END OF LONG WAR One ef Two linadred and Forty-Three Tears' Dsratloa Brought to a Close. A little cable dispatch of not more than fifty words from The Hague, In Holland, tells In matter-of-fact fashion of the end ing of a war which has lasted 243 years, probably the longest In the history of the world waged ceaselessly, decade after dec ade, by the stouthearted, dogged Dutch against the savage Macassars for the pos session of the diamond-dusted, gold-crusted Island of Celebes In the Bast Indies. This war was begun when New York had been settled by these same Dutchmen only thirty years before. Peter Btuyvesant was then stumping about Its half dosen streets edging the bay on his wooden leg. lording It over the handful of people who, before the war was ended, were to become the 4.000.000 of the great metropolis of the west. The Pilgrims had been In Massachusetts only forty years. A locomotive was as un known as a flying machine or an automo bile, electricity was not dreamed of and steam was not driving a single wheel any where. The world has awakened from a great sleep and girded Itself with the my riad modern devices while the Dutch have been subjugating these far eastern Macas sars. Charles II, the profligate, was rlotlnt? on the throne of England In the beginning of the restoration; Napoleon, who was to change the map of Europe as only Julius Caesar had before him, was not to be born on the little Isle of Corsica for another hundred years; England was only beginning to realize trit Shakespenre had Just com pleted the greatest literary work In the language; Rembrandt, Murlllo and Velas quez were painting their masterpieces In different parts of Europe, and Queen Vic toria, still to be born, might have been merely a little, Insignificant German prin cess, instead of "queen of Great Britain and reland, by the grace of God, defender of the faith and empress of India," If William Henry, the stadtholder of Holland, who be gan the war against the Macassars, had not become William III of England. The last thousand of the dusky Malay tribe, driven back foot by foot from the southern coast of the Island, made their final stand In a wild fastness on the top most crag of the crater of one of Celebes' extinct volcanoes. With Its natural bat- ements of solid rock and up on "the roof of the world," It was more like an eagle's eyrie than a fortress. But the Dutch soldiers, trained to meet their enemies by the lessons of the almost ntermlnable war, pushed their way up the mountain side, through the tangled tropical forest and ringed themselves around the crater. At last the natives surrendered, ending a war of more than 'two centuries. New York American. PLANS FOR KETTLE MEETING Irlah-Amerlcana Farther Arrange- meats for Reception of the Home Rale Speaker.

"Feace on Earth, Good Will to Man." was sung at the Omaha churches 8unlay, and the spirit of Christmastlde breathed over the whole olty. The preachers made their sermons com memorative of the advent of the Christ child to Bethlehem, and appropriate musical programs were cnerea ai most 01 m churches. In some cases the children of the Sunday schools and the members of the young people's societies gave programs of music, reciU.Uons and drills. The churches were beautifully decorated with holly and evergreen. A cantata entitled "The First Christmas" was given In the evening by the choir of Trinity Methodist church.

The Trouble at Jerusalem" was the toplo of the Christmas sermon by Rev. Lucius O. Rttlrd at St. Mary's Avenue Congrega tional church yesterday morning." The service In commemoration of the season was enriched by special muslo by the vested choir. "The trouble at Jerusalem grew out of a compromlHlng life," said Rev. Mr. Balrd. "Herod was an expert at carrying water on both shoulders. He could be magnanimous with his enemies and absolutely t unscrupu lous with his friends. He coulilrrjcelve tho wise men cordially and at lfsame time be plotting the death of the liinocnt babes. Wherever this compromising 'spirit Is found it will be troubled with the news of tho birth of the Child King at Bethlehem. At Jerusalem compromise was king. At Bethlehem a little later we find Christ was In control. "Herod was not the brute at the begin ning of his reign that he was at Its close, and this is the history of a compromise life. The problems of the shepherd, of the disciples and the early Christians were not the problems of today. But the problem of Jesus Christ Is as vital today as It ever was. Today we have the problem of Jerusalem over again. The danger of our social, religious and political life today is compromise. It Is easy for us to go with Jerusalem. The boy is in danger of staying in Jerusalem with Herod, when he begins to compromise. "How different we find it at Bethlehem. It 1b rugged. It Is simple. It is plain; but the air Is good and pure. There was the answer to Jerusalem. There was the place of peace. There was the power of God. Today we need to get away from our Jerusalem long enough to learn the mes sage of Bethlehem. People doJnot cut their coats according to their cloth, but too often according to their neighbor's cloth. But the people who have lived the Bethle hem life have blessed the world more than the men who have lived the Jerusalem life. One thing more Is necessary in our lives than living the simple life. It Is the sur rendered life. The men who will surrender their lives to Christ will lead the blessed life of Bethlehem." DRONES ARE ALIF.X TO SOCIETY Only Workers Hold Any Place In the Great Body Politic. "Christian Sociology" was the subject of the discourse of Canon R. B. IL Bell at the Church of the Good Shepherd, Twen tieth and Ohio streets, Sunday morning. "Social obligations as veil as society In general are very import. it things In the world's economics," said Canon Bell. "Every social body Is related to some other body. We are workers In the great Boclal organization of the world and dif fer only in the way we work.

"Have you ever thought of the great throng of sick, maimed and crippled of this world, whose number Is o great that their tread would shake North America? Christ told us to heal the sick. Then there are the morally sick. We have on our hands a great body of these tht must be taken care of. In the old days the pun ishment for the morally sick was swift, relentleBS and sure. In this modern day we look upon these unfortunates as victims of disease rather than purposely criminal and find that It Is better to forgive than punish and to seek to make better men, women and children of them. No man can do a single thing without affecting someone else, be It good or evil. "You cannot suffer alone, no more than rejoice alone. A man who cannot help or sympathize with the downtrodden Is not a member of the body politic, but Is a drone and an alien to society. Take your fellow man by the hand and lift him up.

"Behold, I bring you tidings of great Joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you Is born this" day In the city of David a Saviour, which Is Christ, the Lord." These words, from the second chapter of St. Luke, formed the text of Rev. M. L. Mellck's sermon at Grace Lutheran church Sunday morning. "The message delivered In the text was spoken by one angel," said Rev. Mr. Mellck. "But that angel was accompanied by a great host, for the tidings were too great to be borne by one only. That host of angels is still here. It was an Immortal throng, which still is ministering unto men In every walk of life, in every part of the world. "The glad tidings of Christmas are uni versal in their scope. The birthday of the Saviour of mankind Is observed among the lowest savages and In the most refined homes, among the poorest and among the richest of the earth, upon ships far at sea and about the firesides safe on land. Every where there is the same Joy over the redemption that has come to man. Re demption is a gift, free, great, inexhausti ble and poured out by the gracious Father with unequaled bounty. It is free alike to king and peasant, wise and unlettered, great and small. "The anniversary which Is about to be celebrated Is that of the greatest event the world has ever known, and yet the world comprehended It not. There was no rooin at the country inn for the Infant Jesus to be laid, but thousands of angels sang hoiannas In the sky at His birth and wise men came from afar to do homage at the manger where He lay, while a star moved through the heavens as a celestial guide to those seeking the way. "The same was true throughout the Mas ter's life and is true today. Men despised Him, but angtls1 were His companions. His own city rejected Him and refused to mourn His death, but the sun hid Its face and the earth was clothed in darkness when He died." ' KOIXTZE CHlRril MISIC PROGRAM Proves Such Success It Will Be Repeated Kcxt Sunday. The Christmas musical program at the Kountze Memorial church Sunday proved so successful that It has been decided to repeat It next Sunday evening. The church was crowded at both services. Miss Swanson's solo and obllato on the harp, the vocal solos of Master Earl Prahl, Miss Livingstone, Miss Uddell, Mr. Navln and Mr. HeldlofT, the duet by Miss Weber and Mr. Heldloff, the orchestral work of Messrs. Cuscaden, Patton and Schaeffer and Misses Weber and Swanson, with the grand anthems of the choir, were all of a high order. Rev. John E. Hummon preached in the morning on "The Angels' Song." TURKEY NOTE PAID WELL Girl's Thanksslvlnar Letter Written Fourteen Tears Ago Brlnica a I.eaacy. Because she put a Thanksgiving letter In a turkey that was going to market four teen years ago, Mrs. William J. Rodden of Lowell, Mass., who was then Miss Margaret McCord of Fort Cavlngton, N. Y., is the ; recipient of $5,000 by the will of the man who bought the turkey In 1893 and who, by means of the epistle, made the acquaintance of the dainty country maiden. Romantic, indeed, is the story, which has Its present sequel almost fourteen years to a day. Miss McCord, then 15 years of age- and HvlnK at Fort Cavlngton with her pa.'ent., wa. at a neighbor . one day.

He asked Mra Smith to , write a letter from him to the address, I which was given. A correspondence en- I sued, and afterward Mlxs McCord vlalted the Smiths many times. They were deeply ln love with the charming young girl. . Four years ago Mra. Smith was taken serl- ously 111, and she sent for Margaret to come to her. Miss McCord was then study ing to be a trained nurse at the Lowell general hospital. She went to the home of sickness, and was with the woman up to the time of her death. j Mr. Smith afterward kept up his corre- 1 spondence with the girl, who had become Mrs. William J.

A conference to consider the whole matter was held In London last autumn, resulting In the or ganization of the association for the pro motion of moral training in the public schools. The American branch has Just com pleted Its organization by the election of the following executive committee: Nicholas Murray Butler, Columbia uni versity; Edwin A. Alderman.

Clifford Barnes of Chicago has been chosen to act as secretary and executive officer and James Speyer of New York, treasurer. Tho English committee Includes Sir Oli ver Odge, the lord bishop of Rlpon; Sir Edward Frye, Prof. ' Michael E. Sadler, the bishops of Hereford and Sopney and H. J. B. Paton, while the advisory coun cil Includes some of the most notable peers, members of the House of Commons and heads or representatives of all the great colleges and schools In tho United King dom. In France the work Is headed by M. Llard, vice rector of the University of Paris and the leader of the educational system of that country, and by M. Lang lols, director of the Musee Pedagogic. Ger many, Switzerland and Italy are being or ganized to take part in the movement. This year the International association Is to make a systematic effort to collect Information as to the best work being done in moral training In the schools of Great Britain, Germany, Switzerland, ItsUy, America and Japan, and for this purpose will send out several expert commissioners. These reports will be published In the autumn of 1907. An International congress Is to be held under the auspices of the association, either in New York or Lon don. -"It Talks!
