It Is said tliat tlio president vcto'cd tlio till ! providing for n public building at Lynn , .Mass. , because l.ovoimg , the representative from thnt city , refused to vote to sustain the \ptoot the pension bill.

Ho hat a bill appropriating SI,100,000 for n public building at Detroit , which will go thopicslilent lor tils signature this week anil Maybury Is very much afraid It will bo vetoed , Friends ot tlio Administration and especially ofllclals at the pension olllco nro trying to bolster up the veto by disparaging theiuvidcnco generally presented In pension cases and are libeling pensioners in general. They are circulating all manner of stories. Intended to help the president In his veto. A pension ofllco official Is Interviewed In to-day's Capital ( administration organ ) , and ho says : "i don't see the necessity or a de pendent pension bill or any other , for the laws are loose enough now to gl\o nearly , every man who can show honorable service n pension. I have been In the dopaitmcnt now for seveinl jrars and I could enumerate scores of cases that have came under my on n notice that 1 knew were backed by fulso all ! davits. These cases are mostly those whoso pensions are for diseases contracted lu the service. For Instance , an examiner t.ad a claim the other day from n soldier who applied several years since tor a pension , claiming ho had contracted kidney disease In tlio service. Five comrades swore that the cl.ilmaut was a solid man , frco from disease when he entered tliu army and contracted the disease for which hn claimed a pension in tlio service , while ten good ncighbois made affidavits to the effect that he had , to their personal knowledge , boon a sufferer from the disease ever since his return. These affidavits were corroborated by a physician's atlidavit , vIiich Htated that ho had attended the claimant for five years for that disease orslnco the physi clan's residence In the town. Five boards of examiners , each board composed of three competent physicians , making tlfteen , certl- lied that ho had no signs nt all of the kidney disease. Tli.it would Indicate that the claim ant's affidavits were false. But that Isn't nil. As ho couldn't got a pension tor kidney dis case , ho wrote on to the olliccr , hinting that It wasn't kidney disease that ailed him but ihoiimatlsm. It took him nearly twenty joars to find out that he had contracted kidney disease In the service and about n month to ascertain that it wasn't disease of the kidneys but rheumatism that lie had sufteted from. Now , all ho has to do la to furnish evidence that ho has applied as to the other complaint and it tliu oxamlnlnir board ccitllies , lifter nn examination , thnt lie has rheumatism , 'ho will get a pension , while all the evidence Indicates that ho is nol entitled to it at all. " "Doesn't tlm law reach these men and can't they be indicted for perjury" was uskud. "The government would have a nretty big job on Us hands If it tried It As I said , any unscrupulous man who served in the war can get a pension and lots of them are now regu larly drawing money trom the government to which they aie not in any manner en titled. " COAST DKFHNSKS AND CHUIflttllS. Men In congress generally believe thai about $3,000,000 will bo appropriated foi n w war vessels and about an equal amount for coast defenses.and along with this prediction the UKK coirospondcnt hears much talk to night about men-of-war , hteel cruisers , djua- mlto mins , war , etc. At the room of the house committed on naval affnlis Is now ex hibited the working model of an Interesting new torpedo boat , the invention of General llL-rdan. who organized and commando 1 a corps of sharpshooter ! ) in the union army during the late war. This new vessel for attacking men-of-war and preventing the blockade of our coast cities is callet tlioJiordan torpedo boat. It is a vessel of very high speed , smalt dimensions , simple construction , wonderfully effective in its re sults and settles the question of coast defense The torpedo boat attacks Its victim "bows on" and throws torpedoes from cither bide of the boat underneath the man-of-war , explod ing by contact on the bottom of the latter , do Htroying It nt onco. The torpedoes me Jlroil from brei'ch-loadlng cannon mounted at the Bide of the boat In a vertical position , two 01 more on n side. A steel vrlra cable is attached at ono end to each torpedo and the other end to the hews uf the boat , so that when tired , the torpedo describes acurvo In Its movement through the water underneath tliu man-of-war , the radius of which Is tlio length of the wlro cable. By the means Indicated the Iron netting which now protects all ships of war ot Ktiropcan nations from the attack of the torpedo Is en tirely circumstanced und no longer offers a barrier against such moans of destruction. This system has the great and nnsurpassei mlvantu'0 of going beneath the not nnd ex plodinc against tliu bottom of the vessel , tlm weakest point of defense. A proposltloi submitted to the conference committee on the fortification apprnorlatlon bill comprehend' ' ] ttiu building of 100 djnamlto guns for sea toast and harbor defense , tun of these to bo iilnccd ut each of tliu ten prlnclna ports of the United Slates , am the suggestion wai made tlm If deilmblo the gnus could lie built nt proba bly every one of the oltios for the defense of which these terrible destroyers were In tended , thus distributing the labor and also the cost of the machinery and construction , Tlio proposition embraced in theconstruction of the guns U to throw respectively 200 , 400 , 700 , and 1.000 pounds of dynamite with ac curacy a dlstnn roof two miles. The suc cessful operation of anynneof these weapons would literally cuuso the most powerful of warships to disappear from the face of thu ocean. There are other propositions em bracing dynamite gun i equally ulatislblo. JTWIU. IMT.llKSrTIIK DOCTOIt.

The Improvement was very general , extending to all classes of stocks and bonds , nnd was the result of a combination of causes , prominent among which were the strength of Bismarck In the German election , the foreign purchases of securities which followed the same , the appioaehlng end of the piuscnt congress , tlio sudden w eakness ana decline in forulcn ex change , which , nt picsent nt least , piccludcs all Ideas ot gold export ; tlio settle ment of the long pending dispute be tween the reorganisation committee of the Texas 1'acllic und the ineome bondholders ; thu fatornhlii traffic statements of various ro ids. nml a lather moro disposi tion among outsiders to trade in tlio market.

Some of the old lenders on the long side of account once moro took tin active part in speculitlon , and bv their manipulations stim ulated the rise in the sliaru-llst , which tanked from 1 to4JC points. There were periodical reaction * , but these , as a rule , were quickly followed by rallies1. A.S the upward movement gained momentum the bears became very quiet and did little else than cover their shorts.

During the da > s and nights of the fraction of a week remain ing to the piesent session ot congress the senate will give Instant attention to confer ence reports and geueial appropriation bills whenever any of them shall make their ap pearance ; and oveiy effoit will bo put forth to finish necessary legislation bctoio nc\t Friday noon. The maiqrlty hope that It may still bo found possible to' avoid the necessity for a called session ot the Fiftieth congress. Miscellaneous Mibjcctb ot legislation which will piobably lill up the spare moments are put down In the caucus programmes as follows : The labor arbitration bill , the 'land grant forfeiture bill , the bill lelatiug to lottery advertisements passing tluouvh ; tlio malls , bills to quiet I Mid titles , the Des Molnes land grant bill , the bill authorlliif : suits against the United States bills for the adjudication of private land claims in cer tain states and territories , the international copyright bill. Senator Miller will call up , probably on Monday or Tuesday , the house plciiro-uncninonl.i bill. Senator Ingalls will seek an opportunity to call up for action the bill repealing the limitation to the arrears of pension act , and Senator Van Wjck will ask the senate to pass the bill relating to the dis posal of abandoned military reservations under tlio homestead law. In the hotibo the programme Is to push the appropriation bills to completion by giving them precedence over all other business , and little general legislation is expected dining the remaining days of the session.

Clmroli , Yostcrdny. Tlio South Tenth Street Methodist Kiscopil ) : cliurclt is enjoying a good do- trrco of prosperity. Thcro Imvo been : ic- ccssions every week since the that of hist October. Eighty-six hnvo united during that time. According to the report of the treasurer last Sabbath morning , nil cur rent expenses nro mot to date. The course of lectures inaugurated last Thurs day ovenlnp by the Hov. Ur. Dotweilor , promises to bo ono of the most remarka ble in the way of talent over given in this city. city.The The sermon by the pastor , Kov. T. C. Clcndcnnlng , yesteulay morning , was founded upon Romans , ivt15 ; verses : " 1'or what snitli the scriptures , Abraham believed ( ! od , nnrl it was accounted unto him for rightt'ousnes-s , how to him that workcth is to the reward of grace but of debt , but him that workoth not , but be- lluveth on him that justilieth the ungodly. his faith is counted for righteousness. " Ko man desires the reputation of a liar. To bo false is to open the door to all that is uvil. The word , honor , friend ship. integrity , honesty and oath of the tlm false man arc of no value. All lying lips are an abomination to God. He is the God of truth. Ilo wants men to know and fool and acknowledge that fact. To question God's word is to forfeit His favor. To trust Him fully is to inherit Ills salvation. Faith in Him is the one , only and all sullicicnt condition of His approval. I wish wo might get a few facts con nected with this scripture clearly before our minds. 1. Christ alone could redeem the world. Hi ) alouo could make it right forGed God upon anj- condition to pardon sin and save the sinner. 2. It took God -1,000 years to prepare the world for the com ing of Christ , and yet through all those years men were living and dying. y. If those men. living before Christ's incarnation could only bo saved through Him , it was but right that they should have a condition of salvation that they could understand , although tlmy miii'lit not understand the reason or the foundations upon which that condition rested. 4. It is proper that the conditions of salvation for the same fallen race be the b.uuo condition liquor all dispensa tions of its boint : ; and if God desires the salvation of men , the condition must be ono with which compliance is not dilli- cult. 5. God's salvation , being a frco. gift , the conditions of its reception must be of such nature as will in themselves exclude tliu possibility of merit or purchase upon the part of the saved. All of thusp proprieties , requirements nnd necessities arc met in the one condi tion of "bclioving God. " Abraham believed God. He could un- derntand that. That belief implied an en tire surrender of hitmolf to God. That being true. God could for Christ's sake accept Abraham , although Abraham knew not or had but imperfect views of HIP coming Alcsinh , There was the bamo believing heart in Abraham that there Is hi saved men to-day. "Believing God" implies the cons ont of both will nnd intellect. The will cannot torce the intellect , the intel Icct cannot compel tiio will. Intellectual assent to the truths of Go is to be obtained by examinations of ovi- dunco. The want to find God Ho is iicro ro- vcaled , The want solution of our own ' being , our surroundings , experiences and destiny- is hero ci ven. The want , moral , peace it is here prollbrcd in such a manner that we can test its reality bi personal experiment. These lines of evidence must couvinco the intellect , for nuiti are compelled to huliuvo tilings to bo what they heo then ) , feel them anti know them to bo , whether they so will or not. The consent of the will is to bo ob tained by the use of that moral po > vor with which God has endowed every mem ber of the race , believing God excludes merit aud accepts the frco gift ; pelievmg God makes righteous and secures the great salvation. _ AT TRINITY CATHEDRAL. ICov. Dean Gardner's Sermon On Sin , Tiinity Cathedral was lilled almost to its utmost capacity at both services yes terday , In the morning , tliu nttemlauco of the Brownell hall girls , who occupy special seats within the choir rail just outside , the chancel , and the supple mentary choir sitting opposite them , gave a specially full appearances to the building. At tlio evening service , the vast congre gation was fully two-thirds men , The musio by the surplicod choir of voices , assisted by the Mendelssohn quartette and a chorus of twenty voicca vvassupeib. Hardy , wo venture to say , has the simple , majestic music of the church been better rendered in any part of the west. The anthems by mmby , Gounod and Warren were ele gantly rendered. The sermon in the morning was by the deau upon the apostolic rite of confirma tion. In the cveninir the dean preached on "Sinj" text , Proverbs xiv 9 : "Fools nmko a mock at sin , " Sin is a subject specially adapted for Lenten discussion. It is pro posed to make this topic the subject of every sermon during Ixut : , "Sm mid Its Remedies. " First was shown the evil and malignity of sin in its effect on human beings. Tito alms-house , the asylum , the sick-bed send up paUiotio voices preaching its evil con- sequcncos. Tottering , dethroned man hood on our streets has the .same story to toll. Then it is sin also whioh makes the pages of history such doleful reading ; not tears , bloodshed and wasting peat | ICKCOS , but sin on th roucd higher than the thrones of kings and princes. Then conlumpluto the price that was paid for tlio redemption of man from sins nothing short W tfio sacrifice of the Son ot ° I i i Uut where docs fein como fromt Two theories or hvpothcscs prevail. 1. The pantheistic. God 19 in everything ; every evil thought , wet d ] deed. Consequently no ono is to blnme ; God is responsible. 2. She Dualistle or Oriental theory thnt two forces ; gojod and evil , Imvo been and are abroad in Jho world ) evil Is asso ciated with matter nnd good with spirit. So n man may be saved in his soul while his body is full of sin. But the bible tenches that God nmdo the creation , giving Him the power of choice a will aud ho , chose evil or ho dis obeyed , thus bringing sin into the uni verse. Contemplate man with an Inherited fondcnoy to sin besot with temptations of the evil ono. What shall bo his attitude regarding sin ? Personal antagonism , assisted by the poocr nnd stieimth of God through Jesus Christ. Ho is strong aud able to dn- fend and save us.

Now Ilrnnch of tlio Union Pacific. The cili/.ons of Ogalalla are elated over the prospects of a branch of tlio Union Pacific from Ogalalla to the North Platte river valley. A corps of survoyora is now at work on the proposed line. A short time since , at a citizens' meeting at Ogalulla , a committee consisting of C. M. Scarle , II. L. McWtlliams and M. M. Ncevcs were appointed to visit the ofli- cors of the Union Pacificat Omaha to call their attention to a very available iputc from this place to the North Platte liver valley. The committee was pos" soused of a survey of the route to the summit of the divide between tlio Plattc rivers , allowing what is considered a comparatively light grade , aud also showing to the company a saving of about thirty miles of what would bo aimplv a parallel liuo by starting from Ognlallu rather than from a pro posed point several miles cast. Upon this information General Manager Callavvay Informed the committee that a survey should be made , and that if a route is found that will require no greater grade than about iifty fwt to the mile , it undoubtedly would bo adopted , as it would bu a great saving to the company. The present survey is supposed to bu the result of this visit. C. E. Wayne keeps teams at his branch ollico in South Omaha , to show property to parties going ( l out on the Dummy trains. < > A New Gil's London Telegraph : Experiments wcro made last iliglit at. tlio Marlborough gallery - lory , Pall Mallf with a now system of gas licnting invented by Dr. Von Wclsbaeh , of Vienna. Tbe picture gallery , which belongs to Mr. Colnaghi , was lit by bomo lamps , containing 'apparently an electric light similar to that usud at the Savoy theatre. In reality , however , the light employed was that of ordinary gas raised to a point of incandescence by a process which the Viennese inventor has pat ented. There could bo no doubt as to its sunerioiity ever the ordinary- light in bringing out nil the details of the pictures on tfie walls , and should the expectations formed of it be rtalizud , it will success fully rival electricity as an illnmin.int. of power aud brilliancy , for which the latter has so long been pre-eminent. The olTicml description , states that the light is produced by "placing witiiin the flame of an atmosp'horicor Dunscu burner a mantle or hood of cotton net or webbing which has been previously steeped in a solution containing oxides of the elements zirconium , lanthanum and some other bodies. " The mantles last from 800 to 2,000 hours and can bo renewed at a small cost. The inventor asserts that not only is a bettor light obtained by using his burner , but that thcro is n saving ot gas , which need not be of tliu best quality for the purposes ot incandescence. The de scription concludes with the statement that tlm "average consumption of each burner is about two feet of gas per hour at the pressure of nine-tenths of an inch and the average illuminating power may be taken at about seventeen candles , showing an ollicioucy of about eight and a half candles per cubic foot of gas con- sumcd.
