JERSEY CITY , June 16. The old but extensive - tensive abbatolr of the 'Central Stoclc and Transit _ _ company In HarsimuVicovo , Just south of Pavonla avenue , was 'totally de stroyed by fire this evening- the total loss .reaching almost $1,000,000. Built Jon" piles , the structure of two stories was entirely of wood , but the machinery was costly , whllo the amount of stock , Including dressed best , mutton and upwards of 1.000 live slieep and lambs went to swell the loss. Nov one ap pears to know the cause of the flre , but Sat urday Is a half holiday , and one of ; the few men at work may have possibly broken the rigid rules of the company and smoked , the match or the light of his cigar causing the conflagration. The fire , which broko.iout In the alley adjoining the fat room , and about 100 feet from the outer end of the 'building ' was flrstvsecn by Watchman James Mc Carthy. He did not make an Instant turn in of the alarm , and he had to rua to make his escape , leaving his , clothing , which ho had hung up In the ofllce when he wont off duty. Ho believes that of the twelve or fourteen men at work In the building nil eseapcd. But when the Associated press reporter left the groynd William Martin , the cook in the restaurant , was missing. The building was erected In 1871 , over the water of old Harslmus cove , wllh "a frontage- of SOU feet on the river , nnd extending back for about COO feet. The spread of the flames was so rapid thai In flteen minutes the whole space was a mass of flames , which caught the cattle boat Burlington and the barge refrigerator before they could bo loosened ened from the dock ; also the coal barge Hoffman , belonging to Brand. White & Co. The flro tugs of the Erie railroad and ten belonging to the Pennsylvania road , together with the private tug R. C. Raymond and the Now York police boat , responded quickly to the calls and did their best , but the coal trestle of the Pennsylvania road on the piers to the south was damaged to the extent of $5,000 , nnd a number of cars loaded with coal were In th * siding. The craft on flro were towed Into thu river and cut loose. The Burlington was the only ono destroyed , the barges being only damaged to the extent of a few hundred dollars each. The rlvor front on the New York Bldo.was lined with thousands of spectators attracted by the brilliant spectacle. Fears were en. tortalned for the safety of tlio great Erie grain' elevator , but , fortunately , the wlna blow In the other direction. Within two hours from the outbreak of the flames thcra was nothing left but a glowing pllo of cin ders , wlch covered about fouracros of ground. The losses were $ SOO,000 , of which $600,000 Is on the building and machinery , The Central Stock and Transit company Is partly owned , by many of those doing busi ness In the plant , but the majority of the shares are owned by the Pennsylvania Rail road company , Senator McPhcrson and Simon H. Smith. Over 700 men are thrown out of employment by the tiro. No data could be given as to the Insurance , but It Is said to about one-third ot the loss. Balloon aft , and.evo.

The Masons Imvo been the most nctlve o tlio secret societies during tlio past week the Scottish nito banquet , shrlno pilgrlmagi to Grand Island nml tlio work of preparatlor for tlio coming session of tlio grand lodge serving to occupy the time pretty thoroughly The Scottish Kilo banquet was held al Masonic hall Tuesday evening , and was bill the first of n scries of similar social enter talnments that are to be given for the mem' bers of llio order and their wives , sons am ! daughters. It was n thoroughly enjoyable occasion and highly pleasing to all who were there. The early part of the evening was de voted to a stercoptlcon entertainment , will views of statuary and scenes of the war They were put on by Perry Lyons , captain general of Mount Calvary commander ? , and the explanatory feature was In the able hands of Ilev. T. J. Mackay. Entertain ing addresses were made by Her. T. J , MackAy , L. M. Hheom and Judge W. W , Koysor. At 10 o'clock the company pro ceeded downstairs to the dining hall , where a delicious supper was served. The pilgrimage of the shrlncrs to Grand Island Wednesday morning was one thai will not soon bo forgotten by the nobles ol Tangier temple. The start from Omaha was made by about flfty nobles of Tangier , and constant accessions were received along the road , there J > elng over seventy-five In the party when It reached Grand Island. Sesos- trls temple sent forty nobles from the South I'latte country , the greater number of them being from Hastings. The total number present exceeded .200. They were met at the train by a band and marched through the city to a hull that had been especially se cured for the occasion , as the Masonic hall was not largo enough to accommodate them. Twenty-two candidates were Initiated , the ceremonies of the evening being eminently satisfactory to all , as they were * of the most pleasant character. At 11 o'clock the tra ditional banquet was served by the ladles of the Episcopal guild. The visiting nobles de clare that they never sat down to a prettier banquet table , and are enthusiastic In their praise of the entertainment. The tables were arranged In the form of an X , and were elaborately decorated with flowers , flags and the emblems of the order. The ladies had taken extraordinary pains , and the general appearance was decidedly metro politan. The local nobles had likewise done all In their power , and to their efforts was duo tho. greatest success that the nobles of Tangier have achieved outside of Omaha. This "was the second time that they liad temporarily moved their temple out Into the state , a special dispensation having been granted 'by ' the Imperial potentate. Tangier and Sesostrls temples are the only ones In the state , covering respectively the North and South Platte sections , and each lias a large membership from the central and western portions of the state. These members are necessarily unable to derive much benefit from the temple , owing to the great distance nt which they resldo and the cost of coming. It was to give them the ilasuro and benefit of a local temple that : he chartge was"tcmporarlly made. Tho'all-Important topic In shrine circles at the present time Is the coming meeting of the Imperial council at Denver , July 24. 3reat preparations are bqlng tnado by that city for tno entertainment of the 5,000 nobles who will make the pilgrimage thither. New York will send' a. delegation of 500 , Cincin nati 200 , nnd'Tanglerntemple , yiill also "turn out'200 nobles for the trip. A > special train will be at their disposal , and an approprla- lon of $500 has already' been made for en tertainment and headquarters. Tangier's representatives In the Imperial council are Colonel II. C. Akin and James Gilbert of ) maha and Henry Gibbon of Kearney. Colonel Akin Is a memberof the committee on ritual , appointed by the Imperial council. The conclave , which Is now held annually , Is attracting a great deal of attention , be cause of Its pageantry and the magnificent character of Its demonstrations. The sessions of the Masonic grand lodge of Nebraska , which will bo held in this city the coming week , beginning next Wednes day and continuing three days , will draw about COO members of the order here at that time. There arc now 224 lodges In the state , and all will be represented. Flcnlo of tlio Workmen.

With keen discernment the faithful critic carefully scans the solid work of the nil- thor , recognizing the ch'Vntoil rnimc of thought , the rare diction , the directness of purpose , UH promise nml ml Mlon. nnd with almo.it prophetic vision , the result. The superllclnl render , dwelling nt lengtn upon cxtcilotmurks nlone , with slight exercise of thought , turns quickly to the glided surface of the binding , expresses n brier opinion nnd dismisses the case from sight nnd mind. How like to these the Judgments of man upon mnn passing onch day In review be fore the world. With what profuic liberality do we bcnp on the favorite of the hour praises suited to the ! doer of worthy dccdH , rather thnn on the true victor In the hard won light , who often Is accorded Ilttln more thnn n final wnve of the hand. This "Ilnrlty of human charity , " hard nnd cold ns It Is , serves us a lesson In teaching of the Instability of human things. As particles of dust carried by a whirl wind fall back to the cnrth from which they came , men nweop onwnrd nnd disap pear , to be forgotten by their fellow men. As a ladder bullded of precious stone < < , lives of Just men Hhlno in the sight of God. As a far-reaching carpet of sprlnir'n fair est flowers me their woiks , nnd jhc fra grance of bloHsom nnd bloom Is borne be yond our ken to eternal shores , whose beauty pnsscth understanding- . Snatched away by that mysterious power which we term death , a youne priest , but slightly known to the busy , buxUIng world , lenveH vacant a visible place In halls ot learning- and divinity. As student nnd teacher , reaching upward for n crown , he has stepped higher , nearer to the Master of all Science , whoso light Is the Holy Ohost. Ho was nn Irishman ; one of whom Ireland tuny well be proud. One of whom Ireland might some day hnvo written and sung. One for whom Ireland may weep her purest tears. He was a noble representative of the priesthood , brave , refined , witty , of fine address , tal ented and cultuicd by studv and travel. He was fitted to adorn lofty places on the pilgrim road of life. Leaving a cadctshlp in her majesty's service for tlmt of the mightiest of nil powers , ho made hlB morning's offering of the first fruits and flowers of the day to the Lord of Hosts. That model of valiant. Boldlcr-klnd , Se bastian , was to him an Instructor In en durance , even unto death , If needs bo. Agnes , the child-martyr of early Chris tian Home , was to him the Ideal of thb beautiful In saintly annals. The catacombs through which ho hod wandered whilst In foreign lands furnished to his rich poetic Imagination endless topics for reflection and conversation. Peace be to his soul , who , In going forth , secma to have left open a portal past which the light Is shining , so that we may almost think we hear these words : Once more to thee , oh. King of Kings ! I raise my voice in praise sublime , Where nil the choir of heaven sings Thy work of Immemorial time. Few years I lingered on the earth , Led by the Guardian thou didst give. Now , Spirit of Eternal Birth , Korevermore I live , I live. I strove to dwell near to Thy feet , And Thou didst set my spirit free. Oh. b.acred Heart , so strong nnd sweet ! Oh , Crown of Thorns that bloomed for me ! ESMEUALDA BOYLE. Washington , D. C. , June , 1891. - _ 'X. M. Jj. Anilrows. A week ago , In company with Mr. Herbert Howell and Mr. William Ruff , Mr. M. L. Andrews took a run to Plattsmouth on his wheel. As they returned they stopped at the Platte river and went In bathing. They all started out , but Mr. Andrews turned fov another plunge. His companions expected him to come out at once and began dressing. They heard no outcry , and only realized that he had not come out when they ran along the bank unable to see him anywhere. They then ralsQd the alarm and did everything - thing In their power to .find him , but were unsuccessful. His brother-in-law , C. G. Scott , went down on the next train , "and the search was con tinned late Into the night and all the nex day , but the water was so high nnd the cur rent so swift that It was almost Imposslbl to do anything. Another party continue ! the search the next day , but could only re port the encouraging fact that the watc was glng down. The following day Mr. WII Ham Bushman and Mr. P. L. Gregory returned with Mr. Scott from Omaha -am Mr. Frank Miller from La Platte , and th. search again began In a most thorough man ner. About 2 o'clock In the afternoon th body was found by Messrs. Bushman a Miller and taken to Plattsmouth to be pre pared for burial. Thursday morning It was brought home and Interred at Forest Lawn The deceased was 31 years of ago and ta < been for a number of years the support an mainstay of the family. He was a yount man of unusual ability , having occupied po sitions of responsibility for more than tn years. At the time of his death hoa auditor for the Cudahy Packing company where he was very popular. For a numbe : of years he had been In poor health , suffer Ing constantly , and sometimes Intensely , ye was never heard to complain , and nlnibP never spoke of his suffering , even to hi1 mother. His was one of the most unselfish lives ever lived , always delighting In doing something that would benefit some of his less fortunate fellows. His untimely deatli has cut off the promise of a brilliant future , The family have the deepest sympathy o ; their many friends In their great loss. From Oniitlc to ( Jruvo. Mr. nnd Mrs. John M. Thurston of this city have Just been bereaved of their Infant son , John Poland Thurston , aged II months vcho succumbed to the 'shock to his system resulting fronv an operation performed at St. Luke's hospital , Chicago , am Thursday afternoon last , for the purposeof removing a congenital tumor from the back and loner part of his head. The body was brought to Omaha for burial , reaching hero about 2 o'clock on Friday afternoon. The funeral services , which were held at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Thuis- ton at 5 o'clock the same evening , were Im pressively conducted by Rev. T. J. Mackay , pastbr of All Saints Episcopal church , aided by n quartet from the samn church. The Interment took place at Prospect Hill cemetery , in the family lot , beside two other children of Mr. and Mrs. Thurston. The grave was lined with a profusion of flowers , tlio tiny casket itself being covered with floral offerings. John. Poland Thurston was an unueually bright and healthy child , and his ilea'li comes as a crushing blow to the entire family , who hava the heartfelt sympathy of a host of friends in this hour of their affliction.

Omnlin dobhrm I.'iitliiiHliintlr O\rr the Itc- Mitt * of Their Trip. The Omaha Jobbers returned from their excursion last evening. They are well sat isfied with the results of the trip. They had an opportunity yesterday to note the effect of the rain on the spirits of the people of the towns through which they passed , and they say that the down pour made all jubi lant. H Is regarded now as certain that al most all crops In the region where the water fell will be bountiful. The climax In the return trip was the magnificent reception tendered the jobbers by the people of David City. When the train came to a standstill not less than 1,000 people were there to greet them , the busi ness men sending a big delegation to meet the travelers. Scores of carriages were quickly loaded and the guests driven about the town. The streets were tilled with farmers' wagons , and the stores were crowded with customers. In the park the music of a splendid band added to the enjoyment of the visit. To see the hundreds of farmers busily engaged In their purchases , to contemplate the condi tion of the crops , the satisfactory condition of local trade , would cause ono to think that a panic In this splendid region could not occur. Certainly there Is little evidence to Indicate that the merchants of this section of the state have suffered much from the recent disturbances In the financial world. Magnificent rains In the past two or three days have made certain an abundant harvest this fnll. . The Omaha jobbers came homo feeling most enthusiastic over the prospects of a heavy trade this fall , and they are convinced absolutely that a better plan of pushing their trade and advancing the In terests of Omaha and the state cannot be conceived. Three days of hard work , tired out with constant travel , having covered forty-three towns , the business men of Omaha came back thoroughly satisfied that ono of the grandest agricultural empires In the world lies at Omaha's very door , and a more enterprising class of country merchants never existed. The temperature of the water at Court- land beach Is perfect for bathing. WE.ITHKK fOUECAST. Fnlr Wcntlicr nml Viirliiblo Winds for Nc- brnskii Sunday. WASHINGTON , June 1C.
