Jersey City Heights , N. J. The contracting parties were Mr. Henry L. Boo-so , of Omiilm , Neb. , and Miss Emma Mcincckc. Mr. Charles Mctz , of Omahawas present and acted as one of the groomsmen. The company was very largo and many valuable and useful gifts , includ. ing a beautiful upright piano , were presented to the bride. Many handsome presents were also received from friends in Omaha. Numerous telegrams of congratulations from Omaha and cablegrams from Germany were received during the evening. After the wed ding reception the happy young couple started , amid a shower of rlco and good Xvishcs , upon un extended southern trip , ex pecting to reach Omaha early in March. THE riTU.s of the Academy of the Sacred Heart at Park place evidently believe that nothing Is farther from the true spirit of lent than moroscnoss. Their February pro gramme of literary nnd musical exorcises shows that the founts of inspiration on that pleasant hill-top is fur from being exhausted , nnd the "evening with the Italian artists" was a most enjoyable one. Without enter ing upon the controversy about the right of nrt criticism , these young ladies struck n true note in showing that good pictures need neither explanation nor defense , and that to enjoy a tine picture one need no more be able to paint it than to enjoy a good dinner ono must be able to cook it. The appended pro gramme gives the title of the essays which indicate the character of the work.

Thirty representative business men of Omaha met at the chamber of commerce last evening to perfect the organization of the Union club. Dr. Miller presided. Considera ble time was s ] > cnt in discussing the best methods for completing the organization of the association. Mr. C. * J. Green strongly 9 advocated n strictly legal method of proccd- 9 uro. Ho insisted on the re-adoption of the articles of incorporation nnd the publication of thirty days' notice In the newspapers of the incorporation of the club. This ho thought necessary to make amends for the seeming haste of the first meeting. This brought out considerable discussion as to whether such procedure was necessary. The threatened interminable dcbato was suddenly checked by Mr. Thomas Kllpatrlck arising and suggesting that as the club was a social ono it might be well to commence by being pleasant and avoiding unnecessary dis cussion. Mr. Frank Colpetzer then moved the adoption of the articles of thn incor poration , bearing in mind that this action was a reconsideration of all previous action. This motion was car ried and the articles wcro unanimously adopted. The temporary officers were re-elected for the permanent organization for the coming year. The constitution and by-laws wcro then adopted. A business committee was adopted consisting of Messrs. Frank Colpet zer , John A. McSbauo , Fred Gray , J. J , Brown , Joseph Barker , C. V. Gallagher , Euclid Martin , Herman IContzo , H. T. Clarke , Thomas Kilpatrlck , John S. Collins , J. B. Kitchen , Thomas Swobe , W. A , Paxton - ton , C. B. Rustin and T. C , Bruncr.

ECHOES FROM THE ANTE-ROOM Items of Interest to the Members of . the Secret Orders. ATHRUSTATGENERALCARNAHAN John H. Cotton Payn His IlospeclH to the Head of the U. H. H. I'-Mtx- oiiic Items Dolnga of the Odd Fellows A. O. U. W. Coltoii oi > Cnruahan. Some time ago Major General James R. 2iiriuih-.ui of thu uniform rank Knights of Pythias , wrote to n member nf the order in the suspended jurisdiction of Pennsylvania , deliuing the relation the SirKnights of Penn sylvania were entitle. ] to maintain in the "present unpleasantness. " In this cr > rmnuni- cution General Carnuban said : "Oar obli gation binds us to loyalty to the Supreme lodge ; to it we owe our existence and not to any Grand lodpo. * * * Maintain our good standing in the uniform rank by main taining your good standing in your subordin ate lodge and the Supreme lodge. " Later the general determined to pay a visit to Scranton , Pa. and the 1C. of R. & S. of Scranton lodge , 203 , wrote to tlie grand chan cellor , John H. Cotton , enquiring whether Knights belonging to jurisdictions outside of Pennsylvania have a right to be admitted as' visitors on the S. A. P. W. now current In Pennsylvania. It seems that ever since the promulgation of General Carnahaii's opinion as to the duty of members of the uniform rank , the grand chanccllo'r of the suspended jurisdiction has had a stick iu heal for the gallant head of Pythian Sir Knights. Hero was nil occasion to use it , and Mr. Colton appreciated the opportunity. Replying to the Kcranton 1C. of R. & S. , Mr. Colton said : "They have not such right without our permission , nor can they honorably seek admission on a P. W. , thu legal use of which they deny. The major general is an adversary of the grand jurisdiction of Pennsylvania. Ho has issued orders , us I urn informed , insulting to our knighthood , by insinuations of infidelity to the grand lodge. * * * Our order cannot be transformed by orders , mandates , Incan tations or churms. Our Pudisha may be un egregious enchanter , but ho cannot by the sprinkling of loyal water , or the mumbling of false ritualistic spells , make us < ] uit our propcrshape nnd assume any vile , uuknightly form his injurious fancy might disport itself by putting on us. Knights of Pythias , at ull events In Pennsylvania , where the order will survive any decadence in other places , are knights errant and militant , whoso mottoes are far holler words than loyalty , and to whom death is preferable to serfdom or degrading - grading discipline. 'I love the military ; who docs not1 ! Yes , but what troops arc we to have ? Shall kuighta bo converted into janizaries , mental troopora , or underling camp followers , minions of stilted power , or pupiwts of the baton of some military mar tinet ! "To return to the discussion of the S. A. P. W. It might well be that if the major gen eral deemed the S. A. P. W. now current in Pennsylvania illegal he could not honorably use it , even to do us harm. But if , as is said , he is coming anionj ; us , ho Unovn his own virtue best ; Observe this : No one is en titled to admission on the S. A. P. W. cur rent unless ha gives it as the legal 8. A. P. W. of the term. Under the present circum stances a lodge has the right , nt its discre tion , to exclude any person from a hostile jurisdiction. "If the major general comes here to advo cate the dishonorable ideas he is propagating , using the uniform rank as far as It will sub mit as an organization antagonistic to our grand lodge , he should be expelled from any lodge room in which he might be found actIng - Ing in that wny. The dishonorable overtures and temptations to which th uniform rank has been subjected have already caused the indignant resignation of our sitting post grand chancellor as an aid-de-camp of the major general's staff , and no other true knight will submit to the baseness of being used as a weapon against his -friends. The uniformed knight,1) of Pennsylvania are men of nooler pirit. , " _ . . ' ' ' Ruhoe.1 _ , , * , KribTost : LOUOB 'No. 1M , I. O. O. F. , has decided to build -a lodge hall.

"The weight of the steel , " said Dr. Dobaussot , "will bo eight and one-half pounds to the square yard. The total weight will be 2(10,000 ( pounds. This does not include the ear and other apparatus. The weight of air within it would bo 720,000 pounds , or 400,000 pounds greater than the weight of the vessel. With only one-half the air exhausted from the chamber , the weight removed would bo 860,000 pounds , or 111,000 pounds in excess of the weight of the shell , giving , therefore , an ascen sional force of iity tens.
