action on t. e part CT the Amer can ch lrches.
I'm looking over this splendid audience
tonight | see representatives of many Prot
estant denominations who are greatly in
terested in the work Of foreign missions,
but fail to see the drab suit of Quaker.
From these good people we may learn a
valuable lesson. They support one foreign
missionary for every $50 members in their
meetings (churches). and one foreign mission
airy for every 166 adults in their meetings.
Just think of it! What other denomination
IS there that can make such a glorious show
ing? I5 there any church in Omaha, even
though 1t have many times 250 ccmmuni-
cants, that supports by its own aid alone
one foreign missionary? We have been
taught in the past many Wholesome lessons
by these coed people composing the society
of Friends. We may learn many good les
sons from them now, and in the future,
but none Is more important than the Jealous
work that may be done for foreign mis-
s!ons."
Rev DR.. Sarderson. Pastor of the Trinity
Methodist church, said the greatest thought
ever in human mind, or divine mind, was
the evangelization of the human race
There is nothing utopan or fanciful about
the idea of these missionary boards in send
ing Chrst's gospel to all the world" said he
These boards are constantly calling for
volunteers, and their appeals are ever being
answered. Since the days of Wesley there
have always been bands of brave men ready
and willing to go among the heather. The
one thing lacking Is the necessary financial
aid | should speak of this phase CT the
matter had not my time limit been reached. -

Authorities Capture n Man They HIVE
..H.t. Been Laying For.
Last evening q young man went Into the
drug store at 102 South Twelfth street and
asked for 10 cents worth of arnca. He
threw down bill, which was taken at first
by the druggist for S5 greenback. 1t was
badly crumpled up and suspecting some
thing was amiss the proprietor took 1t to
the light and found the bill was formerly
81, and had been raised from this denomlna-
tion to So by means of colored inks.
He reached into his money drawer ard
drawing out a revolver, slipped around back
of the stranger and succeeded in locking the
front door of the store. He then told his
customer that he should consider himself
under arrest The man made feint for the
door, but glancng down into the mouth of
the doctors" revolver recorsidered his in
tention and gave up peacable, merely saying
that he could tell where he had received
the bill"
The police have been looking for this man
and friend Of his for several days past.
Last Monday they went into a grocery store,
near Tenth and Hickory streets operated
by William Vom Krooge, and passed a SINH
lar bill to the one found last night. Another
bill is also supposed to have been passed
by these men on S. Kardonsky, a merchant
on South Tenth street.
