to come along that he was all
right, but told him the plain un-
vanished truth, and the fellow
leaves sorrowfully and probably
disguised. Second, the great
Nicodemus, the Supreme Court
Judge and a man Of great wealth,
came from a C ,nference. Christ
treats him as an ordinary man.
Tells him that his high position
and wealth do not weigh q feath-
er before God, that he il nothing
and must be born again, and so
he loses Nicodemus. Third,
When the rich and the poor had
contributed to the cause Of God,
he gives the highest mead OF
praise to the poor widow with
her mite and, instead of fiatter-
ing the rich and pow srful fell
low to get their influence. What
a mistake, how wanting in judy
ment and discf imination!
Fourth, There were the Phara-
sees, important and influential

Church and great christians. OF
course lie must get their influ-
ence. Bot no, he shows want Of
tact again. He .natches The veil
of Hypocrisy from over them
and lays their hollow nOckery
and carnal souls bare 70 the gaze
OF the world. He calls them
whitened sepuichres-white
without but within full of dead
mems bones. He call them d
generation of hypocrites and
vipers. And so he loses them
also and in addition receives
their hatred. '+a.a.-rs ~
And thus in following the SIM
pie role of truth and right he
says and does gust what those
who hear aud see him would not
do. Is it strange thay are as

The Doctor, in conclusion, said
that he had often wondered If
Christ were back on earth to-day
il We would misunderstood Him
now as he was misunderstood
then. He believed that we would
because the world was not hon
est. We are not honest with
ourselves. We are not honest
with each other. We don't say
what we mean. We don't mean
what we say. and we don't live
up to our professions. The world
is better now than it was then
but it is the same old heart-the
same old human nature that
misunderstood Him then. II
He were preaching here to-day
He would hit right at the root of
double dealings, insinc ;rity and
policy, and He would cut us
down at the first lick. One great
trouble with us is that nine out
of ten Of us are politicians. Not
that many probably who want
to 20. to the Legislature, or be
clerk Of the conrt or road over
seer, but politicians because we
want something else. You want
trade, You want clients, you want
patients, you want influence, OF
you have got an old worn on
reputation to keep up. So W.
don't hunt for the truth ani

we hunt how the majority stand

need are honest men and brave
men. We need them worse thar
We do christian men, such as w
have. We need men who hav,
the courage to take the homes

gogues and policy hypocrites
May God deliver us from mora

Ex-Governor Crawford's Death.

Ex-Governor George A. Crawford whose
death was announced in yesterdays STAR was
well known in this city, where he had resided for
some years after leaving Kansas. He was born
in Pennsylvania July p, 1927. After GRADUATE
ing at jefferson College in ls47 he taught school
at Salem, Va. In ls4s he returned to Pennsyl-
vania and commenced the study of law. In
1880 he became editor and proprietor Of the
Clinton DeDsOcraf, at Lock Haven. Pa. He be-
came engaged in politics and in 1853 accepted "a
clerkship offered by Postmaster General James
Campbell. He went to Kansas in 1857, and with
DR.. Norman Eddy laid out Fort Scott. At the
breaking ont Ut the war Mr. Crawford assisted
In the organization of the second Kansas reRi-
ment. He organized the militia of the state
FOR the defense when invasion was threatened
and saved southern Kansas for time He en-
joyed the distinction of having been elected
governor Of Kansas by clear majority in 1861,
bnt was deprived of the office and honors be-
cause OF the refusal Of the state board to cam
Nass the vote. In 1867 he founded the CITY of
Usage Mission and controlled its affairs for
years. President Grant appointed him a COM
missioner to the centennial, and he acted as
commissioner until its close. He was one of

They Are to he Prosecuted-B. Shepherd
White Wanted.
Recently the matter of prosecuting the sure
ties upon bail bonds taken in the Criminal
Court has been placed by District Attorney
Hoge in the hands Of Mr.. A. A. Birney, and he
has entered upon an examination of the records
with the view Of wedding out such are still
standing on the records. This business has
been heretofore in the hands of a colored at
torney, but he, shortly after taking up the
business, having secured employment at the
Capitol. but little if anything was done in re-
gard to the subject, consequently Mr.. Birney
commences from way back" about 1881. As
may be supposed, this will prove quite work
and will give the attorney employment for
some months. Already Mr.. Birney has the cases
listed and is now engaged in the
examination Of the records as to the forfeit
ures Of recognizance, whether they still remain
or have they been voided by the action of the
President. From the date of forfeiture the
judgment holds as against the property Of the
surety and the real estate title companies keep
record of them, so it will be seen ii is not only
a matter Of importance to the government that
outstanding bonds be collected Or otherwise
disposed of, but to those who are interested in
real estate transactions.
Recently Mr.. David Michigan, who is the
Sl.VOo surety VI u. Snepneru Wnlte, charged
with ENLIGHTENMENT, has asked the government
to assist him in capturing White, but District
Attorney Hoge informed him that White, al
far as the court is concerned. is in his Nelli-
gan's) custody, and he must produce him OF
bear the consequence. White has been re-
ported since he left here to have become a COW.
boy in the west. but is now said to be engaged
i'll Chicago. When White was released on bail
it intimated that that was the last Of him
and that some arrangement had been made
with Mr.. Michigan, but the anxiety the latter
shows for Whites capture is evidence of b.
good faith.
