SAID IN THE CHURCHES
THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS NOT
WORD BUT POWER
an lRREPREsSIBLE CONFLICT
Dean Phillips at Simpson-Religious
Outlool,--What righteousness
Says and Means

Eey. ]. Fl. Garrison Of St. Louis preached
at the First Christian church iast hish'
upon THE Religious outlook. Ihere Is
a general expectation" said the speaker
..of events Of great Importance that VIII
take place very soon, of great changes that
will soon be brought about, and the most
;nportant of these changes, is that which
Is connected with religious life and thought.
The whole trend OF the literary thought ol
this ace emphasizes that truth. The great
hooks Of the age are religious. Ihis is
necessary because man is worshipins
being. Great changes are being wrought IN
the theology of the age, which IS becoming
more rational and Christian.
"The proper place of theology as con-
ception Of God and not test OF fellowship
is being recognized. The outlook for the
Bible in its eventual dominance of hsman
thought was never so great or Sood. II
holds its supreme place N the world
thought as never before. Christianity TOO
is more vigorous than at any time in It's
history. II goes forth for conquering and
subiugating the world to its dominance.
"What is the outlook concerning the
disciples of Christ? Is this great religious
body TO so on to greatness or to crumble
into insignifcancc? No religious body is
growing in this country so rapidly There
must be some reasons for this fact They
may be found in its plea Tor CHRISTIAN
union, standing together OF all CHRISTIANS
against sectarianism. This boSy eXats
Christ and not dogma or doctrine as SUI
preme in the Christian system and as the
confession of faith of the children Of God
""This people gives great prominence 10
the word of God as It's rule of faith, and
doctrine, and life. This truth is great
element of power and growth. Then the
emphasis this body has siven to ,he plain
conditions of salvation. its definite answer
as to what men must 90 to be saved, has
largely contributed to the rapid growth
of this religious body. This people stand
ready for any new truth and are untettered
in their desire for new truth. They are
ever ready for its inconline poMer'

AN IRREpREss1BLE CONFLICT
Rev. David Walk at the Church of
Christ

Rev. David Walk, in The Church of Christ
on Eighth street near Central avenue, yes
terday read Rom. 12:11-2l, and announced
as the subject of his sermon: AN Irrepres-
sible Conflict" Irrepressihle, therefore of
necessity. The fight Tor present victory
and the consummation of our hope in Jesus
Christ is on. and we must either overcome
or be overcome. The common method is
TO fight evil with evil. This seems to be
the easy way because of its naturalness.
We need not train our children in this
direction They will take to ii as ducks
take to water. Good for evil is God-like:
good for good is man-ike; evil for good is
devil-like.
TO render evil for evil is easy because it
costs neither prayer, watchfulness nor self
abasement; on the contrary, we have the
devil and all the bad passions of our souls
TO help US. 1t is thought to be manly and
courageous, and men, governed by this
principle, talk of the code Of honor" But
a duel settles nothing except the folly of
those who resort to 1t.
Retaliation does not succeed. As well
pour OIL on fames to cNtinguish them. We
can sustain no injury from an enemy equal
to that which We nlict upon ourselves
We hold the sharp edge Of the blade and
present him with the hit. 1t is as true to-
day as when the words fell from the lips
or Christ. that AL they who take the
sword shall perish with the sword"
Christs method is to overcome evil with
good and it is his method to which we
aspire. 1t is not merely passive non-re-
sistance, but positive hcnevolence which
Christ inculcates. Evil is to be overcome
with good, and the hungry enemy is to be
fed. This method is an absolute preserva-
tive. To meet curses with BLESSINGS can
not hurt. You cannot afford to steal with
the thief. Returning good for evil reflects
honor upon Christ. He prayed for his muir
derers. and died for them, and we have not
the spirit of Christ, we are none Of his
There is but one right way, and that is
Christs. To pursue any other is to irnperi

MUST BE CITIZENS.
Alien Cigar Makers at Juarez Will
Lose Their Jobs.

Ell Paso, Texas, June 4.-Aliens re-
siding in Juarez and filling positions on
this side the river, have been served
with notices by their employers that
they must either make their homes in
Ell Paso or give up their positions.
This step was taken at the instiga-
ton of Collector Dillon, who has made
up his mind to enforce the United
States law against foreign contract
labor.
The cigar manufacturers are the men
most effected by the rigid enforcement
of this law. They employ large num-
makers and many of these live in
Juarez.
They have heretofore hoodwinked
their employers by exhibiting each
months rental receipts to show that
they occupied houses on this side the
river. Whether these receipts were
genuine or not there was no means of
determining.
Some of the factories employ hun
dreds of workmen, and to keep track Of
them is next to an impossibility.
Collector Dillon notified the manufac-
turerS a few days ago that their en-
ployes must reside in this country, else
the employers themselves would be-
come liable to Indictment for breaking
the law.
The employers thereupon served no
tice upon their men that they must
dwell here or resign their positions.
Some of the workmen who did, in fact,
reside across the Rio Grande, have
taken up their abode here without more
ado.
The law applying to contract labor is
an old one, but it has not often in the
past been rigidly enforced in this city.
The law was enacted to prevent greedy
pIutOcrats, like Mark Hanna, from con-
tracing in European countries for the
half starved labOrerS, to be obtained
there in hordes, and bringing them to
this country to work for starvation
wages and to crowd out free born
Americans.
I'll Paso and Juarez are so closely al
lied that the law is somewhat incon-
venient for those who employ the class
of workmen usually found in cigar fac
tories.

WALLS OF ROPE.
Plans for G. A. r. Veterans National
Parade.

Cincinnati, June 4.-Messrs. Smith,
Nieman and Nevins, of the G. A. R.
National parade committee, called on
Chief Deitsch to discuss the police ar
engagements for the big turnout. They
were of the opinion that it would be
good plan to stretch ropes along the
entire line of march, the ropes to be
fastened to poles on the sidewalks. This
would require about five miles of rope
however The last few big parades were
ably handled by Chief Deitsch, who only
had ropes stretched at corners where
the paradeS turned. The manner in
which the police were scattered along
the line of march prevented any acct
dents from occurring, and it is probable
that wire ropes will only be stretched
across intersecting streets Samples of
ropes used on previous occasions were
shown to the committee, but no definite
action was taken.

Scott, the little daughter of J. v. Scott,

tim of an outrage perpetrated near
Fairview yesterday, by a negro named
Bud Hayden. The negro was arrested
and brought to the Jail here. Today
he was taken from the jail by seven
of the towns most prominent citizens
and driven to Mrs. SCOTS residence.
There the negro was positively identi-
fled by the child, whereupon he was
handed over to a mob that had gather
ed at the house. The negro was
dragged to a tree near the Iron Noun
tain railway within few feet from
where Ed Coy was burned for a like
offense a few years ago, and as he
was jerked into the air his body was
riddle with bullets. An Iron Mountain
train was held there over an hour, the
mob refusing to get off the track.
Dallas, Tex, June A special to the
News from Shreveport, La, says:
A thousand people gathered in Doy-
line, on the -Nicksburg, Shreveport &
Pacific railroad about eighteen miles
from here to witness the burning at the
stake of William Street, a negro who
outraged Mrs. Parish. The crime was
committed on the night of May 80.
The people erected a post near the
railroad track, near the town, and laid
the light wood and kindling, saturating
it with coal oil, preparatory to chain
ing Street to the post.
Street is a negro about % years of
age. He confessed to the crime to
cOlored minister, but said a negro min
lister named John Rhodes was impli-
Gated. When going to the stake he
looked frightened and refused to have
anything to say. He was tied to the
stake and uttered not a word as the
great cracking flames shot up in sue
cession above his head.
The flames We're started at 1 o'clock.
1t was a sickening sight which lasted
ten minues, when Street was a charred
mass.
Well known lawyers made speeches.
warning the crowd of negroes that such
crimes would not be tolerated in a
civilized community.
The woman whom Street assaulted
is in a most critical condition and could
not identify Street when caught until
a doctor held open her eyelids.

NO KNICKERBOCKERS.
Volunteers Will Not Receive Coveted
Canvas Suits.

New York, June 4.-Canvas uniforms
for the army have not been bought
yet. When they are bought they will
not be knickerbocker suits, and they
will not be Khaki cloth.
Col. Amos S. Kimban, depot quarter
master at New York, had to think
long time before he could guess how
the Khaki cloth story was Matched out.
Finally he remembered that under a
recent order issued by the war depart
ment officers of the army on duty in
hot climates may wear uniforms made
of Khaki cloth if they choose to buy
and pay for them, as they do for all
their other uniforms. 1t seems that
there is only one firm in New York
which is making these uniforms, and
a blouse and knickerbockers, here's
where the knee breeches story came
from, cost $40. It is said that the uni
forms made of this material are water
proof and very light and cool. 1t is
described as a cloth made of Chinese
grass.
The contract for 900 long trousers
and blouses of canvas, for which bids
were opened on Saturday, may be
awarded any day. These uniforms
were originally intended for the troops
in Manila.

SLEEPING CAR MAIDS.
Travelling Public Literally Taken With
the Innovation.

New York, June 4:-women are invading
fields of work which men have considered
their exclusive territory, but some don't
object. Last November the Lake Shore
limited train took unto itself trim colored
maids, and the porters, instead of resent
ing the advent, seem to regard the limo
walton special dispersal ton of Provi-
dence in their favor. while the porters of
trains where feminine society isn't fur
nished by the company look upon their
more favored brothers with envy.
There are five maids in the service, for,
though the train carries only one, relays
have to be provided. In this work, as in
every other, woman runs up against her
most hopeless Hmitation-want of physi-
cal strengthened the wear and tear of
constant life on the road, aside from any
question of work, would make her wreck
In no time. So the maid has "a hours
rest in Chicago and Sc hours here, and
even that doesn't prevent her looking tired
and worn.
The original idea in furnishing a train
maid seems to have been that she would
be an ornamental element-a finishing
touch to the luxurious mise en- scene. She
would wear the whitest of aprons and the
most deliberately f1uted of caps. She would
stand by the door and receive the paSSen-
gers, so that they might have the sensa-
