A WONDEBFUL ARTICLE.
Omaha Engineers Jubilant
Over a Successful Boiler
Purger.
An. Important Manufacture to
be Carried on in our.
Midst
Some time &goTnE BEE announced
the inauguration of a newcntcrpriso in
our city , the success of which is now
assured , and we can cay to-day , to a
certainty , that it is only a matter of a
short time until it will aasume pro
portions of no little importance as a
solid manufacturing interest in our
midst.
"We refer to the compound manu
factured by Mr. James Smith , the in
ventor , for purging boilers of the
scale generated by the water in them.
As all engineers know this scale is one
of the greatest annoyances in their
business , aud it has long been deemcc
an impossibility to remove it. The
man who could discover a perfect
boiler purgor was psaured s fortune ,
and that man has come to the front
in the person of Mr. Smith , the first
results of the use of his compound in
this city being given below. He
claims , and with good grounds thai
if his compound will remove the scale
as claimed , it will also eave [ from
25 to 30 per cent. In fuel , and this is
confirmed by the various engi
neers consulted by our reporter.
It has been used with success now ai
the Smelting works , White Lead works ,
Nail works , Union elevators and else
where , and our reporter called upon
several of the engineers to-day to in
quire as to their experience with the
boiler purger , with the following re
suits :
"A DECIDED SUCCESS. "
Mr. Edwd. Lamron , first assistant
engineer of the smelting works , eayi
the Boiler Compound is the best prep
aratlon for keeping the sccle out ol
boilers that he has ever used. The
Missouri river water generates a ecalo
in bis boilers nometimea a qnarter cf
an inch thick , composed chiefly
of lime. This scale * keeps
the heat from coming in
contact with the water , whereby a
good deal of fuel is wasted. The com
pound dissolves this scale and loosens
it from the boiler , rendering the
boilers entirely clean. Mr. Samson
added to our reporter : "It is the
best thing I have ever found and I
pronounce it a decided success. "
ENTHUSIASTIC ENDOESEMENT.
Mr. Henry Clay , engineer at the
White Lead Works has thorougnly
tested the compound , though he had
tried so many frauds that he hesitated
before he-would try cgain. Ho was
satisfied yesterday when six wheelbarrow -
barrow loads of the scale were remov
ed from his boiler. He saya , "I not
only think Mr. Smith's boiler purger
is a good thing but I am satisfied that
It is the best thlnq ever invented for
the purpose and lht it will do all that
ii claimed for U. "
SHORT BUT BWEET.
Joslah Smith , the engineer at the
Union Elevators said , " 1 have been
in the business 25 years , and this
compound is the best I over used.
That's all I can say about it. "
ON TKIAl.
When our reporter called on Mr.
David Morrison , engineer at the Nail
Works , he responded to his inquiry ,
that he had just put the compound in
a ohort time ago and had not yet
opened the boilers. He offered how
ever to open them then , aud doing so ,
ho was surprised to find that the scale
was already disolving and falling off.
"That beats all I ever saw , " he eiad ,
"I have tried acids and everything else
recommended for the destruction of
scale , but there Is nothing equal to
this. It not only has done the work
in a short time , but has done it thor
oughly. " Our reporter put his hand
in the boiler , and withdrew it again
filled with the ecale , which readily
detached from the sidfs of the floes
and boiler , and-which had become full
of pores and very soft , whereas the
scale is naturally like Iron in hardness.
Mr. Smith has evidently a fine
chance to build up a big business , and
he is already preparing to go into the
work of manufacturing the article enlarger
larger scale , ai ho Is nnable o eupply
tbo orders already pouring in on him
from this city. Ho will patent the
discovery immediately , put men on the
road to sell it , and push the business
at once to prominence before the pub
lic.
Another Desperado Bounded Up.
AL Garvey , the notorious desperado
who killed a stock man on the round
up last May in Colorado , was appre
hended and arrested in Deadwood on
the 28th day of February by Frank
Fsrber and delivered to the sheriff of
Wild , Col. , at Sidney , a few days ago.
A reward of one thousand dollars is
offered for his return to the proper
authorities. On taking him from the
jail at Sidney it was found that he had
cut his shackles , and would , perhaps ,
have broken jail in a short time. He
a also ta'd to be wanted in Texas.
Decaying Decorations.
The streets of the city are becoming
beautifully decorated with dead dogs
which for some hitch between the city
scavenger and the authorities , are per
mitted to lie and rot where they falL
We understand that the city council
some time ago , refused to pay for
having carcasses hauled outside the
city litniti , alleging that it was the
duty of the city scavenger to attend to
them. The latter declines to take the
bodies away for some reason and so It
goes and soon warm weather will be
upon ns and then the health as well
as the nostrils of our citizens will suf
fer. There must be some remedy for
this unusual state of affairs.
Special meeting of the Omaha brick
layers protective union is called on
special business , on Tuesday evening ,
March 15lh , at 7:30 sharp , at Turn

THE PEEAOHED WORD , .
Rev. Sherrill Utters an En
couraging Word to the
Young Men.
The Rev. Mr. Sherrill , of the Con
gregational church , delivered a ser
mon JSunday from his pnlplt upon
the subject of young men. Any re
marks from us upon the high quality
of the discourse would be manifestly
gratuitous. He said the first helps to
the success of a young man were good
habits and good morals ; certain and
rich rewards are hold up before every
young man who will persevere in good
habits and pursue the path of virtue.
This is true especially because of the
growth and prosperity in almost every
department of industry or in the pro
fessions , so that if a young man will
but step into the current he ia per
force 'carried along to SUCCGEB. One
office in tbia city which six years ago
employed but sir young men , to-day
employs over sixty. Every one of
these who has faithfully applied him-
selt is to-day at the head of a depart
ment and this is not an exceptional
case. What is true todaywill also
be true in the years to come.
It is a great help to the
young men of this city that a senti
ment exists among the employers
looking to the habits and morality of
the young men whom they may em
ploy. About five years since a mer
chant had said to the speaker that he
wanted a good young man in his
store of 1C to 18 years of age.
Didn't want one of your extravagant ,
fait young men ; he must have one
that cculd be trusted. It is good for
the yoang men of this city that such
a sentiment prevails. Only last week
a man said to the speaker , " J won't
allow a young man to work for me
that even drinks beer. "
"If I were in tne east to-night and
a man there should ask me if Omaha
were a good place for his son to es
tablish himself , or if there were influ
ences hero that would help him to
peed habits , I should answer about
like this : 'If you have ambitions for
your son to get into the city council of
Omaha it would be no batrier to him
that he should be a drinking , profane
aud lustful man ; but if you wished
him to embark in some business pur
suit he must have , and maintain good
habits. ' That , I believeis true to the
prevailing sentiment in this city. "
The days of the style of Jim Fiak men
are passing by , and their places are
being taken by men of more sobriety
and cleanliness of life. A man told
me respecting a young man who had
applied to him for work : "I would
have taken him into my employ but
his tendency to extravagance and a
fast life told me that I had better
watch him a while first. I soon came
to the conclusion that if I employed
him ho would demoralize all the rest
of my help. " The Bible says it is
the duty of Christians to reprove such
young men as this not turn them
away stating you have no vacancy ,
but tell them you hav.e a placa for the
right kind of a person , but that the
applicant won't do. Tell him frankly ,
that lie may see what it costs him to
indulge in wicked vicea and associate
with immoral reen ,
A large portion of the sermon has
been unavoidably omitted.
XOTES.
The bi-monthly Sunday school con
cert of ths Eighteenth Street Metho
dist church took place Sunday ,
The church was packed. Objuui-
leacon black-boards were suspended
around the walla and the festoons were
profuse and beautiful. Banners , de
signating the classes of the Sunday
school , were numerous and of brilliant
hue. The singing was perfect , and
the exercises were rendered In a man
ner worthy the occasion. Prof.
Eellum gave a very interesting ac
count of his trip to the Pacific coast ,
which deserves reproduction hero , but
our limited space won't admit it.
Those who intend taking part in
thejoperetta , "Land of Nod , " are re
quested to meet in the parlors of the
Eighteenth Street M. E. church , Fri
day evening , for rehearsal.
The Sherrill Literary club will meet
at the residence of Rev. Snerrill Tues
day evening.
There were 252 persons attendant
upon the First M. E. Sunday school
Sunday.
Bishop Olarkson Sunday repeat
ed his lecture "The
on Egyptian Pyra-
raids , " to a large audience in Trinity.
TLo lecture la full of inter eat and en
tertaining in the extreme. The bishop
preached in the morning at St. Bar-
nabis.
The trustees of the First M. E.
church are considering the matter o
raising the church edifice , for the pur
pose of building a brick basement
story , to be used as a lecture room.
This is a very important measure.
The Rev. Father Higgiiu , of St.
Louis , will deliver a lecture on St.
Patrick's night at the Cathedral in
this city. The subject will be ap
propriate to the day. High mass will
be celebrated on that day at 9 o'clock.
Rev. Haraha , of the Presibyterlan
church , lectured Sunday on the
life ' of St. Patrick. It
was a highly interesting discourse.

There is a young people's prayer
meeting announced at the First M. E.
church this evening.
The pastor of the African M. E ,
church is rather frank in his regular
Sunday exhortation. He said Sun
day , that every brother or eister who
couli behave , were invited to a love-
feast.'We will not have ibis whisper
ing and giggling and laughing , any
longer ; it is a disgrace. Our folka
shout sometimes , aud say things that
are funny , indeed we are often
a mystery to ourselves , but this
is no place for merry-making. Sup
posing some of you were at a neigh
bor's house , and you would misbehave
while present by invitation , your
hostess would not feel pleasant about
i * no indeed and we dcn't feel
pleasant toward yon when you come
hero and won't obey our rules. " These
remarks hod the desired effect. A
fiisnce as deep as tha tomb prevailed
for about two rninutee.
Two weeks ago tht > scholars of the
Tenth street mission secured a picture
of the mission building , which an old
lady had worked on perfo-ated card
boa d , aud sent it to Mies Hitchcock ,
a former teasher in the school , and
now of New York City. The picture
is { novel in its nay , and an almost
perfect likeness of the little church
arourd the corner.
