A little episode in police court yester day gave the spectators a glimpse at one ot the thousand unfortunate chapters with which domestic life among the poor is filled.

The man ii in the last stages of consumption and unable to work while his wife supports the family by washing. The husband bore a bloody scratch , as the mark of a recent scrimmage with his wife , and the complainants stated that the couple have small children , who are terrified at these unnatural evi dences of ill feeling. Both parties were Americans , and apparently of fair intelli gence , and were united in a determination to prove themselves the most peaceable people in the world.

Delivered Last Sunday. A thrill of horror passed over the civilized world when it was known on Monday last that the Emperor of Russia had been assassinated ; a few weeks would bring ua to the anniver sary of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln , who wo had fondly believed had not an enemy in the world. In the latter cs.no as in the former , the assassin was a roan of educationabove , the average of the people in mental ability ; not ono of the ignoranl and uncultured , but ono who could judge of causes'and their .effects , who knew what he was doing and did it with eyes wide open and with a clear knowl edge of the consequences. Wo have been in the habit of making some ex- cnses for Booth , and of believing that his mind was unsound , and yet the Fympathy "with which ho met from the adherents of the lost cause , must convince us that others etood ready to da that dreadful deed had ho failed ; we can understand eorno- thing of what a conquered people f jol , and to what extremities they are will ing to proceed is eecuro their inde pendence from what rightly or wrong ly they consider a tyranny , and can to some slight extent condone the crime , but just now no ono hua many excuses to make for Rousaakoff , the assassin of the E11 per a r Alexander , nor can wo believe him to ba of un sound mind , or to hare had any per sonal enmity against the czar , for this is the sixth attempt which has been made to kill the emperor , and in the present instance it is evident that the assassination had been carefally planned and that had RoussakoH failed others were at hand to complete the murder. Nor was it unexpected. The nihilists of Russia , aided by the communists in various parts of the world , had de termined to destroy nnt only the em- pc-ror buC the government of Rnesia , and it is probable that the simc fate awalte" Alexander III , and other crowned heads in Europe have been threatened. A larger num ber of persons than we' are aware have determined to change the pres ent civilization of the world. In some countries they are known as commun ists ; in others as cocialfsts ; in yet others as red republicans or social democrats ; in others still as land leaguers , and in Russia , as nihilists. Not only are they found in autocratic Russia and imperial Germany , bat in constitutional Great Britain , in re publican France and even in demo cratic America. Their purpose , revo lution , is the same everywhere , though the means proposed differ. The ni hilists would abolish all government , destroy the existing and on the rnlna let a new condition of society establish Itself ; the communists would change society into a commune ; the land leaguers would secure landed property for the tenants , and divide up the ; reat cstatesamong the cultivators ; the toclalists would establish n paternal government which should educate , bo children , aud provide work ' ' . - a1 ! he people. The agitators in America would remove the growing inequality .between the poor and the rich , re strict the power of corporations , and destroy the over increasing monopo lies. While the nihilists are simply agents of destruction , isomo if the al'ied movements are agents of con struction and have elaborated new forma of society , which on paper approach preach very near to paradise. Nor are the members of theae societies composed of the ignorant , uneducated aud criminal ; Indeed they are siogu- larlyj free from vie ? , they are well educated ; they hate recruits from all clasics of society , the working people are in the majority , but there are clergymen , professional men , students- clerks , officers , and very many ladies , frequently of high birth , not only in sympathy , but ready to undertake oven crimes * when ordered by the leaders. Alexander the II. was no tyrant ; indeed he was the best czar the em pire had ever potsocscd ; ho had eman cipated the serfs , developed the in ternal resources of the country , edu cated the people , unmuzzled the proaa indeed , he was a progressive man , who seemed to have at heart the good of his people ; still for years those people had been trying to kill him' . For fiftcttn years the assassin has dogged his footsteps , and yet ho was in general loved by his subjects. It was not Alexander the man , but Alexander the autocrat of all the Russlas , at whom the stroke was aimed. Not the manful the system , was to be desttoycd. Among the Nihilists ere to be found men and women cf all grades of society , united only by their hatred of the syatem under which they are compelled to live. Were the heid of the government an angel , the government would ba hope lessly corrupt , and every effort at re form would only remit in doep.r deg radation. Far be it from me to make any apology for the Nihilists , y t the Viry name and the avowed purpose of this powerful organization and mate rial of which it Is composed reveal a frightful state of society , which every traveler in Russia confirm * . When a body of people by no means criminal or ignorant form as their working plan limply the destruction of what is , that which is must indeed be terrible. And when the only means wbich they can Invent to secure this end ia nsseassiua- tlon.they must bo" well nigh desperate. | Of course any fair-minded observer must admit that the Emperor Alexan der was not responsible for the evils under which Russia groans ; indeed his Ule proves that he was constantly try ing to remedy those evils. His fate has been to bo an autocrat. Ho is the government , he is society , j and the only way to destroy the gov- 1 ermnent , to revolutionize society , the t nihilists arranged so as to kill him. We can aee , looking on from a distance - t tance , that this is not the right meth od , even were it not too terrible to be c tolerated. The nihilists propose to v isaminato one after another of the t intocrats until no one will dare take t he position , and then tney hopa to IBO something better replace the old. desperate a remedy indicates amost I fcspotate disease. iHowover terrible he disease the civilized world can lot and should not tolonto the rem- idy. But while wo denounce the as- iasslns and protest against the repetl- ion of the crime , and while the civil- zsd world will and should uphold Al- jxaader the III in the most stringent noisures to prevent anyrepetition of o atrocious a deed ; jet shall wo re- nembcr the disease and demand hat it be cured. Bat ales , ho diseasa la not confined toRussiaand lermany ; it affects Great Britain and America ; every where modern civilszi- ion is suffering under the same com- ualnt , which has reached BO aggra vated a form In Russia. Everywhere there an increasing number of per- ons in all ranks of society , who pro test against society and governments now organisad , and not only dsr nand but propose to compel a change. > . . . ' Vnm3fl.li. O A'n ? not - peed flatter ourselves that we are rafo , that society in the United States is healthy. The strikes of a few yeara ego were the premonitory fever flush which tell a of social dis turbance. Wa ta k about the siclr man of Tur key ; we see on the Bosphorua a civil ization destroyed , a nation sinking in * to barbarism , and calmly reason about dividing the possessions of the invalid among more stalwart pocple ; and yet the Eame disease is destroying society everywhere. Every nation is sick , though not BO far gone as Turkey. Even the yonn ; ? republic is sailtten. Here as in Europe are a great number of people organized under various names international , communist and socialist ; who are BB bitter in their denunciation of America as their coworkers - workers acrozs the water m their de nunciation of European society. It would * eem as though we were nearing - ing the end of the cycle. Certain it h that we are rearing in oar very mlds ; the eavagcs who may destroy ua. Not from -incursion of outside bar barians need the governments of Eu rope and America fear an overthrow ; but from the umising of savages in our midst. The Nihilists are angels of light compared with the criminal classes so rapidly increasing in our largo cities. It would sometimes seem that nature never intended that largo cities should exist ; certainly wliero- ever wo find them , in whatever lati tude , inhabited by whatever nation , we find society diseased , wo find the immoial and criminal increasing more rapidly than the moral and virtuous. We fiud it necessary to maintain an army of policemen in order that we may live at all. Beautiful buildings increase , art exhibitions and grand libraries are opened , places of amu o- ment multiply , palaces are erected ; and our cities are filled with well- drcsed people , elegant carriages roll through miles of superb buildings marvels of architectural elegance and at the same time the ragged increase , tenement houses and hovels are planted under the shadow of the pal ace ; prisons and court houses , asylums and hospitals and pnlico stations , become even more numerous. We sit on the safety valve of a boiler heated above the safety point , and sooner or later tha explosion cornea which will blow na to atoms and sll civilization will bo gone. No NewZsalanderns Macaulay suggested will visit the ruins of London ; except the savage , like or lower than the Now Zealauder , whom London has created. The American Indian will not prowl over the few remains of our civiliza tion as the Arab among the crumbling temples and palaces of Egypt , but the savage A merican born and reared In onr great cities , will wonder at the ruin which his fathers made ; whom those very cities prepared for their dreadful wcrk. A\hucdred \ years ago when there wore no large cities , when the people lived on farms or in small towns , there was but little crime or poverty , contentment and honesty pre vailed , just as those towns increased in slza , and people from the country and from Europe crowded into them ; while wealth increased , just In the same proportion poverty and crime increased. While the few at one end of the line bscimo cultured beyond any culture since Grecian civilization tstouished the world , at the other end many sank to a depth of degradation and barbariim not witnessed for centuries. The petrolenso of Paris is reared -with other monstrosities of Paris. The times are troublous , and the agitation in cue cr two parts of the world , whose progress or retrogress 'ho dally papars report , are only the visible signs of as tremendous aa in ternal agitation as preceded the French revolution. In the human body appear various diseases , which we are HOW told are tha efforts of na ture to restore the system to its nat ural condition , to throw off foreign ( mHttera which are poisoning the blood. Society is tubject to the same laws as the human body and these outbreaks which occur from time to time are due to nature's efforts to restore'scciety to its natural condition. Frequently with the body the Vis Mcdicatrix nature fails , and paralysis , deformity or death succeed ; history furnishes many examples of a simillar catastrophe In society , Turkey instances paralysis , Russia deformity , the ancient Roman empire death. Modern civilization is poisoned , and nature is trying to throw off the evil ; whether she succeeds or not depends upon whether the patient will assist or retard the operations , just as a sick man's recovery depends on whether he helps or retards the cura tive methods set in action by the vital force. I think you will all admit that so ciety in all pnrts of the civilized world is ill. The outbreaks occurring so fre quently , the organized effort to effect a change , the increasing and dangerous dsscontont , the growing indifference to religion , the rapid increase of dangerous and criminal cla3aeaall inform us aa plain ly aa words could speak that modern society is dangerously ill. But scant time -remains to explain the cauao of the illness and to indicate the remedy. I hive many times called attention to both. To ba brief , the rauee ia that the laborer does not re- CMVO the fruits of his labor. All wealth now in the world , or which will over come into it is that produced by labor of man , who compels the earth by agriculture and mining to giva up its riches , and increases the value of the raw material by manufacture ; in no other way is the wealth of the world increased by a cent. Now ol this wealth which they have produced the laboring class receives even a a smaller amount ; those who want to work can frequently get no work to do , and yet the wealth Is cot lost. Never were there so many colossal for- tunesnever in the history of modern civilization eiucs feudal timea have so many been able to live inluxury with out doing anythingnor did the wealth of the world increase so rapfdly. You may say the inequality Is natural , you may say it is due to the laziness or ig norance of the poor , yon may point to the increased number and elegance cf churchesschool homes , art galleries , theatres and hotels , and tell me.tho treelth Is used for a good purpose ; you may call attention to railroads bailt and building , manufacturing es tablishments erected and under way ; and tell mo that- capitalists are helping the people ; I will not deny what you say , but I will "point yon to the periods of business stagnation when men who want to work canget { no work ; I will take yon to the houses which our ar- tizana are compelled to call homes , I will show yon the saloons where they 01 seek to forget their wretchedness , 01dc will enumerate the increasing , dcbt rapidly Increasing , sumi of money spent to restrain crime and to help bt paupers ; I will then call your attention of again to the prevailing discontent , and will show you as one cause of whatjto- ' day is convulsing Ireland and sooner OT later will convulse every civilized tego nation ; the exclusion of the masses go From the land which nature provides , to jnst aa she does air t > nd water , From topi that land all wealth comes our , just as from the i > 5r comes life ; to It even one st ; ; The will should have free access ; but ha inder modern civilization no one can ye each that land , which is the true phi- ha osophers stone without paying for the fit irivilege , almost ai ranch as he can am , and that payment made to men an rho have no more right to It than he las. Property in land is at the bot- pa om of the disease , which threatens fai he life of modern society , aggravated ' " y the eejfishness of the few fortunate a" mough jLo bp rich , who , inis ; stead of inviting those who have produced fortham the weslth they so Javlsblyspendto co operate with them its enjoyment as "hay wcreconapalled in to co-operate in its production , use it to increasa - their already swollen fortunes. The cure naturally suggests itaelf.no property in land , co-operative between - tween capital and labor which ore really allies and must be unless ruin comes ; the adrnlEaipnnnd this includes everything else which lies at the basis of any true society , " is the essence which must animate any society which would live a healthy natural life the admission aud not only the admission but the elevating to the place of ail' active forces the idea that men are all brothers. The chnrch has insisted on compelling men to recognize the Fatherhood of God , men must be thirsts , must accept the theology pre pared for them , and baa claced in a secondary position human brother hood. Jeaua placed fraternity first , theology second. To this order society must return. Religion does , not depend on correct creeds , on gor geous churches , on eloquent preach er ? . Religion depends on a practice of the golden rule * , on according their natural rights to every man , woman and child Religion is ia its moat im portant partj fraternity. Unless cur churches teach aud church members practice this part of religion society will close the churches , silence the preachers and brand church membeia as the real atheists and infidels. ' Fraternity governing sccial life la the only possible help which man can . give to God in Hia attempt to pre serve modern society from ruin ; not but that God ia omnipotent , yet Ho works by law always the same since man first came on the earth ; and under - der that lw , in order that eociety may advance , that nations may con tinue to exist , men must be eo-workera with God ; if they refuse , God lets loose the volcanic fire conceited with- in every nation , brings the nation to judgment , and by ita own self-uene- ratcd evil crime and sensuality , all be gotten of selfishness , it is destroyed. Such has been the history of man from the beginning ; tin only power which can extinguish the volcanic fires , la Fraternal Love ; give this full sway and society shall bo regenerated ; and instead of the destruction now no plainly threatening modern civiliza tion , ahall come a new Hfo which shall boar ua on to a condition which will be a veritable paradise. We shall stand on n now earth , under a now heaven and God shall indeed be all and la all. Boya' aud Youths' HubbsrUscts , at low prices , at H. DOHLE & CO.'S Leading Shoe Store.

Conflicting Opinions Regard ing the Grade Between Fifteenth and Twen tieth Streets. ' The Matter Undergoing In- j j , vestigation by a Special i I Committee. ( ' 1 The feasibility of a change of- the grade oti upper Farnam street has been the subject for some weeks of discussion , and there Has been much difference of opinion between leading citizens. A committee was recently appointed by the common council , consisting of Messrs. H. Pundt , John Baiimer , and Dan Augell , to assess the probable damages that would be caused by a cut of fifteen feet at the highest point of the hill , and a pro portionate cut on the east and westside | side of the hill , and this committed will report at a meeting of the council nest week. There are two conflicting opinions regarding the pro- priMy of this cut , one represented by those who believe that that { .art of the city should be used for residences , and the other by those who believe , that this portion of the street will be . the principal thoroughfare for > farmen ' ' coming in from the country , and that ' the western part of the street will be come an excellent stand for saloons , . and become to the same extent unde- j sirablo for residence property. i The county commissioners have not j yet decided upon the grade upon which they will put the new court house , and are awaiting the report of this com mittee before doing eo. Several par ties who intend to build in that part of the city are also availing this re port before completing arrangements and starting their laborers.

A dispatch which appeared in an Omaha newspaper on Siinday morning created a lively sens ? tion in Omaha police circhs , for it was soon learned that the party rrost prominently mentioned in the article as a profligate and criminal , was in Omaha. The charge waa that ono Dlsbrow , super intendent of a division of the Penn sylvania railroad , and a resident of Erie , Pa. , had seduced a girl of fourteen - teen ye ars , the only daughter of a widow , and had suddenly left for St. Paul , Minn. He was charged with other offences and said to have been so saintly in his practices thnt the Bible was never absent from his desk. The statement 'was so explicit and fnll that Deputy Oily Marshal Ben.Ve3terdahl , who had learned that the man was in the city , took the matter in hand. Ho found that Mr. Dlsbrow claimed to ba on the way to California to meet his wife , and promptly telegraphed the chief of police in Erie that Disbrow was her ? . To his surprise the answer came back that Disbrow was not wanted , and he < rae allowed lo proceed we t on Rnn- day afternoon.
