At the morning ncsslon ot tbo undertakers1
Convention nearly all of tbo delegates wcro in
their scaU , looking bright and fresh as
Daisies , after their recreation at the Coliseum
last night.
The session was opened JbyMr. McXulty
Vritb a tenor solo which was enthusiastically
Cncorcd.
President Brlnghurst prefaced his remarks
Upon the opening by informing the conven
tion that ho had been led to suppose by the
action of the executive committee that he waste
to remain the president of the association , a
V position with which ho had been Identified for
I'tho ' past three jcars , nnd took occasion
' to Inform the delegates that ho
pad llrmly and finally decided
that ho could not tlevoto his time to
y the duties of that , position any further. Ilo
Raid he Iiaa taken this tltno to announce Hint
no should firmly and ( positively decline to
ncrvo tbo association in that capacity. The
czpcnso attendant upon the rropcr perforra-
Unco of the duties of that ofllco VMS dwelt
ppon and tha president announced it as hla
Opinion that the expanses of the president
Buoukl bo titiid by the association.
It was decided on account of tbe amount
Df business before tbo convention , thatit
Vrould be impossible to adjourn before Satur.
flay afternoon. This was warmly opposed by
Berne of the delegates nut was carried.
Thu committee on obituaries presented its
report , containing suitable resolutions upon
the death of members of tlio association.
_ , . Arejxjrt of the committee oa thoanti-trust
IU. which VMS adopted , -was to the effect
that thu bill abrogated nil contracts between
the National Burial Case association nnd the
Funeral Directors' association and the com-
tnlttcu endorsed the bill In all its features.
The committee on sanitary legislation rcc-
OmmcmlcJ that the stuto associations act in
concert with other organizations In securing
the passage of suitable laws for the enforce-
_ tncnt of laws on sanitation , and also in sccur-
] S\K \ the pussaRO of laws requiring the exam
ination of undertakers us to their qualifica
tions In this matter. The report was
adopted.
The executive committee recommended In
Its report that the Incoming administration
Usoovcrj-pieans In Ita power to learn the
cause of the defection In the Illinois associa
tion and endeavor to overcome the cause of
that defection if possible. Iho report con-
talncd other recommendations and was adop
ted \vliolo. .
Mr , Lnube of Virginia , asljcd if the resolu
tion , which had been adopted , to the effect
that all contracts between the association and
the National Jlurlul Case association be abro
gated , referred also to contracts between
state associations and the burial coso associa
tion.
tion.An
An animated discussion followed this ques
tion and It wa ? evident that thcra vras a
great diversity of opinion on this question. It
Beeraed to bo the concensus of opinion that
the state association had a rlgh to make con
tracts with any supply house
but could not prevent that
house from supplying dealers outsida
the association without cominR within the
pale of the law. The discussion was con
tinued In an animated manner for several
piitiutcs when itvos called to a halt by the
president on a point of order.
. The report of the committee on the anti-trust
rbillwas read by request and , showed that It
bad boon already decided that all contracts
hould bo abrogated whereupon the discus-
lion was declared out of order. The report
of the commissioner referring to this same
fubject was on motion , referred to the com
mittee on law.
The committee on trade papers endorsed
the suggestions of the president regarding
Ihe necessity of the editors of the same
elevating the standard of their publications
and recommended that , on account of the
Action of the paper which had been tnadotho
Official organ , of the association proposing
to charge for the notices of
all meetings of the association
and nil accounts of Its proceedings ,
thntofllchl recognition bo withdrawn.
_ It was evident that each of several papers
„ '
Of' the trade hail a coterie , of friends in the
convention and an animated discussion fol-
ylowcd , in which many slurs were thrown out ,
> ut the names of the papers were not men
tioned.
A warm argument nrose as to whether the
Adoption of tbo report of the committee car
ried with It the oOlcinl recognition of the
association as far as all papers wcro con
cerned.
A motion to the effect that all recognition
bo withdrawn from all papers was lost.
After considerable cross-firo the Casket
tvas officially recognized as the official organ ,
the national association.
)0f A motion that the secretary notify the edi
tors of all other papers to discontinue an
nouncing their publications as "the official
orpnn" of the tradcoccosioned another warm
dooato , and was finally withdrawn.
The committee appointed to confer with
the general association of baggagc agents and
Btate boards of health with reference to the
transportation of dead bodies , reported that
the present laws were not such as to bring
atxMit tbo desired results and advocated that
efforts be wade to secure tno passage of suit
able legislation. The report was adopted.
J. B. Mclutyro of St Catherines , Out. , was
On the programme for an address and an
nounced that ho had prepared one on "Our
Fraternal Halations , " which ho asked bo
printed in tbo proceedings and not read.
There wcro loud calls for the reading of the
POIKT nnd the writer proceeded to comply.
At the conclusion of the reading the con
tention nJiouruod until 'i p. rn.
Afternoon Session.
Tbo members wcro slow in assembling at
the afternoon session and It was 2:30 : o'clock
Vvlion President Briughurst called the con
vention to order.
A delegate from Virginia arose and said
\ ( hat no bad a resolution to offer. It was to
"the effect that Richmond , Va. , bo urged as
plactifor holding the next convention.
! resolution was received and referred.
B.Frank Kirk of Gertnantown , Pa. , was
Introduced aa the speaker for the aftcrnooa.
lie said ho was no orator and advised his
bearers to take cos ; positions , lean back and
go to sloop.
The reina'rk was received with loud ar >
plause and he then proceeded with his ad
dress. Ho thought the profession vrould
never reach a high , standing until a code of
ethics had been ajoptcj and lived up to In
every particular. ' 'Law , " said ho ,
"la a commodity that yon can buy
nnd sell as you can merchandise
lii tbo markets of tbo world. A cede of eth
ics seeks to outllno a law unto yourselves ,
pno to bo studied so that a man may shed a
lustre upon the calling ha has chosen. "
Thu spt-akor was of the opinion that under
takers should lend pure lives tbo same as
other people and should occasionally accom
pany their wives to the church fairs , "for , "
vald ho. "there you will find pcoplo raffling
off 10-r nt articles for H each. Bon'ttako
> CfleniO at this for this may cot apply to any
member present. " Ho said amaiuvhols in
tha business for tbo money , and tbo money
only , should bo got rid of us soon as possible ,
for such a man will always bo a cancer and
n thorn In the side of the association and
vrlll always be a drawback to the objects to
bo accomplished. Undertakers can gain
more by setting a good example than by tell
ing whut others should do. Ho thought
the dignity of tbe calling hod not been
considered as fully as It should have
> cen bv the men who are In the business.
U'heeyesof the people and the public nross
lire upon tbo undertaken and tills should In-
Btll them to be true uid faithful to t cede of
ctUles. It Is not so much what la accom
plished in the start , but what Is wanted , is
the confidence of the people , The spojkor
thought every man in the business should
display the sign "undertaker , " and not at
tempt to makoa show by declining ; himself to
bo a funeral director , "for , " said ho , "wo
Vrant to bo plain men Uko our fathers were. "
At the conclusion of Mr. Kirk's address the
ppphuso was deafening. When It subsided a
vote of thanks was extended to him and also
( o Mr. Mclntyro for their addresses.
Tbo secretary reported that tul * rear

J. Howcll of Illinois said the Banal Case
association tad boycotted a number of the
undertakers of his state , and ho thought It
was tirro to cut loose and let that organiza

1C it r a Liability tci Itlalnrlal Infection
Persons -whoso blood is thin , digestion
weak and liver sluggish , are extra-liable to
the attacks of malarial disease. The most
trifling : exposure may , under such conditions ,
infect a system which. If healthy , would re
sist the miasmatic taint. The only way to
secure Immunity from malaria in localities
where it Is prevalent , is to tone and retaliate
the system by improving weakened diges
tion , enriching thoblool , and giving a whole-
sonio Impetus to biliary secretions. These
results are necompllsned tynothing1 so tcf-
fecttvely as Hosteller's Stomach Bitters ,
which long experience has proved to bo he
most reliable safeguard against fever and
ague and kindred disorders , aswell as the
best remedy for them. The Bitters arc ,
moreover , an excellent invlgorant of the
organs of urination , and an active depute nt ,
eliminating from the blood those acid impur
ities which originate rheumatic ailments.
Omaha Art Exnlhibltlon Association.
A movement of great Importance to the
city was Inaugurated last Monday , and jester-
day took definite shape In the filing with the
county recorder of the articles ofincorpora-
lionof the Omaha Art 'Exhibition association.
The incorporators are Herman Kountzc ,
Dr. Ueorge L. Miller , G. VV. Llningor. Lewis
S. Reed , James W. Savage , "W. V. Morse and
J. N. II. Patrick. The object of this organlza-
lion Is the forming of a collection of works
of art , the exhibition of such collections and
the maintaining of a building for the proper
care and exhibition of the same , and the
founding of a permanent art exhibition.
It Is tbo purpose of these gentlemen , to
gether with their associates , numbering ,
twenty of the leading business men of
Omaha , to take steps to have each year in
this city an art exhibition second to none in
this country. Arrangements hare already
been made for such an exhibition la this city
during next November which will bo com
plete in every detail , lor six months past a
gentleman well Known in art circles has
traveled through the caritah of the world
collecting pictures for this cihiDltlon. Lon
don , Paris and Berlin , as well as art cen
ters of this country , hare been visited , and
their cblofcst art treasures secured for this
display In our western city , and so great bus
been the success of the gentleman that a col
lection of pictures , now almost ready for
shipment here , has been made , and Is second
to none over- before brought under ono roof
in this country.
OTho names of Bourgcrcau , Tnnls , Rosa
Bonheur. LehermcttoVe ks , Bierstadt ,
Bentloy-ICnight , Saint Pierre , Rysdeck ,
Brldgman and other-American and foreign
artists ara guarantee at the pictures pro
vided and contributed by then would make
any art collection famous , and not ono but
several pictures by each of thcso arlists are
eluded.
Among Iho most noted of these pictures is
JUourgereau's"Cominprof Sprintr , " which re
ceived the gold medal from the Paris salon of
18S3. as well as pictures byVeoks and Lcher-
mcttcwhich received the gold medal of the
same prcat Institute ; Bierstadt's ' famous
"Buffalo Hunt-which was sold la London
for&O.OOO. and which has been secured from
its owner for exhibition with this collection ,
tvim Rival uiiuciuiy ; ouu 01 uuin > s i.ir usi
and beat landscapes ; Bentley Knight's "Call
ing the Ferryman , " whlcn has been aclmowl-
edged a great work ; of art , together with
other paintings numbering about tire hundred.
Ono of Iho gentlemen at the bead of this
movement goes in a few days to Now York
city where among his artist friends ho ex
pects to collect a lurgonumbcrof other pictures
to odd further to the in terestof theexhibltion.
The result will be a collection of sit or seven
hundred of the finest oil paintings by modern
artists. But this Is not the end of the good
planned by these gentlemen. It Is intended
by them to get an exhibition of equal merit
each year and with the proceeds of this exhi
bition establish u permanent fund from which
to erect the proposed hulldir j. The lower
story of this will bo occupied by the public
library , and the upper ones will bo arranged
for the art gallery , In which to place the art
treasures , which this association expects to
collect , thus affording to the people of the
city a place for recreation and the study of
art , such 03 ivlll ho second to none in this
country.
The movement is entirely a public spirited
one , from which it is not expected by the
gentlemen engaged in it , that a dollar will bo
realized. _

A. Tiger Swallows a ficd-llot Bolt.
A. curious tale of the death , of a tiger
comes from the Sontlml Pergunanahs.
A man was seated on a , tree at night
watching his fields , whan he noticed &
tleer prowling ; and salBlng tbq air and
gradually approaching hU perch , until
it actually came under the machan ,
which It tried to pull down. The Son-
thaleo , bold by nature , sat fearlessly
looking on , considering all the while as
to what ho should do.
*
Quick as thought ho took a red-hot
iron , and as the hungry man eater with
open mouth leaped to catch hla hanging
leg , ho dropped the bolt Into his mouth
and the tiger iit once swallowed itvi th
what result it is needless to say , except
that the boast was found not far off the
next morning "stark andstiff."Thoonly
question is : " "Where did the red-hot iron
come from ? " No doubt from the next
village , which la about three miles off.
Women Who Kill Flowers.
It is a peculiar fact that some women
kill flowers within twenty minutes after
they are adjusted to the corsage , says
the Chicago Herald. Others will wear
thorn for hours and they will look ns
fresh as when they wore first- pinned on |
A florist said : "Women wear flowers
sometimes because they are vain , not
hecauso they love them. Flowers are
alive , and Jt kills them to lay near the
heart that has no love for them. They
droop and mourn theinsolves to death be
cause they know there is nothing in com
mon between them and the wearer ,
They are like little children they love
those who love them , , . 'and their best ,
brightest beauty is glv'dnjto the vroman
who pins the bouquet * on through her
love for the flowers. " JrVphyslciansaid :
"CorUdnly some women- fan kill llowers
within n very few minutes. It is a sure
indication that a poisdnuus vapor is es
caping from the bouy U > a great degree.
It may be the result oftfltaeaso or It may
bo that bathing and proper care of the
skin are neglected. "

A Gypsy's
The Now Vork Preaaiaays that-tho fol
lowing somewhat romantic story of ono
of the most popular young duchesses In
England ia perfectly true , and told by a
frlond : Before she married and , "in
deed , before she even know the duke
she had her fortune told hy a gypsy at
the races. The woman.-with the smooth
flattery of her trlbo. promised marriage
and marriage with a duke three
years of unalloyed , bliss , and then a year
of misery. Curiously , in this case , part
of the gypsy's words h yo come true.
The duke appeared , wiw and conquered ,
marriage followed , and two very happy
years. So fur good. But the 'first part
of the prophecy having comoastold ,
the yountf duchies believes the whole
must bo realized , and as the time of woo
draws nigh the fear preys upon her mind
to such an extent she cannot shaJto off
the dread , and has become nervously in-

A National Tallin .
As Illustrative of a pliase of life in
Bolivia It may he delicately hinted that
vfhilo the poor Indians are notorious for
stealing small things never under any
stress of temptation or opportunity tak
ing articles of value the Gholos , and
oven , some members of the so-called ,
"host society , " are thieves , sa.ya a
Bolivian waiter. At public balls and
private parties tha ton must bo secretly
\valched ; and in spite of all precautions
it frequently happens that spoons , nap
kins , aud costly bric-a-bruo are surrcp-
tloualy appropriated. N"ot long ugo a
young man , who is prominent in the
highest circle of society hero , had a
valuable "diamond pin stolon. He was
certain who the thief was , but said noth
ing about his loss. At the very next ball
he beheld his diamond blazing on the
shirt front of the gentlommi whom ho
had suspected ; when ho walked up to
him , pai-tncr on arm , and without any
attempt at privacy , said to him , "You
have inydiainonupinsenor , ; I will thank :
you for it. "
"O , well , " nonchalantly replied the
thlof , "it's all right ; I'll return it to
morrow. " And ho did.
