The remains wore clad In a rich funeral robe of cream colored satin and cottly luce , nnd lay in n massive metallic casket In the parlor. At the head of the casket WASH bank of flowers , and grouped around it wera numerous beau tiful ttoral emblems. Filling tlio room in which the casket lay nnd these Immediately ndjucont , were the members of the fallen sisterhood to which the deceased belonged. Many of them were there from nmplo curi osity , but the majority of them , these who had personally known the deceased , gathered to pay their last respects to the memory of a friend. The services were conducted bv Uev. T. J. Mnckuy , of St. Paul's church. The regular burial service of the Episcopal church was ro.ul , with the exception that the scripture reading was the chapter of tlio prodlcal son. After n few very brief remarks , the services were concluded with n fervent nnd most touching prayer. There wore few dry eyes , nnd m any a tear of genuine sorrow was slicd when the ilnnl leave was taken of the remains. The casket was closed , eight pall bearers bore it to the waiting hearse , and nil that was mortal of Kittle Edwards , the woman of the world , was taken to its last resting place in Fairview - view cemetery , followed by n lengthy cortege of women of tier class.

Rates for the Tournament President Lacy , of the Firemen's associa tion , states that ho is now working for rail road rates that will bo even bettor for ttio success of the tournament than tne cent a mile for which sucn r. fight has been made for the past two months. Said ho to Tn r BEiiyestonlny : "The Burlington and Mil waukee roads have signified their willing ness to carry nil firemen free , nnd other vis itors nt one faro for the round trip , and will agree to do this if , the other roads will do the same. If this rate is secured , the flrcmcn all over the state will throw up their caps and hurrah for Council Blufh. Such a rate as that would fill every hotel in Council Blurts and Omaha to overflowing , and would bring such a crowd that our streets would swarm with people. The railroad oflioials say that tticro tint volunteer lire companies all along their lines which have in years past saved thousands of dollars for them , and never re ceived n cent in pay for It. If this had been done for private individuals , purses of $25 , Slit ) or $100 would have been presented to tlicm as a token of appreciation of their labors , but the railroad companies have never paid a cent , and they now desire to show the firemen that their services are not forgotten. They feel that they ewe the lire- men of the state a debt that calls for some return , nnd in this manner only can they fully reciprocate. The other roads have not yet been BCCII. but wo nro sanguine that this rate can bo secured. The outlook for tlio occasion Is most promising , and wo arc fully satisfied that the June tournament will bo one of tlio greatest and most success ful ever held. in the country. " For $23.00 The N.

In the police court , yesterday , .Tames Co- vult had his case continued until this morn ing at 9:80. : lie is charged with disturbing tlio peace. J. Kramer was booked for assault and bat tery , and ho was granted until the llth inst. at 10 o'clock to prepare his defense. Morris Brown nnd J. Smith were each lined fS.10 for drunkenness. K J. Davis nnd Harry George were towed In for larceny , and tlio hearing of their c ses was postponed until this morning. The Covnlt-Krnmor case grew out of a dif ficulty on ono of the electric motor trains , of which Kramer is conductor. Covnlt was noisy nud the conductor bounced him. A po liceman collared him , and lie then swore out n warrant against Kramer to get oven. The Brown case is simply tlio outcome of nn old man's intense craving for drink. Ho was released from the station , Tuesday morning , after paying S7.GO , but was soon full ngaln , in company with a gang of young toughs , who wore closely watching his well. llllod pockotbook. Ho will bo hold until ho Is perfectly sober and nblo to take care of his money. The larceny case is against two ilftecn-ycar-old youngsters , who struck tlio city , Tuesday. Each had a suit of clothes twelve sizes too largo for him , and they went to n tailoring establishment to have them put down. The case wus reported to the po lice nnd tlio lads were arrested. At first they denied each other's acquaintance , but finally said that they came from Chicago nnd Omnhn , and had bought tlio clothes of n tramp.

In the llRhlof last evening's revela tions , it need not bo wondered at oven. If such was actually the case. However , this is not so , as many of the com panies on the road visit this rlty every season - son , but their reception Is almost Invariably similar to that of last cvonintr. A fourth- rate minstrel troupe , with n fair brass-band attachment , is greeted with n packed house , but the eminent actors , who stand very high In their profession , receive only the slightest encouragement. This stnto of affairs was almost the sole topic of conversation among these who were out last night , nnd it was severely and bitterly criticised nnd con demned. Just why this state of affairs should exist has not been satisfactorily explained , nnd TUB Br.n proposes to look Into the matter nnd SGO if the true cnuso can not bo ascer tained nnd n radical change effected , With ono of the most beautiful opera houses In the west , and n city of 40,000 people , there is no good reason why n lirst class company can not receive liberal patronntro.

As n doubt had been expressed as to the validity of the proceedings of the body without having first elected a president by formal vote , Alderman Lacy was nomi nated nnd elected to that position. The ordinance granting to nn electric mo tor company the right to construct n line from the Union Pacific brldgo upon certain streets of the city , was called up and passed , Alderman Lacy being excused from voting. An ordinance prescribing the duties and ofllco hours of the city treasurer was road. The hours are from 9 to 10 n. in. nnd a to 4 p. m. , or such other hours as the city council may elect. The twentieth rule was sus pended and the ordinance passed , six ayes. An ordinance providing for the appoint ment of n city veterinarian and prescribing his duties , salary , etc. , was read. The mayor , with the consent of the city council , Is made the nppalnting power. The veterinarian si mil examine nil meat exposed for sale ; all dairies and milk sold within the city ; nil horses exposed tor snlo. Another ordinance providing for milk inspection was also read. The city veterinarian shall provide all own ers of dairies with certificates of good health , which shall be the credentials necessary to n lawful sale of the product. Both were re ferred to the committee on health. Alderman Knephor moved that tlio city en gineer advertise for bridges on Eighth and on Mynstcr streets , the latter to bo opened for the public use.

[ Special to Tim BUE. ] For n country that isyctin swaddling clotlics only a child out at nurse Dakota's credit is quite healthy. Trcusurer Bailey tills week sold nbout $75,000 of bonds at a premium of 1J per cent , the bonds bearing only 4 per cent interest. This is the lowest rate of interest which any of our eight or ten series of bonds bear , nnd we Unkotnns think the rate of interest and tlio premium speak very highly for our com mercial standing. For the last decade tlio finances of the territory have been well managed. There is over ? IiOOUO in tlio treas ury to-day , which does not include the result of the aforementioned bond sale. The money tor this has not reached tlio treasurer. Only a few of tlio district convent ions hnvo been hold this week. Three-quar ters of them nro set for May 0 , 7 or 8. Thus far the delegates nominated by the republicans nro of the very best class of eur people intelligent , temperate , upright. If the nominees of next week are of equally high character the convention of ISh'J will rank along with that ot 'Sli ; and it was the best assembly of good citizens ever known in tlio territory. t Governor Mellettb has given us no ap pointments this week. Ho was at home for a week "resting up" from the work already done. Nearly all of his appointments nro very satisfactory , barring the natural disap pointment of these who.did not receive plums. It is ever thus with the army of the loft. loft.Yet Yet more of the Oklahoma mourners ar rived this week. With an average of 2,000,030 acres in each of our ten land districts , with out n filing ou any of it , wo can furnish homes for hundreds of thousands of home less ones , nnd then leave untouched tlio 11,000,000 in the Sioux reservation that may be opened at some future date. Hard frosts during some nights of this week have done a little damage to the wheat nt some points. In Miner county a few fields were frozen to the ground. But the area that was thus injured is but as n drop in the bucket in comparison with the best fields of wheat that were untouched. Our farmers arc not sowing so largo an amount of wheat us formerly. They find that some other crops nro moro profitable. Corn put into cattle and hoga gives n better return ; sheep raising paj s well and costs nothing much ex cept for dogs ; flax yields heavily with half n chance. All this is dawning upon the grangers nnd they are beglning to under stand it. A large nnmber of Russians just from the "ould sod" have gone into Camuboll and McPherson counties nnd nro rapidly taking up the flue lands in that part of Dakota. The railroad commissioners nave organized by electing .Tudson LaMoure , of Pembina , president ; .1. L. Hobinson , of Watcrtown , secretary. LaMoure is ono ot the oldest humans west of the Mississippi , and doesn't know it. lie has been a member of tlio leg islature three times , and was always wit.li the number who trot there. Mr. Robinson is another of the lucky newspaper men lucky in this Instance. There is so strong n determination to readopt - adopt the Sioux Falls constitution or , rather , such n unanimous belief that it will bo adopted on May 14 , that there is danger of not having a full vote out at that time. But it is hoped that all the urcss will next week enjoin every Soutli Dakota voter to be at the polls and vote , even though he stops corn planting u day to do it. Let us start right in building this stnta by everyone tak ing iv hand in its creation. FUKSII FJIOM THE PHESS. This is u novel , the incidents of which illustrate life in the diamond flolda of South Africa. Tlio plot is a very common ono nowadays the faith lessness of a wife to her husband owing to her irresistiihlo passion for another man , who in this case is an Austrian , llorr Sehwatkii. This gentleman after his first sin in encouraging the illicit love of Dainty Lauro behaves far hotter than the iisiril run of such offenders. Ttio llnalo of the plot is somewhat abrupt , hut novel. After reading the onlsodo related in the first chapter , one is prepared for a medley of improbabilities ; this suppo sition , however , is speedily dispelled by the general interest aroused in the attractiveness - tractivonoss of the story. A profusion of effective coloring produces an agree able display , hut the movements of the actors , though vigorous , are not finite artlstiu in design. There is a lack of Individuality In the characters with the exception of Dainty Lauro a crea tion full of life. The native blood coursing through her veins is vividly presented by her passionate and impul- hive behavior , especially in the tcotio with llorr Schwatku when ho , with hu roll D eel strength , endeavors to control the wild , impetuous daughter of Africa. Brevity and vivacity are the pleasing characteristics of the hook. The print ing und illustrations are exceptionally lino. Sun , nn Allegory of the Church , Frank F , Lovcll & Company , H'J nnd 1H Worth street , Now York. Recent religious productions "havo been conspicuous for vigorous attempts to banish everything spiritual and mysterious from the realms of the church , leaving only a rationalistic : and almost a business-like creed , which these writers would Jmvo us believe is the essence of divine .faith , often ignor ing the fact that life is the most inex plicable mystery there is. After a sur feit of such literature it is pleasant to turn to ' 'Sho , an * Allegory of the Chtirch. " These who havo. rend Rider Hag gard's "Sho , " will romomhor the au thor's expressed inability lo interpret his story , which holmaginotl was some gigantic allegory , explanation of it ho loft to others. Leo Michael under takes this task , and this is the interpre tation : "She , " is the church ; Leo , is intuition ; Holly , science : Job , practical service ; Ustanl. spiritualism ; Moham- on , in fidelity ; Blttall , the priesthood ; Kor , the mo'dorn world ; The Hamhag- gar , the devotees of superstition ; Hot- poting , religious persecution. She the church , has become the solo guardian of truth , but is ignorant of the exact nature of her chat-go ; she is also possessed of the secret of eternal life and yet incapable of dispensing it. "Sho" has watched and waited through the generations for a deliverer who flhUll come and explain thrco mysteries. Tlio allegory is well sustained by all the characters assisting in the effort to ro- movu the veil from the face of truth. This result is at length achieved main ly by Intuition and Science aided by Practical service ; in consequence'of whoso notions the church finally plunges into the bath of Hroyhich is the cleansing power of the spirit. Tlio llcshly form of the church thus per ishes , but , her spirit was now-born. By this act "Sho" receives the knowledge of truth and eternal life. Intuition and Science at the same time imbibe enough of the Hro to experience its exhSlorating potency. "Sho" becomes enshrined in tlio hearts of Leo and Holly , though the mantel of Shu falls through the gloom of tlio night upon Leo. As Leo and Holly both live , so shall science and intuition work together as 0110. Religion is to become seientille and science religious. The allegory signifies that truth can only bo found by means of the spirit ; that there is no dependence on external methods cither in the physical or psychic realm , but on the spirit alone. It is the soul that saves us not we the soul provid ed wo go forth and seek our inheri tance. This is certainly a marvellous production , the outcome of religious en- thusinsm operating upon an imagina tive mind. Those who cannot soar above the heavy clouds of rationalism will probably condemn it as fantastic ; but npno can deny its beauty and fas cination. Muxico By Susan Hale ; illustrated ; pub lished by G. P. Putnam's Sons , New York. Susan Halo gives a recapitulation of historical facts , the value of which is greatly modified by the insertion of much supurlluous explanatory twaddle that is neither amusing nor instructive. She makes the great mistake of com mitting to paper everything that ex cites her own perceptive faculties , thinking that a reciprocal sympathy will be aroused thereby in the mind of the reader. Her style is somewhat jerky ; also conspicuous for a super abundance of pronouns : Laying aside these faults the work is readable and gives much interesting information re garding Mexico. The illustrations are good. ECONOMIC VALUE or EMICTIC LIOHT AND Powr.n by A. II. Foote , Hobert Clnrko & Co. , Cincinnati. The capabilities of electricity and the beneficial results to bo derived there from , are now exercising not only the minds of the leading scientists but also the entire community. This book eon - tains a comprehensive mass of well ar ranged information , and is designed to be of service to these interested in ob taining state or municipal legislation. It is maintained that the electric ser vice of a city should bo framed on the basis of a public improvement , with special previlegcs calculated to enhance the interests of all citizens , rathera diilicult undertaking considering the many opposing interests. However , the author substantiates his theory by dis pelling the many illusions prevalent amongst the adversaries of electric ex tension. Special attention to this book is also asked of manufacturers , and those who are , or intend to become , in terested in electric central stations. These uninitiated in electrical terms will find considerable assistance from an explanation in uiitcchnical language in the appendix. The book is not re markable for literary brilliancy or ex treme profundity of thought , but tno writer has a useful knack of convoying his meaning in a simple phraseology , and succeeds in his avowed object of creating interest in his theme , 'and im- parling much useful information. Tin : STAMVAKTSJ Oit , WHO WBKIJ TO BLAMR < Mrs Franco Marie Norton , Chicago cage , 111. This is a novel based on the assassin ation of Garliold , It is written by Mrs. Norton , the sister of Guiteau , to pre vent history from giving the same ver dict that the jury gave at her brother's trial. The first portion of the btory is remarkable for ambiguous phrases and contradictory statements. The writer allows her imagination to run riot , and in the excess loses proper control of her pen. Unimportant details are described with precision , but the frequent oppor tunities that occur for the display of lit erary ability are often treated with feebleness. In the latter part of the book , however , whcrp the material is " richer , she apnoars to" have received a sudden infusion of literary vitality. The incidents are striking and frequent , though the style of diction still lacks refinement and graco. Many historical characters nnd political intrigues are woven into the story. Hulllvnn'ri TrntnliiK Quarters. John L , Sullivan's friends in Now Orleans have already selected his train ing quarters. Sullivan , they say , may bo expected in Now Orleans shortly.
