Thursday afternoon tnat will cause him to bo remernlicrod in at least ono more resilience in this city with feelings that will not bo com plimentary to him. When the Harrison street alarm of lire was sounded and the hose carts went flying up Vine street there was naturally a good deal of excitement on that quiet residence thoroughfare. It was on the ofllcor's beat nnd ho followed the crowd near the tail cad of the procession. "When ho was passing the residence ) of Mrs. Fcnn , n widow with several affectionate little children , on the corner of Vine and First streets , n little hip do belonging to the children had become excited by the uproar and when the plethoric olUcormmo pulllni ? along his buggy blue trousers nnd .swJnglngclub drove the dog Into a frenzy and ho slipped through the fcnoo and fastened his too teeth In the hem of the blue breeches. The ofllecr pulled his club and the littlochildren , rushed to his rescue , but the "dog was not deterred. In fact ho concealed himself in thiVK \ of thuolllcer's trousers or the children would have found him and there would hnvo been no bloodshed. The policeman held Ids club with one hand and drew his revolver with llio other und when the toy dog finally became visible lie placed tlio inmlo ol his gun wlthiu three inches of tlio center of the midget's back and ilred ailS-callbro bullet through it. There- wasn't much left of the dog but the hole made by the bullet , but ho drugged himself to the door and died in the arms of the heart broken children. The ofllccr claimed the dog had bitten him In Justification of the wanton murder of the childien's pot , but when lie attempted to show the wounds to seine of the indgnant spectators thoiu was not a scratch to bo s.een. It is claimed that bv actual measurement the dog was four nnd three-quarter inches long anil weighed Just nineteen ounces. The onlecr weighs about : MO ] x > und and his club anil revolver would either outweigh the dog. If you wish to sell your property rail on the Judd iS : Wells Co. , C. B.

He took the boy before Judge Carson in chambers and naked the Judge to consign him to the care of the state. The father desired the boy to bo sent to t ho institute for feeble minded children at Glenwood , but the Judge , after examining the lad , concluded that ho was not a lit sub ject for that eleemosynary institution , but that the proper place for him was at the state reform school at Eldora. It is probable that ho will bo sent there today if the father still persists in the declaration that the child Is in corrigible. Ciimo lloro to Die.

At 10 o'clock diplomas were conferred upon the members of the young people's ' nnd children's classes in the tabernacle. After short addresses on Sunday school worlc , by Dr. Hurlbut mul Mrs. Kennedy the cere mony of distributing the parchments to the Ittlooucs was gone through with. At 11 o'clock Hev. NVlllard Scott of Omaha , presi dent of the assembly , lectured on "Begin nings of This \Vest. \ " A part of his Sitato- inents follow ! The first American settlers found thrco distinct races of Indians the Moullliint , the Algonnulns , and the [ rnniols. The latter branch was the most powerful. "While tbo country was thus jct'iipled thrco touches were made upon It. Ono by DeSota , ono by Coromulo and ono by James Curtlers. At this time European lodgment was effected in Canada only , Tno i'uritnnsnnd llollinders smote the Alpon- quins and won the friendship of tbo lio- iiuois. In the beginning of this country thcro stood in the valley of New York nn Iroquols Indian , battle front which enabled the whiles to secure n foothold in the eastern portion of our country. Every adventure on this country was begun with the bearing ahead of the cross. The entire Mississippi valley bec.uno French through the Influence of missionaries : 1T4S found most of the Mississippi rctfion French , and most of the country cast of that English , Soon after Englishmen attempted to sur vey tlio French region. This wus resisted by the latter nation. Both , countries strove for the possession of the forks of the Ohio river. Prance was successful. Constant bickerings led to the French and Indian war , which win a strife between France and Eng land on American soil. At the conclusion of the war Franco hud not a foot of American soil and she has never siuec pos sessed any. After the French ami Indian war the In dians were left to light Englishmen , who in tuin fought among themselves. The third step In the formation of our nation was the achieving of indepoudenoo by the colonies. There were two forces cn ugcd m this e.irly time of our nation's formation the regula tion soldier and the. "buckskin" pioneer. The latter developed our \\e3ter.i . country. The fourth force in the formation of our nation was tlio diplomacy of John .Tuy , S.nn- \icl Adams and other men of their character. \Vhen the colonies Jiwt tried to form a nation they discovered ditllcultics which could not bo adjusted , \Vo were never on the eve of a crisis as great us Unit which existed in ITS ! ! . The only possible thing which offered a solu tion to the problem was the northwest terri tory. The cutting of live states from the northwest territory was the only thing which made our constitution possible. It is our duty to perpetuate tholand-whleh our forefathers made , and which we possess. Unless wo do this , in the providence of God , wo must take , our way from It. If there Hews a Jordan to submerge us wo need no beacon of Canaan to guide us. Mr. Bellamy hai got somewhere , but has iiot furnished the Items of his journey. - Not revolution but evolution will develop our nation. If wo cannot depend on tbc in tegrities of our nationality wo cannot keep our phico in the family of nations. Let us depend on faith and hope and prayer , not forgetting to looit to our own actions. Let us stand justified In the sight of God. " At'Jo'clock n grand concert under tbo di rection of Dr. Pahrcr occurred In the taber nacle. Following was the pregrammo : 1. Antlioni-Strlko tbc Cymbal.

The HI nil's Cou.vcu * Bi.fjrr ? , In. , July 11. [ Spe cial to TUB Br.i : . ] Tlio eleventh day of the Council Bluffs and Omaha Chautaun.ua had n programme full of good things , yet thcro was nothing so sensational ns has characterized some other dnys , and there was only a fair at tendance , the crowds resting after the crush of the Talinngo day. Dean Wright of Boston gave another of his bible studies. He Is one of the most enter taining men among all the gifted ones in the corps of teachers nnd lecturers. To the average audience a blblo exposition has no gro.it tendency to nrouso any outbreaks of enthusiasm. Dean Wright Is , however , able to frequently stir even such n cold , crit ical gathering Into nn almost involuntary out- bimt of npplauso. He Is keen , sharper than a two-edgod sword at times , Is ii'ady to an- s wcr as well as to usk questions , nnd crowds a great deal Into a few minutes. Ho has a quaint way of nutting things , a vein of humor and ho knows how to use It as a relief from deeper thinking or as a help la making a point clear. Kogurs * band give moro of its excellent music. . ' Leon II. Vincent gave ono of his finely polished lectures -"Tennyson. . " Hols pro nounced by many the most scholarly man on thii programme. Certain it Is that these who enjoy real literary treats hear him as often as possible. In the evening Prof. Underbill gave read ings from "Tlio Rivals. " The uuillcnco seemed to enjoy this entertainment. In some respects Prof. Underbill Is proving himself to bo an artist in hi.s lino. Ho does not hold up to 1'rof , Cumnock , who was hero last year. Saturday promises ( ( rich treat In the form of u lecture by Dr. Hrnson on "Fools. " Dr. Henson Is ono of tlie" wittiest men on the plat form. Ho delights' 'mi audience nnd to the minds of many Is far. more enjoyable than Tidmago , although 1m docs not draw as big crowds and Is not over advertised. There will bo n morning lecture by Leon Ylncont and in the evening thcro will bo a concert by the assembly chorus , Mm , Wads- worth , Prof , Case mid the Rogers band. TIII3 OITV COUNOir , .

D.clslve Action InkMi by the Omaha AIvdlu.il . * outoty. A special meeting of the Omaha Medical society was held at the Puxton last night for the purpose of considering the question of medical legislation. The meeting was called by Vice President B. F. Crummer , who stated the object of the meeting. City Physician Clarke Onpon nddrossed\ho society , reviewing briefly the monstrous case of criminal negllijenco which had lately been called to the attention of the public , and ex pressing the lilc.i th.it the present was the best time to take some notion to secure the passage of laws which would prevent the practice of medicine by quack and Ignorant people who knew absolutely nothing of the duties they had the audacity to attempt to perform. The matteV was ono which de manded the attention of thu mcdlc.il pro fession. Dr. Mllroy , the president , arrived and took the chair. He addressed the meeting briellv , referring to the necessity for action on the part of the profession. Ho spnko of the great extent of the quackery in this city. IIo hud hnd occasion to look over the register in thu county clerk's oitlco and was astonished to Und the number of persons who practice medicine , who , us a matter of fact , have ncvor studied medicine ut all or else claim as their alma matur an Institution which Is not recognized as having any standlhg. Dr , Crummer endorsed the remarks of the previous speakers nnd hoped that some action would bo taken at once to suppress the practice which was becoming so prevalent. County Attorney Mahoney was present by Invitation and explained the laws of the state which bear upon the question under con sideration.Vhen ho heard of the death of Mrs. Lemon it at once occurred to him that the llrst thing to do was to prefer charges against Mis. Fenn. Upon comultim. ' the statutes , however , he found that the penalty for practicing without being registered was a line of from 520 to $100 , and therefore caino under the jurisdiction of the city attorney. He made the explanation , ho said , because ho had heard that the medical gentlemen were oTtlio opinion that ho hud been derelict in his duty. Anyone had the right to prosecute Mrs. Fenn for practicing medicine on the day of Mi-s. Lemon's death , or at any other time , provided they could make the proof. This [ iroscciitlou could bo repeated day after day as long as the party continued lo practice , and the practice could bo made n pretty ex pensive business. Mr. Malioney said ho had tried to bring this awful thing under the statute of man slaughter , but bad concluded that this could not bo done. The section of this statute to which ho had referred wns the only ono under which Mrs. Fenu could bo prosecuted. Mr. Beckett , an attorney , hail been re quested to present n statement of tlio law ns It stands , and read to the society a concise statement showing the meaning of tbo law. According to this statement no person can practice medicine in Nebraska except ho bo a graunato of a legally chartered Institu tion having authority to confer the degree of ' doctorof medicine. " Every person begin ning thu practice of modicum must register as a physician in the ofllco of tbo county clerk , giving a number of facts relative to the length of time the physician bus practiced , when und where ho graduated , and a number of other details. Any porsoit practicing medicine icino without possessing tlio qualifications above enumerated , shull bo deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and lined not less than SUOnor moro than § 101) ) . The most important part of the state ment wns tnat bearing upon the meaning of the term "practitioner. " The term was do- lined as inclining "any person who shall pub licly profess to bo a physician or ob stetrician , or prescribe for tlio sick. " This definition would include clairvoyants , mesmerists , electricians and Christian scien tists who publicly profess to trcntdiseasoand who give directions nnd advice to thu sick , whether they use medicine or not. Tbo matter was thoroughly discussed by those present , and the president was author ized to appoint a committee to investigate violations of the law regulating the pructleo of medicine and act for the society la ascer taining such violations and prosecute of fenders under the law. The committee was empowered to employ legal or clerical assist ance to assist in the prosecution und an as sessment was made to defray the necessary ex nouses. The president appointed on that committee Dra. Crumincr , Gapen , Moore , Bridges and ypaldlng. Tbls completed the business of tbo evening and the meeting adjourned. WISHED WASHINGTON' JHAI > . A Pennsylvania Senator so Set Ilinibclf Down in Ilia Diary. This was tlio dny assigned for Presi dent Washington to deliver his speech , and was attended with nil the bustle und hurry usual on such occasions , wrote Senator Maclny of Pennsylvania in his diary , which the Now York Sun Is nub- llflhfng. The President wus dressed in black and road his speech well enough , or at leiifat tulerbly. After ho had gm\o , the hontito only remained , our vice i > re > - idunt ( John Adams ) Hcomod to tuko great pains to road it ( tlio buoeeli ) bolter. If no had such a view ho succeeded ; hut the difl'ci'onco between them amounted to this : One might ho considered as at homo and the other in a strange com pany. The speech was. committed. Let mo return to the president ( Wash ington ) . Does ho really look like a man who outers Into the wplritof his employ. mcntV Docs ho show that he received It in trust for the happiness of the people , and not us fee simple for his own emolu ment'1 ! Time nnd practice will , perhaps , bent elucidate this point. "WhonthoaffairBof Franco wore talked of I said national assembly hail attacked royalty , nobility , hierarchy nnd the has- tile altogether , mid scoineil likely to de molish the whole. The vlco president ( John Adams ] Hiild It was Imposslblo to destroy nobility ; It was founded In naturo. Wyngato engaged. The vlco president's arguments wcro clrnwn from the respect shown to the sons of eminent men , although vicious nnd undeserving. When the parties had nearly oxhuusted themselves , I asked whotlior our Indians might not bo considered as having de vised nn excellent method of gutting rid of thin prejudice by ranking all of tlio children after tlio uiothor. This sent oil the matter In a Hinllo. Adams , however , never wns cured or Is relapsed Into his nobllimanla. This was lovco day , nnd I of couivo dressed nnd did tno needful. It iw an Idle tiling , but what Is the life of men but folly , and this Is perhaps as inno cent as any of them , as far as respects thu persons acting. The practice liow- over , consiileivd as | i feature of royalty , is certainly iintl-reptibMcan. Tills cer tainly chcapos nobody. The royalists glory In It m n point gained. Kopub- llcanh are hoi-no down by fashion and a fear of being uhnrgcil with a want of ro- Hiiect for General Washington. If there Is tmwm In the wish I retract it. but would to God this Hiuno Genorral Wash ington wore in heaven , Wo would not then have him brought forward as the constant cover to every uneonstitutional and it-republican agt. Diver Smith's Climn Call. Charles 1) . Smith , u professional dlvor of 1'onsufoln , Fin , , had u narrow escape from a horrible deatlt the other day. Ho was about fourteen feet under water making an examination of the barge Mexico belonging to thu Export i-oal company , whoa the pump which furnished ulr for the diving suit sud denly gave out , anil would not work at all , says the Siivaimh NOWH. The pump tender realized lit a moment the dnnger in which the diver was plaoo , and draw Smith to llio top as quickly us possible. Hero the tender scl/.inl a Inuumor that lay conveniently by nnd smashed the thick glass that covered the diving face into htnlthercens. Ho was not a moment too soon. In a few moro seconds Smith would have been a dead man. lie was gmplng for breath as the glass wns broken , several pieces of which ho swallowed , which may yet provo fatal. It was several minutes aflor the man wns brought to the deck of the barge before ho regained consciousness. .Mctllciiin iiiTlilbct.
