city , and Frederick M. Wheeler and
Mary 12. Harmon , both of this city.

Bwitcb tracks are laid , and the founda

the whole will be complete.
Yesterday morning , at half past five ,
the death angi-1 entered the home of
Mr. and Mrs. K. ,1. Xniiemacher , and
took their only child , Kinily , a babe of
fcovcn months of age. The disease was
membranous croup and the little one
was ill only a few hours. The parents
liavo just moved into the city and the
atliiction is more sad from tlio fact that
they are among strangers. Hut surely
the > < o who have buffered a like bereavo.-
meat will extend a hearty sympathy.
The funeral will occur at 10 o'clock this

mime ill" they cried. She replied :
"That you help me thrash the editor of
the \Vorld. " They all grasped hands
and raising one band to heaven sang :
"Wo swear it. " Tlio audience ap
plauded until the singers returned to
the stage and bowed.

To-morrow will t-c tlie full completion
of the electric light towers , painting ,
straightening and all. The dynamo
that is to run the tower lights is now
being used on the 12 o'clock lights , as
the armature of the regular dynamo was
burned out the other night , owing to a
broken wire making a short circuit
witiiin the machine. The damage
will amount to nearly JCOO. A
new armature baa been ordered and
'
it in expected hero in time to have the

j month. The new engine is on the road
! and is expected daily. Tlio new order
' ' of things will make a great cbango in
the illumination of the city. It means

Chief Mullen yesterday arrested t
man by the name of Woodburn , win
was indulging in a "wild west" per
formance at the Tremont house. Wood
burn was arrested last Christmas foi
shooting a man through the arm , bu
I managed to got clear. His trouble yes
I ] torday was with the same man , and bu
| ji | for his timely arrest there would prob
nbly have been more bloodshed , as hi
was armed with a revolver and billy
which be seemed anxious to use. It 5 :
exceedingly improbable that he wil
luivo an opportunity to further indulgi
his war-like propensities until after tin
holidays' . Such realistic demonstration
of the wild and wooly west are no
appreciated in this city.

COBBLER DAY IN THE BLUFFS
Thanksgiving Generally and Appro
priately Observed.
SERVICES IN THE CHURCHES.

.Minor Mentions.
They All Gave Tliankn.
The day of our national thanksgiving
was very generally observed. During
some portion of the day the most of the
business houses in the city were closed.
Keligious services were held at the
Broadway Methodist and St. Paul's
Episcopal churches. At the former the
congregations of the Baptist , Presby
terian , Congregational and Methodist
churches united. Each body contrib
uted its quota of worshipers , and the
auditorium was crowded to the doors.
Prayer was offered by Dr. Cooley , of
the IJaptist church. lie thanked Ooil
for the bountiful harvests , national pros
perity , protection of church and state ,
and for the signal punishment which
had been visited upon tlio.se whothrough
the spirit and teaching of anarchy hud
sought to destroy our institutions and
our civili/ation. Dr. Crofts , of the Con
gregational church , read a scripture
lesson from Isaiah.
A beautiful song service was rendered
by the quartette choir from the Congre
gational church , constituted by Mrs.
Wnusworth , Mrs. Ward , Prof. McDor-
mid and Mr. Wescott. The solo and
quartet , 'INoarer My God to Thee , " and
the duet , "I Know That My Kcdeemer
Lives"wero especially line.
The Uov. W. II. W. Uees read the
proclamations of the president and
governor. Ho then introduced Dr.
Phelps , of the Presbyterian church , who
delivered the sermon , selecting for a
text the words , "Praise ye the Lord. "
"I am not here to preach or you to lis
ten merely"said the speaker. "Wehavo
gathered hero to praise God ; to respond
to the feelings ot our hearts ; to give
thanks for the mercies we have re
ceived during the past year. American
citizens all over the world will remem
ber this day and join with us in its de
votions. 1 wonder if the o who have
gone to heaven from American homes
will not add to their ascriptions of
praise to Him who liveth forever and
over a tribute of special thanksgiving
that their loved ones loft on earth have
been so blessed.
This day has been set apart for
thanksgiving and praise to God , and
not for the exaltation of our government ,
its institutions and people to the
heavens. This would prostitute the
day and debase this hour from its in
tended meaning. Wo may with joy
think and speak of our lofty mountains ,
hills and plains ; our buried treasures ,
our gold , silver , petroleum , etc. We
may speak of our magnificent stretch of
coast , with its beautiful bays and har
bors for tli-j protection of our immense
commerce ; of our grand lake system
and our magnificent waterways. We
may speak of the intelligence , refine
ment and culture of our people ; of that
wonderful intercommunication by tele
phone , telegraph , etc. , which binds all
our people intoonebody ; which reaches
across oceans and seas , and writes the
purpose and design of life and law upon
tlie hearts of all men.
We can bo but one people one coun
try. Look at our physical union. The
Mississippi belts tlio continent , and our
hills and valleys stretch away to the
east and west to hail the rising day and
bathe in the effulgence of his departing
glory. Our position gives us a political
unity and thus it must always remain.
We may be glad of our free institutions ;
of our religious interests ; our skill and
our industries. Wo may speak
of our government and glory
in the advantaged it confers
upon us , its children , and wo
may bo thankful , from the bottom of our
hearts , and beneath this spirit in speech
and song that anarchy cannot despoil or
rob us of our heritage. In this day of out
cry against our government we may
well speak in honor of a government
which can defend itself against the at
tacks and invasions of a foreign foe.
The inllucnco of our acts upon the people
ple across the water is wonderful in fa
vor of universal liberty , and the pro
tection of our people in the exercise of
their rights and privileges vested in
their citizenship. "
"Hut in all these things is not our
strength nor the elements of our pros
perity. " He ( the speaker ) referred to
nations which have acquired promi
nence and became the rulers of the
earth and have passed away. "They
forgot God and died. Our national
danger lies in the same direction. "
Tlio peculiar weakness of our people
were dwelt upon at length. AVe are
ono nation made up of many nations.
People with every possible shade of pol
itical opinion and religious belief are
hero , and from them must come a "peo
ple whom e ono in interest anil effort ,
this oneness to bo the iiiaiatainance of
our constitution and laws.
Lack of space prevents a fuller report.
The sermon was able and was the echo
of the sentiments of every liuart loyal
to American institutions.
Services appropriate to the day were
held at St. Paul's. The sermon by the
rector , Uev. Mr. Maclccy , was eloquent
and characteristic of the day and occa
sion.
"The Musketeers. "
To-morrow afternoon "Tho Musket
eers" will bo repeated at a matinee , and
will doubtless have a third good house ,
as the audience that witnessed the pre
sentation on Wednesday evening was
even better pleased than on Tuesday
evening. The performance was not
, above criticism , few are. But when it
is taken Into consideration that the
whole thing was managed and carried
through by the young folks of the city
it is the general verdict that great credit
m
< is relleoted upon those who took the
3
3nl several parts. Perhaps what was criti-
nlh cised the most was a timidity mid ap
es parent fear that the opera would not bo
ar wull received , but it was a decided
aral change from the "wedon't care whether
10 you are pleased or not. we've got your
10 money" air of some of the professional
t r u p that have occupied the snino
stage. The singers evinced nero confi
dence the second uight than
on the first , and this was in sc
much | an" improvement. The choruses g
were rendered in n spirited lively man-
.tn ncr , and were verv eajovablo especially
"Tho Ologios" and "Confers Out
Faults" by the pupils at the convent
is-
isbo K-hool in the second not.
bo Among the -oloists Miss Roll nn Marie ,
ed seemed to bo the favorite , though Mr ,
tt > . Judboa as captain of the Uuil Muske
10 teers , divided the honors with her ,
as Misi' Nellie Hatches , as Simono tin
in \ \ aitivas , pleased the audience by hoi
ly acting.
One of the most enjoyable feature !
was the excjlk ( > nt orchestra compoted'o !
young men under thu direction of .M iss
Koblnson. with Prof. Bnctens first violinist
linist , and Miss Olllcer presiding at the

The Chinese Will Come.
There will bo an entertainment at the
Frst Baptist church to-morrow after
noon and evening that will be both
amusing and Instructive. It will bo
given by Chinese students , and It is the
intention to give n correct idea of Chi-
nc o customs , religion and styles of
dress , to correct many erroneous Im
pressions regarding their people and
country , and to assist In the great mis

The gang of loafers who have put in
much valuable time for the past few
weeks watching the pavers will now
have to Hud a new attraction to help
them while away the hours. The last
of the paving was finished yesterday
and the work will now rest until spring.
The idea occurred to Judge James yes
terday that as the work was about fin
ished there should bo some distinguish
ing feature to celebrate the occasion.
He borrowed a dinner pail from one of
the workmen and covered a block' with
it. The "silver plated" block was duly
laid and the men passed on. The at
tention of the inspector was finally
called to it and ho admired it to the sat
isfaction of all , but decided that "al
though it was very valuable , the specifi
cations did not call for any such mate
rial , and he should bo compelled to re
ject it. "
Tlio work just completed has cost
the city about $00,000 , but it is money
well expended , for the paving is
strictly first-class. City Engineer Tos-
tcvin pronounces the work on Wash
ington avenue as well done as any he
ever saw. Park avenue is the only one
included in the contract that was not
paved and that will bo done as soon as
tlio weather will permit in the spring.
Proposals for next years paving are al
ready advertised forand it is hoped that
the standard will not fall below that of
the season just closed.

The Pacific house always sets a good
table , and this is ono reason of its popu
larity with the traveling public. But
yesterday tlio Fergusons fairly outdid
themselves. Their tables fairly groaned
with good things , and two or three gen
tlemen from where "tho sweet breathed
kino roam o'er the llow'ry mead , " who
undertook to eat clear through the bill
of fare also groaned before they finished
it. The BKK force and all employes of
