Yesterday morning a number of Ind

Hc.Jwho seemed possessed ot a great deal
more of the benelits and appearances of
civili/ation than many of their race who
pass through this city. Tliero wore four
women anil three men. The latter wore
ijlad in black witli broad straw hats of
I'.ho 'same color. Tlio women looked at
first like bereaved females , but a closer
inspection of their countenances revealed
features which did not scorn in tlio least
disturbed by sorrow. Around their ncoks
vhoy displayed the usual love of tlio
Judian female for decoration , and each
of them wore a necklace of three and
.sometimes four strings of golden beads.
Accompanying them was a distinguished-
looking Indian name 1 Joseph Larondo.
lie was nearly six feet high , of broad
and massive frame , an elegant
carnage , and with a sot of
intelligent and swarthy features. He was
dressed as would be an intelligent man
ot busine.sb while on the road , tlio whole
covered with an aniplo linen dusterwhich
well displayed liin lingo proportions.
Tlio names of the other men. who scorned
to bo employes , were Soso Taiorakwisin
and Peter Staey. Tlio women were Mrs-
LOIIII L'iroiidii , Mrs. Anon Tioaron , Mr.s
Ouwaii Wattinnas andMrd.AUat Karien- ,

nun Biindny Night.
Sunday ovoningat tlio Union Paoillo de
pot , what might have boon a serious ac
cident , was nvortod only by a hair's
breadth. Train No. 1 had jiibt pulled
into the depot , and passengers had com
menced to go on board. One ot liarku-
low's mon had already run a truck loaded
with two chests , 0110 of which rusted on
the inclined end , which was run m > to
tlio stops of tliu plntlorm. While the
truck was in this position , tlio train
etnrtcd up about lifty fuel , twisting tlio
truck slowly around , so that it would
bavo been caught by the bottom
of the car and smashed with its
load. Ono employe attempted to pull
it out from danger and rolled among
I the hoses , mid another at the risk of bo-
U 4CJi4- ' shod to death caught hold of its
upnus-od handle to keep it from being
drawn further in toward themovingcars.
It was fortunate that the latter wore of
ihe sumo width. If they had not had not
boon the truck and trunks would have
boon crushed and with the crowded con-
4itlon loss of Ufa must have unsnoil.
rhlnUmr the train was leaving , Freight
Agent Murdoch of the Union Pitcllio
jumped on tlio platform of one of the
t cars and narrowly escaped being struck
by the Iwii'Jlo of one of the dangerous
I trucks.

Yesterday Chiet Uallignn of the lire
jopnrtmnnt Issued an order com-
\olling the members of every lire com
pany in the glty to practice hitdilnjj
their teams between UU3 : and 10 o'clock
on every morning of the week excopl
Wednesday , Saturday and Sunday. This
is in conformity , witli the practice wlticli
obtains iu Chicago ami all othur largt
citlo1 ! . There they have a number of
assistant marshals whose duty it is to
sec that these practice hours are kept nu ,
which they do by visiting the d'liorcnt '
companies in their respective brigades nt
the time nt which the work should bo
in progress. As a consequence , the
men have , in most cases , become o nro-
licicnt that their hitching is done almost
with tlio celerity of electricity. This
morning the Omaha firemen for the first
time undertook their half hour of regular
practice and kept It tip with a great deal
of interest ami enthusiasm. At tlio house
of No. 2 , on Tenth street , the practice at
tracted a largo attendance Jof pa sers-by
and other curious people , who watched
the business for minutes a a time. Kaeli
of tlio members of the company took
turns in hitching alone , while at times
two men undertook the work. Some ot
tliosu who hitched singly did tlio work in
seven second" , while certain pairs ac
complished tlm hitching in about three
and one-half seconds.

Tlio Bohemian Catholics of this city ,
who have long been worshipping in a
frame .structure on South ThiiU'untlt
street , opposite ono of tlio Bohemian
halls in tli.it vicinity , have at length de
cided to abandon their old church and
erect a now one. The former was a
frame structure , reclaimed , soinn years
ago , from other uses than those of
prayer , and turned into a house of wor-
bhip. Tlie grading of the street left it be
low the sidewalk , and the increase of tlio
congiegation rendered it too small to bo
longer titm/.ca. As : x consequence , the
now building has been under
taken and work will be com
menced immediately at tlio corner of
Fourteenth and Lane streets. It will bo
M\8j ) feet ami accommodate about 800
persons. Jt will bo of frame and is to
cost about $3.000 The plans have boon

ure , ; which will bo one of tlio prettiest
churches in tlio city. Tne present inten
tion is to finish the church before the approach

Synopsis of Hcv. W. J. llarslia's
Sornum Yesterday.
The following is tiio synopsis of Rev.
AV. J. llarslia's sermon at the Dodge
street church Sunday morning The
text was John 11:21. : "He that hath my
commandments and keepeth them , lie it
is that lovctli me ; and ho that lovcth mo
shall be loved of my Father , and I will
love him and "ill manifest mvsolf to
him. "
Sometimes at saa a whirlwind passes
along over the waters showing a straight
track of white foam sweeping into the
very face of the wind. Thus a Christian
man may go against the strongest earthly
force , his confident tread making a stir
upon the sea of life and the sunshine of
God settling upon his head. In the text
such a man is described , and in describ
ing him ho has presented to us two great
thoughts : There are commands of Christ
of absolute authority , and keeping them
develops relations of mutual love.
\Vlioro shall wo find tlio command
ments of Christ ? There is no decalogue
in the New Testament. But they are all
summari/od in that saying which , more
frequently than any other , is on his life :
"Follow me. ' If we want to know our
duty we have but to do as ho did. Speak
as lie spoke , live as lie lived , and wo are
safe. There can bo no perplexity pre
sented to us in which tins will not be a
full and snnieiont guide , ilonce Christ
could say with absolute authority : "For-
give your enemies. Bo perfect as your
Father in heaven is perfect. Let your
light shine before men. " He did all this
himself and he could command it and
did command it in his all-inchibivo pro-
cent "Follow me. " *
The second thought is , by doing this
we will develop relations ot mutual Jove.
Wo will love him , i > s he says , because if
we study his character to know our duty
wo cannot help loving him. "Tlie Father
will love us , " because lie delights to POO
us conforming our lives to tlio life of
Christ. And the Saviour will complete
tlio circle by loving ns also , because he
will see us trying to become like himself.
I'lio church is a poor , ragged brida taken
into the homo of God , ana as God sees
the shy creature drawing all her joy and
duty by looking at tlio bridegroom , llo
cannot help loving her as Christ io\cs
her and as she loves Christ ,

DAY AND NIGHT AT WO11K.
The WorklnK of the Now Itulo Tor
Union I'aclllo Train Men ,
In conversation with a railroad man yes
tcrday morning a Hut : reported learn-
L'itlmt ; there was little surprise among the
men along the line that so many acci
dents had happened of late upon the
Union Pacilio. The former ascribed it
not to tlio carelessness of the employes ,
nor yet to the inability of the officers ,
but rather to the rule which was recently
put In force of paying the mon by tlio
mile , The rule , of course , was first in
troduced ns an experiment. Some
of the muii then rebelled atrainst
it , upder a misapprehension that
it would not enable them to earn as much
as they had been earning under tlio old
rule , They have been disabused of this
idea , now , because many of them liiul
tlmt , under the Infest change mentioned ,
they may earn much more nowin a month
than formerly while under regular pay.
JJut , they claim , it is all owing to extra
pay for extra work. This so satisitos
Homo ot the men thai if they are asked to
wt .lk their cars or drive tin engine fet
louyur periods thuu u '
work , they nro plowed to dose
so because ! of the extra pity. Under the
now rule , if a man runs to Grand Island
and has been hold up on the track for
four or live hours , tlnw working perhaps
fourteen hours , should ho told on his
arrival to turn around , without rest , and
take a train back to Omaha , although
that might keep him on the io.it ! as niueh
as twenty-eight hours * he would yet be
compelled to return. There have been
instances of this kind , it IH claimod.wliorc
men have been in tlm cab for twenty-
four hours , ami It is stated that it Is use
less to cxpect.i'iider these circumstances ,
that they can do well the work required
of t'.iom.

Strny Leaven From a. Heportcr's
Note-Hook.
A good story is told of an Omaha man ,
who spent n few days in Chicago last
week. The gentleman referred to is
Dennis Cunningham , who , with F. J.
McShano , went to Chicago to see tlio
sights. While in that city they wont out
on an excursion steamer for a ritlo on tiio
lake. Lunch time came , ami both gen
tlemen scldown to the table in the cabin ,
ready to devour almost anything sol be
fore thorn. Mr. McShaue gave his order ,
and tlio colored waiters then politely
asked Mr. Cunningham what lie would
like. Mr. C. pondered a moment , and
then said , "Give mo half a do/.on lob
sters. "
"Whatl" gasped tlio winter , ' 'Yo' wauls
a half do/.on lobstahs' ' "
"That's what 1 said1 replied Mi. C.
pompously , "I guess you lieaid me. "
The waiter appeared to bo a trillc
dazed , but ho nevertheless wont out pre
pared to till the order. Pretty soon lie
returned. Ho was staggering under tlio
weight of a platter about live feet long ,
on which lay > sprawling lobsters , eacli
a foot or inoio in leiii'lii. The waiter
proudly placed them before Mr. C. witli
the sententious remark , "Dalt's yo' lob-
stahs. salil"
"How much are they ? " that gentleman
linally managed to inquire.
G "Three dollahs and a half , " was the re
ply.Mr.
Mr. Cunningham thought a moment ,
and said : "I guess I won't eat them all to
day. Uring me a halt of one. " Tlio
\\aitor obeyed. Mr. C. will never
order six Chicago lobsters again.
A young and well known physician of
this city was placed in a rather embar
rassing predicament tlio other morning.
He had borrowed a box of poker chips
from a well known down town resort ,
and invited a few friends to a quiet little
jrnmo of draw in his private apartments ,
i'ho no.\t morning ho placed the chips in
his overeoat pocket , intending to return
them. Unfortunately there was a hole in
the pocket , and just as tlio doctor readied
the corner of Fifteenth and Douglas , the
box slipped through. In a moment the
pavement was strewn with a hundred
red , white and blue poker chips Every
body stared , but nobody seemed to know
from whoso pocket tlio chips had fallen.
The doctor , with remnrkablu presence of
mind , walked straight on , turning neither
to the right or loft until ho got about a
halt block away , when ho paid a small
boy25 cents logo back and pick up the
chips.
THE DKl'OT.
Tacts Which Prevent Its Immediate
Tlio Union Pacific is soiling the old
buildings upon tlio tract on which it pro
poses to erect its now freight depot.
Several of these have been disposed of at
wondrously low prices , and now but tlio
John Green mill remains to bo c.irtcd
away. George Duncan , hns nn ice house
on tno southeast corner of Jackson and
Ninth streets , just where the company
proposes to commence to build its offices ,
which he hns neglected to remove
for spine time past although long ago
notilicd to that effect. It will soon have
to go , however , and when it does , tliu
work on the office pn < 't of the. depot will
bo bejriin. With regard to Wakelield's
lumberyard , the company will not bo
able to build over that for some tune ,
though Mr. Wakoliold will move to his
now place west of the city as soon as a
sewer which is now in course of erection
is completed. His lease ends next Feb
ruary , but ho will have loft before that
time , when the square will practically bo
at the disposal of the Union Pacilio.

David Ilradslmw "It is a shame tlmt a
city .should allow these public drinking
fountains to remain open while there is
so much glanders in the city. That dis
ease is spreading rapidly in the city and
1 bolicvo it is because horses are allowed
to drink out of these public fountains
wliero glandorcd animals also are allowed
to drink. I bolicvo that these fountains
ought to bo closed , at least until the dis-
ca c is checked. The face is that the au
thorities are not tnKing sufficient precau
tion to prevent the spread of the dis
ease. "
