TTio nolnblc Aanl luck of Iho Omaha foot- 5 > id changed last night when ho secured the first haul In months that was worth while from C. n. Tower In the shadow of the fence around the Exposition grounds. The en counter -took place ahout 8 o'clock at a point a short distance cast of Twenty-fourth Hired on I'jatt , nnd Tower was robbed ol $95 In cash and a check for $25. Mr. Tower Us a professional nurzc and for Bomo tlmo past has been attending the family of n. A. McClosky , near Twenty-first and Mandcrson streets. Ho has been In Iho habit of carrying considerable money with him and last night had the amount named , together with a check signed by .Mr. Mc Closky In the Inner poBkct of his vest. UIls duties for the day were over nnd ho hail started to return to his lodgings , at 1C09 Douglas street. The nearest course was along the exposition fence to the Twenty- fourth street car line. The route Is un- ULually lonely , being partially fenced In and almost "without street lights or pollco pro tection. Tower liad nearly reached the open highway on Twenty-fourth street when ho caluo to A jog In the fence , where a tall man with a mufllor around his face was In hiding. Tower was utartled by the meeting and sprang back , when lie says the man pressed upon him and struck him on the head. The two men. grappled , but the highwayman provcJ stronger and with a warning to keep nllcnt hast'.ly ' went through'Tower's pockets. 'Ho ' had no difficulty In discovering the wal let In the Inner pocket and extracting the money he ran along the board walk. The latter circumstance afforded almost this only description Tower was able to glvo of his assailant. Ho says the foot falls fell sharply , show Ing that the man wore no over shoes. Further than that he was too dis mayed to observe. Ho was not sure whether the highwayman was white or black , but Is of the opinion that ho was tall. No revolver was In sight and very few words were spoken. The detectives .believe that the seclusion of the meeting place Indicated1 a knowledge on the robber's part of Tower's habits of going from work and of carrying a considerable amount of money , but they have almost no clew to work upon. The case of a determined young liouoe- breakcr named Clnrcnco Amsbury was twice brought to tlio attention of the police last night. About 8 o'olock ho was obnervcd loit ering near afruit stand at Sixteenth and Capitol nvcniio In company with another boy. Officer Ilontfrow approached tho"pair - softly and saw that they bad broken open the locks of several fruit boxes. The boys ran away nt full flpocd , when " ' .they saw they were dis covered , and w'aa'onfy after a lively chase that the1 officer -overtook young Atr.sbury. IIo was taken lo the police station and sev eral of the locks were found upon his pcr- eon. They had Been pried from the boxes and the fruit and nuts were ready to be sampled. Amsbury appeared to bo a manly nnd frank llttlo fellow , and. after questioning litm the chief of pollco decided to let him go home lor the night. Within half an hour of toward It was reported thai Officer Bebeck jtad captured a small elzed burglar In the fe/ul store of W. P. Shackolford , 1510 CSilf- ' fornla. street. It proved to be- young Ams bury , who had made prompt use of his lib erty. The window of the- office had been ibrokcn open and the boy -had crawled through the lever of a scale. He had lighted itho gas andi was making an examination ot thodeslc , , which contained 1C cents In pcn- mlos. The patrolman noticed the light and looking In the window saw the boy at Ills t work. Ho called to hint to come out , when the boy was ECcm to throw something In the drawer and turn out the gas. Tho. only natural entrance was a. light door secured with a padlock , whIch the officer wrenched open and the young burglar was b'rougTit out. Ho was charged with Incorrlglblllty. P. iraterrt arrived In Omaha yesterday afternoon with $20 , which ho shortly afterWard - Ward parted with. n l\o \ believes , to three women named Klla Roland , Mlnnlo Talton undi Mabel Whltcomb. The occurrence took place on Twelfth street , where Habern was Jnvltod la to an Informal reception. He was unable to decide which woman got the I anoney , nnd caused the arrest of all throe on the charge of larceny from the person. P. Evans was arrested last night on EUB- plclon of having fAlltxl to return some , per sonal property which was recently borrowed from John Hamilton at 1701 Dodge street. 31:11)11 Htm had an acquaintance answering Evann' description who was known as Hotli , nnd the latter wishing to make a good ap- ipcaranco at a social affair obtained tiho loan ( Of Hamilton's ovcrccat and gold ring. Ham. llton says his acquaintance lias been care less In returning the property , and as a. re- cult thait ho finds It Impossible to go about suitably attired.

Duhrlng , euporlntcndcn of the Episcopal city mission work of Phlla delphla and general superintendent of the Episcopal Sunday School Institute of the United States , arrived yesterday morning on Invitation of Bishop \VorthIngton to visit this city and other points In the diocese. Rev. Duhrlng Is on a tour of the country In the Interests of Sunday school mtsMonar : work generally and for the particular pur pose of urging the Episcopal Sunday schools of the country to nmko a largo donation to the foreign and domestic mission funds dur Ing the coming Icnten season. It Is the practice In the schools of this denomination to take up collections for thU purpose every Lent. Last > ear $63,000 was secured In this way and In 189C , $70,000 was collected. The Sunday School Institute , however , desires thin year to reach the $100,000 mark as a memorial to Rev. William Langtord , late secretary of the hoard of missions who diet suddenly lost summer. Superintendent Duhrlng , however. Is ftleo engaged In general Sunday school missionary work , which Is not entirely coafiacd by de nominational hounds. Naturally he Is en deavoring to Increase the scope of the Epis copal Sunday schools , but this Is only par of a general scheme to spread Sunday schoo work without regard to denomlnatico. A number of different denominations , Including the Episcopal , have set to work to Increase their Sunday ( schools 50 per cent by 1900 ant Rev. Duhrlng Is laboring along these Itaca , EXTENT OF THE WORK. In this connection Rev. Duhrlng stated that there are at present 2,700,000 teachers engaged In Sunday school work In the world. The number of pupl's In the schools Is 27- 500,000 , which are divided among the various countries as follows : United States and Can ada , 13,000,000 ; England and Wales , 7,700,000 ; Scofand , 1,100,000 ; Ireland , 400,000 ; Germany , SOO.OOO ; Sweden and Norway , 500,000 ; other European states , GOO.OOO ; Australia , 1,300,000 ; West Indies , 200,000 ; South America , 250- 000 ; Islands of the sea , 400,000 ; Asia , 800,000 ; Africa. 400,000. In the opinion of Rev. Duhrlng there IS a very Lrlght prospect ahead for the Episcopal Sunday school In this country. The achooto now number 5,000. The number of teachers Is some G4.000 and there are over 500,000 pu pils. During the last year the number of [ uiplls has Increased 15,000 and 2,500 more teachers have boon engaged. Rev. Duhrlng says that the teachers are becoming more capable ; substantial and commodious ochool iulldlngs are bciag built and the work of the Sunday schools Is advancing In every way. System Is also being Introduced gradually into Sunday school work. During the last twenty years , thirty-five Sunday School In stitutes have been established. The parent of them all Is' the Pennsylvania Institute , which las Just celebrated Its twenty-eighth innlversary. The work is stl'.I behind thai n England , where there are now about 400 institutes. In this connection It will be of ntcrcst to many Omahcas to know that Dlshop Worthlngton was one of the original 'sunders of the Sunday School Institute of the United States , which Rev. Duhrlng is representing. At the tlmo the bishop was a rector In Detroit. Tonight Rev. Duhrlng will address Sunday school workers of the city at the Trinity par ish house. The meeting will not bo confined to those of the Episcopal faith. Invitations are now being sent out to teachers In other denominations to bo present. Inasmuch as the seating capacity of the parish house Is lim ited , however , only Sunday school workcro are expected to ho present. HETUUXS TO UIII213T OLI FHIKXDS. Hov. Slierrlll .Will Proncli In Hln OIil 1'nliilt .V.-vt S n ml ii y. An Interesting service will he Tield next Sunday at the First Congregational church , when Rov. A. F. Shcrrlll of Galesburg , 111. , vlli preachfcboth morning and evening. Spe cial provisions will bomade 'to accommodate ; a large audience , as his old friends are anxious for an opportunity to welcome ( him on thin visit to a city which accounted him ono of Its prominent citizens for a period of nineteen years. Almost thirty years ago Rev. Alvln F. Shcrrlll accepted the call of the First Con gregational church In this city and became Its pastor. Then the Congregatlonallsts wor shiped In the only exclusive church edi.lco of which Omaha could boast. It was the little frame building with a pretentious steeple In front. For years It stood on Six teenth street , Just across the alley from where the Young iMen's Christian associa tion building stands today. 'Many ' of Omaha's pioneer cltbens worshiped there. Along iln the early ' 70s the city bought this building and erected its first city hall oa the site , using the walls of the old church for part of the construction. The Congregationallsts , steadily growing In numbers and' ' Importance with the growth of the west and the Gate City , 'built a new church on the northeast corner of Nineteenth and Chicago streets. As a pioneer organization It took the lead in all western missionary work In Its denomi nation , and through Its efforts and enter prise any number of other church buildings were erected and organizations 'perfected. ' In 1888. under the leadership of Rev. Sher- rlll , and after having established nine other congregations In Omaha , the 'First ' church erected Its present beautiful and -costly house of worship on Davenport street. Before the members occupied the temple Rov. Sherrlll resigned the pastorate. The church unani mously refused to accept the resignation , but finally did accept It when he determined that It must .bo so. Ho felt that ho had served his tlmo hero and , with the growth and de velopment of the city , that now hands could better carry on the work ho had so effectively 'Inaugurated. ' The recent history of the church Is more familiar. Rev. Duryea succeeded Rev. Sher rlll and served -through the days of financial distress. Two years ago Rev. 'Frank ' A. War- field was called to the church upon the sick ness and resignation of Rev. Duryea , and ho Is the prescnl cfllclcnt head of the organiza tion. tion.Tho The churcJj has recently paid pvcry cent of Its floating Indebtedness , has reduced Its mortgage 'Indebtedness ' from $30,000 to $20- 000. while Its property Is valued at over $100,000. Sunday will be 1ho first tlmo Rov. Slierrlll has ever preached In the new church. The people who worked with him In tlioso years not BO far back promise to bo present In largo numbers to give evldcnro-of their appreciation of the past and -to bid him god speed , Rev , Warfleld extended the Invitation to Rev. Shcrrlll to make the visit and induced him to accept It. RODS OUT TO WOIIIC I'OH TIIH I.OR1) .

He has re signed his position as private secretary to Mr. Hurt , and has decided to 'travel ' through out the United States promoting the work of < ho many railroad branches of tbo Young Men's Christian association. Mr. McDIll Is well known In Omaha , whore ho lived for a number of years previous to lila removal to St. Paul In the summer of 1890. While hero ho was chief clerk ( o .Qenfral Superintendent Hughes of the Elkhorn - horn railroad , but when Mr. Hurt was trans ferred to Bt. Paul he took McDIll with him ca chief clerk. Later Mr. Burt was trans ferred to Chicago as Itilrd vice president of the Northwestern system , end he again took MoOIll with him. Railroad men here were therefore of the opinion that George McDIll would occupy a responsible politico In the executive department of tbo reorganized Union Pacltic railroad. Mr. McDIll Is highly unlearned here , not only by his many rail road friends , but by majipothcrs who knew him hero. Ho has ftlw rs been active In Christian work , barbie n been especially prominent In the work , ot the Presbyterian church , of the Young1 People's Society of Christian Endeavor nnd ofthe Young Men's Christian association in this city.

Toullnguet , a dramatic soprano , Thomas McQueen tenor and SIgnor Albcrtl , baritone. The sale of seats Insures a very large audience. The maids of honor tof Queen Polarla will occupy boxes at the Scalchl concert tonight. A misapprehension has arisen from an erroneous announcement that the band from Fort Crook would aoslst In the DoWolf Hop per performance Friday night. It Is the Omaha First infantry band which will bo heard on that occasion and not the fort baud. David Belasco and Franklin Fylcs' cele brated American play , "Tho Girl I Left Be- ilnd Sic , " comes to Uoyd's next Sunday aft ernoon and evening. Tho'record made by this piece Is phenomenal. It' abounds In thrilling situations , but has not the remotest re semblance to the lurid melodrama whoso jlrthplaeo Is generally the Bowery. "The Girl I Left lichlnd Me" Is a piece of action. [ t depicts graphically the llfo of the Amer- ean Indian and the American military post ami clashes them strongly.
