Churchgosrs on South Tenth street Sun

stood In their trent yards and said things
that seemed scarcely appropriate to the
hour. These remarks concerned a party or
parties unidentified who, during the night,
bad w%antonly INDUCED in q petty destruc-
ton Of property on the west side Of the
street clear from Harvey to Pine.
The path Of the miscresnt was some like
that of a storm. there appearing TO have
been a growth of force as the agent pro-
'ceeded. Between Harvey and Howard hitch
ing blocks and sidewalk nags were torn up
and thrown into the street. Near the Jack
son street corner the performance was re-
peated. Then there was a long skip to the
Methodist church near Pierce street. where
the boards we're torn from the sides Of
the steps. Between Pierce and William, In
front Of Fred Stubbendorfs residence, the
large stepping stone at the curbing, with
his name chiseled in It, was tossed out into
the street and broken. Ed J. Cornish. a
little farther on, had the iron tie posts In
front Of his home wrenched loose and
thrown down, and In the same block some
precious little trees Imported from Virginia
were bent until their slender trunks
snapped. The performance concluded with
the complete demolition of the wooden
fence in front Of Paul Getzschmann's, Tenth
and Pine. Mr.. Getzschmann called the po-
lice and the police asked for a clew. J.
"Clewi" Mr.. Getzschmann Is reported to
have repeated scornfully. IF I had a clew

NEBRASKA AND GRAND ARMY
Veterans Figure on Sending Big Train
to Encampment at washing
ton in. october.

The question OF an excursion to Wash
ington to attend the annual encampment
Of the national organization of the Grand
Army Of the Republic Is being discussed
among the members of hat society In this
city. The encampment will not be held
until October, but arrangements will prob
ably be completed for aJsNebraska ex-
cursion a month previous to that time,
Said q member Of the society:
I'VE had six carloads Of Nebraskans at
the encampment at Cleveland. but expect
to have many more at Washington. There
are more soldiers Of the Army of the
Potomac In Nebraska than of any other
division OF the army, and the session to
be held at the national capital will give
them an opportunity TO visit the scenes
OF their army experience. We will use
considerable caution in selecting the line
over which we will travel and will ascer-
tain which route will take us over the
greatest part Of the country over which
the Army Of the Potomac operated. II
we can secure an attendance SUFFICIENT we
will run a special train and have stops
made at stations near the battlefelds OF
the army so that we can make short ex-
c~ursions to those places. Washington Is
replete with interest to the old Boil
der Of the Army Of the Potomac. Within
easy travel almost every famous battle
by that army was fought. We should have
at least 200 in attendance from this state
and will start the work of arranging the
excursion In time to permit all to make
arrangements to go"
The state encampment will be held al
Hastings in the latter part OF September
and a large delegation from Douglas county
will be present.

ON THE CHURCH AND EDUCATION.

At the First Baptist church Sunday morn

on tho subject, "The Church and Edu-

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore
get wisdom. and with all thy getting get
understanding" A collection was taken for
the Baptist college at Grand Island.
Wisdom is not merely knowledge" said
the pastor. lone may know a great deal
may have a college diploma or two, and
still not be very wise. Wisdom is a spe-
cial kind OF knowledge. A wise man knows
the true purpose and ends Of life and
also knows what ends to employ to at
tain this end. knowledge is power. Wis
dom is power understood and properly d.
rected. II is the province Of Christianity
to bring wisdom into knowledge, to teach
men he true end Of life and how to at
tain 1t. Education is the training and de-
veiopment OF the power Of the soul, but
all such training should be toward the
highest ends; hence all education needs
the wisdom Of the gospel.
The first duty is that OF inspiration
and incentive. There is a marked diff
ference in homes in relation to education.
In some homes the children have no other
thought than that they must go to school
regularly and do faithful work. and they

show.

CORTLAND beach, as usual, had another
tremendous attendance yesterday. II was
the largest outpouring of people, SO far
this season, for q Sunday, and until the aft
ernoon shower came up promised to ex-
coed even the Fourth OF July attendance.
The cloudy sky didn't deter the people
from going early to the beach. In the morn
ing the cars were all comfortably filled and
by noon extra cars were put on. BY $3.50
o'clock the one-minute service was landing
passengers at the rate of 100 a minute at
the beach entrance. There were many pic
mic gatherings in the groves and the bathers
numbered more than on any previous occa-
sion this season. The big drawing card was
the performances OF the great Beckett fam
fly, who began a weeks engagement. They
gave one Of the most sensational and ar
tistically neat exhibitions OF acrobatic skill
imaginable. turning somersaults, both sin
gle and double, from one trapeze to another;
casting; virtually playing ball with each
other in the air and making leaps twenty
two feet, catching each other, and Beckett
juggIed with his wife in q way to astonish
the auditors, They also gave q novelty
ladder act. introducing all kinds of aero
battle feats. including head stands, hand
stands muscular, horizontaIs, etc. Every
act OF the entire performance was received
with hearty and continuous applause. The
Bicketts give a special ladies' and chill
dren's matinee every afternoon this week
at 4:45 o'clock. They also perform every
evening at s45 o'clock. AS these acts are
both awe-inspiring and thrilling, they must
be seen to be appreciated.
The colored quartet received another ova-
ton. Their songs are particularly catchy
and the audience, as usual. insisted upon
extra numbers until the quartet was COM
pletely tired out.

GOD. NOT A MERE ABSTRACTION.
Rev. L. @. Clarke Explains HIS Con-

Rev. l.. @. Clarke Explains His Con-
ception of the DIety's Nature.
Rev. L. G. Clarke Of Belle Plain, Ia, yes
terday preached at the First Methodist
church upon the subject, Jesus, the Re-
deemer Of the World"
"a great many people have the idea that
God is some mysterious functionary, like
the government at Washington, with little
or no ~personality-a sort Of a vague abb
straction without tangible form or being.
That is a grave mistake. God is a concrete,
infinite being, incarnated and therefore i'm
personated by the Son, Jesus Christ. He Is
the Maker Of our souls and the Father Of
our spirits; not that alone, He is the Re-
deemer of the world"
The minister then portrayed God in all
His attributes, showing them to be not
merely abstract forms and theories, but abb
solute, tangible. concrete facts. His love.
liberty and truth we're all incarnated.
"Abstractions are things that can be read
lily comprehended and analysed. without
profound substance. Who can fathom the
depth Of that boundless love which led the
Father to give the Son on Calvary for the
redemption Of mankinds Could liberty be
appreciated without the glorious triumphs
which have marked the progress OF free
C~hristendom7 Could even Americans as
thoroughly understand and as keenly feel
the great meaning Of that sublime word
without the revolution before them7 Who
can say that truth Is not incarnate, Infinite
and eternal7
This is God. But to know God we must
think Of Him, Of His purposes, commune
with Hin and live with and for Him. Nc
assimilation was possible without a%ssocia-
ton.
IT glory Of relationship with God Il
the power thai brings us into fellowship
with Him." said Mr.. Clarke. This is 8
point too often misunderstood. Fellowship
of His sufferlngs did not imply mutual phys
ical pain or suffering, which mistaken theory
often leads TO a sort Of useless melancholy II
Christian service, but His children mus
suffer because Of sin. II they would thu
come into fellowship with Him, who, incar'
mated In the Son, died because Of sin and
