Among the Losses Are Ono Thousand Sheep
nml I.'iinlis.
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.

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 ,

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.

Nebraska , which will bo held in this city
the coming week , beginning next Wednes

about COO members of the order here at that
time. There arc now 224 lodges In the

The superllclnl render , dwelling nt lengtn

How like to these the Judgments of man

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

"Ilnrlty of human charity , "

In teaching of the Instability of human
things.

Peace be to his soul , who , In going forth ,

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 !

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

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.

CAME HOME TICKLED.
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.
