Hen derson , and adopted by George Parker , died yesterday afternoon. The funeral will taku nlacu this morning at 10 o'clock from Mr. Parker's residence on lower Broadway. The city has an extra fountain which has not been set. It is proposed to put this at the head of Graham avenue , so that those visiting the park can easily slake Uioirtliirst. The water mains are to be extended. Fnirmount park needs water badly , and another season the com missioners purpose having a supply. In this attempt they should bo heartily sup ported. The statement that those who had raised money for the relief of Mrs. Martin had used ft for their own benefit is , it is said , too sweeping , and casts a cloud upon some innocent parties. Mr. Johnson , who lived in the sumo house with Mr. and Mrs. Martin , claims to bo ono of these. Ho says he has helped the alllicted family all in his power , and is ready to account ftr all the money which has been paid him by others. Mr. Olllcer , of the Electric Light com pany , has ordered all the necessary ma chinery and material for the enlargement of the plant and the lighting of the city by the seven masts. The machinery and material are on the road , nnd as soon as they arrive work will commence in earn est. It will require some little time to got the street lamps in active operation , but there will bo no greater delay than is absolutely necessary. Those having in charge the Chautau- qua meeting to bo held at the opera house to-morrow evening , have arranged with the pastors of the several churches for a giving up of the regular Sunday evening services , and thus allowing all to unite- in n grand rally for the speedy securing of this worthy enterprise. Those who attend will not bo bothered with any subscription papers or contribution boxes being shoved under their noses. The purpose of the meeting is not to solicit funds , but to inform the people as to what has been done in this matter and what it is hoped to accomplish. Personal Paragraphs. Ed Forest , the sensational revivalist who held a scries of meetings hero last winter , is engaged for a season at the Methodist church at Malvcrn , his work to commence in January.

The tenant , whoso name was not learned , gave u dunce the evening be fore , nnd after the company had dis persed and the family retired , the llanies broke out in the barn. Scarcity of appli- inees prevented successful effort in quenching the contents and adjacent buildings wore destroyed. The contents : onsiHted of a largo amount of hay , six horses , two mules , harnesses and farm utensils. So rapid was the work of dc- itructlon that little or nothing was saved.

A man and woman driving along North Main street yesterday afternoon Attracted some attention and comment by their peculiar behavior. While cross ing the bridge near the No. 3 hose house , the struck her companion several times with the whip , but when ho finally alighted in front of the Globe office , the blows descended fast and furiously. The castigation was brought to n speedy close by the abrupt departure of the man down bcott street , after which the woman very unconcernedly drove away. No ono of the many witnesses of the affair seemed to know cither of the par ties , und much speculation was indulged in as to their identity and the causes lending to the sensational performance. , .

A Ilonvy Farm Kir a A Sign Polls' Injuring Two Sinn A Hoy' * Head .Smashed at the Bridge Work to Commence. Faith in the Broadway bridge project was strengthened mightily in Council Blutls yesterday on the announcement being read In the BEE that the council of Omaha the ovenlng before had granted the company the right of way on Douglas street. This has been given out as the only real obstacle in the way of the speedy building of the bridge , and now that it is removed there scums to bo no reason why the work should not progress rapidly. There have boon so many causes of delay , however , that many have felt that oven if this apparently last one was removed , some new ono would unexpectedly take its place. There was such a long wait for the action of the council on this mat ter , that many who had been heretofore enthusiastic over the prospect of the bridge , began to feel that the enterprise was to die young. Yesterday , however , there was a revival of enthusiasm , and a jubilation that has not Dcen apparent for weeks. The contractors have boon on the grounds for weeks , waiting for the engi neer to give the word to go ahead with thi ? work. Now it is said the work will surely commence in oarnest. There have been several car loads of piles on the grounds , waiting for the starting order to bo given. It Is now given , and to-day the preliminary arrangements will be completed , by which the pile driving will begin Monday morning. In the construction of the viaduct on the Omaha side there will be four towers at each street intersection so that teams can drive through in every direction. To-day 'the work of excavating is to commence , so that Monday the piles can bo driven for the foundations of Ihcso columns. The machinery and material will bo put in shape also to-dav for an active work of construction. Such are the plans , and as there seems to bo noth ing more threatening delays , it seems that there is abundant ground for the feeling of those interested in seeing the enterprise move along. The members of the company and the engineer are still quite reticent. The enterprise is of such magnitude and there are so many details to adjust that they naturally follow a uolicy of keeping their business largely to themselves. Then. too , there have noon so many shouts of victory , only to bo followed by some vex atious delay , that everybody is disposed to look with doubts upon every new ray of light. It is positively known , however - over , that orders have been given as above stated , and hcncu it scorns that the work now must progress without further delays than such as may naturally arise in an enterprise of this magnitude. Wily Women. Two Sibloy women have created a sen sation by some queer proceedings. Mrs. Andrew Shorbondy and her sister , who has been living with her for a year past , were left alone while Mr. Shurbondy went to a neighbor's to help thresh. The two women walked to town about h'vo miles , and proceeded to make extensive purchases at the various stores , running up bills in all to the extent of .f GOO or $700. When they came into the stores and made their first purchases , the goods were promptly put up , as Mr. Shcrbondy had credit for almost any amount. As the women after taking packages ever to the hotel , returned and made much larger purchases , the merchants began to suspect all was not right. They held to the goods until a messenger was sent to Mr. Shorbondy , who was surprised at the tidings. In the meantime the two women , learning that ho had been sent for , hurried out of town , and it is supposed have flown for good. Mr. Shcrbondy had the big pile of goods taken buck to the stores from which they wore obtained and settled the damages. Mrs. Sherbody's explanation of her extensive purchases was that her father was sick and she was going homo ; that her sister was going to help her make her dresses before she wont. It is supposed that the two women had decided on gathering up what they could and then fit up ono or two rooms for themselves in some other place and de sert their former homo ontircly. St. Bernard's Hospital. This hospital , just started hero by the Sisters , promises to bo ono of the most useful institutions in the city. The pre liminary arrangements nro completed , and the hospital has started on its mission of mercy , but it will need hearty and generous support to enable it to develop into such an institution as this city really needs. The physicians of the city have givoa a very practical endorsement of the movement , A board has been se lected , consisting of leading physicians , who will attend to charity cases , they di viding the work so that there will bo two different physicians to look after such cases , the changes being made every two months , thus providing for a year. The board of phvslcians consists of Dr. C. H. Pinnoy , president ; Dr. J. P. White , sccrctarj : and Drs. Barstow , Cleaver. Dcetkin , Green , Hart , Iloughton , Lacy , Macrae , Soybert and Thomas. As soon as practicable the citi/.ons will bo given a chance to help the Sisters in their financial matters , and it is believed that contributions will bo readily forth coming. Thny Slight Not Soil. To the Editor of the BEE. The annual water tax of 5 mills on our present as sessed valuation of f 1,1363,879 amounts to the sum of 123,843.45 annually. In twenty years this would amount to the sum of | 550,8CO. If this city should pur chase the water plant for $500,000. pay able iu twenty equal instalments of $20,000 annually , it would amount , prin clpal acd interest , to the sum of $530,000 iu twenty years , and the amount that would bo received from private con sumers would bo more than sullicicnt to pay for operating expenses , for wear and tear , etc. The city in a few vears would realize a surplus , which could bo used for reducing the current expenses of the city many thousands of dollars po year. This is a matter that all tax payers should investigate , and the present 5-mill water tax would bo ample for the rent of 200 hydrants and rent of private consumers. There would bo no necessity of issuing bonds , and now is the opportune tlmo to purchase this plant iu the iutcrust of the many. \Viiv NOT ? Costly Curiosity. What came very near being a fatal ac cident occurred yesterday morning on the wagon dummy train just as it reached the bridge on the 7 o'clock run. W. li. Brown , of Hamburg , was return- lug from , a trip to Omaha with his aon .Albert , aged twelve , wheu. the boy , ic rder to see the bridge , thrust his head hrouch an opening between two cars. 11s father missing him shortly after , disCovered - Covered him with his head tightly wedged ( Otwcen the cars , and vainly struggling o extricate himself. When released rom his perilous position his appearance vas horriblu. Thu scalp was torn opener or a space of BIX Inches across one side f his head , and the skull was plainly vis- bio. The other side of his head was mdly bruNcd and ho was completely ovcred with blood. On the arrival of he train In this city ho was taken to the ifllee of Dr. Cleaver , the Union 1'acillo urgcon , and his wounds attended to. ioveral stlchcs were required to close lie ugly gash , but the little fellow stood t bravely , and when finally washed , ooked decidedly better. A tow WCOKS' imo will heal the wound , but ho will not arc to repeat the experiment. Coino Mnrohlnic Home.

An old sign at COS Broadway fell yes- orday afternoon and seriously injured uthcr Beroll , of IU Bcnton street , in the mploy ot the gaslight company , and C. Uedfleld. of Ilarlan. Mr. Redlicld sus- allied a compound fracture of his right houldcr and was considerably bruised bout the body. Ho was taken to the esiilenco of Victor L. Keller , where ho ecoived surgical treatment by Dr. Cmonils. Mr. Bcrcll was struck on the oad and was insensible for several min- Uo3. A long yasli in his scalp was the > nly external injury received , and RS hero wore no bones broken ho will prob ably be around in a day or two. He was attended by _ Dr. Waterman , the demo- ratio nominee for coroner. The sign vas a largo onn , covering the whole rent between the second and third lories. There are several such signs ind rickety cornices along Broadway hat should receive immediate attention icfore some ono is killed. The Cln4lii Jiaccs. Missoum VALLEY , Or.t. 7. Yesterday witnessed the close of the most success- ill fair Harrison county has ever held. The receipts wore about $ ' 5,000. Reliable nformation states there were fully 8,000 icrsons on the grounds Wednesday. To obtain the respect of the incredulous , it would bo well , perhaps , to state that iVe.dnesday was children's day. J. W. ? ercgoy , of the lilull's , says Harrison county can turn out more to a fair than fottawattamie. Jack , by the way , was starter , and gave universal satisfaction , ind while he never was so harsh with the Irivers that they could possibly take any sxi'oplionsto his injunctions , however , 10 showed by his actions that some con sideration was due to hundreds of spec- .ators as well as thu half do/.en or less jockevs. Charles Wilson , as time-keeper , manifested his usual exactness. His accomplished wife was on the grounds during the fair. Mrs. W. is a Kentucky lady and as good i judge of fine horse llcsh as her 1ms- land. In the 2:30 : pacing rare yesterday Fin- nigan , g g , ( J. D. Hey , took first money , and the 2:80 : trotting Mat Fisher , b g , John F. Fisher , took first. In the run ning race , threo-quartor dash , Cashier took first. It was rumored that this waste to have been a hippodrome and Gasoline was to come in first , but the little Irishman on Cashier was too cute for that and run the colored population on the gasoline Burner oil'the track and into the center , thereby shutting him out and giving the race to Cashier. Nobody blamed the judges , as they could not sen it. A great dcalof interest was centered in the human vu : bicycle race. The only contestants were Dr. B. F. rhilbrock , Dunlap's popular dentist , and Jay Gould Dutton , of this city. Each having a 50-inch wheel machine , the race was expected to be pretty close. Mr. Hutton took the first two fatigues ( vulgar to say heats except in speaking of horses ) easily , coming in the last time about thirty yards ahead of his compcii tor. Time 1:371 : , one-half mile dash. The weather during the week was all that every ono could desire and every body is pleased , for there was not a fight once. fto gambling joints so far as I know wore run this week. Missouri Valley is shaking off the unoviablo reputation that she has had in the past for all that was tough. No business hero this week. Everybody bent on pleasure , for although the fair hero is just closed , about half the city has gone to-day to Sioux City to view the corn paluco , and all the teachers intend going to-morrow. Superintendent Locke , of the Sioux City & Pacitic. tolls mo the train this morning , special , which is being run during the palace , and leaves hero at 8:20 : a. in. , consisted of ten coaches and had on board twelve hundred passengers. A great many who had not intended to go , have now concluded to go next WCCK if the exhibition is continued as the manage ment announce. JOHN. Suclne a Syndicate. In the district court yesterday the case of Critteiiden vs Armour , Barbce & Co. was on trial , but the close was not reached. In this > case the plaintiff seeks to enforce the performance of a con- traot.claimingthata syndicate bargained for his farm last spring , but failed to comply wlta the agreement to take the land at the price and on the terms prom ised. A number ot citi/.ons are inter ested financially in the outcome of this suit. Mining In Alaska. San Francisco Chronicle : A private letter from a party interested in mining in Alaska , reports regarding the pros pects of mines on the Upper Yukon as follows : The return of several miners from the gold mines of Yukon brings the latest advices from that distant suction. They loft Forty-mile creek , the scene of the latest discoveries , on July 14 , and arrived at Sitka on the Gth of September. The distance from that point to the mouth of the Yukon is about 1,800 miles. They state that a number of miners on Forty-mile fcrcok were making frorntl to f 25 per day , while others were not mak ing wages. It wai reported that at the head of the stream some were making as high as 1109 to 150 per day , and on a small tribu tary , in a shaft sunn to bedrock , eravel was found that yielded'JO cents per pan , 11EST MAKES AND HIGHEST GRADES OP Pianos and Organs Persons wishing to purchase instruments will find it to their interest to call on us.

Last winter many of the miners had suffered from hunger , some of them liv ing on moat straight for several months , and that scarce , as game was no plentiful in the country. The climate in summer was warm and pleasant , but consideraolo rain had fallen this season. In the winter it is very cold. Twenty-two hours of sunshine in mid summer were the longest days , and four hours of sunshine in winter the shortest. About fifteen miners were preparing to come out overland , and it was their in tention to start on July S8. The trip to the Yukon is un extremely hard ono , and many of the miners who went this spring will not pay expenses , while other will make a good thing of it. Six Kules for the Smoker. Never buy cheap cigars. There is no economy in it. If you can't alford good cigars smoke less and nnjo.v your smoke. It is follv to suppose little cigars are the best. best.You You cannot tell whether a cigar is good or bad unless you light it properly , that is thoroughly. A good cigar will not be much better than a poor one if badly lighted. If your cigar goes out be sure to blow through it as soon as possible , so thai when you litrlit it there will be no dead smoke in it. Leave the ashes of your cigar until they fall off. Your cigar will burn straighter and taste sweeter if you don't knock the ashes oil' . If you think smoking injurious to your health , stop smoking in the morning. A great many people have stomachs out of order , and no man ailing in that way can smoke before or immediately after break fast. The best time to smoke is after dinner and after supner , and straight ahead until bedtime. Smoking would not hurt a baby if this rule were adopted. Never give anybody a light from your cigar. Carry matches. A Ilartfort youngster goes to church where the concluding Amen of the par son's prayer is sung by the choir. The other night , after he had said his payers , ho produced a harmonica from beneath his pillow and astonished his mother by blowing a blast where the Amen came in , remarking : "That's the way we do in church. " There were Sixteen Methodists , six- Baptists and only ono non-professor of religion in the grund jury of Gwinnett County , ( Jeorgia , last week. Its session was open by prayer , and it ignored moro complaints than any grand jury that the county has had for years.
