A Unartctto of Fnlr l > eaylst nnd
Conferring of Modnla nnd Dlplrmaa
by Bisliop Clarkeon.
Tlio commencement exoi'oisus o
Brownell IJnll took place last ovcnin
at Masonic hall and the occasion
ono of unusual interest. The hrv !
w < ib crowded to auffocation with th
friends and relations of the graduate
and students who participated , nnd i
the exercises had been held in Boycl' '
onsrn house it would hnvo boon filled
for many hundreds went away unnbl
to endure the heat ,
At S o'clock prompt the student
of lirownoll Hnll entered the room
nnd took the scats reserved for them
in the center , nnd the programme wu
immediately begun with the choru
from Offenbach , which was finely ex
edited ,
This was followed by an itistru
monnl ( duet by Misses Ware nnd Wng
goner , wicli was well received.
The graduating clacs consisted o
Misocs Ilagar , Ambrose , Wag ono
and Ware , nnd their essnya were a
follows :
'Tho Ilormea of Praxitilos , " Min

"Womanhood ' Mr

tollcct Achieved Most in the Civiliz.i
tion of the World ? " Enthusiasm
Miss Waggoner ; Intellect , Miss Ware
The latter also delivered the vnlo
dictory address , which was vciy fine
indeed.
In general it mny bo said Hint the
cssaya and debates were above the
average of such olForta. Miss
ilagor'u csaay wns well written and
delivered in a very clear , distinct
voice , which mndo it moro enjoyable
than it would otherwise hnvo been.
Mifo Ambrose handled her subject in
i creditable manner , and aho cr atod
in excellent impression on the audi-
! nco. Misses Wntrgonor and Ware
vcro not less deserving , and the
alter spoke with grant self-possession
ind mndo every word heard through-
mt the room.
The jnuaical part of the progrummo
ros fine. The instrumental solo
'Concert Caprice , " Liebling , wns ox-
icutcd in faultless style by Alias Am-
> ref < o. Tha solo "Forever and For-
ivor , " by Miss Liningcr , was the
incst feature of the evening , utiloes
in exception bo made in favor of the
eng given in response to n rapturous
mcoro which was exceedingly pretty ,
iliss Liningor has a rennrkablo voice ,
n fact the finest , richest contralto
ver heard in this city from u young
idy of her modest pretensions. It
, -ould take no connoisseur to toll that
hero is a future of great promise be-
ore her , and it is too small a tribute
o pay her to say that nino-tontha of
ho professionals who visit this city
re not her equal. Miss Liningor in ti
ovoly brunette , with eyes , face and
orm that would carry her through if
icr voice was only mediocre. They
ire not thought of , however , when
iho sings , and last night the nudieneo
Tcro enthusiastic and in these , ns in
) thcr efforts , nho sang to the satisfnc-
.ion of the most exacting critic.
The duet "Cheerfulness "
, , Misses
[ lager and Liningorj was very line
ind mot with deserved apphiUHo.
The instrumental Sextotto , in
vhich Missca M. Melz , L. Motz ,
ipark. Wngfjonor , Ware and Cremor
mrticipatcd was well received , and
ho solo , "Alia Stella Coniidonto , " by
> liss Ambrooo was beautiful.
The trio "Farewell "
, Misses Wil-
on , Ambrose nnd Liningor , was ex
jmsitely nung and was warmly ap-
: ) Iaudcd ,
r It would bonn unpardonable omis
sion not to mention the fact that the
inisic was all rendered under the sup-
jrvision of Mies. A. 0. Tarbcll , who
, o certainly entitled to the greatest
[ > raise for the success of her efforts.
The pianos , a mngnficent Sleinway ,
raud , and Cliickenng , grand , were
furnished by the firm of Mnx Meyer
& Bro.who thus contributed materially -
ially to the musical programme of the
avoning.

for the past five years , and their
Facilities hnvo boon greatly increased
luring the past five years , and their
workmen being the best they have
ivorhad they were able to turn outtho
most perfect work. The medals were
marvels of beauty both in design
uid workmanship , and rolloctnd great
: redit upon the house which fur-
liahod them , and which in fact stands
it the head of the manufacturing
irms of this western country.

The Hight Koverend Bishop Clark-
son , in dismissing the scholars , deliv
ered a very appropriate , though sorno-
what brief address , In the course of
which ho felt sura that they all de
served the prizes and diplomas they
had received and ho also felt sure
they would do honor to them
Ho committed them to the
care of the Almighty who
would ever keep them in the right
pith , The young ladies then chanted
the Nicene creed and Iho Collects very
impressively , nnd the entire audience
sang the Gloria in Excolsis in a vor ;
impressive style. The bishop thet
n'tul the well known bcncdictiot
prayer and the exercises terminated.
Masonic Hnll was never filled by amore
moro fashionable and exacting aud
ience than on this occasion. The
decorations were not numerous , bul
the wreaths .ind triangle which our
mounted the arch nbovo the stapo
were very elaborate and beauti
ful. The tlaral offerings to
the participants in the exer
cises wore limited in number
and unsurpassed in beauty. There
was n wealth of these delicate tokorw
of admiration and esteem that
overpowering almost , and the usher * ,
in charge of Mr. Ilendrix , were al
most paralyzed in their efforts to con
voy the loads of llowcra to the fair
participants in the ovonlng's enter-
lainmont.
CANDY AND SADDLES.
riio Rum Stock In Which a Youthful
Victim Invested Bis Llttlo All.
Another slick confidence game was
ilayod yesterday on a young man
ibout 18 years of age , who came over
0 Omaha from the transfer on the
1 o'clock dummy. While coming
ivor ho mot a decent appearing man ,
vith whom ho struck up an. acquaint
nco , and the latter 1 earning that ho
.esired to find a job , engaged him to
rork for him for $35 per month to
ord cattle for him near Omaha. The
wo walked up the street , and after
oino conversation the stranger said
liat ho would go to a certain grocery
tore and buy sonio candy for his chil-
rcd , but arriving at the store ho dis-
ovored that ho had no change
i his pocket , and asked the young man
or a small amount to pay for the can-
y. The boy pulled out a quarter
nd gave it to him , and in doing no
xhibited quito a largo sum of money ,
, 'hich of course put" the confidence
ian upon the route to size up the
Ho. They came out of the store
nd the man handed his
lired hand the candy to
arry for him. The two then wont
nto the Grand Central saloon where
hey had some conversation , and the
nan said that ho intended to purchase
hroo saddles to bo used in herding
md desired to raako a email payment
ipon them , but had loft his money at
lome nnd requested his now hand to
oan him the necessary amount.
Cho latter gave him all ho had , which
van pnly § 12 or § 15 , and the stranger
iosircd him to wait u minute , nnd
hen ho stopped out to attend to a Tit
le business , and it is presumed ho is
till engaged in the business , as ho haslet
lot returned up to this writing.
The victim of the coufidcnco game
vent round to the grocer , who g.ivo
lim money enough to take him to Pa-
jillion , whcro he Kayo ho has relations
iving , and whore ho could get a job ,
liough , at wages at much less than ho
osircd. °
The presence of the fool killer is
cry much needed , indeed , in this
icinity.

the following ofliciah for Kansas City :

A NECOLOUAUO POOL.
Concornim. ' this the Chicago Tribune
uno of Tuesday says :
It is now settled beyond a doubt
that there will bo no war between the
lines west of the Missouri river A
treaty of peace bolwcen the Union
Pacific , Atchicon , Topeka & Santa Fe ,
ard Chicago , Burlington & Quinoy
has been arranged and will bo perfect
ed at a meeting to bo hold between
the general managers of these roads at
Kansas City to-day. It has not yet
been doGnitly decided whether there
is to bo simply an agreement for the
mnintonancH of uniform rates or a
pool on all business between the Mis-
touri river and Denver. It is most
probable , however , that a pool on
that business will bo made , as such an
arrangement alone would give per
manency to the agreement. The
Denver & Rio Grande , it is under
stood , will become a party of the now
agreement , but the now Denver &
Now Orleans railroad is not to bo re
cognized , and it is quito certain that
a light against this company will bo
made. This much is indicated by the
announcement of the Union Pacific
that in accordance with an agree
ment with the other roads west of the
Missouri river it will accept no tickets
issued by or over that road.
FAST MAIL FAXLUItn.
W. B. Thompson , superintendent
) f United Htatcsrnilwaysorvico , arrived
icro yesterday morning , and during
ho day was in conference with some
if the railroad officials. A few weeks
igo a meeting took place between Mr.
lowe , postmaster general , Mr.
Phompsou and Capt. White , for the
; ovcrnment , and the presidents and
; oueral managers of the railway lines
lonnocting Chicago and Omaha , at
rhich the latter were asked to name a
irico for operating a fast mail train
ervico from this city to Council
Muffs. They promised to consider
ho proposal , and apprise the ppst-
tflico authorities of their docosion.
Dho officers of these lines have noti-
iod the government officials that they
: an not undertake the operation of a
ast mail service between Chicago and
) maha. The reason for declining to
interiain any such proposal is tnat
, ho lines are now working together
mdcr a pooling arrangement. If they
Tore at war , either of the lines
lYould bo glad to establish such aor-
rico , for the advertisement there
vould bo in it. For either line to un
lortako it now would create jealousy
ind disrupt the pool. The arrango-
ncnt is closed , however , it is under-
itopd , for the establishment of a fast
nail train from Now York to Chicago ,
; o make the run in twenty-five hours ,
[ "ho route of the eervico will bo via
, hp Now York Central and Lake Shore
railways. This train will commence
unning some time in July. This ar-
angomont will shorten the service bo-
; ween Now York and Chicago twelve
lours. The refusal of the roads west
.o join in the continuation of the ser
vice deprives Chicago of the expected
Benefit of a quickened' service from

AMERICA'S GREATEST CRANK.
George Franclet Train Hl3 Appearance -
anco und Tomfoolery.
Speaking of cranks , any a a writer in
I'ho Detroit Chnll' , perhaps this is a
; ; oed place to say thnt I atmnbled on
to my old friend , George Francis
rrain , in Madison rquare"tho other
lay. IIo has sat bareheaded in the
park every day for five years and
more now , but ho has moved his scat
from Twenty-Fourth street , where ho
tvtts when I wrote of him two years
igo. Ho still occupies n bench all to
liimsolf. and it is located nt the inter
jection of Broadway and Fifth ave
nue , near the Brunswick , but , as the
newspapers pay but little or no atten
tion to him now , strangers have some
difficulty in finding him. His skin is
/cry dark from exposure to the
ivind and the sun , his hair
is moro white than ever , and
[ fancy that his wonderful eyes
wn growing a little dull and dim. Ho
, vaa surrounded by the uaual number
) f children as I came up , and ho had
nore jumping ropes , playthings and
sandy for them than over. Ho looked
ip from his everlasting book a paper
level as I saluted him with : "Good
norning , Mr. Train. " Placing his
ingcrs quickly to his lips , ho made a
notion as if ho were throwing mo a
das , snd then ho tapped significantly
iis ear. "What ? " I exclaimed , much
.stoniahed. He repeated the gesture.
'You don't mean to toll mo , old
riend , that you are deaf ? " I asked.
Without looking at mo ho drew a card
rom his pocket , and with a blue pen-
til traced thereon , i.i a round , frco
land , the following : "Only talk with
ihildren. Not spoken for one year to
idults. " I wrote on the card my name

V little 10-year old girl , who , with her

tad completed a stanza there was a
