WEALTH AND PUBLIC SERVICE

In an article in T recent number 0f the "Atlantic Monthly entitled The Love of Wealth and the Public Se1- vice. Mr. F. W Taussig shows that it would be most excellent thing to divert considerable share of the special form of talent which develops and manages vast industrial and com mercial enterprises to the work Of he state. The men who have this talent are known as captains of industry. They are men of affairs, successful! men Among the clements of the de sire for wealth are love of ease and comfort the .esire for distinction the impulse to activity and the craving for power Of these elements, the de sire for distinction is one of the most effective It is among the primary human impulses, is seen in the earl jest stages of tribal relations and gathers strength as society becomes more complex.
 The impulse for activity keeps the highly successful man going along the old lines after he has already achieved aIl in the way of fortune that he can by any possibility make use of Our business man, however successful in business, has commonly no marked aptitudes in other direc- tions. and has no other resonrce thar to go on with business. He continues to scheme and work largely from the need of giving vent to his energies No other occupation is so interes-- ing and absorbing as rnoneymaking; at all events no other is so easily en. tered Hence many man who has accumulated what he once thonght quite enough. continues to accumulate more, and pies riches on riches, from the mere negative motive that he nFst do this or nothing Closely ali ea to the impulse for activity is the love of achievement Next comes the love Of power.

The lilies commence to blossom some

Potted plants are bought very much for
Easter gifts. many preferripg to give these
as more lasting remsmbranoea than cut
flowers. which are pretty for day and
then wither. The lilies, hydrangeas. cine
rarias. hyacinths, daisies and azaleas are
sold in pots. The florists are making little
baskets of the blooming plants, often sew
eral varieties In one basket, and selling
them in place Of cut flowers. The baskets
are very simple-little wooden or pulp
things-and not very handsome in them
selves, but when properly trimmed with
grasses or tissue paper and filled with the
growing plants they become things OF
beauty.

Bishop Worthington was consecrated in
1885. One of the early deans was Dean
Garrett, considered one of the greatest
pulpit orators in the church, who became
bishop of Texas. Dean MlllspauRh, who
succeeded him. is now bishop Of northern
Kansas, his talents laying more in organiza-
ton than in eloquence, however Dean
Gardner, who served as such from 1856 To
1896, preached many times from the Trinity
pulpit. 1t is said of him that he was one
of the most universally loved men that
ever lived in Omaha. From time to time
the most famous dlgnitaries of the Ameri-
can church have pleaded with congregations

Ties. Rev. Cyrus Townsend Brady, now
famous as writer of fiction and seim-
historical tales, was curate at Trinity

Genista in Favor AEnin.

The beautiful. golden. feathery genista.
a flower of the sweet pea family, has come
into favor again from the days of twenty
or thirty years ago, when 1t rivalled the
lily in popularity. Two years ago a few
were offered by Omaha florists, and they
met with such demand that last year sew
eral times as many were grown. This
year the shops were well provided The
plants are more expensive than the Easter
lily ranging from 81 TO IS. while the lily
may be bought from 50 cents to $3.50.
Probably the most expensive flowers that
can be obtained are the American beauty
roses. Easter prices have not been named
yet, but the flowers usually sell at g to 81
a dozen at Easter time. Carnations are the
cheapest flowers, as well as very popular
ones, selling at 50 cents to 81 a dozen.

First MethodIspa Pulpit.

Pulpit eloquence has been an accepted
thing at the First Methodist church for
years back down to the present day. From
1851 to 1895 the pulpit there was filled by
Rev. Frank Crane, brilliant, original and
invariably securing large audiences by
what he had to say and the way he said It.
From 1896 to 1899 was Rev John McQuoid,
the only pastor OF the church who has
been honored by memorial tablet there
in. Later came the scholar and pulpit
orator Rev. A. c. Hirst, who left Omaha
to take charge of the old historic Gen.
tenRry church OF Chicago.
