Power's "Ivy Leaf , " which will bo presented at the lioyd next Friday and Saturday , is ono of the cleanest and most characteristic Irish play that has been placed upon the boards in this country. It is a not able departure from the calrcr.tures that are usually presented us Irish to American audi ences , and which arc a reproach to and cal umny on the Irish name and people. "Tho Ivy Leaf" is a drama of moro than ordinary artistic excellence , whether wo look at It from u literal y or dramatic standpoint. The scenic and mechanical effects uro truly beautiful , together with having the additional merit of originality , r.unx MiifKi : .

Tlio Board ol'Trade's Moves to Solidify Its Organization. Yesterday afternoon nt 3 o'clock the flrst meeting of the now directors of the Omaha bimrd.pl'trade was held in the directors' room in the chamber oi cim.msivc. The board , as now constituted , comprises the following gentlemen : P. E. Her , Euclid Martin , II. G. Clark , John Evans , C. F. Havens , C. F. Goodman , John Wakeflold , II. II. Mcday , Max Meyer and Nathan Merriatn. Messrs. jNlcday and Meyer were elected as their own successors , and Mr. Merriatn was elected to succeed Meyer lcllnmn. ( There was no business transacted , bat a general discussion took iilnco on subjects of interest to the board , the election of ofllecrs being postponed till to-morrow. On the list in the order of discussion was a proposition to amend the constitution and by-laws of the board , which huvo lately been found defective. The recent failure to elect three members of the board of directors at the annual meet- ins ; held for that purpose on last Saturday , left the directory powerless to elect the olllccrs of the association , whoso terms of oftlco had expired , and whoso successors should have taken their scats at the annual meeting of the board on last Monday nit'ht. There Is nothing in the constitution to war rant the olllccrs holding over until their suc cessors nro elected and qualified , especially in case whcru no successors have been elected , which was exactly the case of the board at the time of its last mooting. No successors having since been elected , the board lias been , for nearly two weeks , with out an oftlcial head. Such a state of affairs , under the circumstances , might bo expected to bo productive of trouble , but , In the present instance , it has conduced only to opening the eyes of the members of the board and imnolling them to provide against a similar occurrence in the future. For this reason the constitu tion will bo so amended ns to give all otlli'ors the expressed right to hold over until their successors are elected and qualified. Another amendment also considered was that of I ) . H. Wheeler , to obviate the neces sity of requiring a majority of the votes cast at the election of directors for the selection of a member of that body , and suggesting a mcro plourality where there are more than two candidates. Max Meyer , who has been president of the board for three successive terms , and whoso attention to the business of the association has been of the energetic and interested order , it is understood is not a candidate for re-election , though ho is being warmly pressed for the place. The names of 1' . E. Her , II. II. Mcday and Hugh G. Clark arc also mentioned for the posit ion. Another important matter which was dis cussed was the suggestion of President Meyer that a subscription membership with a fco of f > o bo established. This proposition has been made to enable the establishment of an open board , the parties availing themselves of it to Do entitled to all the privileges of members except that of a proprietary interest intho property of the association. An informal report was made by the com mittee consisting of Messrs. Chase , Goodman and Korty , to examine the advisability of securing a loan of f l',000 for the .lohn Dicrks manufacturing company. It was favorable to the proposition. Of the amount mentioned $1.XH ( ) have been secured and thei committee and other members of the board will aid in secur ing the remaining sum. The plant is valued at ? 75,0X ( ) and now employs about twenty-llvo men , though it has a capacity for 1011 men. It was also announced that the West Davenport Furniture company had decided to locate in this city , manufacturing all kinds of furniture , especially the finest kind of sa loon fixtures for which it seems thcro is lutlo demand now in Iowa. The company will erect two buildings , Wlxl'JO feet , in Mnscottu addition , and ( jlvo employment to nearly one hundred men.

A Literary Indian's Disgust. St. Louis Globe-Democrat : Bush Otter , n young Sioux Indian employed by the geological survey , has become disgusted with the government Horvico , and , fol lowing the example of his similarly af- ilicted white brethren , has resigned. Hush Otter hails from Dakota , nnd , al though only twenty-four years oil , ho has enjoyed the advantages of a good 1 education , and is exceptionally intelli gent and accomplished. Ho is said to be much versed in the legendary lore of his race , nnd on that account ho was en gaged by the survey to-preparou volume of Sioux legends. Ho , therefore , went to work last spring , roiwiving $40 per month for his literary services , and , in order to secure quiet and seclusion , ho retired to Hedgcsvillo , a little hamlet in the northeastern part of West Vir ginia. There ho mot a pale-faced maiden fair to see and fell in love. Ho lost till interest in his literary work and oven laughed to scorn his monthly sal ary. Besides , ho learned that sojno ono connected with the survey was e.\p Act ing to claim the credit of compiling the legends , and that disgusted him. Ho tendered his resignation , and us the survey had already u couple of hundred stories which Bush Otter had prepared before falling in love and becoming dis gusted , the resignation was accepted. The love-smitten dependent of a war like race has hied himself to the home pf hifc lady love , und Ira- the present he has banished , u.11' literary aspirations. EV1IAN & DEICIIES !

The Omaha Guards , orpanized only ten weeks ago , bids fair to bo one of the finest military organisations in the west , and to answer the numerous queries in regard to it , a brief account of the organization would not be out of place. The existence of the com pany is due to the efforts of W. A. Webster , late of the Detroit light infantry , and Nat M. Hrighain , a gentleman of military instincts. The ilrst meeting preliminary to organization , was held on tne evening of October 31 , 18S , ut the ollico of Potter , Webster & Co. , where a temporary organization was effected and the following ofllcers elected : President , Nat M. Drigham ; vice president , Jesse Lowe ; secretary , S. 13. Heed ; treas urer , Charles A. Harvsy. At the next meet ing held November 7 , at the same place , Colonel Henry and Lieutenant Greene of thu regular army were present , took a great in terest in the ? new company and olTorcd some valuable suggestions. The permanent or ganization of the guards was effected at this meeting and a committee consisting" " of Messrs. Webster , Harvey nnd Hriglmm ap pointed to go to Lincoln to confer with Gov ernor Tliaycr to see what induce ments the state would offer to the now company provided they enlisted as state militia. It was learned that the state would offer no desirable induce ments , and it was determined to organize the company as an independent one. Permission was granted by the governor November 14 to organize this company and it was given the name of the "Omaha Guards of N. N. G. " At first drills were held nt 1IOS Fanmm , but meanwhile the company had been look ing for more desirable quarters when they stumbled on the old rink about to bo vacated by the First Congregational society. A bet ter pluco cannot bo found in the city. It is centrally located and in every way suited for the purposes intended. This property was bought and as soon as it was vacated fifteen carpenters were set to work to remodel the building. Parlors , lockers , dressing rooms and other improvements arohcingimuloaiiu'.T Cr ; it will bo the best equipped armory west of L'nicngu. G.YiuT-.r.stie. apparatus is also to bo added. The drill room is ( iOxlCti feet and is a magnificent place for military evolutions. The floor is of hard wood. There Is to bo a 100-foot ritlo range on the west side of the drill room. The boys intend to fix everything up in first class shape , lit for the various receptions , socials and grand balls that they intend giving. The drill room is also to bo used as a skating rink for members of the company , honorary members and their lady friends exclusively. The drill of the company thus far has been confined to marching evolutions , in which the boys nro now becoming very cfllclcnt. Colonel Henry * was present at their drill last Sundaynight and complimented the members very highly on their soldiery ap pearance and the perfection they have at tained in the foot movements. Arrangements are now being perfected to secure gnus and fatigue uniforms for the company. Still later when they are ready to give public ex hibitions of their skill in drill , they will ap pear in handsome dress uniforms. A. H. ScharlT proves to bo a most efficient drill master. Ho was formerly captain of com pany H , First regiment Illinois National guards , the best drilled company in Chicago , and it is the intention of Mr. Scharff to Deal his past record if possible. Drills are held every Monday night. All applicants for membership nro first put under consideration for a month before being acted on , and it is the intention of the leaders to confine the membership to thu best class of young men in the city.
