Result: They A TATAL EXPLOSIO Two Young Women Terrib Burned by Kerosene. Shortly before 6 o'clock last even- ing an accident occurred on the corner of Thirteenth and Chicago streets, which resulted in probably fatal inju- rics to Mary Buckley, daughter of the prprietor of the Mechanics’ House, and less s-rious ones to her sister, Julia Buckley. It sppears that the two young wo men went into the kitchen to light a fire preparatory to getting supper raady. Mary was engaged in building the fire, and placed some wood 1n the stove, which she tried to make * m Bammable by pouricg ooy ou from a Latt gallon can nearly full % the fuid. The noon fire had not yet entirely died out, and the few em bers left burning in the stove ignited the stream of oil, and flwhing back the quicker than htirg, exploded and sent the blaz- ing conteuts over the person of the uulucky woman and over floor, ceilivg and stove. Greatly frightened and with clothes aflame she rushed through the front hall and ou into the yard where some one tried to rear her clothes c§rand an' ther threw a comfort a-ound her t. stfle her burning spparel. Still a thi? dashed water over her. At 1 @gly. hefirewas reduced, but not u S P clothes had burned nearly off, w€quilt had barned up entirely, and terrible burns had been received on limbs, hande, arms, back and breast, in fact almost over the entire can Her sister Julia, who was in the kitchen a the same time was burn.d in the face and right hand, but her in- jurie« are com paratively elight. Dr. Peabody was at once summoned and aleo Dr. Coffuano, snd all that could be was done for the suffering woman, whise agony was terrible to behold.

We asked Muyor Chace Saturdsy about his trip to Oakland Fr- day and what he thought of the route of the Omrha & Northern Nebraska railroad to ‘hat point. He said that the whole route was : very interesting and immense ocrops of grain were visible on every side; that wheat wus being harvested and of most excellent berry, and good | crop.

Those who witnessed the imposing ceremonics with which the remama of Walter Lowry were yesterday honored by his comrades of the fire de:art ment, were doubiless carried back in thought to the recnes of two yenrs ago, which sucoseded the calamity o the Grand Central. S arere has not been , wince that time, a funcral which produced the sume feelings of univer- sal sympathy until the funeral of the driver who wes dashcd from his cart and kille1 while hurrying to fight the fire fiend. For an hour _previous to the time set for the services ut Creighton Hall, where the body lay in state from 8 o'clock yesterday morning, the people were massinghon the sidewalks fora block on either side, while the ball itaelf waw packed to its utmost stand- ing capec'ty. .

Chief Engineer and seversl menbors of the Council Bluffs de- purtwent were over, but arrived too Iateto participate in the ¢eremonice. The invitation to their department unfcrtunately did not reach them un- til 11 o'clock to day, or a goodly nuwm- ber would have come over. Ttisseldom that such a crowd is seen in our city as that which yeater- duy lined the sidewalks and clustered beneath sheds and chade trees along the live of march or surged through the depot like a huwan sen. It whowed the appreciation in which our oitizens hold the firemen. As the result of Mr. Lowrey's thoughtfulness and thrift he had placed notes and warrants to the smount of $1200 for keeping with ban« besides his farm at Fairbury. The property will doubtless go to his mother and sister. Those who know Walter Lowry best bear witness to the excelleuce of his characrer. He was very fond of children, who paturally took to_him, sud he wou'd, when at loisure, sit and smuse them by the hour. Joe Hen- on was ono of these, aud a little acn of Charles 8.

A Chicago Firm Oloses an Oma~ ha Jewel-r's doors. Comslderable of a sensation wss cauwd Sa urda: by the ana uncement that the jeweley firm of Whijple & McMidlin had been closed up, and vur reporter, in order to get the irog stete of affawrs, called upon Mr. W. E McMilln, who, in the sbsence of M . Why; ple, had charge of the estab- lisament. F om him we learned that the house of Giles & Bros., wholesale a'd retail jewellvrs, of Chicago, had proour.d aa order of sttachment thrugh H. D. Esab-ook. their attirney, and that at 9 volock Friday the sher- ok posceasion of the stock by virtue of the writ. The affidavit was filed with the clerk of the distriot court, and slleg-s, we understand, an intention on the part of the firm to dispose of their proverty and defraud their creditars. The fact is said to be that the debt is only $750, and is a balance on account with the firm. This amount Mr. Whipple had gone to Chicago to settle, and the action of the creditors was a surprise to M. McM:llan. While the latter is in- cluded by pame in the writ, he states posttively thathe was not a member of the firm, and that while & partuership had been agreed upon for o future time, it was not to be con- summated until the liabilities of the firm of Whiople & Co. were settled. It'is claimed that the indebtedness of the old house does not exceed $1,100 in addition to the balance due Giles, and that the stock will invoice from $3,600 to $4,000. Also, that there is due the firm in town $1,200 to $1,800, on good parties. Mr. McMillan objects to being treated in this manner decidedly, on the ground that he is only helding a salariod position, and does mot wish to be closed up befure he opens out in businers. He expeots Mr. Whipple home soon, when he thinks things will be satisfactorily settled. ¥.M.C. A Library.

Omaha and Other Western Cities to be Warked Up, “No Rest Till the People Gét Their Own, A meeting was held Friday night at the Creighton House by a committee consisting of Michael Donovan, Hon. C. V. Gallagher, John Groves, Thos. Tallon, M. J. MsMahen, Jas. Boilo, Richard O'Keiff, Pat Ford, and Thos. Kennedy, to take action upon a recent letter and proposition received from Michael Davitt, the famous Irish na- tionalist. Me. Davitt has resolved upun meking an_ organization tour in the western states, including Oslifor- nia* before retarning to Ireland and has signified his futention to stop over in Omaha en route, if he can be of any A Bellevue Man Shuffles off His Mortal Coil. Being Weary of the World's Tribulations. o It seoms that the mania for suicide '| is not confined to Omaha slone but has extended to the suburbs and will doubtless run its course throughont the state like any other epedemic. The latest case of voluntary death is that reported from Bellovus. fitom what we can gather of the facts it appears that a German who had contracted s thirst for ardent spirits and grew discouraged, on Thursday night took a dose of poison and died from it's effect. It is said by some that domestic difficulty was at the bottom of the rash deed, but what- ever may have been the cause it ap- pears that the act was committed when under the influence of liquor. The man lesves a wife and six chil- dren. Some of the friends came up sorviceto the cause which he repre- sents. Tt was decided by the commit- tee to write him that he would be wel- come here and that s reception would be given in his honor during his visit to this city. Mr. Davitt came over with Parnell and Dillon and s working in the intereats of the Land Lesgue,”ot which he is one of the originators and of which Parnell is the present head. The Land League movement, to use Mr. Davitt's own words, is but a tempoary one, which has been called info existence to save Ireland, Quring an alarming crisls, from the horrors of '47 and 48, aud to put an end to periodic famine and perpetual poverty by securing the ownership and unrestricted cultivation of the sofl for the people. It was not intended and does not purpose to be placed in opuo- ftion to those movements at achieving elther nation ence on the one hand and what is known as Home Rale on the other, its object being the advancement of the interests of the people at home and the lifting of the fatherland from the mire of socisl serfdom. An appeal is made to non-politiesl socicties and to all who sympathize with the movement to support the work and show that it is a truth and Dot a boast that weither distance nor time can change the devotion of the Lish heart to the land of its birth. On the'19th of May last the Navioral Land and Todustrial League of Amrrioa was founded. Owing to various causes, chiefly the short space of time which has elapsed since its foundation, the work sctually accom- plirhed has been small and it is for the organization of this branch of the League thst Mr, Davitt's trip west 1n made. It's wark will be the collection of the fund for the aid of the Land League in its work of protecting lives, dstending prisoners atrested for re sistance te process serving, sustain their families, clothe snd educate their children, seed their land, etc. Mr. Davitt will no doubt be en- thusiostically received in Omahs where the strong sy mpathy with the caune has already been expressed in s practical way.

The reporta wore placed on fle, aud the board proceeded to vote, On the fourth ballot Mr, Mapel was elected, recciving 7 out of the 11 votes. A motion was made o make the election unanimous, to which an ob- jection was rained. On motion of Mr. Long the board proceeded to the election of principals of the various schools, Principals were chosen as follows: Hascall School—Miss Redfield (re- elected.)

Hartmsn School—Mrs. Champlin (re-elacted ) West School—Miss Harney (re- elected,) South Scnool—Miss Stannard (re- elected ) Eaet School—Miss Anna Foos (re- elected ) North School—Prof. Bruner (re- elected. A motion was made to elect 8 prin cipal of +he Central sehool,who should be the teacher of the eichth grade. This was discussed at some length. It was moved that the office of principal of the Central school be created with a salary of 81300, with the understanding ‘that that official ¢hill be the teacher of the eighth grade. It was moved that the principal of the Central school shall rank under the principal of the High school. It was moved that the further con- siderati.n of the principal of the Cen- tral sch-ol be postponed uatil the next regular meeting. This motion waa carried after consderable discus- sion. _ Mr. Ma ab, in sposking on this mo- tion, said that the bosrd kept incress- iug slaries instead of reducing.
