The ean then lie of mutual service to each other ami can produce marvelous results. Christianity has unquestionably lll Itn potent spell upon the soul of great nrtMs and has thUH Influenced art by Its spirit. Christianity must also own its debt to art. Working together they have bene fited and beautified the world. 'Greece fell Into ruin through the undue development of the purely ethical side of Its life." Modern Italy, Ilussla nnd Spain were alluded l as examples of this subordination of the true spirit of religion to the artistic sense In our day, "The theater, where art and beauty are enthroned. Is at Its present low level be cause It hiis not Identified Itself with the morals of Jesus Christ. Cnttl it docs It must ulwa remain whot it so largely vnnrtevllle and continuous performance. n, . L vnHnn of the esthetical sense ami the ignoring of the ethical leads surely to destruction. The great peril to Christianity nnH the moral life of man Is In the artistic fundi v Itself, unless It be wisely regulated. Art heroines evil If given the power that not belong to It." After speaking of numerous celebrities of tliin nnd other ages who have men ron ommate In their respective arts, but bank rupt, or piirtly so. In character." Dr. Her ring turned to sorlety. "Th.. world of fashion, what we call so ciety." he siild. "by reason of Its wealth ran revel In all forms of beauty, can have irtisic, dress, flowers, paintings, rich fur nishings, ran travel and can enjoy all of the most refining lnffuonres created by the artistic sense. Yet, with raro exceptions of noble men and women who are In so ciety, we find not there the spirit of noblesse oblige, no sensitiveness to The high demands of character. I need only appeal to coin mon knowledge for the proof of this state ment, without In any way passing con demnation on the Individuals composing so clety. We do not look for any great move ment for humnn welfare to originate there, or for the Inception of any of the lofty Impulses that move, man toward God. There all too often we find selfishness and the narrow view; the pagan life and example; men and women mad for pleasure, allured Into that rest of conscience that Is the forerunner of moral destruction. Boc'ety In the mass stands Indicted as being In the way of the progress of God's kingdom. Art and the esthetical has supplanted the ethtcal; knowledge of the altar of service, of God and His teaching la lost." hold of the emotions is that the mind Is pre-empted by other things. You can't have a glass full of sand and the same Rlass full of sugar at the same time. The mind can not ! full of on- tlilnr and Its oppo site nt the sainn time. It. :it to some men a lltllrt poetry, It helps them not; tell thein a Joke. It pns-.es them by; tell to them the sweetest story ever told, of the love of tSod for wandering men. and they show no Interest. These things do not affect them, for their minds are full of business. With some it is cards, with some It Is the dance, with others it Is golf, and I have seen men who loved a horse more than God. Willi the young It Is pleasure, nnd with the old other things. Always something In their minds to kee p them blind to the gospel. "I nm not here to argue as to the right of these things, but the point I want to muke is that we ought to seek the first thing first and let tho others come. 'Seek ye first the kingdom of Ood and all other tilings will be added unto you.' You know what these things are that cast a cataract over your eye and I beseech you to take them out of your life."

ECHOES OF THE ANTEROOi i LAIXCII JEW MET1IOIH3T (IMR(iK Presiding; Elder Unrit Forms t onare- icatlon In orth Omaha, The North Twenty-Fourth Street Metho dist Kplscopal church was lnunched under most favorable auspices Sutiday evening at Magnolia hall, Twenty-fourth and Ames avenue. The hall was well filled with res idents of that section of the city who are Interested In the formation of the church, which has been Incubating for some time. Trustees for the new church elected for the coming year are 13. M. Willsey, K. E. Grifflng. Gilmore W. King and Frank Whlpperman. This number muy be In creased to nine as the church grows. The board of stewards elected is Mrs. Heath, Mrs. King and Mr. Eychaner. These, with tho trustees, compose the members of the quarterly conference nnd they elected Miss King and Mrs. Eychaner as a committee on music. The first regular service will be held at the same place next Sunday with a sermon by the pastor. Rev. Q. A. Tvewis. followed by the organization of a Sabbath school. It will then be decided whether to hold one or two services each Sunday. Presiding IClder Gorst presided at the neetlng and gave the history of the move ment which led up to the formation of the church. He said that fifteen years ago a mission had been founded on the bottoms to the cast, but during these fifteen years It had not grown, as the people evidently wanted a church of their own. A lot lias been purchased on Twenty-fourth street and Iarlmore avenue on which a church will eventually be built, but not at present. The location Is a mile and a half from Trinity, the Kountjse Place church, and one mile from the Hirst Memorial church, and the location seemed to justify the building of a church at that point. North of Ames avenue are 112 people, members of the Methodist Episcopal church, only twenty six of whom are Identified with Omaha churches. The enthusiasm at the meeting Sunday night seemed to Justify the Idea that that was a good location for a new church. Baptist Evangelistic Conference. The evangelist conference at Calvary Baptist church under the auspices of the Omaha Baptist Ministers' assorlation, will begin Wednesday morning Instead of Wednesday evening, as previously announced. CGURrS DECISION IS WELCOME Local Party Leaders Pleased with the Opinion of Supreme Court on Dodge Law. LUTHERANS nOOR THEin FOUNDER Rev. Dr. Hnmmon Extols the Person ality of the Great Reformer. Sunday was commemorated as Martin ' T.uther day In Omaha Lutheran churchel. In Kountxe Memorial church Rev. J. E. Hummon preached a sermon about Luther, I and all the hymns were those of the founder of Protestantism. Said Rev. Hum mon: "Luther was the German of Germans, a superior one, eminently worthy of the doc tor's degree, a distinguished professor, who, by the eloquence and the purity of his, teachings, attracted the attention of the whole world. By the combination of his powers and hto vlrtuea he wrought a change In the affaire of the world and rendered his name Immortal. "Martin Luther's birthday should be a festivity second only to that of Christ. He was brought up In the fear of God, with the proper religious training In the home and church. In his school days he suffered from Inconvenience and want. Ho was forced to sLng for bread. "Tho question came to Luther, aa It does to every young man, what should be hla llfe'a work so aa best to serve God. He concluded to become a lawyer' because his father wanted him to do so. But he was susceptible to change In any way If U seemed to be the will of God. So Luther withdrew from the world and became a monk. Seeking to satisfy, by works of fasting, fretting and mortifying the flesh, the wrath of God, he felt that the will of Christ was misinterpreted; that re pentance la a state of mind. 'based not on fear but on love of God. God led him Into' a deeper spiritual experience, pro ductive of hope and Joy. He discovered the truth which was to satisfy men and give the 'peace that surpasseth all under standing and which the world can neither give nor take away.' "Luther noted the prevailing corruption In the church. He observed the deception and hypocrisy of those In high places. He maintained full confidence In God's word and Its power to bring the church out of the darkness that had settled around It. He would have remained a Roman Cath olic and cleansed and renovated had It not been for a single Incident. A it was, lie left th? church and stood alone before the world for a new order of things. Even the institution which lie left was largely ourirled through his act." Party leaders In Omaha who have clean politics at heart expressed themselves as well pleased with the supreme court de cision upholding the Dodge primary law. The points that were declared invalid, namely, the registration on primary day, the paying of filing fees by the candidates and regulating the form of ballot, are declared Immaterial. Some even go so far as to say that the law Is much better off without these features. The wiping out of the free provision destroys the sole argument the socialists, who brought the suit, have against the law. All parties can now come In on an equal footing and for nothing. So far as the first day's registration is concerned, few lawyers thought It was good In the eyes of the law. Before the second day's registration this fall. Judge Troup of the district court handed down a decision similar to that of the supreme court on this point. Hence pains were taken to have everyone register again, and nearly every voter who had qualified on primary day did so. As to the form of ballot, the method prescribed entailing the rotation of names caused great expense and was not looked upon as any special benefit to anyone. Men who are anxious to see clean tickets nominated for the spring election say they are glad that the Dodge law was sustained. No one can participate In the spring primaries who did not regis ter this fall. The upholding of the law means, they say, that the people will continue to have the same chance In ae lecting party or Independent candidates as they have In electing nominees. Father McNttmara was the happiest man In Omaha Sunday afternoon, the special cause for his happiness being the great at tendance at the reception given at the St. James' orphanage at Benson, The affair throughout was a most Inter esting one, esiecially the part taken by the 130 children that are cared for at the Insti tution. Tho reception was held In the main school room, which was prettily decorated In blue and white bunting for the occasion. An entertaining program was rendered by the children, beginning with a march by about seventy-five of tha boya and girls of the school, who sang to ue accompaniment of a piano as they marched In varied and pretty evolutions about the large room. Then two sweet little girls gave a pretty dialogue, and were followed by twelve girls dressed In white with blue and red sashes, who gave a graceful dance, singing an ac companiment. A recitation followed by one of the younger boys, and then a bevy of twenty-four little girls, varying In ages from S to 12, with dolls, sang the cantata, "Won't You Come and Play With Me." A recitation was given by a trio of young girls, and they were followed with the tam bourine drill by twenty-four of the hoys of the school. "Where There's a Will There's a Way" was excellently given by one of the younger boys, and then came one of the prettiest and the final number of the pro gram by eight girls dressed as vestal vir gins, who sang the "Vestal Hymn" with charming effect. t'pon the completion of the program Father McNamara brought the entire num ber of children out and Introduced them with, "This is part of my family." He said In the course of a brief address: Father McNamara Extends Thanks. "I want merely to give a short review of the work accomplished for the orphanage by the recent fair at the Auditorium and express not only my own deep appreciation. but as well that of all the friends of St. James' orphanage, for the magnificent re sponse by the good people of Omaha. We had set our mark at J10.000. The orphanage was In sore nerd, for wr had a mortgage of $20,000 and a note of 17.500 to meet, and 110,000 would go a long way toward this. ""'I want here to convey my slncerest and deepest thanks to the newspapers of Omaha for their splendid work for us. In fact, we could have done but little without their aid, and It was given so freely and loyally that we can never thank them sufficlentlv. And, too, I want to thank our Protestant friends for their unstinted patronage at all times. But chief of all do I want to thank the noble and self-sacrificing women of the several parishes of Omaha and South Omaha who unselfishly gave so much of their time to tho fair and were mainly re sponsible for its great surress. God bless all of you for your assistance." Financial Returns. A detailed statement of the proceeds of tho fair, given by( Father McNamara, showed the total receipts were 11.155.75, and total disbursements $,707.50. leaving a balance to the good of $17.448.. To this there Is yet to be added from the booths not. reported, 1300; advertising, $250, and subscriptions. $100, which will bring the- total net proceeds up to $18,098.23. Tho visitors were Invited to make a tour of the building, to Inspect the dormitories, school, recitation and work rooms, all of which were prettily decorated with blue, white and red bunting and flowers. Refresh ments consisting of sandwiches, coffee and cake were served in the dining hall, where tables were spread for tlw accommodation of all. The dining hall was also decorated with bunting and the tables were given an added beauty by a profusion of flowers lu vases. Fraternal Order of Fnalea.

They will hold a conference with the management, during which they will discuss principally the causes of accidents, and how the sys tem may be improved to make them lesj frequent. It is thought the results of this conference will be good as the men who compose it are all old men In tho service, men of sound judgment and tried ability as trainmen. It Is further thought that the conference will bring the men of the company Into closer touch with the management, aa any misunderstanding aa to the reasons for certain regulations will be removed. It is stated that the meeting has no reference to the matters of the railroad men's or ganizations, but Is simply a selection of the trustworthy employes for determining the best plans In the handling of trains and traffic. P. Mathlson, who was approached as to the nature of the conference, said: "It may result In considerable revision of present regulations, all looking to the weed ing out of those accidents due to interpre tation of orders, or to similar misunder standings.
