In memory of a gentle young woman whofio life was ns beautiful as a day In June , and who not only ornamented society by her presence , but the home with lender grace , a flower mission Is to be started In Omaha , Mrs. George W. Itoagland being active In Its Inauguration. La t Thursday Mrs. Hongland Invited sev eral ladles 10 mrel v.llh her , and In re sponse lo Invitations Mrs. W. II. Wyman , Miss Kn'ght , Miss Isaacs nnd Mrs. Peattle assembled at Mrs. Hoaglnnd's residence lo talk over one of Iho Mvtctevt charities under the sun. It wax decided lo start very modestly , but ns contributions grow In volume , to extend the mlcalon , thai all Iho hospitals In Iho city may be visited once a vrceK. The flower mission Is not a new Idea by any means , for many of the older cities have these cliarltlei. that bring happiness and pcaro to thousands of heartsick and hodyslck people the world over. But It Is the first attempt of a ilowcr mission In the west and should receive the enthusiastic support of those who have more flowers than they know what to do with In Ihe dally round. And what In a flower mission ? It Is to take flowers to the hospitals without re gard to denomination , lo brlghfcn Ihe wards , and very often with the little folks who ore confined to sick beds to present them with a rose , or dome other of these producls of nalure , as n little token thai oul In the world they are not forgotlcn In Ihe hurly burly of life The sick need something more than medical skill and nursing ; the poor something more than food aid clothes nnd fuel ; Ihey need the personal sympathy which quickens the heart whllo It minis ters to and comforts the body. And It Is to the.se tenderer qualities that the Ilowcr mission designs to contribute something that will make Thursdays a flower day In the lives of these who are shut out from the world. Mr . Hoiglnnd Invlles lliose who have flowera lo spare lo send them to the south entrance of her home at Sixteenth and How ard streels on Thursday morning nexl be fore noon , when Hie flrsl vlsll will bo In augurated to the different hospitals. And the work of distribution after the flowers have been nrrnnged will be undertnkpn by Iho young ladles of Iho city , whose bright , protly faces will bring quite as much sun shine Inlo Iho sick wards as Ihe flowers. Jnmen Whllcomb Rlloy tells of the good flowcrn have done In their silent way In that dainty pocru of his called "Them Flow ers , " und It somehow fits the flower mission as If written around that tcnderest ot char ities. It runs In this wise : "Take a feller 'nt's sick nnd laid up on the Nncir , All shakey , and ga'nted nnd pore ° "OCKed ° Ut he Can > t handle K -If o V.lth.n sllfr " ( 'Per Up any more : Shel him up all alone In Ihe gloom of a room As dark ns Ihe tomb , nnd an grim , Ana then take and send him some roses In bloom , And you can have fun out o' him !

" IClljoycd Thnlr Mula \ Mnr on Shoro. Two of Omaha's tourists have returned to the clly , and. whllo Ihoy are not In a happy frame of mind , Ihey are kepi busy receiving Iho congratulallons ot their friends upon their successful Journey nnd safe return. Something like a year ago Captain Crow- der and Lieutenant Quay of the departmenl headquarters of Ihe Army ot Ihe Plallo , de cided that this summer they would sail lo Europe and pul In Ihree monlhs doing Ihe continent. Carrying out the lines of this decision , the two gentlemen secured the leave of absence , transporlallpn and Iholr Bleamer trunks , and Iwo weeks ago bade ndlcu lo Ihelr associates at Fort Omaha and started on the -voyage. They wcro goingIn good slylo and prepared lo do Kuropo lo Iho queen's taste , having everything needed to make a voyage on the ocejii a holiday , not even forgetllng lo take along the medi cine chesl , which contained the remedy for mal do mer. For a tlmo everything wenl well. They stopped off for a few days In Chicago , visiting old nrmy nnd college chums , after which Ihey went lo Washing ton , resting there for a brief period Tlmo did not hang heavy upon their hands , and almost before they were aware of the fact , their steamer was ready to sail. When they received this Information they sped away to Now York nnd hastened down to the wharf , prepared lo take up their temporary resi dence In their respective state rooms. They had heard of the strike and the labor troubles , but these matters made but lltlle Impression upon Ihe. minds of Iho Iwo eoldlers , who saw only n pleas ml summer before them. Their luggage had passed the eye of the custom house officer nnd they were following closely In Iho wake of Ihe Iiugo trunks nnd valises , when a slrnppcd nnd butloned olllcer stepped up to them and asked : "Havo I the pleasure of addressing Captain Crowder and Lieutenant Quay of that portion of the United States army stationed at Omaha ? " In n most agreeable manner the two ofil- cors Informed the New York man that ho had that pleasure , providing ho considered It such. With this the man of Now York pulled from his pocket a couple of yellow envelopes , with "Western Union Telegraph Company" printed across each , and handed them over to Iho two travelers , who at once broke the two seals. U did not take long to read the contents of the missives Inside They were concise and right to the point. elating that owing to slrlke Ircubles Iho two olllcors were Instructed to nt once re turn to lliclr command and report for duly. Slowly and sadly the two olllcers went out to find a porter , who was Induced to take Ihe luggage oft Iho ship and pllo U up on the whnrf. This having been done , all of the trunks , bags anil hand satchels were carted to an tip-town hotel , and the next morning , after uttering a few words thai would nol bo countenanced In select society , the two gentlemen started on their return to this city. Yesterday the two officers stated that If the war did not break out again In the course of a couple of weeks they would make another start , being determined to see llu- rope before tlio coming of another winter.

BEAUTIEJjOP OLD CALHOON A Nearby Bummer Rowrt Pouesjlng Mnu'l- Ypft'AUractlons. > i e _ _ _ _ _ ' " MANY POINTS'"OF HISTORIC INTEREST Aroini'd from Your * of l. tlmrfjr , the Blnlil Old Town TXkMt'on Now J.lf - < Jllmp o of ZMittft'o-i'riici'Country Jlump * " "Mil Abounds. FORT CALIIOUN , Neb. , July 11. ( Corre spondence of The Dec. ) It Is pleasing to know , In UIPSO days of summer resorts and watering places , that Omaha Is In line with the rest of the world , and can point teat at least one spot not fur from her borders where her fatigued aud overheated Inhabi tants can find surcease from their city tor- rows , cool air for their fevered brows and relief from that "tired feeling" so general at this time of the year. I refer to the little village of Tort Calhoun , situated some thirty minutes ride from Omaha on the St. Paul road , the homo of the governor of tlio state and destined soon to become a popular summering place for many of those who love to linger amid nature's fairest turroundlngs. As a resort Calhoun Is jet In Its Infancy , but In other respects It bears the stamp of maturity In unmistakable terms upon Its countenance. Time has set his seal upon Itj houses , Its trees , Its grass grown streets and Its surroundings generally. The town has long had a name and has ap peared upon the maps as In existence , but until recently has shown noIsll > lc signs of life. Tor thirty odd jears Calhoun has slept a sleep which for length , breadth , depth and profundity can be compared only with death. It Is well , too , that its awak ening from the lethargic condition In which It has lain so long should not be too sud den , or its transition from its state of dreamy ( .omnolenco Into one of activity should not be too violent or too rude. "Dead as a door nail" Is an expression that for ages has represented the cilmax of In activity , but a door nail would be a fla h of lightning in comparison with this place as far as general animation Is concetned A man walking along the street makes a sensation , a team and wagon in motion upon the road constitutes an event , and the semi-occasional arrival of a train at the station causes a paroxysm of excitement in the inlndi of the native Inhabitants of the place , requiring hours to subdue. OP HISTORIC INTEREST. Fort Calhoun , too , Is no less replete with historic Interest than are her environments Invested with a picturesque and natural beauty. At this spot. In 1S04 , the Lewis and Clark expedition landed and made a treaty with the Otoo Indians , giving to the place where the conference was held the name of "Council muffs , " which in some manner wo ? afterwards transferred to the city that now bears that name. In 1810 tiie government established a fort upon this site for the purpose of holding In check the Indians of the' northwest and to also prevent the Incursions of British trappers and traders , who. after the war of 1812 , and In violation of the provisions of the treaty of Ghentwere'Invading ' the headwaters of the Missouri in search of game. This fort , which was laid'out by Major Long and his engineers , was Called "Fort Atkinson , " in honor of General Henry Atkinson of the United States army ; and was continued at this place until1 iJUly 1 , 1827 , when the post was abandoned. anda the troops removed to Jefferson barratks , St. Louis. In 1S38 It became known as Fort Calhoun. To this day relics In the shape of copper buttons , old coins , medals , etc. , arc being almost dally found in the excavations which mark the site where stood thd houses comprising the old fort , and whose foundations aio not yet entirely gone , t The post was built upon a prcclpltou * bluttJwhich now forms the eastern boundary of the town , and below which In these days the river , now nearly a mlle away , ran directly by. This bluff. In early days , the Indians titlllrcd for the purpose of killing buffalo , whole herds of which they ilrst stampeded and then drove over the dlz y heights , thus easily obtaining game which otherwise could not have been secured without considerable effort. The bones of thousands of these slaughtered animals for many jcars lay bleaching In the sun , and today are not entirely gone. TUG CHARM OF NATURE. A lover of nature cannot help but bo en chanted with the surroundings of this place. The many beautiful features of landscape and of wood that arc spread so lavishly about would delight the eye of an artist , charm the soul of a poet and fill the mind of a ko dak possessor with despair. Everything In the line of vegetation seems for many years to have run wild and to have grown un checked and untrammeled by the hand of man. Trees , vines , shrubs , grass , flowers and weeds are tangled together In an Inextricable - extricable whole , all wreathed with time's richest loveliness and forming an endless and enchanting series of leafy labyrinths of grassy glades and verdurous valleys. There are shady grottoes that would delight the heart of the Omaha " " "picnic ( lend , for in their cool depths , melodious with the songs of birds , ho can linger at his will , "forget ting all the world and by the world forgot. " AS A SUMMER RESORT. Mr. Will Mlllard , who for several jears past has maintained a flno stock farm Immedi ately south of the town , \-as the pioneer who Inaugurated the city movement In this di rection , and with his family Is making his home hero during the summer. Mr. Ed Peck's place , Immediately adjoining , occu pies an elevated site of considerable extent , commanding a magnlllccnt view of the Mis souri valloy. Ills residence , surrounded by lawn and orchard , makes an Ideal country home , In which for the season Ills family Is enjoying all the pleasures of rural life.

The hills that encompass Calhoun upon the west and south In dignity nnd gran deur approach joung mountains , rising to a height that commands a view of superb beauty. For twenty miles up and down the river the Missouri valley lies spread before you like a scroll , presenting one of the grandest panoramic displays ever unrolluil by nature's hand. 'TIs an Ideal landscape scene , showing fields of grain of varying lines of green , with groves of trees dotting the valley here nnd there , vast areas of wav ing corn of deepest emerald hue , sweeping pastures and sloping hills , and like a llvcr ribbon running through It all the river , dancing In the sunshine on its way to the far off sea From one of tin1 highest of these elevations 1 recently aw n Minsel , which was as grand as It wa < wlerdly beau tiful.

These the sun In Its down ward course transformed into a cm lain of blood red color , through which , at Inter vals , little streaks of angry zlg-rag lightning ran. As the sun sank below the horizon the clouds Immediately above It broke and assumed a fiery , lurid jellow hue , as If the llames of eternity were raging down below. Then came a reddish glow , then gray , which faded Into black nnd left "the world to darkness and to me. " 1JIRD C. WAKELEY. o Plenty of new boats nt Courtland. FILLING TIP NEBRASKA.

Neb. , July 10.-Correspond ( , ( tico of The Bee. ) On thlt > spot I mndn my first entry Into the territory of Ncbinska thirty-sev'en years ago. What n different looking place It was then ! Two old log tradlnc posts , n half built "tnvcin" and a hut or two comprised the town. Not n bush or shrub was to be scon whcic now the trees falily hklo the houses. The town has a lemntknbtc history , In that It Is on the forty-second parallel of latitude on the most direct line between Chicago and the South I'asn of the Rocky mountains , which at that time , IS" , \\iir. supposed to be the only feasible route over the gruat divide Consequently quently Decatur had the tlrst railroad ( on paper ) In the state ; Ill-fact , the Ilrst actual survey of a railroad HUB In the territory was made from Decatur west , In September , 1S3S , nnd called the "Decntur and South I'nss Air Line railroad. " Alas , In the changing events of time no railroad was ever built , and that little town today remains almost the only one of the older towns In Nebraska that has ni'ver hoard the whistle of the lion horse. Men have died of waiting , and children have been born am ! their little craveyard where I helped lay the ilrst body is almost filled , and \et no "smokc-v\ngon" Is In sight or hearing Thn town Is on the south border of the Omaha Indian reservation , and In 1i.V7 and 1S5S these Indians received $10,000 In gold us an annual payment of Interest on lliclr lands , and a mtrry tlmo was "payment dny" and for clajs after. Hero Saipy nnd Lumbar nnd old man Chase had permanent traders' stores , and Frank Oulttnr of Council BluITs , and "old Martin" and Inlf a dos-cn temporary ary tradcis from below uod to come nnd camp during "pavment time , " and have a rousing jollification uftenvaards The ex penditure of this money and the vicinity of the Indians made the town n good mer cantile point for many years before farms were opened , or there was much white man's trade , and to this day the Indian trade forms a large part of the business of Us merchants. It seems odd to see red Indians on horseback and In the street * , and to hear the low , cutteral tones and pprutlar laugh of these people , as n dally occurrence so near to a great civilized c'i ' > Only a few horns' ride from Omaha nnd you arc among Indians and on Indian land Badly Americanized , though , and veiy different fiom the Indian I knew In 1837. Close by Uecnlur lives Henry Fontcnelle , the last son of the Frenchman , Luclen Fon- tenellle ( by an Indian wife ) , nnd who was almost the first founder of the trading post at Bellrvue many ycais ago , about 182.1. Logan Fontcnelle , an older brother , was the last generally /recognled chief of the Omnhas. He was killed by the Sioux In 1S53 , and lies burled mar Bellcvuc , just above the present village. With Henry , an old friend , for ray compan ion and guide , we drove to the old Omaha agency and mission house. It was a fortu nate time for our trip , as nearly half the tribe were gathered there to correct the cen sus , prior to a small "payment" for the rent of some hay landb over on the Logan. Captain Beck , the United States agent , - ns not there , but his clerk , Tom Sloane ( part Indian ) , and Interpreter , John Tilcher , were. It was a memory-awakening nnd odd scene to me , now that one scarcely sees an Indian In blanket and moccasin Squatted on the grabs In groups , their bright red blankets lending a glow to the dark background of green , the transition from Farnam street nnd railroad strikes was sudden. Here sat the council of twelve , still keeping up the old habit , and smoking the long pipes It Is their duty to inform the agent from time to time of the wibhes of the tribe , und coun sel for its Tvelfnre. Foimerly they were the hereditary chiefs of the tribe who were im plicitly obeved , but latterly they are simply elected from time to time , and as white man's ballot has crept in they are sometimes pretty poor Indians , and their advice is not law now by any means When an Indian dies It Is reported to the council , or agent , and lie Is crossed off. when one Is born "It" Is marked up and classified for pay. I passed ono hou-e where a little pappooso was born the night before , nnd the happy father was already on horse back to report the new arrival , and see that It was on the pay roll In due order. U Is so much n head , you know , and no Indian Is too young to count before pay day. Many of the tribe came In wagons , a ivhole family in the lumber wagon , but others have buggies and carriages. Once nothing but ponies would be seen , nnd there are a "right smart" of ponies around yet I found a few older Indians who remembered me and whom I remembered , White Horse , Fire Chief and Jim Dick among the them. They lit n long , red pipe and passed it to Henry , who gravely blew a whiff or two through his IIOSB and pabsed It back. Most of these Indians are die-bed in white man's fashion , but thcro aie enough of the old "blanket Indians" left to lend color and variety to the picture. There Is a large and handsome Indubtrlal school building here , and from ninety-six tonne nno hundred pupils attend In winter. Like whites now , in summer some are taken out to farm The old "agencv" building of Dr. Gralf's nnd Governor Furnas' dajs looks dilapidated , but Is undergoing repair- The Indian's Rights association of Philadelphia has leased It for five jears to put borne sort of school In. The old barns and cnt- tlo pens nro all torn down. The mission house farther cast Is to be turned over to the Omahas In the bprlng , and a new ono built out on the prairie near the Logan. Houses nro scattered all over the reservation In stead of skin lodges and tepees , in villages , and plowed fields are numerous , all worked by the Indians. Clo-e to Decatur much land Is leased by whites and Improved ; also over near Ljons , Bancroft nnd I'cndcr , but In the heart of the reserve the Indians work their own lands those who will work at nil Henry Foiitenello Is n very Intelligent mnn. thoroughly posted on Omaha history , nnd very fair and unprejudiced in speaking of their affnlrs. It Is ea.y to see , though , that ho nnd the present ngent have not got along vvtll , nor does Hfnry entertain nn ex alted liklnR for Mr. Farley , Mr Tibbies or the lessees of the grazing lands on the west ern side of the reserve. To use Henry's words , " \Ve are In a transi tion state , wo are neither Indians nor white men , nnd BuHer from the evils nnd fullles ot both" He thinks , ns others have expressed It , that little can bo done with the ' blanket Indians" these who btlck to HIP blanket and brtcehrloth nnrt o old etmtrtnu nnA tradi.
