8. THE OMAHA DAILY BEE ; SUNDAY. OCTOBER 28. .1388-SIXTEEN PAGES. BROWNING , KING & CO , Iho Largest Manufacturers of Cloth ing in the World. Xlic ii : lith Magnificent tlclnll llstnb- lUlimunt .of thin Great Firm IJD- CAtctl nl Houtlicnst Corner ol' Klftcctitli and Douglas. 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.

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.

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. lion ne tH nnd Hntu To suit everybody nt ALMA E. KEITH'S , 109 and 111 16th St. , opp. P. O. A NOTKI ) VEATIIKK-WKIGIIT. Ilnvlln , About to Fight Warren , on Ills Way to tlio Scone. 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. The message DoxcsofTllB BEE nre proving a great convenience to the public.
