Special to the Platts raouth IIehalij. The most important and eminently Huceesnful banquet that was ever given; was given by the Lo.ird of trade lat night at the board of trade rooms. And the whole massive strueturc as completed was lighted from the bot tom to the top, fcix blories in all and thrown open for the first time to Omaha's distinguished guests from all portions of the United States. The fctara and stripes were beautifully displayed over the whole building in all parts of the room, and beautiful trop ical plants were displayed so as to pro duce an almost tropical scene. Four long tables were loaded down with the most luxurious menu that ever tickled the palate of a conuoissurc of the "Gate City" There were about 230 covers laid the banquet and about 220 participated amongst the most prominent and wealthy men of the metropolis. All the large cities of tho west like Denver, Salt Lake, Sau Francisco and Portland, sent distinguished men to the opening and banquet; from the nor!' St. Paul, Minneapolis, Deluth, and Siou. City furnished their quoto; from the sout'.;, :T.- T -t. T.uuis, Memphis ami iott o .is s ... ..icir prominent citizens to the "Gate City" banquet, and the east representatives from New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Bos ton, Milwaukee, Cincinnati, and other prominent cities furnish their quoto of prominent men. Sam Allerton and Phil Armour the two millionaire of Chicogo, sat at and enjoyed "the feast of reason and- flow of soul" at the first board of trade banquet Mr. C. C. Rogers and Wm. P, McLaren, the president of the board of trade of that city and her most weathy citizens were present. The president or vice president of the board of trade of the afore mentioned cities were present. The loading state o Ulcers of Nebraska sena tors and congressmen were present, and about 220 of Omaha's most prominent business men belonging to the board of trade. The guests were assigned to their seats at 8 p. m., filling up four large tables, running the full length of the room. The president, secretary and directors were seated about a table running at the sides and rear of the platform, while from the hollow square so formed, arose a great pyramid of fruits rnd flowers. While beautiful strains of music came from the gallery, where the musicians sat amid the miuature forest of palms and ferns. The guests were served in five courses as follows: OTSTZUS. BIuo Points on tho Shell. SO CP. Clam Chowder a'la Hudson. l-isn. dauterne. California Salmon. Sauce Chutney, Poiumes tie Torre Hollandaise, Fillets of Grouse a'laCuarabord, Bordeaux. Olives, Asparagus, Celery, uomax rorciT. Cisaxettes. Lohstcr Salad Vayoanaise. Charlotte llusse. Coffee, lioque;ori CneHse, Water Cracker?, KKUIT. Nuts ami Kaisius. Cigars. x Champagne. As soon as all had satisfied the inner man Hon. W. V. Morse arose and respond ed to the toast "Master.s Greeting." Mr. Morse gave a sketch f Omaha's financial history, said some very interesting odds and ends relative to her growth, and wrs continuously applauded. He said that in the absence of Mayor Broatch, the toast "The city of Omaha" would be re sponded to by Mr. Fred W. Gray, who said that he considered the city of Omaha a very large one and referred briefly to her growth and prosperity. "Welcome to our Guests" was respond ed to by that prince of humorests Judge Savage, in his original and quaint man ner and was uproarously applauded. He said "I read about the first post master of Cleveland Ohio cariying around the mail in his hat." He said that A. D. Jones was the first postmaster of Omaha and carried tho mail in his hat that he had made to order for the service (this was over thiry years ago) and that the said Jones had worn the same hat contin uously since that time anil that sometimes the hat 'would get the better of the post master and th-j post office would go rolling over th prairies where the streets of Doug:a?s, Fauiaui and Harney are nowlOv'ateJ, much to the disgust of the proud snd haughty handler of Uncle, Saiumie's P. O. bags. "The State of Nebraska" was responded to in a most eloquent and able manner by Senator Chas. F. Manderson. He re viewed the past and spoke in glowing language of the present and pictured as only a cultured gentleman can that has spent the best part of his lifo in the "great west", lie spoke of her live stock, hogs, cattle, horses and sheep and how Nebraska was rapidly becoming first in rank in thews animals. He paid trib ute to our state in the growth of wheat, corn, barley and oats. The Senator showed how he had introduced a b'll in congress and seeing that it was passed making Omaha a port of entry but that under a democratic president it was vetoed. Tho Senator further stated that he was going to introduce a bill in the next con gress asking for an appropriation for a U. S. court house of one and one half million dollars and also for an appropri ation to buy a cite. In closing the senator said that he had a scntament which ho wished to propose. It was this: To the Gate city, the Young Giant of the West: May the census of 1900 give you 300,000 happy, contented, prosperous people within your borders. As the senrtor took his 6eat the ap plause was tremendous, The Hon. James W. Savage then read Mr. Thomas L. Kimball.s response to the sentiment, "Railroads, v that gentleman having been unavoidably detained at 'ioi!in. Mr. Kimball's response was of greatest interest, and received loud cheers. Mr. W. A. S. Gibbon responded to "Trad.? Manufacturers and Industries of Omaha" with a short though interesting oration. "Banks and Bankers" was eloquently responded to by the Pres. of the Neb. National Bank, Hon. H. W. Yates. He gave a brief history of the banking in terests of Omaha, and treated his subject in a masterly manner. It will be remem bered that Mr. Yates is a national author ity and author on banking. "The Clergy." The deacon of Trinity Caihedrial responded to this toast in a manner that reflected great honor on him self and the church. The subsequent toasts were: '-"Public Improvements in Omuha," W.J. Connell; "The Press," G. M. Hitchcock: "The Bar," General J. C. Cowin; "The Ladies," Mr. John Evans. It was a late hour before tho lights went out. Another Fatal Casoline Explosion- Lincoln, Neb,, Oct. 4. Mrs. Belle Faulk, living in the Patvin block in this city, while lighting a gasoline stove to d i3' had her clothing set on fire by es caping gas and before help reached her her body was horribly burned. Physi cians at ouce put her under the iuflu ance of opiates to relieve her sufferings. After lingering several hours she died this afternoon. Mrs. Faulk was the wife of a carpenter living in the city, and her deatli is the second one in the last thirty days from defective gasoline stoves. Shaking Greece- Athens, Oct. 4. A shock of earth quake was felt throughout Greece this morning. The disturbance was the strongest on the northern and southern shores of the gulf of Corinth. Strata of a Brooklyn Street. They are digging for foundations of the elevated railroad on the made ground at the foot of Fulton 6treet, Brooklyn. Just in front of the Annex ferry house is a hole which has historical interest. At a depth of two feet a brick pavement was reached resting immediately upon a layer of cob ble stones. This was the grade of Ful ton street at that point twenty-three years ago, when turntables were used to reverse the street cars. Four feet below the surface is a pavement of rough round stones, and this waa in use fifty years ago when tho old stage line halted there. Eight feet down is a deep black stratum showing the high water mark of the old landing used in colonial times. The piles will probably have to go very deep to ob tain a firm hold, for all the old maps show that less than 150 years back a little bay ran up Fulton street as far as Front street, and Jewell's mill was out on a point. New York Sun. Hawk and Coyote. A coyote in Walla Walla was attacked by an immense liawk that liit him fair on the back of the head. The coyote would duck liis head, then make a snap at the hawk, but could not reach it, and at the end of twenty minutes was literally pecked to death. New York Sun. Costa Idea's Mineral Springs. The recent diseovery of several valu able springs of different mineral waters in Costa Rica has caused the government to issue a decree declaring all such to be the projK?rty of the state, and ordering that in future none shall be transferred to private ownership.

"Eggs begin to como from the south in January," said a Dry street dealer, "and thy run up just like shad and Btrawbcrries. A few come' from Texas. There Is big monoy In the business there if it Id developed. Eut it fen't worked up yet. North Carolina starts n first. In about four weeks sf terward we get some from Washington, which como from the Shenandoah Valley. Then come tho eastern shoro eggs." "Which next?" "Pennsylvania, and then come Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky. Ohio usually drops in a month after North Carolina, but this year she was even with her." "Which aro next in tho procession V "Tho far west and eouthwest, by way of Kansas and St. Louis. Then Iowa and Illi nois. After them como northern Indiana, Minnesota, Dakota, northern Iowa and Michigan. We get some not many from Dakota." "How about New Yorkf "This state Lasso many largo towns that most of her eggs are consumed in the interior markets. Arter they get through pickling however, New York dealers send as 6omo fresh eggs in the summer. Canada conies next to the far west. Foreign eggs have been barred out this season becauso prices have been better in England. They took very well where they could bo sedd for enough less to make it an objoct for people to us them." "Why aro Bouthern eggs so much smaller! "That is l)causo they adhero 60 rnueh to tho came fowl down there.

"There aro firms in New York rtato that pieklo from 100 to 1,000 barrels, 840 to a barrel. Iowa has single picklers that put away from 600 to 5,000 barrels, and so has Minnesota. Chicago has refrigerators that can hold 50,000 cases. In this city tho refrigerators nre only used in cases of emergency. But talk about pickliiiR eggs, Germany takes tho load.

He picKtes yearly from 75,000 to 100,000 barrels of eggs, or from 63,000,000 to 84,000,000 eggs." Now York Sun. A Hig Crowd Fooled. An incident happened the other day that melted a crowd in a hurry. A tall, quiet man stooa looting intently at a show window on Broadway. Two other men paused and looked in to see what tho curious object was. In a few minutes f our messenger boys unre luetautly drew up and concentrated their gaze. In three minutes at least twenty men, women, boys and Chinamen were clustered around tho tall, quiet man, and trying to dis cover the great curio that attracted hi atten tion. He said nothing, never moved and in tently kept his eyes fixed on the show win dow. Several policemen strolled by and asked tho crowd to arrange itself bo that people could get by on the sidewalk. Every moment the numbers increased and they soon stretched far up and down the street. Tho proprietor of the store came out and went back and asked for the clerks who or ranged the window, in order to find what special attraction they had put in for tho public gaze that morning. A little nowsboy who edged his way to tho sido of tho tall, quiet man, squinted his eyes at the window and blurted out: "I don't see nuthin." But the quiet man continued to gaze before him unmoved. "Hey, mister, what der yer seeP queried the bootblack, touching the coat of the quiet man. He turned and said: "Nothing; I am blind ; I am waiting for my boy." The newsboy gave a keen whistle and ran away. Tho crowd separated, each ashamed to look tho other in tho face. New York Moil and Express. Looking Out for His Fleet. It was a horny handed, bronzed cheeked, blue flannel sbirted son of Neptune I waa in terviewing on the lako front. This gentle man owns a small fleet of row boats, which he rents by tho hour. I had just got 25 cents' worth of wild hilarity out of one of them, trying to row on choppy waves, aided and abetted by frequent "cat" winds that sent tho boat spinning around in every direction but the ono I wanted it to go. We naturally dis cussed tho squall Saturday night. "As soon as I saw it comin' up," -emarked he, sitting down, crossing his legs, and spitting with accurate aim at a knot in a board, "I char tered a tug and went out to look for my boats. I brought on! that lady and gentle man who landed on tho government pier and lost their boat. I always charter a tug when I see a storm coming up, though it costs $10 every time; but I don't care for a little ex pense in a case of this kind." I was just on the verge of being lost in admiration of such a free, generous spirit exhibited in this ago of sordid money getting, when he finished with great candor and the air of taking me into tiis confidence: "You see, if anybody should be lost in one of my boats I wouldn't be nblu to rent another one in a mouth." Chicago Journal. Character Tested by a Bluslcal Note. Now it is a fact, well known and beyond dispute, that every animate or inanimate structure responds to some chord or note of music, called, I believe, the dominant We have all felt some building vibrate in unison with the pulsation of some note of a musical instrument; we have felt "creepy" shivers run through us as some musical chord ia sounded. It is well known that animals are strangely affected by certain harmonies. Some day, who civilization has advanced, 1 believe thst these evidences of psychological structure will be better understood. It will be recognized that vice and virtue are in accord with different harmonies, and yield to the power of different dominants; and, when once the classification is made, and the dis closures of the dominant understood, then the extent and influence of the dominant will be a psychological test to define the character and ruling passions of men's nature, and to decide the fitness of men for the various pur suits of life, and even for life itself.
