Alonzo Gunn Dies of Small Pox in North Omaha, A few isolated cases of that terrible scourge, the small pox, continue to show themselves, so that it cannot yet be said that the community is rid of the plague, The latest case is that of Alonzo Gunn, a carpenter, and foreman for Fred Dellone. Mr, Gunn resided on Davenport street, between Twonty- Fifth and Twenty.Sixth strects, with his wife, whom he married but two months days ago Mr. Gunn was taken sick, and a physician called in, but during the last four days of his illness no medical attend- ance was had, It is presumed that the nature of the disease was un- kunown either to the physician or pa- tient, and Dr. Leisenring, the city physician, was not informed of it at all, About 9 o'clock Monday the vic- tim died and Dr. Leisenring, who was notified of the case, sent for Colonel Houck who came down from the pest house and took the body away at mid- night, burying it at 2 o’'clock in the Douglas county cemetery. The grief of the wifo was terrible to behold. She refused to allow the re- mains to be put iu the coftin and had to be carried to another room and forcibly retained there until the hos- pital steward had departed on his er- ago, Six - | rand.

The Passover Festival-How It is Kept. Monday was the beginning of the Passover season of the Jews; it is the fourteenth day of the Jewish month Nisan, The holiday commem- orates the wonderful deliverance of the lsraclites from the cruel bondage of the Egyptian hosts, who had held, according to Josephus 600,000 per- sons ‘it for war in captivity for four hundred years, The deliverance was effected by the affiictions which were heaped upon the oppressors. Scrip- ture says that the holy riverof the land was changed into blood: the clear stream produced frogs innumerable; anon the dust was, changed into noxious insects; then wild beasts in immense masses devoured everything before them:a estilence smote all the cattle exposed in the fields; the bodies of the people were covered with blains and ulcers; hail cut down everything exposed abroad; again locusts devoure¢d the green grass and the young grain, even the leaves of the trees, and whatcver else tha hail had spared, and finally an impenetrable gloom, a total dark- ness, had shrouded the fair land for three days. And yet the hardened king relented not. It was at the dead jhour of mid- night, of the 15th day ot Nisan; the Egyplians rested in the security of their own homes when the last terri. ble visitation produced its awful offects, ‘‘All the first.-born of the land of Kgypt shall die, from the first-born of Pharaoh, that sitteth upon his throne, even unto the first- born of the maid servant that is be- hind the mill, and all the first-boru of beasts.” The king beheld his eldest son expiring with no aid to save him. Even he who was to succeed to the crown was cut off, and the cattle which the Egyptians worshipped per- ished like the grass before the reap- er's hand. The haughty king, amidst the bemoanings and lamenta- tions of his people, recalled the meek Moses, and bid him and his peopl> make their departure, Thus was the yoke of bond lifted, and in c:mmemoration of this memorable deliverance the Pesach or Passover was instituted. The feast obtains its name because the first-born who were of the house of Israel were saved from the edict which decreed that all must die. The blood of a paschal lamb was sprinkled upon the gateposts of the Israelites, and the dread messenger passed over all such. The flight of the Jews was so sud- den, and the order to depart so per- emtory, that the dough which was preparing for bread could not be aked, and the people in their eager- ness to make their exit threw the dough on their backs, and the heat of the sun, as they journeyed on their march for freedom, baked their bread. The Passover season continues one week; the first and last days are ob- served as solemn holidays. The intermediate days are half holidays. This is the only Jewish feast which requires a change of ordinary diet, and 1t is remarkable for that reason. The Jews eat no leavened bread dur- ing the week, nor anything from which bread is made. As a substitute they eat the matzos or 'unleavened bread cake. METEOROLOGICAL. The Monthly Keport from the Omata Signal Office.
