Dr. Craig, n the course of a long life, has dedicated mom Presbyterian churches. It Is said, than any other minister now living. He took his text from II Chronicles, II: 5, "And the house which I build fi great: for great la our Ood above nil OodH." "There have been times frequently among the different peoples since the beginning of the Christian era when men have turned their faces awny from Ood and have kepi them toward the earth." said Dr. Craig. "And In such a time there has always hen someone called to point the way Oodward. This divine designation has come not to thla people who have erected this beautiful place in which to worship Ood. "A feeling, of reverence comes over a man when he sees a church edifice. There Is something about It that ' embodies that grand mysterious love of Ood which caused Him to send His Son Into the world for the redemption of sinners. The Influence of thla building will be for good In this neigh borhood and in this city." Statement of Finances. Dr. H. M. MeClanahan, chairman of the building comrjttee, read a report showing the cost of s building to be more than $20,000. At the morning service yesterday 13.600 was raised In pledges among the mem bers. At the afternoon service more than $1.8oo additional was raised to apply toward wiping out the indebtedness. Of the latter aum $1,000 was given by one person who refused to have even the amount 'stated publicly. After the dedicatory sermon the keys to the building were formally turned over by Dr. MeClanahan to Dr. A. O. Peterson, representing the trustees. In so doing "Dr. MeClanahan rnnde special mention of the unerasing labors of William Henry Brown In personally keeping in touch with the work of construction. The new church is built In the Gothic style of architecture of vitrified brick trimmed with stone. It seats 400 people 1:1 the main auditorium. The Interior Is hand somely frescoed and finished In dark oak. It has fine Sunday school rooms below. The Lowe Avenue Presbyterian congre gation has made great progress In the last six years under the pastorate of Dr. Clarke, advancing from a small congregation with a poor building to a strong and active church with one of the finest edifices on the west side. WOJDEJtFlL WORKS OF FAITH Possibilities of Christian Limited Only hy Ills Trnst In God. Rev. Dr. Leonard Oroh spoke yesterday morning' at St. Mark's Lutheran church on "Faith," and the wonderful things that are wrought by the strong and abiding trust of the true Christian. "The possibilities of the Christian are lim ited only by the faith which he has." said Dr. Qroh. "This Is the great keynote which runs throughout the scriptures, the Old and the New Testaments. Great things were wrought by the children of Israel by reason of their faith In the olden times. The account of the works of Jesus tn the New Testament are full of In stance of the workings of this marvelous power. Ills teachings to His disciples are a perect mine of Information on the won ders of that quality upon which successful Christian activities must be baaed. And the teachings thus Instilled try the Master are reflected In the preaching of the dis ciples and In their epistles and writings after Die tlUh ot CJ.rist and Ilia acfci sion Into heaven. "Moody at one time said to another Christian. "God Is looking; for a man to whom He can delegate more power on earth. The man to whom Moody spoke did not understand htm at first. But the great preacher referred to the amount of faith such a man would have to have and which he realised must be more than he possessed." Dr. Groh also referred to the workings of faith right In the St. Mark's congregation, which had existed for twenty years with only a small frame bouse of worship. A little over a year ago It was decided to build a new church and, though there was but little money In sight, the members went ahead on the strength of faith and now have a building worth $14,0n0 and with almost no debt, a practical example of the results of faith. GREAT ACT BY HIMBLE MBA Lesson of Christ's Simple exhibition of Divine Power Bronaht Ont. Rev. A, A. Pfanatlehl of Highland Park. 111., preached at Westminster Presbyterian church Sunday morning from the text John, xlU.Z-5. The theme was the lesson given by Jesus In washing the feet of His disciple, and thus teaching them the lesson of hu mility. "There Is a strangeness lr this lowly act of Jesus in connection with the knowledge that He possessed of His power and ex altation over all things," said Dr. Pfan stielil, "yet It was but the lesson taught by Jesus that It Is not wholly essential to do great things in a great way, but to do great things In an humble way. It l not In the st"rm and earthquake that God glveo us the real manifestation of His power, but it is the still, small waters and small and humble things. Jesus exalted the lowly. Mo che the foolish and unlearned of the world (hat Ho might shamo the wise, and the weak things that He might shame the strong. "Power of itself does not mnke ono great. Jesus, knowing all things were put Into His hands by the power of God, took a towel arid wiped His disciples' feet Instead of grasping a scepter as a manifestation of His power. Anybody can handle a sword or a scepter or occupy a world throne, but not everyone can har.dle the towel, because they are not strong enough. Pirwer Is the combination of preat and little things. The liibio standarJ of power was the ability to get along without things and exercise strength from within throuph the power and faith In God. In the soul there is no echo but of deeds that are God'e deeds. It Is not In doing great, but In doing good things that our best achievements are wrought. There Is no greater power than the power of humble service. The lesson of Jesus' humility is one of the mot beautiful and Impressive of all His ministry. Braggadocio Is the proof of wenknese. There is no strength that is lasting but that which comes from (I'd. He who would lad Irv power must lead In service. What are we In this world for? Surely not to sway the social, financial, political or commercial scepter nor to nurse our eoclal respectabil ity. But we are here to do. To plant a flower wherever a flower 'wruld grow. The Lord help us to make some one ha.py to day, should be our first morning prayer. Let us do this thing In memory of the lov ing, humble, serving Jesus." Prior to the sermon a letter 'was read from Rev. W. S. Fulton of Print Breeze, Pa., to the church board, In which he states that he Is very strongly disposed to accept the call to the pastorate of Westminster church so cordially tendered him. However, before deciding to do so he would first pre fer to have his wife visit Omaha. He and Mrs. Fulton will arrive lrt Omaha sometime during August, following a visit they are desirous of making to friends In New Tork and Kansas. Dr. Fulton's letter leaves lit tle doubt that he will accept the call. He expressed himself as much In love with the west, and Omaha In particular, and tn con clusion he writes: "I hope soon that we shall make your people our people."

Good VandevlUe Bill at the Orphean), Panllne Courtney at the Krag and Rath Grey at the Lyric. Miss Roeelle Knott and company In "Allce-Blt-by-the-FIre," a comedy In three acts, by J. M. Barrle; at the Boyd theater. The cast: Colonel Grey, recently of the East India army service Mr. Brlc Blind Amy Grey, a Arm believer In what goes on at the theater Miss Viola Knott Cosmo Grey, too big to be kissed, even by his father Mr. Ernest Truet Stephen Rollo. the man in the case, an Innocent but troubled victim Mr. Robinson Newbold Leonora Dunbar, the aider and abettor of Amy's romantic notions Miss Grace Gibbons Nurse, with a proprietary affection for her charges Miss Codrlngton Webber Richardson, who aspires to be a "loidy" Miss Adelaide Evann Fanny, a maid Miss Molly Dlskln Mis. Grey, who Is under her daughter's chaperonage Miss Roselle Knott This unique comedy by J. M. Barrle with Miss Knott In the role of Alice Grey at tracted a small audience at the Boyd last night. Those who did witness It were generous with their applause and enjoyed to the fullest the originality of Barrle's creation. "AIlce-Slt-by-the-Flre" Is Eng lish to the core and Is constructed upon conditions that could only exist In sur roundings typically English. It Is full of Intensely comical, not to say ridiculous, situations very cleverly contrived. Miss Knott In the title role gave a fairly satis factory Interpretation of Alice Grey and her support was generally fair. The story of the play Is based upon the return of Colonel Grey and his wife, Alice, to their family In England after a long absence tn India, where Alice has been the belle of the post at which her husband was stationed. She Is all but a stranger to her three children, Cosmo, of boarding school age; Amy, Just entering the matinee-hero-worshiping ago, and the baby, 2 years old. Amy's Ideas of life are drawn from her matinee experiences, and when she dis covers whit she supposes Is a discreditable affair between her mother and Stephen Rollo, un old friend of the family, she goes to his room, matinee style, to secure the tell-tale letters she feels sure must have passed between her mother and Rollo. 8he Is discovered there under the suspicious circumstances by her father and mother I and In attempting to shield her mother from exposure of the fancied love affair complicates things generally and brings I about all sorts of ridiculous situations. Her parents learn the true st.ite of affairs, after I suspecting their daughter and Rollo, and j to the end keep up the farce and the cur I tain drops on Amy triumphant In the belief ; she has done a noble work In preventing the disrupting of the family. Alice, how ever, reullzes the responsibilities of mother hood and resolves thenceforth to renounce gaiety and be "Alioe-Slt-by-the-Flre." Tho really serious situations In the play are so overshadowed by the ridiculousness of ' my's Illusions and her romantic meth ods of attempting to untangle thiniyt the way they are untangled on the stage that It Is hard for the audience to get into full sympathy with the scenes In which Alice's love for her children and her almost traglo efforts to win their confidence predominate. Otherwise the play Is an entertaining one. It will be given again this evening. "Richard Curvel" at (be nnrwood. Another play of ye ancient times, some thing of the kind In which the company scored such a success last week, la the offering of tho Woodward Stock company at. the Burwood theater for this week. "Richard Carvel," In four acts, has some very stirring scenes, an Intense love course, as was characteristic of ' Revolutionary days, and the way the members of the company take hold to portray exact con ditions and passions does them a great deal of credit. The ring of swords as they clash In due), the fervent appeal of the lover to his lady, the courtly manners and grand ways take the audience back over all the years to strange scenes and cus toms In so clever a mannner that the sympathetic Interest Is at every moment plainly evident. The pretty dames were Miss Pettes as Dorothy Manners, over whom blood flows and men fight: Miss Maycllff as Betty Tay lor, and Miss Martin as Patty Swain. The beauty of the women was the boast of the age and has been since, and these re flected such an impression In their dainty colonial costumes. Richard Carvel Is played by Albert Mor rison In a way that thoroughly shows the spirit of those fiery youths In their hates and loves, and his boon companion In time of distress, Captain John Paul Jones, falls to John Davtes. The famous old sea fighter is "there" with the fire and noise which made It possible for him to cow his enemies on water. Others who should be equally praised for their work are David M. Hartford as Grafton Carvel and the duke of Chartersea: John I Todd as Horace Walpole and Mr. Allen; Lloyd Thompson as Goble the Inn keeper, and much talent was shown by every other member of the cast. The theater was filled for the opening performance and a notable matter In con nection with the production was that In spite of a positive announcement In a Sunday paper that Mr. Todd and Mr. Phlnney had severed their connection with the Woodward Btock company, these two gentlemen were In the oast as usual. Manager Burgess stated If they have any Intention of leaving they have not thus far made It known. Vaadevllle at the Orphenm. American people are quick to appreciate real excellence In nny line of human activity. If, as charged by several visitors who have sailed across the ocean blue, taken a ride around Gotham In the "rubber-neck," Americans are over-Indulgent, they cannot be charged with lacking spontaneity In recognising those who can do any particular thing better than any body else. This foreword has particular reference to the reception given yesterday afternoon and evening In the Orpheum to The Four Fords and J. J. Morton, the former being the best dancers In their class that ihave been seen here since they last appeared, and Mr. Morton being a premier as a monologue artist. These two acts head this week's Orpheum bill, which on the whole Is one of general merit. Mr. Morton tells stories In a simple man ner without having to reaort to anything that savors of the risque. He appears without makeup and has a style distinctly his own. He Is Irresistibly funny. At each performance yesterday he wwa recalled i several times. The Fords, brothers and sisters, are unusually nimble and graceful on their feet. They Introduce several novelties In their executions. Frank Mostyn Kelly and E. H. Calvert offer a neat little sketch under the title of "Tom and Jerry." The merit of this sketch lies In the witty dialogue and finished acting. The theme is a simple one. that of a man relinquishing claims on his sweet heart for his pal. who loves the same girl. Robert Nome whistles entertainingly and plays a saaaphona with skill.

'Twould be folly to skimp there. Most differences in taste are due to the skill, or the lack of skill, in the brewing. And to the yeast. But quality refers, above all, to the purity. Pure beer has no germs in it, and it does not cause biliousness. It is not only good, but good for you. Purity is rare because it is costly, lack is not easily noticed.

On Sunday after noun and evening Miss Pauline CVmrtney 'appeared for the first time at the Krug theater In the melting and bewitching character of Virginia Gra ham In C. H. Banther's four-act drama, "The Pride of , Virginia." Although Pau line has Improved somewhat since her last summer's engagement at the Bijou In this city, she can not yet be spoken of as a phenomenon of dramatic excellence. But that la not saying she may not aome day become one If she lives long enrugh, for nature has been generous In giving her a strong healthy physique combined with a rugged constitution. She Is nature Itself, and some day art may be added. The drama deals In scenes of the civil war and the scenes are In old Virginia. The story Is of a young Virginian whose sympathies are with the north. He loves the girl, Virginia, who Is none other than Pauline, and the day comes when she puts it up to him to choose between her and the north. He chooses the north. She feels much cut up over his de cision and proves herself a veritable prin cess of tears, but happily recovers from the melting mood in time to appear between acts and slrur "I Want Somebody to Love Me." during which the man who operates the searchlight In the gallery has difficulty In keeping the red llrht focused on her. There are no artificialities about her sing In. Nature gave her a fair voice and nature predominates here also. But to re turn to the drama. Her lover goes to fight for hie country and the rebel spy. Lmte Ransom, whose name Is Jack Dunre-nd who Uvea tn Council Bluffs, tries to get her lover killed as a federal spy, and doubtless would hsve succeeded had not Virginia got hold of "those papers" and come to the rescue. Considering that the company is Just starting out (from Council Bluffs) they did well. The house waa well filled. The present engagement will continue tonight, Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Rnth Grey - at the I.yrle. Ruth Grey, the mystic, was at the Iyrlc last ndgM. The house waa about half filled. Blindfolded she answered questions which had been written on sJIps of paper by dif ferent ones In the audience, In each Instance telling the name of the one who had writ ten the question. Her work waa mystify ing to tlvree present. Her engagement will continue throughout the week. Four Chicago Trains Daily Tia D Moines, New ton, Grinnell, Iowa City and Davenport.
