JUDGE BAKER VISITS OMAHA
Says Inhabitants of New Mexico Have
Greater Ability Than Outsid-
ers Presume.

Judge B. S. Baker is in the city from
Albuquerque, N. NJ. Speaking of condi-
lions in the territory the judge said: "Peo-
pie living outside of New Mexico do not
give the inhabitants credit for the ability
they possess. l find the native Spanish
people to be all that could be desired.
Spanish is no longer recognized in the
courts, all transactions being in English,
but in nearly every case we need an in
terpreter. Some of the jurors cannot I'M
derstand English, and many of the wit
nesses are in the same condition, but in
spite Of this l find that the verdicts are
as good as those in Nebraska and that the
jurors arrive at conclusions in equally
short time.
II believe that New MEXICO will be a
state in a few months and that Arizona
and Oklahoma will come in at the same
time. There is little or no opposition to
the change in the territory and it is GER
tainly fitted for statehood"
AS supreme Judge of the territory Judge
Baker holds court in Albuquerque in the
Second judicial district. At stated terms
the judges meet at the territorial capt.
tai, Santa Fe, and hold terms of the SUI
preme court.

this morning Judge Smith Mcpherson of
Iowa will be on the bench and Judge Mum
ger of the Nebraska district will be in
Des Moines, where he will open the May
term of court for the Iowa judge. This
change is made at the instance of Judge
Mcpherson, who had upon his docket n
number of cases in which he did not de-
sire TO preside at the trial. 1t was in
tended to have Judge Munger exchange
with him temporarily during the trial or
those cases, but it was afterwards deter
mined that this course would not be ad-
visable, as it would be uncertain that both
judges would be through with cases at the
same time so that they could return to
their own districts. The result vac an ex-
change for the term. The agreement is
subject to change. however, in case botn
judges should find themselves free on some
Saturday evening during the term, so that
a change could be made.
Judge Munger has decided that he will
not need assistance at this term of court
and Judge Garland will not come from
South Dakota to assist in clearing the
docket.

SUGGESTED BY MAN IN MOON
Rev. Newton N. Mann's Sunday Morning
Sermon at Unity Church.
ALL GREAT TRUTHS ARE NOT VISIBLE
where sight and Reason End Faith
Lifts Up Her Torch and We
Must walk On I'm Its
Light.

At Unity church Sunday morning the
pastor, Rev. Newton N. Mann, preached
from the subject, Suggestions From the
Constant State Of the Man in the Moon"
The fact that the man In the moon
never changes his position" said he,
makes it apparent to even the least
learned observer that only one hemisphere
OF our satellite is ever turned toward the
earth. With that hemisphere the telescope
has given US large acquaintance. On the
whole It is even much easier Of exploration
than is the surface OF the earth. no Ions
voyages being required, no vast regions
rendered inaccessible by the cold; and so
Il has come about that. we have maps
showing with much detail the topography
of the entire visible hemisphere Of the
moon, which Is more than geography can
boast in regard 20 any corresponding part
Of the terrestrial sphere.
with the exception Of a very narrow
margin. the opposite hemisphere OF the
moon remains forever invisible to human
eyes. We have no means OF telling what
there Is on the other side.
Now It is conceivable that somebody
might set UP the claim to eyes which act
differently from ordinary eyes, and which,
by aid of some newly discovered ray OF
light that passes through everything, or
some alleged rejecting surface lying be-
yond, actually see the side Of the moon
which is turned away from us. Such II
one would produce a map Of the to us In
visible region and the world would divide
on the question as TO what confidence
should be placed in the new pretensions.
It is readily conceivable that such a claim
might after a little meet with wide ac-
ceptance among that large class of people
who are fascinated by the mysterious and
the occult. An interesting problem would
then be: How Is a rational mind to stand
on the moon question?
The supposed situation is paralleled in
the religious world. ana has been time out
of mind. Certain questions present them
selves to every inquirer which he can never
solve, for the reason that they take him
into realms where knowledge Is not attain
able. They transcend his power Of think
ing. or the evidences which would put
them to rest are hidden from view. They
are the reverse side of the globe of truth.
screened from solution by the impossibility
Of getting at them. OF this character are
all ultimate questions of being-Whence
are we? Whittier do we go? What is NAV
teri What is mind? How are they con
nected2 What is the nature OF the Abso-
lutte Power? Is It conscious? Is it per-
sonal? And a thousand other queries
which present themselves persistently.
There are many things we cannot prove
which are very dear to us. Where sight
and reason end, unable to further go, faith
lifts up her torch, imagination paints the
scene with dim and airy imitation of real
ity, hope springs immortal. We need not
always doubt where proof fails, for there
are other indications to uphold our trust
we may walk on, even II there be nc
clear vision"

Once again the members Of the Jackson
ian club, who gathered expecting to hear
O. report from the executive committee ON
the South omaha situation. were disap-
pointed. W. II Herdman had the report
already TO be submitted when he received
word from the Magic City which caused him
to- refrain from submitting the report Sat
uraay. Mr.. Herdmau would not state the
nature of the report. bu, said that Il true
it would change his report completely.
The evening was spent listening to
speeches. One. by a. H.. Nipple. who fav-
ored dropping the idea OF the free coinage
Of silver. another bv L. J. Dunn, who be-
ltevod that it would be impossible for the
party TO drop the issue without endorsing
the Fowler financial bill and all republican
ideas of finance.
W. Il. Shoemaker made a lcng talk to the
members Of the club. i'm which he said the
state democracy could not afford to re-
affirm the Kansas City platform this year.

TELLS WHY THERE ARE TROUBLES.
Rev. jerks says They serve to Perfect
Imperfect souls.

Imperfect Souls.
Have you ever visited the great smell
ter down at the rivers edge? It IS she
most interesting place in Omaha said
Rev. Edward Hart jerks in Sunday morn
ing's sermon at the First Presbyterian
church. on The Discipline of Trouble"
There you will find, il you are permit
ted to 90 through, piles Of rock contain
ing many minerals. and these are mixed
with infinite care and precision, and are
cast into fires. Later there is drawn off
after the Stag the metals-gold among
them. And this gold is subjected to n
beating, finally to appear in beautiful form
to bear the candles in the house of the
Lord.
with this in mind we must be i'm
pressed with the beauty and the force Of
the illustration drawn in the first epistle
OF Peter, wherein he speaks Of the trial
Of faith as the firing Of gold. 1t Is a won
derful figure given in there, for gold is
the most beautiful of our metals and It is
produced out Of the hardest experience and
greatest labor the world has ever known.
1t is so with Christian character. God
would make us perfect through trial to do
His will Most good things must go
through a test to be proven. Peace is won
by struggle and sacrifice and it is the fight
that brings the Joy Of the peace, Of the
victory. You value a man by what he has
gone through. His struggle and victories
write character in large letters that men
may read them. And this was what the
apostle meant when he referred to being
tried by fire.. 1t is the discipline Of trou-

HOLIDAY INSTEAD OF HOLY DAY.
Rev. j. w. ConIey on the
Dissertation of the Sabbath.

Rev. j. w. Conley on the
Dissertation of the Sabbath.
In Europe the Sabbath day has become a
day Of drinking and worldly pleasure and
the American people, quick to learn from
having come in contact with the emigrants
from that country, will soon have to decide
whether the Sabbath day is to be a holy
day or a holiday" began Rev. ]. w. Conley
In his sermon at the First Baptist church
Sunday morning on "a Holy Day or a Holt
day"
He continued: There is a lack of apprs-
citation of the day on the part of the peo-
pie that causes this state of affairs. Under
Che old laws a day was set apart to COM
memorate the deliverance Of the people Of
Egypt, but the old law is dead, and we set
apart the day to commemorate the deliv-
eranee OF Christianity. 1t is set apart as
a day of rest with q purpose and not merely
as a day when we stop our usual labor, but
q day upon which to serve the Lord.
This day, however, is being made a
holiday, instead of a holy day. Theaters
are allowed to run Sundays; saloons are al
lowed to remain open and the day is being
made a day OF worldly pleasure. 1t would
be far better did one keep on with the
weekly grind than to take this day set apart
for the Lord and make ,of II a day of pleas
ure. 1t has come to such a pass that more
crime is committed on Sunday than any
other day; more arrests are made; the
newspapers on Monday contain more police
news, more news of horrible crime than on
any other day. When we make 1t a day OF
pleasure-seeking we TAX 1t down from thai
high pedestal and destroy that element Of
moral strength which is so much needed
Personally l do not believe in Sunday news
papers. do not believe it helps one spirit
'ually to read a Sunday paper before coming
to church, and / believe that Sunday eX.
c~ursions are among the worst dissertations

daily. One company has Just completed a
iume 1000 feet long. thirteen feet wide
and three feet high. which will carry the
waters Of the creek across its ground. leav-
ing the miners nothing to contend with but
the water which naturally flows through
the gravel and on bedrock. The new COM
panies propose to use belt conveyors, on
which the gravel will be dumped by
scrapers and then conveyed to the head Of
a long string of sluice boxes, into which it
will be dumped automatically. thus doing
away with much handling. One company
last year which had cleaned up a small
space on bedrock got almost sac, 900.
Quartz mining in the vicinity of the camp
is also looking up and several good loca-
lions have recently been made, while a
number of properties which have been
opened to a slight extent show good ore
bodies.
