"Universal Christianity"
It was not n Jnrgn nmllcncc , but it was
ono attentive ami earnest , wliiuli listened
to the ruinarK.s of Hcv.V. . W. 1'alnior in
the city hall last uvcmnir. Mr. Palmar ,
it might be .stated , is a Christian
preacher. HP was invited by Kov. C. U.
( iiilliver , 1) . D. , pastor of the First Pres
byterian clmruh. of Hiiiglnimplon , N. Y. ,
to lill the pulpit during the ubsonco of
Dr. ( iiilltver upon a much needed vaca
tion. He preached live or six sermons
which attracted great attention because
of their unexpectedly broad and liberal
tenor. Wlinn Dr. ( Jnlliver resinned his
pulpit he touk occasion to take is-
MIO with Dr. 1'aliner upon some
of the hitter's deductions , and
the result was a newspaper
debate of over two weeks , one reverend
gentleman occupying the columns of the
leading ninniinir dally one Jay and the
other on the following morning. The re-
Milt , as far sis ponular verdict wus con
cerned , was that Mr. 1'almcr had , to use
n common phrase , decidedly "the best of
it. " Yet he was not voted orthodox
enough to occupy a Presbyterian pulpit
permanently , and ho has meo then
( eight years iijro ) been preacliinti m vari
ous cities without special ecclesiastical
recognition.
Last night Mr. Palmer presented his
views of the needs of the age in speaking
upon the topic of "Universal Christian
ity. " He declared the teachings of the
Hible to be intended for the guidance of
nil men. He said that Christ died to
show to sinners of every nationality and
every color that lie loved them all. He
einnliasi/.ed his belief and his faith
in the pure democracy of the gospel of
Jesns of Na/.areth , and asserted that
forms , and creeds , ami symbols , had no
part in the real salvation ol human .souls.
When the man or the woman or thu child
learns that the essence of Godhead is
truth , and fait ness , and charit.v. and gen
erosity , nnil patience , nnd gentility , then
is the light of the Spirit shed upon them.
Mr. Palmer will remain in Omaha per
manently , and he contemplates build
ing up here something such a church as
Prof. Swing preaches to in Chicago.

Vacating tlio Basements A New
Hcliool lOtc.
The board of education's committee on
buildings and property has been bn y
during the vacation to get rooms in read
iness for the vacation of a number of
basement school rooms at the beginning
of the spring term to-day. The commit
tee has rented Toft's store room on
Saundcrs street , in which has been fitted
mi three rooms for the relief of the Long
school. An addition has been built to the
old lirownull hall , thus giving two add
itional rooms at thu Lcavenworth street
school. The use of a church has been se
cured for the relief of the Lake school.
As yet the committee lias not been able
to secure any room in the- vicinity of the
J/ard school for the purpose of vacating
the basement in that building. As thu
resolution ordering the vacation of the
basements was imperative , some other
arrangements will have to bo made for
accommodation of the students who have
been aticnding thu basement school at
the Izard until a suitable room can be
secured.
The Georgia avenue school building
will bo ready for occupancy to-day and
will be placed under the charge of Miss
Lillian A. Littlelield as principal. This
is a line eight room building which was
commenced nearly a year ago , and was
contracted to bo ready for occupancy
last December. Owing to some change
in the plans the delay of four months
was occasioned. At present but four
rooms of the building will be occupied.
Secretary Conoyer of the board of edu
cation , is still confident that the present
members of the board have been legis
lated out of ollico by the now school law.
lie has secured the opinion of sonic of the
best attorneys of thu city who coincide
with his views.
The extension of the city limits ab
sorbs two school boards , that of West
Omaha precinct , and that of Qnaley's
district. v

Thu funeral bolls tolled mournfully
yesterday and the sad requiem was sung
over the last earthly resting places of
three estimable ladles who were done
with life's fitful fever and had entered
into the blessed sleep with which death
had kissed their eyelids down.
Mrs. H. J. Saxo , the wife and mother
who has made herself so beloved in re
ligious and social circles , was made the
subject of a most eloquent and feeling
discourse by Hov. Mr. House , of the First
Methodist Episcopal church. The edifice
was crowded with sympathising friends
of the bereaved husband and alllictod
„ sons , as well as with mourning friends of
, the deceased. The lloral offerings were
very profuse , a full carriage being con
voyed from the church to the cemetery ,
besides the ( lowers which decorated the
casket.
The obsequies over the remains of Mrs.
Minna Siemon , daughter of Hon. 1'red
Met/ , were observed at the residence , 805
" \ irginia avenue. The lloral tributes
wore profile , consisting of a n-nnber of
largo and beautiful pieces. Fully two
hundred and fifty mourners were in at
tendance , and those who followed the remains -
mains to the grave occupied thirty car
riages.
Mrs. Kosa Glllan's funeral was ob
served at the Woman's Christian associa
tion rooms , 1COO Farnam street , Kev
Harsha , of the First Presbvterian church ,
ollicinted. The burial , as with the other
funerals , was at Prospect Hill.

Slack vn. .jump Coat.
Cheap fuel is ono of the chiuf factors
to thu establishment of it manufacturing
center. Water power is seldom found
whrre the supply bat all timessulliciont ,
us shown at Minneapolis , where the largo
( louring mills have found it necessary to
ndd steam power as well.
Omaha is the natural distributing pol nt
for the largo bcctlon west of us and the
question arises , why should not Omaha
become n manufacturing point and sup
ply this largo and growing territory. The
cost of/Hul is the principal objection ad
vanced , which we will endeavor to show
is not wtdl taken.
Chicago has become an important
nmnnfncturlng point without the advan
tage of as cheap fuel as Omaha can ob
tain , when wo cons ! lor slack or coal
.screenings , for thu following reason ; The
Illinois coal la found in such thin veins
as to render It necessary in order to mine
the coal to stoi > in the mutter adjacent to
the coal , which consists principally of
jjrc clay , soaptonc HUI * wlute , thesb in
combustible substances , the ( ire clay nnd
f-oap.stone , being line as well as much of
the slate , go with the screenings , so that
thu slack coal mined near enough to Chicago
cage to be utilized by manufacturers is
about one-fourth IncombiHtiblo matter ;
consequently its use does not prove
an economy over the lump coal.
The coal deposit running south
erly through Iowa. Missouri , Kan
sas and the Indian territory , Is
found in veins so thick ( from M.X to eight
feet ) that the coal is mined within it-elf ,
so that what is commonly termed the
slackwlueh ( is the richest part of thoco.il
that bleaks oil' from the lumps when
being mined and moved about ) consists
of a larger Percentage of fuel than the
lump coal from the same mine , as the in
combustible portion of the coal ( which
forms clinker when burned ) is harder
than the coal itself , running in minute
veins or streaks through the coal , there-
foie , does not break up in handling to the
same extent as the soft noal. It will bo
seen from the foregoing that the objec
tion to the line coal screenings ( called
slack ) in Chicago does not hold good
in Omaha. Thu impottancu of this
difference will bo manifest when
you consider that this slack coal can bo
secured in this market for about one-half
the price of the lump coal from the same
mines , and furthermore when it is found
that the same quantity of this slack coal
will do even more work than like quan
tity of the lump. Wo may be a little in
advance of most of our realtors in this
last statement , as we recognize the fact
that most , if not all authorities , have
el.tiined that slack coal will not produce
as much heat as t lie same amount of lump
coal , but present appliances have over
come the dillicnlties in burning slack
with the same , if not hotter results , than
lump coal ; in fact English companies are
now formed for burning line coal on
ocean steamers , even grinding the lump
to a powder and feeding it to the furnaces
by means of a steam blast , and thus dis
pensing with stokers or liremon , thus not
only saving in help , but it is claimed
showing better results from the same
amount of line coal over lump.
Our aim in this article is to show that
the great'objection , cost of fuel , so often
cited , docs not hold good as against
Omaha's becoming a manufacturing
point , for better fuel can be secured here ,
by utili/.ing slacU , than in Chicago at
from fifty cents to one dollar per ton less
cost to the consumer. As far as the UEI :
is concerned it proposes to burn slack
coal under its boilers and give its readers
the benefit of the saving.
When coal is mined in Omaha , as wo
trust will soon be the case , the gain in
u ing black will be much greater , the
difference in price increasing the nearer
wo approach thu mines.

of the Wyoming council several sessions ,
last evening at the Pacific depot , " said n
gentleman who sometimes drops into the

as they shook Mr. Quinn remarked : ' 1
suppose you are glad to bo through an

How It Works on Cnttlo.
Hon. A. V. Qulnti , of the firm of Heck-
with Quinn , of Wyonlng , crossed his
legs in the rotunda of the Paxton last
evening and said ; "Yes , this inter-state
law may bs all riant for you fellows hereon
on the .Missouri , but it is different with
us who raise cattle out in Wyoming. It
means a raise of .f'5 a car for us from
Wyoming to Chicago" .
"What wilt bu thu effect of that ? " was
asked.
"Oh , simply that the price of cattle
will rise in Chicago , or all of Wyoming
cattle will stop in Omaha.
1 think it will bo Omaha.
Omaha is bound to become , in time , and
a short time at thattwo or theo years
thu greatest fresh meat market in the
world. The truth is that with corn at
ten cunts a bushel , as it will be under the
increased freight rates of the inter-slate
law , wo , in Nebraska and Wyoming , will
have to fatten and kill and pack our
meat. The outside world will then have
to pay us what it is worth. "

READY.
Tliis is our first spring season in Omaha , we are now ready to show
not only an entire new stock of Spring Clothing for men , boys and
children , but also that we are -selling our entire line for less money
than any house in the United States.
Our large assortment of Spring Overcoats surpasses anything ever
exhibited in Omaha. We call special attention to our $5.75 and $7.75
line. The latter is trimmed with silk facings and satin sleevelinings.
The prices of these will surely surprise everybody. The better grades
which do not exceed $15.75 in price are as good as you get at the cus
tom tailors and for which you would have to pay at least $35 for.
Our offerings in Spring Suitings , of which we have an enormous as
sortment , will give us a wide reputation , for we have marked them to
sell 25 per cent less than any house in the city , and particularly to
our strictly All Wool Men's Suits at $5.75 , we challenge any house
in the country to compete with us in price.
Commencing to-day and continuing the coming week we will offer ,
200 Pleated Suits for Children from 4 to 13 years for $2.95. Also 400
Children's Knee Pants at the nominal price of 25c per pair.
We mean to give yon all the details regarding t7te clothing we sell
Those ivJio traded with us last fall have long since become convinced
thai ive are not misreprescntatives as to styles qualities and prices.
All goods are marked in plain figures and at strictlv one
price at the
