The Br.K has already made public a largo part of the proceed ings that belong to the public. Among otlior things that have l > een carefully considering is that of gambling in viola tion of the law. Indictments have been found against half a dozen or more , and what is rather unusual , they are against the leading gamblers of the city and not against the small fry. The papers have not been served yet , and there seems to bo quite a feeling that the olllcers are rather dilatory in .serving them. A remark of that kind haying been made to Colonel Dailey , district attorney , ho replied that , bo that as it may , when the cases came into court the people would bo satisfied that at least one olllcor was honestly endeavoring to have the law executed , and did not stand in nwe of a gambler even if he was wealthy mid possessed of political influence.

RELIGIOUS SERVICES TO-DAY. the Onml > lei-.s Touched IJy the Flre-lllmMi Over I'Ycuku H .Ml nor .Mention and Pc Another Unfortunate. Yesterday morning about 8 o'clock William McLaughlin , a section man in the employ of the Union I'neillo rail road compan-y was struck and killed by a switch train in the yards west of the transfer. Switch engine No. ll/VJ was backing up about n dozen freight cars , and the man was walking toward the train with his face to the ground when hewasstruuk. The morning was \ery cold , and the deceased had his ears cov ered , whichimdonbtedlv prevented his hearing the approach of the train. The testimony of W. T. Butcher at the in quest gave the only account of how the unfortunate man mot his death. It was as follows : "I was the first man that saw him. I was running along on the ground on the south side of the track and had hold of the last car. When 1 l'u > t saw the man ho was not over half a car length away from me. Ills head was tied uj ) and 'ho was looking toward the ground. Jle was wiilking in the di rection of the train , moving very slowly. I signaled the engineer to stop , which he did as soon as he could. The car struck the man on his head myl was thrown back. lie fell and was dragged. It was the second car that ran over him. I ran and told the engineer of the accident. The body was found on the south side of the track , two cars ml two wheels of the third having sted over him. " J. Murphy , engineer , and Charles TigliMniui , fireman , of switch engine STO. 115' ) , testified that they did not see he man , but stopped in from five to light seconds from the time the signal vas given , running about a car length jefore stopping. They said the train vas not moving over two miles an hour. The coroner s jury , composed of U. B. iVestcott , J. E.

An Incipient Itlnzi1. At about 10 o'clock yesterday morn ing an alarm of lire was turned in from box 111 at the upper end of Uroadway. Tlio department responded with their usual promptness , but found that the lire , Lewis Hammor'b residence neai the eastern city limits , wtib lee far from the nearest hydrant to bo reached bj their hos-o. As the llamcs had obtained but blight headway the hoys wore able to conquer them with a few pails ol water , and the use of picks and axes. A pan of hot iibhes had been sot outside the door and the strong wind had blown some sparks against or under the biding and the tire had worked under the lowei lloor for some distance- before discov ered. It is a wonder that the house was not consumed , as the wind wni blowing a gale at the time. At a roeonl meeting the city council relocated six' teen hydrants , mid one of them Is to bo placed near Mr. Hammer's residence , but It earner near being a case of locking the door after tile steed was stolen. The damage done to the alarm wires by the wind the proceeding night had not been fully repaired and there was con siderable uncertainty among the o who heard the bell as to the location of the lire. Both circuits were broken for a short time , but prompt work bv the superintendent soon put everything in good running order. Mr. Brugger , of E. M.

" Signs were blown down , outbuildings over turned , trees uprooted and havoc raised generally. In the country , haystacks were blown away and wagons taken visiting to neighboring farms. During the gale a largo tree near the No. 1 hose house was blown down , and in its fall struck a telephone polobreak ing it otT about live feet from the ground. Everyone of the thirty-live or forty wires connected with the polo was broken , and for a time telephonic con nection with the southern part of the city was completely shut oil. By noon the linemen had the wires all working , but the greater part of the day was con- sumed-'beforo they were all back in their places. A perch forty feet from terra flrma on a telephone polo was anything but a pleasant position yester day , but it was where nmnv of the boys had to bo the greater port of the day. Wires were broken in several parts of the city , but with the exception of two or three hours' inconvenience in the morning there was scarcely any trouble , and many genuine blessings 'were in voked for the company whoso wires saved subscribers a trip in the wind and dirt.

Now York Sun : The spectacle ol Christian church services going on in one end of a moderately sized double room and pagan rites in honor of n heathen idol in the other end is ono ol the odd features which Now York's cos' mopolitan life presents. Both services are conducted with great earnestness , The Christians sing hymns and pray and their preacher takes his text fron bible , ana teaches Christ and Hin crucified. The pagans ten feet JIWJM bow down before a gorgeously gilde ( shrine and make their prayer ; to a very hideous and pudgy god painted on rice paper , and b.i olTorings of wine and orange peel am : other celestial delicacies before him They likewise burn innumerable in cense tapers before him and candles o scented wax , and they ask his opiniot with reverent solemnity before the ; take any important stop. Both congro gallons arc in entire and friendly ao cord , and go on with their respectiy < rites with courteous caution not to dis turb ono the other. Just how this curi ous speetaelo would have impressed ou respectable puritan ancestors it is no dilllcult to guess , and any one who want to see how it allects him individuall ; can do so on almost any Sunday by call ing around at No. 18 Mott street.

The projectors are men of means , anil , by tlio way , I am glad to notice that two of the largest proprietors arc residents of your city. There is u lack of cfTusivo enthu siasm but no lack of ( julet , energetic work. The location of the lake is a point in favor of the unileitaking , situated onlv three-fourths of n mile south of the city limits and on a Hue with the extension of Main street.

Taking a com parative distance it is nn actual fact that the distance from the business portion of the city is the same as the distance from Washington nve , via the motor in your city , to Lake sticet. Already I learn that from .10 to 75 line residences will be erected on the shores of the Lake before Juno 1 , 183. Many of the best citizens of Omaha nro becoming interested mid have purchased lots.

I dropped into the treasury yesterday and looked at the workmen who are en gaged in constructing the new vault , writes a Washington correspondent of the Savannah News. The treasury itself looks like a tomb. It has great sombre columns down each side of it , and the doors of its basements arc so cut that they look as if they we're dug out of a solitl rock. Everything about it is massive , and it makes me think more of the Bank of England than any other building 1 have seen. It is made in the shape of a hollow square , with wide tiers of granite walls running around u court in the centre. It is in this court that the now vault is being built. Thick walls of brick and cement rise within and the vault will bo above and not below ground. Its interior will bo cut up into cells walled with iron latticework tice-work , and the workmen are now riveting the iron bars composing it together. These bars must bo very strong , as the wcightof the silver which is to be put in the vault will bo im mense. There was a portable furnace blazing away within the vault to-day and four men wore carrying rod-hot rivets and sticking them through the holes which had been drilled in these iron bars. They wore then riveted by the pounding of a heavy hammer , while a man held an iron mallet against them at the back. Each of those lattice-work walls require 2,500 rivets , and it will take more than 100,000 of those rivets to fasten the iron-work of the vault to gether. The vault is to contain $100,000,000 , which is such nn immense sum that few- people can comprehend it. It will give some idea of it to know that its weight will be 3,580 tons , or the weight of 35,800 men of 900 pounds each. Think of the heaviest man you know and it would lake 35H)0 ( ) such men to weigh as much as does this silver. It would take seventeen freight cars to carry it , and it would take a train a mile and a quar ter long to transport it. Its weight would bo so much that six locomotives could hardly haul it , and if these dollars lars were laid out so that ono just touched the other they would made 2,305 miles long. If they were put into a floor , edge to edge , they would carpet ton times the area of theonpitol or more than thirty acres , and if they were piled ono npon another they would reach much more than 1,500 limes as high as the Washington monument , making a solid column of silver more than 177 miles high. A million dollars is no small quantity , and whoa you pack $100.000,000 into a vault it has to bo as- strong as stone and iron can make it. To rob this vault will be a physical impossibility. To tunnel into it one would have to go under the whole treas ury building , and ho would have to drill through a lloor cement and chilled stool before ho got to the coin. The slightest noise would bo sure to bj ( hoard , anil the movement of a single bag would cause such a racket as to bring the guards down upon him instanter. Nc attempt has , 1 think , over boon made te rob the United States , treasury , and tin safeguards about it are so strong thai none but the craftiest of men woult think of trying it. A Champagne ICxplosion. St. Paul Globe : Two olegonth dressed ladles and a gentleman , attired in the height of fashion , occupied a box at a theater yesterday afternoon.
