TRIUMPHS OF JESUS
Rev. A. A. Rice at the First Universal
list Church

The pastor, Rev. A. A. Rice, spoke on
1.-The Triumph of Jesus" John, xii, 13:
Fear not, Zion. Lo! thy king is coming
unto thee, sitting on an ASS colt"
He said in brief: Jesus triumphant en-
try into Jerusalem, surrounded by an en-
thusiastic multitude, well illustrates the
power of His great life and of those prin-
ciples which always end in victory. That
He entered the city, as our text recounts,
in so lowly a position as that of Sitting
on an ASS colt" deprecates ostentation
and show, and condemns such as being in
compatible with greatness, and honors hui
miity as the first requisite of true success.
Again, that his face was turned toward
Jerusalem, toward the people, and not
away from them, as with the text, "Lo! thy
king is coming ur.So thee" illustrates an
other indispensable condition of heavenly
and perfect life. In the true sense of the
term Jesus is coming to, and not going
from, the world. This is the portrayal of
the attitude of God, whose infinite power
is ever employed in the interests of His
children. So, too, mans triumph in life
is commensurate with his forgetfulness
of self and remembrance of others. Once
more: The prophecy begins, "Fear not,
Zion," in which third requisite of the
triumph of success is indicated. The ele-
ment of fear did not appear in the multi
tude who were crying "Hosanna to the
Son of David!' Nor did Jesus come to
the world with religion of fear. Fear
congeals human energies and detracts
from the quantity of life In 1t there is
no progress and no triumph. Jesus abol-

CHURCH OF CHRIST
"Assuered Success" the Subject of
Rev. David Walks Sermon

David Walk, at the Church of Christ, on
Eighth street, near Central avenue, de-
liyered the third and last of the series of
sermons on 1 Corinthians XIV: IS, dwelling
especially on the words: "Forasmuch as
We know that your labor is not in vain in
the Lord" In the original the word trans
lated vain" has the significance of void"
To the Christian who always abounds IN
the work Of the Master the assurance is
that his labor is not in vain, or that it shall
not be void of the results attending such
service. And what a mighty motive to
diligence is set before the Christian work.
err! His labor in the Lord is sure to be
crowned with success This cannot be said
of any other species of work. How sweet
labor would be could we know in advance
that it would not be in vain! The young
professional man, the merchant, the me-
chanic, the husbandman-these all must
take the chances; they may succeed and
they may not. But he who works for
Christ Is sure of his reward. God is not
unrighteous to forget your work" Sup
pose that the mother could know that the
infant son lying on her bosom would live
to be the joy and staff Of her declining
years. He may be, and he may live to
break her heart.
1t is not taught, neither Is 1t implied,
that the reward of Christian service will
always come in this present life. But then
the Christian is not living for the present
alone. He looks for a city which hath
foundations, whose builder and maker is
God. There is every incentive to diligence
in the work of the Lord. The older we
grow the stronger is our assurance. We
have had our doubts and dispelled them;
we have had our battles and won them
we have had our temptations and over
come them: henceforth we await the fu-
ture with hope. We know that the teach
ing is true, that the church is right, that
the faith is sound.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO THE
TUCKER BROTHERS
They Were in a Cart When the Car
Struck It--John Was Knocked
Insensible

John and Robert J. Tucker are confined
to their homes suffering from severe inju-
ries received in a collision with Central

o'clock. They conduct the blacksmithing

The car struck the cart terrible blow,
wrecking it completely and throwing out
both occupants. John was hit on the head
by the fender and knocked insensible, being

did not fare so we'll and was struck on the
hip by the fender and showed along the

Robert was assisted to his feet and he
went after the horse while the train crew
turned their attention to his brother.
When he regained consciousness John per-
ceived his brother, in spite of his injuries,
holding the horse a short distance from
the car. A man passing took them in his
wagon and carried Robert to his home at
800 East Eighteenth street and John to his
home at S23 East Washington street. DR..

Universal Brotherhood

At Blavatsky hall, 525 West Fifth street,
Mrs. Neill spoke from the subject
Growth" In speaking of growth in a
general way, it suggests increase material
ly, but when applied spiritually it signifies
lifting up or exaltation. How prone we
are to settle down to the idea that growth
can only be accomplished under favorable
circumstances; but it cannot be too often
repeated that it is not helps, but obstac les,
not facilities, but difficulties, that make
men. There is a higher law governing our
lives which commands US to seek the uni
versal good and calls for a universal ap-
plication of the rule of respect and honor
and love. This law is not beautiful spec
ulation to indulge in; 1t calls for higher
life. There are those who tell US it will not
do to have our ideals too high; that this
would unfit us for life as it is. 1t is not
necessarily our place to accept life as we
find it, but to help make it over. An unset
fish life kills vices, extinguishes desires
strengthens the soul and elevates the mind
to higher things. Then let US shape our
own careers, for the sooner we rise to the
heights of our being the sooner shall we
be able to stretch down helping hands to
the suffering humanity of today.

Editor Flores Says He Was In Z
Fight

Editor Flores Is beset on all sides by enc
mics, and scraps" are becoming a daily
occurrence in his life. Romero claimed
that he had fight with the editor Satur-
day night and put him to flight aided by
the timely arrival of q policeman. Mr..

cerned in this affair, but admits having had
a meeting yesterday morning. He states
that he had left the office Of his paper when
he was called by ]. A. Bernal a friend. He
turned and went back to Bernal and the
two talked together until Rafael sepul-
veda crossed the street and Joined them.
Sepuveda, so Flores says, Immediately
started in to criticize him for his recent
editorial expressions regarding the trou-
BILE with Spain. and asked him why he had
written suoh stuff. Flores replied that he
had merely written what he thought was
right. This did not. apparently. satisfy
Sepulveda and one word led to another
until they got to fighting. Flores said that
he struck his opponent several times over
the head with heavy cane and showed the
bent weapon to substantiate this. No ar
rests were made, however.

The Inevitable Law Of Loss and
Gain

The sermon by DR.. W. F. Day At the
First Congregational church yesterday
morning was taken from Ecclesiastes Ill
the general subject being Returned
After Many Days.
Among the many laws that govern the
universe is the law Of loss and return. The
lost treasure, of whatever description. can
never be returned, so that the loss Is not
still apparent. There are lost heart
treasures; the little shoes left behind re-
mind us of the totfering feet; the worn and
broken toys cause us to think of the dear
enc as he was when he left us. We think
we shall see him a babe again, when we
meet. but not so. There will be change.
a divine growth that we thought not Of.
There are lost opportunities. They can
never be replaced No morrow will bring
yesterday: how important. then. that we
realize this law of loss and regain, in the
duties of today. The Influence of this law
is felt in the return to the old home after
many days absence. We are glad to get
back, but yet we are not back in the old
conditions of life which we left.
Character is Influenced by apparently
minor details of life. and after many days
return to our experiences. A sculptor
q
thought find 1t afterward at the point of
my chisel." The past deeds are constantly
reappearing to our lives. Men like Paul,
Robert Bruce. the pilgrim fathers, have
thrown their bread upon the waters" but
1t returned to them again.
A great deal of criticism Is made about
mission work, and the large amount Of
money required to carry 1t on. And yet
In actual dollars and cents the receipts to
merchants Of Christian lands from the
Sandwich islands exceed the cost OF all
foreign missionary work.
The effects in the spiritual life are none
tha less marked. Christ said: BE not
deceived. God is not Knocked What a
man sow, that shall he also reap" We sin
today, and perhaps do not suffer for it, we
do kindly act today, and do not get our
reward, but by and by the evil or good OF
our past lives will return to US.

There never was . time when man
counted for so much as now. Inc barriers
of birth, caste. privilege and fortune nave
in great degree fallen. and there is the
amplest room for the exercise OF andivid-
ual force. It Is so In every department OF
life. We sometimes speak Of the unlimited
| competition and combinations OF modern
business life as crushing out the EFFORTS OF
| the individual worker. In some measure
this Ia true, Social science and Christian
sympathy are hard at work to correct this
evil. and new ideals of equality and fra
| ternity inspire the economic and political
| life of our day.
But, penetrate beneath this eystem of
monopoly Of which we are complai lining.
and what do we find at the center? A man!
A human brain has spun the meshes Of
that cunning web, human will sends its
electric messages along the lines of that
wide-reaching organization. 1t is man
who is the very soul of the monopoly. Con-
denim him, as we often must, fight against
the subtle letters he throws around the
common interest. yet there is something
in the force. audacity and enterprise he
displays which challenges our admiration.

ration and seeks to follow. They fail, not
merely because all such Babel building
must sooner or later end in discontinue.
but also because they lack the qualities
that make their prototypes temporarily
uccessful-vitality, energy, persistence.
self-denal, patience, courage, the founda-
lions of all true manl!ness, and the condi-
lions of all eminent success.
But there are other and still more ee
sential traits in all true manhood-a warm
heart, a quick conscience and a soul in
clined to natural piety. These three things,
superadded to the robust qualities already
instanced, are what determine whether
ones manliness is to be warped into self
ishness and insincerity or to be harmoni-
ously developed into pure, beneficent and
generous life.
Such was the heroic virtue, the gentle
grace, the loving helpfulness, the spiritual
trust of the Man of Nazareth. AS We roll
back the veil which centuries of misappre-
hension and selfishness have drawn before
his inspiring personality. we see him stand
ing on the threshold of the Christian ages
in all the majesty and peace of his trans
figured, giorified humanity. And as we
do so there comes to us with new meaning
and force the word of the ancient scrip
ture: "Ecce homo!" Behold the man!
