of human nature, Mr.. McCaslin
made the inquiry whether there is a
DarDarOuS element in many modern
worldly pleasures Do they appeal to
he Daser or 10 Wer tendencies Of human
nature? The answer was affirmative.
This question is not only ethical, but
chronological. Social evolutionists insist
upon steps in human society. The
hlghergrows out of the lower.
The main pleasures of barbarism are
war. dancing and gambling. In civili-
cation they are cruelty, passion and
cnance. Prize fights exist as a puny
mlmicry OF valor. They are condemned
by the better class of society every
where, as disgraceful, and outlawed in
nearly every state. Still this form of
| pleasure commands wide attention,
| and popular interest is shown IN the
Dloody Drutalities of the twenty-tour-
FOOT ring. 1t is a craving that fills the
| newspapers with all the disgusting de-
! tails OF bruisers and blood. Passion in
pleasure means lust of the flesh. 1t was
SO III old times; it is so now. Fleshly
anlmalism is the satanic charm of the
round dance of modern society," Some
freaks OF fashion remind us of what
Moses found when he came down from
the mountain.
Every billboard is all insult to woman
mood and standing menace to public
purity, and the plays are worse than the
Dllls. Admitting possible exceptions
which only prove the rule. the modern
stage is a vast system of pandering to
human passion for gain at the box
office.
The nude in art has the same dirty,
degrading human origin. Ali the fine
talk about tone. color and ideals; evil to
him who evil thinks, ETC.. the human
form divine. is all knocked into nom
sense by the facts of the past. The
mural pictures of Pompeii are better
buried forever in ashes and pumice
stone. Looking at the blotched faces
that gathered round pictures which
nave dlsgraced galleries in this city, it
ought to condemn any picture when
social leperS are its most ardent adj
mlrers. Vultures know what they want
when they see it.
Gambling has been adopted into mod
ern society from barbarism with little
change. Gambling is simon pure saw
agery. A goddess. remorseless, cruel
way of getting gain and pleasure. 1t is
heather through and through. 1t is as
unfeeling as fate, as tickle as chance.
But modern society not only approves
OF the principle, but even tries to eS-
tablsh card playing as respectable
amusement.
Cruelty, sensuality and chance are
condemned by the ethics of Calvary.
CHRISTIANS are only safe when they eX-
clude from their pleasure all that par
takes of these. Flavor every pleasure
with Kindness. honesty and purity, and
all amusementS will be Christian.

FIFTY-THREE YEARS.
More Than Half Century OF
Welded Life.

Mr.. and Mrs. Bloomer celebrated the
ffty-third anniversary of their marriage
In Council Bluffs, To-, last week. Few
women have garments named for them.
1t is greater to have garment named
for you, If you stop to consider, than it
to have ship or city for a name
sake. 1t was all very funny when Mrs.
Bloomer came to the front many years
ago, when some of us we're young and
charming, and proposed that some OF
US should adopt her little gownlng
scheme. l remember some feminine
enthusiasts of the croquet field who
donncd the bloomers long time ago,
and were regarded as thorough
ly advanced women. Well,
Mrs. BlOomer was crank.
A crank is q man who Is fifty years
ahead of time. The time has rolled
along, and If Mrs. Bloomer will attend
the woman's council next week in Chi.
cago she will behold her "bloomers"
held up by the modern dress reformer
and recommended as convenient dress
for women. They won't be called
boomers, though; they will be known
as the Syrian trousers. 1t seems to me
that well-intentioned women waste
great deal OF time. There is such lot
of work to be done in the world, you
know, that what we wo men wear, pro-
vided we make it rule to always look
as we'll as we can, is of very little i'm
portance in the great problem OF life.

The Italian to Be the Next to Be
Electrocuted.

ElectrOcuted.
DANNEMoRA, N. Y, June 4.-Scipione
Martella, who has been confined in
Clinton prison since Nov. %, 1892, await
ing the execution of his death sentence
for the brutal murder of fellow cOun-
tryman, will be executed about Tuesday
noon. The murderer of Giovanni Parello
will then have been legally disposed Of.
ParellO's murder, which occurred on the
streets in Saratoga May 5, 1892, was the
result Of jealousy in connection with
Martella's mistress. and was a horrify-
ing act, in which Parello's throat
was cut. MartelIa has become
nervous as the time for his death
approaches, but otherwise he is
in good health. Up to week ago last
Friday he had been feigning insanity,
but he stopped that after an examina-
ton. Not friend has visited Martella
since he came here, and he has been
alone in his confinement. A test of the
death dealing apparatus has been made,
and everything was found to work
satisfactorily. This will be the third
execution to take place at Clinton
prison under the new law and the fif-
teenth since the law went into effect.
The same CHAIR In which Wood and
10th died will be used on Tuesday.

PETERS DENIAL
Used as Text for an Instructive
Sermon.

Used as Text for an Instructive
Sermon.
Rev. w. j. Lhamon preached on the
Apostle Peters denial. when thou
|, art converted strengthen thy BRETHREN"
said Jesus to his still unconverted
disciple. Peter was a genuine Jew.
He hated Rome and looked for a man
that should be greater Caesar. Jesus
disappointed him and crushed his hopes.
The chasm was yet too broad
between Christ's philanthropy and
Peters patriotism; between the Mas
ter'S forgiveness and the apostles ven
geance; between the heavenliness of
the former and the worldliness of the
latter. Denial was inevitable. Christ's
lamb-llke submission to arrest was like
treason in the eyes of his disciples.
They truly said 1--WE do not know the
man." Even yet Jesus is beyond the
most Of US.
Christ's resurrection converted
Peter. From that time on he forgot his
natonalism and preached peace, for
givness and love. He ate with Gentlles,
sought to convert rather than
kill Romans, and finally died
in imitation of his master.
Christ's greatest victory is
the conversation of his ovid disciples.
That in such an age he bound such men
to him by means so utterly foreign to
their fondest hopes and ideals is mir
acle.
"Ah, never since tears rolled-since human
hearts
Beat quick with hope, to break in black de-
spair.
Law love so wingless, Faith so quite forlorn
AS that dread day on guilty Golgotha."
Nothing but the Masters reappear-
ance could have rallied the disciples.
Historically, the resurrection of Christ
is an intellectual necessity. From that
time on till hi own martyrdom Peter
never denied him. He was converted
by that browning miracle. His CONVEX
sion is our confirmation. "He doubted
hat we might believe"

FELL IN A FIT.
Street Car Passengers Have q
Little Excitement.

An exciting scene occurred on Uni
versitY avenue car yesterday afternoon.
A number of people were leaning on the
rear of the car when suddenly boy
who had been standing against
the wire guard was seized with
cataleptic fits and fell over upon
the conductor. His muscles all con-
tracted so that his body was as rigid as
iron. His face turned pale, his eyes
started from his head and he foamed az
the mouth. He was entirely uncon-
scious and was taken into Central ave
nue. drug store. where medical ASSIST
ance was at hand. He soon came to MS
senses, but was unable to help hlmselr
tor some time.
The boys name could not be OBJ
tanned, but it was learned that his home
is near the Union elevator, and that he
is subjected to such experiences, having
a fit nearly every week. Judging from
the contortions through which he went
one would think that about two such
attacks would finish the business.

The land is situated at Matteson, at

Contracts have been secured, it is said,
| ON twenty-seven parcels OF land, aggre-

at an average price OF $3.50 an scre,
or an aggregate of S1,720,0 600. Inc

still under negotiation. One-thlrd or
