To raise H,75o. In one week Is the task
of the members of the South Tenth Street
Methodist church. The conirreBatlon hs
decided that the church muiit he dedicated
on Barter day free of debt. Oould THeti
him promised o Rive n even $6,000 If the
remaining JS.7SO of debt unprovided for
he raised by the church, and the congrega
tion is .at work with an earnestness, that
can only mean success.
The campaign began with rally day
services, lasting almost all day Sunday.
Success beyond expectation crowned the
first efforts and the campaign wilt be
prosecuted with vigor until every cent Is
raised.
The name of the church will be chnnged
from South Tenth Street Methodist church
to Dicta Momurial church, and as such
will be dedicated next Sunday.
The services yesterday began at o'clock,
when the church members gathered to
welcome visitors. From 8r30 to 10 there
was a. time of hymn singing, prayer and
scripture reading, the latter by Rev. Wil
liam Oorst, presiding elder of the district.
A prayer was made by Rev. David Mar
quette, one of the fathers of Methodism In
Nebraska and pastor of the South Tenth
Street Methodist church In the days of its
Infancy. The sermon was by Rev. Thomas
Nicholson. A. M , LI D.. president of the
Wesleyan university of South Dakota, at
Mitchell.
Sella Rtaek In Church.
Joseph W. Powell of Buffalo, N. T.,
known from ocean to oc,ean a 'the most
remarkable- layman In Methodism," had
charge of the services and delivered an ad
dress morning, afternoon and evening. He
has a voice and a manner that persuades
people to -reach deep In their pockets and
bring out money for the church. He did
not ask for cash, however, but secured the
subscriptions by a plan originated by him,
and a plan unique In the history of fund
raising for religions purposes.
He bad stock certlflcatea. each one of
the face value of $38, and each one en
titling the owner to a $38 Interest in the
church. The stock Is issued at date of
purchase and must be paid for within a
' year for the smaller amounts and eighteen
months for the larger amounts. The man
who takes one share In the church must
save 10 cents a day to meet his obligation
to the church: the man who takes ten
shares must save 76 cents a day. For
the children a different plan was outlined.
By making It plain that every man, woman
and child could own church stock by sav
ing a few cents a day and by bringing
such savings In direct contrast to needless
expenditures for chewing gum, cigars
theaters and tobacco, Mr. Powe'l Inspired
an enthusiasm and a spirit of sacrifice
which lead many to subscribe.
A service was held In the afternoon
similar to the one In the morning and
another In the evening.
ev. D. W. McGregor, pastor of the
church, la well pleased with the growth of
the fund.
"I have never seen so many gentle
manly, kind-hearted men any place aa In
Omaha." he said. "To Mr. Dleta and
Mr. Kountxe we are especially thankful,
for they have taken a large burden from
us."
C. N. Diets and Herman Kountze started
the building fund with 1500 each.
rOHEGLKAM OF HI" CORO5IATI0.il
Christ' Entrance aprexae Irene In
the Gospel Story.
Rev. J. B. Hummon preached a sermon
suitable to the occasion at Kountse Me
morial church Sunday morning. He said:
"Jesus waa now to show to the world
so the world would know and see without
a doubt that He was the King. This
Palm Sunday lesson is a record of the
most noted scene In gospel story. It la
a sunburst In the life of the Bon of God,
a typical coronation, the foregleam of that
which Is to come when the Son of God
will be enthroned by the voice of the uni
verse. It was an Interesting time to the
disciples, but with all the pomp and en
thusiasm they did not understand the full
Import of this movement. They did not
seem to have guessed that It was the ap
pointed time when Jesus should make His
entrance Into the Holy City.
"But when He came Into the city the
greatest excitement prevailed and the mul
' tttude bowed Its head and received Him

I would to G"d that those perishing
souls to whom Jesus comes every nay
seeking entrsnce into their hearts would
receive Him with the enthusiasm that met
Him In Jerusalem so many yenr ago. We
are nil Interested and often enthused over
politics, but suppose we take some of this
enthusiasm and apply It to rellclon. One
df the services of religion Is to Inspire a
coumgenus and large enthusiasm. Our
Christianity should excite devotion, but
people seem very much afrnlil of exu
berunce In their religious life. Wrist the
churches need most today Is enthusiasm.
I am not advocating mere emotional ex
citement, hut the enthusiasm founded on
truth and a Arm conviction. If enthusi
asm comes from selfish sources it will
soon die nut, but If It romCs from the
grace of Ood it Is lnexhauslble and will last
to the end of the Christian Journey."

Waving palm branches and decorations of
potted palms were prominent In Omaha
churches yesterday In observsnce of Palm
Sunday. The day waa marked more In
the musical programs than In the sermon
topics, and In nearly all of the programs
'The Palms." by Faure, was sung, either
as a solo or as an sntnem. i no oiner
muslo was also In commemoration of
Christ's triumphal entry Into Jerusalem.
A pouring rain at church time kept many
from the forenoon services, but the skies
partly cleared before the close. Many of
the Catholic and Episcopal worshipers
carried palm leaves as a token of the
day.
Special Palm Sunday music was provided
by the vested choir at St. Mary's Avenue
Congregational church. The processional
hymn was "Ride On, Ride On In Majesty."
The principal anthem was "The Palms,"
arranged for a tenor solo and choir by
Mr. Kelly, the solo part being sung by
Mr. Jessen. The other music was appro
priate to the spirit of the day. The church
was decorated with potted palms grouped
around the pulpit.
Rev. Lucius O. Baird took as his topic
the words of Christ to Peter and Andrew:
"Follow me and I win make you fishers of
men. In part he said:
"Christ took Andrew and Peter Just as
they were and that Is what It means to
be a Christian. It means to take a man
Just where be stands the farmer at his
plow, the merchant at his counter, the
woman In her home. Irving Is a problem
of approximation. Here on one side Is a
man as he is; on the other Is a man as he
ought to be. Christ comes to him as he
Is. The artist declared he would rather
have It said of him that he was Improving
than anythlrur else. The call to the disciple
Is not a call to a dead level existence.
When It comes one steps out of the hum
drum existence and Into an eternal be
coming. 'Christ demands two things sincerity
and loyalty. He requires an absolutely sin
cere -way of looking at life as at Himself.
Christ hated a hypocrite. If there are
scathing words In this last week they were
directed against the barren fig tree. That
tree was a hypocrite. No tree had a right
to have flg leaves on It unless there were
figs underneath.
"The second question He asks is: 'Are
you loyal? Are you willing to follow Me
through everythlngr He demands a loy
alty that will enable a man to put aside
hia surrounding life entirely."

Not thinking what suspicions their ac
tions might arouse, three young men em
ployed at the Midland Glass and Paint
company's store on Harney street climbed
the Are escape at the rear of the building
Sunday afternoon and gained entrance to
the second floor, where they wanted to do
some work. A stranger saw them enter
and reported to the police that burglars
had entered the building. The patrol wagon
made a hurry run to the scene with Patrol
men Byrnes, wooldrldge.. Hudson and
Flynn, who surrounded the building. Hud
son scaled the Are escape, which was ac
cessible from the ground, and hurried to
the landing on the second floor, where he
was greeted by two 6f the "burglars." who
had been attracted by the commotion.
When the young men explained they
worked at the place and had climbed the
Are escape, the policemen felt like taking
them to the city Jail on general principles.

America, Makes Address.
CHRISTIANITY AND DEMOCRACY IN ORIENT
These Tro ireat I.lahta nf Adinrpil

Being Km bra red In Flowery
K Inadnm.
Dr. KiJIto Takasugl, S. T. R. Ph. D., of
Tokio, jHpan, lectured 8unday afternoon
at the First Christian churrh tabernacle.
Nineteenth and Farnnm streets, under the
auspices of the Toung Men's Christian as
sociation on the subject of "The New Ja
pan." The lecture was preceded by short
devotional services and a vocal solo, "Oh,
Kyes That Are Weary," by Miss Badllek,
and a baritone solo, "The Palms," by W.
I... Hoffman.
The tabernacle was well filled, the audi
ence being men entirely. Dr. Takasugl is
a graduate of DuPaw university, Indiana,
and a fost grmluute of Harvard. He is at
present a professor In the Imperial college
nt Sapporo, Japan, and is a leader of ad
vanced educational and religious thought
In Japan. He is a member of the Samurai
and a scion of one of the noble families
of the Island empire.
Dr. Takasugi's address began with the
first opening of the ports of Japan to
western civilization under the persuasive
Influences of Commodore Perry's Amer
ican ships In 1SJ and with the commercial
treHty between Japan and the United
States March 81, ISM, and Its remarkable
advancement since then.
Oldest Kmplre In the 'World.
"Japan has a history of 2,5") years; it
Is the oldest empire In the world," he said.
While China may claim an older form
of government under the generic name
of China, It has been a government of
frequent changes of dynasties. The pres
ent reigning dynasty of Japan has been
on tho throne of Japan for 1500 years.
Most of the Japanese emperors were kind
monarch; there is little of any tyrannic
history in Japan. Thenation was for
many centuries governed , by castes that
were granted ' special privileges. Another
caste or class was close to the throne that
stood ready at any moment to sacrifice life
for" the perpetuity of the crown. These
castes and parties were all-powerful and
It was not until the American Invasion
that Japan was awakened from Its leth
argy. There existed an educational class
also, that was zealous In Its work, and
when the Invasion of western civilisation
came the nation was ready for it. It
had a foundation for civilization. Its
Island Isolation and Its scores of navigable
streams and seas made every quarter of
the empire accessible and the spread of
modern civilization was very rapid. The
history of the last fifty years demon
strates that. It was only a few years ogo
that the battleships of Japan were made
In Kngland or America and today Japan
Is building vessels within its own ship
yards, one that Is to be of 19,000 tons
burden.
Sixteen Dally Newspapers.
"We have a magnificent postal system,
railroads, newspapers of Immense circula
tions. Including sixteen dally papers, and
the spread of knowledge through the means
of numberless schools, colleges and univer
sities is keeping stride with the commer
cial progress of the nation. Ninety-one per
cent of the children of Japan are attending
school. They are studying the English
language and all the European languages.
Our high schools are modeled much after
the German gymnasiums, and after them
come our colleges and universities,' in
which every branch of modern science and
culture is taught. The Japanese are ex
tremely anxious for the higher systems of
education. We do not adopt the system
of co-education. Men only teach In the
boys' school, but both men and women
teach In the girls' schools, of which there
are a great "many of all grades.
Democracy to the Front.
"The democratic spirit of Japan is be
coming more manifest daily and Is keeping
pace with her commerclat growth. A few
years ago our people cried out for a con
stitutional government and the emperor
granted It. The emperor Is a strong man
physically, as he Is Intellectually, and Is
'physically a much lurger man than the
average Japanese. .When he says a thing
must be done it is done. He Is a man of
advanced thought and both he and the
empress have a strong leaning toward
Christian practices and methods. They rec
ognize the potent power of Christian in
fiuences and have contributed liberally to
the Christian institutions. Freedom of
worship, press and speech is now a salient
part of the Japanese constitution. This
constitution was granted sixteen years ago,
and new reforms are being established con
stantly. The emperor, is willing to follow
the wishes of the people and Is particu
larly enthusiastic in the matter of the
higher education of the people.
"No passport is required for a person to
travel through any part of Japan. Visitors
always are welcome and the Japanese are
ever hospitable toward strangers, especially
Americans.
Russia and Japan nt War.
"In the recent war witn Russia, Japan
was ready. We fought for a principle and
for our rights and won them. Russia was
not ready. Japan believes In its destiny
as the Queen of the Eastern Seas. It has
opened the door to sixteen cities of Man
churia for nil the world. The open door
was what we were working for. Russia
gave no privileges to preach the gospel in
Manchuria, but Japan has given that priV'
liege. Its Ideal Ik the American Ideal. It
was the Christian Influence ever growing
In Japan that geva us the victory. Its
Christian teachers went Into the army and
taught the gospel of Christ there. They
taught the soldiers of Japan the beauty
of the Christian life, taught them to read
and write, gave them Bibles and testa
ments and mere ever present with them
on battlefields. In camp and on the
marches.
"The present rhlef commissary of the
Japanese army Is a Christian convert, be
coming so since the beginning of the war.
He has prohibited the Introduction of any
stronger liquor Into the army thsn sweet
cider. He favors the army canteen, but
without the element of spirituous or malt
liquors, and In this he Is sustained by
the emperor.
la Japanese Colleges.
"In the Japanese colleges there are now
over S.C00 Chinese students and Japanese
teachers are instructors In the Chinese
schools. Japan is sending Christian mis
sionaries Into China, Corea, India, and we
expect before long to send missionaries
Into Ituxela. Buddhism and Confucianism
are Incoming obsolete in Japan. The
Christian spirit is growing and I expect
to see Japan become a Christian nation
yet in my generation. Japan is not afraid
to stand up for God."
Dr. Takasugl spoke briefly of the famine
conditions now prevailing In Japan, say
ing that they were improving.
"The cold weather," he said, "and the
war had much to do with the Impoverish
ment of the farms. Our people are ex
tremely grateful for the liberal donations
from America and they will more firmly
cement the friendly relations existing be
tween the two countries. America is the
most progressive nation of the world tod.
and the world is looking to you and your
great, good Christian president. Theodore
Roosevelt, for even greater achievements
In the world's betterment and evangeliza
tion."
SOB, YE THIRSTY BOOZERS
Imported Whiskies of the High Rail
Variety Dabbed Fraada and
Mamaae-a.
That large, Important and patriotic body,
he whisky drinkers of America, will be
grateful to the Department of Agriculture
n general and to Chief Chemist' Wiley In
particular. At least, they ought to be.
Prof. Wiley has at Isst completed his In
quisition Into the Imported articles known,
respectively, at "Scotch" and "Irish"
whisky, and the whole country now knows
that they are frauds and humbugs both.
Not to put too flne a point upon It. we
may briefly say that SO per cent of the
so-called "Scotch" Is dIMIlled from the In
ferior brand of corn produced abroad, and
hnt only a small fraction namely, the
remaining tenth is really Scotch whisky.
Just why they should put in that much
we do not undertake to say, since tho
smell of rotten straw and the tsste of peat
smoke could be obtained much more
cheaply and with quite as wholesome re
sults. They do It, however, and as the
ranks of the suckers Increase In this coun
try, according to Hungry Jo, at the rate
of one every minute, the Industry Is doubt
less profitable and the demand practically
unlimited. It's English, you know, and
that's enough to float the stuff on this
side.
A recent decjsion in the North Lon-
don police court has had the effect of de
nouncing these fraudulent concoctions and
of punishing their purveyors. This may
help the cause in the United State, since
the court has ordered that the alleged
Scotch and Irish whiskies exported from
he tight little Island must hereafter be
labeled with a true statement of their In
gredients. Again, It may not help at all.
for nothing Is easier than to efface the
labels at the American port of entry and
so continue the good work of humbugging
the American sucker. The question with
us Is not so much whether a thins: Is
really English as whether we can be made
to believe It Is.
Meanwhile, as we are not profoundly
nterested In the propagation or the propa
gatorsof British Institutions In this coun
try. It occurs to us to offer a suggestion
to the level-headed majority, who, so to
speak, don't care a continental where any
given thing comes from so long as It
strikes them favorably. We suggest, there
fore, that since nine-tenths of this so
called Scotch whisky Is the distilled
product of Inferior European corn, and the
only exotic feature thereof are a bad
smell and a rancid taste, it mav be lust
well, If not better, to have our VScotch"
made at home of straight American corn
Juice and the dead-Cat effect added by the
employment of domestic material. In this
way we could monopolize so far, at least,
as the home market Is concerned -the en
tire output of "Scotch whisky." That
would be business for our manufacturers
and it wouldn't mitigate the happiness of
the Willie-boys unless some one went ami
told them.
We strongly recommend this arrange
ment. Under Its operation the two classes
of "Scotch whisky" drinkers could be grat
ified according to their taste and wisdom.
The enlightened would get a better qual
ity of. corn Juice, olored with dried ap
ples or something of that kind, while' the
Imitation English who insist . upon the
smoky effect could suit themselves with
an Infusion of almost any variety of barn
yard refuse. We believe in making every
body happy. Ve aim to please Washing
