"Never had human hope fallen so far as

expiring breath on he died on tho cross,"
said Dean Heecher In his morning; sermon.
"Their cherished plans and hopes for the
futuro seemed to have vanished. They
saw their .beloved lender cut down at the
moment when "ictory seemed almost with

forlorn despair. Their lord and saviour

"At that time little of tho soul was con
ceived beyond the shell. The revelation
of tho knowledge that there was an after
life was a revelation of one of the most
sublime truths. Mud not Christ risen, our
teaching ls In vain and your faith Is vain.
Where philosophy ends In Its wisdom,
where science fails In Its fathoming, Jesus
Christ comes and illumines. Man may say
ho Is not afraid to die, but no man living,
unless he has In his heart that deeper
consciousness of the life of the soul, can
say thut with truth.
"The sun that went down In blood on that
memorable day of Ills suffering haa risen
again in the splendor of a new day. The
world no longer Is shrouded In the hopeless
ness of unawakenlng death. The grave Is
no longer sealed; It has become the portal
through which the soul passes to a higher
life."
A cantata by Shepnrd, "From Sepulcher

A new departure In the celebration f

combination meeting held yesterday tnnrn

Methodist Kpiscopnl church. It was a
union young people's meeting, and was at
tended by members from the Calvary Bap
tist, the First United Evangelical, the
Second Presbyterian and the North Side
Christian churches. Lr. W. O. Henry pre
sided and made an nddress. The attend
ance comfortably filled the league rooms.
The services were of very simple char
acter, consisting In addition to the usual
musical and devotional exercises of a read
ing of the testimony given In the four
gospels of the resurrebtlon of Jesus, and
ft part of the fifteenth chapter of First
Corinthians, In which the real meaning
and Importance of the resurrection Is ex
plained. The alternate verses In these
selections were read by the young peo
ple. Dr. Henry delivered a short address, In
which he said the agreement of the testi
monies afforded singularly conclusive
proof of the resurrection of Jesus, and
dilated on the real significance of the
event and how much It meunt to every
one and especially to the professed Chris

thousands of years before the coming of
Christ, and gave an Interesting account
of their symbolic use of scarabs and of
the custom of placing these symbols, ap

heart of the dead. They also appear to
have believed In tho resurrection of the
body, and that they believed the bigger
the scarab, or beetle. Inclosed In the. heart

person thus favored.
Dr. Honry said that recent discoveries
and Investigations seem to Indicate that
the veritable tomb In which the body of
Jesus was placed has been discovered.
He snld that during his visit to Pales

If they nre well established he had the
satisfaction of seeing and of circumstan

country In the vicinity of the tomb and
the various openings In the surface gave
It the aspeot of a human Bkull, and
this singular appearance gave rise to the
designation of th place of Golgotha. He
said that his close view of the scene was

I Christ's life. Is It possible for me to shake
off this lower nature, to rise with Christ
out of passion and vulgar nature Into the
sweeter and better above. Yes, that Is
my hope. Before our souls start upward
we will have achieved something for each
other. We go higher and higher to please
dead. The resurrection was and Is the
keystone of his mission. Without it His
mission fails of Its purpose and all His
claims are open to doubt.
The first fact proved by the resurrection
is that there is a God and that the bible
reveals the fact. There Is no religion In
God. I believe It la not possible for one the world that has a God like the God
who has felt the love of God- to stand
still; It must be either downward or up

the advancement you have made wfth.
your chances. No man ought to sit
of the bible: a God of love, of holiness
and of compassion, who gave his only be
loved Son that wo might have eternal life.
The second fact Is that Jesus came from
God as His special messenger and that His
message Is without error. Jesus said that
the doctrine Is not mine, but of Him that
sent me. If he had not proved his claim
that he shou.d rise from the dead it would
disprove his claim that he was the mes
senger of God and spoke for Him. The
third fact Is that the resurrection proves
that Jesus was the Son of God. The whole

God's Oreat Plana Christ's Mission
Illustrated by Rxample.
In a sermon that scintillated with many
beautiful thoughts, Rev. 8. D. Dutcher,
pastor of the First Christian church, spoke
ycBterdny morning of the great construc
tive work of God, using the work of the
National Benevolent society as the basis
of his discourse.
"Christ said he came Into the world
not to destroy, but to complete, to ful
fill, which Is God's great eternal plan,"
said the minister. "When Christ appeared
among his people, he found a religion
hampered with traditions and ceremonials.
Ho could have destroyed that religion, but
instead he rounded It out and used his
efforts to complete It.
"Conservative work demands sympathy,
Intelligence, magnanimity, liberality and
hope. We should lie quick to see evil and
os quick to attack It, but quicker to see
the good '.n all things and all persons.
Some par?nts bring destruction to their
children by comparing them odiously with
the worst children of the neighborhood,
thus -destroying the better Instincts of the
child, instead of building up these In
stincts by pointing out and cultivating the
better qualities. Like the little spear of
grass that battles with the chilling winds
and lifts up its head under the warm
distilling dew, so the child responds to the
tender loving care of the parent, teacher
or Christian worker.

CHRIST AND THE COMMON PEOPLE
One Important Lesson Tangrht by His
Life and Resurrection.
The altar and choir loft of the First
Methodist church were beautifully adorned
with Easter lilies and palma, commem
orative of Easter Sunday. The services.
musical and devotional, were especially
appropriate to the day and occasion and
were attended by a congregation com
pletely filling the seating capacity of the
church. Rev. E. Combie Smith spoke on
the simplicity and beauty of Chrlst'B life
and His love for the common, people from
whom He chose His disciples, and among
whom he exercised the greater part of
His ministry. Dr. Smith said:
'We are all prone to linger over the
memories of our early home lives. These
scenes of the olden days are fragrant with
the sweetest of memories. Was It not so
with Christ when He showed Himself
for a third time after His crucifixion to
lis' diclples at the sea of Tiberias, where
Simon, Peter, Thomas, Nathan, the sons
of Zebedec and two other of His disciples
were fishing fruitlessly and where Jesus
said to them 'Cast the net on the right
side of the ship and ye shall find.' His
disciples may have expected His return
elsewhere, In the room where the last sup
per waa eaten, or in the Garden of Geth
semane. But Instead He came to them in
the common places of life, and when they
saw Him to know Him He was cooking
the fishes that they might eat. He
showed an Interest In their common voca
tions. The lesson of His whole life was
one of keen sympathy and fellowship..
"It is difiicult to recognize the benefits
of common life sometimes, but there is
more holiness In the dusty highway trod
by His unsandled feet than in the lofty
cathedral. Great churches are not His
monuments, but His sarcophagus. Too
much display In this modern day seeks to
hide Him In our sanctuaries and cathe
drals. Let us let out to tho great common
people this Lord and Christ we adore.
There la too great a contrast between the
pictured mercies of Christ on our church
windows and the religion of our altars.
Christ Is the common people's friend. How
many of us need that lesson He
taught the fishermen of Tiberias, to cast
our nets on the other side of the ship,
ana mus nna in Him the blta.-,lng and full
nesa of our needs?"

The decision of Justice Brewer of the
United States supreme court guaranteeing
to Indians who have allotmenta of lands
the rights, privileges and , Immunities of
cltlrens, with the liberty to purchase llfiuor
without restraint over a bar, or In such
quantities as may suit their capacity and
Inclinations, suggests the fact that the
government will save about $7,000 per year
In Nebraska alone through the decision.
Since 1900 about 38 per cent of all the)
criminal cases In the United State dis
trict court for the district of Nebrnj'ka
have been bootlegging cases or cases grow
ing out of the sale of liquor to Indians.
In tho last four years there have been
tried 361 bootlegging cases, or an average
of ninety per year, covering the three
terms of the federal courts during the year.
The cost of theae caws before reaching
the federal grand Jury were: For service
by United States marshal, $1,777.72; fees of
United States commissioner and court
clerk, $6,214; fees of wltnespes before United
states commissioners, $4.2S8.7B. Tills would
make a grand total of $15,280.47.
There are approximately five witnesses
summoned to testify In each bootlegging
case. The approximate mileage and wit
ness fees paid each of these witnesses
before tho grand Jury and the district
court for Wch case is $40, which would
make a total cost to the government of
$14,440. This amount Is exclusive of the.
$16,280.47 paid at the prellmttery stages of
the cases before they reach the grand
Jury or district court of the United States,
making a grand total of the four years of
$29,720.47.
Results of the Trials.
Of thc;e 361 cases in the last four years,
there have been 230 convictions, 105 pleas
of guilty and twenty-Blx acquittals, which
does not Include a considerable number
of cases that never got beyond the grand
Jury.
Justice Brewer's decision will not only
effect a saving to the government of about
$7,000 per year, but will deprive the sheriff
of Douglas county of an annual revenue
of $2,500 or $3,000 for tho keep of federal
prisoners sentenced for bootlegging or
awaiting hearing before the grand Jury or
district court. 1
Another effect will be to give Deputy
United States Marshal John Sides, field
deputy for the Indian reservation, a good
deal of leisure time, as Infractions of the
liquor Bales laws by the Indians will now
have to be tried in the state courts, except
in cases, where liquor Is taken on to the

who have crowded the postoffice corridors

He whs wanted at the city hall." To find
another office boy like John McKeough,
the superintendent thought, would be as
difficult as to find the traditional needle
in a haystack. Mr. Cooley added: "Ho
walked In here quietly five years ago. He
was never In the way, but If anything was
wanted he knew where to lay his hand on
it. Then the finance committee raised his
salary because he waa worth It. John is
ready to work nights and holidays."
Speaking for himself the young man
said that upon graduating from a city
school In 1S99. at the age of 14, he applied
for the Job of office boy when he heard
that the boy who had filled the place was
leaving. "During the first year," ho said
"I received $4 a week. .Then came a raise
to $20 a month. When I got bo I could
help In the supply work I was given $50
a month. My other raises came to me since
last April a year ago. I waa given $. $8o.
and last week my salary reached the figure
of $75. I think I am doing very well for
an office boy." In contrast with the comic
opera notion of office boy a notion based
uioo the cigarette and dime novel taste
a.(iposed to be universal among his tribe
this Chicago youth Is ambitious to be
come either a pork packer or contractor
Stories of success In worthy lines are not
half so picturesque as they ought to be,
It is not strange that the ordinary, lmag
(native office boy ahould prefer to become
understudy to Nick Carter., Even the old
Sunday school heroes were offered
brighter career than that of general con
tracting.
Methods of Senatorial Orators.
Some of the best orators of the senate
never think of J-Islng to make a speech of
any Importance without thorough prepara
tlon and' rehearsal In advance. Senator
Beverldge Is one of those who will not risk
their reputations by extemporaneou
speeches. Senator Depew always prepares
his speeches in advance. He commit
j them to memory and comparison show
that they are usually copy perfect. Sen
ator Spooner will often give long study
to a subject on which he ia to speak, bu
he never goes to the trouble of writing out
what he proposes to say. Senator Foraker
follows the same policy.
