G THE OMAH'A DAILY BEE : TtgTKSDAY , FEBRUARY 23. 1880. MUSIC' AND ITS LOVERS , The Apollo Club Scores a Charac teristic Success. AN ENJOYABLE EVENI NQSPENT. . All of the Numbers Creeled AVItli Jlcnrty ApVlnnso With lOncorci tlic Order of the Hour. The A poll ( i Club. The Omnhn Apollo clab was crowned with now laurels last night. An audience that filled Hoyd'fi opera house , and composed for the most part of the c-llte ol thq city , greeted its members upon their sixth appearance In this city In public concert. In the rendition of tlio excellent proRratnmo arranged for the evening the club was most nbly assisted by the Mtisln Concert company , of New York , consisting of Mr.OvidoMusln , violinist ; Mrs. Annlo Louisa Tinnier , so prano , nnd Mr. KdwinShoncrt , pianist. 1 lie Apollo club la composed of twenty-four uuilo vocalists of this city under the direction of Mr. 13. 11. Young , The entertainment opened with "The Bailor's Hong , " from Hiitton , which was most ncccptubly rendered by the club. This was followed by Hhapsodio Hongiolse No. I ! , from LIsH , by Mr. Sltbncrt. The performer - former seemed to be in thorough sympathy with the production , and his rendition of It was such us to merit the encore ho received nnd to which ho responded. "O , Vision En trancing , " from Ksincnilde , by Thomas , ns sung b.v Mr. Moekrldge , was received wlih every inunilcstution of delight by the audi ence. Ho wus encored and in response sang a selection from jtnllmi opera. It was evident from the npplntiso upon the nppcnritnco of Musln that he hud greeted Omaha audiences before. IIo plnyed a sou venir of Hiul.vn , by Leonard , and received aden don bio encore , to which ho grncefully re- responded. Mr. Musln is a master of the violin nnd was evidently the favorite of the evening , receiving two double nnii ono single encores during the evening. Mrs. Tanner , notwithstanding the fact thai she was suffer ing from a sere throat , sang Kntrnncing , from "Esmeriilde , " by Thomas , very sweetly. In response to tin encore she sung a light Italian air which was also vor.v well re ceived. Mrs. Tnnner has n very clear so prano , more perfect , perhaps , in the high register than In the low , but altogether plcuslng. In conclusion of the first half of the pro gramme , the club sang "Waiting for the Uugle , " by Mrs. U. U. Young , of this city. As nn encore the second siau7ii was repeated. The remainder of the programme was as follows : Proposal . Osgood Apollo Club. Aria , Celeste Aida . Verdi Whitney Alockbridge. Ovldo Musin. Arid From Magic Flute . Mozart Annie Louise Tanner.

This morning's session was opened \vith the litany , read by Bishop Worthlngton. The attendance was conlincd nearly entirely to clergymen and their families. An able paper upon the necessity and the best methods of tlio devotional study of the scriptures in maintaining spiritual life was read by Hev. Francis Moore , of Noligh , who was followed by Hov. M. P. Oury , of Ne braska City , in an eloquent address upon , the eunio topic. The question was then thrown open for discussion , mid u number of those present expressed their views upon the sub ject.This This was followed by an impressive cere mony , the priests present , at the request of the bishop , arising nnd renewing their ordi nation vows and repeating the confession of faith. The question , ' 'What can bo done In our parishes to cuuso a better observance of the church's feasts and fasts , " was answered by A. (5. ( E. Jennor , of North Plutto , and Hov. J , Nelson Jones , of Grand Island. The convocation then adjourned until 2 o'clock. The first question discussed in the after noon was , "Women helpers in the church. How cun their work bo madn most effect ive ! " Answered by Rev. A. ( J. E. Jenner , of Nortli I'lutte , and Kcv. J. Nelson Jones , of Grand Island. "Tho free church system in theory and in practical results , " was discussed by J. W. Oilman , of Hastings , and Uev. Kobort Scott , ol Uoiitrlco , Prayer rfpcncd last night's meeting. Then the Hov. \ \ . T. Whitnmrah , of Norfolk , read an nblo paper on "Hubrlcs. Written and Un written , " that should bo observed in the con duct of dlvmo service. Ho divided his theme Into three parts , viz. : The rubrics of rover- cnco , common senbo and consistency , and ad vocated the strict observance of all the rubrics found in the book of piaycr , * p far as it was possible1. . The Hov. Mr. Dorothy spoke on the same subject , his views not wholly co- Incidinif. with those of Hov. Whitmarsh. Ho thought the salvation of the souls of men and women was beyond the formula of church ceremony , and was of more Import ance. There was u time when the ignorance of the clergy rendered rubrics necessary. For his own part , ho had at times omit ted portions of the service as laid dnwn , and unless specially forbidden , would do so again. lilshop Worthington agreed with him in sonio respects. Ho thought the frontier mis sionary should obey the rubric of common Ecnso , but that in well organized congrega tions the I'lcrgymnn had no right to deprive his congregation of any portion of the ritual. The Hov. John Williams read n paper oa "How to Make the Oniro of Lay Headers Morn Effective , " and said it was to abolish thepi. When the question of making tlio church moro popular of drawinc the masses to them was considered it should bo remembered that the friendship of the world wus at enmity with I God , and then these who had work to do should do It fearlessly and without thought of scnsulioimlltim or popularity. Ho nsltod Christian parents to dedicate more of vhclr families to > the service of the church and then the necessity of the lay reader would bo avoided. The Hov. W. 0. 1'oarson spoke to the con trary , and thought that lay readers wcro an aid to the work. A missionary from the west supported this. Mr. Williams explained that ho wus mis understood. A collection was taken up and the meeting cnmo to a close. To day the clergymen will meet Bishop I'erry , of lowu. A liiirulnry.

Luokabcfry , of Is'ow York , received on Thursday , February 21 , a telegram from MIddlcton , signed by his son , a member of the freshmen class , asking him to send that day five bombs. Ho sent a messenger from ImoftU'Oto get the bombs , writing on the back of the telegram , "Hoinbs , sticli as stu dents use. " Ho had In mind the kind of bomb called "cliecsu bomb , " which explodes with a loud report , but which is not especially dangerous. Tlio messenger failed to Ilnd the linn to which ho was sent , nnd went to an other , nnd was given some so-called sa lute bombs. The exact nature of tlmsu has not yet been ascertained. The messenger took them to Lacknbcrry , sr. , and ho sent them to the baggage master of the tram. Neither examined tlio package. When opened at Middlcton they wcro seen to bo not what wns sent for , but wcro sup posed to bo nil right , or Lackaberry , sr. , would not have sent them. Thus , by n scries of blunders nnd misunderstandings , a colluuo prank , seriously disorderly , but not malicious , resulted in what at llrsl seemed to bo a vicious crime , Lackiiburry had once before scnl his son such bombs ns were asked for , and under circumstances Involving no breach of college rules.

The grand jamboree - boreo at the domocro'tic primary In the Fourth ward Tuesday evening was dis cussed lit grant length , und the proua- blo result anticipated. The weakness of Sweeney , the nominee for alderman from that wardwas generally conceded , even by the democrats , and many of thorn wcro especially severe in their de nunciation of the method adopted by Sweeney's friends to secure the nomi nation for him. There wn < 3 scarcely a democrat to ho found in the city who was willing to express any faltli in his chances of election. Said one prominent loader of the un- torrilied , "Tho republicans can elect any good man if ho is at all conserva tive , without the slightest trouble. " Said another , " 1 am going to turn mugwump , and vote for tlio republican nominee , for 1 can't go Sweeney , lie won't poll iv half of iho democratic vote of tlio ward. " Still another expressed himself as fol lows : 'Tho4l'omocrals won't olnct a man not a single man. Carrigg played his cords well , and Sweeney was nomlnatcc' simply because ho is tlio easiest man in the ward to beat. Ho will bo snowed under and never resurrected. Lacy will got knocked out In the Third ward , nnd if the republicans only put a strong mnn for alucrniitn-at-largo , they will make a clean swoop. " Thcso are samples of the feelings of the ocal democracy regarding thoii nominees. * All grades bdft coal. C. ] 3. Fuel Co. S. B. Wadsworth & Co. loan inonov.

"Will you take this man to be your lawful and wedded husband ? ' ' asked Squire Sehuiv. yesterday of Li/.x.io Macivlin , in the midst of a deeply in terested group in the ollice of Sheriff O'Neill. 'Yes , sir , T guess so , " wu thc re sponse of the damsel addressed , and the ceremony proceeded. The contracting parties were Jasper N. Kincaid and the girl above mentioned. A history of the case has previously appeared in these columns , but a brief synopsis may not bo amiss at the present time. Lizzie Macklin was uorji and raised in the country , but it is said was always inclined to bo rather fast , and rebelled against parental restraint. She was fourteen her last birthday , and an nounced her intention of seeing the world. Finding that they could not dissuade her-her uarents sent her to this city from their homo in Carver township , and instructed the landlady of the boarding house whore she ob tained work to look after her very closely. She fell in with bad company , and in a few weeks loft the place with Kincaid , who is a hack driver of this city. She was found in his hack two days later and he was arrested. The case would have been tried next week , but Kir.caid , with the walls of the penitentiary staring him in the face , suddenly conceived a most in tense affection for the L'irl he had wronged , and besought her to marry him. His attorney added his entreaties to those of the would-be husband , and the girl consented. Sheriff O'Neill took his prisoner from jail yestejfday morning to his ollieo in the court house , where the father and mother of the girl , the father of tlie ifroom and a largo number of the at taches of the court house were assem- jled to witness the ceremony. It was quite an informal affair. No one gave the bride away , but contrary to the usual custom , the shorilT gave the groom away. The father and mother > f the bride wore asked to sign the cer tificate as witnesses , but the mother declined for the reason that she could lot write , being no "seliolard , " and Jio head of the family was in the same joat. County Attorney Organ and Notary C. II. Gilmore subscribed to the locumcnt , and the newly wedded pair departed.

The boys leave here this afternoon at 4li- ! " ) 'clock , arriving at Missouri Valley at 6 o'clock , whore they board one of the cars of the Sioux City train. This train is made up of eight Pullman sleepers , and is handsomely decorated with corn. They slop one day in Chicago , and ar rive at Washington Sunday night. By going in this way , they will bo stationed only three miles from Washington , whereas if they went alone their track- ago would bo nine miles out. Tlio Job Isn't "Knl" "There is just one thing that makes mo feel bad , " said Mayor Hohror yes terday morning , "and that Is that my term of ollico Is not at an end. If it only expired March | , i , 1889 , Instead of MarcJ1 lo , 18HO , I would be the happiest man in the city. No , sir , I am not a candidate for re-oleotion , and I wouldn't have the oltlo another term at the present salary. 1 Know when I have enough , I was not a candidate when elected. They cairio to mo several times and urged 'mo to take it , and 1 told them distlnetlv that I wouldn't have it for lens than * L')0 ( ) a month , They promised mo that amount , and after I was elected they cut mo off with $1U5 a month. It strikes mo that a laborer IM worthy of his hire , and I claim to bo the poor man's frlond bo- eAuse I want a man to got pay for what ho does. No more mayor in inlnu at $ l'J"amonth. . 1 ma heartily- sick of it , and wish I was out of it. " The listeners wore filled with pity for Hie overworked executive. After ho had departed one of bus dtaeiplos c.x- nressed himself as follows : "Why don't ho resign if ho don't like the job or the pay'i" " Wo elected him to a good , fat ollice , and now ho don't appreciate it , " They Are Spoiling llroaihvny. Complaint is made that the dirt liay.1- ors are now using Lower Broadway as a thoroughfare. The kick is not made on account of the ifso of the street , but the misuse of it , as the dirt wagons are con stantly scattering tlioir loads , and the resull can be easily imagined. It will bo bat a short time until the street will have a two-inch coating of dirt on top of the paving , to bo converted into the most disagreeable kind of mud with every rain. It is but a few days since work was commenced raising Wrlght'n addition to grade , but a considerable amount of dirt has already been scat tered over the paving below Streets- ville. It is suggested that if the council does not wish to order the dirt teams olT that street altogether , that body might at least require them to keep to one side of the street , as by so doing the greater part of this delightful drive would bo kept in line condition in all kinds of weather. * srffiS 5 Sn air ! tea &s&s * - * i Mustang" conquers pain , Kiakes MAN or BEAST well again !
