THE DAILY BEE-TUESDAY , MARCH 10 , 1885. A SPIRITUALISTIC "HULL , " Tcstcrtlay'B OponlnR Iiectnro on Bplr- Itnnllflm lit Metropolitan Hall. A BEK reporter attended the lecture delivered at Metropolitan hall Sunday afternoon by Mn. Hull , formerly of lies- ton , bat now resident In Iowa. The lec turer Is of potllo form and figure , of no ticeably nervous , or rather quick manner , but perfectly at homo upon the loctura boards. She has a face that shows thought nnd study and impresses ono with the Idea that she is terribly In earnest , cither in her belief In the theory she ad vocates , or her effort to make her hearers nccopt it ; perhaps in both. The exorcises "or began by reading an iginal poem" in a manner most pleasant nnd indicative of study and pnotica. Then followed a song which was very pretty in Itself nnd moro th n panably well sang. Other songs with organ ac companiment , in which the audience joined , filled tbo firtt half hour , when the lady hunched into the subject of the loo- tare , After a well worded introduction the Icc'.uror declared that unless a theory ia bated upon reason it will not nor does it deserve to stand. That the doc trine aba advocated was bissd upon reason ; that whatever has boon spokou or written in favor of Christianity ia Us usual sense , golntf to prove the doctrine of immortality and a future existence to bo a fact , also proves that spiritualism is truo. During the put twenty jcara the chief opposition to the doctrine she ad vocated has como from the -church pul pits , but that is all silenced now In In telligent quarters. The remaining enemy of spiritualism Is modern materialism ; it is an active enemy. There are two sorts of spiritualists , she said ; one she called epirttuello , the Bother spiritist , and she draw the point of distinction between them in a mojt spiritualistic manner it Deemed to the reporter. This doctrine , she hold , must bo studied : It moat bo Investigated llko other theories , because reason is at the bottom and by reason alone will its truth become manifest ; the spiritual world la a world of reality , filled with spirits , It is separate from this world or life though is connected with Its people ple ; each member of the audience is a real spirit , the fact that they are clothed In flesh and blood matters not. Spiritualism accepts "religion , " not in its trao moaning of something that is In the past , but as all that is good , humane , pure , ennobling and productive of happi ness and good , for the religion of the spiritualists Is as bread as humanity and as deep. The lecturer claimed the mastery of men and women by church , as an organ ization of narrow creed and sect , has de parted forever , -This world , this ago , move , and so docs her caaso it oilerj the printing press and sshool room in- atcad of a pulpit of narrow doctrines /Science and arts are at the front and the : thooris she advocates run in company with them. There are at this era bettor "brains , bettor thoughts , wider and moro lllboral views , all things progressing and .enlarged except the sectarian religions ; thu/J with their narrow principles linger alone in the roar. Great geniuses cm not bo slaves nor bo confined by puny minded sects or narrow visions. The lecturer at this point presented a most ( beautifully worded picture of the strains of unwritten music that play upon the Ideal brain of the composer , which ho cannot rod nee to writing , end thuJllns - tratod her theory. Prccoedi. L n tnrer appealed to geology andtnp gu ro. phy of tb. 3 hoivciu , showing that all the lessons gathered in those fields of explo ration sostalu her philosophy. Hooting at the narrow , puny ideas tint are at tempted to bo forced upon mon and women by weak and nirrow teachings , the lady closed , a well delivered and care- jnlly worded address with a rhythmical peroration of extreme beauty , whoeo delivery livery showed her a atndent of elocution At once palm taking aud appreciative. .Mrs. Hall goes this week to Madison , bet will , she , tcld the reporter , lecture hero at times daring a month. Her audi ciico frequently applauded some of her many beautiful coatonces , while gener ally her intense earnpetnoes of manner hold their silent attention. Among the numerous unfortunates before Judge Heaeko yesterday was ono who was there for tie first time. His dress and gen eral appearanoa betokened his calling and his rinlc among the horny-handed men of labor. The charge was too much of that which steals nway men's brains , and when ho was called to ptaiid up before the terrible dispenser cf law nnd juBtlco nnd asked what he had to say , with tremulous lips ho declared , "upon my word Judge I hail no moro than two di inks ol whisky , but It was upon an empty itomajh and the vllo etull turned me over ; it did , in deed , sir. " "Go on , go on , now ; don't take up my time or I'll turn you over to jail. Go , nnd don't como here again , " said the court , "That I will , sir , you bet I will go a grinning1 and he went a Rrinnlug. Another of Oinaua'c Improvements.

The cas3 of Connally vs. Miller , a unit In replevin to recover same property attached by Sheriff Miller was next taken up. GIVEN TO THE JURY. In the Mills libel protocation yester day the attorneys summed up the caio and the judge , after Instructions , give it to the jury , who had not returned a vf r- diet at the hour of adjournment last eve ning. It will doubtless bo ready and banded In this rooming. Tun BEK has no desire to repeat or re call the features of this dirty , scandalous case. Whatever the truth may bo , the ciso is too vile for the coIomuR of a paper that lospects itself or Its virtuous and refined - fined readers. Such things as arc charged by the ono party in the caao and denied by the other party interested nny and doubtless do occur In tbii world of human fillings , and for the good of so ciety and good order the law prcicrlbos punishment , but no good can como to the virtuous , the pure and the stainless from a display in the colurani of reputable journals of such shimo nnd degradation as characterized the ground-work of this BOinowhat notorious prosecution. What ever determination the jury arrive at will ratlsfy the law and therefore should satisfy society During the hearing of tha case Judgj Wakoloy has evinced re markably good taste and displayed a full and ready acquaintance with tbo princi ples of law and the ru'os ' of practice , and to his everlasting credit bo it said , ho has drawn the reins upon the advocates of both sides nnd held them as nearly as possible within the bounds and down to the question at Issue. The attorneys have done their whole duty and when the jury shall have fully performed their solemn aflico , lot us hope that tbo case and its filthy surrounding Trill bo forgot ten. A VERDIcr. At a late hour the jury returned their vordlct , by which they find the defendant , James Mills , guilty ot criminal libel as chirged. The Howard murder case was next taken up. The circumstances attending the indictnont of the defendants , Lizzie Howard and John Thompson , for the suspected criino of fatally burning the girl , Nettle Howard , by throwing coil oil ever her and then setting her on fire , are too well known to need minute detailing. A special venue of fifty juron hns been ordered , as eleven out of the first twelve wore objected to on the cclf-confessed grounds of being prejudiced. The trial promises to bo one of soniational devel opments , and will doubtless bo largely attended by those who have a penchant for the horrible. DISTRICT COURT NOTES.

At a second meeting of citizens of the Second ward hold Saturday night in ? orter Bro.'s sloro , corner Laavonworth and Phil Sheridan etrcotj , thera was n arga attendance of residents of the second district , and several from the southern part of the ward. Considerable dissuasion of ways and moans to secure representation of that section in the city council occurred. A largo number of thojo present exprotsed themselves. Mesiw. M. Lee , H. G. Clark nnd A. Pratt wore spoken of a * fit candidates , and some desire was manifested to present - sent their names to the two conventions. [ t was finally deemed inadvisable to make formal nominations , and the neotlng adjourned after passing a roaoln- ion that it was the sense of the meeting , hat ono of the six conncilmon to bo elected by the city at largo should bo a resident of the Second district of the Second ward. The reasons for this action nro found in the fact that the ; roator port of public improvements ikoly to ba done In the second word the coming * year will naturally fall upon the west end , which baa heretofore received comparitivoly little consideration from ho council. The best of feeling pre vailed , and it Is believed the two meet- ngs will awaken enough interest to in duce citizens of the "hill" to attend the > rimarles this spring. Omaha O , It. and S.

Special Correspondence ot TUB BEB.1 WASHINGTON , D. 0. , March 5. A lovely day , n huge throng , n magnificent military and civic display , tlio piogramino successfully carried oat ; nnd yon h vo the inauguration in fall , tlio telegraph having given yea the details. Ono feature of oar governmental eys- ; cm waa grandly illuatratod : the transl- .Ion of power of ono to another ; the lay ing down of executive authority by ono , and the tiklrg of it up by another. At ilgh noon Chester A. Arthur is presi dent ; a moment elapses , an oathis Ukon , and Grover Cleveland is president. The change takes place OB quietly and smooth- y ca the water lions in the little rivulets ; but in that act the verdict of the Ameri- i people la comumated. Mr. Cleveland appeared to good ad vantage , and ho had the GOOD SENSE AND THE 0001) TASTE to deliver hla address and not read it ; ho bad no manuscript before nothing aavo in envelope on which there were n iow bends of hla discourse , and to which ho referred twice. Aa ho stood before the vast multitude ho was ouliroly self pos sessed , calm and collected ; ho spoke in a load , clear voice , well modulated , and vras hoard a long distance from the stand. Hla whole bearing and deportment was unostentatious , dignified and ImprcJulvo Wo had just listened to Edmunds it the senate , reading his valedictory , anc to Hendricka reading hla inaugural , the latter about four minutes In length , anc the former about seven. Both rose them very poorly , espec'ally Hcndrlcka , who was not hoard by half of those h the senate. Ho used to have a Rood voice , and was a good speaker. It is strange that mon who have boon In pab- Ilo life as long as Edmunds and Hen- drlcks , and old lawyers , too , should fcol constrained to read their little speeches on this occasion , ot that baa boon the practice of the presidents of the senate nd the speakers of the house. I hope Cleveland has sob a precedent in this re spect that will bo followed. Extempor aneous speaking should bo a feauturo of everyone's education. Whenever I see a notice of a debating society or lyconm , I always foal that these who are engaged in them deserve encouragement , for the result mast bo mutual improvement. As to the address , yon h vo it , and I shall not comment on it , except to re mark that if any ono can draw any assnr anco from it that republicans will not itop down and out and democrats step in , I predict they will not find it well supported. IN HIS CABINET SELECTIOlvS ; bo president has committal the mistake of which I wrote in a former letter the taking of two from ono state , and that state Now York , from which lie comes , [ t is universally admitted to bo a mis take , a blunder , and by none more than by democrats. Ohirans say their state ! iss baen snubbed , and ask why such mon as Thurman and Pcndleton , of national reputation and standing , of experience in public affairs , bo thrust aside for un known figures , like Manning and Whit ney ? Indiarmns are literally mad , and rave at the ignoring of that state. All the democratic mcinbera cf the Indiana legislature asked that ex-Senator McDon ald m'ght be selected from that state , and this was supplemented by a letter to Cleveland signed by twenty-ono demo cratic United States Senators , strongly recommending McDonald. A little knot of Indiana democrats wore dipcusiing this matter to-day ; one of them told mo what they had said , the substanca of which was that they would remember Hen- dricks , The conviction is fixed in the minds of Indianians that Hondrlcka haa done all in his power to prevent the ap pointment of McDonald to the cabinet , ind has been KNIFING DIM ALL THE TIME , after having betrayed him at the Chicago convention. No matter what denials may bo made , they believe , and it is notorious at Indianapolis , that family iealoneies have much to do with thta justness Dan. Manning , the head cf the news paper machine , to bo secretory of thor r < ? aanry I A nun without experience in any public petition whatever. Wra. 0. Whitney , to ba secretary cf the novy I True he hai boon corporation attorney 'or the city of New York , but were these two the best littcd and most worthy democrats In all this wlda an fcr the vaitd responsibilities of the treasury , and for the duties of the navy department. Then the question is asked , "Who is Endicott , of Massachu setts ? and why does Cleveland' snub Con necticut , which gave to him her voteand to Massachusetts for a cabinet officer , state which voted for Blaine , and which democrats do not hope to make democratic , in this generation at least ? " There ia Connecticut , which Is doubtful , and which deserves encouragement from the new administration , say the demo crats , ex-Governor English , a man of national reputation , having served long in congress , and a governor of his state ; also ex-Governors Ingersoll and Wall ! * , Tbcao are all parsed 'for Endioott , of MoMachusottB , .who was ssrccly over beard of outside of that state ; a very respectable gentleman , and has boon a judge of the supreme court thera By the way , Is the supreme court of Massachusetts a kind of training school for the cibinot ? Franklin Pierce toik Caleb Gushing , who was a justice of that court , for his attorney general. General Grant appointed as hii attorney general E. R. lioir , who was a member of that coart at the time. n yes selected Charles Devens for his attorney general , who waa on that bench at the time. Now , Cleveland has taken for tocretary of war ono , though he is not now on the bench , has been one of the judges of that court. It will bo remembered that Payne , the now senator from Ohio , was elected by the Standard Oil company. PAJJIO'O son ii head and front of that company. An appropriate reference now to Ilia ttato of Ohio , in connection with the senate , is thns ; "Ohio Is now represented In the United States tenato by John Sherman and the Standard Oil CMopmy , " Whit ney , the secretary of the navy , Is a son in-law of Pay no.

BLAIU , Nob. , March 7. Amid the incoming - coming and outgoing of admliilalrationu , the concern over the Soudan problem , and with an eye constantly to bo kept over rm uncertain legislature , the depart ure and longabsonco of your friend and I may siy the very dear friend of many of us hero Farmer Frank , of the Pilot , bas evidently oecapod the notlco of TJIK BKK. But true It Is and the world seems provokingly Indifferent to a matter of such suprorno importance that some week slnca his excellency , the governor of the state , in appointing Unrepresenta tive agriculturists to represent Nebraska at the AVorld'a Fair at Now Oilcans , named , this distinguished tiller of the sol [ ns ono of the number. While TIO have severely felt his absence , wo deelrc , icvortholcsr , to mingle our congntula- -loiis tti'h those of the stnta at largo oyor ho fitness of the appolntmrnt , and the ilgh resultj which must How from it. This selection Is ono of the most brilliant acts of a brilliant administration , and goes far In refuting the petty ahr.deri of scurrlloas scribblers and pictorial prints which luprosont our governor as com- icsod of MOKE HAIIt THAN 8KNSE. I have hoard It hinted by some in ; heso parts that tills choice of the govor- lor was made In consideration of certain ftiond'y ' and flittering notices rchioh hovn ippearod in Farmer Frank's paper. Wo lave no patlonca with such lov insintia- .lonr. They ate but omonntions from small minds incapable of compichondlag the methods of great mon. lostinct alone would point to Bitten as the far mer among farmers. Instinct led Fal- staff to dutoct the true princo. The gov ernor , though want'ng ' the bowels , has all the bravery and instinct of Falstsff , and of oven a bettor quality. FahtatTs was no doubt corrupted by his assooln- ion with riotous robbers nnd immoral mon and women , while his excellency's mint have been improved and purified by ils aesoclatlon with the Kendalls , the riiurstona , the Stouts and Hofl'mons. No , i am glad Governor Da we a allowed n > oclings of faho rcodps'y ' ti interfere with liii ilaty , tr prejudice ih publio good. The popular finger poln'.ed as of ono accord to THIS JiOIlNY HANDED FAUMEU is its fitting representative , end nottj invo inmed him would hayo clone vio- eli co to public opinion. Although known .13 something of a paragrnpulst. yet it is in the field of g- Iculturo our friend hai earned his chief amc. Hla oarliett hitt ry in Ilia utato , as far as known , associates him with spadoa. Ho , In tru h , always delighted n & hand flush with them , and it was , hls paitinlity of his wh'ch ' early brought jim Into the notice and favor of that em inent but modeit agriculturist , Canadian William. I bavo read your allusion to lim as a ' 'capper" ' for that illustrious : oreignor. What a _ "capper" may bo 1 am not really advised , but I am sure It must have close relation to this noble science to whfch our entlnitiatt gives so many nights and days. It is Eald the Almighty writes an un mistakable hand. If by this it is meant ihat from one's appearance you can de cide whether ho is an artist , a lawyer , a 'armor , and so on , I must dissent from the proposition. Farmer Frank lookn ANYTHING UUT A FARMEU. In fact ho much resembles Mr. Paddy [ lyan , a somewhat calebratod reprcscnta- ivo cf the manly art , and if it i not ini- loealblo that when he liwt presented him self bsforo the -worM'H congress of agri- culturis's at New Orleans ho nny havj been mislnkon for that gentleman looking after one Mr. Sullivan of Boston. But ifter floumhiog 1m spades , showing hii iind and raking in some , 1 PHI sure there wtH no farther doubt , and I am satisfied our fanner friend was ab'o to show them nany tiicka of the roblo ecioneo they never dreamed of.
