" Mrs. Dr. Hh odes ot St. Louis opqncd the discus- Blbn with nn able paper. She dwelt ear nestly upon the importance of the work Undertaken by the young people in connec tion with the missionary society. The speaker believed that it was not best to encourage the organization of n separate young people's organization for missionary Work , but bettor results , she thought , could bo obtained by getting the young people's organizations already in existence to tuke Hiold of the missionary work. Young en thusiasm nnd energy could accomplish marvelous results for the Master if properly directed. Mrs. J. II. Dlmm of Sollnsgrovo , Pa. , road an excellent paper upon the same BUbjoct.

It is not often that two moro interesting or instructive missionary , talks are hoard in Omaha than those delivered last night at the ICountzo Memorial Lutheran church. As a par.t of the regular program of the Women's Homo nnd Foreign Misslqnary so ciety the subject of foreign missions was given thy entire evening and two speakers of practical experience in thn foreign Held were present to tell what they know of the condition of the benighted people of India nnd Africa. Mrs. J , F. Scholl of Splinsgrovo , Pa. , pro- elded over the mooting , and Introduced ns the first speaker Mrs. A. Wolf of Quntur , India. The distinguished missionary la a portly nnd prepossessing lady , who has a happy manner in jvhleh she presents her thoughts to the audience. Shu took special jmlns to impress upon the ladies before her the iicod of more missionary help in India. nnd said that she hopud she might bu able to say something that would onrournga soinool lior sisters to bccomo energetic and consecrated crated missionaries , The speaker then proceeded to explain the plan of work in the Guntur mission , how they managed to support it , the poculliirltit of the people nnd tholr strange prejudices nud habits. Situ said that a great umounl of good could bo accomplished through the American doll. The Indian girls won frantically fond of American dolls nnd wonlt dojklmost anything to cot them. Bynmk ing them presents of dolls thb mlssionarlc : wuro enabled to gel the native Indians K leant the English language and the bible In till * way thousands of them were buiiif brought under the Influence of Christianity There was ono peculiar thing about the rtoll business , however. Tlio Indian chlldro : would have nothing to do with u del that had kid on its hands or feet They despised leather and especially hli leather. This antlpMhy for leather was e\ plained in the fact that in India thn loathe : worker waflooked upon as being the lowes of all menials , She described the plni M adopted by the mission in getting the boy ; uud girls married and settled in ilfo.

The parties Interested nv naked about the matter after it has boai ngrood by the manager * of the mUsloi ichool that they will tult each other , As i Culo tue girl * whimper and pretend tua they do not want to marry , but they usually change their minds pretty soon and say yes , lust as tholr moro mtthly civilized sisters In Kuropo nnn Amcrlc.v do. The nddrcss was very much enjoyed nnd Mrs. Wolf was nskod n number of questions nt the close pertaining to the work she had been describing. I'rom Unrkcst Afrlc.i. Kov. I ) . A. Day , D.D. . of Muhlcn- 1 > crg mission Liberia , Africa , was then Introduced nnd delivered nn In teresting talk nbout the mission work nt the Muhlcnbcrg mission , Llborl.i. Dr. Day hns been In Africa for ton years nnd would not bo In America how. ho said , but for the fact that ho had lived away from civilization so long that ho was In danger of growing Into savagery If ho did not leave that country for awhile and come Into n dif ferent moral nnd Intellectual atmosphere. Ho told a great ninny interesting things nbout thn native Africans nnd pictured their degradation in vivid colors. The si > caker described the method of teaching and Raid that the mission of Muhlonhcrg had 140 acres In cultivation and 10,000 acres of cleared land around it. Hearing upon tlip matter of matrimony the speaker said that whllo the native language had no such words ns homo , wife nnd love In It , yet when the boys were taken Into the mission school nnd trained for throe or four years they took to courtlns the girls just the same as the young people ot civilized nations did. The mating tendency was evidently latent in the breasts of the savaeo African and all that was required to develop It was a llttlo general training under the direction of educated and Chris tian people. I'roilnrt of Clvlllrntlon. The ardent missionary then turned to a phase of his address that urcscnted any thing but a clear sky. It was the prevalence of Intemperance resulting from the Importa tion of rum from England , Germany and America , The speaker grow tremendously earnest over the matter , and said that if Christian nations such as England , Germany and this United States did not cease ship ping largo quantities of rum to Africa there would bo no use of trying to carry forward the uork. Dr. Day spoke at considerable length and received close attention. The spoakci an swered several questions nnd made his talk ono of much Interest nil the way through. A service preparatory to the holy com munion , which will bo observed next Sunday , was held for the especial benefit of these who wjshcd to attend.

Dy reference to the * 'Statls- Ics of Cities In the United States" the ; ibovo statement will bo borne out. There is not another city in the entire list where the assessed valuation of personal property Is so ° ow as in Omaha. In the above cities about one-half of the assessment is on personal property. But to be on the safe side , say that not over one- fourth of the assessment is on personal iroporty , which proves time In many of tno iibovo cities , whore the population Is less than that of Omaha , the assessment of per sonal property is moro than on all the real and personal property combined in Omaha. If olio-fourth is taken as the basis the as sessed valuation of personal property in the rival city of Denver is 318-)00.000 ; St. Paul , Kn.a75.000 ; Minneapolis , i5.000,000 : Kansas City. S10.048i03 ! ; Sioux City , la , , $4,750,000. Yet by the returns of the assessors Omaha's assessment of personal property amounts to $2,070,0152 ( ? 2,070S \ : ! loss than Sioux City- ) provided we tuku one-fourth ns the assessed valuation of the personal property. But In most of the cities , especially the older towns , the assessed valuation of the personal prop erty is equal to the value of the real property. Heal property bears moro than Its just proportion of taxation In Omaha. And every person , bo ho rich or poor , who owns n lot In Omalia , pays more for the bencllls and protection ho receives than the money shark or capitalist or the person who has bonds , stocks or personal property. Take , for Instance , the Third ward. The assessment of personal property this year Is $ ll28.tXl. ! ) Corporations which have paid up capital of several hundred thousand dollars lars are assessed for a few thousand. Largo wholesale houses that carry stocks worth hundreds of thousands pay a tax on from 4JI,000 ! , to $7,000 of personal property. Im wbo has any Irtiowledgo as to the values of personal property , knows that there is not less than $50,000,000 of personal property in the Third ward ( by personal property Is moanl stocks , bonds , stocks of merchandise , iold ; and silver wares In fact , everything of value that Is not real property ) and the same manner of assessing personal property doca not differ In every other ward In the city. If the personal property In Omaha were assessed nt an amount equal to one-fourth of the value of the real estate it would amount to about $1,000,001) instead of $ . ' ,500,000 , Every man nnd woman , no matter how rloh or poor , who Is taxed on real estate should domain ! from these who have the power the county commissioners that a reassessment of the personal property bo made la Omaha. And every ono should con stitute himself a committee to leave no stone unturned until thosn owning personal property pay their Just portion of taxes for municipal purposes. Heal estate pays the regular state , city and county taxes , special paving , curbing , sewer and sidewalk taxes , nnd the persona ownlnif personal property got all the benefits by disposing ol wares and leaving money at interest.

Dressed in their snowy white costumes and profusely bedecked with natural flowers ttioy presented an enchanting scene to the graduates as they appeared from the ante room ono at a time.

I'cptlonVlll llcoelvn 1'rotnpt Al ton t Ion Timely Yncntlon , Mayor Bomls , Chlnf ot Police Seavoy , Dr. Somcrs nnd Plumbing inspector Duncan were out In their collective ofilolal capacity ycstcrilay afternoon , ns the Board of Health. They Inspected the sanitary arrangements of various Omaha charitable and educational institutions. The Kullom school was llrst visited , and the Smoad system of sanitation , concerning the cfilcicncy of which there has Doon some doubt , was thoroughly investigated and found to bo thoughly satisfactory and work ing excellently. Next , the board was driven to the Open Door nt No. 1007 Lothrop street , lloro everything was found to bo In n condition that can best bo described ns "noat us wax , " from top Xo bottom. A few slight repairs nro needed on the woodwork of the sinks , but they nro Insignificant , and the Open Door may bo said to bo In first-class sanitary condition. After leaving the Open Door the now Lothrop street school building was visited for the purpose of Inspecting the fuller ft Warren system. The building Itself was also gene over and the ventilating provi sions wcro sized up. "Tho youngsters nowadays have a far softer time than they did when I was n boy , " slclicd Mayor Hernia , \ylio was evidently thinking of the llttlo rod , brown or tmpalntud and weather-beaten school house and hard , straight-backed benches of his childhood. "When I was a kid wo used to have to go outdoors for fresh nlr. " Immanucl hospital was next visited , nnd was found to bo in good condition. Its In terior fairly shines from top to bottom , and when the institution gets sewer connection , ns It expects to do next fall , nothing will bo lacking In its provisions for comfort and health , At present cesspools are receiving the sewage of the hospital , but they In no wise affect its excellent sanitary condition , the principal objection to them bolng that they are behind the times. L.imcntHlili ! Stitto of Aniilrn. It was the Nebraska Instltuto for the Deaf that next received the attention of the board which has boon hearing a good deal about that Institution of late and has , on the strength of Inspectors'reports , addressed several communications to Superintendent Gillespio , requesting that matters reported on bo attended to. Thcso communication1) the superintendent called , attention to In a letter addressed to the Board of Public Lands and Buildings , written yesterday , just before the arrival of the health oflleers. After the inspection ho was enabled to add a vigorous postscript to his letter. It would appear to the casual observer that there is not a tnlng nt the institute that is not out of repair , especially the sani tary arrangements. The building's condi tion , below and in the rear , may bo briefly dc34'ribed us "beastly , " and no loss. The sewage , that is , to say , that portion of it that docs not leak out in various parts of the house , is disposed of through 11 pipe and distributed above ground at a point about 2.V ) yaras dis tant. It was the opinion of the visitors that this should bo changed , but It is nothing compared to the couditlon of the building , which reeks with overflows of various kinds on account oj defective plumbing. - Superintendent Gillespio last wintcrasltcd the legislature for 57,000 for repairs and Incidentalsilunng the next two years. That far-seeing body , with wonderful oxorclso of Judgment , appropriated the magnificent ouni of 81,000 to pay for repairs , horsa food , kcro- suno and other incidentals during the period specillod , when it will cost 3,500 for the mere plumbing required to put the building in a habitable condition. It I * within the power of the Board of Health to offer to the Board of Public Land ; ) and Buildings the alternative of putting the building in good condition or close it ui > . This is what would bo done , but in that case the institution would bo closed , for there is no money to make repairs with , nnd the Board of Public Lands and Buildings could take no other action. It is a very serious condition of alfnirs , and will bo carefully considered at the next regular meeting of the Board of Health , which may , if It can legally do so , have the necessary repairs made at the expense of the city and charge the same to the state. At any rate , some action will bo taken in the matter. The institute closed on Thursday for the summer , and there Is , therefore , no danger to bo apprehended until September , beloro which tlmo something may be done to Im prove the conditions now existing. The county hospital was the last institu tion visited. Here the sanitation , whllo it is not all that could bo desired , is fairly good , tliero bolng no leakages of gas or sowago. The principal fault appears to bo that soap and water and n scrubbing brush are not used quite often enough on tha sur roundings of the closet apparatus and that the necessary amount of ventilation is lacking.

Bo far ns I cnn gather , however , from well In formed sources , there Is no particle of truth In the wlilelv spread statement that whis pers of some disaster to the Campcrdown were abroad In tlio aorvico ohiDs on Thurs day night. The llrst news was conveyed in i\ telegram addresso.l the first lord of the Ad miralty , which arrived in London nt4wn. : : m. The ofilcmls in charge of , C-OUMO , un conscious of the awful importance of the nwssago contained , took the usual course and did not send It tothoilr.it lord's rosi idunco until some hours later. Hence It was nearly 10 o'clock before the news was actually known at the Admiralty , and high noon before the news ngoncios and newspaper - paper officials received thoTirst hint of the story. I am glad to say that the brlof dispatches containing the e.wntlnl facts were sent by the Herald correspondent to Now York and Paris on the wires before any rumor was nlloat In I ondon , and uv few mlnutos before the porsonaf telegram of Prince Henry of Battonborg convoyed the news to mcmbcra of the Constitutional club. The afternoon papers were apparently- paralyzed by the magnitude of the greatest naval disaster of the last quarter of a century. No single paper contained oven nscomploto an account ns might easily have boon accomplished. In the clubs and on the streets tonight , naturally , It Is the solo topic of conversation. The regret expressed at Tryon's loss shows the universal cstoom In which that oftlcor was hold. Moanwhllo the feverish anxiety for further details will not likely , bo Im mediately gratified , for though the Admiralty declares that nil news It receives will bo given to the public immediately , the chances are that no dolliilto account of the disaster , save the names of these lost , will bo received till the Oampordown roachus Malta. at .Mitltit.
