Result of CommiHsloncr Tlmmo's Trip
to llonvcr.
County Commissioner George Tlmmo , who
uttcmlou the trans-Mississippi congress at
Denver , 1ms returned , nnd aside from watch
ing the transaction of business , nuida seine
observations regarding county nffulrs. Ho is
well pleased with the city , but does not re
gard Denver ns in ucli of a metropolitan elty
ns Omaha. Ho found narrow streets , all of
which are wholly unpaved.
In speaking of tuxes and assessments no
states that the valuation of Denver , for as
sessment ) iurposos , Is placed at 811.000,000 ,
Which ho thinks is about one-third of the
nctuul valuation of tha city and county. Upon
this valuation the levy Is 11 mills for county
purposes , which makes the taxes much higher
than here , wlioro the property is assessed at
one-llftccMith of its valuation mid a levy of 14
tnilU made on this.
Mr. Timmo claims that the people are cry-
incr against high taxes and have but little to
show for the money so ralsod.
Wo are showing an elegant line of
millinery at our now location.

Odd "lircakH" in Prayers.
A Baptist deacon who was very sick
was made tlio subject of prayer at a
Wednesday evening mooting , reports
the Now York Horald. Ono of tlio
brethren , when called upon to pray ,
alarmed the audience by savintr , "Wo
thank Thco , O Lord , that Deacon D. is
sick. Wo pray Thee that ho may die ,
that ho may die and go to h , for wo
all know , O Loid , that If ho should go to
h ho would break up the whole insti
tution inside of three days. " For the
truth of this statement the Rev. C. Do
Wilt Bridgman is responsible.
It is bald that many years ago ttio
prayers of tlio First Piesbyterlnn
church , Princeton , wore asked on behalf
of nn aged lady who was not oxpoetetl to
recover. The elder who led the devo
tions earnestly prayed "that she might
bo restored to" health and strength and
once moro go about llko a roaring lion ,
seeking whom she might devour. " Tlio
truth of this may not ho satisfactorily
vouched for , but the Rev. Dr. William
Aikmnn , formerly pastor of the Spring
utroot church , allirmo that he once at
tended a prayer mooting in Now Jersey ,
and ono of the brethren culled upon
prayed that they might all go forth as
"calves of the stall" and bo inndo "moat
for the kingdom of lioavon. "

TlilH Year.
The Nebraska turnbezlrk Is making
excellent progress In the athletic work
peculiar to that organisation.
Loss than four years ago the Gorman
tumors of Nebraska had no distinctive
state organization. Indeed , in a number
of the larger eitlos , which have numbers
of young and vigorous Germans , there
was oven no local organization. The es
tablishment of the bc/.lrk , however ,
jrought together the local vorolns
which had had a feeble existence , in-
'uscd vigor into them and led to the or
ganization of several branches through
out the slate. As n coiiboqucnco , the
German turner , today , Is more proud of
the objects of his association than hoover
ever was before. lie feels that it
gives promise of being perpetuated ,
ind that , as a consequence , It shall con
tinue to develop the physical manhood
as the schools ho patronizes have de
veloped the Intellectual.
Tlio bo/irk now Includes vorolns in the
cities of OmahaWest Point , Sioux City ,
Lincoln , South Omaha , Nebraska nity ,
Fremont , Columbus and Grand Island.
Several of those societies have female
classes for young women and girls , which
aioalbo in excellent condition.
All of these voreins will meet in the
annual turnfest which is to be hold in
Fremont commencing Thursday , Juno
26 , and continuing until the 128th.
On the first day there will bo a rocop-
lion of turners and the selection of
judges. In the evening there will bo a
grand commers in which all visiting
turners will take part.
On Friday there will bo a parade
through the streets of the city , followed
by prize turning at the park. An ad-
drcbs of welcome will bo delivered by
the mayor of the city , and In the eve
ning there will bean exhibition of ftincy
turning in Love's opera house.
Saturday there will bo another parade
followed by mass-wand exorcises.
On Sunday there will ho n grand pic
nic in the park , followed by an exhibi
tion of fancy turning. At the conclu
sion prizes consibting of laurel wreaths
and diplomas will bo awarded to the excelling -
colling athletes.
All the turnvereins of the state have
boon preparing for this great event for
some weeks past. Each of thorn will be
expected to go through the sumo exor
cises according to a progiammo which
has been submitted by Henry Kum-
niorow of Plattsmouth , who holds the
position of bozirks turnwnrt.
The Omaha turners will bo repre
sented by about fifty active young men ,
Homo of whom are counted among the
most able gymnasts in the country.
On the Saturday night before their
departure , the Omaha turnverein will
give a grand ball , the proceeds of which
will bo applied to pay the expenses at
the fest of the younger members.
Tlio nutioral convention of Plntt-
doutschor vorcona will bo hold In Denver
early in July. On the first Sunday of
next month the local Plattdeuthchor
voroon will hold a mooting to elect ton
delegates to this great gathering. These
delegates will bo bolccted from among
the loading members because the aim of
the national organization is to bccuro
the best po iblo representation in order
that the interests of tlio bociely may bo
advanced.
A national convention of the organiza
tion was hold in this city two years ago.
Last year it took pfaco at Kansas
City and this year the mountain banita-
rium has boon honored in the selection.
The president of tlio society is Hans
Rudolph of Kansas City , while the treas
urer and secretary both reside in this
county , tlio former olllco being Hold by
Ilonry Eieko aim the latter by John
Rushraan of this city.
The national association comprises so
cieties in St. Louis , Now York , Chicago ,
Cleveland , Denver , Kaunas City , St.Joo ,
South Omaha , Milwaukee and Toledo.
The objects are benevolence and fra
ternity. The constitution and by-laws
annually undergo certain changes , the
aim being to perfect the rules in accor
dance with thoncedbof the society which
are annually discovered.
The local branch of the society , which
has already boon referred to in these
columns ns in n prosperous condition ,
Has been especially liberal In the xlx
years it has been in existence. Hallows
90 a week to n sick member who IH in
good standing and , If needs be , a mireo
both by day and night. In case of death , /
$50 Is allowed for funeral expenses ami
n reasonable sum for music. If It should
bo decided to dispense with display at
the funeral , the amount which would bo
allowed for that purpose is to bo turned
ever lo the widow of the deceased. The
latter is also allowed $1 per capita front
the membership of the death fund of
the association In this manner mem
bers nro assured of careful attention
when sick and also that their families
shall not want for necessaries after death
has removed thaui. Tlio Omaha so -
cloty's ' treasury , in the last six years ,
has contributed In the neighborhood of
$10,000 for the welfare of its Invalid
members.

You can not got lower down In the so nlo of
humanity than the dog-poisoner ; ho ranks
wllh the coward who sols lire to unprotected
buildings and wllh Hie torturer of children ,
declares a dog breeder In the St. Louis dlube-
Domosrat. liven ids heart would almost bo
molted if ho could sco his holplcss canlno
victim vomiting blood and serum and gn/.lng
with eves of pitiful appeal upon his master ,
whom hi ) has striven so well to servo and
who Is unable to help him. The way It hap
pens Is that some brute Is annoyed by n dog
anil seeks revenge by trying to murder every
such animal ho can socrotly. A few years
ago In Chicago , the city authorities barbar
ously ( Iceieed the dcstrucllon of every un-
muzzled dog without a hearing , and
men wore- hired to go about drop
ping "butlons , " ns Ihov were called ,
of poisoned meat before every dog's
nose that could bo found nnproU'cleii by a
wire mask. In the District of Columbia it
has hocn decided tint do s , Innsinuch as they
p.iy a lax , are "property. " This means that
any ono who poisons a dog , if caught , must
pay the market vnluo of the animal. But how
far Is that likely to represent the cro.uuro's
value to its owner and master ! To my mind ,
n man who would poison n dop , ttio friciul of
man among all imiumls , deserves at least Im
prisonment for life , Mnco ho only needs cour
age , opportunity and motive to become o
murderer.
