Ho had married the woman because eho had bgnilod him into it. Ho waa a man of irreproachable character , and had livud in this city for years. The woman , vulgarly speaking , waa no good , and in conjunction with two other fonuloa , had lived during hio nb.-onco a lifo not strictly in keeping with matronly dignity. Ho stated that ho had never boon familiar with the prosecuting witness. The cross-examination , conducted by Mr , Burnham , put the cano in an entirely different light. A verbosity was suddenly noticed in demons' statements and ho desired to explain matters. His interests , carefully watched by Col. Smytho , led the lat ter tokeep bobbing to his foot almost constantly in order to raisu sundry objections to the questions propounded - od to his client. The witness had stated that ho know a conspiracy had boon formed against him by his wife fo blackmail him. Ho was asked why ho had takou Smytho and McOullough to the fjirl to > have her statement made in their presence , and ha auswored that it waa on account o ! the schema of his wife to "dorm him , " as ho expressed 't. Ho was asked how ho know there wai any plot against him and ho said ' ; hat hohadhoard hia wife and Edith ilanulng it in the next room. "Why did you have thin woman in your houao ? ' asked Burnham. "I couldn't help it , " answered Clem- no ; "my wife brought her thOru , and I conldn't put her out. " Biro. OlomoLi , who is anything bnt a fiiio looking person , or ono who would bcgullu a man of any force of character , at this assertion from her guardian husband , arose hastily from her eoat boaido General O'Brien , ono of her counsel , and in an excited man ner exclaimed : "I contradict that statement aa a io.

Bv\ List evening HJV. A , F Shcrrill delivered the fir t of a aoties of k-o * turcs to bo given from tlmo to time in Wyman'd lusinesn college upon themes pcrtniuing directly or indi- iotly to the mnltifarioui studies pur sued there. Tim spacious college hail was comfortably filled and quite a numbur of lidicn graced iho audito * rium with thuir presence. After some remarks of an introduc tory uatnro the lecturer described how his first impressions of a commercial college cud itn nature and use were ruadu some fifteen years ago , when living in his quiet native town. A neighbor's son went to Eastman's college at Poughkoopsio and ho could distinctly recall how very much im proved the young man was on his re turn home , not alone in penmanship , which Is smell a desirable * accomplish ment , but also iu general Information and in manners , as well as hav ing a practical knowledge of business and of lifo. This young nan subse quently entered a store , then a largo bank , and , steadily advancing there , the last news ho had about him was that ho was holding the most ; respon sible position in the bank aud receiv ing n largo salary. Such a fact this is worth several mere theories about a thing. Ho thought it was safe io say that the city of Omaha had accepted VVyman commercial college as one of its permanent institutions , not rtith any of that public celebration and noise which la so npb to end in noise , bnt in a quiet , matte ? of fact way it accepts and recognize it us a park of its life and future. Tlioro is a feeling growing tip every woelc , I am assured , that there is a place hsio for such an institution and that thi one has oomo to fill that place , and the present manages with his general scope of ideas , plans , furnishing * and facilities is showing himself fully aqual to the important position ho rocuples and likely to- provide all that this growinc : oity will , in the coming years demand. Ho thought ho deserved to know it , and ho supposed he did know It , and he hoped he would know it more aad more for the next quarter of a century. The lecturer did not know when or where the fiist commercial college arose. There ara several who claim to be the first. At any rate they are comparatively modern institutions which caiuo up to moat the nacd of tha times , aud are one of the illustra tions cf this practical ago. It is no secret that the first ones wuro not perfect in all respects , and a suc cessful business man ot thio-clty told him that aa a young man , when ho was seeking ( or a situation in New York , he took care not to say that he whs u gridaata of a commercial college - logo , In those days there aiay have boon faulta on both sides ; defects in the college aud prejudice oa-tbo part of the public. Bo tnat as it may , this is a thing of the past. The com mercial colleges contkmsd to grow and extend for the raaoon that the idea at the bottom was. good and because there was an end which they fitted io meet and especially because they kept improving so that now , hav ing largely outgrown the defects of in experience , they have largely out grown the popular prejuaica , from which , they oaca a u ( To rod. They now hold their nrciout place of general confidence because they have earned aud decorvod it andare , now to be found in nearly every , or perhaps every important oity of our union. The students need not have any misgivings about their future. Hu wanted to give them confidence. That was ono of the things ho catna down therefor. This city is growing otoad- ily and will continue to do so. In ten or fifteen yearn it will go on to sixty , seventy-five or one hundred thousand people. MOD of cool calcu ( lation any so aud a gro.it bccinees will be done hurt ) . It , has the geography on ita side , also it has nnd will have the ratttonds , and when these two conditions are fulfilled the real iu as certain as mathematics Opportunities , therefore , good and many , are put iu increasing number before them. Ho had livud hero fif- tonn years , and part of his business had been to watch the rust of the pee ple. Ho had never known n young man of fair abilities and good hub ltd who stuck to his business thnt fulled in it , cud ho had hoard others make iho Biimo renmk. The growth of the city , the nyrupathy of the people arp with him and help him on , and with their preparation and their superior opportunities opening before them thsy would not ( nil. They had a ( Uttering future if they would here master the prepara tory work , and form disciplined habltr , and then go out and give thuir mind to business , and strictly obey its laws , suconis would crown their efforts. The wonder of this age is the activ ity and fertility of mind. The brain of America fa largo and fertile , it is keen , and ceaselessly at work. It is very busy , what is there that is not being done and produced , whether a gigantic railway system or beautiful art iu Obrlstmas cards. It Is a great privilcgo to live in this ago. Sach au ago was never known in the past. The demand , therefore , upon the coming generation will bo very grout. Il&pplty excellent opportunities for preparation are being afforded and tho4o who read the signs of the times and uvail themselves in youth of these opportunities and , as David LlvingsUno said , "learn how to in a your hands , " how to raako every ouuca of themtolvos useful and facile , will bo the ones that will hn heard of by aid by. There is no luck now-a-days. Re cently a f cicnd showed the lecturer over hia establishment , a wonderful growth of ton yaars , and said to him , "there is no secret about it , I know how cv..ry inchof it oimo tobehoro just ai it is , I have studied and worked day and night. " The reason many do not make better bucceta is that they do not osrly hnre higher ideas and larger rtrabition. Too many are willing to follow the limited routine of well learned duties , nnd so llvo in and fill a very small epaco in the world , No ono is properly educed < vho studies only along his own line : no one is a well informed man who ia only informed in his special department. DoWittTftlmace B id to r n assembly of young men , if ycu want better positions read your selves into them. Five years ipontln good readiuj , ' would give them in est I mablo capital , The speaker hid taken especial in to-cBt in observing the proscneo of young ladies in this college. Fifteen or twonly years ago their attendance would have baon regarded as very questionable by most and wholly to bo condemned by many as somothiug un fitting to the Mi sex. But th world moves and some cf us try to move with it. Now , nearly all the work which woman do ia open to women , and rightly , nnd what is more , at equal pay , hich ia also right. Hu bellved that iu this respect this city has a very good nnmo. It is far more honorable and becoming for a young woman to employ her time and her God-given faculties in sotno usofnl and remunerative work than to paw largo parlion of her time in reading silly books or gossip , or showy proinonading upon the streets to sopport herself rather than live upon the- hard earned wages of father or brother. Mr. Sherrill concluded his lortnre with a graphic description of the bright possibilities in store for : ho youth of America , and earnestly im pressed upon thorn the importance of forming habits of industry sad perseverance. The lecturer waa lio- toned to witb marked attention frora beginning to end and at the end was greeted with enthusiastic applauao. Miss Julia Hardenboig , of t Lie- city , terminated the exorcises by Riv ing a very boitntiful reading , for which she received a Trail merited encore. THE Olgy COPNCIJL.
