The foundation Is laid for a test case in
lho way of California rates that will drop
upon the Union L'aclllc in a few days for
Bcttlomcnt. The Lincoln freight bureau ,
through Mr. Utt , its commissioner , evi
dently means business , nnd the plan of
work on California rates is us follows !
{ The present week the wholesalers of this
clly , or a part of them , will receive fif
teen car loads of sugar direct from the
west that are now eu route over the
Union Pacific. When tlicic car load lots
reach Lincoln the consignee's will tender
the Union Pacific company tlio regular
tUallfornia-Omaha rate , which , at pres
ent , is 00 cents per 100. If this rate is re
fused by the company then the liftcon
cars of sugar will bo roplovined and the
ptiso brought directly to the courts for ad
judication. The valuu of this shipment
is estimated to bo some $110,000 , and it
Will bo seen that it will financially bo a
case of no small magnitude as well as a
test casn. Ono reason why the Lincoln
parties directly interested bcliovo they
nro right and will win is that while the
Inter-state law is supposed to do away
with pools , that ainco April
the B. & M. railroad has refused to ac
cept car load shipments from the coast
for points along their line , Lincoln in
eluded , and this is believed to be a com
vitiation between the two roads to de
Btroy competition and deprive Lincoln of
the benefit of it shorter haul than Omaha
'on coast shipments which it would have
on goods shipped over the Burlington.
lit is also stated by a member of the
ircicht bureau here that the B. & M. is in
2J combination on St. Louis car load traf
fic to Lincoln and that the road since
April 5 has refused to take car load lots
lor Lincoln shipments from that point.
The stand taken iu the matter of Califor
nia shipments will , as before slated ,
bring the matter to the courts direct and
the case will be onu of much interest to
parties on both sides. In this matter the
bureau has consulted Jucgo Coaloy , of
the inter-state commission , nnd it is be
lieved on the outaido that the action has
not been taken without a favorable view
of it being expressed by the judge and
the commerce commission.
THE MISSOUllI I'ACIKIO ItEPLlHS.
In reply to the communication from
the board to the Missouri Pacific railway
regarding Lincoln rates the following has
been received :
ST. Louis. Mo. , Junn 25 Messrs. G. L.
Lewis and William Lee.se , Itallroad Com
missioners Gentlemen : Wo are In iccelpt of
your favor of the ICtn In relation to the dif
ferentials existing as between Lincoln nnd
Omaha , and note your request thnt tlio rates
from St. Louis and other points on this line
be made alike to both places. The conclu
sions reached by your board wcro evidently
based upon the mileage between St. Louis
nnd those points helm ; practically the same ,
and the Missouri Pnciiic mileage to Omaha ,
480 miles , being used Instead of the distance
by the short line ( the Wabash road ) , 411
rnllc.H. If rates to the two cities from St.
Louis were based wholly upon mileage , tlio
differentials now In cITect would not bu ma
terially changed. While the Omaha rate
from -St Louis Is uindo on the short line
mileage , via the W abash road , you
. can readily understand that the longer line
( our road ) , has to carry nt the same rates to
secure any of that trulllc. Wo understand
that the principal complaint of the Lincoln
merchants trows out ot additlonnf coils to
them on business from the east Into Lincoln ,
and distributed thence to the western points
over similar trafllo from the east Into Omaha
and thence to the same destination , and are
advised that at least ono of the roads reach-
Inn territory-west ot Lincoln nnd west of
Omaha Is now preparing n tar I It out ot Lin
coln which will change the present situation
and do away with many If not all of the
differences now existing to the territory
reacted by thnt lino. This action on the part
of t it conrrAiny may bo followed by the
other roads leading west from Lincoln. We
are now conferring with all the roads inter
ested In Lincoln trnlllc with n view of con
summating an arrangement which
will be entirely satisfactory to the Lincoln
people. Inasmuch an competotlvo rates
are made by agreement , the necessity of
Which Is doubtless apparent to your boards ,
you will fully realize and appreciate the In
expediency of our taking nny notion In this
matter other than by ngreemont of the sev
eral roads Interested In that trafllo If nn
agreement can be reached , or at least until
wo have heard from the other lines what
policy they will adopt. With assurnne.'s
that the subject shall bo given prompt atten
tion that thrro may bo nn early disposition
of It , Very respectfully yours ,
S. H. U. CI.ARK ,
Vice President.

WHOLESALE I'OISONINO.
A Mrs. Johnson , residing on L and
Seventh street with two sons and a
daughter , a young lady , keeps boarders.
The family and the boarders are colored
people and on Sunday they passed
through an experience that came very
nearly costing the lives of all of them ,
especially of the girl , who was not out ol
danger until yesterday. The cause was
ascertained to bu that the whole family
had been poisoned bv strychnine thai
had been placid in the family sugai
bowl in liberal < iuantties. ! A free use ol
emetics helped the family out and a dls
carded lover ot the girl is suspicloncd a :
thn poisoner , but no arrests have been
made.

The Need For a Central Atnuriunn
Cnnnl ,
Stuart K. Weld in Popular Science
Monthly for July ! Some may Btill ask ,
is a canal or a snip railway worth build
ing after ill ? liven Admiral Ammcn in
timated doubts as late in 1079 , after the
Paris uonnress , as to whether the tlmo
had comu to cut the isthmus. It may
not bo him ! to satisfy ourselves on this
point. In a report submitted to the navy
department in 1800 Ity Admiral ( J. 11.
Davis , an estimate is Riven of the tonnage
which would have used a canal had ono
been in existence , as well as tdo loss in-
lliclcd upon commerce because of its
lack. The former estimate is 3,091,070
tons , which agrees pretty well wito the
estimate of the Paris congress for the
year 1871) ) , if we assume the rate
of annual increase from 1SOO to 187U
which the congress adopted. Admiral
Davis's estimate of the loss annually expo
rlenced by commerce was if 17,5530,203.
These estimates , made over twenty years
111:0 , would bo evidently too low for 1887.
Iut ! even should wo assume that in tlio
course of tiio past twentyliveyears no
increase of trallic had occurred , a result
sullicicntly surprising would bo arrived
nt. The loss to commerce in four years
would amount to $2,000,000 , about the
cost of tiio Panama canal according to
tlio estimate of lho Paris congress. This
simple calculation shows the imoortanco
of the work. Mr. Higclow , in his report
already quoted , says with reference to
the Panama canal : "Wero all nations
to contribute towards its production in
tiny emiitablo proportion to the advant
ages they would derive from it , the stock
would be as dltlicult to obtain as the
golden apples of Atalauta. "

Custcr City ( Dak ) letter to St. Paul
CJlobo ! Reports from the Juno round-ups
thus far generally confirm the early opin
ions of heavy losses , so far as concerns
the northern ranges of Dakota , Wyoming
and Montana , and for the Central and
Southern hills the reports are favorable.
Tiio difference iu results was anticipated
by all who know the different conditions
of the ranges. Southern ranges have
not been so heavily stocked as in the
north ; the herds on the former are
smaller and better cared for in winter ;
the country , as far sotttli and cast as the
Cheyenne , benefits by being under tlio
lee of the Black Hills. There is a dif
ference of fifteen degrees in the mean
temperature of the Southern and North-
trn hills. Cattle men have received
evcro lessons on the tendency of busi-
icss toward smaller bunches , closer
icrding and winter feeding. The wire
eneo and blizzard are rovolutioni/.uig the
business.
A FAVOUr.l ) OKA7.INO COUNTRY.
There is a favored grazing country in
side the hills which , if limited , has ad
vantage of permanency , safety and rich
ness ; n favorable opening to men of small
capital. Tlio valleys and parks that make
ip over half of the Black Hills area are
ipon lands reserved by the government
'or mineral purposes , and hence not open
for pre-emption and enclosure. They
ire likely to remain open ranges for
Tinny years , if not for all time. There is
mrdly n 1GO aero stretch of it that does
not include mineral land , and except one
section in the southwestern corner of
nustor county. It has not been surveyed.
No man can got title to any of it except
iiy taking up placer claims , doing $500
worth of work in mining them , and
going to the expense of patenting and
paying $3.50 per acre , all of which would
bring the cost up to $7.50 an acre , a price
that would buy improved ranches in the
loot-hills. The small patches that are
fenced in now are held only by squatters'
title , and these are occupied by small
farmers and constitute but a small part
of these mountain parks. The hills are of
uncommon value for glazing , because of
the extraordinary nutritfousncss of
the grass , green or self-cured , the
abundance and purity of the water , shel
ter from winds and light snow and mild
winters. Stock thrives and docs not
wander far. These are not the only
ranges I have seen where il is no Dakota
exaggeration to say that stock turns out
intlio spring as well conditioned ns in the
fall it went in. Nor Is the extent of the
feed measured by the open land , for the
timbered parts nro moro or less
OHASSEI ) TO THE MOUNTAIN" TOPS.
The pine forests are quite open. Ono
can drive n buck-board for miles through
the woods whore there is no trail ; nnd
this forest is much of it covered with
grass to the roots of the trees. A not too
aistant view of these mountain slopes
at this season present a beautiful varie
gation and contrast of black-green
against n background of bright green
grass showing through the trees. The
parks themselves arc as treeless as il
some mighty police had enjoined the
rook-loving pines to "keep oil the grass"
not the only respect in which these
lovdly stretches suggest a city-kept park.
They look moro like the art of the land
scape gardner than the work of nature.
MINEUS TUUN KANCIIEllS.
It is the ambition of the Hills miner
and prospector to own a horse ranch and
settle down ns soon as ho makes a stake.
Several of tbo fortunate owners of tin
properties that have been sold here
within the past year have thus invested
their gains , fencing in a little homo plot
and letting their stock range tbo free-to-
all. You will hoar encouraging reports
of the geometrical increase of their
herds around Custcr. "There is the
best mine I over owned , " said an old
minor , pointing to a baud of horses hun
dreds of feet above us. But there are
always men of this class who tire of so
lazy and slow an occupation and pine for
the excitement of gold hunting , nnd they
will sell improvements , stock and squat
ter's rights cheap. Ono such sola his
herd at $33.50 a hcaa , calves thrown in.
Horses pay a bettor margin , but do not
give returns ns soon as cattlo. An ex
perienced horse rancher advises to buy
a bunch of laige-boned , solid , stocky
mares and breed with a small fast stal
lion like Morgan or Ilambletoniau , and
have
AN EXPEUIENCED HOUSEMAN
to break the colts to saddle and harness ,
paving paricular attention to training for
a last walking gato.so valuable for these
hill roads. He said a man oould make a
good start in the business and meet ex
penses until returns began to come , with
$10,000 capital , but ho must give his per
sonal attention to it at frequent intervals
if he does not live on the ranch. 1 can
not imagine a plcasantor climate or moro
romantic surroundings of life , if ono can
put up with isolation from sacioty. Cer
tainly there is not a moro lovely , enjoy
able spot outside of Bouquotto valley , in
the Adironflacks than this. The charms
of these valleys and advantages for graz
ing nro little known , and but few are
engaged in the business hero , except
people who came iu after gold and went
into stock "on the side , " as they say.
Out in the foot-hills there are a few
horse ranches who make a business of it.
A company of titled Frenchmen are
breeding Arab stock on the Flour-do-
Lvs ranch , out on Lame Johnny Crook ;
there areisovoral considerable horse out
fits around Buffalo Gap and Rapid City ;
and most ranches dabble in horses as
well as cattlo. But the systematic , intel
ligent prosecution of breeding for market
Is a neglected business.
FIUEMAN TO THE FOIIE.
Tito interest in tlio tournament of the
Black Hills firemen's association , to beheld
held at Load City July 4-7 , is extraordi
nary now. There are ton companies in
the association , and tlio liberal purse
offered for the free-for-all hose race will
attract outside companies. Ono of these ,
J. C. Clcland hose company , of Fremont ,
Neb. , has a record for speed that is mak
ing the local footers feel a little shaky in
anticipation. Tbo people all through the
hills are taking an interest in , and con
tributing money to , and betting on these
races with as much earnestness as if all
this training was for the extinguishment
of eternal tires for the bencgt of all of
them. There will not be much holiday
spirit in any of it forjanybodyjudglug by
the dead earnest feeling that everybody
is working up in the matter. There came
near being a bad break in the allalr ia
consequence of a plan to change the
tournament from Lead City to Duadwood ,
but when it came to a count of noses on
the board of control of Iho association ,
Dcadwood did not have votes enough.
The affair was awarded to Lead City in
a competitive bid after ample notice , and
to have sneaked it away from her would
have caused a "wiot , a wiimpus and a
wow" that would havo'givon your corre
spondent plenty of sensational material.
The feeling of rivalry between companies
and.localities fs intense enough now , and
ft will require chivalry an'd cool-headed-
ness tilei'.rry the allnlr , through without
rcadifll the riot act.
INSANITY IN TUE 1IIL1.S. '
The frequency of cases lor the Yankton
asylum hereaway la exciting comment.
Dementia is quite prevalent all over Da
kota , and the Yankton institution is over
crowded , but there RQOHIS to bo more
tendency thctcto in the hills In proportion
tion to population. Tno isolation of
ranching and prospecting , "baching , "
exposure , meager diet , nervousness In
duced by high ultttudc's.etc. , nro adduced
ns contributing causes. There may bo
special causes in the hills in the tension
of mining excitementsmul , the reaction
of disappointments as to results. I never
saw an American compitinity so intense ,
up-strung , and so little given to fun and
recreation. The fierce contest of tiro-
men , above referred to , is the Black
hill's idea of relaxation. But it is very
much the idea of'sport that prevailed
among our very forefathers , when a joust
at which a score of knights were killed
and a hundred wounded was called "a
gentle and joyous passago-at-arras. "
Dyopepsln
Makes the lives of many people misera
ble , and often leads to self-destruction.
Wo know of no remedy for dyspepsia
moro successful than Hood's Sarsapanlla ,
It acts gently , yet surely and clllcicutly ,
tones the stomach and other organs , re
moves the faint feeling , creates a good
appetite , cures hnadacho and refreshes
the burdened mind. Give Hood's Sar-
sapurilla a fair trial. It will do you
good.
IT WAS HIS WEDDlTTc NIGHT.
Amos F. Carpenter is Compelled
Through a Woman to Post
pone the Ceremony.
Providence Special t the Boston Glebe :
Amos F. Carpenter , an employe of Karl
Carpenter & Son , of this city , is just at
present in a state of mind hard to de
scribe , being in the anomalous situation
of not knowing whether ho is married or
not , and , moreover , ho will not beablo to
determine the question until the supreme
court passes upon it.
The situation is this : Five years ago ,
Mr. Carpenter being then a
widowcr.rnarricd a Miss Jennie Woodoll.
of North Foster , R. I. , and it is intimated
that ho did not enter into the contract of
Jus own free will ; but , however that maybe
bo , certain it is that ho did not live with
her long , or contribute to her support.
With thuso two facts as a basis of com
plaint the supreme court some time since
ssucd a decree of divorce to the woman.
A short time ago Mr. Carpenter con
sidering himself free from martial tics' ,
began to pay court to another lady , by
whom ho was accepted , and the marrf-
ugo was to have taken place last evening
but the intervention of an injunction
from the supreme court caused a post
ponement.
It seems that the prospective bride had
an officious relative in the government
service who was opposed to dor mam-
ago with Carpenter , and ho took stops to
stop the ceremony.
As a result of his offorts.as is supposed ,
the divorced Mrs. Carpenter yesterday
appeared at the county 7 court and asked
for a writ to stop the marriage of her
husband. She claimed.that . she did not
sign the petition for the divorce , but
when n comparison of her writing with
the signature showed-tho chirography
the same , she dcclared'that ' she did not
know what she was signing , and was
very much astonished when she read the
decree in the papers , as she did not want
a divorco. '
On her petition , a writ was issued com
manding Mr. Carpenter to appear and
show cause why the divorce should not
bo set aside. The paper was at once
given toj a deputy sheriff , and then
the only question was.fWould the oilicer
find his man before the ceremony cauin
off ?
Mr. Carpenter was'.away on an ice
route , delivering the srigld comfort , lit
tle knowing of the cold chunk which was
in store for himself , and it was not until
ho was returning to dross for the mar
riage that ho came across the officer who
was seeking him.
It is impossible to describe the emo
tions of the bridegroom to be , hut llko
n good citizen ho respected the mandate
of the court and set out for the bride's
homo to explain and aslc for a postpone
nient.

Soiuo Method * of Life Insurance Com
panies.
H. H. Gardener , in Popular Science
Monthly for July : A man may now. if
he is careful and wise in the choice of a
company , insure his lifeor , if insured.ho
may have the temerity to die , without
a fair-grounded expectation of leaving
his family n lawsuit for a legacy. He
may also bo reasonably sure that he is
not placing his own reputation ( after ho
is unable to defend it ) at the mercy of a
powerful corporation intent upon saving
its funds from the inroads of a just debt.
And I question if it is too much to say
that , given enough money , a strong mo
tive , and a powerful corporation on the
ono hand , and only a ( sorrowing fam
ily on the other , and no man over lived or
died whoso reputation could not bo black
ened beyond repair , after ho was himself
unable to explain or refute seeming
irregularities of conduct or dishonesty of
motivo. No man's character is invulner
able , and no man's reputation can afford
the strain or test of such a contest. Mil
lions of dollars have been withhold from
rightful heirs by throats of an exposure
the moro vague the moro frightful of
the unexpected crimes or misdeeds of the
bolovcd dead.
Thousands of cases never known to
the public have been "compromised , "
and hundreds of heart aches and unjust
suspicions and fears about the dead ,
which can never bo corrected , are aroused
in sorrowing but loving breasts by this
method of doing "business. " It is , of
course , of the utmost importance that
every precaution bo taken by lifo insur
ance companies to.protect the funds hold
by them , ia trust for others , against
fraud and trickery.QBut Olwlth the
agent , the examining physician , the
medical directors , andttho inspectors all
employed by , aim answerable to the com
pany represented , one or all of these
paid officers must almost , of necessity ,
bo party to that fraudf i With all those
safeguards in the handsof the company ,
if a man is accepted asa "good risk , " if
lie pays his premiums , surely his family
has the right to expect a legacy and not
a lawsuit , nor a "cqra'promiso" which
must cast reproach on the dead.

AX OliD SXOHY.
Father MoUcrmotfs Former and
Latest Attack On tlio A. O. n ,
111 tlio telegraph columns of the BEE
yesterday afternoon contained a dispatch
from Philadelphia telling of the refusal
of Rov. Father McDermott , of St. Mary's
Catholic church of that city , to say mass
at Iho funeral of a deceased parishioner ,
named Twohlf ; , while members of the A.
O. H. of which Twoulg was one , wore
present.
This circumstance recalls an episode in
the career of the same reverend gentle
man , who six years ago was pastor of St.
Phllomona's cathedral in this city. He
was a young man of exceeding piety
and ability , and had just arrived
from Pennsylvania , whcro , ns the
dispatch justly states , ho had been prom
inently identilied in administering spirit
ual consolation on the scaffold to a num
ber of tlio Molly Maguires. He was an
avowed and fearless opponent of secret
societies , and especially so of the A. O.
II. , which society ho charged in effect
with being opposed to the teaching of the
church , and , in fact , to have aided in the
commission of the crimes which had
previously disgraced the mining districts
of Pennsylvania. His attack aroused the
indignation of tlio members of the order
in this city , some of whom arc leading
and most edifying members of the Catn-
olic church. To them , the society was
nn Irish Catholic Benevolent association ,
every feature of which they warmly
supported. As a consequence , they took
l > ains to enlighten Father McDcrmott ns
o the objects of the order , going so far
us to submit to him a copy of its consti
tution and by-laws. This , however , was
without ho desirott ellect. It only
brought out a series of Sunday night
lectures in denunciation of the body ,
whilu not asserting that the members in
tliis city had connived at tlio murders
committed in Pennsylvania , he nevorthe-
'ess saiil they were members of the or
ganization , tlio machinery of which had
been used to accomplish and tlio secrosy
of which to conceal the atrocities re-
rcrred to. Ono Sunday at 10:30 : o'clock ,
n his sermon , ho took occasion to reply
to a parishioner who had sent liini
a marked paper setting forth that
Archbishop Purcell , of Cincinnati , had
admitted tlio A. O. II. to Ins cathedral
and delivered an address to them on the
occasion of ono of its anniversaries. In
reply , Father McDcrmott bitterly at
tacked tlio aged prelate by a reference
to the financial troubles into which ho
liad previously fallen. Bishop O'Connor ,
ivho was present in the sanctuaty at the
time , rebuked the speaker and twice or
dered him to make no further allusion to
the aged prolate. This led to an estrangement -
trangomont between Father McDcrmott
ana the bishop , which shortly after re
sulted in the return of the former to
Pennsylvania.
Tlio dispatch tells that ho is still fight
ing the A. O. II. There is little doubt
that members of the order wcro con
victed of some of the crimes committed
n the mining regions , and every mem
ber of the order is willing to admit this
fact. But they claim that to make the
society responsible for deeds of outlawry
committed by individuals , when tlio aim
of the association is all that is
laudable , was a mistake and an
injustice ot the greatest kind. The
Catholic synod of Nebraska , which as
sembled in the cathedral in this city , on
the first of last March , the same place in
which Father McDermott's denunciation
was made , unanimously endorsed the A.
O. H. in this state. A coincidence of this
event is found in the fact that almoit at
the time Father McDcrmott was inveigh
ing against the order in Pennsylvania ,
500 of its members m this city were tak
ing part by special request in a proces
sion on the occasion of tlio laying of the
corner stone of St. John's Catholic
church , iu this city.
To be Xaken to Secure a Quiet Obser
vance oftho Sabbath.
A meeting of the clerical Sunday ob-
bervanco association , of which Bishop
Worthington is president , A. F. Slier-
rill vice president , and W. J. Harsha ,
secretary , was hold at the Episcopal
rooms , Paxton block yesterday morning
nt 10:30. : Twelve ministers were present.
In the absence of the president and vice
president. Mr. Harsha took the chair.
After a discussion it was resolved to peti
tion the mayor and council of the citv to
enforce the state law against playing
base ball and other games on Sunday.
A further resolution was unammouslv
adopted that the association request the
mayor to exercise his authority for the
purpose of closing up dunce houses , beer
aruens , music halls and saloons on
unday. It was also resolved that the
association will do all iu its power to
secure from railway offices , banks , whole
sale houses , and all other employers a
half holiday for their employes on Satur
day , and , with the view to carrying this
resolution into effect , committees will bo
appointed at the next general meeting to
wait upon the employers of labor and
urge upon thorn the necessity of closing
their business houses on Saturday after
noon. The meeting then adjourned.
THK. LAW.
A reporter for the BEE yesterday morn
ing , interviewed a legal gentlemen as re-
regards the law upon the subject of Sun
day base ball playing. The attorney gave
his opinion as follows :
"It 1ms Deon the general Impression that
an ordinance exists prohibiting the playlni ;
or baseball on Sunday. Mr. Savldee In his
sermon pretended to quote an ordinance to
that effect. The Impression Is wrong. There
Is no such ordinance. The third paragraph
of section 3 of the former city charter ( mis
takenly quoted by the Itov. Savldgo a 3 an or
dinance ) Is not an ordinance but a state law ,
governing cities of the firnt class. Omaha Is
no longer a city of the lirst class but a met
ropolitan city nnd governed by the law
passed by the last legislature. But , oven
this paragraph quoted by .Mr. Savid \vere c It
still In force , reijuhcd an ordinance to make
It effective.
"During the last four or five years several at
tempts have been made to pass an ordinance
to carry the law Into effect , but there being
too much good sense in the council chamber ,
the attempts were still-born.
"Section 81 ot the act governing metropoli
tan cities piovldes : 'The mayor and coun
cil shall have power to provide for the punishment
mont of * * * ball game players. '
"Section 32of the same article says : 'Tho
mayor and council shall have power to re
strain , prohibit and suppress tippling shops ,
etc. , and desecrations of the Satiliatti. '
"How Is the mayor and council to do do all
this ? Is It their duty to go In a body to the
ball grounds and stop the game ? Jf they
WPiitthero they would piobably become so
Interested they would forget their
business. No , this Is not what
the law contemplates. In order
to carry this law Into elfcct the council mu t
meet In Us chamber and Introduce and pr. s
an ordinance for thnt purpose. Thnn the
mayor must slen It or the council ' 'pass
It over his veto.
"Ot course there Is a state law making it a
inlsdeineanorto play at any athletic game on
Sunday , There U also a law prohibiting
gambling , selling liquor , fast driving , prosti
tution and conducting a lottery ( even In
churches ) . Would It not be well to suppress
these higher offenses lirst. Then , after these
are suppressed , If you desire , stop tlio Inno
cent amusement of playing base ball. "
MAYOK UKOATCII.
"How about the Sunday question ,
Mayor Broatohi"
"Well , as yet , It Is in statu quo. "
"Can't say just what will be done ? "
' Not now , anyway. "
LET THE LETTEI13 WAIT.
Another phase of the Sunday observ
ance question is that referred to in tlio
current number of the Christian Hour
the homo organ of Presbyterians , in this
citv , and is expressed in the following
paragraph : . . ' .
. "Wo feel ashamed tliat. In Omaha the
churches dismiss their cohg/egntlnns
only to have them troop to the postoflico
o get tlio loiters that not only could but
should wait for Monday. Business
should have no thought on the Lord's
l.\y. The mind needs a rest , and simply
rom the view point of wise life-habit.
alters ought to bo let alouo until Mon-
lay comes and the old routine of business
3 begun. "

Viuulnls Seek for Wealth In St. John's
Now Corner Htouo.
A dastardly piece of work was pcrpo-
Tilled Sunday night by , vandals and
thieves in an attempt to carry offtlio treas
ury box deposited but yesterday beneath
the corner stone of the now colleglato
church of St. John , which was laid with
such an elaborate display of pomp nnd
ceremony. A story was rife that
the treasure hero deposited was
equivalent to a small fortune , and this , as
a matter of course , enlisted the interests
ind attention of crooks and thieves gen
erally. With pinch bars the stone wasv
displaced , being subjected to mueli do-
tocement during the operation , nnd
jadly broken in ono or two places. The
nlscrcants , however , did not stop hero
n their mad search for booty , but tore
down part of the bountiful pier , and had
t not developed when it did that
.hoy had hart all tiioir work for
lothmg , these is no tolling whuro their
conscienceless demolition would have
ended. Fortunately tliero had been no
treasure left in the stoun over night , the
icrmanet sealing having not yet taken
ilaco. Oilicer Turnbull was given thii
case , nnd after n sedulous search of iho
grounds , found a couple of drills and n
Jinch-bar , which had evidently been
'tolcn from some convenient stonoyard ,
jut no other clue to the perpetrators of
tins ugly niece of vandalism was dis
covered. lho officers , however , are upon
ho alert and will use every effort to
jrltig the criminals to justice.
Vnii Wyckon Independence.
The chairman of the executive com
mittee of tlio Knights of Labor has re
ceived , in reply to an invitation to Hon.
Charles II. Van Wyck , the following let
ter :
NiMiUASKACiTY , Neb. , Juno 25 Julius
Meyer , esq. , chairman executive com
mittee My Dear Sir : Many thanks to
yourself and Knights of Labor for the
invitation to bo with them on the 4th day
of July. I regret it is impossible to ac
cept , ns previous to your letter I had
promised to bo at Wakelield on that day.
The 4th of July cannot much longer bo
celebrated as a mcro form or idle cere
mony only to return thanks and eulogies
to our patriot forefathers , and boasting
of their glories. It is fust becoming a
reality with us as it was with them ,
Every year individual indepcmloneo is
becoming more and moro lost and
merged in the tendency to concentrate
wealth and large business interests in
corporations in huge syndicates like
Standard oil , coffee , cattle , lumber and
other pietended "trusts. " And thus the
few absorb the earnings and business of
the many nnd thereby seek to control all
other labor anil interests the day la
borer , the mechanic , the men in work
shops , stores and on the farms.
We must begin to make personal ap
plication of the principles of the Declara
tion of Independence so wo may not
pass under the yoke of a monicd oligar
chy and political bigots and schemers.
Yours , C. II. VAN WYCK.
The County Commissioners.
The commissioners worked all day Sun
day , and yesterday morning , ns n board
of equalization. They wont over a mass
of assessments , and found , in some cases ,
that lots four miles from town are as
sessed much higher than others not
half a mile from the heart of the city.
They also discovered glaring mistakes.
Ono of these is the failure to list a
a whole block that of 170 } , on the corner
of Sixteenth and Nicholas streets , which
is to-day very valuable.
Another is a similar error by which 095
lots in Douglas precinct fail to appear.
The mistakes are chargeable to the clerks
Who made the lists.
A petition was in circulation yesterday
iu the court house addressed to the com
missioners , setting forth the fact that
there is a great need of some more
azreeablo method of reaching the courts
than by climbing the eighty-
nine steps , which now load
from the slroot to the highest floor ,
and suggesting n tunnel from the Farnam
street walk nnd an elevator up the mid
dle of the building. There was no diffi
culty in securing signatures to the paper.
The Sunday Gardens.
All the beer gardens in the south end
of the city , Paul Sonf's , Spoorl's nnd
Mueller's , wcro running Sunday , as
usual , in a very orderly manner. The
chief of police has detailed Officer Turn-
bull to attend to those resorts , and ho
will hereafter visit them every Sunday.
As a consequence of this attention the
number of parents who ycslorday en
joyed the freshness of the air , the beauty
and the refreshments of these gardens
was most noticeable.
