There is nothing which ndds to the
metropolitan appearance of n city so
much as the presence large and ele
gantly appointed retail eslablishmonts
in the various branches of trade. This
elty is Indeed fortunalo in this regard ,
her retail stores comparing favorably
with thosoof any city in the country , nnd
Uio fact that Omnhn h s readied that
iwrlod in her existence when she can
attract the attention of the largest firms
in the United Stales is a source of con
gratulation to the cillzcns. The Inlcst
acquisition to the retail circles is the
wealthy and successful firm of Drown
ing , King it Co. , of Now York City.
These gentlemen have secured the
beautiful rooms at the southwest corner
of Douglas nnd Fifteenth strcels , which
they hnvo remodelled nnd handsomely
filled up nt a cost of nearly $ -5,000 ,
every cent of which was spent for ma
terial and help right In Omaha. This
room is 80x 11 feet and has a continuous
glass frontage of 125 feet. These show
windows have aback-ground of mirrors ,
Jind throughout their vast expanse they
present n beautiful panorama of finished
garments which nro a true index of the
innmmolh slock within. The interior
of the store room is tastefully arranged
into departments , and presided over by
young men selected from the best talent
in their line in Omaha. Every ono of
them are Omaha men. ,
Last Thursday occurred the formal
opening of this palace clothing store ,
nnd from the crowds who attended it
the proprietors must have boon pleased
if not Muttered.
This is Iho eighth retail store estab
lished by lliis house. They now have
their manufactory in New York city , a
wholesale house in Chicago , and retail
houses in e.xeh of the following eilics :
Philadelphia , Cinclnnali , St. Louis ,
Milwaukee , Kansas City , and Omaha.
The Omaha house , while it is the last ,
is the equal of any of their retail stores ,
nnd is appropriately named The Day
light Clothing Store. This fact alone
hhould secure tlio confidence of the pub
lic , showing their willingness to bo
closely inspected. Their slock is en
tirely now , not an old garment in it ,
and put up in the latest style. A few
words about the great house cf Brown
ing , King & Co. will bo of interest lethe
the reader. Some years ago Mr. Henry
W. King and William C. Browning
founded the present firm of that name.
Sinca that time they have increased
until to-day they are Ihc largest manu
facturers of clothing in tlio world.
An idea of the magnitude of
their business may bo gathered from
the following. They keep on hand at
all times $ " > 00,000 worth of piece goods
and trimmings , and cut an average of
8,500 garments per week. They turned
out liU > 7.000 garments in ono year and
paid for labor alone $ 'J(10,000 ' ( in 1887 ,
their sales for that year aggregat
ing the enormous sum of $0,000,000
This city is lo bo congratulated upon
the acquisition of a firm such as Brown
ing , King & Co.
A IJKAUTIFUI * BUILDING.
A Monument to the Architects nnd
Builders ntul n Tribute to an
Enterprising Citizen.
The hnnrtsomo two-story and tenement
just completed for Mr. T. C. liruncr at
the corner of Snundors and Michigan
streets is attracting a great de"al of
favorable comment , blh on account of
the owner , Mr. Brunei1 , ns well ns the
architectural beauty nnd unusual line
workmanship all through the building.
The basement corner is very neatly
finished with closols and all sanitary
arrangements suitable for a barber shop.
The first floor is given up to four well
lighted store rooms. The upper slory
Is supported by massive stone piers ,
thereby doing away with the necessity
ol iron colums. Entrance to the four
lints on the second floor is gained by
means of Iwo slairways lo n common
hall lending lo private halls for each
Hat. The six rooms in each of these
flats are very complete in the matter of
closets , bath rooms and in fact every
modern convenience. Heretofore tin's
class of buildings have not been a great
success on account of the interior ar
rangements , but Fowler & BoindorIT ,
the architects , have solved that dilllcult
problem in Mr. Urunor's Hats. So well
arranged nre the rooms nnd conven
iences that Mr. Brunei- has had no
trouble in routing the whole building
At a handsome rental. The walls are
built heavy enough lo allow another
story to bo built on , which the owner
will probably do at no distant day. Mr.
Urunor also contemplates build
ing nn exact duplicate of
his present building south of nnd nd-
ioiuing , covering half of the entire
block. Henderson & Parish , the con
tractors , hnvo done first clnss work
throughout , the building is n beauty
and completed to Iho very day called
for in Iho contract. Mr. Brunei- feels
highly elated with both his work nnd
his architects , Fowler & BoSndorfT , who
succeeded in gelling the building built
for a lew hundred dollars less than the
original estimate furnished before bids
vroro received. While this is nn un-
xisunl occurrence , Messrs. Fowler &
BoindortT congratulate themselves that
Biich bus been the cnso with nearly
every building designed by them
this season , and they have done a
largo amount of work , among which arc
the Colosoum on Twentieth street , the
mammoth Morrinm building in Council
UlufTs , 100x200 feet , four slorics , the
largest building Iji the BlulTs. They
have also done a very successful busi-
nees for the Mutual Investment com-
puny , who have built so limny first-class
houses this year , ns also the Missouri ,
Kaunas and Texas Investment company ,
who have built fine houses in St. Louis ,
Kansas City , Sioux City , Gnlvcslon , and
this year in Omaha. Messrs. Fowler &
iJelmlorll's business has grown to such
huge proportions that they are con
stantly looking for employees , their
dikes at 150 Farnam st. being crowded
with draughtsmen and other employees.

of TUB UIE : The Herald of October 25
makes the assertion that John H. Hayes

fered Iwo lo ono on McSlmno. John U.
Hayes spoke lo n larger audience than any
democrat in Knox county this fall , and I will

that McSlmno will bo elected governor of

nnccd Dealers' Statements.
There came to Tun Bur. office yesterday a
KUO rumor of a continuation among the
larger coal dealers to boycott smaller fry.
A now firm on Burdctto street near Eight
eenth was mentioned as ono of the victims
and wns found to consist of two young men
from the country near Council Bluffs. The
name was Carso & Snapp. They are occupy
ing n small frame structure , partly filled with
hay , grain nnd other feed. Mr. Carso ex
plained their trouble with the coal men :
"Wo are running a feed store but we
thought we'd handle coal too. Wo went to
C. B. Havens & Co. before we started and
they agreed to sell us coal , but after wo
opened up they refused to do so because wo
had no trackage. Then we went to 11. Mc
Clelland & Co. and they also refused to soil
to us. We're young fellows right from the
farm , and we're sort o' going to
school in business. Wo don't want
to go into the coal business too deep
before wo learn more about it. Wo tried to
get trackage of the railroads. They would
sell , but wouldn't lease it. We'ro going to
handle coal even though the Omahti dealers
won't sell it to us. Wb'vo got the stuff to
buy it with and have ordered u lot from the
mines , although it will cost mote than the
prices made by Mr. Havens. "
"Mr. Carso's statement is partly true and
partly not , " said Mr. Havens when called on.
"Whei : he came to us he bald ho was going
to open u regular coal yard on the Belt line ,
and wo agreed to sell him coal. I even told
him of two yards ho could rent , nnd sug
gested that ho might in that way try the
business without making a very big invest
ment. Ono of the yards was near his pro
posed location. He learned that ho could
lease the place until next spring for $40 a
month , and 1 advised him to take it. When
ho opened a feed store in an out-of-the-way
place without a trackage or a coal bin
I did not consider him n regular
dealer and refused to sell him , The jobbers
have had an agreement for ten years as
long ago as wo were in business not to hell
to a middleman unless ho is a regular coal
dealer within a reasonable construction of
the term. It is not fair to regular dealers
with big Investments to encourage a broker
age business among men who may not have
n dollar invested. If Joe Burner should
oicn ) a coal ofllco over there in his block , "
pointing across Farnam street , "I would not
KOll him a pound of coal unless ho had track-
ago and a yard. It is the policy of dealers to
discourage the corner grocsry business , be
cause it is subject to nouses that rolled upon
the legitimate. Look at St. Louis and Kan
sas City 1 The grocery stores buy by the
ton and sell by the bushel at exorbitant
rates , often twice the dealer's prico. Two
or three years ago a man bought
and paid for 700 pounds of coal , carted it on
and sold it for half a ton. The complaint
fell upon us , though we- knew nothing about
the third party to transaction. As to a trust
among the coal dealers , the only ono I know
of is up there , " and ho pointed to a card on
the wall bearing the no-pay-no-coal announce
ment of Omaha dealers.
"The coal dealers of Omaha are a whole-
souled lot , " said Mr , McClclland , "and are
accommodating to each other. Thoj ? have no
organisation , but it is an understood policy
among them to discourage Uio handling of
coal by persons who aru not regular dealers.
Wo have dozens of applications every
year from corner grooors nnd others to
take orders for coal on commission , but wo
put them off with the statement that 'thero
is not enough in the business and wo can't
afford to.1 I don't see'why this particular
case should have been magnified. Wo will
soil direct to the consumer or to regular deal
ers , but not to brokers. There is no trust
among the dealers. About the only agree
ments wo have are whcii the price of coal at
the mine or the rate of transportation
chancrs. Wo thrm ngreo on n scale of prices
that makes it uniform throughout the city. "

Bronson Howard's clover saliro upon Wall
street life , with Hobson nnd Crane as its
cheerful exponents , will be the attraction at
Boyd's ' opera house Monday , Tuesday anil
Wednesday of this week. Mr. Howard's
play , "The Henrietta , " demonstrates that
there is plenty of character and interesting
life upon our own soil for stage interpreta
tion , whenever the trained mind comes to
translate it , and the author has profited by
the fact beyond any writer whoso dramatic
work has yet been brought forward. The
text is as bright as now coin , and doesn't
bear a pun from the first line to the last.
The situations are natural and effective , and
the sentiment strong and wholesome.
"Tho Henrietta" is the llrst genuine
American comedy , pure and simple , which
has been produced in Ihis country ; its story
is sensible , has n purpose , and a good ono ,
nnd it is cleverly told ; its characters are all
worthy of attention ; the situations are often
most amusing , the scheme is now to the
stage , and the tone of the piece is healthy. It
is u legitimate comedy , free from horse play ,
and appeals to the Intelligence and the heart.
The present , engagement of Messrs. Hobson
nnd Crane will bo their last appearance to
gether in Omaha , as they will separate early
next year after an association of nearly
twelve j ears.
The past week at the Eden Musee has been
nn excellent ono , both for the public nnd the
managers , of that popular family resort. All
week they have had crowded houses. The
attractions for the week beginning Monday ,
October ii'J , are equal to those ever given nt
any similar house of amusement. The orig
inal Pavanelli's Pavers of Paris will bo the
feature of the week. This is a wonderful
musical quintette with the marvelous ability
to educe the choicest music from anything ,
from a mammoth paving stone to a cabbage
head. Wherever these musical wonders
have been they have attracted thousands to
witness their 'marv'clous powers , and in
Omaha the result rannot bo different. The
attractions in all parts of the house and tnc-
ntorium nro most excellent and the week n
promising one for the management and the
public. _
At the Grand opera house Dr. Jckyll and
Mr. Hyde , by Mr. George Obcr , will bo pro
duced on next Wednesday and Thursday
nights. At the same place of amusement on
Friday and Saturday evenings and Saturday
matinee , the "White Slave" will be played.
To-night , at Boyd's , u comic operet ta nnd
a drama will bo given by Mr. ICoch's dra
matic company. In the drama , "Mozart" in
four acts , Mr. Koch will assume the title
role , ono of his best parts ; and , in the oper
etta , "Dor Kapellmeister von Vencdig , " Mr.
Axtnuinn , the clover comedian of the com
pany , will appear as Peter , in which part ho
plays different instruments , as piano , violin ,
flute , bass viol , guitar , etc. A comic solo on
the bootjack , musical laughing on the piano
and comical leading of tne whole orchestra.

'CHUItCl'T'IOI'iCS.
Hcv. Copolnnd'H ItpsiKiuUiiui The
Hcv. W. E. Copelnnd , of the Unity Unita
rian church , whoso resignation will come before -
fore his congregation this morning , has been
n potent factor in the affairs of Omaha. Cer
tainly in affairs intellectual his Influence has
been ono of the strong powers in the ad
vancement of the city. Mr. Copeland ctiuio
to Omaha ten years ago. Unity church had
been closed two yeai s. It is now a flourish
ing society with about 100 families connected
with it , and there is peed prospect of a now
church building next yonr. Mr. Copcland
has been a member ol the board of education
for Jive or six years. In this position his ad
vanced thought and studious habits have
found a field suited to their exercise. Mr.
Copcland is an earnest believer in manual
training and the study of music. Ho
suggested the introduction of these
brandies into the public school
study. He labored early and harden
on that line , and their introduction is proba-
blv duo to his efforts. Ho has also been ono
of the earnest advocates of the German and
commercial courses. During live years Mr.
Copeland was literary editor either ot the
Kcpublican or the World. Ho also did con
siderable editorial writing for them and
made n snecialty of foreign affairs. Among
other literarv wont ho contributed to labor
papers. He took a deep interest in the
movement among wage workers nnd joined
Iho Knights of Labor. Ho has been active
in G , A. H. circles and was long chaplain of
U. S. Grant post. He is a prominent Knight
of Pythias and is supreme representative for
the grand lodge of Nebraska. Ho is also a
Mason. For n number of years Mr. Copeland -
land has been the moving spirit in a thrifty
literary club. It conducted a scries of lec
tures each winter for several years and
is now engaged in Iho study of
Shakespeare. With possibly one exception
Mr. Copeland is the oldest resident of any
minister in Omaha. Ho resigns to accept the
pastorate of ono of the strongest Unitarian
churches m Washington territory , pre
sumably at Seattle or Tacoma. The society
is strong , has a hnnusomo church and the out
look is bright. One of the reasons for n
change is a desire long entertained to live on
the Pncilio coast.
The board of the First M. E. church has
announced subscriptions aggregating 5 .1,500
for the proposed structure at the corner of
Davenport and Twentieth streets. Half the
amount is payable in April , when the ground
will bo broken. It is reported that Bishop
Newman hopes to borrow ? ! 0,000 on the old
property , which would ensure enough to
enclose the now church. The contribution
has been divided to prepare plans for the edi
fice not to cost over iin.OOO.
Bishop Newman will pre.icb this morning
at the Trinity Methodist Episcopal church ,
corner of Twenty-first and Blnncy streets.
The sermon will be followed by dedicatory
services. This church was talked of in the
summer of ISs" , and Mr. Herman Kountzo
gave the project an impetus by offering to
give the Methodists two lots in Kountzo
place if they would erect a building costing
not less than $10,000. Bishop Fowler and
Presiding EUlerPhelns effected an organiza
tion and were mded in ttieir work by Hev. J.
P. Hoe. A society of twenty-live members
was formed in November , l t > , with Hev. A.
H. Henry as pastor. With the aid of the
Church Extension society the local society
buildcd in anticipation of the growth of the
years. The result is a handsome structure
costing about $16,000. The society has 110
members , and the outlook is very bright.
Dean Gardner , chaplain of the Omaha
Guards , will deliver his yearly address to the
company to-night in Trinity cathedral. The
guards will attend in uniform.
To-morrow will occur the month's mind of
Mrs. John A. Creighton. A solemn high
mass of requiem will bo celebrated at S : * ) a.
m. in St. John's Collegiate church , nnd the
new boll will bo used for the first time on
that day. The bell was donated to St. John's
church by John F. Coad , of this city.

Jack Hnvlin , the unconqucred feather
weight of the world , arrived in Omaha yes-
lorilay from Boston cnrouto lo San Fran
cisco , whither ho will light Tommy Warren
to a finish for a purse of2,500. . Ho was ac
companied by Messrs. O'Uouko nnd Austin ,
his backer and trainer , who , whllo here ,
were guests of Ed Hothery the well known
sportsman. Havlin will light Warren at 114
pounds. Ho is a strong favorite among east
ern sports , and it is generally conceded that
ho can command the heaviest backing of any
living man of his class. His desperate lights
witb Murphy nnd "Tho Spider1 in which
draws wore declared after battles of over
two hours in each case , are matters that
stand to his credit in the ring. Ho is con
sidered the greatcsl feather-weight living
to-day. Mr. Hothery showed the visitors the
sights of Omaha , and last evening they left
for the scene of the light , which will oocur
about November 20. In sneaking of John L.
Sullivan , Havlin asserts that ho is n very
Dick man , and further states that In all
probability ho will never again stand in the
ring as a principal. In fact , ho states that
Sullivan's constitution Is badly wrecked , nnd
that ha could not again withstand the arduous
lask connected with the training for n ring
encounter. After his light with Warren
Havlin will challenge both Wolrand Murphy
for a fight to a finish wlthbura Knuckles.
