Hefcto the Young Women's Christian assoi
elation John Rush delivered an address on
"American Citizenship" last evening. He
cald In part :
Let us learn from the rcpuWIcs of the
past. Their overthrow was not due to ex
ternal enemies , but to Internal traitors , Are
we loyal to this great republic , the perfec
tion of man's effort for self-government ?
If so wo must eliminate every danger that
menaces us. That there are dangers cannot
bo denied. The abuses of the ballot box and
the flagrant disregard of many voters for
the nacred responsibilities Intrusted
to them are so palpable that
reformation or ruin Is Inevitable. Men
have obtained office by bribery , Intimidation
and Illegal voting. The saloon , too , has
been an omnipotent factor In politics. We
must correct these evils at once. We must
protect the purity of the ballot box and sur
round It by an atmosphere of righteousness
and morality. Incumbents of public offices
must realize that they arc servants of the
proplc. A public servant ihould bo honest ,
conscientious , courteous nnd absolutely Im
partial. He should riot be Influenced by
race , color , religion or nationality. Above
all things , he should not be a bigot , for a
bigot violates one of the most Important
fundamental principles of the constltut on.
Public records should be kept up to date ,
where such a thing Is posilhlc. The head
long pursuit of the almighty dollar must
ceaee. Our desire to become rich has In
many cases blunted our moral sensibilities.
Too many are actuated by the lutentlon to
ninko money honestly , If they can , but to
make It anyhow. Has not this state of af-
falri been amply proved by the financial ruin
brought upon our country In the last twelve
I months' ?
One great sin charged up against us Is
on account of a desire to get rich quickly.
I refer particularly to the relations between
employer and employe. To defraud the la
borer of his wages Is a grievous sin. But
how many of our railroads and factories are
continually , perhaps unconsciously , guilty of
this crime. Is there not something wrong
In the labor market when 100,000 men volun
teer to tramp from all points of the compass
nnd from the most distant parts of the con
tinent to Washington for the purpose of ex
pressing a grievance ? Harsh and heartless
( selfishness dominates the man who hires
labor. Not only docs ho get his work done
as cheaply as he can , but he takes every ad
vantage of the laborer.
It Is with fear and trembling that I approach
preach a subject which demands our atten
tion , and the attention of every good
citizen In the land. Great cities
of old wcro destroyed on account
of the flagrant violation of one of
God's commandments. From the creation
of man down to the present day God's
wrath has followed him who violated the
eacrcd laws of purity. What Is true of
the Individual Is true of the nation. It a
people disregard this solemn Injunction It
Is only a question of tlmo when they suc
cumb. Ruin and chaos must surely come
If our public morality be not Improved.
The hunting to death or despair of the un
fortunate victim of man's concupiscence
Is not a remedy for the qvll that. I com
plain of , an evil which Is 'growing ' In pro
portion to our wealth and our extravagance.
Instead of shutting our hearts to an un
fortunate wall of woe \\o should do all In
odr power to .transform the victim Into a
Magdalene and hid her go and sin no more.
Laws should bo framed to punish the man
who drags a woman's purity Into tlio dust.
> MK Rush hero made a few comments
on the Brecklnrldge 'case and declared em
phatically that such a man was not lit to
hold any position.
Immigration , ho said , must be restricted ,
but that restriction mt'st apply only to the
wicked and vicious classes. We must see
to It that the anarchists of Europe , who
ccoIT at God's laws and civil governments ,
are kept at home. Tyranny and irrcllgion
have created them and tyranny and Irre-
llglon should have no anchorage In the
United States.
After speaking about the present form of
naturalizing a foreigner , Mr. Rush stated
that many who had adopted this country's
colors had proved better citizens than some
born In this country. He said that an
American citizen was a sovereign greater
and mightier than any pope or potentate.
"I am a Catholic , " said he , "but should the
head of tli3 Catholic church attempt to dic
tate to me as to my relations to this or any
civil government In the world , or to abridge
my civil rights In any way , I would spurn
the unauthorized act with the same prompt
ness that I would should the queen of Eng
land make such an absurd demand. The
Christian church will never attempt to In
fringe upon the domain of the state.
"I am convinced that the moro sincerely
wo believe In God and acknowledge our de
pendence upon Him , the moro nearly shall
wo become Ideal citizens. "
. I'ccullar to Itself.
So eminently successful has Hood's Sarsa-
parllla been that many leading citizens from
all over the United States furnish testimonials
menials of cuics which seem almost mirac
ulous , Hopj's Sarsaparllla Is not an accident ,
but the ripe fruit or industry and study. It
possesses merit "peculiar to Itself. "

EJECTING SQUATTERS.
Constable Adiima Meets i Very Warm He.
> ccptlon In Nliiiiitytonn ,
The First National Uank of Chicago Is
ejecting the squatters from the company's
property cast of the Metz Bros' , brewery.
Constable W. R. Adams superintends the
work. It Is far from being a pleasant occu
pation. The dogs attack on flank and rear ,
nnd two old ladles aspired to'become Omaha
Hamptons. Ono of the men at work In tearIng -
Ing down a shanty was approached In no
gentle way by on ax-bearlng amazon. Ho
fled for his life , and was successful. An
other lady did not approve of the phrenolog
ical bumps of Mr. Adams. She seized a
broom and shaped his head to her own Ilk-
Ing. Aside from these t\\o the people have
offered no resistance.
Moat of the children cry as their homes are
demolished , and that Is harder to bear than
the dogs. It will bo necessary to pull down
but a few of the shanties. The people see
what Is going to bo done and are moving
away. They arc settling along the river and
show no love for life In upper Omaha.

Unlor tlint Cnusr * Chief
Sciucjr to Ilcftltntc.
Tlio Hoard of Flro nnd Police Commis
sioners concluded last night tlint some ol
Us business ought to be conducted privately
and voted against Strlcklcr's resolution to
abolish secret sessions.
It adopted the resolution Instructing Chief
Senvey to raid houses of Ill-reputo where
liquor Is being sold , as It Is alleged , without
a city license. A few years ago the chief at
tempted to carry out Instructions similar to
these Incorporated In Stickler's resolution ,
and ho not only got Into a serious damage
suit , but the proprietors of the houses beat
him In every case he brought against them
In the courts. The chief Is now thinking of
securing legal talent to protect him from
having to enforce this order , or else he Will
ask the board to Indemnify him In case ho Is
mulcted for damages In the courts for carryIng -
Ing out the Instructions which he has been
given.
The attorneys for Captain Cormlck 'ap
peared before the board and requested ( hat
body to declda one way or the other the case
pending against their client at thin meeting.
The board considered the matter for a cou
ple of hours In secret session and then an
nounced that It had adjourned without tuk-
Ing any action In the matter. .
After the regular business the board
had been disposed of Attorney Kansom
asked permission to Introduce1 allldtivlts
frcm OHlccrs Vanous und Drummy regardIng -
Ing the latuiiiRO used by Captain Cormlck
di'rlng the quarrel between Sergeant Snoop
and the former. These witnesses had been
subpoenaed by Sheep , but they were not put
on the stand. It Is said that their testi
mony would have been n direct impeach
ment of Jailer Debout , who was positive
that the captain used vile and obscene
language toward Sheep , The board con
tended that this would be a practical re-
cpcnlng of the case , and It did not feel dls-
pcted to do this. Then Cormlck's attorneys
said that they were willing to let the case
go as It was , and all they wanted was to
have the matter settled at once , as It
oetnipd to them to be an Injustice to the
captain to be Indefinitely suspended pending
final action.
The board granted the policemen the priv
ilege of holding their annual picnic at Dlalr
on June 13. The commissioners will per
sonally Inspect the force on the afternoon
of May 30.
Chief Seavcy repeated his request that ho
be given funds for special detective work In
securing evidence against saloon keepers and
gamblers , whom he claim * are violating the
statutes and ordinances with persistent reg
ularity. The matter was referred to a
committee.
Mayor Uemls appointed Theodore Dennett
as a special policeman for duty at the City
Hotel beer hall. Dennett's bondsmen were
I. S. Huscall and George W. McKInney.
The mayor also appointed George O. Horn
as special policeman at 1'rlnce's beer garden ,
flls bondsmen were George A. Dennett and
iV. C. Tlmme. The appointments were con
firmed by the board.
Chief Detective II. P. Haze was granted
ten days leave of absence to visit his par
ents , Oincer Godola was allowed three days ,
and Firemen Ellington fifteen days , Herald
five and Hoffman ten days.
William Gorman , who resigned from fire
company No. 4 about a year ago , made an
application to be reinstated. . '
Mrs. II. D. Pcattle , leader , and Mrs. T. P.
Cartwrlgh * . secretary , of the department of
philanthropy and reform of the Woman's
: lub , sent the board a communication a'klng
hat the patrol wagons be covered and that
he board provide an ambulance for the con
veyance of Injured persons. The secretary
of the board was ordered to acknowledge the
receipt of the letter and place the epistle on
file.
Commissioner Coburn said that he desired
to liavo a few fire captains' appointments
confirmed. They were-those of George Blake ,
who has been acting as temporary captain
since September , 18D1 ; George C. Miller ,
since July , 1892 ; J. J. Lank , since February ,
1800 , and M. J. Cuff , since January , 1803.
The appointments of the men wcro con
firmed.
There was a littlestdo talk had to the
effect that unless the board could ralso more
'unds It would have to discontinue service
at some of the engine houses In the out
skirts of the city or else reduce the number
of firemen.
Chief Detective II. P. Haze filed a report
of his Investigations Into the allegations that
August Grubo was running two saloons on
one license. Ho reported that he had found
3rube's wife In charge of a restaurant near
the fort and that Grube was conducting a
saloon at the corner of Thirtieth and Spauld-
ng streets. Ho Informed the board that If
10 was allowed enough money to send a
man out there to try to buy a bottla of beer
at the restaurant ho might possibly secure
a case against the accused. One. of the
members remarked that he thought that
was what they were paying Haze for.
Officer Mitchell reported that ho saw
several men going In and out of Peterson's
saloon at Fifteenth and Webster streets
ast Sunday and ho wanted the saloon
teeper arrested for that.
Officer Edgehlll reported that ho saw a
nan come out of Fred Dahltrian's saloon
at Eighteenth and Leavenworth streets last
Sunday with what appeared to him to be.
a can of beer , but he didn't know whether
t was or not. He reported the matter to
Acting Captain Slgwart , who wante'd 1 the
Ity prosecutor to file charges against the
accused. The prosecutor refused to do this
n such evidence and the ofllccru claim
hat they cannot enforce the lawtf tinder
uch conditions. Detectives Hayes and Savage -
ago secured enough evidence against Phil
Snyder to cause his arrest , and the casp Is
now pending In the police court. Sergeant
> hoop also reported a coupleof violators ,
nit his evidence was of such a nature- that
ho city prosecutor refused to file com-
ilolnts.

There Is n very pleasant attractiveness
about "Ermlnle , " Jocobowskl's bright and
pretty lyrlo story , that ago cannot wither
nor custom stale. It abounds In catchy
choruses , llko "A Soldier's Life , " and dainty
soil that have been sung and resting until
they have grown to bo old friends. Fhu
"Lullaby" which Ennlnlo sings In the second
end act Is one of the most graceful compo
sitions In the domain of comic opera , and
the duo for the two thieves , "Jail Dlrds. "
and the solo for Cadctix are the helghth
or clever versification as well as
musical notation. In addition to the
Score , which Is representative of the most
advanced class of the modern opera , the
book Is splendidly written , Harry Paulton
having given a local environment to the for
eign story which catches the fancy.
Last night "Tho Carlctons" gave "Er
mlnle , " and , taken In Its entirety , the per
formance was thoroughly satisfactory , not
withstanding that considerable of the music
was cut for the purpose undoubtedly of the
Introduction of songs now to the opera and
generally now to the stage , Miss Hell nnd
Mr. Taylor Interpolating two dainty ballads ,
while Mr. Corlcton sang his piece do re
sistance. "Rose Marie. " The opera was
splendidly cast. Miss Vincent and there Is
no more painstaking nor capable woman on
the stage singing Urmlnlo with entire credit
to herself , , looking and acting the part splen
didly. Javotto lived In Miss Hell , who dis
played In her work a wldo range , singing
the music as written with all the ease of n
trained prlma donna , although she is usually
cast for Boubrettcs. Mr. Carleton was In ex
cellent voice and played Ravcnne with his
old-tlmo vigor , his confrere and fellow
brigand , Cadeux , being well rendered by
Tom Rtckctts , who Is growing greatly In
the estimation of the audience , ns ho shows
In each character strong Individuality. Mr.
Taylor made a very loyal Eugene , while
Miss \Vlsdoin as the marchioness was de
cidedly' strong acquisition , to the cnsmnblc.
The other parts were well played. The opera
IB well mounted and costumed , and ought to
bo able to Increase the business over last
week.
