BISHOP HAMILTON ON CITIES
Prelate of Methodist Church Point! Out
JTeeJ for Work.
GROWTH OF BUSINESS OF THE CHURCH
Oatafca Metkadlss VMos llwri Some
Instructive and Interesting; Facts
Concerning; the Extent of
Organisation's Efforts.
BIhop John W. Hamilton, D. D., LL.D.,
ot San Francisco, Cal., president of the
Nebraska annual conferences of the Metho
dist Episcopal church, spoke at the Han
scom Park Methodist church Tuesday
evening on "The American Municipality."
Rev. John Randolph Smith opened the
meeting - of the Omaha Methodist
union with prayer and Charles doss as
hairmaa made a short address.- present
ing Rev. S. VT. Jennings aa the first speaker.
Dr. Jennings said that he cherished the
thought Of the five year that he spent In
Omaha as pastor and presiding elder as
among the happiest of bis life. He Is now
engaged in looking after the division of
profits ef the book concerns run in con
nection with the Methodist church. These
profit! go to the support of the conferences.
The division this year was (10,000 par month.
which is a gain of 110,000 on the year over
last year.
Dr. John T. MeFarland, secretary of the
Sunday School union of New York, was
the next speaker, being put on the pro
gram In place of Rev. Robert Forbes, who
wgs unable to be present. He said: "The
Sunday schools of the Methodist churah
turn into the treasury of the missionary
societies over one-third of the moneys thgt
they receive or over 1500,000 for last year.
The profits of the Sunday school periodicals
were pO.OOO of the $120,000 of which Brother
Jennings spoke. The Sunday school should
not be regarded aa a subordinate work in
tho church."
Breadth Dae to the West.
Bishop Hamilton said: "No more Impor
tant meeting could be held this evening
than a meeting of the Methodist union of
this city. It is difficult to find people large
enough to distinguish the important move
ments shaping the destlnlea of the race.
The extensive west has broadened me, has
broadened me much more than the narrow
confines of the New England states would
have permitted had I remained there.
"We are migrating people; Eden is far
behind us and where are Greece and Rome?
We know London and New York, but we
have yet to learn of San Francisco, the
coming city. The sons of New England are
making a new nation on the Tactile elope.
"The American cities rule the continent
today and are the makers of this republic.
The charge that these men who eome Into
a great city are eome to tarn the world
upside down Is true today. The large men
are not those whose names are on every
topgue or the men at the head of the gov
ernment. The nation is made in spite of
these men. The men of God are the real
frontiersmen who have Ud the onward
march of civilisation.
Assimilation f h. ,,,,,;
One hundred years ago there were no
western cities. Now the composition of
most of these eitlee is made of those who
come In to nil the vacant bouses. Pne-third
Of the population of this country (a made of

"A Gtrl of the Streets" at tho Kragr.
A well known writer of thrillers once
said, referring to his own works, "You
oan't give It to m too raw." The man
who wrote "A Girl of the BtreeU,"
which opened at the Krug last night, cams
very near doing It, though. His piece is
certainly underdone, but Jf t is ever even
half-baked it will be a wonder, for none
of the modern thrillers equals it In posM
bill tie , Jt contains a little something for
everybody, and then some. Even the
players themselves seem beWlldsred at the
many climactic points attained, and the
most blase of watchers wonders with In
creasing interest which of the startling
episodes Is to be the elhnal for the cur
tain. The company works hard. In fact
It is Impossible that any member should
loaf when tue action about them all Is so
tumultuous. They must all work or be run
over by the Inexorable rush of events that
contribute to the progress of the play.
The result is a continual ovation from
thoee who like to be thrilled, mingled with
hearty laughter from those who like to
be amused. The play will be repeated at a
matinee this afternoon and again this even
ing,' after which it will be on Its way,
spreading light and adding to the gaiety
of the "tall and uncut."

DICK SICK BORROWS A RIG
Colored Soda Fouutala Attendant
Stnrte a Commotion Through
Ills Hnsle.
The manager of the Hanscom Park phar
macy. Twenty-ninth and Woolworth ave
nue, found himself In a peculiar predica
ment last night about 8 o'clock when Frank
Kurdman of South Omaha came into the
store and demanded that the proprietor of
the drug store surrender a horse and buggy
which he claimed had been stolen from In
front of the place by one of the employes.
Kurdman eame up from South Omaha yes
terday evening to pay a visit to some
friends In the Hanscom park neighbor
hood, and hired a rig from an Omaha
liveryman, tying the horse In front of the
drug store while he paid his visit.
Dick Sick, the colored boy who tends
the soda fountain In the drug store, ran
short of one of the very necessary In
gredients for making the warm drlnka
for which he had many calls and, seeing the
horse and buggy, thought that It would
be no gfeat offense to borrow It for a short
time while he ran downtown for the neces
sary supplies. While he wss gone the
owner of the horse and buggy returned and
found hie riding paraphernalia eadly miss
ing:. In the drug store no one knew of Slck's
escapade and all were at a loss to know
Just where they stood. Kurdman tele
phoned his troubles to the police station
and Captain Mostyn was about to dispatch
Officer' Dan Baldwin to the scene to get
the stolen rig when another message was
received saying that the missing buggy had
been returned.
"Ah didn't mean to steal the horse that
belonged to you at all," said Sick, "Ah
was Just In a hurry." Kurdmsn wa will
ing to accept this apology, but Sick didn't
know how close he came to being ar
rested. ELBOURN TO CERTIFY VOTERS
City Clerk Will Try to Straighten Ont
One of the Dodge Law's
Kinks.
City Clerk Elbourn hae decided to take
a bold stand and try to reconcile the Dod
primary law provisions regarding; registra
tion of voters with common sense a far
aa It I within Ma power, by Interpreting
the law In Its broadest light,
"Beginning Wednesday," said the clerk.
"I shall Issue cerMflcates of removal to
voter from one precinct to another as haa
been done In past years to voters who have
moved from one precinct to another since
the last registration. Otherwise they will
be deprived of the right to participate In
the primary election, I shall issue affida
vits of registration to all residents who
have come to Omaha since the Inst regis
tration and who wish to vote st the pri
maries, and the same to men who have
become of age since the last election. Of
course new residents must have lived the
legal time In the state, county and precinct.
These end the first voters will be allowed
to state their party affiliation and this will
entitle them to a primary vote If my auth
ority extends that far.
"The Issuing af certificates and affidavits
will he continued up to Saturday night at
10 o'clock.
"I am taking this stand of my own voli
tion and because I think It Is proper and
Just and fully warranted by the conditions.
Serious deficiencies. In these respects exist
In the Dodge law which must be corrected
somehow."
