Another small audience greeted the Hev. littler last evening , but all seemed Intent on receiving the Holy Spirit. The usual song service was rendered , the whole congregation hinging. About 1,000 people were present. "In the Bweet Hyand Hy"11 TVIIS sung with avidity by all present. "Precious Savior Thou Hast Saved Me" was then sung and the melody of all those present was simply grand. ' 'The Half Has Never Yet IJoan Told" was then sung with fervor by all present After the song BUI vice , Rov. W. J. llaraha , of the Dodge street Pres byterian church , led in prayer. After this oaino "Halm in Gilcad , " in which nil the congregation joined. "Tlm Lily of the Valley , " the pet of the revival , was Rung after the announcements by Hev. McKuig , "Pray for my neighbors , they say that propers must change them. Pray for them all , " said one of the good Christians who sent in n communication to tnu preacher. An other said ; "Pray for a fallen sister , that Bhoimiyba reclaimed. " "Pray for the Bfiloon men who rccivo the ladles so kindly , " road another. Key. Hitler then arose nnd preached one of his interesting sermons , calling to the minds of the assemblage all the wrongs they had over committed. All in the andionco were nffrotod by his impas sioned and honest talk to all those pros- cut. He talked , as usual , in a friendly , kindly snirit , telling hia andienco that to receive Christ they need not lose nil on earth , but must "do unto others as yon would bo done by. " "Although your sins bo as scarlet , they may be made ns white as snow , " said ho. Ho spoke nbout those who feel that they are good enough. "The Lord is not looking for you , then , " ho said. In another in- RUiiicc , a man may think that he is so low down that Christ \vould not receive him. "Hrethron and sisters , " ejaculated Mr. Hitler , "He will receive youHo wants you. You are not too low for Christ. ' ' The attending people were all attention and showed a great inteicst. In fact , they seemed to bo there for purely religious purposes. "Tho Lord is waiting for each and every one of von , " said lie. Rev. MclCuig , after Mr. Hitler had finished , led in prayer a heartfelt ; fervent appeal to the omnipresent power for Iho Kalvation of all those present ; for -all in the city. His prayer was honest , and brought tears to tlio eyes of the greater part of the congregation. The responses were many'and fervent , all those present seeming to bo impressed with the all-powerfulncss of Christ. "At the Cross" was the song after tlio prayer , sang with a will by all the congregation. Though many maintain to the contrary , it is a settled fact-that the singing helps reatly.in tlio revival. After the song § cv. Hitler asked all wlio hail faith and tfcace and' joy In Clifiht to rise , upon which " " nearly half of .those present roso. "Tho most important i > art of the , evening will bo the retirement of all those who have risen to the inquiry room , " said Mr. Hitler. Many followed ID'S admonition , and the revivalist was made happy to see a largo number go to the room in question. It was a meeting lull of enthusiasm. , See Lchmann & Co. Table Linens and Napkins.

As Miss Annlo Pixloy tripped lightly upon the stage of the Hoyd opera house last night as "M'Llss , " Iho child of the Sierras , shq was greeted with a flattering round of applause. Many there wore In the audience who had scon Miss Pixloy in days gone by , and the recollections re vived by her presence were of the pleas- antest nature. To the old theater-goer Miss Pixloy has boon essentially an American , for she made the great hit of her life in an American play , written by an American playwright. The audience was composed of many of the lady's ad mirers , nnd the ovation she received must have warmed the cockles of a truly American heart. Since last seen in this favorite character of hers she has gained in llcsli somewhat , prob ably rcilccting the charming ovation she received at the hands of the Englishmen , It was , however , the same "M'liss" as of yore , more mellowed and refined if that were possible with the years. The company supporting the star did the work devolving upon them very acceptably , Mr. Hurry Meredith's Im personation of 'Tuba Bill" being partic ularly commendable. Mr. M. C.

OMAHA , April 10.To the Editor : In the Saturday evening edition of the BEE was an article headed "A Denial , " on which I wish to say a few words , and re quest the riastcrcrs'Unron to answ'cr few questions. These gentlemen say they are ready at nil times to defeat an enemy of organized labor. Was the man whose re mains lie moulderinjr in Prospect Hill cemetery a foe of labor ? Was it not a delegation from Ihisso-callCilTlastcrers' Union who ciucrcd a worKingmcns' con vention a few years ago and tried by every means in their power to prevent that body from making a choice ? \V'is ' P. F. Murphy a foe of labor ? These arc questions for the Plasterers' Union to answer. I do not wish to draw into a controversy of this kind my de parted friends , but when these goutlo- nicii poise before the workingmen of this city as the defenders of organized labor I want to show them up in their true light. The mime of P. F. Murphy is loved , honored and rqspeclcd by every workingman in this city a man Whoso hie was unvoted to labor nnd its cause ; a man whom , during hia public career in this city , was without a spot or blemish ; a man who by his own frugal industry placed himself and family in comfortable circumstances , and It was a delegation of tlieso gentlemen from this so-called plasterer's union Unit tried by all the unmanly means in their power to prevent his rcnomination for mayor at the hands of the workingmen of tins city only a year nso. And still they POSO before - fore the public ns union men and friends of labor. There Is a certain class of so-called workingmen In this city who spend the majority of their time loafing .around whisky shops and street corners , disgruntled agitators , not willing to work themselves , who try by all means in their power to pre vent honest workingmen from making a living for their families. It is tliis class of men who bring on strikes , and bring poverty and trouble to the door of honest workingmon. These sollish fellows huve neither feeling or charity for their fcllowmnn , and they measure other men's corn in their own half bush el. As an honored and respected and enterprising citizen 1 honor Thomas E. Hoyd for his manly worth. As a politi cian , and mayor of this city , if 1 feel in clined to cntiei.se his action , that is my privilege. A word now in regard to Mr. Manville - villo : Ho needs no introduction from this Ko-called Plasterers' union to the workingmen of this city. Ho is a friend of labor and its cause , and is an honored member of ono of the largest labor or ganizations of this city. The endorse ment he received at the polls from the workingmen of his ward speaks for it self , and it shows the public what sort of man he is. The writer of the article headed "The Late Election , " and also of this , is ono and the same party. I never was ashamed or afraid to put my name in full to any article I wrote for the public press. Since my boyhood days I have been a firm friend and advocate of the cause oHabpr and \vill always remain so. I havoTJn"ull occasions been fearless in 'expressing mv convictions , and particularly whore labor and its cause were involved. I am op- po.'ed to disgruntled agitators , for they are a curse to the working men of this country. It is from this source that all the workingman's trouble arise. nnd-tho < sooner they'are sat down upon the better it will bo for the laborer"and hvmy opinion there tire a few of tlieso' dis gruntled fellows in this so-called Plas terer's union. For nineteen years I have been a cHi- wn ot this city ; fourteen years of that time was spent among the men , of the Union Pacific blacksmith shop , where I have many friends , and 1 defy any man to say that I was a bar } rroom loatcr or a street corner'agitator , winch cannot bo said of some of my friends. ' I am well and favorably known to the working men of this city , and I nped no recommendation , nor. do I ask-any odds of the members of this so-called plaster ers' union. Yours truly ; WILLIAM MULIIAI.I. . John H. F. Lcbmann & Co. Once tried are sure to retain your patronage. THE 11ATS BIT J1IM. Tlio Experience of fl' Bartender in Opening u Drawer. . There was an expectancy in the' crowd which stood in the Arcadebar , yestyrday noon. They did not order the usual cocktails with which 'they gi-ncrajly dis arranged their stomachs , but simply leaned back against the wall and talked. The bartender , in white vest and iiuumc- iihito linen , gazed wondefingly nt them , and once oven thought of inviting them lip to take a drink. It was just nt the time when the men changed "watches.1' 'Gus was about to go on duty and Pete had finished his morning's work. 'Gus is afraid of rats , while Pete pots and fondles dles them as an old maid does Ills cats. There isl a drawer behind the bar in which ' ( ins , wlio is very par- ticlur about his apparel keeps his snow-white vests. Yesterday the vests were not alone in the drawer. The space was shared by two big rats anxious either to gilnw their way out or die in the attempt. Gus came irr and tool ; olV his coat. The crowd smiled. Ho placed It upon a hook. The crowd talked of tliu ball game. Ho walked hlowly toward the drawer. The crowd looked expect antly. Ho carelessly opened the drawer and reached in his hand , hisoy.ps at the same time being cast upon the opposite mirror. The rats saw the hand and .lumped tor it. Gus also jumped , but not quick enough to avoid the bite. Ho then looked into the druwor aiid with a loud shriek jumped over the counter. He had seen the rats. The moral of this qtory is that forty drinks tit 10 cents each cost § 0. It might 1 > 3 thought by some people that this was a high price to pay for the plain sight of two rats. ( Jus , however , paid it , as the crowd will boar witness. 25 YEARS Ihl USE. Tto Omteit MedtealTrtoiaph of tie Ago !

Ordi nary tortures are tame to the Apache , lie invents nowones. . On his own agency , ami In time of profound peace , the Apaoho is a devil lying in wait for white victims. Two weeks before it was known that ( .icronimo had left thb San Carlos reser vation , a settler on the upper Gila nanre\ ( \ IJollair , whose former homo was in Wis consin , sat smoking his pipe after dinner. On his knee ho had his ( laughter , a child live years old , anil the wife was busy clearing Illegible. Kiyo Indians sudden ly entered the house by the bak door. lied men had often visited the cabin anil boon hospitably ont'irtsiln > > d , but the moment the live stopped in IJollair real ized that they wore bout on mischief. As ho started to his feet an Indian sprang forward and struck at him with a rlllo. The blow fell upon the child's head and crushed It like paper. Bellair seized the gun , wrested it away , and sot upon the live to drive them out. Two of them had seized the wife and were trying to pull her .outdoors. The husbanu laid about him with such desperation that the Indians wore soi/.ed with a momentary panic and retreated. Ho turned the gun and shot ono of them dead tit the door , and the other four ran about 80 rods to cover. It was plain enough that it was a raiding party from the reservation after scalps ami plunder. About 15 rods from tlio house , on Ilia opposite side from which the Indians had taken cover , the ranchman had con structed an outdoor collar. This had been accomplished by digging into a hill tor several feet , anil rnclosmg the front with a double row of planks. There was a stout door , and two or three places had been left for ventilation. Ilulliar instant ly decided to occupy the cellar and make the best defense possible. While the wife was colleetintr a few articjes , ho carried tlio dead body of his child to the place. " Returning , he got Ins rille , revolver and ammunition , and she took a jug of water .and all the r a'ilj'-cooked ' food in the house. " Thus far tlm'ipdians could have had no suspicions ilmt 'the house was being deserted , but as Hollair made another trip to secure n sum Of money he had in the house he was seen and lircd upon. He ran about IralPtheTdistanco to the collar and then receivv.d Sft bullet in the head and fell dead. Thai four Irulians dashed forward to scalp. him , --but the wife stood in the doorway aiuliwouudod ono in the side with a shot from the revolver , and the gang sought cover' Had the husband lying there before her eyes exhibited the slightest sign qf'Hfc th& wjfo Avould bavo chanced all to'bv'Ihg hitif in. but as she 'fully realized thiil , lib vas dealt she witli- . dre\\J to the collar , to await the nejclx movement of , tlp"Jndjans. { Fortunately' for bur the dooi\s"wungiuward. The col lar had not been put to use vet , and she had plenty of room to move about. One of the planks left inside furnished a prop for the door , and she was in a1 situation. , to stand a siege from half the band. As soon as the woman hud escaped them temporarily tlio redskins turned their attention to the house. They d'Ul not dare set it on lire for fear the smoke might bring help , but every article which they coveted was carried out , and they then took axes and demolished every article , of furniture and ehoppi-U ii ) ) the lloor. This work ( iccupied them for about an hour , after which they turned their attention to the woman. A dead child in the darkness with her a dead husband in the sunlight under her eyes the savages reasoned that she must be overcome by her emotions. They at tempted to approach under cover of a llag of truce , but a &bot showed that she saw through thelrv villainous design , There were only three to take an active part , and she had no fear that they could force an cntmnco by the front. The Apaches were silent for a time , tailing care iiQt to expose themselves to her lire. After a quarter , of an horn * .she heard them digging in the earth above her head There wag u depth of four feet of earth above ; her at the weakest . point , and they were entirely sheltered while they worked. They dug for a .while and then abandoned the attempt , having , as was afterward ascertained , broken the spade uud encountered many rocks. ; The next move \vas ono which prom ised to prove fatal to tlm brave woman. The straw I'roin the beds was brought and Hung down in front of the cellar and set lire to.- The planks wore still green , and the wet earth had prevented any drying out. While the straw made a great blaze and the Humes roared and crackled as if catnig ovciything before them , the planks ret'u&cd to burn , and the lire .soon died out. During the next half-hour everything Ayas so ( jniet thai ther woman bog-iin to bu- Hove the Apaches had made oil. It was hist what they had planned for her to ba- Ilove. The trio stood on lop of the cel lar , hoping she u-oiild open the door. As the .sun got further to the west It cast their shadows on the ground , and .she saw them Irom the loopholes and knew the btratiigem they were resorting to. It appeared that the Indians wore anx ious to got awayhcforo , night , but were doubly iinxious.to dispatch tlio woman so that nobody sluAild bo left to identify them.

The three could face her no longer. With yells of dismay , they rushed away to the thicket whcru their ponies were concealed , and no time was lost in leaving the neighborhood. . At sunrise next morning , as ranchmen passed that wqy , they found tlio bodies of the dead aide by side on the grass.

' Still another design has a small broom made of n long wooden toothpick , witli a brush of broom straw fastened on with thread , the latter concealed by the very narrow ribbon now in decorative vogue. Another ribbon ties it to the card mid way of the handle , with a little bow and ends. Witli this these lines may bo used : Pray sweep away this Easter day All cobweb1 * fiom your sky , Ami on your casement pane , I pray , Let not a dust Heck lie. As this now broom inakcsswcct your room , So order fair your soul : Tlio ilwellini : place that Christ would grace Must own his pure control. A pearl gray card , cabinet size , is very pretty with rose colored or bine ribbons , and may be written on with ordinary ink for the above. An easel card , with n tiny calendar on the lower loft hand corner , may be dec orated with a closed umbrella made of toothpicks tied fagot fashion about a longer stick lor a bundle , the whole be ing stained and the thread which binds it concealed with ribbons. Placing the smallest ends of the toothpicks together at the ton it takes the proper shape with out trouble.

Casscll's Family Magazine for April : It is impossible to gaze upon the bronzed features of Mr llonry M. Stanley with out a vivid recollection of tlio famous pic ture of his nrst meeting with Livingstone in the depths of the Dark Continent. "Ir. Livingstone , I presume ? " was the historic phr.a&e in which tlio second great est of African explorers greeted the great est. One of the peculiarities of photog raphy is that Jt. adds stature ; and 1 had pictured the founder of tliu free state of the UOIIKO ns u tall , thiir , wiry man , griz zled with hard wprK with , in short , nil tlio outward attributes of an old cam paigner. 15ut when there presently joined mo in the cpsy drawing room in Kow IJond street u gentleman some what below the average height , with a thicit-sot frame indicative of great powers of endurance , the well-known short moustache , and a face deeply browned by tropical suns as they shone upon forests and plains where no other white man has ever set foot , there was no need for introduction. Mr. Stanley greeted mo cordially , and settled himself clown in an urmuhuir as though , instead of having upon nis shoulders the care of a state covering a million and a half square miles , he had nothing to do but to be Interviewed. Upon the table lay a Helgium map of the Congo , showing the results of , thu explorations which liave heim made since Mr. Stanley's departure for Kuropo. and the now volume of the Almauachdn Gotha. In which the Congo is for the tirst time included among sov ereign states. The world , needs not to bo told that Mr. Stanley is enthusiastic in his view of the rich capabilities and the splendid future - turo of the Congo , lint he has not the manner of an entnusiast , His speech is calm , thoughtful , based upon facts and figures. When ho wishes to enforce a point , or to clinch an argument , ho leans Iprvvaril in hi.s chair and speaks with the subdued earnestness and rjuiel energy of conviction. One of tliu most salient im pressions tire Interview left upon mo was that of a man pos.ses.siin : a boundless store of reserved force ; capable of taking fc'i'unt duuidions in a moment of supreme crisis ; a man of boundless energy with whom danger and dillicnlty have been constantly present , and in whom natural coolness and fertility of resource have been develop cd _ into an instinct. CJ'ohrt Work Continues. " | don't wonder you reserved this ground , it certainly beats any aero property shown mo- , and what a view ! the city seems not a block off : I'll take these two acres 4ind have a house on them in less than six months.

"It Is only Madge Alcot , the ugliest little old maid in town. " And Hos.imond Rivers' soft laugh rang out high above the tones of all tire ether girls ns she spoko. I stood and hoard It without n word. It made mo wince a little , of course , and yet I know that the words were true. I was an "old maid. " 1 was "ughI was "littlo. " Yet was 1 to blamoT Rosamond Rivers , of course , didn't know that I had heard her words. She meant nothing only ft lovely , gay young girl docs not always stop to pick and ohooso her words when she is speak ing of one whose bloom is over. And I never was pretty ; neither was 1 rich , nor accomplished. So I had quietly made tip my mind to live single and alone In the world , earn my own livlmr and do my best to help along those wlio were poorer and weak er than myself. . My Undo Charles had loft mo the little farm-house , under the elm trees , with the apple orchard on the side built toward the trout brook nnd the sunny pastures who.ro the wild strawberries ripened first , and that was all I had. CT3 "Hotter sell It , " ndvlsrd my friends , lint 1 had no idea of giving up my homo for the few hundred dollars that its money value would represent. I thought it over and came to the con clusion : ' 'I'll take summer hoarders. " And this accounts for Mr. Paul Cas- tleton being n resident under my hum * bio roof that eventful July. Ho came there with his two gold- haired little girls nnd their African nurse , who looked BO picturesque with the big hoops of yellow metal hanging from her curs and the rainbow tnrlian twisted about her ebon brows a hand some , stately widower. The little girls had drooped m the sultry atmosphere of their southern home , and ho came to seek their health anil welfare more than his own. Rosamond Rivers had recom mended him to come to the Elm Farm ho was u friend nay , I was almost dis posed to think him an admirer of hers. "I'm much to Rosic " so obliged you , , sard 1 , fervently. "You needn't bo , " said Rosamond. "I wasn't thinking of you nt nil , although , of course , I'm glad to have got you the twenty-live dollars a week ; but 5'ou BOO it wouldn't ' do at all for him to have gone to the hotel. " " " I asked "Why not ? ' You silly little goose , don't j'ou see ? Holla Murtyn boards at the hotel , anil Dr. Milton's prcttj daughtcM.and they'd any one of them be bitre to make a dead set at Mr. Custloton. At the farm , you know , bo's perfectly safe. " It was truu enough what she said , yet it cut me to the heart. Uelln Mnrtyn is n stately beauty. Lorn and Uessio Milton wore piquant , coquettish little creatures. I strove , however , to govern myself. "Is he your lovcrv" 1 asked. " What No ! " "My lover ! nonscnccl and she tossed her pretty head. "Hut there's no telling what will happen. Of course he won't always remain n widow er and he did ask me twice to go to the opera with him when [ was in the south last winter. Such an elegant place in Richmond as bo has ! " I listened , not enviously , but sadly. The little russet-winged moth is not supposed to bo envious of the blue and gold butlerlly. I knew that Rosamond was beautiful and talented that , it was for her to build all .sorts of serial castles , none oi which was too bright to bo real. As for mo well , 1 must plod along as best I could on the shady side of life's road. I admired MY. Castlelon very much. Who could help it ? There wis : some thing so chivalrous and noble in his way of adapting hinifeelf to my poor little house unit homespun ways , and being pleased with everything 1 did. The little girls. Hell and Violet , were charming , and old Venus beamed like the sun of her own tropical clime. "Didn't never s'poso do norf was so nice , " said old Venus "Clar to gra cious , it's equal to ole Vircinny. " And on jilcasant summer evening * Rosamond Rivers and her brother , tiic young lieutenant of artillery , would row up as far as the apple trees on the river. Rosamond sat on tlio lawn with Mr. Cas- tletpn , or made believe to phiv croquet , until the purpling twilight warned her that it was time to return to the village. "Dut young lady , she's a-making eyes nl Mar.se Paul , " said old Venus one night , with a nod of the head that set her great gold earhoops rattling ! "Hut tain't no use ! Marco Paul knows better. " Hut Venus did not look at beautiful Rosamond Rivers with a man's impas sioned eyes , and Mr. Castlelon did. How could lie help it ? It was very foolish of mo to fall into the river. I wasrjjiiehinjjout for Violet's pocket-handkerchief , which bad acciden tally dropped inwhen , 1 lost my balance and fell. The river was not clcop just there , but of course I was frightened. Wo all wpro frightened. Venn.- , uttered-a.yell which might have roused the Seven Sleepers. Violet and Hell -shrieked at the top of their shrill little "voices ; and Ilia first I know , Mr. Castleton had sprung in after mo and dragged mo to land. "Mailgol" he cried out breathlessly , calling me for the jiivt limein my life by my Christian name , "Madge * toll mo that you uro not hnrtv" 1 was crying 'with fright and chill a very ridiculous tiling for me to do , of course ; but I managed to sob out : "No , not hurt , thank Jou. I 1 am vorv sorry I was so Mnpul. ' "Thank God ! " ha murmured. "Oh , Miiilgu , if you bad died I believe I should have perished with you. " "Mr. Custloton ! ' "Is it pos-iiblo , Mndgo , that you have been blind to my love ? l-'or 1 do loyo you , my little , modeht daisy. Ntvy , 1 will not detain you now ; you arc wet and cold and trembling , Hut to-night , if 1 am to rail you mine , wear n knot of those white ro es in your breast. " l crept up to my room and cried through my great happinos.s. It wn& like a glad dream , too pcrleet to be true. I wore the roses in my breast when I went , happy and blushing , down to tea How could it bo that Mich a homely little brown sparrow us I could attract the love'of a prince among men like Paul CuHtleton ? This is how my summer of keeping boarders ended. And Rosamond Uivern declares it would have bci'ii better policy for her to have let Mr. Custleton go to the hotel , after all. "For who would have dreamed of sus pecting you , you sly little gray-eyed puss ? " SHVS she. Hut 1 bdliove she is sincerely gratified with mv fortune , after all. And Venus is slighted !
