FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH BIBLE
SCHOOL.
NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

We wish to state that. the attend
ance at the School of Business has
been beyond our most sanguine expec-
tations. We have enrolled thirty
seven students to date with several
new ones due to enter next Monday,
Nov. 1. We stated at the beginning
that if we received forty students by
January 1, 1910, we would consider it
a pronounced success. Some of the
more cautious and wary are holding
back to see whether the school will
remain or succeed; to all such we
wish to state: That prudence is neces-
sary to success; it is true it never
catches the early worm, but at the
same time is not so liable to get
caught. We are here permanently I'M
til the good people of Palestine show
by lack of sufficient patronage to JUS
tffy us to remain. We have leased
our rooms for one year, from Sept. 1,
1909, and we will remain here till
then with or without support If at
expiration of that time we see that
the school is not wanted, we will be
justified in going elsewhere. We
have been in session just eight weeks
and have averaged over four students
per week. With the cooperation we
have been assured of we predict that
we shall soon build up a school that
will be credit to ourselves and

Wynn rMeh
Held Up in Night
Officers Take Suspect in Charge, but
He Escapes in Spite of Bullets
that Follow.

WYMORE, Neb., Dec. 1S.-(Special Tele-
gram. )-After four holdups in Wymore Fri
day night, the capture of a man suspected
of the work was effected. He made his es-
cape, however, while an officer was taking
hin to Jail.
At $50 tonight, as Pete Krustifek, a
butcher employed by Tony Hirmon, ives
going through the business part of town,
he was stopped by a stranger, who de-
manded money and called him vile names,
Krustifek hit the fellow, and in the fight
had his forefinger nearly bitten off. The
fellow escaped.
T. O'Hara, Burlington auditor, was held
up and robbed of 81 by a masked man in
the auditors office on the ground floor Of
the depot shortly afterward. O'Hara was
working at a desk with one shaded light
burning when the door opened. Turning,
he was confronted with a revolver in the
hands Of a man with a handkerchief tied
over the lower part of his face. There
were many people about the depot at the
time.
Mike Aronea, a machinist employed days
by the Burlington, was getting coal at the
chutes about 7 o'clock when he was held
up by two masked men. One held a ie-
volver in Aronea's face, While the other
went through his clothes, getting SO cents.
'Aronea returned to his bunk car a short
distance from the roundhouse, and hearing
a commotion in the car next to his, went in
and found the occupant, a foreign section
man, in a dazed condition. He said that
two men had come in his car and com
manded him to hold up his hands, pointing
a revolver at him. He refused to obey the
order and commenced to yell, when he was
hit on the head with the butt end of the
gun, the fellows running.
At S:45 Officer Schlangen arrested Ed or
"Bish' Polak, an old offender, who has
served time in the county jail and in the
pe%nitentiary, and who answers the rescrip-
tons of the holdup man given by o'Hara
and Aronea. Polak was in a pool hall, and
at the door broke from the officer and ran.
Three revolver shots were fired at him
and 1t is thought one took effect in the
arm. Polak turned into an alley and has
not been found.

Guilty of Conspiracy.
DISAGREEMENT ON BENDERNAGEL
Failure 20 Convict Cashier IL Dis
tinct disappointment to Off
GERS of the Govern
ment.

NEW YORK. Dec. 1S.-The Jury Friday
found guilty five of the six employees Of
the American Sugar Refining company, who
have been on trial for the last three weeks.
charged with criminal conspiracy to de-
fraud the government OF customs dues on
imported raw sugar. In the case Of James
F. Bendernagei, a former cashier of the
company's Williamsburg plant, the jury
disagreed. Mercy is recommended for all
those found guilty.
The jury was out ten hours. Under the
Indictment oliver SpltEor, a dock superln-
tendent; John r. Coyle, Thomas Kehoe,
Edward A. Boyle and Patrick J. Hennessey,
checkers, ma be punished for the commits
sion OF two overt acts, the maximum pen
atty for each of which is two years i'm
prisonment and 5000 fine.
The failure to convict Cashier Bender
nagel is regarded by the government as a
distinct disappointment. The effort of the
p~r prosecution has been to trace the customs
frauds already admitted to a higher source
and Bendernagel, though not IN executive
officer Of the company, was an employe
who came in contact with those who shaped
the company's affairs in their larger
aspects.

Rabbi Coin Pays
Honor to Parker
High Tribute to Great American
Preacher is Voiced at Temple
Israel.

Although Theodore Parker lies buried
in a distant cline, I predict that some day
his body will be brought to America said
Rabbi Frederick Cohn at Temple Israel
last evening in speaking of the life and
work Of Theodore Parker.
August "A, 1910, will be the centenary of
the birth of Theodore Parker, who was
great and noble and a true prophet, IL ever
there was one. He was born in Lexington,
wi ere the first battle of the revolution
was fought. He was s-elf-educated and
worked his way through Harvard and grad
uated from the divinity school in 1887. He
served as a minister for some time, when
he delivered his famous lecture on THE
Transient and Permanent in Christianity"
at the ordination Of a Unitarian minister in
South Boston, a sermon somewhat similar
to that delivered by Prof. Foster Of Chi
cago on the functions of religion. He was
then denounced as a hereto and an infidel,
and Unitarian ministers refused TO ex-
change pulpits with him. He was virtually
religiously ostracised.'
In 1s45 certain gentlemen, and their
names should be written in gold, met and
passed the following resolutions: That Rev.
Theodore Parker shall nave a chance to be
heard In Boston, And heard he was, not
merely In Boston, but in all America for
the remaining fifteen years of his life.
Sunday after Sunday thousands Of all
classes of men, rich and poor, flocked to
hear hin He was one of the greatest
moral and political forces of the nation,
absolutely fearless and utterly sincere. He
loved his books above all else and was one
of the most erudite men America ever pro-
duced. He was yersed in biblical criticism
and even translated De Wette's famous
Introduction to the Old Testament.
He took a leading part in the slavery
agitation when it was disturbing America
in the middle years Of the last century. He
cid as much II not more for the abolition
Of slavery than did Abraham Lincoln. He
assisted ably in the wiping OF that curse
from the American continent.
Theodore Parker died on the eve of the
emancipation and Of the civil war, which
he had predicted and welcomed, knowing
that emancipation could be brought about
In no other way, knowing that slavery and
freedom were irreconcilable. He helped
Lincoln with the arguments against slavery
Lincoln was a great admirer and reader OF
his works,
He detested all lies, even holy lies, and
he believed in the authority OF truth anc
not the truth OF authority, He made AZ
important distinction between religion anc
theology. He was a man. who for all his
rugged strength Of character, had the hear
OF a woman. In 1859 his health broke, ant
although he travelled to restore It. his
search was in vain, and he died in Flor
snee, Italy, in 1850 His tombstone has tn,
inscription. Theodore Parker. the Grea
American Preacher"
