Ait Unpleasant Trip.
Doctor Ellis isn't at all pleased with
his trip to Omaha and thinks that city is
too unruly. As a sample of the way they
"do up people" over the river the doctor
refers to his Saturday trip. Aa ho was
on his way to the depot in a Farnam
street car on his return to Council Blull's
two men somewhat under the inllucnce
'
" of liquor occupied the rear platform and
as a young man jumped onto the car ho
accidentally stopped onto ono of their
feet , lit ; apologized but that did not
satisfy the insulted individual so lie nit
him a crack that sent him against the
car window and into the
street. Ho then went towards
the front platform and was followed by
the drunken man's friend. The car was
full of ladies , nnd only three men were in
it. The ladies became ( tightened anil
scrambled out of the car as did two ol
the men. The man who was knocked oil
the car again jumped on and just as Doc
tor Ellis had got the broken glass from
the window shook off , he received a blow
in the head from the fellow's fist. The
follow then made for the front platforn
aftnr his assailant and away they skippec
over the dashboard leaving Dr. Ellis the
only occupant of the car.

The event of yesterday was the laying
of the corner stone of the new Catholic
hurch. The ceremonies took place ycs-
orilay afternoon. The procession formed
U the old Catholic church on I'carl street
ivith Its head resting on Fifth avcnuu. It

ivcnue , along that avenue to Sixth street ,
lown Sixth struct to the corner of Fifth
jvcntio , where the now church is to bo
uilt , mai died clear around the block
and then was dismissed in front of the
hurch. The procession was composed
f the Ancient Order of Hibernians
band , of Omaha , which played very
iieely ; two divisions of the Aneient
) rder of Hibernians , of Omaha ; the
arious societies of this city , the A. O. II. ,
ho St. Patrick's Benevolent , Catholic
Kmnnts , the pupils of the academies ,
ho members of the congregation and
Hhers.
Thorp was a largo crowd to witness
he laying of the corner stone. The core-
nonius wort ! in accordance with the rit-
lal of the church , and were quito im-
irussive , although very few were able to
tear or understand the details , Bishop
Josgrovc. of Davenport , was the cele

The ceremonies included not only the
blessing of the stone , and its consecration
bj sprinkling with holy water , but an
imposing march was made around the
entire foundations which were likewise
consecrated by the sprinkling of the
ivator.
The dodicary sermon was deljvercu by
llev. Father Nugent , of Ues Moiucs. Ho
stood on the front ot the church founda
tion and spoke in so clear and ringing a
voice that the great crowd , reaching out
in every direction , Tilling the streets an < l
sidewalks , could hear every word. It
was a wonderful discourse. Those who
witnessed the preceding ceremonies , and
who intended listening to but a fragment
of the sermon , found themselves stand
ing as attentive listners to the very
limsh. Father Nugent is ono of the
finest orators in the church. Yesterday
was one of his best cfForts _ . Al
though following a logical line of
thought , closely knitting argu
ment to argument , the discourse
was full of fervor and feeling. His ser
mon was peculiarly interesting to those
outside of the church , as it was a strong
setting forth of the peculiar text of the
Catholic faith. The burden of the argu
ment was to show that the Catholic
church , was the church , the true church ,
the only church. He based his reasoning
on the fact that any ono who believed -in
the divinity of Christ must deem it reasonable
enable that Christ would establish a
divine church. A divine person like
Christ would not establish a human
church , any more than a human person
could establish a divine churclu The
reverend father then proceeded to show
the organization of this churcn. The
twelve were commissioned by Christ to
go out into the world and preach
the gospel to every peoule.
They were made a corporation. The
charter was given them. The life of this
coruoration was to be to the end of all
time. The church was to last as long as
the earth lasted. But huviug organized
and got their divine charter it became
necessary that something cjso should be
added. This was the spirit which de
scended in pentceost. Christ in organiz
ing His church on earth meant that this
church should be the mouthpiece of God.
It must necessarily be human , but the
promise was given that the spirit shall
remain in the church to keep it from
error.
This led to the development of the
claini that the true church could Do ever
distinguishable by certain signs which
no human organization calling itself a
church could over successfully coun
terfeit. Ono of these was the
unity of the church and the unity of
doctrine. The Catholic church held to
the same doctrines vyhich were preached
in the days of Christ. These doctrines
were given to the church by Christ , and
could not bo changed. The spirit had r -
mainod in the church guarding it. Other
organizations wcro human. They looked
on theology as a progressive , and oven
doubtful science. Not so with this church.
Its doctrines did not change. They could
not change any mora than Christ could
change. The opponents of the church
criticised it as not being progressive. Jt
gloried in the fact that it clung to the
same doctrines which Christ taught.
This was the foundation of the doctrine
of the infallibility of the church. If
this" was a more human organiza
tion. a mere divinity club , this
could not be , but the church was divine
In its origin , and was the means by which
God was moulding the world.
The doctrine of the apostolic sueccs
slon was also dwelt upon. The illustr.i
tion of the corporation maintaining its
life through individual members passed
uway was again used. The commission
was handed down the centuries , and no
man could put his finger on ono break in
the chain , so that those who wcro to-day
commissioned to go forth and teach all
nations received their message by a di
rect line from Christ himself.
Another distinguishes feature of this
true church was the holiness of the
church. It being divine , indestructible
and indivlsablo. It must bo holy. It was
hero that the itrugglo arose with
the world. The doctrines of infallibility
and of apostolical succession were for
theologians , but the holiness of the
church touched practical lifeIt was the
edge of the chisel which cixmo in contact
with the rough block of marble , chipping
it into beauty. The holiness of the church
was always in conflict with the evil of the
world. Hence the church was always in
trouble , always would bo. There could
bo counterfeits made of the externals ol
the church , but the church itself couli !
never bo counterfeited. An artist rnighl
model a man from marble , but could nol
give it life. A church organization ol
human origin was like the cold statute.
God had breathed his spirit into the
church and it could not bo counterfeited.
The speaker made an earnest appeal
for Catholics to stand by the faith which
has thus come down to them through the
centuries from Christ himself. The
church being the roico of God , it should
bo obeyed promptly and willingly. As
tbo building , the corner stone of which
was thus laid , was to be the house ol
God , it should bo erected with generous ,
willing bunds. God should be honored ,
and an expression given of the faith ol
the people. Everyone should have a portion
tion in tbo building. Blessings would
followed.

Chestnut Tunes.
"Wo will now have No. 5 on the pro-
? raino , " said a gentleman in the opera
iiouse on Saturday night , shortly after
the curtain dropped at the end of one of
he acts. "I haven't missed a single
show " he continued "tlmtlms
, , played in
this house in the past year , and 1 know
ivery tune that the orchestra can play.
) nu thing nice about it is that you can
'ollow the musicians through their parts
ind bo as well able to judge if they drop
lotcs , etc. , as if ypu were n musician
yourself. Jt simply takes a little atten
tion on your part and you have the airs
by heart. ' S ce if you recognize the next
meco they play. "
Shortly after the conversation ended
.ho orchestra struck up and the word
'chestnuts" was very audible to the BKH
representative.

UNDBHTAKKKS' TAtiES.
Stories Told Ity Kuncrnl Directors At
Their Kcttnlar Meeting.
Pittsburgh Dispatch : ' ! had a funny
experience years ago , when I worked for
Mavor-elcct McCallin in this "
- city , re
marked a county undertaker.
"What was that ? "
"Why , I got paid for burying a man
twice. It was this way. A man had been
fished up out of the river and sent to our
Iiouse to bury. That night about ! )
o'clock in came two women , a mother
and daughter , named Smith , living on
the South side. They asked to see the
drowned man , and as quick as I lifted
the cloth that covered his fuco , the old
lady threw up both hands and screamed.
'That's him ; that's my poor husband. '
The young lady identified him , too , but
didn't seem to fool very bad. Tlio next
morning the family lawyer came to mo
and gave orders for the burial. The old
man , it seemed , had considerable money ;
at any rate , I worked him off real re
spectable like , and got my pay. bout
About a year later the same lawyer came
to me and says : "You ought to owe nie
$30. "
" 'Why , " says 1.
" 'Why , 1 paid you that for tmryineold
Smith about a year ago , and ho wasn't
dead. But he is readv to plant this time ;
died last night , and 1 came over after
yon. "
"Well. I went over and laid the man
out. Wlulo I was at work on him the
old iady came in and said : "Well , he's
cad enough this time , poor man. The
ight after we'd buried him before he
time walking into the room where wo
was all sitting. Ho had taken a little
too much drink , and had just got over it
and read about our buryin' him in the
papers , and Lor' but ho was mad. I
knew it was no spcrret as soon as ho
came in. But 1 guess ho won't come back
this time. ' "
"I never like to shave a corpse , " re
marked a red headed funeral director
from an adjoining county , "and if it is
practicable always like to get a barber.
About a month ago I had an old man
to bury who had died with four or livn
days' growth of beard. His limbs had
contracted terribly after death , and to
straighten thorn out we had laid a couple
of pieces of plank across him. Ho was
lying on his bed in this * way when the
barber came a big colored follow with
considerable superstition about him. Ho
shaved the outside of the face all right ,
and then had to climb on the bed , over
the deceased , to shave tno other side.
In some way his knees hit the plank
which lay across the dead man's chest
and hold his arms down , releasing both
arms. They sprnnc together like the
jaws of a steel-trap , and happened to
catch the barber on both sides of the
head. Ho gave ono long yell that lasted
till ho reached the street , and that was
the last seen of him. I had to finish the
job myself. The darky was so badly
scared that it was three days before ho
went to work again.
The following dialogue is alleged to
have been overheard at the convention ,
and was retold with considerable gusto :
Country Undertaker Do you make
any diflerenco in your own manner and
expression in conducting different fu
nerals ?
City Funeral Director Certainly. I
have three expressions ono for first-
class funerals , ouo for medium , and one
for cheap funerals. First class funerals ,
as I call them , are when the family has
wealth and social position. These people
ple are calm .and undemonstrative in
their sorrow , and I use what 1 call my
"dignified sorrow" expression n calm ,
sad look , with a white tie. I charge f 10
extra for this in my etceteras , lor the
medium class I just sling ina-sortof
"ministerial sadness" look that costs
them $5 extra. If the family'havo ' lots of
monov and are pretty shoddy , and bound
to make a big show , i use a "suppressed
grief" expression that I pride myself on.
It is really pathetic. That costs the
mourners $25 , but it's a dandy.

introduction to the nresident. " Thostran-
gcrs' eyes stuck out. Of course they would
esteem it an honor , etc. Then the
"worker" replied that he would make ar
rangements. The next reception day he
headed quite a respectable procession
and asked them into the cast room at the
white house. While there he regaled
them with stories about the president's
daily life until Mr. Cleveland appeared.
Hcing careful to head the line , ho up' ,
proachcd the president with great effu
siveness , shook hands , and tliun Intro
duced the strangers by name. The in
troductions certainly looked as though
the "worker" enjoyed the president's
personal acquaintance , while as a matter
of fact Air. Cleveland never saw the man
beloro. Of course this little episode
raised the "worker" high in the estima
tion of the newlv-founiT friends , and for
several days afterwards ho fairly reveled
in their hospitable attentions. It is hardly
necessary co add that none of the officials
at the executive mansion are familiar
with these facts. As soon as they learn
them some steps will be taken to pro
tcct visitors from this imposition.

Chicago Tribune : "Can't allow that ,
my dear sir , " said a brakcman on one of
the Wabash lines the other day , rather
sharply to a passenger who was trying to
crack a pecan on the end of the car seat.
The offender , a small man of quiet dc-
meaner'looked up nnd remarked that he
was not hurting the seat , he was ham
mering on cust-iron.
"I can't help that , sir , " said the brake-
man. "Supose we let everybody crack
nuts on the car seats ; don't you see it
would deface them ? I tell you it won't
do. You'll have to stop it.
"I'll pay for all the damage I do , " said
the little man , bringing his knife handle
down on the nut again.
"You'll get out of the car if yon don't
quit. That's what you'll do , " quoth the
exasperated brakoman.
"Oh , no , I think not , " said the little
man , "I'll try to put up with the injury
to the car. I can stand it , " and ho
handed the brakcman u card inscribed
thus :
