The calm air yestorday and the bright sunshine, made the managers of the water worka think it an excellent oppor- tunity to make the test, which has been twice postponed on account of the wind, which drives the water off in spray snd prevents socurate measurements, At ten o'cluck the majority of the city council, Mayor Boyd, Chief Gulligan and other .,mui.f;. with a nuwber of promi- nent citizens and tax payers, met manag. r Shelt-n at the corner of Fifteenth and Farnham, from which they were | ¢ pared to witness t 6 second test of the w rks, The h we carts were drawn outand connec- tions made with the hydrants on Twelfth, Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Filteenth wtroets at their ivt: re.t on with Famn m.

A crowd ot peo- vle assembled in the streets and watched the sight with interest, until the street oorners in the vicinity became deluged and im] ble, ‘rom the station the hil the force of the reams at fire pressure was m re rent. A line drawn from the upper front oornice of Bo d's opera house to the lower edge of the flag flying nbove Strang’s building, would be ninety feet ubove the street and it was noticeable that the water seldom reached this height a though several tines a spurt would made and the water seut to a height that appeared to be slightly bove on+ hun:red f.et.

Frank Mayo, the well known tragedian, who bas tinie and again delighted his au- audiences in this city, will appear at Boyd'’s Opera House to-night in Virginius. Mr. Mayo's talent is nowhere more app e- clated than in this city, as was proven during his engagoment here last season. He has that peculiar power which wins and holds one from the beginning, There has already been large reserve for the entire series, including three nights and matinee, and a piofitable engagement is promised Mr, Mll;'o in this city. The Deroit Kvening News, speaking Mr. Mayo's performance of *'Virgin- ays:” “Frand Mayo and his splendid company were seen at their t est last even. ing, in ‘Virginius,' It was s magnificent all-roun | performance, ad the only won. der is now that stars like Lawrence B rett, Kdwin Booth ana John McCullough have dared to come here so muny t me- with ‘st cks’ and ‘supers’ to support them, Mr. Mayo is the first lmyedLn to give these grand old plays as they should long #go have been produced—with competent people and accessories. Tuking the rank and fils into consideration, one must ae- knewledge that no tragedian was ever better supported in the history of the local lufe. The performance of ‘Viiginius' List night was almost a revelation.

One man did all this, Luke Kinney, a good looking young fellow, who was proprietor of a raloon on Tenth and Douglas streets, which has since suspenied o ations, Kinney on one oceasion pulled from his_pocket a handful of one hundred dollar Lills and put u{n three of them for the worst 100 <ing v.agabond that ever 1obbed a man, for he was caught jumping off the U, P, tr in, No. 4, near the nail works, ‘and euriously enough sev eral pockets were picked on that very train between Papillion «nd Omaha The fellow got off by the aid of Luke's money -nd a shrewd attorney .
