TRINITY CATHEDMAL, The Christmas tree entertainmont at Trinity cathedral last evening was a very plensant occasion. It was given for the benefit of the children of the Industrial school and the Sunday school. Despite the severe cold weather of the evening, the cathedral was filled with little peo- ple. The room was handsomely decor- ated, Three or four trees were loaded with gifts for the children. In addition to the (Christmas distrib; tion there was an award of prizes to the Industrial school children for attend- anco and scholarship. Books were given as prizes. Fourteon children received prizes, as follows: Firast, Amy Barker; second, Sadie Hamilton; third, Jennie Yates, William Loomis, Minnie Hen- nesey, Carrie Gardner; fourth, Harry The Weather.

TRINITY CATHEDRAL Appropriate Christmas services were held in Trinity Cathedral Tuesday fore- noon and evening. The music prepared for the occasion was most excellent. The church was beautifully trimmed and dec- orated for the ocoasion. THE SOUTH M. B, CHURCH The Sunday school of the South Omaha M E. church, gave their entertainment at their church, corner of Tenth and Pioroe street, last night. The Christmas tree was a large one, and was fairly londed down with presents for the little ones. Gen. O, 0. Howard delivered a_very fine address to the little ones, which was anxiously listened to. Mr. G. W. Tib- bals had charge of the singing, which was good. The little ones enjoyed themselves hugely. AT THE BAPTIST CHURCH, The Christmas festival for the Sunday school of the Baptist church. was held last evening and was a thoroughly enjoy- able affair. The entertainment consisted of recitations, dialogues, solos, duets and choruses by the children, and these were well selected and well rendered. The room was handsomely decorated with flags, the most_attractive feature being, of course, the Christmas tree, well laden with handsome presents for the children. The appearance of Santa Claus, who dis- tributed the presents, assisted by six lit- tlo fairies, was the closing and most at- tractive feature of tho evening. The house was packed with people, many being obliged to stand the entire evening. FIRST M. ¥, CHURCH. At the First M. E. church a large crowd of children and grown people gath- BURIED ALIVE.

A Sad and Solemn Ohristmas Journey from This Life into t Unknow: r Great Future, Yesterday afternoon as three workmen wore engaged in excavating under Dr. Peabody’s house, corner Kourteenth and Jones street, the wall of dirt gave way, burying one of the men, Charles Forrest by name. The bank was about eleven feet high, and the men had dug under it for a dis- tance of eighteen inches, when it caved in upon them. The falling dirt caught Forrest upon the legs and buried him nearly up to his hips. He was immediately extricated and moved to his residence. only o fow doors distant, where ho died about 4 o'clock. The coroner was notified and immedi- ately empaneled a jury, who upon hear- ing the evidence, state that they found that the diseased came to his death by a mass of earth falling upon him at the place above mentioned. It is the prevailing opinion that a large chunk of dirt must have fallen upon him in such a manner as to have injured him internally. He was about 37 years of age and leaves a wife to mourn his loss. His funeral will take place to-day. A POINT OF LAW. The Responsibility of Cities in the Disposal of Street Kailroads. The supreme court of Colorado recent- ered Tuesday evening. A Christmas tree was the feature of the evening, but mem- bers of the Sunday school contributed to the evening’s enjoyment by recitations, song, otc. 1t was a joyous occasion and every one was happy. AT THE CATHOLIC CATHEDRAL the services were as usual grand and im- pressive. High mass was celebrated at five in the morning by the pastor, Rev. Fr. 0'Connor. The church was thronged, The main altar was beautifully decorated with natural and artificial flowers, and lit up by dozens of tapers. Above all the illuminated star told the story of the birth of the Saviour as plainly as columns of print. The side altars were profusely decked with flowers and burning tapers, the latter in the form of the letter **M” and a heart. Pontifical high mass was celebrated by Rt. Reyv. Bishop O'Connor, with a corps of assistants, beginning at 1030, The choir faultlessly rendered St. Ce- celia's mass at both services. ——— CRAINE vs, CRAINE, A Ohicago Divorce it, in Which a Former Omaha Man is One of the Partie: W. N. Craine, formerly of Omaha, but now of Chicago, where he is the Equita- ble Life Insurance agent, has been sued for divorce by his wife. The Chicago Tribune of Tuesday says: ‘‘Last Thurs- day Mary W. Oraine filed a bill in the circuit court against her husband, Wil lism Niel Oraine, the local agent of the Equitable Life Insurance company, charging him with cruelty and asking for a divorce, Yesterday Craine filed his an- swer, denying all the accusations. Mrs, Oraine claimed that her husband, since their marriage in 1879, had often beaten and choked her; that in 1880, when they were at the Giardner house, he struck her a violent blow in the face, and on another occasion, when she was sick in bed and soill she could not raise her head, he treated her cruelly, calling her opprobrious names and sneering at her. e refused to provide her with necessary food and medical assistance, and she had to borrow money to pay her bills.

She also claimed his business was worth $100,000, with a salary of $8,000 or 810,000 n year, and she wanted alimony and an injunction to provent him from disposing of his prop- orty. Craine, in his answer, denies spe- ly rendered a decision of a question like- ly to arise in this city should the property owners on streots given to the Belt rail- road appeal to the courts. The property owners in Denver sued the city fer giving certain streets to the Circle railroad. A test case was taken to the supreme court on the question whether the city or rail- road company were liable for damages to adjacent property, and the following de- cision was rendered: The three questions passed upon are (1) as to the right of an abutting lot own- er in this state to compensation where the adjacent street is occupied by an ordinary railroad, and his property is thereby injured; (2)if he is entitled to compensation, did the city of Denver be- come liable therefor by the action of its council in granting by ordinance a right of way to the railroad through the street; and (3) if the lot owner is entitled to compensation, what is the measure of damages, As to the first question, we say that under the peculiar language of our state constitution, which requires just com- pensation where private property istaken or damaged for public or private use, the abutting lot owner is entitled to compen- sation in a case of this kind. In the first plncq the abutting lot owner has rights in the street which are not shared by the general public. Without this easement connected with his lot the property itself would generally be of little value. Such rights or easements are preperly within the meaning of our constitution because they are absolutely necessary to enable him to use and enjoy his property. But while he 18 enmles to compensation under the constitution in a case of this kind for any interference with these rights which diminishes the value of his property, yet there are cases in which the courts pronounce it a dam- age without injury and deny compensa- tion, as where the injury results from a reasonable and appropriate exercise of the power to control the streets by the city council in improving the street for the benefit of the public. While the railroad is a public benefactor and a great advantage to a town or city, yet its con- struction and operation through or in the street are not such a use of the street as is contemplated in its dedication, it is not a local enterprise for the benefit of the local public, and it is an additional burden of servitude not com- prehended within the casement for an ordinary public street. The question as to whether or not the abutting owner also owns the fee of the street is, under our constitutional limitation, immaterial. A similar constitutional provision has Aiiaed.

At both the Millard and Paxton hotels Tuesday elegant dinners were served and a large number of our citizens par- took of the repasts. The bills of fare were elegantly and tastily gotten up, At the Paxton a fine roast of beef was ived with the following attached: *‘This roast of beef was cut from the carcass of the imported Hereferd steer ‘Marmion,’ a prize animal in the class of three yur' olds “':?i‘ blMu Chicago fat Gieorge Leigh, 7 S ok stock show exhibif M prior to the adoption of the constitution, and it nowhere discussed or referred to the statute of 1808; hence the words “injuriously affected” in that statute re- ceived no interpretation in that case English atatutes and English authorities interpreting them, similar to the statute of 1858, were also referred to and dis- cussed. Under the second question, if the city council by the ordinance purporting to grant the right of way did not undertake to deprive 'fu abuttingowner of compen- sation, but simply declared the consent of the city and t{s general public to the use of the street by the railroad, no one would contend that the city is liable in this action. On the other hand, if they attempted to confer the right to use the street without such compensation their action would, in this respect, be an usurpation of power not possessed and in conflict with tgg constitution, and under the law it would not be binding upou » municipal corporation, a0 that the city could not in either event be held re- sponsible. Now, upon the third question, the meassure of damages, where the ty is entitled to compensation at all, is the actual diminution in the market value of his premises for any use to which they may reasonably be put, occasioned bythe construction and operation of the rail- road through the adjacent street, . g The judgment of the court below is reversed and the case remanded to the district court, with directions to said court to dismiss the action, The Opening of Winter.

ADAM MORRELL, the Millard hotel barber, was the reci- pient of an_elegant gold headed cane, a token of esteem and respect from his emn- ployes. 1t was elegantly carved and ap- propriately engraved, and was presented by Mr. Phil Jerold, foreman of the shop, who made a very neat little speech. Mr. Morrell was completely overcome with surprise, but assured his men that he fully appreciated their kindness. e ey Police Court, In police court yesterday morning there were eight cases for disturbance of the peace.

THE FAMED LOUP VALLEY. A Trip From Fairfield to North Loup —Lively Towns by the Wayside. Correspondence of Ttk Bzk. Norru Lour, December Your correspondent left Faicfield on the local freight Monday a% 1 p. m. Coursing along over these broad prairies in a ca- boose attached to a freight train enables one to get a fair view of the surrounding country, with plenty of time to see the towns and villages. As we drew out of Fairfield - on the St. Joseph & Western railroad, the sun was shining pleasantly and the air bore a calmness equal to that of a September morning. Our first stop- ping point was at the busy little town of Glenville, in Clay county. Glenville has a population of about 200, is a good grain -hi&ping point; has a large grain elevator at the depot. Near by are the railrovd stock yards, in which were confined some very fat hogs ready for shipment From the train you have a good view of the ,town—the large school building, sit- uated a little west of the town, being a most prominent feature. Many new buildings are in course of construction, stores of all kinds, lumber yards, etc. The next place reached was the city of Hastings. the queen city of the prairie, with its 5,000 population. Hastings is situated at the crossing of the St. J. & W. and R. & M. railroad, and has, as its main feature, one of the best conducted daily newspapers outside of Omaha. Leaving Hastings, we passed through the towns of Hansen and Doniphan, crossed the Platte, and arrived at Grand Island at5:30. Between Hansen and Doniphan the country was noticeably thickly settled ~—white frame houses dotting the prairie on all sides, with here and there fne groves, immense haystacks, and plenty of grain being hauled to market. Grand Island is o lively town; and seems to have a little more of the get-up about it than its rival—Hastings. The buildings are large, commodious, well built of brick, but their sidewalks are miserable —being built of boards, half of them loose, some off altogether, making a very unsafe walk—especialiy after night. We found the city dressed in its holiday attire and her streets and stores filled with buyers. One thing needed here very much is a daily paper. 1If they had one, such as Hastings possesses, it would in- deed give the town an air of importance which; it would benefit much from, Grand Island has one of the very best of hotels in the Jordan house, conducted by Captain J. B. Jordan, This house is built of brick, three stories high, con- tains some sixty rooms and is well and tastefully furnished throughout. Al- though the house is only a month old, it enjo; most liberal patronage, Luvmg Grand Island at 9 Christ- mas morning, wo passed through the towns of St. Libory, St. Paul, Almar, Scotia, and arrived at North Loup, the terminiusof the road, at 11:30. The trip from Grand Island to North Loup is one of the most picturesque of Nebraska. Soon after leaving Grand Island the prai- rie becomes rolling—so much so that one in search ot a home would soon become discouraged if he knew nothing about the sublimity of the Loup Valley further on. Shortly after leaving the station of St. Libory, we merged into the valley, crossed the Loup river and rullod up at St. Paul. St. Paul i ive town of some 700 souls, and is situated nicely on an elevated piece of ground and has a very large grain elevator at the depot. ‘The railroad continues along the south 25. bank of the Loup aud crosses the river | 1 just before reaching Scotia. Just efore crossing the river here, the road branches, the main line running to North Loup. The train does not divide here, but runs up to Scotia and then backs again to the main line and roceeds on to North Loup, the present rminus. The two towns are within sight of each other, got being more than two miles apart. North Loup makes a favorable impres- sion on the newcomer, The citizens are wide awake, go-ahead class, have excel- lent stores, good buildings and the best farming land surrounds it Your correspondent held a brief con- versation with *“Elder” Babcock, post- master, and oue of the earlier settlers, :i:d bpmutfiod.od_.'chim o.lsvg:_yup n&a, is still residing upon if € t site of she town. m%_ & genial gentleman, accommodating, NN 7 7 What gives our Children roey cheeks, What cures tielr fevers, makes them sloep | 'Tls_Castorin.

The train men on Condustor Williams' train are deserving of much commenda- tion, they having *‘thrown in” and pur- chased bags of candy, toys, etc., and dis- tributed the samo along the route to those farmers’ little children living in sod houses, thus making their little hearts beat with joy over Xmas presents they would not otherwise have received. It was my intention of going on to Sargent—the Omaha town—but convey- ances were scarce, and hence I will write it up again.
