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. Ho has not SB yet called

lAn attempt * was inado' Iby 'burglars ' last
night to omtor the residence of R. W. Nash

the family happened 'to ' bo looking from a
window Upstairs about 10 o'clock and was
eurprlscd to > ? co the head -aim shoulders ot

Her. Herman L. 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.

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.

McDIll of ( lie l > nrtliwc tcm
In Hrniitrulliitlo Work ,
Local rallrcad men were ye&ter < ! ay greatly
AiirprUcd to learn that George McDIlI , chcf |
clerk to Horace 0. Burl , presidentelect of
the Union Pacific , had titoadotted railroading
to take up evangelistic work. 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

iTho engagement of Walker Whlteslde nt
Boyd's came to nn end last night with a
repetition , of "Hamlet , " "Tho Merchant of
Venice" toeing presented as a matinee bill.
Mr. Whlteslde's Shylock Is among the bait
things ho does , and shows many points of
rare excellence. Its faults are those of his
other Interpretations , nnd are chleily elo
cutionary. ' Mis ? Wolstan-Mr. Herman , Mr.
Sturgeon and Mr. Salnpolls rendered their
customary acceptable support. A word of
praise moreover ohould be bestowed upon
the charming Jessica of Httlo Miss Walker
and the Xcrlssx of Miss Humphreys.
iMmo. Scalchl , the great and favorite con
tralto , will bo heard''in concert at Uoyd's
.onlght , presenting a miscellaneous program.
Including the fourth act of "II Trovatore"
and the second aet of 'tMartha. " Mmo.
Scalchl will be assisted ; by Mile. 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.
Alt Boyd's ' the first three nights of next
veek Herbert Kelcey and Kfilo Shannon , ac
companied by their own cbmpany , will be
ecn In Madeline Lucetto Ryley's new com
edy , "A Coat of 'Many Colors. " The sale of
scats and boxes begins tills .morning.
Tickets for Nansen's lecture lo bo de-
Ivcrcd In Crolghton theatre Friday after
noon nnd In the First Methodist church In
ho evening , will be placed on sale at
Cuhn's drug store tomc-rrow morning.
