There was a mighty gathering of the hosts of Ak-Sar-Ben IV at the big Den on North Twentieth street last evening. One hundred and twenty-five candidates knocked at the doors leading to the royal throne and were admitted after they had been tried and tested In strange and un usual ways. It was a big meeting. The rush to get In to rldo on the band wagon Indicates that very few representative Omahans want to bo counted among the barbarians at the triumphal entry ot the king next month. There will bo a special meeting ot the knights on Wednesday evening next to Initiate the members ot the Dupont Gun club , and the last chance to bo numbered among the king's own will bo offered on Monday evening next. H Is expected that between 200 nnd 300 citizens will avail them selves of this opportunity to join the knights. Preparations are being made for the banner Initiation of the year , and the Initiatory proceedings of 1898 will bo wound up In a blazeof glory nnd other things. I'cilillcrn AVho Were Uiifiilthfnl.

GENERAL DISCUSSION ALONG THIS LINE IVluit the Stiitf of Ohio linn Done in Provide for Mure SjNteinatlc Hl - trlliullnii n ( Kiimli Social Svttleinetit Scheme. The topic for consideration nt yester day's session of the Transmlsslsslppl Con ference of Charities anil Correction wag "County and Municipal Charities. " Tut discussion was opened by J. I1. Myers ol Columhus , who gave a short review ol the recent legislation In his state relative to local charity work. Ho said that the work In each county Is put under the super vision of three directors , who make an nual reports to the state board , giving a complete list of the needy In the county nnd telling what provision has been made for their relief. It has not been unusual , ho said , for the state to distribute as high as $600,000 a year In caring for the poor. This largo amount Is the result of the many frauds that have crept Into the management of the funds. Dut under the supervision of the directors al least $200,000 a year has been saved , and the work has been done far more effectively. Another new law provides for children born In the county Infirmaries to remain with the mother one year instead of three as heretofore and then bo taker to the county home. Able bodied men art often given public aid , but In return It U required that they work In some branch ol public employment , such as road making , Each township makes Its report to the county olllclal and if nothing can bo done by the county in caring for all the cases reported the responsibility falls back on the town ship. ship.Following Following Mr. IJyors , several of the dele gates made short talks on various subjects relative to the subject of local charities and along lines suggested by the first speaker , This Informal discussion occupied nearly the remainder of the forenoon , leaving bare ! ) tlmo for the presentation of a paper on "The Social Settlement Movement , " * oy Mrs. Edlll P. Parsons of DCS Molncs , la. -Social Settlement Worlc. Mrs. Parsons discussed the subject of so cial settlements with reference to the worh In largo cities , catling attention to the greal good that has been accomplished by dlrecl contact with the poor. She said that a set tlement must ) never bo established on the boulevard. A frontage on an alley will dc ten times the amount of good. The pool must realize that they have In the settrc- ment a homo to which they are always welcome. It has been found by experience , she said , that those who have been sur rounded by luxury all their lives make the best workers. They lose themselves com pletely and enter the settlement with bill one thought ) and that to do the most for the more unfortunate. A social settlement musl be self-supporting. There must bo no reli ance on state aid. Air such Institution ! should feel that their existence Is for tihe solo purpose of extinguishing themselves by destroying the need for their work. In small cities no settlement Is necessary , Every homo should be one , for the distance from the residence of the millionaire to thc ) hovel of the pauper is but a few blocks , Oimiliu ChnrlticN lU-iiort. Last evening's session closed the confer ence. The confcrenco has been full of In terest nnd Instru6tlon , not only to the members of the conference themselves butte to the general public , of which there has been a liberal attendance at every session , Last evening's session was1 devoted to the hearing of short talks by representatives ol the various charity organizations of this city and to- the consideration of the topic "Treatment of the Feeble Minded. " Mrs. E. B. Perrlno of Omaha presided. In opening the meeting she made a few Intro ductory remarks on the work of the local charity organizations. In regard to the Woman's club of Omaha she said the meet ings which are held weekly have been at tended by an average of GOO each. She con cluded by saying ; The deslro to assist in every way the worthy and needy poor seems 'to bo the pre dominating Impulse of nil the members , The club Is EO situated that It will do work not possible by charity organizations. II will , however , work In co-operation will ] them that the endeavors of both may be co-ordinated. We learn in our meetings tc study causws of distress and to control out Impulses to indiscriminate alms-giving. And yet many of the women feel that they arc not doing their full duty. They feel that there Is so much to be done that when they consider the little that they have been able to accomplish , it seems small Indeed. The work , however , will broaden out : It will become - como moro systematic , and with the con tinuation of Its existence Its power for good will bo felt moro and more. Treatment of Feeble Mlluled. Dr. George Mogrldgo of Glenwood , In. , read n very Interesting paper on "Tho Treatment of the Feeble Minded. " The in terest In the subject was enhanced through the fact that It was along an entirely differ ent line of work than the other members have been engaged InMr. . Mogrldge's paper was In part as follows : A half century ago wo knew practically nothing of the treatment of the feeble minded. The work began In 1848. In that year their cause first received state recogni tion in Massachusetts. Other states followed the example until now nineteen maintain state Institutes for the treatment of Im beciles. There are now In the various in stitutions of the United States 95.G09 fcoble minded and 106,485 Insane patients. The question arises , to what extent should state aid bo extended to this class ? Two- thirds of the number are or will bo subJecU for state provision. And wo llnd that the majority of the states of the union make no provision whatever. It Is admitted that society should ho relieved of this class , When left unrestricted the multiplicity ol this class would become enormous and al the offering are sure to be degenerates And , further , the patient himself has c right which must bo respected. A true Imbecile can never reach the polnl of safe citizenship. The question Is otter asked , "Can ho bo cured ? " The answer Is "No. " Continuing , the speaker referred to the epileptics , saying that no cure has yet been found for the disease and no style has made provision for their care. They are wander ers , social outcasts , leading lives of sort- tude , unfit morally and physically to mingle with their fellow men. All avenues of em ployment are closed against them. The alms house and the lunatic asylums are the only Institutions that win take them In. Dr. E. I ) . Osborn , superintendent of the state Institution for the feeble-minded ol California , concluded the discussion of UK topic. Ho said In part : In our state we intend to care for the epileptics In connection with the feeble minded. This will bo something new. But no man has yet discovered an epileptic whc does not tend to Imbecility. Wo have 1'OC acres of ground , where the Climate * Is match less , the water pure and sparkling , the land rolling and fertile. Wo shall afford employ ment at the Institution for all the epileptic and feeble minded of tbo stato. Cottages will bo put up. They will not bo expensive , but will subserve the comfort and pleasures of the patients. Wo shall adduce a high grade of utility In their training and make them self-supporting. During the perloila of apparent rationality between the parox ysms they will be glad to come to the col ony , where they will be free from the ter rors of the disease while employed.

Two llottiiltnlH mill the County .lull Cnrrfiilly In | > cctc < l ! > > HelcKiitc * . Thirty of the delegates to the Transmls slsslppl Confcrenco of Charities and Correc tion spent yesterday afternoon In visiting the Institutions of the city. Carriages had been furnished by H. W. Yates , U. C. Barton - ton , V. H. Davis , S , A. McWhorter , J. II. Evans and G. E. Marker In addition to those rented for the occasion. The party left the Dellono hotel nt 2 o'clock. The first Institution visited by the dele gates was St. Joseph's hospital. This was given a thorough Inspection by the members fo the conference. The various wards were courteously thrown open nud all the points of Interest In the building were shown to the distinguished guests , who had smiles and comforting words for the sick nnd convales cent. The patients who were ableto sco visitors seemed very happy to greet the kindly and sympathetic charity workers. Some surprise was expressed nt the presence of so many soldiers. It was the general opinion that the government Is placing them In the hospital where they are receiving the best of care Is making a commendable recognition of the bravery of the boys. The delegates Inspected the various rooms , such as the drug room , the anaesthetic room and the new operating room nnd those who have visited many hosplatls declared that St. Jo seph's Is an admirable one both In Its ap pointment nnd Its management. Its cleanli ness anu the evident tenderness of the nurses were especially commented upon. A short stop was made at Hrowncll Hall nnd then the party hurried to the Clarkson Memorial Child's hospital. The party dis tributed Itself among thechildren's wards and brought a Hood of sunshine Into the hearts of the bed-weary sufferers. The children when questioned all declared them selves happy nnd well attended , but all said that they would be glad when they were well enough to play out of doors again. Several fever-stricken soldiers were found hero also , but all were doing nicely and seemed contented and thankful that such excellent provisions had been made for their care and treatment. The visitors found the patients crowded a little more here than at St. Joseph's hospital. Hut the same cleanliness prevailed. It was contemplated at this point to drive out to the county hospital , hut It was de cided that so much tlmo had been spent already that it would not be advantageous to make the visit so hurriedly. Accordingly , the party spent the remainder of the after noon In an Inspection of the Jail. The crowded condition alluded to In Gen eral Brlnkerhoff'a talks before the confer ence was found to exist. It was generally agreed that the management of the Institu tion Is clearly the best that the construction of the building will allow. No care seemed to have been spared In making the lot of the unfortunate prUoner as bearable as the con ditions would allow. The cells and corri dors were well swept and everything was neat and tidy. The criticism made was that so many prisoners are cooped up In the small cells and that they are forced to como Into such close contact with one another. It was the expressed deslro of the visitors that Omaha may soon have a new Jail built according to the most modern theories. In general the impression that our public Institutions made on the visitors who have made similar tours of Inspection In many cities In the union seemed to be a good one and very few criticisms were made. CROWDS ARE COMING ( Continued from First Page. ) seat section of the grounds and commenced to beat a drum that had been placed there for the purpose. After the beating had proceeded for a time , one Indian drew a mouth organ from some part of his attire and tried to blow the reeds out of the In strument. Another Jndlan , who was a member of the musical organization , de voted his efforts to trying to beat tlmo with a stick Into the end of which had been In serted a feather. After the so-called music had been kept up for a time , three Indians came in sight whoso clothing consisted almost wholly of yellow paint and three twine strings. These fellows squatted upon the ground and list ened to the music and moro Indians came dressed In the most fantastic attire. Entering the charmed circle , the Indians formed In a figure that In shape resembled a now moon , with their squaws sitting over behind the men who beat the drums. After looking around for a brief period of time they all sauattcd down on their haunches and listened to the music. Suddenly an Indian wearing a buckskin shirt , a feather In his hair nnd a strip of green calico about his neck , hounded out from the line and dragging a fox skin over the ground , set up a most unearthly howl. Almost In stantly his associates were upon their feet , dancing in fours , twos and singly , chant ing In the most mournful fashion. After the crow dance had been continued for a. couple of hours , the participants con cluded that they had Invoked the Great Father long enough and bad fully paved the way for the ghost dance , ono set of which they put on before evening. This portion of the ghost dance seemed to bo easy enoush and was danced without any manifestations of fatigue or excitement. Whllo the ghost dance was on , around and around the circle the Indians went , squaws and men elbowing each other and getting as close as possible. There Is no dance to the motion and nothing to Indi cate time or an effort to keep time to the dismal humming and chanting. For ten minutes the dance or ceremony continued and then It stopped as suddenly aa It com menced and the Indians hurried away to tholr tepees. The same Indians , or at least a largo portion of those who were in the crow dance , t ore out for the purpose of ascertain ing what message the crow had brought from the Great Father. Without any music and dressed In their street attire the In dians formed In a circle around ono of the electric light poles and with one of their number In the center waving a wand , commenced to chant a doleful wall , Invok ing the crow to tell them about their friends and relatives who had gone before and who are now riding up and down the happy huntIng - Ing ground , eating buffalo tongues and liv ing on the fat of the land. The wall grew louder and louder and the Indian In the center of the ring , who was acting as master of ceremonies , waved his wand In a most furious manner. This con tinued for a time and then all of the In dians joined bunds and circled to the left , all the time Invoking that crow to come down upon earth and through some Indian tell Its tale. The chanting and the alleged singing was In the Wichita. All of the Indians having become tired , tlmo was called on the first waltz , after which the men and women dropped to the ground and wiped the perspiration on their blankets. The men lighted their ever-pres ent cigarettes and the women chattered like a Hock of magpies. After resting the stipulated tlmo they ucro up and at It again , trying the chants lu the Cheyenne language , At last , and when everybody was ready to quit and go home , an old Cboyenno equaw felt that she had the spirit and leav ing the circle stepped out Into the ring , chanting an anthem that told cf a crow that had been far away nnd was ready to tell the Indiana of their people who had died. Her movements were similar to the dancing girls lu some ot the concessions and there were people who were mean enough to declare- that nho was a muscle- dancer In disguise , but she was not. The singing became faster and the gyrations of the wo man grow faster nud moro furious , but the spirits were not Inclined to recognize her ns the authorized agent through which they would communicate. The woman kept up her antics for n time , but not onuu did shu go Into a lit , such as required to make the ghost dancea howling success , nnd later In the night the dance was pulled off , the business to bo continued at some fu ture date. l-'lll'IT 3II3X OX IHIHSS rAUAHU AGAIN Horticultural IlullilliiK'n Tnlilri l > ri > fim < > d with l''roxlii'Nt of Uiblliltn. The finishing touches were put on the Ne braska fruit exhibit In the Horticulture building and when the doors of the structure opened yesterday morning It was as sleek nnd clean as though all ot the fruit had Just been brought In from the orchards. The ex hibit had a varied experience last week. One entire table was devoted to showing peaches , another to pears , a third to npplca and still another to grapes , plums and mixed fruits , together with novelties , such as pawpaws , chestnuts , figs and other fruits that are not natives , but are grown here almost aa well as In the localities where- they originate. To Jill the tables with peaches required sevetity- flvo baskets. Almost ns many pears were used and double this quantity of apples. Al though the men In charge ot the exhibit have never figured the quantity closely , they esti mate 'that It takes sixty bushels of fruit to renew the tables. Whllo the Douglas county exhibit Is Inde pendent of that made by the state , It Is close by and Is equally as good , whllo In some re spects It la better. The county Is showing endless varieties of grapes and plums , while the npplo exhibit Is conceded to bo one of the best In the building. Superintendent Walker , who Is In charge , says that In the past ho has not pushed the peach exhibit , but that from now on ho will show ns many kinds and as fine- poaches as any locality. Secretary Bryant of the Illinois State Horticultural ticultural society came In from the east yes terday and will remain several days at the exposition assisting Acting Superintendent Barnett. With him Uo brought a great col lection of novelties that will bo used lu dec orating the columns nnd tables In the Illi nois space. Ho brought magnolia buds and seed cones , coffee beans , chestnut burrs , pawpaws , cedar cones , cucumber trees and scores of bushes and vines. The Jonathan apples that are shown In the Illinois exhibit are ono ot the striking features. They are streaked In the most delicate manner nud run as even as though they were all cast In the same mold. The fruit exhibit from Garfleld county , Col orado , has received a largo supply of peaches , pears , apples and crab apples dur ing the last two days and Superintendent Fravent Bays that now that he haa got the fruit coming It will not stop until the close of the exposition. The growers , ho says , are taking an. active Interest In the exposition and have agreed to keep the tables replen ished with fresh fruit. Superintendent Lane , who looks after the Otero county and the Rocky Ford , Is booming his exhibit by put ting on fresh fruit each day. . The rendition of the Spanish-American piece drew a largo crowd to the Grand Plaza last night. The music was furnished bytho Mexican band nnd the Exposition chorus and was alone the same lines as the fantnslo rendered some weeks ago. The bombardment , fireworks , red lights nnd a series of stereoptlcon views showed the battleship Maineas It ap peared before sailing from Now York har bor. Then It was seen lying lu the Ha vana harbor , followed by the explosion. There were the funeral ceremonies attend ing the burial of the sailors , a number of American generals , President McKlnley and several admirals , together with Hobson. Another Sluuii Ilnttlc. Another sham battle will bo foucht be tween the Indians this afternoon. It will bo called promptly at 5 o'clock and Cap tain Mercer promises that there shall bo no delay. Llko the former one , the Sioux nnd the northern plains tribes will bo pitted against the Blackfeot and the Indians from the south. There will be three attacks. The Sioux will attack the other Indians , bo defeated and will renew the fight , driving their enemlcfl before them. After this the Blackfeot vlll bo reinforced and will go into the fight , whipping the Sioux , cap turing a number of prisoners nnd killing more. Prom-hern SPO tinShow. . A special train over the Missouri Pacific arrived In the city at 2:30 : o'clock yester day afternoon , bringing 150 representative negro preachers from all parts of the United States to finish the business of the na tional Baptist convention , which has been In session for the last ten days at Kan sas City , and In order to see the exposition they came to the city for the purpose of closing the convention. The party visited points of Interest. In the city nnd the ex position nnd left at 11:30 : last night for Kansas City. Wlint the I.umlHTiiicii niil , The Transmlsslsslppl edition of the North western Lumberman devotes three full pages to a narration of the experiences of the lumbermen nt the exposition. It refers In terms of enthusiastic approval to the exposition and the entertainment that was afforded and gives a detailed account of the various celebrations that marked the day. Among the Illustrations are excellent half tone cuts of Secretary John A. Wnkeflcld. Frank Colpetzer and J. S. White of this city. Colornilo Make a MlNtnke. Editor Hill of the Denver Republican was In the city yesterday and spent most of his time at the exposition. He admitted that Colorado made a mistake in not having a big exhibit in ofl of the departments. Ho ' . said that ho felt convinced that the exposi tion will bo a financial success. Speaking of the exposition ho said : "It is a wonderful exhibit ) , taken as a whole. Many of the features are much superior to the World's Fair. " Fruit from Xcw Mexico. Captain Leeson , the commissioner from New Mexico , who went home a few days ago for the purpose of collecting a fruit exhibit , has been heard from. Yesterday ten barrels of coaches , pears , apples , grapes and nlums wore received from him and placed on exhibition In the New Mexico ice space In the Agricultural building. The ftult Is very fine. The captain will reach Omaha some tlmo this week with a carload of Mission grapes. Douulnx CountWool. . Douglas county has installed Its wool ex hibit In the Agricultural building In con nection with the agricultural exhibit. The exhibit Is a very largo one , some twenty different grades and varieties of wool being shown. The wool Is In a neat glass case , divided Into apartments and labeled with the nnmo of the owner of the animal from which ' 'it came. llif'M Kxcnrxloii Kiiilomccl.
