roo MUCH FOR THE BARBER
Confeases His Inability to Cut Curls
Into Little Girls
Hair.

Some people have queer ideas OF come
things" observed the barber as he adjusted
the towel and took up the shaving mug and
brush. "a short time ago a woman came
in here with a little girl. She wanted the
child's hair cut and brought with her a
fancy picture from a magazine fo- me to
work by. She wanted the little girls hair
trimmed so she would look Just like the
picture and the child in the picture had
curls. but the little girl whose hair I was
to cut had none. I simply had to tell the
woman that II there were curls there 1
could cut them out, but l couldn't cut any
in, and she seemed surprised that /
couldn't make her child look like the pic
ture."

HIS FIGHTING CLOTHES ON
Drunken Man Covers Hotel Dining
Room and Tries Issues
with Police.

While laboring under the effects OF a large
load of corn Juice Henry Storey walked into
the dining room Of a Tenth street hotel and
commanded that all the diners should leave.
Stationing himself at the dining room door
he assumed the duties OF chief clerk and
porter and would not permit anyone but
himself to enter the apartment. The bred
help quickly made an unconditional sur
render while the landlord telephoned for the
police. Detective Savage and officer Woold-
ridge soon arrived to escort Storey to the
station. But he would not have 1t that
way. He kicked the detective under the
ear, landed the patTolman on the floor and
had to be dubbed into submission before
he would relinquish his control Of the din
ing room. After he was taken TO the patrol
wagon he amused himself by kicking Pa
troll Driver Vanderford in the back. When
he arrived at the station he presented a
deplorable sight. His head was badly lac
Grated and blood was streaming from sew
eral wounds in his scalp. He was locked
up on the charge Of being drunk aud dis
orderly and will have his hearing this
morning.

unless he changed 1t for a clean one he
would be discharged. Words followed and
later the hot coffee pot was thrown against
Bates cheek, inficting a deep cash and
badly s~calding him.. In attempting to avoid
the further onslaught Of the angry en-
ployer Bates fell from a porch and dislo-
Gated his right shoulder. He was escorted
to police headquarters, where Assistant
Police Surgeons Mick and Hahn attended
him. He was later locked up as a com
planning witness, while Matte was given

GREATNESS is FROM GENTLENEss.
Rev. YOst So Reminds His C~Ongrega-
ton in an Address.

Rev. YOat So Reminds HIS COnBreBh-
tiOn in an Address.
THY gentleness hath made me great" was
the text used by Rev. Robert Yost at st.
Mary's Avenue Congregational church yes
terday morning for an address in which he
emphasized what may be accomplished by
tender ministration.
His remarks were scarcely a sermon, but
rather a series Of word-pictures illustra-
tive OF his thought, and a number OF quota
tions from the scriptures showing how often
men are therein admonished Of God to be Of
Christ-like tenderness, moved ever by char
ity and mercy.
In conclusion he said: 81 insist that no
man is truly great unless God made him
30, and the gentleness Of God is here this
morning. You never will be great unless
you have that gentleness OF God within you.
Just let your life be controlled by the Hfe
OF Christ. Just let him have complete con-
troll of you and gentleness will make you
great.
81 think sometimes I am a sort Of cow
ard. | always visit a criminal when called
to. but I confess / shrink from it, and l
think IL were to ask you this morning to
go to the county jail and there talk with
the prisoners none would be anxious to go.
Yet let us remember that someone, you
know who, once said: I was sick and in
prison and We visited Me not"
A pleasing feature of the service was the
song of a quartet comprising Miss Stapcn-
horst. soprano; Mrs. Martin of Fremont,
contradict; Mr.. George Aulabaugh, tenor,
and Mr.. A.. L. CASTOR, basso.

jerks ON THE MAN WHO SUCCEEDS
Presbyterian Pastor Concludes Series
of Special Sermons.

Rey. DR.. jerks, pastor Of the First Pres
byterian church. finished last evening his
course OF New Years sermons on Getting
a Start" The branch OF his subject con-
sidered on this occasion was THE Man
Who Started and Succeeded" His text
was from John i-42. Thou art Simon-thou
shalt be called Cephas, which is by inter
probation, a stone" He said; Peter was
a great rough rock from the quarry, against
which the experience OF life, like sharp
tools, were used TO bring out a shapely
character. We sec him at a disadvantage
under the processes OF formation. Time
and again he comes to the very verge Of
failure. when he denied the Lord with
oaths he seems TO have plunged to depths
irreclaimable. Surely Satan had desired TO
sift him as wheat, but his faith failed not.
ITO take the defects OF character and
raise them to usefulness and power and
beauty is success. In this Peters life is
an inspiration.
Peter il = a "a He Il strong.

QUENoHING THE RELIGIOUS FLAMES.
Rev. EccIes Believes that Discour-

Rev. EccIes Believes that Discour-
aged Christians Are Doing So.
Taking for his subject Wet Blankets"
Rev. Eccles, pastor Of the Emmanuel Bap-
fist church, Sunday morning delivered a
discourse upon lessons taught through the
cooling of the ardor Of church members
and those who had affiliated with the
church.
In beginning his sermon the pastor dealt
largely with the fact that in many cases
members of The Christian religion fail to
have a good word for the church Of which
they are a part, and live the life of a Chris
tian merely as a machine and without the
loving instincts and cheering words which
are expected to emanate from them. AS an
example of this, the pastor referred to the
Israelites who we're unable to secure Hd-
mittance to the Holy Land and illustrated
the causes for their refusal. Ho said that
today the church was looked too keenly
upon as a social organ instead Of a Chris
tian organization. He said that in many
cases where the works and 1talrs of the
church were not to the exact liking Of
the member, cold water was thrown upon
the endeavors of the organization and every
attempt made to discourage the good II
was seeking to accomplish. Complete
abandonment Of it's efforts was too often the
case noted in many OF the denominations.
He said that in all congregations there Is
a certain element that is always discour-
aged because the good works are not Of
their personal endeavor and effort, which
results in wet blankets being thrown upon
the aims and Jealous work of those who
are striving to have the church gain the
position 1t seeks. After the profession Of
religion the first element in a church which
is to be considered is harmony. Without
that future success is impossible.

ENVIRONMENT IS NO EXCUSE
Rev, Smith Holds II Not Accountable for
Waywardnsss
MRS, woUoID is PRtTTILY RECEIVED
Wife of Former Pastor of First Meth
odist Church snluted with Her
Late husbands Favorite
Air.

The Apology Of the Sneak" was the
topic treated by Rev. e. Crombie Smith in
the pulpit of the First Methodist Episcopal
church Sunday morning. The pastor drew
the modern analogy from the biblical story
OF The Tragedy of Haman," preaching
from the tenth verse Of the seventh chap
ter OF Esther as a text, 80 they hanged
Haman on the gallows that he had pre-
pared for Mordecai." Rev. Smith said in
part:
"All the demons Of hell could not keep
from heaven a heaven-sent soul; all the
angels Of heaven could not keep a hell
bound soul from hell.
Environment is no excuse for vagaries
OF character. Consider Judas and John. the
two disciples who we're constantly with
Christ for three years. Both lived in the
same gracious and benign influences. Yet
John was always the true disciple, while
Judas had a black heart through it all, and
ended his life in the greatest tragedy
known.
Nowadays you often will hear men who
say that every woman has her price. Such a
man has a heart SO black that even the
white, pure angels themselves would not
escape insult"
Mrs. McQuOid PrettiIy Received.
A moving feature Of the services was
the spontaneous and entirely unpremedi-
tated reception given Mrs. John McQuoid.
widow Of the former pastor Of that church.
Mrs. McQuoid has been in Omaha during
the past week with her daughter, Emme-
line, visiting her former friends. Her pres
ence In Omaha was not known to many Sun
day morning and she entered the church
unheralded. But Thomas ]. Kelly, the or
ganist, recognized Mrs. McQuoid as she
came down the aisle, and Immediately al
tered his organ offertory from the theme
announced to improvisions on Rev. Nc
Quoid's ~favorite in his lifetime, my Ain
Countree." Mrs. McQuoid noticed the rec
o~gnition Of her presence conveyed in this
tribute to her husbands memory, and she
was visibly moved. BY that time the con-
gregation was generally aware that she
was in its midst, and at the close Of the
services she was surrounded by a host Of
friends, each Insisting on having some por-
ton Of her time during her stay here. Mrs.
McQuoid is making her headquarters DUR
ing this visit at the home of DR.. and Mrs.
A. H. Nipple, 3OO6 Dodge street.
