nev. Trunk Craneat the First Methodist
church last evening , for a prelude to his
sermon , talked about the death of Oliver
Wendell Holmes.
"Wo have all been to a funeral , " said
he. "When I fay all , I mean to Include
the great company of those who are Infected
with the gentle love of letters , to whom
authors are real friends and book writers
actual acquaintances , It not In the body
certainly In their literary spirit. And utter
all the literary soul of an author , his delib
erate self-created personality , vvh.ch he ex
hibits In his writings , is so much more sat
isfactory than the living body. I take a
grim pleasure In never having looked Into
the countenance o ! many of the great men.
There Is no memory of trivial physical cir
cumstance to mar the beauty of the Ideal
face which looks In upon my mind Tell me
that I never have met Carlyle , Plutarch or
Krancls Uacon' ' I am better acquainted
with them than with many who shake my
hand every week. To be sure. I have never
sat In their parlor and listened lo their small
talk , hut 1 have sat In n corner of their soul
and listened to ther deepest cogitations.
Therefore , when our friend Holmes died we
all went to his funeral We stood In the
dripping rain , beneath the gorgeous banners
of the turning maples , watched the casket
deposited In the earth , listened to the sing
ing choir , and shed n tear over the fresh
mound that held one of the noblest o
earth's dead. What a famous place sol

literati of ' 94 seem to lack seriousness
They do so much fooling. With a profoum
admiration for the literary skill of Howelh
wo cannot escape the constant feeling o
regret that lie seems to have devoted hi
talents to meandering gossip and soda
empirics. And How ells Is at the head o
American letters. However , perhaps thi
same excuse can bo given for our author
now that the newspapers offer for tlieli

"One of the most discouraging signs of tin
thought of this day to one who looks to tin

Yesterday was the third anniversary
the opening of the People's church , and tl
discourse of the pastor. Rev. C. W. Savldg ;
was retrospective. Ills text was : "The Lei
hath done great things for us ; whereof v
are glad" Snld Mr. Savldge :
This Is the third annlversay of the ope :
Ing of this church. It Is lilting that \
should take a hasty glance at God's deallni
with ua during these years.
TiB greatly wHo to talk with our i\\
hours ,
Ami ask them what leport they bore
heaven.
And how they might have borne more we
como news.
Qed has dealt very graciously with us
Individuals. At Jhe close of the rcvolutlo
ary war King Oeorgc asked his chaplain
Klve thanl.s to Ood. "What shall I gl
thanks for , " atked the chaplain , "becju
the thirteen colonies have bjcn. successful
their revolt , and that your soldiers ha
titan whipped on land and sea ? " "No
said the king. "Thank Oed It's no worse
" So In our lives wo pray to God that It
as well as It h. Especially as n church h
(3o < l blessed us slnro our beginning. Ma :
things were against us at the start. V
wcrp poor. The- pastor did not have cnoui
to buy a loaf of bread for Ills family. T
church had no members and no rongregatlo
and the pastor , fully believing that God vv
leading , bought this house of worship , n
In three months had paid for the name. V
swept out this church with our own hnn
and announced , the service ; the people rai
nnd Rod gave'us blessing. God has greal
tested us during these years by flnanc
losses and by darkness and dcsponden
In our own souls , by false professors , a
Ijy a multitude of other means. The re i

In our own souls. We Imvo clearer vie
ut Him and IIU word We have been del
bu | uc t with God , We can never fort
what GoJ has done for us along splilti

God. has also abundantly supplied o
wants in temporal things. When we stepp
out tq " ( ilk with the Lord by faith , men fate
to us "Where vlll you g t your supportIVe
IVe- answer , 'From God. " At thai time '
support , but we bad. wi&t ! w
always bring money - hen absolutely needed ,
namely , falih In God. And we want to
say to Ills praise today , we have never
lacked , but have frequently had to glvo
to others. God has alEO blessed us In our
labor for souls. During these three years
I have preached two sermons , and very often
three , every Sabbath , and ( pent much of the
time every day during the week holding
services In the church or In the homes ot
the people. I have made 3GOO , pastoral
calls , have attended on an average about
twelve funerals a month , and seen GOO souls
clearly and powerfully converted to Ood.
Wo have 100 members In the People's church ,
most of whom have been saved from sinful
lives. Not ono of them uses liquor or to
bacco , and they are going on to know Ihe
deeper things In the school of ChrUt.
I have been n minister seventeen years ,
but I have never associated with abler Chris
tian workers than we have. The people
here are , as a rule , poor , but they arc sin
cere and the transformations In their lives
and homes Is something wonderful , We
have also a very precious company ot young
people , who lUa Jesus In their dally lives

of our city In closing' , I would say God
has savH me from fear. I have learned to
believe Him , ami walk with Him. He has
helped me also to hold to the position taken
for Him. Mnny told me that I would be
soon wearing the fine dress I once wore. But
the Lord has taken the love for these fine
things out of my heart I have no longing
for my diamond , gold natch and rings and
Knight Templnr Jewel , because I have
.Tcmis , the fairest among ten thousand
Thank Oed for the pnst

Too precious to put It In bricks nnd mortar
I want to tee 509 souls converted In the
next year Ministers are now knocking on
our doors for admission. May Oed give
us wisdom lo try to work for them and grace
to help execute It. I pray Oed to bless jou

terenlliiR .Statistics.
Brigadier General John H. Brooke , com
mander of the Army of the Platte , has.
Is&tied his annual report. In his
statement to the adjutant general
of the United States army General
Drooke says : "During May und part ot
Juno the operation of the Union Pacific rail
road , now under control ot the United States
courts , was Interrupted by the action of
certain Irresponsible bodies calling themselves -
selves "Industrial armies , " nnd during the
months of July a.ml August the transcon
tinental roads and branches were seriously
Interfered with by strikers In both cases
the United States troops were successfully
used to restore order and open the roads to
traffic "
The latter subject will bo used by the
general In making a specal report , which
will be ready In a few days.
General Brooke * says that the Indians
throughout the department have been quiet
and peaceful. He rencvcd his recommenda
tions of last year that the authority of com
pany and other commanders should bo fur
ther arguniEiited by authority of law so that
minor disciplinary measures m ght legally bo
put Into their hands The general thanked
the olllcers connected with this department
for their zeal and ability , and called the
attention of the government to their an
nual statements attached to his report. In
the notes of the report Is a complete review
ot the movements of the troops In suppress
ing the lawless strikers In the west , and the
opening of irafilc after the roads had be-
ccmo blockaded ,
HEALTH OP THH SOLDIERS.
The medical d rector's subjoined report
shows that only twenty-one deaths occuired
In this department during the past year , and
one ot these deaths was n suicide The
sanitary records of Camp Pilot llutte. Forts
\ VashakIelloblnson , L ) . A ltusll and
Omaha , may be considered as satsfnctory ;
these of Forts Nlobrara , McKlnney and Sid
ney are less fortunate. Fort McICInney
suffered from a severe epidemic of Itillueiua ,
seventy-two cases , and Fort Nlobrara , In ad
dition to fifty-seven cases ot the same dis
ease , had an outbreak of tnJlar.al fever which
summed up forty-three cases. The distribu
tion of this latter fever In this department
requires Investigation. Ot the eighty-eight
recorded cases , Fort Nlobrara had forty-three
and Fort Wofahak e tvv nty-one , the other
posts following Port Omaha with eleven
cases , Fort Sidney with four. Fort Iloblnsan
with three ; and sK cases are credited to
troops In the field. At Fort WashaUc the
, malarial curve extended from April to July ,
wlill * at Fort Nobrara
, although manifest in
March , the Intensity was suddenly reached
, In September. The post burgeon at Fort
Washaklo attributes the proJuctlon of
malaria at that post to the
- neighborhood of swamps In the north ,
, and to the cleansing of the Irrigating ditches
In the spring. The early seasonal appear
, ance of this disease does not seem to accord
with these conditions , and It Is probable that
If the greatest maluiial Intensity cone-
spends with regularity to the period of melt
ing snow and river freshet , an explanation
may be found In the tliInking water at that
time. The medical history of Camp Brown
the original post , 1874-5 , shoivs the same
malarial activity , but the season and circum
stances are not mentioned. The post Bur
geon at Fort Nlobiara assigns as a probable
explanation of the unusual malarial iccord ol
his post , that the majority of those attacked
were recruits of short service from Jefferson
; barracks. Mo. The almost entire eiemp-
tlon of the civil population of the post re
lieves the water supply fiom suspicion ; and
as this Is constant from a protected sprlnp
and uncontamlnated water bearing area
there can bo no doubt as to Immunity from
that source Further Investigation will be
made at those posts In order to determine
If possible the offending conditions , for miti
gation or lemovel. Malaria Is a constant
factor at Fort Omaha , but In late years tc
a greatly decreased extent The water l'i
use Is that of this city and the toll condi
tions , except as to local pollution by cess
pits , are good. No dangerous epidemic !
appeared at any of the posts.
DEFECT IN ARMS.
The chief ordnance officer rays that Ii
his last annual report he had discoverer
defects in the new army Colts revolver
chief of 'which Is the fact that the cylinder !
of these weapons eject to the left am
necessitate the changing of the reins of c
cavalryman from the left to the right ham
In order to reload. Ho lecoininends thai
the cylinder be changed to eject lo UK
right , and advocates the use of tho.38-call
bro as being of greater accuracy
and the ammunition taking u [
less space This ofllcer sa > s : "The new
United States magazine rifle , cillher .30
model 1B92 , has been on exhibition in my
ofllco and at Fort Omaha foi
about two months nnd has been ex-
amlned by many officers und civilians
There has been no opportunity to try It ni
tlu range , as I hare no ammunition for It
but Its general appearance and action ha :
found much favor. One objection that I :
frequently made to the gun IB that the post
tlon of "carry arms" with It Is very uncomfortable -
comfortable The bolt handle docs ma
terlnlly Interfere with the grasp at UK
small of the stock. The remedy , however
Is plain ; the army must abandon the "carry *
altogether. It Is iilao quite , probable thai
the "right shoulder" position should bf
changed. Certainly no sportsman e\ei
carried his gun while hunting as prescribed
In tactics for "right shoulder arms " Th (
tactics must suit the rlilc. and they bccomi
obsolete as soon as an Improved weapor
renders them Inconvenient.

November C. 1S93. with an able and exlmu.i
tlve report by Lieutenant A I ) Jackson o
that regiment , which was concurred In b <
Colonel Blddle , commanding the Ninth cav
st alry I am personally i\ot in favor of fur
ntshlng the saber to the enlisted men of th
cavalry , as I regard It as. practically an ob
solete weapon , but If cavalry officers deslr
It I would make It as efficient und satis
factory as possible I have , therefore , con
curred In Lieutenant Jackson's recommenda
tlons that the shape of Die guard and th
mode of forming the hilt out of the blade I
the English saber be adopted , ur.d also th
wooden lining and wide mouthpiece for th
scabbard.
"The Kalian Intrenching tool , which Is i

undoubtedly be made on the same principle
PACK MUM : HBATS THEM ALL
"Various means have been suggested of cai
rylng ammunition from the train to the me
ch when engaged. Carts and wagons have bee
Cll devised for lht > purpose , but so far none c
th'em have been very satisfactory Since
ea have been In the department I have seen
great deal of the use of pack mules , an
I am of the opinion that no form of transpoi
tatlon from the wagon train to the line c
battle can surpass these animals In elllclencj
A pack mule will carry easily 250 pounds , cst
o er 3,000 rounds of caliber ,30 * " cartridge ;
He can go wherever a man can , and thus tak
advantage of natural shelter from fire. H
could be taken along ravine : , behind ridge
through timber and under cover of building !
and thua keep out of sight of the en em ;
The ammunition could be carrkil In varlou
ways. In boxes like those for the Hotchkl :
mountain gun , In suitably arranged panleri
or In bells , In conversing with Colonel Mei
rlam , the Inventor of the Merrlam pack , o
this subject , ho suggested the use of a pac
saddle with cross trees upon which exit
belts full of cartridges could be hung. Th
teems to me an excellent Idea. I have nun
gestfd the use of belts somewhat longer tha
the ordinary belt , made endless without an
plate or buckle and with thimbles for 100 c
200 rounds. They could be suspended ovi
the shoulder In fighting , and might be calle
battle belts. They thaftld-iof course bo filled
nt the rear , Two of tliesoi pack mules would
probably be sufficient for each company , anil
they would besides ba very useful on the
march , They could bo rased far col lee 1 1 UK
supplies from the country , to gather wood
for the fires , to brlng-troiler to a dry camp
and for a , thousand oth < ripurpoes. "
