There was a large audience at Broad way .Methodist church yesterday morn ing to hear Mr. Ioi rest , the Evangelist. As usual his discourse abounded in ec centricities. When he started into the revival work hero a week ago yesterday ho began thumping tlie professing church folks tor their inconsistencies , ant ! ho has kept it up nearly all the week. Sam Jones seems to have boon thn fattier of this peculiar policy of starting a revival. Many church folks need pounding , with out doubt. No successful work with sin ners can bo accomplished until those in side Iho church "gel regular , " as Forrc t puts it. Tlio sinners Hook in to hoar the church folks catch it , and thus the sin ners are within roach , when the time comes to turn tlie guns upon them. It was .supposed that 1'orrest had got about through thrashing the church mem bers , but yesterday morning ho gave them anot'ier ' roimil. As usual , Ins spoke frequently of the "sealskin" and "ice cream" Christians , for whom he has a great di like. In his opening prnyor ho prayed for "ThoMj who are in the shadow , when they ought to be in ( Jod's sunshine. Poor hoys of hell ! " He also asked (5od ( to help "those professing Christians who cover themselves with a cloak of righteousness but it hides only n ghastly corpse , whoso very stench drives other souls away and keeps them from being saved. " "His te\t was : "Will a man rob God ? " "If 1 should call some of you lolks robbers , you would get mad and say to yourselves , 'I'll just do that fellow. I'll bring him up in the court and make him prove it. ' Still , some of you are robbers. You're robbing Hod. " What is it to rob God ? It is to deprive him of his just duos , ( iod gives us life , health , time , money. Vou owe these things to ( ion. Are you meeting your obligations ? Gamblers as a rule will pay what they borrow. There's honor among thieves. When I was gambling I would often borrow from one hundred to live , just on my word. J know that if I didn't ' pay as 1 agreed they'd sav : 'For rest don't meet his obligations , ' and I'd have been barred out of every game in tlio city. 1 was only a poor , low ( town gam bler. You are professed Christians , and yet some of you ain't meeting your solemn obligations to God you ain't doing as you promised you're robbing God. "Some of you don't like this. You're ' ' call thieves. ' You're saying : 'Don't us . saying : 'If you call me a robber or a thief I'll do you. ' Well , you'd better squaw yourselves with God lirst before you start in with Forrest. _ I like to see some of you folks square in your seats , but before this service is out you'll be on your knees begiring God to forgive you lor robbing him. " Forrest then proceeded to point out vari ous ways in which church members robbeil God. Those who stayed away from the services - vices because it was not convonint , or for Lrivial reasons were robbing God. Tho.v mil promised to give ( Jed their time ami ittend the means of grace. Some stayed iway because it was too cold. "It will be hot enough for you some time. You won't complain of cold when you're icing held over the gridiron of hell anil jeing roasted. "It wouldn't do for me to bo pastor of . church , " he went on to say , "for 1 would just lire all the fellows out thai lint regular , anil soon the church woulil ire mo out , or 1 wouldn't ' have nny church. They wanted mo to join tin Missouri conierenco , and 1 suppose they Y jive mo s-onie little church a i00 ! ! job .mil the lirst thing I'd do would be to saj : o the lirst one that wasn't regular "Hero's your letter ; take it and go. ' No , 1 couldn't stand it. I believe Goi will send food to thosp who worl for him and believe in him , bill I'm afraid 1 would drive away tin very food from my mouth. I've boon tolt that 1 might get many a dollar given me if I didn't talk so plain , but if I knew that some fellow would give mo ! ? 5U if i wasn't lor my hitting nun so hard , I'd just give him one that would knock Inn and his $1)0 right on to his knees. 1'vi been told 1 mustn't ollend leading mom bers. 'Leading' members. That i- enough to make a man silly. 1 don' like this idea of having 'leading' mem bers. " "There's ono thing 1 don't like aboil the Aletliodist church. They take ii some that ain't converted. Thorn an the < o in this church that play cards am say they're Christians. How many o you wore at the opera house last night : Does that hit you ? That was robbing God. You're thieves. That's a hari name , but you'd belter be called it hen than called it in hell. " Ho then urged the business men to devote vote some time to God's service "You say you can't neL'lect you business. Some day you'll have ti lay down all your business , and git You'd better square yourselves ! Hotte lose n few dollars than your souls There's a pointer for you ! " Then ho went for the sealskins again "If you'd lay aside your bealskins , tin take the feathers out of your hats , tun ask God to take the pride out of you hearts , you'd bo better oil' . Ifallth women here were made to ilrcss just i : calico , you'd see there isn't so much dil feronee between you. I'ine feather make line birds. When in New Orlcun 1 saw u lot of southern birds , beautifir gorgeous Dlumago , 1 saw ono of thos beautiful birds alter the feathers had bee pulled oil' . It was the most onorj scrawny looking thing I over saw Some oi you who think you'r so line would look just as scrawny if yo had your sealskins and feathers ol Some day you will have to lay dow your sealskins , your featiiers , you brown stone fronts , your wealth , yon everything , and you will stand before tli bar of ( iod and have to answer the quo ; turn : VHovt ) you robbed God ? " Tn record will bo right there to face yoi God help you ! You'd better got regular. Proposed Improve in on is. Some of the city improvements whic will be moved in at once is the gradin of streets leading west to the river. Tli city council is red hot for it , and will b supported by the citizens generally , an especially those directly connected wit the properly interests on the westwai bottoms. Them is no improvement dot by the city , although paid for by tl property it fronts , which will pay as larj. a proilt to the lot owner , over and abo\ \ cost , as grades. The levy will soon bo completei Niuth aveinio graded and paved to tl river , Hroadwuy graded aud paved to tl river , and 1'ac.ilio avenue graded iir pavid from Hroadway to Ninth i > trei also avenue C graded through. Th street has a high grade , lies well nort and will make a substantial high levy i safety. Other battered streets will 1 graded up and also the cross street The value of property will now justify aud you may look out for the euiplo incut of two or three steam shovels in tl work and us many dirt carryiug scoo and trains as will keep the shovels bti y. Tiiis work carried out will coin money for those whoso investments arc now made. The council will take action in this matter very soon. It is determined , however , that such streets as have to bo extended through land not in lots must be let through free If they go at all.

George lliulio , real estate and nrgo- .tiator of loans , No. 1507 Farnam street , Omaha. Bargains in Council Dlufh and Omaha property. A New Hoom Swoeim Clonn. Saturday George Aletcalf bought a lot and put it on the market al double what ho paid for it. It was sold inside half an hour , and ho inquired who bought it only to lind it was purchased by the same per son from whom he had just bought it. Kvery traveling man , who was in oft" the road yesterday , reported the Mir rounding country as being worked up over the boom here , as heretofore prices have been ridiculously low. W. O. Wirl has purchased thren lots near the driving park. L. Simmons , special agent of the Singer machines , came in oil' the road yesterday and reports the people all along the Northwestern road as having symptoms of the boom fever , and thinks many of th"iu will invest hero tlio com ing week. Ho .says the rush for the Br.i : i simply immense , all anxious to learn of Council Blull's. One gentleman who visited the western part of the city yesterday reported that he never saw a quarter as many buggies and coaches in that direction , and all looking up certain locutions. He also re ported many as inspecting Hall's addi tion and Minim's sub-division , as well as a number around about the canning fac tory location. Several gentlemen yesterday expressed it as their opinion that real estate deals to-day will far exceed anything yet in tlie city. The livery stables were all keut busy yesterday and many nersons were showing property to prospective buyers , deals in which will probably bo consum mated to-dav. Quite , a number of strangers in the city were lookingaround and will no doubt put up homo money Uiis morning. Prof. Smith , of the institution for tlio deaf and dumb , about January 1 pur chased a piece of land for $500 , paving $100 cash down. Saturday it was sold tea a gentleman for $1,0. > 0 casli. Herman Bucrdorf bought two lots on Broadway , near Twenty-llftli street , Sat urday , for ! ? : > 00 each , and in tlio attcr- noon sold them for $100 each cash. hot 12 in K.Curtis and Ramsey's , was sold to I ) . W. Archer for ! ? 100. ; ! Lucius Wells has purchased lot 7 in block 11. Mills'addition , and . ) . T. Hart lotS in block 1-1 , Alills' addition , for $100 each. These are considered big bargains. Vic Jennings has purchased the Nelson property on Broadway on the cast side of John Short's for 2,200. O. P. Wickham is to build a residence on Seventh avenue and Seventh street in thespring. Charles Had sold on Saturday his ! > 1 acres west of the fair ground for SHOO an acre to a syndicate. A syndicate composed of Henry Kise- man , George Hudio , George Phelps , C. A. Jones , of Chicago ; A. A. Clark , Al. AlcCabc , of Aloberly , Mo. , have pur chased 2IH acres in tlie northern part of Kico's sub-division ; also fq au lM in Central sub-division , whiciffl WM platted anil placed on the market very shortly. A syndicate was on Saturday evening being formed for the purchase of nine and a half acres , and when a gentleman was asked to join it , ho went so into cestacies over the deal that ho pur chased the option on the land , which was hold until this morning for $500 and pur chased the whole tract. J. T. Hurley has sold his residence on Broadway and Seventeenth street. The book sale is attracting as many buyers as corner lots. There was a big rush at the Publishers' book sale all day Saturday. Select your books early this morning at the Publishers' book saleand avoid tin rush in the afternoon. No wonder there is such a rush at tin Publishers' book salo. Such bargaiiu were never given in Council BlullV before. Tlio Rercet Car Service. The change by which the street can make frequent trips lias been tcsloil by a week's actual experience. The re suit shows that the public appreciate ! the additional accommodations , and tin income of the company is inereasiiif : daily. It takes a little time to educate tlio people up to the realisation that thoj will noi have to wait long at any giver point for a car. They have been so ir tlio habit of walking or taking sonu other mode of conveyance , that they di not yet depend on the street cars as the ; will in u short time. Still there is already perceptible a largo increase. There i also manifest a disposition to encoiiragi the enterprise by patroni/.ingit whonevc opportunity affords. Some instances an known In which business men havi abandoned the use of their private con voyanees for coming to anil going fron their olliccs , and are now regular passengers gers on the street car lines. It will taki but Httli ) more such oncoiirauemont ti induce the managera to give still fiirtho accommodations. It is especially desira bio that the cars make trips in the night and such trips may soon bo put on'th schedule , if the present e.xpcruncn proves lucrative. Prices or AlmtrnclM , During the times of inactivity in rci : estate circles there wore so Tow abstract that the moti engaged in that husincs ; in their eagerness to get nil the busines possible , cut prices recklessly.

Tl 5 j play ig ono of Bartlcy Cauipbcll'a best , The White Cro i. Last evening Mrs. C. F- Cole , of Mt. Pleasant , la , delivered an address in St. Paul's church in the interests of the social reform , known as the order of the Knights of the White Cross. Rev. Mr Mackoy. in introducing her , gayo a keen thrust at the present rage for having re formed men for moral teachers. Ho thought that while the ministers were human , and God made use of earthen vessels still ho thought there was no special merit in having filthy vessels. Water drank from a clear' jar ought to be quite as acceptable as from one that had been in the slums. Ho thought it peculiarly lilting that teaching of social purity should come from the lips of a member of that sex , looked upon as the purest of earth , and from ono who added to the wisdom gained bv years of observation in the practical allalrs of life , was one of the mothers of Israel. Ho gladly there fore welcomed Mrs. Cole. Mrs. Cole gave a very earnest address. In beauty of diction , power of illustra tion , and force of reason ing it was a strong , inter esting appeal for social purity. She deliticd happiness as being thefulhi'ment ' of functions , or the doing those things for which one was created. She pictured the development of man , lirst the phy sical , then the mental , then the spiritual. The development of the mental and spiritual depended largely on the phy sical. Tl.o body was the temple of God. Among the % ory foundations were the appetites and passion * . The importance and Iho value of those , as well as their dangers were pointed out. Like lire they were goo.l servants , but bad masters. She pictured tlio temblo need of porno organized earnest light against the social ovils. With IKl.UOO degraded women in Chicago alone , 870 brought be fore one police magistrate in a single month , and many such startling facts on every side , it seemed that the need of prompt , united i-lVurt was urgent. A iii.'tory of tills reform movement was given. The purpose was more for pre venting the evils than of reforming those who had fallen. The demand was for the same rule of purity to apply to men as to women. The Knights of the White Cross were pledged to this. 'I hey wore pledged to kceu themselves pure and to respect women. Tlie St. Paul's Brotherhood was present in a tiody with their banners and bearing badges. This was the lirst public ap pearance of this new socie' " . Tlie only other branch organized in this state is that at Davenport. Airs. Cole desires to meet the ladies of the city at the Baptist church at U.oO tins afternoon. The St. Paul's Brotherhood will meet to-morrow evening at the rectory. Any one desiring to join can hand their names to Kov. Air. Mackey , or to any of theme mo in bers.
