An official order from Mnynr Frank 12.
Moorcs to the pollco wos the Gabriel's
trumpet thnt brought Cart Athcno (rum his
grave at lilKti tocntli and Douglas streets, nt
11 o'clock Wednesday night, and necessi
tated his managers' showing him abovo tha
ground until his self-imposed hypnotic sleep
ends nt tho scheduled hour of 9 o'clock
next Saturday night. Tho mayor Issued
the order becauso of bin apprehension that
something might go aiulss with the mnti
who had been burled alive and tbu city ho
held responsible.
Tho managers of tho exhibition say that
the subject will have to sleep until the tlmu
net for him awakening, as they claim It Is
physically Impossible for them to arouso
him sooner, except by using on electric bat
tery, which they say would bo a dangerous
experiment. Were Atheno to nwako todoy
ho would no doubt find Interesting a tet
ter which has been received from Kansas
City, and in which a woman other thau
tho Mrs. Athcno with him hero declares
herself bis wife.
Knil to Kutilerrniieim Veepis.
Atheno was burled In a grave of tho
ordinary dimensions and almost the ordi
nary depth, lust Monduy night at 0 o'clock.
Tho casket lu which he was placed was
enclosed in a wooden box nnd lighted with
nn electric globe. A tube four Inches
aquaro extended from the glass top of the
casket, Just over his face, to a point threo
feet abovo tho ground, and down this the
people with abnormally developed "scien
tific" yearning or plain curiosity wcro per
mitted by Atheno's brothers and wlfu to
peer at 10 ctnts, tho tenth part of a dollar,
per ncer.
When the mayor's order was lesucd early
Wednesday evening there was consternation
ut tho grave. Tho relatives of the Interred
Insisted that tho man's llfo was endnngored
by his removal and that they needed tho
money. They said that to bring him up
from a temperature of 85 degrees to tho
surface of tho earth, where It was so cold
that the cnshler froze her fingers trying to
make change, whs tho worst thing possible,
and that if he died from the effects they
would sue tho city.
Ilrolhrr Sny llr Still Sleep.
Hut Captain Hays had his orders and In
sisted that tho exhuming proceed. At 10
o'clock an undertaker's car arrived and
with It a gravo digger, who would accom
plish the resurrection for $2, coin of the
realm. At 10:15 tho first shovelful was
turned by two colored men, who later guvo
way to tho undertaker assistant, and at
10:55 the coffin was lifted from the holo. Utb
Athcno, brother of tho subject, examined
him and reported tho pulse at 54 nnd that
the condition was In all ways satisfactory.
Tho coffin was placed on a cot In the tent
a few feet from tho grave, wheru It was to
remain until a hall could bo secured.
Tho scenes at the gravo were not these
usually Incident to cemetery seances, Tim
chief concern of the half hundred spectators
who shivered In the cold seemed to ho
their own comfort rather than nny possible
distress of the alleged sluniberor In tho
plno box. Only a few colored peoplo In thu
rear of the group betrayed any symptoms of
that quakey feeling. The managers of tho
show solaced themselves with the cxprostud
belief that there "would ho two or three
columns about It In the morning papers."
Mm. Atheno Much In Kvlilcncc.
Hefore tho digging began Mra. Atheno
spent much tlmo adjusting tho blanket over
tho peep tube and explaining the depth and
enduring quality of hor affection fbr the
husband under her foet. After the digging
began sho turned to tho financial end of
tho affair and "Jake," the Juvenile of the
aggregation, wbb admonished to "get hU
money" and "tend to his business."
Another brother stood at the grave head
to Inform all listeners that Omaha wao

that ho mado $1,000 out of the exhibition

At the weekly prayer meeting nt St.
Mary's Avenue Congregational church
I Wednosday night the resignation of tho
pastor, nr. s. u. sergeant, was tenuereil
and nccepted, to take effect March 1, 1002.
Accompanying tho resignation was a let

bers present. Ho reviewed the work done
by the church before and since his ministry.
During the lost two and a half years, while
tho church was under his charge, more
people had united with tho church thau
with any other In this part of tho country.
"While the call for me to take chnrgo
of tho church was unanimous," said the
pastor, "I knew thero were numbers who
desired some oilo else. The Beed of dis
cord had been sown, and somo tlmo ago I
made up my mind to resign, 1 trust the
two elements In tho church will unite and
much good may be accomplished."
Dr. Sargeant has several calls from other
churches and offered his reslguation at
this time In order to bo free to decide upon
and accept nuo of them, and also to leave
tho church 'frco to choose a pastor.
At tho conclusion of the meeting n com
mittee was nppolnted to draft suitable reso
lutions to bo presented to Dr. Sargeant,
Dr, Snrgeont snld last night that ho had
not fully decided where he would lorato.
"I have about concluded to accept the call
to Wichita, They have nn elegant church
thero and have made me a flattering offer."
The notion of the church Wednesday night
will bo rntlflcd by n meeting of the church
council io be held soon.

Shortly before I o'clock Mr. Miller rushed
Into Judge Vlnsonhaler's olllce nnd applied

While tho e'erk was preparing the llcenso

Vlnsonhaler to accompany him to the nto

Judge Vlnsonhaler was gomo nnd assured
tho excited groom-tn-be that he could tie
the knot speedily enough to permit tho

without doluy. When tho trnlu arrived

pretty picture.
Meantime, the bridal party, consisting of
James E. Dewnr, W. L. Croxton, It. W.

trainmen were unloading baggage and this
bolstered up his hope.
"It occurred to us that It would bo n

explained In talking of his marriage. "I
could only come this far west to meet my

"This Is the tlmo of year when nllachnr

"and it 1b sometimes a question to deter

Child Saving Institute closed Its fiscal year
on October 31 and now finds Itself without

not fiend out paid agents, either on salary
or commission, to solicit subscriptions and

thoso In charge do whatever is done In this

"It Is earnestly hoped that all who can
make u subscription or donation to the

for the coming year, with tho Increased

A special meeting of the city council was
held last evening for the purpose of con
sidering tho ordinance regarding the rules
And regulations adopted by the Hoard of
Health. Mayor Kelly occupied the chair
and all members with tho exception of
Martin nnd Miller were present. Clerk
Shrlglcy read tho ordinance for the first
time nnd it wns referred to the Judiciary
committee. Another meeting of the council
will be held nt noon todny to receive tho
report of the Judiciary committee and pass
the ordinance.
The ordinance, which is numbered 1001,
Is decidedly lengthy, as City Attorney Lam
bert took particular pains tu Include the
salient points of the suggestions made by
members of the board. Ono of the first
sections pertains to tho removal of garbage.
This must be done upon an order from nn
authorized agent of the Hoard of Health and
u penalty Is provided for a violation ot such
orders.
Strict quarantine regulations must be
maintained In all cases and there Is also a
penalty provided for lnfrnctlons of this
rule,
It will he further ordered by tho board
that persons dying from any contagious dis
ease shall ho thoroughly disinfected before
being placed In a casket. More than thb(
only physicians, spiritual advisers, coroners
and undertakers will be permitted to at
tend such funerals. Then there must be a
thorough disinfection ot tho clothing ot at
tendants after the Interment.
Another section provides thnt the hoard
may require the removal of nny person In
fected to n hospital or pesthousc.
A lino ot not more than $100 may bo Im
posed for any violation of auy of thu sec
tions of the ordinance. All ordinances here
tofore passed In conflict with this nrc re
pealed. Tho new ordlnnnco has been druwn
with n view to complying with all of the
laws of Nebraska and tho rules of the
State Hoard of Health.
Want n Penthouse.
In view of tho fact that sixty cases of
smallpox now exist in tho city the mem
bers of the locnl Hoard ot Health have com
menced negotiations with tho county com
missioners for the construction of a pest
house In South Omnha. Pending the comple
tion of these arrangements tho city will
send some of its cases to the county pest-
house.
Yesterday afternoon Colonel Wntklns nnd
President Adklns of the Hoard of Health
looked over several sites for n pesthouso.
It Is understood that n location was ngrccd
upon, but the details wilt not be made pub
lic until after the county. commissioners
have formnlly token action."' It Is under
stood that n galvanized Iron house Is to be
erected In an Isolated part of the city. As
soon ns this Is done the city will provldo
suitable nurses for the patients nnd guards
to see that tho house Is not destroyed. It
will bo remembered that n year ogo tho
city purchased n building nnd located It In
tho Fourth ward. It was destroyed by flro
ono night by n mob of indignant citizens
nnd tho city was forcpd tp expend quite a
sum of money In mnlutatrlng quarantine
regulations about private' houses where
smallpox existed. With the. complete Isola
tion of tho proposed pesthouso It Is thought
thoro will bo no troublo this year nnd that
the city will ho nble to care for cases of
contagious disease in much better shape
than ever beforo.

The Investigation of tho grnnd Jury Into
tho wurklngs ot tho Hoard of Education
Is causing something of n flurry in educa
tional circles. It Is reported that Dr. H.
K. Wolfe told tho Jury that he was offered
another contract as superintendent provid
ing he would supply certain members a

That there is a fight on between the mem

hand, thu Hulln followers nro endeavoring
to send witnesses to tho grand Jury who
will tell of transactions pushed through
by the trio in question.
"Taken all together tho fight now on,"
said a member of tho board last night,
"will result In n lack of harmony between
tho present members of tho board and tho
chances aie that It will result In tho elec
tion of n republican majority next spring."
Certain members of tbo grand Jury havo

which would tend to show that-tho mem

Charles C. I'armolce, vice president ot

proposition to bo prcsonted to tho city
council. After quoting rates to bo chnrgod
for residences and business bouses Mr.
I'armeloe goes on to say, that his company
will pay nn annuity of $150 for two yenrs,
$300 per year for tho following threo yenrs
and $500 n year for the next five years.
Tho life of tho franchise ordinance Is to
bo ten years.
Continuing, the proposition says: "Or we
will pay the city $1,000 In cash for an or
dinance regulating ub In tho uso of two
wires to bo placed on tho Postal Telegrnph
Cablo compnny's poles, with tho right to
set poles If tho telegraph company rofusos

of election to tho telephone company for

upon the long-distance lines shall bo $50
a year for tho ton years, nil ot which we
proffer to pay In advance"
As thero Is a general franchlso ordlnanco
now before tho council It Is not probable
that any action will bo tnken upon tho
proposition of Mr. Parmoloo for somo time
to come. Tho goneral ordlnanco now under

no radical change will bo made In this

SWITCHES THE CONTRACT
liiiillcriuiN llrror Chiinpn ii Tcinprnt In

City llnll.
Through n ludicrous mistake In which
both City Attorney Conucll and City En
gineer Hosewater had a share, it has Just
developed that in connection with tho
lutest obstacles that havo arisen to block
tho consummation of the Union Pacific
contract with the city a mountain has
been mode of a holehlll. A few days ago
Mr. Hosewater discovered somo flagrant do
fects In tho contract, which would have
been most detrimental to the city's end of
tho benefit had they gone through, Yes
terday It was discovered that Mr. Hose
water had hold of tho wrong contract, and
so tho formidable barriers rolled away.
Tho mistakes which Mr. Hoscwsttcr dis
covered at so late a dato wero contnlned
In an old form of the contract, ono ot
tho first drawn up, nnd they do not ap
pear In tbu amended nnd altered contract
as It now stands. The error ot substitu
tion caused n great deal of worry to city
officials Interested In the matter for nwhllo
ond also delayed progress for a time.
When Mr. Council finished reviewing the
contract last Thursday ho wanted Mr. Hoso-
water to check It over for tho last tlmo.
Copies of the original document, drnwn up
somo time ngo, wero lying on his desk with
the nmcuded and completed one. He solzcd
the wrong contrnct by mistake and sent
It to the city engineer. The latter spent
several hours ou Friday picking out tho
(laws ho found lu the agreement, and was
astounded ot their significance. There were
errors lu titles, quit claims and disclaimers.
Mr. Hosewater at once notified Mr. Con
nell of tho new complications, and n meet
ing was nrrnnged with President Hurt.
Then tho mistake wns discovered, and It was
round that there wero comparatively few
things to be adjusted with tho railroad
president. These wore gone over Tuesday,
but Mr. Hurt did not wish to announco n
final decision In some cases without thu
advlco of (Jenernl Solicitor Kelly, who Is
still absent from the city. Mr. Kelly will
return Friday, and nndther conference will
bo held ut onco. Mr. Council thinks that
this will be tho last, and thnt next week
will see tho introduction in council meet
ing of the contract, ordinance and deed.

THE OUTLOOK
Vot a woman's happiness In the married
state depends less, as a rule, upon the
man she is to marry than upon her own
health. Thu woman who enters upon
marriage, stifferitiB from womanly weak
ness, is "heaping up trouble against the
day of trouble."
Weak woman are made strong and
sick women are mnde well by the use of
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is
the one reliable regulntor. It dries en
feebling drains, heals inflammation nnd
ulceration and cures femnlc weakness.
It nourishes the nerves and invigorates
the entire womanly organism. It makes
the baby'9 advent practically painless,
nnd gives strength to nursing mothers.

Rheumatism
VyJLllwOCl VJ.1 a hammer, you rub on some
soothing, healing remedy, wrap it up and let Nature do
the rest. That's just exactly what you ought to do for
Rheumatism. There is no more sense in swallowing
medicines for Rheumatism than there is in swallow-t
ing medicines for a bruised thumb. Rub your Rheu
matism with Omega Oil every night and morning.
Nature will do the rest, and between Omega Oil and
Nature you will be- cured. Keep those strong medi
cines out of your stomach.
