tnodlcal department of that university ,
Chancellor Kerr opened his address with
eohipllmcullng the city upon becoming the
' * BetH/of / a.univorslty and explaining the ob-
' "Joels of Iho unlvordty nnd the good accom
plished by the nfllliatloii ot tbo Omaha Mod.
leal college and Bellevue college. Ho said
that the name of university would do no
good If effective work were not done ; tbat
pretentious would not amount to anything
nnrt advertising would soon bo scon through.
> ' Ho believed tbat a nigh educational standard
would bo as highly appreciated In the west
us iu any part of tno world. Nebraska had h
'
pride in'aiid -Appreciation of good things
* " which opened the door for the establishing of
a university. Tbo University of Omaha
therefore came Into existence In response to
H demand for it and Its work would oo to
promote the wolf nro of the Omaha Modlcal
college' , tbo Bellevue Institution and to add
to tboso departments as occasion would per-
I jnlt. The best work ho claimed was now
* .flon'o bytho colleges which wore departments
pf university , and in this line the unlvor-
bitywas established , its objects would bo ,
In a word , to give the broadest education for
tboleast expense.
At the close ot his address there was an

They Are Doctors Now.
Dr. Loiscnaing , president of the board of
.trustees , In Introducing the graduates ad-
/diossod them in relation to the gift about to
bo conferred upon them and the duties which
would bo required of them , lie realized the
Solemn responsibilities of the hou > * in address
ing thorn for the last time. Ono year ago
ho had addressed a similar class , ono of
whom , whoso future was promising , is no
more , and bo bad often asked himself If bo
lind done his duty by that student. The
laculty nad pronounced the class flttcd to bu
endorsed wlttui dogrco but ho cautioned its
mcmbcra not to Imagine tbat their work was
accordingly done. They bad o llfo long work
boforu them. True , they besan where ages
, of Investigation had loft off , but ho admonished
ished them to worlc hard in the profession
wDlch they had chosen und the possibilities
of which could not bo measured by Unite
mind. Ho advised them to use their com
mon scnse.to bo honest , painstaking men. Ho
warned them not to bo talked Into Duying
proprietary medicines aud read a humorous
poem on the mishaps of what ho culled the
railroad doctor , who cured all sorts of mal-
ndies instantaneously. During the time
' .when they should bo anxiously waiting tbo
verdict of some fair prospective partner , ho
i Bind they would have ample tlmo for study.
< ' In dealing with their patients ho exhorted
them In conclusion to follow the golden
rule. /

Hocus I'OCUH uuil Ills Followers.
He had been , bo said , in some doubt ns tea
a topic , for ho know nothing of medicine ex
cept that It was bad to tako. In looking over
Turner's "History of the Anglo-Saxons , "
however , ho had come upon a character ot
whom it would bo safe to talk Hocus Pocus.
Too name was evidently latinized , but the
legend gave no information of date or pro
fession nxcopt that ho was a doctor of something
thingU was evident tbat this ancient baa
performed the functions of the tbroo learned
professions. His work was seen in all the
professions ot tbo present day. As for
instance In law , the .fictions tbat the wife
nnd husband are ono und that everybody
knows tbo laws art ; like all doctrines of
Hocus Pocua. In bis days , of course , there
i was no science of medicineaud this worthy
acquired bis medical sulonco intuttlonally.
Hocus Pocus , however , had loft n school
which gave nn Insight Into his methods. His
grand principle was tbat all outward ail
ments were tbo result of occult influences.
Hocus Pocus was nothing if not spiritual.
One of hla dootrtnos was tbat of animal
mapltetUm , und a great find It watt. Nothing
could bavo suited him better. Tbo mystery
of tbo thing was Its great chiirm and
Hocus Pocus aud his followers felt them
selves dollied with an awful majesty in prac-
tiphig their peculiar arts.
- Another method of Hocus Pocus , as prac
ticed by a follower , Nostradamus , consisted
\ropiejy. ) . Tn gentleman had royal
. honors conferred upon him and was the tlrst
to punlish an almanac. The next follower ,
Van Holmo , was a very ploui man and had a
f great dual to do with magnetism , aiid bis
writings , nearly 800 years old , road like tbe
talk of tbo modern Christian scientist. His
most striking experiment ! were In rclatlou
to the seat of the soul , which was located In
the pit'of tbo stomach. And the determina
tion , tbo sponsor said , had never boon fully
dUrnwod , Bovoral other absurdities of this
eminent fraud were humorously presented
nnd elicited the applause of tbo anulouco ,
Numerous other followers of hocus Pocus
were Instanced and some of the works tlo-
Boribod'fu Mr. .Mann's ' interesting manner.
Jlooua Potms nt 1'ruiout.
( -nineteenth century , however , he
thougnt hail distanced them all in ( , 'lorlfica-
UPU of the doctrines of Hocus Poous. Now ,
ns at first , bo propo&cs to cum without medicine -
cine , , Ho would abolish tbo iloolor , but bo
tnlovntos tlio priest. There nro many points
of agreement between the modern church
cud tbo ancient Jlocus Pocus , though bo bus
never stood any cbtuico of canonization , from
tbo simple fact tbat tbo church ban never
boon sure thut Hocus Pocus was not ! itoi
by Iho. prinoo of evils.
Tbo great enemy of Jlocus Pocus in the
modern world , the speaker continued , was
science , though the many mediums , trauca
poopln and the line wore sufllclont ovldonpo
that Hocus Pocus was holding his own In tbo
contest. Ono great trouble was that a great
tnany followers of Hocus Pocus donlod their
master. A dangerous class of his followers
was the self-deceived and houost la Its folly
who worked with the fervor of conviction to
docclvo the rest of the world. The Christian
dentists were Instanced and their doctrines
pokon of as having little Christian about it
end nothing of science. He often wondered
if the world were ull fools together in this
question , but ho thought there was such a
' thing as beinp ano all round and in that
' cato there was a duty to perform in righting
the mistakes of the rest of tbo world. The
world was wonderfully credulous and ready
to bo fooled , The romanticists were largely
responsible foj this sort of thing. .By creat
ing a world in which there wai no law , they
Had , educated the mar.s of humanity to
its present wonderful atata of gullibility. It
Is u strange sco when il is a bard thing to
Hud aalmilo for the impossible. We may
thank our stars that tibakcspoaro did not llva
In the ago ot ChtUtlan science. It 'the light
of this hnd dawned upon his benighted soul
ho would never have got off some ot the
stuff ho did , f
Tbo great nflM of the tlmo Is to deepen tUo
sense ot reality. This will best bo accom
plished by the worlc of mon sent out by the
schools. To do something toward this end
ought to bo tbo hlghoit ambition ot Iho mod
ern graduate. It was part of the work of the
class before him to combol n hoardoof magi
cians either to go out of business or to declare -
clare thomsolvas the ulsclplas of Hocus
Pocus.

In tbo. evening the graduating class was
given an olcgant banquet in the calo of tbo
1'axton hotel by the faculty of- the college.
Plates forSOO were spread nnd the menu was
an elaborate offalr with Iho tables tastefully
decorated with flowers and smllnx.l
After the repast had boon partaken of the
toastmaster , Dr. Donald Mncrao , Introduced
Dr. W. H. Christie , who responded to the
leant , "Tho Omaha Medical College. " Ho
said the Institution was full of ambi
tion , desire und hope. Ho spoke of
Omaha an the queen of the Missouri and by
its continual growth grcntopportunltlos were
offered. People would ba sick , hospitals
would haVe to bo built and the services of
doctors would bo required. Each
graduate Unit wont out from tbo
college added lustre to the institution , which
\vns how n live , ambitious ono. Ho alluded
to the responsibility renting upon the shoul
ders of tlioso who would soon bo administer
ing to the wants of suffering humanity.
Ho ndvhcd them to shun quackery
ns they wonld n viper and every other dis
honorable means of practice. Their lines
would bo ono ot constant study and toll.
Turn not backward , but march forward with
thn progress of this ago , ho said , after which
toasts were drunk to the memory of thqso
who founded the medical college , to tno
alumni , nnd to the students.
Uov. David U. Kerr responded to the
toast of "Tho TJnlverslty of Omaha. " Ho
said that the university was ns closn to hU
heart as was the medical college to the heart
of the toastmustcr who had previously re
ferred to that Institution in glowing terms.
Rev. Mr. Kerr's speech was filled wtth
humor' ana good nnturod sarcasm. Ho
talked on foreorditmtlon , ringing in several
satirical remaks on the union dopotand other
contemplated improvements as foroordl-
ntiled. Ho thought Omaha would ba
n university city , ns the town had
had greatness thrust upon It. Humorously
ho referred to the 'vnwlty yell , the students
painting the town red and the lllto nnd than
said the institution was n great benefactor
after all.
flloillclno In
Dr. S. D. Mercer responded to the toast ,
"Medicine in Nebraska. " Twenty-fivo
years of the most nctivo period of bis life
bad been spent In the practice of medi
cine , but for the last ten years ho
said bo had bean out of tbo profession. In
the early days when ho practiced modlclno
long Journey-i to the sick were necessary and
the fees were small , as the class of people In
these days were poor. In speaking to the
students ho said they must understand medi
cine , dlsoaso and health. Disease must too
recognized first , then study it. and then treat
It. To treat It was necessary to know tbo
remedies for it. Ho spoke of medicine -
, cine being practiced iu Omaha 100
years before he came hero , It was done
very effectively by "Blackbird , " nn Indian.
Dr. Mercer then related some reminiscences
of old times , and spoke of the birth of thn
medical college , how it had boon nursed and
reared. After paying a tribute to the fao-
ultv and collnRo and giving some ndvicoao
tbo students , ho concluded.
' , 'Tho Newspaper nnd the Physician" was
n toast responded to by Gilbert M. Hitch-
cook , LiL. D. Ho talked of medicine ads at
tbo "top of the column next topure , readme
mutter" and some other things that the
students know about pbyslans.
Judge W. W. Koysor responded to the
toast "Law and Medicine. " and told how
thov should bo administered.
' Specialism in Modlcina" was dwelt upon
by Dr. Harold Glftord.

OMAHA SCALPEHS WORKED.
They Purchased Worthless Tickets of nu
Alleged Uurglnr.
Harry Phllbin und Charles Saxo , the ticket
scalpers , haven't as much confidence in hu
manity as they had Wednesday morning. On
tbo afternoon of that day a stranger sold each
of them an unused ticket from Pacific Junc
tion to San Frnpclsco , nnd each of them gave
up ? 35 for _ tbo strip of blue paper nnd Its
coupons.
The tickets purported to have been Issued
by the Chicago , Burlington & Qulncy rail
road nt Bushtioll , 111. They were unlimited ,
which made them peculiarly valuable for
scalping. Tbo stranger said ho bad started
for California , but. on reaching Omaha had
been offered a Job as engineer pn the Union
Pacific at $125 a month. Hence his dcsira to
sell tbe ticket.
Ho told tbo same story to A , Forman , but
that scalper's suspicion was aroused because
be knew that tbo railroad did not payats
engineers n spocilied monthly salary. He
said ho would wire Busbnell to find out If
tie ticket was nil right , and ho kept it in his
possession. Ho was to pay the stranger yes
terday morning if satlsttcd that tbe ticket
was regular , but when ho came down town
ho dropped in upon bis orother scalpers to
compare notes. Of course they at once dIs-
coveroa that the Btrnngor had had throe
tickets , all alike , and the circumstances
stumped him as a fraud.
It appears tbat the Burlington office at
Bushnell was robbed Monday night of sixty-
six unlimited San Francisco tickets ,
The stranger gave bis name to Forman as
Johnny White. Ono of his hands is minus n
finger and ho has a mole on ono oar. Mr.
Saxo went to Lincoln yesterday In hope of
overhauling White , but failed.

Q ud the o ( Tor I up of prayer , Dr. Lenrd said
lint the occasion could not bo called a com

8i > mothlii About Seymour I'ark.
Dr. Loard then introduced Dr. Georpo L.
Miller , who was to spoaic upon the subject
"Seymour Park.'t Dr. Miller spoke with his
usual earnestness nnd enthusiasm , nnd was
'rcquoully applauded. Ho said thut ho ae
ccted the Seymour park farm twenty-three
years ago when it was a bleak praiiio with but
irrry few trees upon the entire -ISO acres. Ho
ivas Influenced very larnoly by the ndvlco of
Horatio Seymour in purchasing the lund.
His object was to improve it uad to leave to
succeeding concratlous something that
would bo a blessing and a bandit to the
.vholo people.
With tlils In view ho had planted more
linn 100,000 trees upon the land and ho bad
.ho satisfaction now of seeing a sturdy for
est growing up there that bo b'aa planted
with his own hand. In that beautiful park
ho had erected a substantial residence that
ho believed would stand for , 200 years.
A.bout two years ago ho. had been
vUttod by . a delegation , of promt-
i nor.t Presbyterians who . proposed to
ic
"
erect n theological seminary tnoro" " and had-
asked him what inducements ho would offer ,
t did not take him long , ho said , to make up
; iis mind. Ho offered the gentlemen twenty- "
live acres of land any place In tho" park if n
seminary building of certain dimensions and
character was erected within three years ,
"jater the proposition was accepted.
"Tho deed for thut laud Is teqdy for the
rnoteos of the seminary at any time they
wish to call for it , " said the generous
ipealter , and the audience applauded. Dr.
vllllcr then onterea " upon a lo.frtny doscrlp-
ion of the nark"proporty.and dwelt elo
quently upon the future of Omaha and the
usefulness of the theological seminary. Ho
referred to many interesting Incident- the
history of Omaha and said that the city was
nly in its babyhood.
Omnlm'rt Future Growth.
He predicted that there woro"people In the
iiouso who would llvo to see Omaha with n
population of 500,000. The city needed moral
nnd religious Institutions as much or1 tnoro
ban it needed brick blocks. Hoturnlng
laaln to the subject of Seymour park , Dr.
Miller said ho hoped to leave behind him
omothing that M ould perpetuate the hon-
ired name o ! tJovraunr. oven though , hs | own
might bo forgotten.
From Horatio Soyirour'ho'Miad Yecslved'r
the greatest and best inspirations of all bis'
life , excepting those be had rocpivetT "from
bis mother , and'bo proposed to du air in his
power to honor the name of Seymour. Ho
considered the establishment' atheo -
.npical seminary In Keyioour park one
of the very greatest things that he
could possibly accomplish In honoring the
mcmorr of a Christian'statesman and for the
eood of tbo rising generations in and around
Omaha. Ho navsed | everybody in tbo
audience to pin their faith to the future of
Omaha and push the seminary vigorously
forward.
Mr. John LJ. Kennedy spoke
interestingly upon the relation of
the theological seminary to the
church. Ho thought the time would come
when tbo seminary would bo looked upon as
the parent of the churches rather than the
child , because it would bo tho' llfo and
foundation of intellectual and spiritual light
for the chut ones. Ho thought the people of
Omaha should bo interested in the building
of the seminary. Everybody should help
push tbo institution to tbu front.
Dr. Stephen Phelns spoke briefly on the
work of the class. Heroferrea in oulocistic
terms to tbo earnestness and ability of the
young men who have finished the first year's

some stirring -words of encouragement < fn

Rov. E. M. Simons , a member of the class ,
then spoUo In a feeling manner or the estobin
in which the class bold the members of the
faculty. Prof. Doll of Bellevue rolloeo
also addressed the meeting in the
interests of general education. The
closing ndarcss was made by Hon.
Warren Switzlor on the "Ministers'of
Today. " Ho in ado a number of humorous
bits , but owing to tbo lateness of tbo hour
his add * ss was necessarily cut short. He
thought That tbo minister nt the period had
to possess a very wide ranso of ability In
order to succeed. Ho had to bo .ji financier ,
an orator and a pcaco maker com
bined , The dllTcronco between law
yers and ministers lay in the fact
that while ministers prayed on their knees
lawyers proved on their clients. Mr. SwlU-
ler was heartily in favor of pushing the now
bulldintr right ahead us fait us possible.

Students of political cconbmy-and men of
'ar-aighted views reached the conclusion
sometime , ago tnat the United States of
America , on ncc'ountof their dlmatlc advau-
tngos , their immonso'cxtent of country , the
enormous activity und uerve forco. of popula
tion , are destined in'tbo neat- uturo to become
the greatest nation of tho' lobo. As far ns
ngriculturalproducisnro concerned ; .tfioy are
virtually thut already , aurt there is no quej-
tlon but that in tbo near future their com
mercial supremacy willbo unquestioned.
Now , It is necessary in order to c-irry on
gigantic business and undertake great enter
prises when results of permanent value are
to bo secured and it is desirable that
affairs should , bo conducted on a sound
nnd permanent basis , that irroat corpora
tions inubt spriiiK up. It Is the
only possible plan by which the diversity of
interests can bo broucbt Into n homogenous
whole. Europe , and'moro particularly Eng
land , furnishes us with examples of what
co-operative or jolnt.'stockenterprises can do.
All their great banks , their gigantic manu
facturing concerns nna their enormous trad
ing companies arc corporate bodies. There
is not the slightest dotiot but that this
country has Just begun to sec the commence
ment of a like conmtUtU of affairs , only on a
far lamer scale as befits the extent of terri
tory to bosuppiloJ and the enormous busi
ness to bo done. .
It Is , therefore , ju t4s well nt the start to
have the popular mind free from any idea
that it is nccossury in order to carry on such
business that the 'concern shall be what is
commonly called a trust. The newspapers
generally have been raising a wild outcry
against trust' . Perhaps in sorao cases they
are justified , but in making these attacks
they ought to bo very careful that they Co
not include in their raids corporations which
are not trusts , never htivn been trusts und by
their very corpora to charter never can become
trusts. This fact wonts to ba berne very
clearly In mind. Attacks of tbo character
referred to increase tbo cost of the product
to the consumer , and those attacks ara made
in tbo face of the fact that tbo concentration
or capital in raanufacturini/ commercial
enterprises , as well us in the transportation
Industry , has of late years resulted
Invariably In lower prices to consumers
and lower rates to shippers. The as-
grngation under 0110 management of
many ol the rdpo nnd twlno manufacturing
concerns In this country has been followed
by lower prices for Vnolr product nnd cur
rent prices will probably bo furtuor lowered
as improved machineryis employed , and the
purchase of raw materials end the distribu
tion of manufactured goods is simplified ,
Tbo valua of the'articlo referred to lies in
the fact that it plfccoa'ibaforo tbo public cyo
In proper shupa oas at thase very largo cor
porations vybich has licon unjustly styled a
trust , bulls no moro'd trust than the news
paper which publlrada the attack. Tbo Na

Jablo Special to TUB BnK.l The police
ro certain that Havuohol Is responsible for

qunlly certain that ho ts guilty of murder

guilty of the last named crimes. But ho tlc-
los positively that ho Is riuponslbla for the

Oti the other baud , another nnnrchlst , who
vns arrostcd last Saturday , confessed on
3undny evening Hint Uavaohol intended to
blow up the Uuo Cllchy house , and ns the
xploslon had taken place several hours bo-
era ho tnailo his confession ho must have

The government has received bad news

A.n engagement has taken place on the fron-
lor of Morpcco between the French , expedi

In Dahomey the situation is indeed grave ,
dug Bohaiizln has attached two villages
vhich bnd boon placed under the
'ranch ' protectorate , onu has also fired upon
a steamer which had oa board the governor
of the colony and several wounded French
men. The savages in Dahomey nro certainly
hewing great nnlmoslty toward Frenchmen ,
and wo must send out a now expedition it wo
deslro to restore order thoro.
I hnvo learned this evening on the most in
disputable , I might almost say official ,
uthority , that during the sojourn of Em
peror William at Chatonu Hubortus an epe-
ratlon was performed on bis oar by Prof.
,3march. , An incision was made in thp
.ympnnum of his right oar nnd u
mall silver iubo was then inserted
n such a manner as to make
ho matter run moro freely. The operation
vas U thorough success , the emperor being
reed from pain nnd becoming stronger ns
eon ns It was o\jpr. An operation of the
sumo kind , but without a deep incision , bad
already bean ma Jo at Klol while the ompnror
was on \iis trip to Norway , and
this explains why ho Kept himself
secluded on hoard the VOSSQ ! for
eight days. In the same way his strict
seclusion nt Chateau Hubertus cau bo ac
counted for. At ono tinu the effusion of
.natter was accompanied by pain which was
larJly endurable , but before the matter bo-
gnn to ( low freely his suffering became so
rent that his mind appeared to , become
affected and another operation was necessary ,
this is interesting ncwj in view of the
political crisis in Germany.
