A very dlinitrous ilro occurred at nn early

A great deal of attention is devoted to the

A largo number of tlioso ai tides have ocoa

was present from the use of linpioperly relined -

He lilvod Dnlly a Hotter Poem Tlinn
Ho liver Wrote.
The funeral of Alon/o Hilton Davis , the
well known poet , who died Saturday , took
place at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon from
the Howard Street Methodist church , Inter
ment at Forest Lawn. Hov. II. A. Crane
oniclated , assisted by Uevs. Charles Savidgo
and Clcorgo II , Hrown ,
Mr.Davis was born In I CM in Mattoon , n
picturesque llttlo town In Killngham county ,
llllnol ? . tie attended the public schools lu
his native town , afterwards pursuing n clas
sical course nt Westllcld college , 'lhat ho
was a popular alumnus nt his nima tnator Is
attested by thn fact that he wns annually In
vited to attend ftio closing exorcises and contribute -
tribute nn original reminiscent poem.
After tils graduation ho taugnt school for
several years. While still engaged ns n
teacher , ho mnrrled ono of Scotia's fnlr
dnughtctK and went to reside nt Charleston ,
111. In IbSU ho lemovod to Omaha.
IIo successfully eneaucd in the clothing
business In partnership with his brother.
Of late years ho has been engaged In the hat
business.
Mr. Davis , nlwnvs of n delicate con
stitution , contracted consumption about
three years ago. IIo sought the mild , balmy
climate of Floildn und the south , nnd re
turned homo after a .six months' sojourn
much Improved. The disease ngaln began to
make rapid Inroads , nnd ho sought to stay
Its ravages In southern travel. IIo was
strlclicn down with hemorrhages ilnally
nbout three wcorfs ago.
Mr. Davis had n national reputation ns n
poet , nnd some of his vrsos nio destined to
111ul n pKico In our literature.
IIo bciran " to wrlto verses when quite n
child.
"IIolHpcd In numbers fortho numbers cnmn. "
In this case the child was father to the
man.
/ nrong his warm personal friends ho num
bered some of America's sweetest singers ,
James Whltcomb Kiloy , the Hooslcr poet ,
Kugeno Field , ho who has fnthoir.cd the
depths of the human heart nnd played so
sweetly on all the chords ; Jntnes Kcdpnth ,
Kleandr Donelly , Hobort Mclntyro Glider ,
the poet editor of the Century , and a score of
otlieis.
Five years ago , ho began the study of
Scotia's dulcet dialect , and within that
period ho gave to literature nt least two
poems that deserve to bo rnniied not far
below those of the immortal Burns , and
which have been copied in the loading Eng
lish journals of the world. They are beauti
ful bits of description and pathos. The
"Now Scotch Haino" nnd "An address to a
violet plucked from 'Bobble's1 cot. "
This is not the time nor plnco to enter into
nn mini } sis of his pee try , sufllco it
to say , that ho sang songs that
reach the heart , veritable lyrical gorn" , true
In tone ns they are elevating in sentiment , .
His homo llfo was idyllic to a degree that
ono could hardly credit as possible in this
work-a day world. Ho lived dally a better
poem than ho over wrote. Indeed those who
Know him most intimately felt that ho was
too llnoly libered for the "sturm and drang"
of life.
Mr. Davis was a prominent member of the
Sewnrd Street Methodist Episcopal church
and for several years supeiintondent of the
Sunday school. IIo leaves a wife , n sister of
Prof. Swing , the famous Chicago divine , undone
ono child.
Shortly before ho died , ho gave a friend
the rough draft of n poem entitled "Ho is
Not Dead , " from which ono stanza Is culled
the truth of which ho has reali/.cd orn this :
"Ho Is not dead , the angels whlspotcd bend-
In IT
To strike In ecstncv their names of gold :
"An hunest soul with heaven's graces blendIng -
Ing
Was led by us Into the Muster's fold. "
It gives us pleasure to refer to the adver
tisement of Dr. W. II. Tutt which appears in
our columns. For over twentylivecars
Tutt's Pills have been before the public , und
each succcdlng ycarthoir valuable properties
become bolter appreciated. They now stand
second to none for the relief of that much
abused and overtaxed organ , the liver , nnd
for thn removal of that cause of so many ills ,
constipation. They are used in every civll-
i/ed country , and carry with them volumin
ous testimonials of their safety and ofllcacy.
Tutt's Liver Pills should have a pluco in
every household.

Wllilj TJtANKKKlt THE FHANCH1S13
American Water Works Company to
Change the Corporate Name.
Ere many days ofllcors of the American
Water Works company will appear before
the city council to usk for the privilege of
liansforriiig the franchise of the company
from the American Water Works company
of Illinois to the American Water Works of
Now Jersey.
In 1SSO Sidney E. Locke , who then owned
the franchise , tiansferied it to the -City
\Vater Works company and its assigns , and
in duo course of time this company trans
ferred to the American Water Works com
pany , with headquarters in Chicago.
Alterwurds the company branched out nnd
located a plant In Denver. Soon after its
completion , botti U nnd the Omnlm plant
wom consolidated tor corporation purposes
and the stock was sold to the American
Water Works company of Now Jersey.
fthorlly after that President. Underwood
resigned and since then First Vice President
Venncr has been acting president , nnd will
probably servo In that capacity until the an
nual mooting of directors which will bo hold
next January.
ManrigorHall of the Otnnhu plant stated
that the transfer of stock from one company
to another meant nothing moro than carrying
out the terms of the sale some time ace , nnd
that the proi option to usk tbo city council to
countenance the transfer wns only a matter
of form , that the company might properly go
on iccord.
All lormor contemplated plans would bo
carried out and no change , in his opinion ,
would occur in the Omaha department of the
company.
M ivor O ushlug in sponklng of the transfer
of the charter and franchise of the water
works company , slated that ho did not sco
how It could affect the city's rights. The
original charter wns granted to Sidney E ,
l.ocUo or his assigns , nnd as long ns the
assignee compiled with tno conditions of the
original charter granted by the city , the
council could nslc nothing morn. Ho hnd
heard of the proposed transfer nmlTogardod
It simply ns a business proposition. Of
course no would carefully oxamlno all papars
connected with the transfer when they were
piesenled to him for approval , ns ho wanted
to bo sure that the rights of the city were
protected.
Ci-atll'yiiiir to All.
The high position attained anil the univer
sal acceptance and approval of the pleasant
liquid fruit remedy , Syrup of Figs , as the
most excellent laxative known , illustrate the
value of the qualities on which Its success is
based , and are abundantly gratifying to the
C'itUfornln Fruit Syrup company.

Great Vigor to the Ordinance.
COUNCIL CANNOT DEAL IN FUTURES ,
Hills IMiiBt Not Ho Commuted for the
Next Commit to 1'ny Ac
tion or the Hotly
last Night.
The city council met In regular session last
night , and as none of the thirteen members
present were In a mood to Indulge in ( lights
of oratory the session was ot short duration
und all of the business wns transacted within
two hours from the start.
Mayor dishing vetoed the ordinance lo
cating additional water hydrants. Tncre
were llfty-eight of them. He gave it as his
opinion that tno contract in force was en
tered into by the City Water Works com
pany , while the American Water Works ,
company was Instructed to remove und locate
the hydrants. As another reason
ho stated that payment for rentnl
would have to bo mndo out of
next year's levy. He questioned
the present council's right to incur such a
debt for the next council to tnko care of. The
veto wns sustained by a vote of 8 to 5.
The veto on the now ordinance relating to
rules governing the ofllco of the plumbing
Inspector was _ presented. The veto wa *
based upon the fact that ouo rule provided
that the water works company should
bo allowed to assess a line of ? l for
turning oft nnd on water In any building.
It provided nlso that the waterworks com
pany should bo allowed to assess a tax ol $4
against anv party wno turned on or off the
water In bis promises without the consent of
the company. He thought that the passing
of such an ordinance was placing n weapon
In the hands of the company for the purpose
of lighting the city. The veto was sustained
by a vote of 11 to 'J.
KIlihtH of ii Reporter.
Just then Mr. TutOe noticed a representa
tive of the Kansas City Sun within the bar
of the house nnd moved that ho bo removed.
Mr. Morcarty , in a lengthy speech , seconded
the motion , llo snld that the paper hnd said
many mean things about him and he wauled
him excluded.
Air. Elsassor said" that ho did not propose
loabuso the joportcr. It was true that the
paper had said some bad things about conn-
cllrnen. It was al-to true that Omaha papers
had said wicked things about tbo same couu-
cilmcti , nud their reporters had not been ex
cluded. .
Mr. Davis said the reporter ought not to bo
denied the right to sit at the reporter's table.
The way would bo to suppress the sale of
the paper and not to insult the reporter.
Mr. Morcarty mauo another speech nnd
then the vote was taken. The reporter was
allowed to remain as only four members
voted to have him imnovcd.
As the vote was announced , Mr. Morearty
remarked , "Now sheeny , telegraph that ,
back to your paper. "
Mr. Davis devoted some time to scorinc
Mr. Morearty , und said thnt ho wns sur
prised to know thnt any public ofllcml would
put himself in such a delicate position. Pho
debate might have been continued for some
tlmo had not so'no member demanded the
regular orner of business , after which the
work of the council went along without in
terruption.
Hoiitlnc Mntter-4 Adjustcil.
The contract for furnishing hnrd coal for
the use of the city was awarded to the Ne
braska Fuel company.
The council decided to sit as a board of
equalization at the ofllco of the cltv clerk on
November 1C. At thnt session it is the in
tention to equalize the general tax for tbo
year Ib9 .
The committee on railways nnd viaducts
recommended that the ordinance providing
for the submission of the question of grant
ing a charter to the Metropolitan street rail
ways bo referred to the committee of the
whole. Tbo motion prevailed.
Mr Morearty suited Unit a committee
should bo appointed tocnnforwith thocounty
commissioners and the Board of Education
relative to Judges and clerks of election
within the city.
Prudent Lowry appointed Messrs. Mo
rearty , Tuttle and Etsasser as such commit
tee.

The committee on printing was instructed
to assist the clerk and see to the printing of
election tickets.
The city eiicineor and the committee on

have boon designated as polling places.
President Lowry stated thnt ho and Mr.
Specht had purchased eighty tables and
rented 701 chairs to ho put into'tho booths , to
bo used on election day.
After passing a few ordinances the council
adjourned , while toveral members weroclam-
oring for the president to fix n dnte when the

TALSIAGIAN TALK.
An liiterostlnjf Intorv.ow by "Carp"
for the Sunday Hoc.
That prince of correspondents , Frank O.
Carpenter , has interviewed Kov. T. DoWitt
Tnlmago , and the results of their meeting
are embodied In nn article which will appear
InTuuSuNniY UKK. It Is1 a popular thing
In some quarters to sneer at Dr. Talnmt'c ,
but , measured by his capacity for work and
the enormous sums of money ho receives
from the American public , ho Is n remarkable
man whoso llfo , habits and personality have
an intense interest for millions.
The distinguished theologue gave full and
frank answers to the interviewer's questions ,
and Mr. Carpenter hns her n enabled to pre
sent an exceedingly remarkable fund of Tal-
maglann. The loiter opens with a graphic
description by the correspondent of the
eminent preacher's homo and study , of his
method of using books nnd the rnro curios
which adorn his parlors. Dr. Tnlnngo Is
then quoted upon the sovcrul subjects that
were discussed. Ho llrst gives some of his
observations in the Holy Land , and states
bis masons for thinking the prosperous Jews
of America and Euiopo should not go back to
Pnlostlno. Ho explaln's how ho Identified
Calvary , the plaeo of ( Jhrisi'b crucifixionunit
in passing denioi thu absurd story that ho
tried to buy it.
The money making dlvlno oven tnkos the
public Into his confidence on his financial af
fairs by telling of the sums no receives for
his lectures. Ho also tells what contributions
ho Is making to the press , and gives some
account of the other activities which 1111 his
life.
Altogether It Is a most entertaining story
of ono of the busiest and most lemarkable
men of the time. For thu admirers of Tal
ma eo this article will have a special value ,
end the general reader who would keep
abreast of current events and celebrities
cannot afford to miss It.

FECHHEIMER , GOODKIND & CO. ,
of New York City , have been known for years ns manufacturers of the
Finest Clothing for Men made in the whole United States. Goods made
by this concern were as well known to the clothing men of this country
as Sapolio to the.Belles of the Kitchen , or Pears'Soap to the belles of the
parlor. For reasons not necessary to state at this time , this firm very
r.ecently resolved to dissolve partnership , close out their entire stock
and go out of business. For a number of years we have been among
the best customers that this house has had. Before this stock was offered J \
to the general public , a few of the largest cash buyers in the land ,
among them our Mr. Strasburger , the member of our firm who lives in
New York , and whois considered one of the best clothing buyers in this
country , were invited to go through this magnificent stock , just manu
factured for Fall trade , and make their selections. Mr. Strasburger
made the largest purchase made by any one concern. He selected
THE CREAM OF THE STOCK.
He paid spot cash for the goods. He bought goods for less money than
we were ever able to buy fine goods before. After these few buyers had
culled over the entire stock and selepted the good things , the balance of
the stock was thrown on the market at auction. The reputation of this
house ' //as so great that these goods wore eagerly snapped up , the bid
ding being so brisk that everything brought good prices , most of them
full regular prices , and in many cases more than F. G. & Co. had ever
asked for them. This immense purchase , which comprises the largest
assortment of
FINE SUITS AND OVERCOATS
ever shown in this western world , is now on its way to Omaha , and
will arrive in a day or two. In the meantime , in order to
REDUCE OUR PRESENT STOCK
to its lowest possible limit , the man with the red ink. has been through
the Suits and Overcoats and marked them all down to the lowest pos
sible notch. .
Watch our corner of the "Bee. " It'll be mighty interesting read
ing for the male portion of our population. Keep your eye on our store.
It's always the busiest spot in Omaha , but from now on it will be
