REV. RIeGE TALKS OF STARS
Tells Philosophical Society of work
Accomplished by Astronomers
and It's Difficulties.

Rev. w. F. Rigge, 8. j., spoke at the
Philosophical society Sunday afternoon on
the subject, "The Stars" The address was
interesting and necessarily technical, full
of facts and figures which mean much
while under the spell OF the speakers voice,
but little to one who had devoted no
time to the study. Some of his illustrations
Of the difficulties under which astronomers
labor in endeavortng to ascertain the dis
tance Of the fixed stars from the earth
were graphic. The base line used by the
astronomers is twice the distance from the
earth to the sun, 1s60o0,0O0 miles, and the
visual angle formed by observation from
tho two ends of that base line and the
nearest fixed star is equal to the angle
formed by observations taken two and one
half inches apart for a distance of eight
niles i-@ .-A 49,.
He told of the minute calculations, of
actual spider webs used because OF their
fineness and smoothness in taking these
angles and then of distances calculated in
thousands of millions of miles based upon
the turning OF screw one ten thousandth
part Of an inch.
Father Rigge spoke Of the theories which
have been overthrown by observation. and
said that from the fact that about as
many stars could be seen in one direction
as in another the guess of astronomers
is that the earth is not far from the center
OF the universe; that while the distance
OF forty stars from the earth has been
ascertained at this time out of the millions
which ara visible, astronomers have not
been able to form any idea of the form of
the universe, but that a suggestion, which
is nothing more than a guess has been
advanced with some degree of plausibileness
that the universe is in the form of a mill
stone and that the milkywsy is at the ex
treme edge. Further that the solar system
is a monarchy, with the sun as the ruler
simply by reason of its mass while the
stars form a republic. The idea that the
fixed stars are suns of other systems, each
governing planets, has been discarded by
the leading astronomers. He said that hav-
ing ascertained the distance of the earth
from Sirius and the amount of light given
by that star to the planet It had been as
certaihed that II has forty times the power
OF the sun He maintained that the uni
verse is limited and that 1t requires 1900
years for light to travel from one side to
the other.

MRS. M'oUoID LOSES HOME
widow of Former Omaha Preacher In
Among the Kansas Flood
u. .. Sufferers,

Following the heavy foods of week be-
fore last in Kansas City and Argentine,
Kan, the friends of Mrs. John McQuoid
wife of the late Rev. McQuoid of the First
Methodist church of this city entertained
fears for the safety or herself and two
little children. kilograms were sent to
her, but no answer was received from them
until the latter part OF the week, when a
telegram came saying that she and the
children were safe but that all of their
worldly goods were lost. Mrs. McQuoid
was left at the time or her husband s
death with two children. one only a few
hours old. with no money to support them,
but she bravely went to work and engaged
in the millinery business in Argentine,
Kan She lived in her store building. Mrs.
McQuoid writes:
We are safe at my sisters. This is GER
tatnly the most terrible experience 1 have
ever had. Everything is gone. The water

tians Via 'The word cross Of the text
does not imply the tranxfx Of wood on
which Jeus was cruclhed. nor the cross of
trials which Paul passed through, but the
Rtonement which was made for the race
on the cross of Calvary" said he. Paul
gloried in the cross the symbol of our re-
demption, as we would glory In the flag
that makes us free or the army and navy
which protects us. The cross was once
symbol of shame, but now of glory and
honor To the Greek It was foolishness. but
TO the Christian a cause of rejoicing for
which Paul was willing to be considered as
Nth and ofrscouring. Paul gloried in the
cross as the best expression of God, for he
says, Herein is the righteousness of God
revealed Gods best revelation is not in
mountain, sea or sky, nor in birds, beast or
man, but in the Goldman. Christ showed
us God. Paul gloried in the cross because
1t draws sinners to God. He says the good
ness OF the Lord leadeth thee to repent
ance.' II be lifted up from the earth 1
will draw all men unto me- It is not Sinai,
but Calvary that draws men to God not
wrath, but mercy; not law, but love. Paul
reJoiced and gloried in the cross because
1t was the only hope of heaven In the
cross God showed His hatred for sin and
His love for the sinner and that He is both
just and the Justiher of the ungodly Paul
gloried in the cross because by II he be-
came dead to sin and alive to holiness and
God. Hence be glories not in his birth as
Jew, his education at the University OF
Tarsus, his training at the feet Of Gamaliel,
his hardships and suffering, his apostleship
and honors, but in the cross by which he
was saved.
I'm the cross of Christ I glory,
Towering DER the works OF time;
All the light of sacred story
Gathers round its head SublimA." "

ENJorNs THOROUGH PREPARATION.
Rev. williams of Toledo Preaches to
BrowneIl Graduates.

Rev. Williams of Toledo Preaches to
BrowneIl Graduates.
Very Reverend C. e. williams, Dean OF
Trinity cathedral at Toledo, O., preached
the sermon to the graduates of Brownell
hall at Trinity cathedral Sunday morning.
His theme was Culture and Service" He
said there are two forces In the develop
ment OF the perfect character. the selfish
and the self-sacrifcing, and that both are
necessary. The person who has the highest
regard for his fellows will get for him
self the best that there is in life not for
the purpose of personal qualification but
for the purpose Of sharing these things with
his fellow men,. The idea that men are to
consider themselves only as a part of the
great social communicative socialistic idea
is not correct In its last analysis. for man
owes duty to himself and is commanded to
love his neighbor, neither more or less
than himself.
In order to be of the best service to
his fellow man should prepare himself
with the best that the world affords" said
Rev Williams. He should be able to
bring to the community the fullest de-
velopment of those talents entrusted to his
care. Christ exemplihed this in the highest
degree. He spent thirty years In preparing
for a ministry OF but three years and dur
ing those three years through meditation
added to his already long preparation. Man
owes it to himself to be the best and do the
best he can; to secure power not for the
love of power. but that he may aid his
fellows. Aid them not by giving but by
sharing.
There has been at least as much damage
done In the world by philanthropists who
were not equipped for their work as by in
territorial evil doers. Preparation is neces-
sary for service, and service is necessary
to culture in its highest sense. The spring
which withholds it's waters becomes a nox-
ious fen, and the person who lives for him
self alone loses the sense of beauty and
strength which enables him to enjoy his
possessions All true culture carries with
1t the idea OF service, and all service re-
quires preparation. Money making is not
all there is to life Cultivation OF the mind
enables one to live a fuller life in every
sense, but with that ability comes the add
ed duty OF doing more than those who can
not get so much out of life"

DR.. SMITH TO SENIOR CLASS
PsstOr of First Methodist Church Delivers
Sermon to High School Graduates
OwELLs ON VANITY OF LIFE WITHOUT GOD
Eloquent Feature of Service is Col
lection of Five Hundred for Mrs.
John McouOid, Sufferer
from the Floods,

An eloquent feature Of DR.. r. Combie
Smiths baccalaureate services yesterday
morning at the First Methodist church for
the high school class of 03 was the volun-
tary contribution by the congregation of
$500 for the widow OF the late DIR. John
McQuoid, a former pastor of the First
church, Mrs. McQuoid being q sufferer
from the disastrous floods at Kansas
City
Therefore I hated life; because the
work that is wrought under the sun is
grievous unto me; for all is vanity and
vexation of spirit. ."-Ecclesiastes PIT.
Laying up in store for themselves
good foundation against the time to come,
that they may hold on eternal lifo."-I
Timothy 6-19.
From these. scriptural passages Dr.
Smith took the text Of his baccalaureate
sermon. His subject was: Life with
God: Life Without God"
The questions OF the carly centuries
are repeated in the present century and
human souls today are confronted by the
same problems that faced those OF tie
past" said DR.. Smith.
Experiences of the writer OF Eccles-
tastes are those of an all-round man,
touching every point in the circle of
human life: business, pleasure, travel,
study, philanthropy, domesticity. And he
discovers that each in turn fails to crafty
the deep longing of the soul. His dying
testimony is to fear God and keep His
commandments is the whole duty of man.
Transient Pleasures only.
There is pleasure and satisfaction in
life without God; but 1t is transient and
not abiding; heeting and not permanent.
Above all our successes and Joys is heard
the refrain, Vanity Of vanities, all is
vanity
There is a school Of poetry and phil
osophy which reflects this spirit in society
Society itself is weary, suffering from
fatigue and ennui; 1t goes from novelty to
novelty and from fad to fad, seeking to
dissipate its gloom and satisfy its quest
for pleasure.
II am not asking you to become esthe-
tic, to cultivate the religious appetite at
the expense OF every other endowment.
want you to seize every prize along your
pathway, become merchant princes lead
ers in art and science, fill all the high
and influential places in church and state,
but see that you subordinate every am
bition and purpose to the will and direc-
tion of God"
Ali the 100 members of the graduating
class were present and listened with rapt
attention to the eloquent discourse deliv-
cred for their especial benelt. The large
church auditorium was entirely filed and
the services throughout were interesting
and appropriate.

The stock yards company has made prep

the live stock shipped to this market dur
ing the week. On account of the delay in
getting the stock yards at Kansas City
cleared, much of the stock formerly con-
signed to that market will come here.
Last week the packers thought that by
the middle of this week the plants at
Kansas City would be ready to do busi-
ness, but this is now declared to be out
of the question. Advices from Kansas
City are to the effect that 1t may be a
month before the yards and plants there
win be in position to handle stock. Pack
