Joseph Onrnoau hni just rcturnod from a
trip to ttio south. Ho lonrnod on his arrival
that ho bad been placed at the head ot thu
cor.nnlttco on out-door entertainments of the
Merchants' Wcok association ,
"Tho nppolntmcnt wn made \vliilo I was
nway , " ho said , "novcrtlioloss I shall do all
In my power to mnfco the work of the com-
mittco most successful and satisfactory. "
"What plan Imvo you outlined for n series
of cntortnlnincnisi1 *
"Woll , I huvu not as yet determined upon
a plan because I have not hnd timo. Aa a
starter , however , I nm in favor
of stnrtinR a nightly Illumination ,
such as they have In St. Louis , but ,
of course on u smaller scale. You Imvo. of
course , seen the gus Illumination during fair
week. There la nothing like It. Wolf , this
year they are to have n somewhat different
style of Illumination mid that would give us
n clmncn to Jump In and buy some of their
pipe. it would cosl us about $ . "
The Rum Is omitted for various reasons.
"Could that amount bo raised ) "
AV. A. L. Gibbon , who was present , said
that Mr. Qnrneau , several other * and him-
Bolt two yearn ago had gone around and In
a few hours had obtained twice the amount
In subscriptions for thu soldiers1 reunion , a
gathering which didn't bonotlt the town a
particle. "
' How muo of the. city could you lllu-
Bitto ? "
' 'About two miles and a half. "
"What streotsl"
"Farnam , Douglas , part of Fifteenth and
Sixteenth streets. Wo could get four arches
for Tenth and Farnam , Sixteenth and Far-
nam. Fifteenth and Douglas , and Thirteenth
and Douglas. The gas company In St. Louis
furnished the gas for nothing- and would
likely do the sumo thing hero. It' it only
cuts the prlco In two , that would bo sufll-
cient. "
Mr. Garncau was directed to Tut : HEE'S
suggestions as to how an attraction for
every day and night of the fair could
bo gotten up , and said that such attractions
r with n certain amount of Interest by
cncrgctla young folks and business men
could bo gotten up. They would bo com
paratively Inexpensive , and would Inure to
the bcnellt of the city , because larger crowds
than < 5vor would bo attracted to Omaha.
They would bo kept down town part of the
time. They could then go to the coliseum
exposition , then to the fair grounds , anil still
Hnd sufficient In the night attractions to
keep them In town over nlu'ht.
The committees of the merchants will moot
to-day , when all those subjects will bo
discussed.
The Coliseum Exposition.
The Merchants' and Manufacturers' expo
sition to bo held at the Coliseum , Septom

Nipped In the Bud.
Is it tint better to nip consumption , the
greatest scourge of humanity , in the bud ,
than to try to stay its progress on the brink
of the grave. A few doses of California's
most useful production , Santa Able , the
king of consumption , will relieve , and a thor
ough treatment will cure. Nasal catarrh ,
too , often thu forerunner of consumption ,
can bo cured \jy \ California Cat-It-Curo.
These remedies are sold and fully warranted

courses for boulevards. They oxporieuced
conslderaolo difficulty In delecting a suitable
route for the proposed driveway from Hatis-
com park to Florence , and , in the opinion of

UOYD FOIl
Ho "Will Accept , Conditionally , the
Dotnnurntio Nomination.
Much speculation has bean indulged in re
garding the democratic nominee for mayor.
Two names have been mentioned In this con
nection , namely , Hon , James E. Boyd and
Charles Goodrich , the present city comp
troller. Many of the democrats , who have
taken a conservative stand , favor the nomi
nation of Goodrich , for the reason , they
claim , that It would have u tendency to
harmonize the party. They also claim that
ho is the strongest man In the ranks , not ex
cepting Mr. Hoyd.
it was learned that Mr. lloyd , In response
to a question propounded by Dr. George L.
Miller , "Will you acropt the nomination ! "
said : "I have not mudo up my mind yni , and
will not make any definite answer until Sep
tember ; but If It comes down to a question
of u republican mayor or James K. lioyd , I
will tuVo up the light. "
The democratic Interpretation of Mr ,
Floyd's remarks Is that ho will accept the
nomination.

NOT SAFE.
The Sldnoy Bunk Yet in the
Woods.
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.

In answer to the question why the council

the city council said i "Tho facts In the case
nro just those ; When Contractor Hanson
broke up and the city found It would have to
complete tha contract nnd hold Mr. Hanson's
bondsmen , the estimates were that It would
cost some $700 or fSOO , not to exceed ? 1OOJ ,
to complete the work. To our surprise ,
when the work was completed the bill catno
In for $6,078. The old council passed n reso

except myself , authorizing a Judgment to bo

when n statement comes In showing a judg
ment for JSOO. , This council simply gives

THE NEW M. E. CHURCH.
The Corner Stone Ijnid with Intor-
cmliis CeromonlOH.
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. Lemon , "Father ol
Nebraska's Methodism , " and loved and re
vered everywhere , though not now actively
engaged In the pulpit ministry.
The following programme of the exorcises
was then rendered :

Benediction By the bishop
Bishop Newman was more than usually
eloquent and earnest. His address was re
peatedly interrupted by applause from the
brethren on the olialrs before him.
"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.
At the conclusion ot the ceremonies a
portion of tha audience rotlrod 16 the rear
half of the platform , where the young pea
pie had prepared a ummer night lunch o
ices , cakes , etc.
The First MotbodUt church o' Omaha was

WKST13KN UNION INJUNCTION.
Attorney General Allllrr Will Tnko
the Blatter Up.
Attorney General Miller has notified the
Union Pacific and the Western Union com
panies that , In his opinion , the United States
Is a party to the injunction proceedings
brought at the Instigation of the Western
Union Telegraph company , nnd that the cnso
will bo disposed of as soon us ho can giro it
his attention. ,
This case grew out.of the Union Pacific
being enjoined bv the Western Union Tele
graph company froiiroporatinL- distinct and
independent system of telegraph between
Omana and Denver und Kansas City and
Cheyenne , a full account of which was pub
lished in TUB Uiii : qbout six months ago.
The case was callci | before Judge Brewer ,
of the United StatUH circuit court at Leaven-
worth , Kan. , and , upon suggestion by the
court , the litigants agreed to submit the
terms to the nttirnoy-general. This was
done , but U was during the closing of Cleve
land's ndministratipq.und Attorney-General
G arlaud requested tuu the matter bo held
for his succebsor. '
For a tfmo It was doubted that the case
would bo taken up by the government but
the doubt seems to have been dispelled.
Judge Kelley , assistant general attorney of
the Union Pacific , st&ted thut , owing to the
changes m official , positions being made , re
sulting in n change from democratic to a re
publican administration , several months
would likely elapse before the case would bo
called.

THE BILQULA INDIANS.
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. Then the
bride's father brings u groat-number ol
blankets , conoraUy doub\o \ tjio number
ot these ho had received from the
irootn , nnd glvoa thorn to his daughter ,
rho bride orders a few blankets to bo
spread before the groom , She Bits
lown nud ho puts his hand upon liar
lioad , Then the groom is given for
onoh of the parts of his body ono or
more blnnkots. Finally ho is given n
now blanket. After the bride's father
lias given a blanket to each Unncor nnd
to the drummer , the villagers nro in
vited to a great fonst. At this time
groom and bride ont for the first tlrao
together.
THEY CALLED THE BETA DRAW.
A Southerner nud a Westerner Differ
on the Gopher's llnhlia.
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

"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

"Groat Scottl Is th-vt so ? " crlod the
yostotnor. "Oolonol , I bog your par

anything but a pesky Httlo ground rat.

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.

Hatford Post : ' 'So your daughter

Fitv.roy in a patronizing sort of way.
"Yes , Arabella graduates this year und
will immediately begin her life woric. "
"What profession is she to enter ? " "Oh ,
I don't know , but I presume she will
teach her mother society manners for a
