THE OMAHA PAI T EEE : WEDNESDAY , DECEMBER 30 1891. AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA , Whit an Undertaker Says of tha Da"gar of Being Buried Alive. HOW DEATH MAY BE DETERMINED , Apply n MRlitciI Match to n Pln-t'r Tlp-Orent Solipino of nn An- dent Traveler City .Miniatures. "Most people have a great horror of being burled ullvo , " said Pat Hcafoy. "Uut there Is no occasion for such a torrlblo thing. I have hurled hundreds of corpse * and yet can soy that I never put ono underground that had a spark of hfo In It. If I did I would bo a murderer. " "How can you make such an assertion when there are evidences of many persons having boon burled nlivo I" was uskcd. "Knsy enough , The test U Infallible and unless mortlllcatlon has set In I always use It. His simply this : Take a lighted match and hold it to one of the lingers of the body believed to bo dead. If the Hush wrinkles and crisps like a plcco of meat , the person Is ( load. If it blisters , the person U ulivo. This test has saved hundreds of parsons from the terror of being buried alive. "A good many people believe that a sure test IB that of holding a mirror to Iho mouth Of the deceased and seeing whether any tnolstuio Hollies thcro indicating lhat the person still breathes , although it Is Imper ceptible. This test , however , Is not infalli ble , while the lighted match Is. If iho blood ( lows nature will form a blister at the point burnt , but If the circulation has stopped , which occurs only when the person is dead , nature has ceased her functions and uo watery mailer will .bo secreted under Iho skin at the point scorched , "You would bo surprised if I should toil you lhat some people have such a fear ol being buried allvo that they leave instruc tions that a dagger bo pluugod into their heart before they are inierred. I should much prclcr Iho lighted malch lest than to euffcr Iho possible ordeal of being inurdarail by I ho undertaker under such circumstances. "Tho of how prcsont system embalming , ever. Insures the death of the individual. Both thu heart and the jugular vein are pierced and all Iho blood lot out , so that the embalming lluld may bo substituted. Tha undertaker , however , who does not satisfy himself Ilrst that the person is dead before ho taps tlio heart oucht to bo prosecuted. "Tho cxpeiionce of nn undertaker in letting ting out the blood from a body only an houi or two do id is at first rather srary. The blood pours out in a hot , smokine stream , nnd theio is the sickening feeling that the person may not bo dead , but Is being killotl by the undertaker. But after the lighted match lest no undertaker need enlei lain such fear. " Ho Makon It Succeed. An old professional Iramp , .voarlng Iho aanio face under a new alias , Is making Iho rounds working sympathetic people for small sums the same as ho has done in Omaha , Lincoln and possibly every city in the west. His Mory Is that he lias just received a telegram from Chicago to the effect that his wlfo Is dead. That , his homo is ut Pa pil lion , or some otbcr loxvn close by , nnd ho just happens to bo out of money enough to taVo him homo , having sent a long telegram back to Chicago. All ho wants is just f > 0 cents , no more , no less. Ho is an old losidont of the stata. If talking to a South Omiihan , ho declares that ho and Dave Auder-ion cntno to Nebraska togolhor. To a Llncolnlun ho assoils that Judgo.ToaBrown nnd ho studied law together. To u citizen of Omaha , ho icmatks nonchalantly that many n tlmo tn oaily days Bill Paxton and Charley Brown linvo borrowed a quarter of him , and vhat they would now readily endorse him for any amount. The plausibility of the old fol- low's story has almost Invariably the dcslrod effect , and as ho declares thai iho money will be refunded. Ihoahckcls are forthcoming , and ho is rcaplne a silver harvest. > Dental iMoiir.trnslty. One of the dentists of South O in ilia 1ms a curiosity in tha shape of a tooth that was extracted from tbo mouth of ono of thu Cudahy employes yesterday. The toolh Is an upper molar , or , as Is commonly known , an upper back tooth. The patient has boon suffering with severe pains In the vlcintllv of his loft temple for some tlmo and could not account lor it until no noticed mat tno pains grow acute every time tils lower tooth touchnd a ccilaln ono In his uppar jiw. Ho accord ingly \\eni to Iho dentist and asked that the Ivory bo extracted. The dentist applied the forcupo , but had a terrible tlmo endeavoring to pull Iho rofraclory mulur out. Ho Ilnallv got a t1st on the instrument lhat made the patient yell "bloody murder. " But it bi ought out Iho loolh , or rather monstrosity. It was as long as the dentist's ilngor , and no gnzcd at it In astonlshmont. At the end wus n good sized ulcer. Ho afterwards measured the toolh and found lhat it was slightly over two and one-half mclio.s long. Struck by a .Motor. As Mr. A. O. Ward was crossing the motor track on Twonty-fouilh stixMt at South Omtha last night his loam , a pair of mules , was slruck by a southbound motor. Ono of the mulc.s was inslanlly killed nnd the other badly injured. Mr. Ward was thrown under thu wheels of the motor and , lliough not fatally hurt , no sustained some severe cuts.

CHINKSIO CHHIbTMAS. 1'lonnlnn nnd Peculiar Celebration at the Kirat Presbyterian Church. The pupils of the Chlnoso Sunday school had their Christinas ii.nlng Monday ovunlng in Iho lecture room of tbo first Presbyterian chun-b , and It is u question who derived Iho moro pleasure from the occasion , tha scorojor moro of young Chinamen who partici pated in Iho festivities or about the same number of American youngslors who watched them. The room hud boon filled up for Iho Mon golian celebration. Back of tlio stage hung a banner , which was supposed lo convoy lo Iho intelligent Chinese mind the Information lhat the nngols sang "Peace on earth , good will lowaid men , " and tn fact It looked just as much like that as it Uid like any olher civil ized Ih ing. From n slandpolnt ofscience or art It would bo impossible to criticise the affair. Iflhlnpsworo Inaporoprlato no ono could tell , so Hint all lhat could bo done was to tuko the comtnitlee's word for It. Biblical Inscriptions on the walls rosomulod ttio his tory of Iho Heonan-Morrlssoy prbe fight by roundsjas much as they did Ihc familiar lines on the Sunday school lesson sheets , but tno commilloo said it was strictly scriptural , and thus the preponderance of evidence was on that side. The .ilrst thing on the program was a potato race in which the yellow people were pilled against the wnito men. The Ihlng was lo ladle big potatoes into n middle sled saucer with a very small spoon. The Chlnojo got there in advance with tholr tubers. A Chinese choir vnhomonlly sang , "Tho Lord is My Shepherd , " and Mrs. Dr. Couller followed witn a Chinese lullaby. The tune was soothing enough , but the wonts would have thrown an Omaha buby into spasms. Mongolian nntcrprlso was then shown by the introduction of a couple of Santa Clauses , xvho distributed the piosents. They very co ) olv resembled the American Sanla Glaus , so far ns Iholr attire was concerned , but their antics were dh > - linclively Pcklnosquo. The program closed wilh a cobweb chase , which consisted of the ambitious struggles of a number of canary colored youths to run down the other end of several hundred yards of different hued string. Sam Walg had a patent wind that ho used In disposing of Ins hiring that hitndcnppcd ! thu Held , and ho won in a cantor , in I'JJ. : Ling Pun and Joe Chung had u lively brush for second place , but Joseph lost by a neck.

They wanted to got married , but had on money to pay Iho preacher. The girl was equal lo Iho occasion. She look Ihe preacher aside and stated tha case. She had no monov , but she did have a bolllo of Holler's Sure CuroCouph Syrup. Would ho marry thorn for t.haU The picacher would and two hearts boat as ono. Farmers and OMUIA , Doc. S3. To the Editor ot TUB Bui : : Fiom THE Bcc of today 1 clip the fol lowing : Mr. Ponaurly Insists that the Interests of thu uoiMiigiimn are identical with those of tlio farmer. Mr. 1'ouclorly InsNts that w lion the farmer Is prospoums the laborer Is pro- > - nuions , null wlion the farmer Is pinched an 1 haul up tlm laborer Is also lu dUtrcss llvon the most Ignorant wage worker must proiidiiiifQ this truism us Inapplicable to the iol.it vo condition of Iho two olussi-s , * Nobody otuht to know better than Mr. 1'ow- doily that the factory w.igoorlier. . the skilled mechanic , nnd I'm ' day laborer have little or nothing In common with the fanner. I believe with Mr. Powdeily lhat the In terest of ono is the concern ot all. When the farmer is receiving good prices for the products of his farm , ho Is then able to buy manufactured goods , and therefore makes a market for tl | > o manufactuiod goods. This gives moro of tlm city people woik , and surely bailers tholr co..ditlon. When ttio farmers are rocolvli g very low prices , they are unnblo to buy the products of the fae- lorles ihoroby throwing the city people out of cmoloymcni , and further still , when farmIng - Ing is unprofitable , the sons and daughters ot the farmers Hock to the cltloj ( a > the last. census report shows ) , and help to boat down the wugus of the wage workers In the cltlos. What Iho poor people of the cities need to do Is to co-operato with the farmers so as to biing the price they pay for the nec essaries of life that the farmer raises nearer lo iho price iho former receives. For In- slanco for onoiiL-li wheat to make 100 pounds of Hour iho farmura nro now gelling about Sl.fiO and to got 100 pounds of good Hour hero wo have to pay ? . ! to SI Si. The farmers are getting now from three to three and one-half cents per pound for ho s and wo have lo pav 10 cents for lard , lo to I'J conls for sldo moat and 12 to 15 cents for shoulders and hams. The volume of monov should ho enlarged seas as lo make prices holler for iho farmers nnd then many people will leave the cities ami po to farming and lha ncnrciiy of laborers will raise Iho wages of Iho wago-workois.

Omaha railroad mon recently rorolvod a pamphlet notion out bv the Now York Con- tr.il to exploit the details of its fast run from Now Yoric to ISutTiito. Thu dlstanco is 4'Ji5J4 miles , and iho actual running tlmo , exclusive of three stopj , was 4i. " > % minutes. This made an nverapo ; speed of about 01 miles an hour and boat the world on long distance running. The record has excited considerable com ment in local railroad circles , and the Union Pncllic passenger department has some lit- uros to show thatPiha west can compare very favorably with the cint In the matter of rail road speed , all things considered. "Here is what the Union Pacific can do in the way offast running , " said Mr. Bon Barrows , the literary man of that road. "Our train No. I , the fuSt mall , loft Chovonno ill OM'Ja. in. , arrived at Sidney at SMS , left Sidney at Si.Ti , arrived ut North 1'luttout 11 : U5 , mountain time , left North i'latto at 12:10 n. m. , central tlmo , arrived at lira nil Island ut ! : ) , loft Grand Island at 'JiliSand arrived in Council Bluffs at 5:37 : p. in. ' Tno distance was n 10 miles and the time 0 hours and M mlnutoj including fourteen stops. I don't know just how much tlmo was consumed by the stops , but llto throe at Sid ney , Noith I'latto and Grand Island agpro- puted fourteen mliiutos. This correspond" ! very closely with the three stoos made by the Now York Central. Our tram had cloven other stops , including ono of 5 min utes in stiwing by a freight train. Of course you understand the tirno the tram is actually at rest does not fairly indicate the on tire loss of time , because thcro were the delays in slowing up and in colling under full head way ni > aln. It is a reasonable estimate to as sume that the stops caused an agurogato ad dition of . " > I minutes to our train's time , which would leave the running tlmo 0 hours. That would inaku the average speed Z % miles for a distance of 510 miles. "If ono considers , the conditions the record of the Union Pacillo will compare fuvorablv with that of the Now York Central. In the tirst pluco our distance was greater. Then wo had only ono truck , and that occupied by .tho usual number of passenger and freight trains , while the Central , with its four tracks , was enabled to have a clear road with fo.v hindrances from the roirular trafllc. Again , our run was made in thu ordinary coitiso of affairs , while the Central made special preparations for its experiment and presumably had the mobt favorable condi tions. "But here is another run made bv the Union Pacific's fast mail. It loft Grand Island at 2fi7 : p.m. and arrived at , Cour.qil Bluffs at 5M5. Tno distance wa Ifid miles and ttio cross time 2 hours and 4S minutas. There wore six stops , which reduced the actual running time to very nearly if not quite 'J hours and HO minutes. That made the average speed of the train about , sixty- two miles an hour for the whole disfnc'o. In other words the Union Pacillo covered 150 miles In 1.10 minutes. The Now York Cen tral raado the distance from Albanv to Syra cuse , us miles , in HOlf minutos. Wo think western people have reason to be proud of it least ono of their railroads. ' Order for n Ticket. Mrs. Hopkins of Minneapolis , Minn. , ar rived at the Union depot yesterday morn ing ou her way to Crete and presented to tha ticket agent an order directed to 11 L. Martin for a ticket from Omaha to Crete over the Bur lington signed by McKenzIe As Pry. The order proved llctitlous , and as the oftl clals know of no ono by that name connected with the local ofllco , the traveler was com pelled to piy her fare. The oflicials Itoot the older and have sent It to the Minneapolis olllco requesting that the thing bo looked in to , for the reception of Biu-li Hctltious orders are becoming of very frequent occurrence , Asonts < onfor.

Tnc North SIde Imarovoment club effected n reorganisation Monday evening , at Twenty 'ninth and Spauldlnr streets , and Is now ready lo boom everything that Is regarded as conducive to the financial interest , comfort nnd general welfare of the northwest quarter of the city. ' 1'lfo committee appointed at a previous meeting to draft a constitution and hy-law.s submitted Its report. ) and after the usual dis cussion , with several additions and amend ments , the roDOrt was adopted. The following oQIcers were elected : W. II. Slovens , president ; Colonel Pratt , vlco pres ident ; W. M. Carter , socretarvj II. L. New- ion , scrgcaat-at-arms. The objort of thU organization of citizens , plainly staled. ' Is to keep lab on Ihoir councilmen and son that tliov got the im provements that tbov ouuht to have and that the councilmen carrv out tno work that they were elected to perform. In order to accom plish this the club , which already has n membership of fllty , will bo divided inlo numerous committees , each of which will bo entrusted with certain worlc. Memoranda will bo kept of the various things that the club Is working for , and u hen tin object is olToctetl it will bo checked from the list , but until it is thus checked olT there will bo no lot-up on the part of the members who are working to that end. The club Is after mora sidewalks , moro grading , moro sewers , more curbing , moro pivlng , moro street lights , bettor street car and railway facilities in fact raoro and bet ter everything that can in any way tend to tholr advanlagj. First and foremost tht-y nro golngafter the Missouri Pacillo Kullwav company to si'curo a restoration of the old dummy train seivlco on the Bolt Line , and they ate sanguine of success. Tholr claim is that the right-of-way was granted with the explicit understanding that quiclc and Hulllclcnt train service should bo given and that the full extent of the charier was lhat several trains a dav should bo run. Ttio company ran two trains morning and even ing for u while , but tliov have boon discon tinued and a single train is now run , simply , as the noithslders maintain , lo enable the comnany to hold Its eoartor. They do not propose , however , to make an unsupported demand on the company for a restoration of the old service , but will go before - fore It with a llxcd propsition of dollars and cents , guaranteeing the snio of a certain number of tlcKots par month. The Intention is to submit a proposition that Iho company can llml no plausible excuse for declining. They want two trains tn the morning and Iho same In Iho evening , ono for. those who have to work from 7 to ( i o'clock and another for the accommodation of these who work a limited number of hours or from b to 5 o'clock. It 1 hoped also that a noon train may bo ulllmaloly secured. The cost of ruining a train has boon defin itely ascertained , and the club will make silro lhat the railroad company is not uskcd to op- oruto the trains at a loss. The club will hold regular mcelings on the second and fourth Monday ovculngs of each month , and expect the Sixth ward councilmen - men to nltond and prollt by the work of tbo members.

War- 11Id to nil Omaliu Church. Rav. F. A. Warflold of Brockton , Mass. , who was called to the pastorate of the St. Mary's Avenue Congregational church of this city , has informed the socrolary ot the congregation that ho will not accept the call on account of the pressure brought to boar upon him by his conpregalion In Brockton urging him to remain thcro. It is said that wullo the rovcrond genllc- man was in Omaha a few weeks ago preach ing a few sample bormous the vltlaeo of Biockton was in a slalo jf unrest bordering on revolution. Mass meetings wore held at which the people of ovorv creed and com plexion declared that Itov. Mr. Wartlold was too valuable a man to surrender lo any town or city In the woolly west.

Wo want to begin right. On January 1st we take our annual inventory. In order to still further reduce our stock ( We have found it much casioi ? to count money than goods ) we intend to ' Gut ttie Pricee on Suits , Overcoats , Hats. Shoes and FurnishingGoods from now till New Years as you never saw prices cut before. Remember our photograph contest , closes New Year's eve. That if you send us a cabinet photograph of a boy anywhere from 4 to IS years of age you are liable to get one of five prizes running up to $1O in gold. That you get the photograph back after New Years. That If you think you've got a good looking boy you're a "chump" if you don't try It. 1316 Douglas Street , Omaha , Neb.
