development and marked a new era in the world's progress. Many wise and far-seeing men were slow to accept these inventions which have so suddenly changed the commercial and social conditions of the world. The people were slow to accept these mighty agencies of progress and they encountered much opposition. But how could we get on now; lit either peace or war, without the telegraph and telephone? And now tame the trolley, the electric car, the subur ban rullroad, which was to bring the people of the country Into the city and the people of the city into the country, Into a close fellowship and brotherhood. Not appre ciating the Inestimable benefits to both the town and the country that this swift and cheap means of travel secured, many people denounced and opposed It, until time and experience have proven in the great central states of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Illi nois that the interurban railroad has be come to the Interior of those states as valuable and important to the farmers and to the dwellers in small villages, In both money and luxury of living, us tho grcut steam roads have been in the develop ment of the whole country. The remark able growth of these suburban roads within ten years proved the confidence of the people In their importance and value in every district into which they have been built. As has been said, in the states above named they have become a fixed and distinctive feature of every-day life. The farmers in them are eager for more and more trolley lines and give them all kinds of support In rights-of-way and In Invest ment in their bonds and stocks, and why? Because the advantages of these electrical railroads build up towns and villages in population and business and increaso the value of every farm along their lines. Some Ohio Lines. The Cleveland & Kastern, forty miles long, which connects that city with Mld dletleld, and passing through that once dead vlliuge of Chardon, Is one Illustration out of many. Tho road has been in exist ence several years and at the time it opened land was selling at from $12 to $30 per acre. It Is now selling as high as I1U0 per acre, with a large increase In prop erty values In towns, which is estimated at from IS to luO per cent. Chardon Is now one of the most prosperous among them. It boasts a new life, electric light, tiag Btone sidewalks, and all the luxuries are now in Chardon. Lands near it, which used to sell at $.'S0 per acre, are now quoted at $100 per acre and upward, while town property has doubled In value. Prices of farm products in Chardon over those of towns that have no electric roads are notably higher. A reliable statement of the fact says on this point: Poultry, about 2 cents per pound more; milk, 70 cents per 100 higher; potatoes, 10 cents a bushel more, and eggs, from 2 to 3 cents a dozen higher." So Bays a merchant of Chardon. What has been said of Chardon Is true of Mlddletield, on this same trolley line. Hubbard is on the trolley line. The towns named above give it three competitors which are near it. But the towns have grown rapidly, land In the vicinity having risen 60 per cent in value, while the town property has more than doubled. Values of farms are increased as far away as five miles on theso Ohio trolley roads, and the state is being rapidly gridlroned with them. Interest of the Farmers. The Cleveland & Wooster electric rail way, fifty-six miles in length, has injected new life into all the villages along Its line and Increased the prices of farm products, as well as-the price of land, very materi ally. Connected with this enterprise an Incident is worthy of mention. The road, as first laid out, paralleled the public high way nearly, nine miles, from Medina to Seville. The farmers along the road con cluded that it would be an opportunity to hold up the road for a high sum for right-of-way as long as It was a corporation. The company halted on these conditions. The8 farmers a few miles west made some investigations of electric railway effects on farm values and benefits, following which they offered a free private right-of-way to the road's projectors to get Us location their way. Examination of the latter route was made by engineers and found practicable. The people along the first route thought it all a bluff, but when they saw substantial movements along the lat ter line they, in turn, offered a free pri vate right-of-way. This was rejected and they were told they had lost their oppor tunity. Yet determined to have an eleo trlc road, they offered a large cash bonus, together with a free right-of-way. This wus rejected, as the contract was closed for construction over the second line. Op portunity tapped at their door once it was not taken advantage of and was lost. Quick and cheap transportation for milk from the farms to the towns for table use Is a source of large profit. Bad roads frequently prevent farmers from reaching markets when the prices of products are highest. The electrio lines, with their low rates for package freight, baled ray. corn, oats, fruit, potatoes and other necessaries, are a great benefit to the farmer. Incidental Benettts. Hotels and liveries In the small towns are benefited greatly by visitors who go to the country from the city on business In stead of waiting for the malls. At small cost they can come and go In a day, after driving out from the station eight or ten The versatility of Ghirar delli's Ground Chocolate is the versatility of goodness. It makes toothsome cake and tempting pastry. It is appetizing as a food and wholesome as a drink. Ghirardelli's is always good and good for all. Always fresh In patented hermeti cally sealed cans. miles. Salesmen on the road prefer the trolleys, because they are cheap and swift and run every hour or two, to and from the terminal points. An Important fact In the development of business along the lines of these electric roads is that factories for mnklng various light weight goods spring up in them to satisfy local demand. With the attractive facilities of the su burban interurban railroads, social Inter course relieves the monotonous life of the farm by bringing people eight, ten and twenty miles apart Into tho relation of near neighbors. It Is for this reason, as well as for business reasons, that tho shrewd and solid farmers of Ohio, Indiana and other states give rights-of-way and are glad to take stock in the roads, that have paid good returns on the Investment. The electric rullroad Is essentially the farmers' railroad, as tho fact of experience for ten years In Ohio proves beyond any kind of question, and tho aid they give to the trolley lines because It secures mutual Interest and mutual beenflts. One Ohio farmer says: "The electric road which passes through my furm diag onally I at first considered a great disad vantage, but changed my thinking when, by the aid of the telephone and the elec tric road, I had repairs within two hours all made on my machinery during harvest time that ordinarily would have laid me out for as many days, and saved my crop." Greater in one way than all other Influ ences for the good of the farmer and the family Is the means it gives to the sons and daughters to attend, for low fates, with frequent and rapid service, the vari ous educatlonnl Institutions of the cities, and also to witness public celebrations, listen to lectures and orations, and to see eminent actors and artists at the theaters and auditoriums In the large cities. Nebraska Project. Two years ago wealthy and enterprising citizens of Akron, O., came out to Ne braska to Investigate the subject of build ing an electric road from Omaha and Lin coln to Beatrice. They resolved to drive their enterprise Into one of the richest nnd most beautiful regions on earth, and it is now a fixed fact. The road Is under con tract, will be built as rapidly as money, engineering skill and energy can build it between the two big citiea, Omaha and Lincoln. Lincoln, tho growing and pros perous political and educational center of the state, and Omaha, the chief city In population and wealth. Who can estimate the educational ad vantages of cheap and rapid transit from the doors of the farmers' families and within four or five miles of the electric road and to thoso who live In the towns and on farms along Its line? Lincoln Is the home of the State university and other great Institutions. Omaha, with its Crelghton university, medical schools, com mercial colleges. and hospitals, the great Auditorium and theaters which are the homes of art, are ortly a few of the ad vantages which the children alongjhe line of the Omaha & Lincoln railroad can have brought within easy reach at a cost far less than the people of this part of the country have ever known. The managers and principal owners of this grent enterprise are Ohio men of high character and strength, seconded by local men well known to every community the road is proposed to touch. These gentle men desire and should have the friendly co-operation and support particularly of all property holders and residents throughout the territory traversed. C. A. FRANKLIN. AT THE PLAY HOUSES. VICTIM OF SAVAGE ASSAULT Alexander Schnlts, a I'nlon Pnelflo Ilrakenian, Badly Beaten by an Expressman. Alexander Schultz, aged 24, an extra brakeman on the L'nlon Pacific, was found In an unconscious condition on the side walk on Garfield street at 4 o'clock yes terday afternoon, and was carried Into the house of Frank Perchall, 1318 Garfield street, where he was a short time after wards examined by Police Surgeon Ken nedy. After remaining unconscious for about two hours he recovered his senses and was able to give some account of him self. He was badly beaten and kicked on the head and body. Both eyes were black ened and the skin was severely bruised and cut across the forehead. He com plained of pains In his chest and abdoflleri. Altogether he was a badly used up man. It was at first thought that his skull was fractured, but a closer examination proved that the wound was not that severe. Schultz says he was playing with a ball on Garfield street when he was assaulted from behind and was knocked down. While- he lay on the street he says he recognized his assailant as Gus Chrlstlan son, an express man of South Omaha, with whom he has been acquainted for a number of years. Schultz says Chrls tlanson, while kicking him on the head and body, shouted: "You licked mo five years ago, but I can lick you now." A child of Frank Perchall says he saw the man beating and kicking Schultz and then ran away. Schultz Is unable to give any reason why the man should have assaulted him, as he was attacked from behind and had not seen him until after he was knocked down. While the Injuries are of a very Bevere character, Dr. Kennedy does not hink they are serious, although this cannot be determined with certainty for some time. It may be several days before the result of the kicks on the chest and abdomen can be determined. The assault was reported to the police in South Omaha and they are looking for Chrlstlanson. Chrlstlanson was later arrested In South Omaha. His version of the affray Is that the injured man started to assault him and he fought in self-defense Instead of strik ing -his opponent from behind.

Vaudeville at Crelghton-Orpheam. It's a laughing bill down nt the vaude- vllle house this week, with most of the fun set to music. Four acts are of this na tttre, nnd each of them Is entitled to head line honors. Jack Nurworth, who Is just what tho bill says, "the life of every party," hasn't been with us for several seasons, but we were all glad to welcome him back yesterday, and he responded to the welcome with his best efforts. Including a cute little limp, due to a case of sciatica that he expects to work up Into new Jests before the week Is over. In addition to his own way of making fun, Mr. Norworth Is about the only one In his class who sue ceeds In producing local hits that are worth while. He sung n couplo of verses last night that were Immense In their way. Cole and Johnson are better than ever. Success has not marred the ex cellence of their work, while experience has enabled them to tone down whatever rovtgh spots might have been noted In their per formance, and now they are surely refined If there Is a refined sketch In vaudeville. They have some new songs, cast on higher lines than some of their popular successes, and their style is mere than ever polished and effective. Louise Dresser sings two comic nnd one sentimental ballad In faultless manner, and Is as populnr as ever. Lydla Yenmans Titus Is something of a disappointment, although her Imita tions are cleverly done. Hayes and Heally well, they are the real laugh makers of the evening. Sawed-off Hayes has been funny for many years, even before he was fat, and Heally is good In his way, and the two In action nre about as amusing as anything could be. Drako's sheep and dogs afford a novelty In the line of animal training, while his leaping greyhound Is a wonder. The Fowlers do a clever athletic stunt, some of their tricks being extremely difficult, and all gracefully executed. The pictures are pleasing, particularly those showing the trial of the New York Cen tral's liectric locomotive. "Kerry Bon" nt the Krng. Joe Murphy's name on the bill board Is all that is needed to secure full houses at the theater where ho Is showing. He doesn't seem to get any older, but Is the same Dan O'Hara he has been for well, never mind how mnny years. See Murphy, nnd you'll think time has stood still for many a day. The humor of the good old play, "Kerry Gow," mellows with the flight of years, and the doings of the vil lage smith are as Interesting now as when they were first set before the public. Mr. Murphy can still play a tune on the anvil as be shoes the horse, and the whole piece is still presented with the careful at tention to detail that won for It Its first success. Two fine audiences assembled at tho Krug yesterday to witness the play, nnd the satisfaction felt was expressed In round after round of applause., "Kerry Gow" will be given again this evening, and on Tuesday evening "Shaun Rhue" will be put on, Mr. Murphy playing Larry Donovan, alias Red John until the close of the engagement, which Is Wednesday night, with the usunl matinee. "The Silver Slipper" nt the Boyd. Twice yesterday, and both times to audiences that were large and apparently well pleased, "The Silver Slipper" was pre sented at the Boyd. The piece has not been essentially changed since first offered here, the Interpolation of "Zanzibar" In the first act being about the only new feature. This song hardly warrants the stress that has been laid on It. Snltz Ed wards is the comediun and works like a Trojan to put some life Into the rather funeral progress of the incidents, but the story is too hopelessly British to ever be come a decided vogue In the west, where action and not repose Is the essential. Lora Lleb is still the girl from Venus, and Is very ' attractive personally and sings well. Beatrice Golden Is a good Wrenne, and tho rest of the company is fairly calculated to do what Is required by book and score. The engagement was for the one day only. Sen-Ins; Machine Bargains.

As a result many are being stricken with paralysis, locomotor ataxia, and nervous prostration. To overdo any thing is harmful, and a continuation of It will wear out the strongest man. Overwork, worry, braln-tlre, high liv ing, dissipation and other excesses and abuses waste away the most vital elements of the blood, brain and nerve forces, and disease sets In. At first there will be a general Indisposition, poor appetite, indigestion, severe headache, wakefulness and weakness In the back and spine, the temper irri table, the spirits depressed, the mem ory poor and the mind weakened, end ing in premature decline or decay. Dr. Chase's Blood and Nerve Food Is composed of the same elements that have been wasted and worn out in the blood, brain and nerves.
