Father Huntlncton.
Uov. Father Huntington of Now York wll
take charge of the ten days' mission at St.
Jtarnabns. Father Huntington is the son of
Dishop Huntington of the central New
York diocese , and Is a graduate of Harvard
university. In the presence of his father ho
und two other young priests were professed
some eight years ago by Uishop Potter of
New York as members ot the Order of the
Holy Cross , whoso mission it is to labor
among workingmcn. To further this end
they established the mission of the Holy
Cross in the leuament quarter on Avenue A.
inNow York city , wnore they have worked
fur tbo last six or eight years.
Father Huntlngtou advocated the election
of Henry Ooorgo us mayor of Now York.
He is well known In that city on account of
Ins radical advocacy of the single tux theory
and las work to ussmago und ameliorate the
doplprablo condition of New York's poor.
lib was a promising student , and declined
070 of the best livings in the gift of the
church to continue his chosen work. The
llrst heard of him in the west was at the
Spring valley coal mines during the recent
ulriko , where ha appeared nlono among the
infuriated miners , gave them the secret sign
of the Knights of Labor , showing tbat ho
was 0110 of them , and by his counsel and In
fluence prevented n treat amount of trouble.
The letters O. H. C' . . which ho writes i > . ! tcr
his name , signify that ho IB a member uf the
Order of the ? Holy Cross , a society the mem
bers of w I ) loll devote their time nnd energy
to tub betterment of the condition of thu
worthy poor.
Father Huntlngton has devoted couaidor-
nblo time toward the amelioration of tha
poverty Btrickon classes in Now
York who are huddled together In
tenement houses. lu a talk on that
subject , Father Hunhngton saya :
' "I'ho people of tbo west do not know so
much about tenement life as the citizens of
Now York , but In your western cities I huvo
soon Just as squalid poverty in tenements as
I have aver witnessed In the American'
metropolis.
"Thu principal ovll in .such n life Is that
the children must grow up u in lit .such sur
roundings. They nro never nlono and know
no privacy. Once when I was in a Now
v'ork tenement bouso I was with u httlo boy
In u room aud I went down stairs for n min
ute. Ho came running after mo und asked
if I wasn't coining right back. The llttlo
follow didn't know what It was to be alone.
"Thu children go to school nnd leisrn to
rend nnd write. The girl wants refinement
and cultivation und the boy has ambition.
'Neither can bo nurtured in such a placo.
People say , 'Tuko them to thu country , '
" 1 have tnkan u crowd of young boys to
the country but they bccumo homesick and
lonesome. They couldn't understand It ,
The mon can't better their condition for
lauk ot wage * . People say , 'Send thorn to
thu country and lot them get work.1 I know
what that Is. I dressed as n laborer mill
wept In to try that plan , and It was two
weous before. I could Una u placo. I would
have starved If it bad not been that I had
money in my pocket.
"Tho tenement house man gets married at
about twenty-two ycnrs ot ago. That's
about the only variation ot the monotony
there U In such a Ufa except dyine. The
youtip coupla buys some cheap furniture
With a Rlossy finish , a cheap clock und a
Jtttnlly Uiblu. too heavy fur use , and"go to
housekeeping. la a few mouths tha glosi
ou tha furniture gets worn off , the clock
Btopa and the family Blblo gets turnishod.
The baby come * and the husband has to
work bnriier to meet expenses , lie becomes
ucsimntlont , and so docs the wife , and they
begin to sink down , 10 that their children
urt | u Ufa lust as they did.
"Three solutions have boon offered us a
remedy to this ovll.- First , there is legisla
tion , the making of luwa regarding the
building of tonotuent houses. Second , tbo
plan of establishing small parks through the
city. Third , model tenement houses. For
the flrst plan I will any that legislation has
utterly failed. The park plan would only
servo to raise the price of 'rent In the tone-
moms nqar them and drive the very poor
still further dowc. The model tenement-
house plan has proved to bo an utter failure.
Thoru is only one plan and that is the single
tax. T have lived eight years in tenement
houses and know just how loathsome they
nro with the foul gas , the dust , the water 111
the collars anil tbo nuinbsrloss other ovils.
"Charity is no solution of the question , and
I don't bohovo in chantabla instituions.
They should do right by the people and return -
turn to them their right to-tho land which
they have made valuable. Th.o single tax
plan is , I consider , the only solution to this
all-absorbing question. "
During Father Huntlogton's stay hero ho
will speak two consecutive Sunday after
noons in the lio.vd opera house on tbo labor
question. 'By the courteous permission of
the Union Pacific authorities ho will address
the men at noon each day at the Union Pa-
clflo shops during his stay ,
4 Wuko Up.
The mooting1 of the "commission of bish
ops , " the seven Methodist Episcopal minis
ters appointed ut the last general conference-
to mnko final arrangements for the next general -
oral conference , will bo hold in Chicago m
May ;
In cnso Omaha has aufllciout money
pledged to pay the expenses of the conven
tion which nro estimated at $35,000 , the
commission will have nothing to do In the
promises. Hut , should Oinuha default , the
members of the commission will dccido
where the great conference shall bo hold.
As is known , grout pressure has been
brought to bcnr upon the commission by
other ambitious cities , and the general argument -
gumont presented by thorn Is that Omaha
cannot furnish ample accommodation for the
entertainment of the delegates. Every citi
zen of Omaha knows that this is not true ,
but the declaration of thcso envious cities
remains by proofs.
A largo committee of prominent citizens of
Ornulm was appointed to secure pledges for
the expenses of the conference , but oltlior
through inactivity or lack of co-operation ,
the members have been unable to secura
pledges for more than half the amount nec
essary to pay the expenses of the conference.
St. Louis. Chicago and other cities hnvo the
amount pledged already , and will duplicutu
If necoMiry , and If in the next BOVOII or
eight weeks sunlclmt money la not guar
anteed by Omaha she will lese the great
conference of the Methodist Episcopal
churches of the world In ISUiJ.
Oinulin Indian I'ri-Hhy
Rev. J. M. Wilson of the Casteilar street
Presbyterian church has bcon tit the Omuha
Indian agency the past week participating In
gospel meetings In progress thoro. The
agency is about t\volvo miles from Decatur
and the Presbyterians have a very flourish'
mg church there composed entirely of In *
dlana. I'ho building Is known as the Uluclc-
blrds1 Hill church. Nearly all the converted
Indians in the ugouoy are members of the
Presbyterian church.
Hov.Vilaon icpovts that a law and order
Icaguo is bolng formed by the aboriginoos on
tno reservation , the object of wblob is to
promote the general welfare of tbo QmaUaj
through the following moans :
1. Ity establishing the legal status of the
Omaha * under the laws of the United States
and the state of Nebraska.
3 , Uy securing the enactment of othr > r
laws to correct certain evil * arising fro n.
their transition state.
a. Hy encouraging tho. Indians to conform
to said laws.
4 , Uy protecting them In all the rights
and privileges Of citizenship.
5 , Uy educating public opinion and senti
ment among those who nro In any way con
nected with or Interested la thorn as to their
true condition and needs.
The other Omahas are urged by the mem
bers of the league to Icara what Is required
of tnom under the laws , and then conform
with tbo BUUIO , especially with those having
reference ) to the marriage relations , tnououd-
mg of children to school , -and the flalo and
use of intoxicating liquors.
Since the allotment of lands all bersoiis
married according to Indian custom aro' re
quired to got licenses and bo married accord
ing to the laws of Nebraska , and a violat ! on
of this law will bo followed with arrest and
prosecution.
The leagua urges the Indians to have their
marriages recorded In the county records to
secure the inheritance of wives and children.
Tlio New Al. U. Church.
The splendid now odlflco bsing erected by
the members of the First Methodist Episco
pal church at Twentieth and Davenport is
now under cover and will require only about
two more days of brick work , excepting that
on the towor. In about ten days , ' if 'the
weather permits , the plasterers can com-
inonco work on the interior , but this will not
bo done until the spring fairly opens.
The Interior of the building is to be fin
ished in oak and the seats are to match ,
Thursday Uov. P. S. Morritt signed the con
tract for the now pews , and ho says that
tboy are to bo models in bounty and solidity.
The basement , which is as largo and wall
lighted as most churches , will bo finished ,
flrst. The opening exorcises in that , room
will be held the second Sunday in Juno-
children's day. The occasion will bo/a mem
orable and historic ono in the carder of the
church.
The formal dedication of-tho structure will
not occur probably until September , when
the tower and all ether parts of the building
are finished. The cell lice will bo , a happy
combination of beauty und utility and will
bo a surpmo to the citizens wlicn It is com-
plotad.
Uiunlia Church Directorial.
The church directory has become a neces
sity to most large congregations , nndia num
ber of the most progressive pattortt.of the
city have caused such volumes to bo issued
with a complete list of their parlshonurs and
their place of residence. >
Advertisements sufficient to pay'tho cost
of issuing the edition are generally secured
and n handy book Is fitrni3hedrf6r nothing
except the labor of getting it up.
These directories provu of great service
both to the pastor and moinbors of the con
gregation in calling upon each othpr , . The
book * are madu so that they are easily , car
ried In the pocket and are ready for refer
ence any time a parson is visiting among
members of the congregation. Considerable
data is also contained in the books that Is
often doslred ana could not be secured other
wise without considerable trouble.
Probably the handsomest and most com.
ploto church directory in the city Is that got
ten up by Hsv. George M. Browu , the enter
prising pastor of the Ilnnscom Park Metho
dist cHurch. In addition to the list of names
and addresses there Is n history of the
church , a complete list of all thu otllcars of
the church , Sanday school and soclutfos of
the congregation. The book is neatly bouud
In oloth.
The directory of the First Congregational
church is in pamphlet form and is very
lumily , having the list of members first In
alphabetical or dor , then by streets and then
by blocks or buildings , the laU naniad clas
sification comprising , of course , the business
men of the congregation.
The directory of the Caxtollar , street
Presbyterian church , of which Uov. J. M.
Wilson is pastor , is similar to that of the
llanscom Park Methodist church in ar
rangement , but is smaller and In pamphlet
form.

Owl Creek I/ost n. School Ma'am , lint
Dutch Ncla.Gcit.n IJrIUe.
The people living1 on Owl crook , Fremont -
mont county , Wyoming' , 'aro having ft
great deal of trouble in getting school
ma'ams. Or , to bo more accurate , they
have a hard tim'o in keeping thorn , Not
lonjr ago a very satisfactory and alto
gether clmriniufr young woman who
bad been scoured titter considerable )
effort on the part of the school trustees
to take up her abode there and teach
the young idortg of Owl crook how to
shoot , caught'the eye of ono of the es
teemed citizens ot thotownship , and to
quote the laconic statement of another
esteemed citizen of the same . .Arcadian
precinct , "Tho Hon. Dutch Nola and
the school inarm was spliced. "
Another teacher was secured , but
she too has forsaken her hopeful
charges lor the path of inqtrimony. A
correspondent thus describes the nup
tials of the lion. Duteh Nols and School
Mann No. l-r
The school , on Owl crcok Is closed ,
and the school marm is , married. In
this und all ether new communities it is
a source of jrroat.rpublo to the inhabi
tants thereof to got a school started.
Our trustees , howevor. succeeded in
surmounting till the dilllcultios in the
way nnd procured a .voting lady teacher
but before she taught school a week sha
was engaged to bo married. At the
end of the flrst month eho gave , up
school to fulfill the ongngornont. At
the marrlugo of Sago Bruali Nance the
squire had to have the brldo roped and
tied down before ho could prounud with
the coromony. In this case there waa
no trouble- that score.
Tlio squlro and Dutch Ned were ab
sent on the round-up when the bride
secured the license from the county
clerk. Armed with this document , she
procured a man nnd team und'started to
hunt them up. V/hon tilio got to the
Big Horn river , .vliicli ia the county
line , aho found that they hud crossed
over und wuro on the eve of
*
starting"toChicago with the bcef.i
Nothing daunted she got tlio "driver
to unhitch , take ono of the team-horses
und scour the udjoining mountains for' '
the squire and groom. This was no
easy task , the driver having no aaduie.
But , tnking into consideration thu im
portance of the occasion , ho persevered
and flnally succeeded in finding them
about lifteon miles tram the river.
Nols succeeding in inducing' the
squire to go back into his
own county and tie the knot ,
us it could not bo done on that aide of
the river.
Calling the boys together tlio 'squiro
informed thorn that there was going to
bo a wedding and for these who wished
to see it to come along. At this the
boys turned the herd loose nnd started
on a run for the river. The squire says :
"Boys , this won't do. All of you who
