The Union Pacifis depot at noon to-day presented a rather confused appearance , and one not often wit nessed there. The water has risen between North Bend and Fre mont so that further efforts to tramfer passenger ? , mall and baggage abont tbo break are nseleis and through trains over the main line of the Union Pacific are abandoned. Arrangements were Taer < day made to send trains from Oma ha to Kearney by tbe B. & M. ronte , and train Ne. 7 , the emigrant train , was the first to take that road Tues day. Train No. 3 went that way yesterday , No. 4 will come in the same way , and all through trains for the preient will follow suit. An extra train was made up and run to Fremont. After to-day regular trains will be run between Fremont and Omaha and between North Benc and Kearney Junction , until the flood subsides. An ice gorge in the Platte has ta ken out a bridge near Valley ou th O. & B Y. , and trains over that line Are for the present abandoned en tirely. Everything now depends on the action of the Piatto river , as the moving of the gorges may at any time relieve or raise tha water , blockade. At Schuyler and Rogers , on the U. P. , trouble from the river is ap preheuded. The B. & M , Js running its regular trains on the main line , though there is considerable trouble from high ter nloug the road , but some of the branches are abandoned. A snow fall between Bastings and Lincoln took place Tuesday night. The Nebraska division cf the Chicago cage , St. Paul and Omaha road is still nterfered with by snow. On Mon day the snow fell to a considerable depth along the line and drifted into the cats.

Oar readers will recall the announce ment in THE BEE , a few days ago of the death of Onah Shafer , which oc curred at her mother's residence , in this city. The following tribute to lor memory is taken from The Shenandoah - andoah ( Iowa ) Reporter : "How many good , beautiful chll dren , the pride of their parents' i&arts and the joy and sunshine of ; helt homes , have fallen this winter aeneath the blight of that fell de stroyer , diphtheria. Their bright eyes , their roty cheeks , their golden , sunny locks and the silvery ring of their merry laughter all lave passed away like a lovely , beautiful dream. The moth er's heart is pierced , and , like Rachel woepiue for her children , will not bo : omforted by cause they are not. Oh , bow tenderly , how eiquuitely , how eloquently appealing to a feeling na ture are those precious tears which un bidden flow as Love's last , fitting tribute to the dear ones , who have enwoven themselves in our heart's warm affections who were our light , our life , our joyl Even grief , for their Bikes , is sweetl Such a one was Onah Sbafer , who died at Omaha , last Saturday , of this disease. She was well known in Shenandoah and to many in its im mediate neighborhood , to all of whom she endeared herself by her thought ful , obedient , gentle , loving nature. The idol of a mother's hour , who cared for her with aU of a mother's lore , during most of last summer she llved with Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Elliott , with whom she found a home and who to her were friends indeed. Here ever cheerful blithe , and happy tne summer passed pleasantly away , and some will well remember th'o modest pretty little girl whom we now describe , culling flowers in the gardens as they passed by , herself a fairer flower. But Au tumn c&mt > , and Mrs. Schafer removed to Red 0k , to make her bometherc , and Ouah bade farewell to her Shenandoah - andoah friends with deep regret ; consoled with the endearing thooght that she wonld never be separated from her mother , but that In their own home they would dwell happily there. How sweet is home ! To her childish fancy It was almost heaven. Red Oak contained no purer , lighter heart than boat in 0nan's bosom. Bat it seems that she was the child of vicissitude , for her mother bought a residence in Ocaaha and they removed thither. Here , they lived happily , nntil last Thursday , when , whle attending school , she was taken suddenly sick with diphtheria , and on Saturday her gentle spirit passed from earth to heaven. Her remains were brought back to Shenandoah on Monday morning's train , and af ter funeral services at ihe Congrega tional church , all that wajr mortal of Onah Shafer wu gently laid to rest by loving hands in the beautiful little cemetery on the hilL Let her' rest in peace. The virgin-Enow that en shrouds hot grave is a fitting emblem of the purity of tha heart which it contain * , and when the feathered choir return this spring they will sing the requiem cf her who once was ai g y , as gentle and at loving as them- eelvcs. " A Conservative Fireman. To tbo Editor ot Tni I&s : As a fireman , and one who has been in active sarvica in the volunteer de pariment for years , I am pleased to note the comment in Sunday morn ing's isauo of The Herald upon the proposed raise of salary ot the chlel engineer , as well as the idea conveyed through the daily papers "of Mr. Gal- ligan's eminent fitness for that posi tion. tion.I I find also in the daily papers long and strong articles of praise with re gard to his undaunted bravery and perilous feat at the fire ot Fridaj last. Had not that particular feat been performed by the brave volunteers of the various companies many times that day during the fare ? Will any .one venture to say that any member of Ho. 1 Engine company , or any other volunteer of the department , would quail to face any danger wither or without Chief Gallagan. Do not the articles referred to attach to this department a lack of that bravery es sential in a fireman. We give our chief all the credit entitled to bis position and our work shows the willingness.and readinees with which we have at all times aided him. Ii he entitled to sny more praise at a salary cf § 1200 a year than the volunteer whose services are rendered gratuit ously ? We think not. Chief engl neera do not extinguish fires , nor does public santiment ; yet , we believe that all organizations should have head and front , and we , as firemen , feel confident of our ability to furnish from the ranks such a leader when occ'slon requires. For from the ranks has our chief obtained the material which represents him in his absence. Deplorable would bo the safety of the public in case of ac cldent to our chief were there no ma terial to take his place. Where Is Sheely , Mnrkel , Kennedy , Simpson and others of our well known citi zens and firemen who have in the past led us , and successfully , too ? I am pleased , Mr. Editor , to note your comment on this matter. Upon the subject of salary and upon the expense consequent on entertain ing-visitors spoken of by Mr. Galli gan , we believe it not to be cnstoma ry , or to say the Jeast , judicious , for a chief to umako an extravagant dis- pl y upon a $1200 salary , nor do we believe it wisdom in this city council to raise such salary in order to meet each extravagance. Rather suggest a plan by whch | tbe chief can curtail expenses , that his friends and the de partment may bo benefitted thereby. Respectfully , A [ NOTE. The above is published by request.

The Omaha Turkish Bath and Electrical Institute , Under the Management of C. M. Dinsmoor , A. M. , M. D. In response to an invitation sent to yonr reporter by Dr. Dinamoor , ho shouldered hla pencil and prepared to take items , thinking that there -would bo nothing uncommon to write about , he having taken his annual bath in Cut-off lake and not being familiar .with the details of. . tha latest phase of civilized bathing. Imagine his sur prise on being shown a multiplicity of electrical apparatus that would do honor to a section of Edhon's factory ; a largo variety of costly mechanical appliances for eradicating disease , and a series of bathing rooms fitted up with scrupulous neatness , taste and elegance. The Importance of the Turkish bath as a remedial agent is , wo find , in dorsed in the most forcible language by nearly all the greatest medical au thorlties and practitioners of the present day. The various modifications of the Turkiih bath , that Tire used in special diseases , are also endorsed by the same authority in a way that leads us to believe that Dr. Dinsmoor must be quite.right when he tells us that In the cities this agency Is very largely displacing older systems of medica tion , and that only the country vil lages maintain their positions in the ancient ruts worn by the desciples of Esculap'ns. ' , Seeing the importance this now and , to the practitioner , somewhat costly system of doctoring , your re- reporter will now tell you what ho taw in an hour at the Bath Institute. First Wo were shown the electro thermal bath , with twelve electrodes arranged to communicate electricity to any part of the body. A switch board , which is a gem of beauty , con trols the flow of the electric curtents , which aro'div'ided'Into primary and secondary , made strong or light , and placed where they Trill do the most good. The electric apparatus was made by the Mclntoah Galvanic Belt and Battery company , of Chicago , and is said to be the finest extant , The details were all arranged , Dr. Dinsmoor , who is undoubtedly , a master of the electrical arts. Next wo were shown a combined gal vanic and Faradic battery run by . thirty-eight gravity cells ranged on shelves ] , and looking for all the world like a collection of candy jirs , but the beautiful silver machinery connected therewith resembled an Improved typo writer. The induction ceil , ! rhootome , polo changer , rheostat , galvanometer , hard rubber switch beard , and all the other details of this wonderful machine were shown in all their beauty , and the price of the instrument , § 700 , was probably only sufficient for a small profit mar gin ; ] to the manufacturers. Wo sro told that Chicago has nothing to surpass this ! instrument. It alao was made by the same company that built the elec trical bath. The western climate seems to be specialty favorable to the production of nasal catarrh , and for the success * fnl treatment of this disease , Doctor Dinsraore has purchased the most ap a proved instrument known to the pro fession. It was devised by Dr. Ale- Konzie , of London , and is now in general use by prominent practitioners throughout the world. In form it jreaemblea & Babcock fire c extinguisher , and it is warranted to * put the fire out of a man's nose in all stages of the conflagration. Marah's'cumulativo health lift , cost ing $100 is one of- the ornaments of the institution. In regard to this corrective of deranged circulation and muscle invigorator , nothing need be said , for almost every one is familiar with it aud all are _ unanimous , in ita favor. ! The moat remarkable , perhaps , of all the curloutfthings your reporter examined was the laryngoscope invent ed by Tobold. This beautiful Instru ment looks like ajarge silver student lamp with telephonic attachments , nntTby Us aid "red lane" is m du to appear aboUt the size of Farnham street , BO powerful are the magnifiers and refractors used. By its aid dis eases of the throat ara correctly de fined. The. Telephone Is used in both the institute and the doctor's residence , and the frequent calls for the doctor show that be has an important prao- tico outside of the sanitarium. The baths are , however , the mos t important , perhaps , of the entire out fit. The rooms are twenty-one In number , are divided into the tepid- aria m or w riu room , the calidari- um or hot room , the laridarium or shampooing room , aud the frigidarinm or cooling room , and the dressing as rooms. In the first room a pleasant warmth makes you happy ; in the second end , the torrid temperature of 170 degrees Fahrenheit makes the sweat run in creeks down the back and loosens the dead scarf skin ; in the third , the scientific manipulations of skilled operator produces upon your body a most delightful sensation , as he searches out every muscle and sinew and puts them separately through au energetic drill , winding up with a glorious shampoo and a nicely tempered shower both , which slides eo gradually from hot to cold that you scarcely realize the change ; then you are con la ducted to a couch , where , wrapped in sheet of spotless white , your fancies tnay lightly .turn to thoughts of that luxurious clime , where this exquisite and health-glving-'proccss had Its birth. In rooms adjoining , the sulphur- vapor , the mercurial vapor , electric , shampoo , soft water , salt water , sul phur water and Roman biths are ad ministered. The Swedish movement cure , with ita wonderful health giving manipula tions is here administered. The Tat ter is by some supposed ts derive its curative properties from spiritualistic or occult sources , but Dr. Dinamoor of denies this as do all truly scientific to men. men.Good ventilation is secured , and the most scrupulous neatness is every . where manifest. The success which has attended this establishment is re markable , considering the fact that Dr. Dinsnioor has kept his light so , well hid that even the newspaper i jj fraternity , who'-aro tupposed to ; , get I i on to everything , " have known noth ing of the extent of the Institution. Many years' experience as a practising physician , with grad uation from the beat medical schools in the land , eminently fita Dr. Dins- moor to bo tbo head of this Important enterprise. Ho employs thoroughly trained , polite and attentive assis tant ? . Mr. Faux , au experienced man in the Turkish bath business , manages that department to the full satisfac tion of all concerned. The morning hours are devoted to ladies , and in the afternoon and evening ! and Sun day mornings gentlemen have the rooms. The best people of Omaha , including bankers , merchants , profes sional and military men with their families , pitroniza regularlyhe | ( Oma ha Turkish Bath and Electrical Insti tute , and if all our readers would take a few more Turkish baths they would take far less calomel and jlap.

" Roahello was born to greatness and her genius has al ready placed her in the galaxy of bright starato bo the bright est. She is the coming queen of tragedy and her subjects are hailing her as such every where as is indicated by the lavish encomiums of the prea ? , without exception. The Kansas City Times says : "In the character of Evadne , JEtoahello appears to splendid advant age. She declares that it IB her fa vorite role , and certain it ia that it is character which fits her face , figure , stage appearance and methods , ex ceptionally woll. It seems incredible that this 13 the third lima this talent ed young artiite hai over appeared in this character , yet , never theless such she alleges to bo the fact. She treads the boards a one to the manor born , and her work Is charac terized by an attention to detail grouping and stage effect seldom.found in many of * ihe older members of the profession. In the trying statue scene she did remarkably well , and wss Interrupted- with frequent bursts .of applause. Thia econo is very difficult , especially to the tyro in dramatic art , on account of its purely declamatory character. It h ro the dramatic stage what the mad scene in "Lucia" is to the oper atic , and hcs always baen considered one of the severest teats of the aspir ing young tragedienne.
