to prophecy that Bellevue Is going to have
a good deal to do with Omaha in the near
Mture.' Maybe some dtty Bellevue will
unne the city of Omaha. Hut. levity
aside. Bcllevue is going to make a splendid
suburb, where families will locate in order
to give their children the advantages of an
education.
"Need for "religious Instruction as a
foundation for morals is imperative today.
No codo of morals can stand exceot upon
the solid foundation of religion. Kducatlon
la a good thing, yet after all we must not
forget that education without religion Is
like a ied shaken by the wind. The
necessity for Christian colleges Is In the
deninnd for Christian leadership. Today
we need moro leaders in the field of
Christianity and peace, n. ro so than do
we need leaders In warfare. In order that
our natlen may continue greut.
Advantages of Small School.
"Forty per cent of the groat leaders of
moral movements In the world come from
the Christian colleges, the small colleges,
and for this reason do' these colleges need
the supp'irt of the communities In which
they are located. It is so with Bellevue
college here nt the very doors of Omaha.
Of the eight graduates of Bellevue college
last year fix have taken up study for the
ministry In theological seminaries.
't have been east recently, and 111 a
modest way have succeeded In getting
some money tor Bellevue. But the Prcsby
terlan college board says In the not far
distance Bellevue college must receive Its
principal support from Omaha und vicinity.
To this end we a?k your prayers and finan
cial assistance, and especially that you
become members of the Bellevue College
league."
Prof. Wadsworth then told of the pur
poses of the league and had subscription
cards distributed through the audience that
more definitely explained the purposes of

Pastor of Koontic Memorial Observes
Second Year of Work.
The second anniversary sermon of Rev.
J. K. Hummon, pastor of Kountio Me
morial Lutheran church, Sunday morning
hps delivered to a very large audience
from the words, "l'pon this rock I will
build my church and the gatos of hell Bhall
not prevail against It."
"Two years ago today," be said, "I spoke
on 'Anxiety for the Church,' and I re
call my feelings, thrilled with Joy mingled
with fear and wrought with a sense of re
sponsibility. I called your attention to
the grave dangers threatening the very
existence of this mighty Institution of
God, the fslia conception of faith, errors
n doctrine becoming so prevalent; the
battle of the supernatural, the tendency
among church people to cxnlt the social
Idea above the spiritual, the pronenrss
to run the church on club lines and ac
cording to the ways of the world; fhe
Importance of sound doctrine, of propa
gating a correct faith and carrying for
ward the specific work, the fulfillment of
the church's Ood-glven mission.
"We have worked with perfect peace
and continual harmony and. In the main,
effectively; had pleasure in the growth of
numbers, despite the strong difficulties
surrounding us an evidence of Qod's lead
ership. Division is the work of the devil.
Any disturbance which mars and destroys
power and progress-In the church Is born
and engendered In the depths of hell.
There Is no factional strife In our bounds.
Our advantages of situation, the equip
ment of a modern church building, the
magnitude of our opportunity, In the very
center of a great western city, augurs a
most prosperous and successful future.
"Ard now what constitutes a true
church? What is Its specific work? We
must not have extreme liberalism; often
the true character of the church is hidden
under the quicksands of mere fancy or
foolish sentinientallsm. There sre but two
ways to travel In life's pilgrimage: 1 lie
broad and narrow way. But two thtiias
to believe: The right and the wrong. 1
am a C'hrtstlnn by the graco of God. I
know I am saved today for my sins have
been forgiven. I am also a church man.
I am a Lutheran Christian. I believe
every true Lutheran Is a Christian, but
not that every true Chrustlan Is neces
sarily a Lutheran. The sweet charities
of the Christian religion are wrapped up In
no one particular denomination.
"The mission of the church Is do the
will of the Father In Heaven: to tell the
world of the power fo salvation through
Jesus Christ."

"Better Things for the Friends of God,"
was the subject of the discourse delivered
by Kev. C. C. C'lssell, D. D., at the Hans
corn I'ark Methodist church Sunday morn
ing, using the text, ' Ijiunch out into the
deep."
"There is a broad theme in these words
and a vastness of depth in them, and al
though they are small words they have a
Urge meaning. For a sailor to launch out
means to leave friends and home for an
Indefinite period. We are sailors and fish
ermen In the name of God, who said, "Fear
not, for henceforth ye shall be fishermen
of men." The Master calls all men tc
their life work and with the whole world
to choose from It is a significant fact that
He chooses a majority from the followers
of the sea for his disciples.
"Some say there Is no need to go to
church nowadays; the time could be better
used at home In reading some good book.
This Is a scaly reflection of the preaching
and pulpit of the day. The Intelligence of
the congregation ns well as of the preacher
ha., been raised and the preacher Is hut
one of the many bright people in the
church. He must talk to men of special
training In all lines. Is the trouble all
with the pulpit? Is It not partly with the
man who cones to church with his mind

of how to Increase his worldly goods? It
Is too easy to load tipon fhe preachers

W. H. l(iissell, who became a memlier of
the board of directors soon after the erec

the meeting. For a few years after lsyu, he
said, the association passed the darkest
years of Its history, and though very few
persons ever realized It, the association was
for a long time In Imminent peril of losing
the building. People were not Interested In
the organization as they are now, and they
cheerfully and promptly turned down re
quests for pecuniary aid.
William Fleming, one of the most ear
nest workers of the early days, paid a warm
tribute to P. C. Hlmrbaugh. former presi
dent of the association, who gave tlli.noo to
the present building, or about one-tenth
Its cost. He said:

and .vfe'iward for paying so much, for the
offer was accepted, but time has proven
his wisdom and foresight. Before the deed
was signed the association could have sold
the site at an advance of $15,(1)0, whiln a
year ago the property, which cost with
the building approximately IllS.nflO. was

Maxiiiiliau .1. Sonuenscheln of Prague,
Bohemia, arrived In the city Sunday morn
ing and took appartments at the Millard
hotel with Mrs. Soniienscheln. Mr. and
Mrs. Sonnenscheln are finishing a tour of
this country. They came direct from San
Francisco and proceeded to West Point.
Neb., Sunday evening to visit Fred Son
nenscheln, mayor of that place und a
brother of Maxmilian Sonnenscheln.
Mr. Sonnenscheln Is the senior member
of the firm of Sonneneehcin Landesinann.
one of the oldest Bohemian hop firms, and
by special decree appointed hs purveyors
to the Imperial and royal court of Austria.
"The annuul exportation of Bohemian
hops has been Increasing every year." said
Mr. 8onnenschlen yesterday. "American
brewers particularly are buying our hops
In large quantities. Last yeur eur hop
exportation amounted to over li'.OOO.nx). and
this year bids fair to run over that sum.
Of course, you know we have the best hops
In the world. The hops are raised lit a
section of the country about the size of
Douglas county and surrounding the city
of Baax."
Yesterday was Mr. Sonnenscheln's first
visit to Nebraska. He will sail February
20.
While In the Southern Pacific ticket office
at San Francisco last week to engage a
drawing room to Omaha Mr. Sonnenscheln
j became a self-appointed colonel for a few
minutes. Incidentally working a neat little
ruse and becoming persona non grata with
a major of the T'nlted States army.
Just at the moment when it became Mr.
Sonnenscheln's turn to be waited on by
the clerk at the ticket office the major It
question broke out of the ranks of wuitiiiK
travelers and engaged the attention of the
clerk, who Bieet.d the officer with, "Well,
how do you do. major, what con I do for
VfcO?"
Mr. Sonnenscheln glanced at the drawing
room and sleeping car charts, noticed that
only one drawing room and two upper
berths remained unsold. WHiited the draw
ing room for himself and wife, and got It.
Drawing himself up to his full height,
Mr. Sonnenscheln addressed the clerk in
tones which knocked the major off his pins.
"I am a colonel, here are my transpor
tation tickets and money: 1 want that
drawing room. Besides. I am next In line,''
said Mr. Sonnenscheln in the clerk.
While the clerk made out the drawing
room ticket the major glared at "l'l i"."l"
Sonnenscheln. who returned the glare with
! a little smile of self-satisfaction born of
having outwitted a buttlnsky major. When
:j major's turn came he had to take one
of the upper berths, although he wanted
the drawing room. On the train Into Omaha
the major and colonel did not speak as
they passed by. The major looked several
times as If he wanted to bite the colonel.
Mr. Sonnenscheln explained that he was
not a colonel, but merely pressed the title
i Into service at the psychological moment
to the comfort of his wife and self and
amusement of a crowd In the ticket office.

Second Time Becentlj Homicide it Caugat

CLUE FROM WIFE OF THE DEAD MAN
Henry Brown's wldnir, When Told of
Murder, Recalled Host be Heard
William Hartee Mil at
Her House.
Fur Hie second time this year In Omaha
a song betrayed a murderer to the polico
when, within four hours after Henry
Brown was stab1ed to death by William
Bartce ul a North Eleventh street, the
latter was placed under arrest by Sergeant
Vanous, Detectives Mitchell and Davis and
Officer Sandstroin at the home of Henry
Coffey, 1J19 Cuss street, at 4 o'clock yester
day morning.
Conmcted wltii the capture of Brown's
murderer there was need of considerable
detect ivo work, and In placing the man
behind the bars In so short a time the po
lice of Omaha have added another clever
deed to their credit.
Both of the men were colored. They went
to the home of Gewrge Duncan. ZDo North
Eleventh street, at 11 o'clock Saturday
evening. Hartee was a stranger to tho
rest of the company, which was composed
of a number of colored men and women.
A can of beer was sent for and drank.
Brown and his friend. Bartce. seemed to
have a bone to pick between themselves,
and a heated quarrel began when It was
proposed that Brown get another can of
beer, which he refused to do. Before this
Bartee Is said to have Induced Brown to
give him his knife, und when, still fight
ing and quarreling, the men were forced
out of the room and down the rear stair
way. It Is supposed to have been this knife
with which Brown had been cut. when he
staggered back tip the stairs nnd showed
his wounds. Within a few moments Brown
was dead.
Dnncnn Notified Police.
Duncan notified the police. When they
arrived Bartee was Tiowhere to bo seen
and none of the witnesses could say what
his name was nor where be lived. They
had never seen him before. The police,
therrfore, had little to work upon. but.
knowing Brown worked nnd had a family
in South Omaha. Ca;italn Dunn sent De
tective Mitchell, accompanied by Duncan,
to South Omaha to find out what they
could. The wind was cold and blowing
hard nnd the two had nothing but an open
buggy to make the trip In, but they wasted
no time in getting to South Omaha, where
they were Joined by Captain. Rlnqulst.
They made a tour of lodging houses with
out success and then went to the home of
tho widow.
There was but one clue by which they
could enable Mrs. Brown to Identify the
man who was with her husband and that
was a song which Bartee had tried to
teach the children while at Duncan s home
that evening. It was only a little lullaby,
which he said he had taught Brown s chil
dren, and as soon as this was told to the
bereaved woman she . emembered Fair
child, or Bartee, both ot which names he
carried. She also told that he lived at,
the home of William Coffey, In Omaha.
Cntcb Him Asleep.
Mitchell immediately returned to Omaha
I ana. witn the aid of the other officers, sur
rounded Coffey's house and found Bartee
asleep upstairs. He offered no resistance,
j He did not deny stabbing Brown, but maln
i tained he did It In self defense. He has
j been known by several names Falrchlld,
j Davis and Hobo Mike besides Bartee. The
police have information that Bartee killed
' a man in Tftxas last year, and Duncan
! said there w-as reference to some crime
' in the quarrel between the two men. When
j questioned on that matter yesterday he
i would neither affirm nor deny it. The In
: quest over Brown's body probably will be
j held this afternoon, although Coroner
Bralley had not been able to make the ar
I rangements last night.
The other instance when a song betrayed
I a murderer was that of John Doyle, who
! killed John Kelly last month. In the de
, scrlptlon of his assailant, Kelly said that
1 when drunk ho was apt to sing the Irish
' melody, "Sklbbereen," and It was hearing
; the strains of that ditty floating out from
a saloon door In South Omaha that caused
I Officer Morton to step In and place the
j singer under arrest. It was Doyle, the
murderer.
