A report reached this city yesterday from Sidney saying that Chct Morgan loft bis banking affairs in much worse condition than any statement regarding them yet mado. THE BBU'S informant declares that the lia bilities over and nbovo the assets will not bo less than $40,000 and they may roach SM.OOO. Morgan's ' friends are trying to make it appear tliut the bank is in good condition and that the young man had loft property enough to settle all his debts. LJut this , It is claimed , Is absurd. In their estimate of assets thuy counted an overdraft of $18.000 and failed to Include lia bilities outside of those duo depositors , U Is understood that Frank Johnson has changed his mind about assuming the bank's obligations and paying its debt. If the lia bilities coma within $40,000 ho may stand the burden , but should they run up to $50,000 or ( 0,000 somebody else must share the loss with him. The editor of the Burlington Juno- tlon.Mo.

There wore probably a thousand persons some estimated the crowd at twice that number present at the laying of the corner Btono of the First Methodist church , last night. The threatening clouds of the after noon had cleared away and cool breezes fanned thu brows of the multitude on the sloping side of the High school ground , la carriages and on the hastily constructed platform over the church basement. On this platform , well toward the front , was placed an organ and a choir was grouped around. Rows of chairs led back from the organ , and on them were the clergy of the city and visiting notables. Among the latter were Bishop Newman , Presiding Elder W. T. Smith , of the Council Bluffs district ; Presiding Elder P. E. Hodgotts , of the Elkhorn - horn district : Rer. Mr. Fr.tnkltn , of the First Church , of Council Bluffs ; Dr. J.B. Max- Held , presiding older of the Norfolk district ; und tha venerable T. B.

"This Is a memorable duv for Methodism In Omaha , " he began , "it is the realization ol years of hopes and pr.iyers. " A tribute to John Wesley was the natural forerunner of an Impassioned eulogy of the church , her ahuH , her honss nnd the good she has done. Tha mission of Methodism wa to revive n vitiated , weakened Christianity , and hou grimily that mission has been fulfilled none can trll bolter thun did the bishop , fn church work as in other llnoi , this Is the ago of progress. Never before did the people give so lavishly as now ; never so much nuet of generous giving , When Otuaha frhal throiv out her arms to grasp the hllU and encircle the prairies , when a quarter ef a million people are clustered here , then shall tul new church be a power for good , a mou- um&ut to the men and women who built it.

An Interesting Account of Their Singular Inrringo Curornonles. Ph. Jacobson , in a letter to his well- known brother , Captain A. .Tacobsen , gives the following description of the imirriajro ceremonies of the Bilqua In dians of BritiHh Columbiasaya Science. An Indsan who intends to marry calls upon his intended wife's parents and arranges with them how much ho is to pay for permission to marry the girl. Among people of high descent this is done by messengers , sometimes as many as twenty boingsent to call on the girl s father. They are sent by the man's parents before the young man is of ago. In many instances both man and girl are not more than eight or nine years old. The messengers go in their boats to the girl's house , and carry on their negotiations without going ashore , where the relatives of the trirl are standing. The messenger's of the young man's parents praise his excel lence and noble descent ; the great ex ploits of his father , grandfather and ancestors ; their wars , victories and hunting expeditions ; tlioir liberal - oral ity at festivals , etc. Then the girl's relatives praise the girl and her ancestors , and thus the negotiations are carried on. Finally a number of blank ets are thrown ashore by the messen gers ; and tho'girl'fl relatives protest and maintain that the number is not sulll- oiont to pay for the permission to marry the girl. In order to obtain their con sent now blankets are thrown ashore ono by ono , the messengers continually maintaining that the price paid is too groat. Generally from twenty to fifty blankets , each of the value of about 111 ty cents , are paid. AJtor this the boy and the girl are considered engage . _ When they come , to be grown up ( jio 'young man hus to servo a year to bifl\fllthor-in-luw. Ho must fell trues , fetali water , lisli and hunt for the latter , lf DnriiiL' this tiuio ho is culled Kosjr ioh , moans "ono who woos. " After a ayear lias elapsed the murriago is celebrated. At this time great festivals ar .colohratod. Sevan or eight men perfornyt'daueo. They wear dancing aprons ahI { logirins , trimmed with pullin-boaksj'liobfs of doors , copper plates and bolls. ' * If the groom should bo a wealthy man' . Sflio has presented to his wife many HirmU'"cnppor plates , such as are used as iiiV } | [ > otit8 to a bride , those are carried , uy the dancers. The tjlngiiig-iuastor , who bouts the drum , starts a bong , in which the dancers join. . The song lined at the marriage , festival is sung in unison , while in all other dances onoh dancer has his own tuuo and song. The first dancer wears a ring made of cedar bark. Ills hair ' is strewn with eagle- down , which ilio's about when ho moves and forms u cloud around his head. The groom presents the first dan cor with a piece of calico , which the luttor tears to pieces , which ho throws down in front of each house in the village , crying , "Hoipl" in order to drive away evil spirits. Those pieces pf calico which ho throws down in front of the houses have u lucky moaning and at the snmo time express the idea thut the groom , when lie comes to bo a wealthy man , will not forget the inhabitants 04 uny house whun giving u festival. The dancers swing their bodies and arms , stamp their foot , und show the copper plates to the lookers-on.

A southern colonel nnd n north western ranch owner formed part ot a little knot of men who were onj6.vlug thorn- solves around n table in the HolTmnn house cafe the other night , says the Now York Tribune. The conversation turned on the resources of the now south , and the colonel said : S'Nuw in dustries are springing up there ovary day , I toll you. liven the darkey boys nnd girls are learning to bo industrious since they tlnd it pays thorn. Ono of the latest wrinkles they have caught on Lo is the gathering of gopher eggs in Florida nnd the othur gulf states , which sell readily and find their way into many palatable dishes In northern restaurants. " "Como , now , colonel , " said the ranch owner , "draw it mild on us. Gopher eggs eggs , you know. Hnl hal That's good I "I don't understand you , nlr , " said the colonel , rnthor nettled. "You evi dently take what 1 said for a joke. " "Woll , that was natural , I am sure , colonel , " was the reply. "I would not olTond you for the world ; but gophers' eggs , you know Hal hat Why , gophers don't lay eggs. You must be thinking of something else. " "I generally know what I am talking about , sir , " snapped the southerner , "and 1 am not nuetistomco to being told that I do not. I'll ' hot you ten to one that gophore lay eggs , nnd that I have oaten thorn myself. " "Done with voU , " said the run eh e owner , "inX's. " A btnkoholdor was appointed , and a dictionary sent for. The roforco turned to Jhc word and rend : "Gophor , a little hurrowing animal of the genus Psowlos- tomit a pouched rat common to the western plains or North America. " "Thorol" cried the rancho owner , "what did I tell you ? I've known them all my life , and 1 guess no one ever eaw n rat lay eggs. That's my mon " "Hold on , " said the referee , "wait for the second definition , " and ho contin ued to road : "A species ot burro\ying tortoise Xorobtuis Carolinus ' 'nbitat. the southern parts of North America. . " "Groat Scottl Is th-vt so ? " crlod the yostotnor. "Oolonol , I bog your par don. I never know that a gciphcr was anything but a pesky Httlo ground rat. The money's yours. " "Well " the colonel "I , replied , never know that a gopher was anything hut n no.necount turtio ; so we'll call it n draw nud you can open wlno for the party. " Scrntohon Illn llnete Artificially ! Mr. Harrison hasnn nrtlclo of furni ture of which ho Is very proud , nnd which is always to bo found on his table in his library , says a Wnshlngton cor- spondont of the Cleveland Plalndonlor. It is ono ot those contrivances with a peculiarly shaped handle used for scratching the bucU in places inaccessi ble to the hand. He received it as n present'from a young lady hi Indlanap'- oils. oils.Mr. Mr. Harrison Is very weak on the sub ject of baclc scratching. This is well Known in Indianapolis. Ho would fre quently , while talking to a friend or n client In his little olllco out there , in terrupt the conversation by getting up ntfd requesting the ono with whom ho was talking , to scratch his back. From this ho got a great deal of enjoyment , as much , perhaps , as Sandy did while going through the operation , which always brought forth from him the ad juration : "God bless the Dulco of Ar- iryll. " Mr. llnrrison's back seratchor has nn Ivory handle. Ho uses it when no mem ber of his family or close friend is near to run hisfinger nails ever just the spot that yearns for the sensation of titillu- tion. Otherwise ho prefers to have the scratching done by hand. If any gentleman who hankers greatly for an olllco will so fur overcome his na tural trepidation as to boldly'go up nnd scratch gently and soothingly on Mr. Harrison's back ho may consider him self as put on the pay roll.
