A lanro number of friends ac companied the funeral party on their suu mission. Miss Nora Glcnson died at 0 o'clock last evening at her homo on South Third street , of hemmorhuco of the lungs , after an illness of only two duys. The deceased was but nineteen years of age , and leaves a wide circle of young friends to mourn her loss. The funeral will tuko place to-morrow , but the time Is not yet llxcd. The council will dcvoto considerable time this evening to discussing the location for n ' new city hall. It is expected that several propositions be submitted by the owners of different sites , who would like to secure tno location of the now building. It is under stood that there are a nnmb r of parties who would bo greatly tickled to sco it coma tholr way , as the erection of the prooosed struc ture would greatly enhance tho. value. of ad jacent property. The No. 3 hook nnd ladder truck was called out yesterday afternoon , but not to u flro , An awning over one of Elsoman' largo show windows was broken by the high wind , nnd fell in such a position as to greatly endanger the glass.

JJell Smith was run in yesterday afternoon for drunkuness. Smith has an unenviable reputation with the police , and is the same party who was arrested hero and held to the federal grand jury for counterfeiting. Ho is a bad man and .the police are determined that ho shall not run at largo in the Bluffs. Ho struck town Saturday night , but by dodging through the alloys succeeded in keeping out of tlio way for about eighteen hours. The order in his cuso is always "out of town or Into the town. " The ball game at Fan-view park yesterday afternoon between the Odclls and the City Steam Luundiy nlno , of Omaha , resulted In a victory for the visitors by u score of 11 to 7. It was a fairly interesting game up to the last Inning , when the visitors rolled up six runs. The Odolls then went to bat for tiioir last half , nnd when a man was declared out nt the plato , a howl went up , It being alleged that the catcher dropped the ball , and the homo team refused to continue. It was a great kicking exhibition throughout , nnd would have dlsgrnced a country town , oven as it disgusted the thirty people who dropped a quarter In the slot to get in.

Dr. Oooloy'a Ideas of Future Punishment. PLEASURE AT FAIRMOUNT PARK. Itnmiuot nt the Now Owlon Two lirnsnr Follntva N'otliliip Now of the Murder Personal anil Minor Mention. The Nature of Fiituro Punishment. The llcv. Dr. Cooley delivered the second of the scries of discourses on future things nt the First Baptist church last evening. The diicourses have awak ened a great deal of interest nnd the church was xvell lilted. The subject was "Tho Nature of Future Pdnlsh- mcnt , " und was based upon Matthew 25:41-40 : : "then shall Ho say also to them upon the left hand , Depart Irom Mo ye no- cursed , into everlasting ilh ) , prepared for the devil and his angels , * * * And these shall go away Into everlasting punUntncnt , but ttio righteous Into life eternal. " Everyone ono who has seriously thought of the other world la conscious of desiring to know not only the fact of future punishment but also Its character. This desire implanted in our nature God has made provision In ills word to satisfy , nnd it is to this source alouothat wo can look for certainty In this matter , The first characteristic of this punishment Is that It will bo one of condemnation. The very Idea of punishment Im plies this. AVe must bo sentenced buforo wo are punished. The condemnation of the sinner begins with his sinning. "Ho that boliovuth not Is condemned al ready , because ho has not believed In the Son of God. " This condemnation rests upon the unbeliever all through his life In this world , it follows htm through the inter mediate state , and comes with him to thu judgment seat of Christ nt the last day , where there is to bo a public adjudication for an assembled universe. There hu will receive a public and formal sentence , but it will bo substantially the same In kind ns ihc ono resting upon 1,1m thus far through his course of sin. Then it will bn no longer n private matter between him und God , but it will be proclaimed In the ears of all , and every eye shall see its justice. Then also their sentence will bo fully carried into exe cution aad the sinner experience all the con sequences of his guilt. This condemnation will greatly increase his sufferings. To realize forever that we are condemned , and Hint our condemnation Is Just and is known to all will bo most dinicult to endure. If wo could hide our shame In some secret place , and no ono know it , it would bo a great alle viation of our misery , but this cannot bo. In that world to which we are Hastening there is no obliteration of the past , and we also have reason to believe that though a wide I'Ulf separates the wicked from the righteous yet they will recognize each other , that the saved will sco ttio mis ery of tge lost , and tliusu will see the happi ness of the blest. The second cnaracteristio of future pun ishment is that it will be a conscious punUh- munt. We can conceive of punishment whcro all consciousness Is lost. In military executions where a man is shot by a number ot balls through the heart , but little pain 13 felt und there is instant cessation of all con sciousness. Such a punishment is far loss dreaded than when death Is experienced by lingering torture. It Is on account of this fact that some of late years have tried to prove that the punishment of the wicked will bo un unconscious one , that the sen tence of the condemned > soul will bo an eternal sleet ) . Let us in examination of this question look first at the expression of our text , "everlasting panishmeht. " The Greek equivalent for this word is 'torment" be cause fear has torment. Fear causes and possesses conscious misery. Plato uses the same word to describe one subjected to corrective punishment. Acaiu wo find these words , "Cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness , etc. " Christ speaks of the wicked being cast into unquenchable lire or outer darkness , or simply out of the kingdom of God. Tno effect is always the saaie , nowhere destruc tion of consciousness , but everywhere in tense misery. This state of misery is always represented as fixed Between us and you there is a great gulf fixed , so that they who would pass hcnco to you can not , neither can they pass to us that come from thence. The biblical moaning of the word death brings us to the same conclusion. Adam was told , "In the day thou eatesttherof thou shall surely die. " If the death of the body alone was meant the threatened penalty was not executed , for our llrst parents lived nearly a thousand years after their dis obedience. Either God did not keep his word with thorn or tholr death was something different from the death of the body , and this wus the death of the xoul , The very moment they transgressed God's law they were estranged from Him. Their Joy m Uod wus destroyed und union between thorn and God broken up. This is being dead in trespasses and in Bins. The body separated from the soul dies. Death is separation , but never is death annihilation. The dead In sins are conscious and nave their various sinful pleasures. So , in eternal death there will bo the most intense con sciousness. The figure of the fire that is never quenched suggests the most intense consciousness. No one could bo sleepy erin in a semi-conscious state while wrapped in flamed or the worm gnawing upon him. The third characteristic of future punlsh- mc'nt is that it will bo ono of intense misery. This is seen first In the more vivid consciousness we there shall enjoy. A litllo child who has lost his father , while he is not conscious of tils loss , will grieve but little , while the mother will bo well nign. inconsola ble. So in spiritual tilings. When In this world of despair the lost realize what they have done and cast away all hopes of heaven and neclectlm ; every offer of salvation , their anguish will bo insupportable. Every des cription of the lost in the bible gives the idea of intense suffering. The walling and the gnashing of tooth which Is declared again aud again to bo the employment of lost spirits , forces the conviction that the punishment of the lost will be most terrible. The stnoico of tboir torment ascending up forever and ever Is a liguro of the most Intense wretchedness. To bo cast into outer darkness where the sight of thu joy and happiness within is over present to the banished soul is enouirh to cause the keenest pangs of remorse. When that cc- contrio but honest man , John Randolph , lay on his deathbed ho suddenly arrousod him self und shouted , "Remorse I" "Uemorso. " Ho then insisted that the word should bo written so bo could see it , and looking Bto.idfustly upon it the dying man exclaimed , "Uomorso. " You have uo Idea what it. Is. It has contributed to bring me to my present situation , but I have looked to the Lord Jesus and hope I have received pardon. This remorse may bo the worm that never dies. I believe It is. The fourth characteristic of the punish ment is one of banishment. "Depart from me , ye accursed. " How the old Greeks and Romans feared this kind of punishment , we have but to road tholr various authors. Clcoro could never bo happy out of Homo. Those condemned to Siberia re gard themselves as great sufferers. Banish ment is next to death , so will the condemned soul feel at the last day , only a thousand fold more intensely. To bo banished from heaven , to bo deprived of all happiness , will make the coul most wretched , were there no lake of lire , no undying worm. This alone will be suflicieut to cause overwhelming uyony. and this soiitcnco every ono 'Who rejects Christ must bear. The ilUh characteristic is that It will bo eternal. The bible makes no discrimination as to the fact of eternal cxistonco between the righteous und the wicked. The word rendered everlasting is the same Greek word as rendered eternal when speaking of the blesseduesn of the righteous , YOB , the soul condemned for rejection of Christ Is con demned forever , and must suitor the consequences quences , Once consigned to perdition there is no respite , once lost the soul Is lost forever. This is why Paul soys : "Knowing the terror of the Lord wo persuade men. " Ho knew it was a terrible thing to fall Into the bauds of the living God , hence hU zeal in preaching the gosiiel to the perishing. Because we fully beilevo in the eternal punishment of the ungodly wo seek by every means to induce you to accept Christ and his salvation. l nt thu Now O i. Landlord Etter of the New Oidon dined n number of prominent members of the board ot trade and representatives of the press yesterday at thnt populnr hostolry. Certain reports , derogatory tx > the hotel , hnvo boon circulated among traveling men , and It was desired to have prominent busi ness men Investigate the mailer. After p.ir- Inning of a splendid dinner , the guests In * spooled the hotel , after which they adjourned to the parlors whore a sotot resolutions were formulated to bo presented at the meeting of the board of trade this even ing. ing.The resolutions , after being adopted by the brurd , will bo called to the attention of the various wholcs.ilo houses sending represen tatives to the city. The business men of the Bluffs object , nnd with good reason , to traveling men bestowing tholr patronage on Omahn hotels , while doing business in this city , when they can secure llrst class accom modations on this side or the river. Several theater companies , which occasionally mtvko the Bluffs , might well bo given a wholesome lesson of the same character. Fitlrmount Park.

Notwithstanding the dust and dirt that filled the air yesterday , the streets presented quite nn animated appearance , and a largo number of visitors wore to bo seen in Fair- mount park. They spent the day , however , In the lower part of the park , as the wind blow uncomfortably hard over the tops of the bluffs. . In the city tup dirt made life out of doors anything but comfortable , as the streets had not boon sprinkled for a couple of days , and the dust was at the disposal of the healthy zephyrs , which whirled it about with the most utter disregard of human wishes and results. There were very few visitors nt the lake , nnd the appairaucos indicate that the season there is drawing rapidly to a close. It has boon a suc cessful ono , and ono with which the parties most interested lecl quite well satisfied. Plans are already being madowith reference to next season , ana now attractions will bo secured to make it a'more popular resort than over. The scheme to get up n rogattn fell through from lack of encouragement , but it will bo revived for next year , und by proper attention given earyl In the spring1 , it is hoped to secure a mooting hero ot several of the noted oarsmen of the country.

There came very nearly being a fatal ele vator accident in the now Eiecman building last even in t' . Louis Ottcnhcimer , ono of Mr. Eisnmun's relatives , was leaning over the elevator shaft from the third floor talk ing to come ono below. The elevator had boon run up to the fourth floor and had re mained there some time , and the supuositlon was that nobody was near it. Suddenly it started down rapidly and noiselessly , and the first intimation Mr. Otteuhoimer had of ils presence was a thump on the head. He was knocked against the railing and crushed down upon It , but the boy who was bringing it down had caught sight of him and stopped the ponderous ma chine. If It hud gene n foot further ho would have been bohoadcd of else thrown headlong into the shaft. Fortunately he was only slightly hurt. The elevator Is not yet com pleted or the accident could not have hap pened. For fear there should bo an acci dent the Messors.

[ Special to THIS BISK. ] The trip from Colorado Springs on the Denver & Rio Grnmlo rnllrond to Pueblo HOB along a bonutlM llttlo mountain stream , the Fountnino qui Buvillo. The sumo magnificent scenery greets the eye thnt charms the traveler between Denver nnd the Springs. There nro the same lofty mountains nnd deep gorges , having the sumo grand outlines , yet never the same. They form a panorama of beauty that never grows old to the intelligent mind. Evur and anon a well-kept ranch nestling in the foothills lends an nir of homo life to the scone. It was just 8:30 : when the train pulled into Pueblo , the young Pitteburg of the west. The scintillating rays of the cloc- trio light chase back the gathering shadows. The bolls on a score of en gines clanged and .the short , sharp whistles of the answering locomotives proclaimed the fact thnt this is u great railroad center. The hungry passen gers hurried into the great Rating- house for suppor. Few people who have visited this part of the west have not heard of the big eating house at Puoblo. Over twelve hundred passengers arc fed each day , and the cash receipts are $000 daily. Tlio passenger trains from , the llftoon railroads centering hero make this great restaurant , at least once each day the year around. The eating houses and hotels in the towns along tills grant scenic route enjoy a liberal patron ago from the trading public. Occasionally asmnll village is almost deluged with hungry tourists. One of these occasions I witnessed at the village of Castle Rock. The train was delayed by a washout for a couple of hours. The con ductor obligingly told the passengers that those of tliora who were hungry would luvvo ample time to got supper while the train was waiting. In a jilly the train load of passengers were rushing down the street toward the hotol. Sjon two small hostelries were brim full and running over , and as one relay of hungry mortals sat down after another , the chance for a square meal for the balance became slimmer and beautifully less. At last the bill of faro was reduced , to liver and smear case. Fortunately , at this juncture , the bell rang the iiignal to stnrt in time to gave the castle guarded city from hav ing to breakfast on cactus and Colorado o/.ono. Aflor a good night' * rest I was out early on a tour of inspection over this booming young western city. Boarding one of the many street car lines u ride of a mile or more carried mo past tlio elegant business IIOUSRS whoso closed doors stood mutnly waiting in the early light for the day's wortc to begin. Even the watorinollon had not taken its place on the front shelf , of the grocery. But the horso-motor has crossed the viaduct over the still network of rails and is now bowling along the "Masa" above the city. From this elevation the view is a grand one. Pueblo seems like a city sot into a plain , banded with the flowing Arkansas as with a broad rib bon of silver and guarded by the snow crowned mountains at her margin. The buildings present a substantial appear ance. Scarcely n , frame building is seen , nearly all being built of brick or the picturesque red sandstone of Colo- ndo. Many of the public buildings tower far above their surroundings like Fontinels watching over the workers below. The tall church spires and the towers of the elegant school buildings which greet the eyes on every hand are an index of the character of her citizens. The state hospital for the insane , just completed on the north side , is one of the largest nnd handsomest buildings in Colorado. Pueblo has some beautiful homes , these of some of the mining kings being almost palatial in their proportions , and the cottages , which nro nearly nil huilt of brick , are neat and homo hko. The reader should not confound the Pueblo of twenty years uco with the Pueblo of to-day. Then business was stagnant' ' and the "adobe" mansion reigned su premo. To-day everything appeals now. The city has wealth , avast trauo , a teeming population and the biggest building boom in the west. The ' 'old maid" has dropped her calico gown , she has put on the silken robe and with plenty of money in her inside pocket is n catch for any suitor. The real estate man is hero with his glib tongue and two minute horso. His Dundee Place sounds wonderfully familiar to Qinuhu ears. The stakes of the new additions reach far out from the city's gates. But the mountains of ore , her whirring fac tories and the busy homo builders are close at his heels and soon the farthest .stakes will mark the center - tor of population for the Pueblo of the future. Pueblo is purely a commercial and manufacturing city and is rightly named the Pittsburg of the West. Within easy distance are the most extensive coal Holds in the world ; near her are vast mountains of iron ore , while oxhaustlcss mines of gold , silver , copper and lead Ho all around her. To'rthoso grand natural resources recent discoveries have added vast Holds of petroleum. One well now in operation ilowf 1,000 barrels of oil per day. Add to this the fact that it is n down-hill haul to Pueblo from ovary mine in this rqglon , and you have tin array of natural resources seldom equaled , * " The largest stcql works in the world are located here , und the smelting in terests of this city uro very extensive , The three largest smelters are the Philadelphia mnoltor , tlio Colorado smelter and the Pueblo Smelting and Refining company. Among the larger manufactories are the large stool works , the Colorado coal and Iron works , the Lannon foundry and Sterns , Rodgers & Co. 'a mining machinery company. The mines supply most excellent cooking coal , as well ns lime nnd other ma terials necessary for the reduction of ores. The material resources of this pluco deeply impressed Jay Gould and callo forthd from him the remark that Pueblo was destined to become the greatest mining and manufacturing city in the United States. Pueblo can scarcely bo classed among the pleasure resorts of Colorado , and yet she has vary respuutnblo claims in that direction. They have several mineral springs and an artisan well whoso waters possess marlcod medicinal qualities. Just about one milo out from the city is u beautiful lake of fair di mensions , with steam , yucht and nail boats , dancing puvilipn , etc. , with a broad boulevard lauding out to it. This IB also the point from whore the tourists start to visit the Royal gorge , on the Arkansas rlvor , ono ot the most magnifi cent natural spectacles in the known world. Coupled with these places of Interest , Pueblo possesses nn unrlvolod cllmato , which with its other ad vantages , make It n perfect homo for its U6,000 citizens , and a veritable sani tarium for the nillnc of other climes. C. D. TllOMl'SON. The Avery Onk. The "AveronU' ' is an nnolont tree which stands oi ; land now owned by J. W. Clark , Dodham , Mass. , and whcro once stood the house of Deacon Avery , after whoso nnmo the tree was called. It is much older than the town , which is 2-53 years old. It measures sixteen foot in circumference near the bottom of the trunk. Its top hns bcc'n much twisted nnd torn by the storms of cent uries , but the tree is btlll ohorished ns n proud specimen of the stately growth of Its old companions of the forest. Seventy dollars was offered for It to bo used for timber In building the frigate Constitution , but refused by the owner. The trco is imprihtod upon the town seal. It has boon presented to the Ded- ham Histodcnl society by Air. Clark. The O'SuHlviuiH Are Com In jr. The O'Sulllvans nro coming. There nro twonty-sovon of thorn in the family father , mother and twenty-five sons and daughters. Nora O'Sullivan , the youngest member of the family , a ilaxon-haired miss of fifteen yours , was at the Mission of Our Lady of the Rosaro at Castle Garden the other day. She informed Rev. Father Callahan that she had left her father , mother , thirteen sisters and eleven brothers in County Kerry , Ireland. Nora said , further , thnt two of her brothers were twins and three of her sisters triplets. She hopes to see the whole family in the United States early next spring.
