THE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, JULY 4, 1916. LAST OF THE WARS : BETWEEN NATIONS DeLarme Predicts America Has Great Future Work in Shap ing World Affairs. KEVZR BEATEN IN WAE . "God has been very good to our nation. He hat given her great things to do. But in the future he is going to be still better to us. And he is going to give us greater work to do, So asserted Rev. A. A. De Larme, at the First Baptist church last evening, in a patriotic sermon on "The Future of the American Republic Rev. Mr. De Larme took as his text, "He loveth our nation." He demonstrated, by numeroua historic instances, that the hand of the In' finite has been in the shaping of the destinies of this republic "The United States is the one glor ious nation that has never known de teat in any war, the speaker as serted. "But a greater glory it that we have never waged a war for mili tary glory or national or personal aggrandizement When we have fought we have fought to defend the rights of free men. The Future Duty, "Washinston founded the reoublic. Lincoln freed it and McKiney made it a Champion of humanity. It re mains for us to fulfill its great des tiny, making It the champion of uni versal peace, world-wide brotherhood, national virility. "As God has used this treat coun .try wonderfully for the liberation of men and the emancipation of thought, so he i going to use it in the future tor tne emancipation ot the heathen ana the amelioration of wrong condi tions among humanity everywhere. "We can see the hand of God throughout our history. Washington on his knees in the show at Valley Forge is a well known figure of rev erence. Benjamin Franklin stood in the constitutional convention and asserted, 'I have lived eighty-one years and the .longer 1 live the more - i tee tnat Ood is shaping the del timet of men and nations and espe ciallv of this country.' Abraham Lin. coin declared himself 'driven to nrav- er to God by the numberless perplex- ' Trusted In God. , "The really big men who have - builded this nstion were men who ' believed in and trusted God. The really 'big men will continue to be such men, for God is, indeed, raising up this nation to play greater part in uie oaye inai are io ioiiow tne close of the great war than ever it has played before. "This it to be the last great war ' among civilized nations. It seems that God is showing them the awful horror, the tickening, nauseating wretchednett of war in thia one awful . cataclysm, and the nations hence' forth will never resort to killing of their citizens to settle their differ ences. ; The white-robed choir tang by re quest ' Kipling's "Recessional.'' the words and the music of DeKoven cam. bining to show the beauties of sim ple faith when compared to ephem eral military glory. Many other pastors of the city preached patriotic sermons yesterday, not only because of the nearness of the Fourth of July, but especially be cause of the request of President Wilson that the nation be remem. bered by sermon and prayer in the cnurcnea.

Discharged Soldier Is Beaten and Bobbed Fearfully beaten and in a pitiful condition, James Kelley, 34 years of age, hailing from Philadelphia, was found Sunday locked in a boxcar at Sixth and Jones streets, where on Thursday night he had been lured, atrongarmed and robbed by four men. Kelly was recently discharged from the army at Jefferson Barracks, Mo.r and was just recovering from an attack of pleurisy when he ar rived in Omaha Thursday evening, on a freight train. Shortly after his arrival he met two white men, who were later joined by two negroes. Kelly accompanied the quartet to Sixth and Jones,' where they sud denly sprang upon him, and after adminiatering a terrible beating, took S3), hit hat. coat and shoes,- threw him Into a boxcar and fastened the door. It was here he was found more dead than alive, by a - car checker, Sunday morning. After re ceiving - medical treatment at the hand of Or. 'Barney Kulakofsky, Kelly was removed to St. Joseph's hospital, where his condition is re ported to be decidedly serious. - London. July t.

' MACKAY REVIEWS YEARSOF SERVICE Hector of All Saints' Tells of His Work of Quarter of a Century. , f YEARS SEEM LIKE MONTHS A host of friends greeted Rev. T. J. Mackay Sunday morning at All Saints' church, when he preached his twenty-fifth anniversary sermon. In opening his sermon, which par took more of the nature of an infor mat talk to his friends and a rev of his ministry, he said: Just twenty-five years ago preached my first sermon in this city as rector of All Saints' church. Stand' ing here and looking back over the last quarter of a century how many recollections throng the mind. The twenty-five years have passed rapidly they seem" like a dream. What a long time to look forward to I But today those years that are past seem more like months than years. Devotion of Hit People. In speaking of the devotion the congregation has shown him he said "I have not always merited that de votion, tor like a true episcopalian, I have done the things I ought not to have done, and left undone the things I ought to have done.' I have said things I should not have said in the heat of a discourse, and have run counter to your sent'ments and prejudices and you have borne pa tiently with me. I have at times shocked the orthodox, and made the fearful ones tremble for the safety of the Ark of the Covenant. I have been looked upon by not a few as a heretic and lawbreaker in my use of the Prayer Book services. I have caused some of my dearest friends to wish that '1 would not talk so freely on certain subjects.' Thev loved me so that they could not bear to hear me criticized by our religious friends in other churches, but I was not born a clam, and could no more retrain from telling what I believed to be the truth than a bird could keep irom uying. I have heard clergymen tav. '1 would not dare to preach as you do,' dui i nave never Hesitated to give expression to the truth that is in me, no matter how unpopular it might be in some Quarters. I have manv faults. and not a few week points, but I have never worn a disguise or mask, and all my faults are known to you all - Quotes Opening Sermon. He later quoted from hit openine termon twenty-five yeart ago: "I en ter thit work as vour rector with fair ana trembling, not knowing what the result may be, continent only of this one thing, that if this work be of bod it must succeed. If God be with us none can be again us. I want the hearty individual co-ooeration of ev ery member of my congregation and of the citizens of this city who can find their religious wants met here. I throw myself upori your well known hospitality and public spirit and I trust my future in your hands." suia men sneaking ot tne Interven ing years: "How well my anticipa tions were realized and how loyally my people responded let the past ears oe a witness, in ever nave 1 CAM ftf e,eh k.ncA,,. I f try or a more responsive, loving con gregation. It has been a constant de- ght to serve vou. and never have I regretted my decision to make my home among you." . And in conclusion: Then tw,nt. five years have been very happy years and I feel today as if I were the rich est man in umaha rich in love and affection, and rich and content be yond -measure that I have been able to serve humanity inside and outaide my paris. Oh I dear friends, it is this service to humanity that counts in the long run." . Booklet Issued .
