Today Is thoclcctlon of school directors , nnd
an exciting tlmols looked for , compared with
what Is usually witnessed at similar elec
tions. The same forces are at work as In the
election of a wcoic ago , and It might bo pre
dicted thai the result would bo the same
were It not for ono or two facts that tend to
make the outcome rather uncertain. It Is
stated that a disaffection has been caused In
the ranks of those who elected Or. Lawrence
mayor , on account of HIP fact that the re
publicans have boon dolnis n great deal of
bracing over their victory , when , In
fact , party linen were drawn very
loosely in the campaign and the victory wts
not no much n rcnublicaTi as a "citizens' "
victory. Again , Bcbool elections generally
fall to bring out n large proportion of the
voters , so that It may bo that those who have
n grievance , who therefore will vote solid ,
may bo abla to offer a rebuke to the repub
lican partisans unless an nclivo effort Is made
bv the republicans as n party to prevent It.
The effort will bo made by the republican
leaders , however , to Induce everyone entitled
to vote to oxcrciso his right , and nt the same
thing Is beinif done by the democrats , n full
vote is looked for.

"TIlO .SlllCllllllMH III Sill. "
At the First Presbyterian church yesterday
day Dr. Stephen Pholni took as his text the
following passage from Romans vit , lit :
"That sin by the commandment might become -
como exceedingly sinful. " Ho called ntton-
tlon to the fuel that the ease with which
souls can bo saved , by merely bollovlng on
the Son , has made sin Itself seem to many to
bo a trivial affair. Ho chose his text , there
fore , with a view to bringing out as clourly
us possible the fact that sin was loathsome
to God not any particular sin , but sin In
general.
"A crlmo , " ho said , ' 'Is p. violation of man's
law ; n sin a violation of God's law. Sin is
not a disease for which wo are not respon
sible ; It is not an imperfection of our nature ;
It U \oluntury transgression , and the law
Is the mirror In tvhluh man looks nnd sees his
own sin fulness ; it Is the Hunt , that Is thrown
Into a well and shows the filth that tills it ; It
Is the microscope through which wo look and
see tbo poisonous germs that fill our soul and
which would uscapo unnoticed in our self
satisfaction.
"Tbo sum of the ton commandments is , ac
cording to Christ's precept , to love Uod and
our neighbor as oursolf. Donbttess wo sin
many times n day In word or action , but wo
sin ten times as often In thought , so that no
eye but that or the Deity knows itio true
state of our souls , tain Is said to besot men
as a lion might , crouching wait for him
as ho comes out of his own door. The tale of
the eastern monarch who ordered a black
smith to make an Immense chain is a famil
iarise. After the blacksmith had workoa a
long time ho presented himself before the
Icing with the chain upon which no bad
worked for year * and was told to go and
make it longer and stronger. A second and
third tlino no received the same order , and
when bo at last apnoared before the king bo
was ordered to bo bound with the chain ho
had made and cast Into a furnace of tire. So
H.is with u mtin who allows himself to bo-
co'mo the servant if sin. Every irnn admits
that ho is a sinner , but many times without
any particular fooling. But when a man Is
brought under the power of the spirit ho
trembles , weeps , tiers and repents.
"Sin brought on all the woe , sorrow , suf
fering and death that has ever afllicted the
earth. Go gather up ull the woo and tears ,
measure all the bitterness , collect all the
sorrows , number all the deaths for death is
the wages of sin and you got an idea of the
exceeding slnfulucss of sin. Go to the nether
world , listen to the walling and gnashing of
troth of those who are burning in n lire that
Is never to bo quonebod , and understand tbo
sin I illness of sin. It comes upon man as n
silken thread that turns to a cable and binds
him fast. It Is llko thollovving of the mighty
river which carries him along on its bosom
In n resistless ( low till it roaches the deadly
Niagara falls. O , man. If you are caught , on
the ranrciloss tldo of sin and are being car
ried on to certain destruction , re in ember
that there is no hope save in the protecting
hands of Christ , and llv to him for safety. "

To TUB CtTIZBXR AND VoTKHS OK COUNCIL
ni.vrrs : Yesterday's issue of a morning
paper contained an allegation that I had
appointed myself ono of tlio Judges of the
Fifth ward poll. This is false. The school
laws of Independent districts provide that
the members of the board shall br > 'hn Judges
of election In the various wards. Not hav
ing salocted up to Saturday night the repub
lican member for Judge I stated openly at
the board mooting hold at the board rooms
last night that I would select a republican In
my place on Monday morning. If the paper
In question had had a reporter present at the
meeting of the board , it possibly might have
understood the matter better. Ihuvouovor
been Judge of election at any time , much less
do I care to bo ono now ; but If I were tbo
fair minded people of tbls city who have
known me for twonty-llvo years , know that
there would bo a fair and honest count.

"Will Mio Olvorci ) IIIinT"
Of course neil It would not bo poetic ; it
would not please the dramatic taste of tbo
time. In this day and country the woman
who forgives U angelic , nnd wo llko to think
our women angola. A husoand may wrong
bis wife grlovlously , but when she condones
his offense she sanctifies him and canonizes
herself. Such is the sentiment of the lime ,
and plays built upon this simple theme win
our patronage and our plaudits. Of such Is
"Will She Divorce Him ! " which Miss Cora
Tanner and her company presented at the
Boyd last night.
The plot is simple indeed. Isabo' Spencer
( Miss Tanner ) Is iu love with Philip Agnr ,
who Is indifferent , to her , but infatuated with
uuilo do Sardonno. The latter's Husband
suspects bis wife's inconstancy , and in the
lirst act comes upon the other tbrco
characters carrying a letter in his hand. It
is unsigned and unaddressed , but was found
in his wife's room. It contains a declara
tion of love. The Vlscomto de Sardonno de
mands an explanation. Consternation 1 His
wife extricates herself by asserting that she
was merely carrying the letter from Apar to
Isabel. Agar assents to the unexpected turn ,
makes a formal proposal to Isabel and Is ac
cepted. ThU situation Is intensely dramatic ,
but thenceforward the story has nothing of
Intricacy.
Alter two years 'of happy married llfo
Isabel learns of her husband's infatua
tion by ovorhearine a conversation be
tween the guilty pair. She takes
steps for securing a divorce. Husband and
wife meet for the last time , as they suppose ,
to make a division of their property , nnd are
informed by a legal adviser that the divorce
has boon expedited unexpectedly and the de
cree already granted.
Agar und Isabel bavo a touching scene In
which they discover that iho former has
learned to love his wife and that her heart
is still full of tenderness for him. The
good friend opportunely stops in to
toll thorn that the report of the pro mature di
vorce was a trick of his to test tholr senti
ments toward each other , und the curtain
coes down upon husband and wife in each
other's arms , reunited and reconciled.
Miss Tanner has a face and a tiguro to
tempt u Saint Anthony , but she does not depend -
pond upon her exceptional beauty for public
favor. She has histrionic talent of a high
order , and brings to any role she attempts
the Intelligence and the ability of an ambi
tious , accomplished artiste. She portrays
Isabel as a proud but a trontlo woman , as a
self-respecting but a lander wife. She pic
tures n most charming woman , one who Is
too well bred to Indulge In loud lamentations ,
too magnanimous to make scones.
Miss Tanner is emotional without being
clamorous , und her method of repression Is
Intense enough to roach tlio senses without
disturbing the Illusion. Ono mlcht wish horn
n worthier vehicle than this drama affords ,
but such as tbo character Is , It is most ad
mirably acted , and Miss Tanner received
several enthusiastic curtain calls.
Harold Russell as Agar , Miss Ada Dwyer
us Julie de Sardonno , J. If. Hulchlnson as
Visromto do Sardonno and O. II. Barr as
the legal adviser gave tha star excellent
support. Several minor characters were
employed to provide an element of comedy
that had no connection with tha thonui of
the play , but tholr efforts wcro not particu
larly happy.
"Tha Iliiiullt King. "
Jamas II. Walllck and company have begun
an engagement at tbo Farnam Street theater
In a repertory of plays founded on western
llfo. "The Bandit King" was presented
yesterday to two full housns. It is a blood
and thunder affair of little drnmatlo merit ,
but It met with undeniable favor among the
audience , who were afforded numerous op
portunities to gloat over the hero's triumphs ,
Several trained horses talto frequent , part in
( he performance and thov art ) among the
best uctors on the stago. They are intelli
gent , handsome animals and give an inter

composed entirely of the Hebrew residents

Story-Why Ho I'mrlU'd.
OMAHA , March U. To the Editor of TIIK
HKKJ Future success In my profession-
pay , my very mitttis of HvclfnUd'd depends
upon my abilities as an arohitc cOand the in
tegrity with which these blHIttfos are em
ployed. You do not , perhnpsV'rBillzo the In
lluonco wblnh n great nowso3 | > cr llko Tun
Hr.i : wields In forming public opinion , nnd
bow , llko another Fata it may make or mar
tbo destiny of a young man struggling to
make himself , Unfortunately , I am at log-
ccrhoads with the majority bf the Board of
Education. My legal rights t expect to vin
dicate through tbo courts of Justice. In the
meanwhile , and awaiting the result of theiu
Issues , I humbly bog you , Mr. Editor , not to
pnsj judgment upon my motives us a man or
my efllclcncy as an architect , and I respect
fully request that you withdraw , uncondi
tionally , the imputation contained In vour
editorial of March 8 , ISM , which editorial
was nhort , but cruelly to tbo point : "Archi
tect Bcrilnghoft's own admissions In the
charges made by Contractor Mt-ncodobt In
connection with iho Kcllom school building
nro enough to condemn him iu the eyes of
honest mon. "
The " Interview" in question was pub
lished In the same issue as your editorial.
The only languauo in that interview which
could bo tortured Into an ndtn'.sslon of any
Bert was ; "Did you udvlso Mongcdoht to
strUio the Board of Education for extras on
the stair building on account of a cbango In
the plans after part of the work had bcon
done ! " "Yes , I did , " said Mr. Uerllnghoff.
"Ho bad n right to ask un extra for that , I
understand that part of tha stairs had to bo
built twice on account of the change und
Mongcdobt ought to bavo put in an extra because -
cause it was not his fault. "
I nm willing to stand by eveiy word In the
nbovo quotation. So far from bolng dishon
est , the principle Involved is absolutely fair
und reasonable. The plans nnd spdclllca-
tlons called for stairs of a certain height
nnd pattern nnd part of tha stairs were
built as called for and ready to deliver.
Subsequently there was n radical change
mudo In the plans nnd specifications , and this
change required thntnewnnd dltTcrunt stairs
bo built. Hero was un extra expanse which
souio one had to bear. The question is , who
was to boar M Certainly not Mr. Meuge-
doht , who was clearly not'at fault in the mat
ter ; but both law and equity would say that
the persons making the change wcro tbo
proper ones to pay tno costs , niid these per
sons were the Board of Education.
So far as the other charges made against
mo by Mr. Mougedoht nro concerned I have
denied them each and all in my Interview re
ferred to and I could odd nothing to the
strength of that denial uy repealing It hero
I did claim to Mr. Mengcdoht , nnd sill
claim , that tbo wldo brick arch over the
front door would have boon very much
strengthened nnd improved by the use of an
iron beam , nnd that without this eye beam ,
as it is called , the arch was very liable to col
lapse. The correctness of thls"pcoposition I am
willing to submit to any export in the world.
Now , if what 1 soy is truexvhy , was not the
iron beam used ! It was imulomid delivered
on the ground and the expanse of putting it
In plnco would have been very trilling in
comparison to th'o added strength it would
buvo given to the building. " .If , In my dis
gust at this stupid omis-jiou , 1 expressed
myself to the effect , that the. , b'uildlng would
collapse , it was nil 1 snjil.on the subject.
For Air" Mengcdoht to assortj.tbat . 1 was anx
ious to have tbo building tumble down , or
suggest that the arch ho built , in such a wny
that it should crush of itsjo'wn weight , Is
absolutely to falsify. Ho might as well uc-
cuso me ot arson , burglary or , any other capi
tal offense. , " " jj
I have a contract with thoBoard of Educa
tion which I moan to enforce. , Ono clause ot
the contract provides ns follows : "All work
to bo done under the supervision and to the
satisfaction of said architect , , " , , Myself and
partner , Mr. Charles E. Beli.'oxocutcd a bond
to tbo school district of Omaha in the eura of
(10,000 , in which wo guaranteed with the
school board to completu , In accord
ance with plans and specifications ,
this bulldintr at a cost not exceeding
$3(5,500 under our superintendence. You will
therefore .sea that wo not 'only agreed to
superintend tbo construction of this Imlldlner ,
but bad given lurco bonds upon tbls under-
tandlng. Moreover , the fees of superlnten-
dency would bo tba most considerable part of
our profits , but the board , without our nu-
thority and against our protest , employed
Mr. Hamilton us superintendent. There is
an old saying that "too many cooks spoil tbo
broth. " Mr. Hamilton a : a .iy self disagreed
almost from the start. His way of doing
things and mine were totally different.
When I protested to the Board of Education
that my way was proper and should bo iol-
lowuJ , I was In every instance snubbed and
Mr. Hamilton sustained. I do not know what
political backing Mr. Hamilton may possess
to maku him such a prime favorite with tha
Bunrd of Education , for I am no politician.
I do , however , profess to knbw , my business ,
both as an architect 'and superintend
ent , and I submit that both under
my contract and tbo terms of my bond it was
my duty to see that the plans and specifica
tions were strictly carried out nnd the work
done nnd tbo material furnished AS provided
for. Accordingly when the work was nearing -
ing completion I sent to tlio Board of Educa
tion my solemn protest against some of the
work douo nnd some of the material fur
nished. My objections were as follows :
I. Bctwoan the rough and mushed floors
the specifications called for tar felt paper.
'
Thoro' was substituted the ordinary building
paper and in sumo places no paper whatever
was used. This 1 assert and stand ready to
prove.
U. The brown coat as well as the finish
coat of tbo black boards is not as called for
by the plans and specifications.
! ) . Tbo construction of the main entrance
on the east side is not us called for by tbo
plans und specifications , and the arch Is
sagged and the Joints are opon. This Is a
positive charge and 1 stand ready to prove It.
4. The locks on the doors were specified to
ba the Yale & Towno lock No. 1,020. A
much cheaper quality of lock was substituted
and uu.oss changed will occasion much an ]
noyanco and everlasting repairs.
C. Tbo back bands of pilasters of the finish
around doors and windows tiuvo been put on
In two or tbreo nieces , whereas it should have
been In ono pioco. This , of course , is not a
very serious defect , but as superintendent I
should never have permitted it.
0. Tbo glass In the windows Is not of the
quality called for by the specifications , but is
of a cheaper grade. This certainly I should
never have permitted.
7. The specifications called lor bead work
Around the pilasters and beams and on beams
themselves. This Is , of bblirso , a matter of
ornament only , but It add * 'materially to the
appearance and finish of tiio.work and should
not have been omitted , asjjijhan bncn.
8. The plans and specifications required
that the Interior brick walls be built up to
tbo top of second story' ' &iling Joists. Thn
utility of this ls apparontJfpr ( It adds to tbo
strength ot the builiiini 'and lessens tbo
chancuof lira. It has not'lA-on dene.
U. The roof has not beeU'&nislructed in ac
cordance with drawings ii4 ? as directed by
tbo building inspector , although extra allow
ance was made to thrf'c ontractor on tbls
account , which ho probably is not too honest
to collect. * '
10. Tticro are numerous' posts loft out and
almost one-bait of the brakes' .
II. There was u lurga quantity of soft sal
mon brick hauled to the tflUlu'lng which were
condemned and ordered taken ' nway ; most of
these brick , however , worrfu'sed In the Inside
walls , Tbls I would not have allowed hud I
been superintendent of tha building.
Please bear In mind , Mr , Editor , that in tbo
above effort to explain myself 1 urn not , en
deavoring to besmirch Mr , Hamilton or any
member of tha Board of Education. I a in
simply assorting that In endeavoring to com
ply with the terms of my contract and todls-
charge the responsibilities Hint I ewe , not
only to my bondsmen but to the school dis
trict , of Omahu , 1 unfortunately c'imo ' into
collision with Mr. Ha'mllton. I think I
am entirely right , and tnn Board
of Education thinks I am entirely wrong.
At all events I am at outs with tbo Board of
Education. I am satisfied that upon Investi
gation you will do mo the lustice to retract
the Imputation of dUbonusty. I think t tint If
you will personally examine into tbo charges
I have madeyou will also do mo Justice In ray
capacity a architect. As for Mcngedohtho
may have an opportunity to ox plain hlmielf
before u jury. GIOIIOK : A , BeiiuxunoF.

Nr.w YORK , March IU. A flro that but for
Iho cries ot a 3-yoar-old child would have
probably resulted In a heavy los of llfo oc
curred nt 230 o'clock this morning In ttio
Janet , a coven-story , tint-class apartment
house on Columbus nvonuo , this city. When
the baby Lucollo , the adopted child of Ida
Plorson , a cook In the family of T. A. Car
roll , who occupied the second flat , awoke Its
mother , the room was filled with smoko.
The cook aroused the other servants , Mr.
und Mrs. Carroll and tholr two daughters ,
nnd then gave tbo alarm from the window.
An engine on tha elevated road took It up ,
a fire box was'rung , nnd the tire department
arrived alter a few minutes.
Meantime the flro , which had evidently
been burning a long time , had com
pletely cut off the OSCADO of the
Carroll household cither by tha hall
way or the flro escapes on the Columbus
avenue sldo. They were taken from the
windows on the front by the firemen. The
other tenants escaped , The damage was
about f3,000.

JlMisr.Y CITV , N. J. , March 18. The scene
of last night's tire at the Jersey City torml
nus of the Lackawnnnn road wax visited to
day by throngs of sightseers , mnny of whom
crossed the river from Now i'ork. The ruins
smouldered all dny , und occasionally flames
shot up from the mass of debris loft of the
tiers of baled hay that was piled In tbo big
wooden shed on dock No. " .
It was ascertained today that nt least ono
Ufa was lost In the flro , and t'jcro nro rumors
that n body of n drowned barge hand lies In
the slip , between nock Q and the Erie com
pany's grain elevator. A parly ot workmen
picked their way through the two ruined
track pits that divided the platform floor of
the shod Into three sections. At the extreme
easterly end ot the south track , about whore
the flro was first noticed , the searchers dis
covered the body of a man burned to n onsp ,
The remains were Identified , by moans of n
pair of i spectacles and a bunch of keys , ns
those of John Gregg , a night watchman em
ployed on dock No. ' . ' .
The man taken to St. Francis hospital from
the lire proved to bo Thomas Cordoner , known
ns "Eng'llsh Tom , "employed on thohay barge
Burlitigham , who fell overboard during the
excitement and was rescued by James White ,
who plunged in the Ice cold wntcr after him.
Tha engineer was able to leave the hospital
this morning. An unknown man was treated
at tbo same hospital for slight burns.
According to I bo statement of John Lapoy
of dock No. 2 , there were 147 car loads of
pressed bay or about SO.fiSO bales In tiers on
the platform , with nine bales of cotton uud a
few barrels of sugar. On this basis the toss
on freight will bo about f-.O.OOU. The value of
dock No. 'i with shea Is estimated all the way
from i5,000 to $50.000. The damage to rail
road property could not bo ascertained. It la
tbougbt.an outlay of 740,000 will bo required
to repair the shed and pier.
When the lire broke out the adjoining slip
was full of hny barges and lighters. Muny
of tbo crafts took flro and had to bo bur
riodly towed out In order to prevent the
blaze from spreading to the grain elevator on
tbo south. As it was the burge Suffolk nnd
the steam lighter Elizabeth were burned be
yond repair. They were worth about $40,000
and $10.000 respectively. The other barges
that , were damaged were the Buffalo , Amboy ,
Burllngbam , Huntoloy , Kamsoy nnd Mar
garet H. The Buffalo is. owned by the Erlo
Railroad company. The others belong to
various freight transportation companies
and firms. The damage to the barges will
aggregate $20.000.

PlTTsiiuito. Pn , , March 13 , The flogging
of Frank Wlnehammor of lower St. Clulr
township \vhitccaps last Monday was
only tbo beginning of a movement by tbo
residents to reform that district and drive
from the community a lawless class , who
have been a source of much annoyance for
yoars. It is claimed that there are
over 100 "spoa'ic oasles , " or unli
censed liquor saloons in and about
the settlement of Hefllow , and that
largo numbers of desperate characters of
both sexes from Plttsburg frequent the
place on Sunday. It n proposed to I'orco the
proprietors of the "speak easies" to remove
to more congenial quarters , and to that end
a band of regulators has boon organized. It
includes many of the prominent residents of
lower St. Glair township , and unless iho pro
prietors of these places take tha hint nnd go
of tholr owu accord , they will receive the
same treatment as Winohammor. The latter
was so badly Doatou that ho is still at the
hospital.

Telegram to TUB Bce.J Frauk and Lowls
Moore , of Crozor's mill , Chester , Pa , , died
today from poisoning , It is Kuoposed that
the lads stole und ate tholunch of some other
boys that was dosed with arsenic. His known
that Frank and Lewis were both taken 111 Im
mediately after eating dinner at the mill. Sus
picion points to a lorriblo method of discover
ing the pilferers of tba lunch baskets. This
method , It Is thought , was to dose a calto era
a piece of pie with arsenic. An older brother
of tbo boys made no concealment of tbo fact
today that It was u customary thing among
tbo spinning iroom boys to steal each
other's lunches. Foreman Benjamin Clark
also said that numerous complaints had been
made about this boyish hatlt , but that it was
impossible to detect the pilferers. All the
boys in the spinning room have bcon ar
rested in order to learn who is responsible
for the doatbs.
