Tae lower part of the house was well filled with friends of the children and school and when the curtain rose for the fieat time a beautiful scene was presented to the gaze. About four hundred childron, ranging in age from six years to eighteon years, were soated or standing in tiers rising gradually from the footlights to the rear of the stage, until the heads of the topmost ones were almost lost to sight in the scenery overhuad, The costumes were all very neat and pretty and many of the little girls wore arrayed in white, with floral wreaths and bouquots, “The Great Republic” was given in this city two years ago, but the perform- ance Saturday was vastly better, and everything passcd off more smoothly than when before producad. It is an allegory represenciog a chiin of inter- esting vents iu the history of our coun- try. The participwnts wore nearly all mom bers of the high school and ~ each and every oue one to whom was intrasted a speaking part acquitted him or heraelf nobly. Thera were s0o many that it would be almost impossible to give each JACK 0' LANTERNS. Which Are Patimed OF on This City for (ras Lamps, Dipped and Mould Candles, Elec- tric Burners in Comparison, How the City is Being Hood- winked by the Gas Company. A Plain and Potent Parley with Gas Inspector Gilbert, “'Has the council acted upon your re- port and recommendations yet!’ was the morning salutatlon of a Ber reporter to gas inspector Gilbert. “Not yot,” was the reply that accom- panied a cordial shake of the hand. **Not yet, but I am sure tho aldermen will at the very first opportunity, for a reform in the management of lighting the city is of the greatest importance. It means a large amount of money saved, increased comfort and convenience to the oitizens and above all it 13 a necessary step to- ward the economical administration of municipal affairs, Yes, the ocity father's cannot be true to the Interests of thelr constituents unless they overhaul the entire gas business. The fact {s the com- pany bas not lived up to its contract with the city at all.” What was the condition of the lamps when you assumed your official duties on the Hth of October last? “Dicidedly delapidated” replied Mr. Gilbert, “‘In fact out of the 300 apolo- gies for street lamps in the city there was soarcely ono fit to light the respecta- ble Omahog through dignity's way. Ful- ly threoe fifths were really useless because of broken glass and clogged burners, the latter belng the matn cause of defect. You neo tho lamp-black so readily formed by the vapory generation from this water gas had complotely clogged the burners making their fivo inch oapacity less than three inches and in many cases shutting ont all chance of illumlnation. The ps in use in this city have no ventila- n and where the pressure is the strongest there 1s sure to be a breakage of glass every timo they are lighted. 1 have alroady shut off 275 lamps for which the city was paying and receiving of course no equivalent whatevor. The city's contract with the unn company expressly states that the latter must furnish the posts, put them up wherever directed by the council and provide gas lamps that cost not less than $4 50" apiece. complying with this requirement we find that the city itself has. been paying for the lamps and_the expensoof setting them them up. In fact the Omaha streot lamps are not gis lamps at all, but com- mon coal oil lamps, arranged to set on wooden posts and would hardly bes toler- ated in a well regulated village. Still tho gas company 1s paid 8533 per year for malntaing these illumination apologios. Formerly the lamps were hardly ever cleaned, an indifferent attempt to do 8o being made about once in five weeks, whan in reality justico would not be done if the lamps were gono over every other day. The fact is, the present im- perfoct ssyle of lamp and the inferior quality of gas furnished procludes all pos- sibility of keeping the glass clean. I have made five careful experiments In this matter and in every instance 1 found that a lamp lighted to-night would be almost unfit for use to-morrow nignt on account of dirt. “‘How much does the city pay the gas company for erecting the posts and fur- nishing the lampa 7" hey pay $22 aplece, while tho ac- tual cost at the farthest cannot be more than $10 for each poat, $1.50 for each lamp and $1 50 for putting up the posta and lamp."” “Who has to stand" the brunt of the breakage in glass 7" “That's what takes te wind out of my salos completely,” was the reply. *Would you believe it, the city has to foot the bills for all the broken glass, and I give you my word that there is a now lamp broken overy night on St. Mary's avonuo and the high places where tho pressuro is greatest, Among my recom- idatlons to the council {s one to the effect that the gas company stand thias ex pense. I also advised that fitty new lamps be added to the present number, and that on the principal business streets the egg-shaped, or boulevard lamps, sinilar to that in front of the opora house, bu usod, tho old lamps be tng moved to the other wards. These boulevard lamps will cost ouly a trifls moro than the old style, and they will repay the difference in outlay in & very short time, By the torms of its contract the gas company was to furnish the Gear lamps, or othors of equally good quality. Ldon't find any of this grade here, and the substitutes are a miserable failure in every way. Any one, no matter how lutle his knowledge of gas illumination, can toll by the usual speary flanen on our street lamps that there is a flaw scmewhero, and the lights are by no means what they ought to be if the company was hold to tho torms of its o ntract. I underatand that the contract his about four years to run, and you can readily see how much the clty will be out of pocket if this state of things is wllowed to continue. 1 am contident the council will take action very soon—if it dow't beforo the oold weather sets Lu Jook out for a plente for the lights 10 this city will be winking and bliaking Ike will o' the wisps in & southern swamp, But I must go my rounds, It keops my old horse and inyself on the o all the time trying to keop the lamp burners straight and if the council will only take prompt aud declsive action in the premises wo may in the course of timo be ablo to get & fow lights on the strevt corners strong onough to make an opeque objuct cast u shadow.” Tho gas inspoctor and tho repartor & personsl notice It was under the di- rection of Mr, Hagar, who has proven himeelf to ba most euccessful in the drilling of ehildren.

The city may bs ssarched through and through and no more generous hearted or sympathetic man can bs found than €, T Loavitt, the county clork. H Iatest act of benevolence consisted in his giving a dinner to about fifteen boot- blacks and newsboys Saturday. The Tenth sirest mission ladies had been serving lunches and dinners in Fal- coner's hall for two days past in order to ralso funds to pay off somo debs of the association and to fucther their word dur- ing the coming winter. Me, Loavitt de- sired to help the work along and desiring to help in two ways, concoived the ides of giving thenewshoys and bootblacks a dinner and accordingly did so. Tho happy faces of the little fellows as they stowed away the good things in Anormous quantities, was roward enough to Mr. Leavitt, and who knows but the kindly words spoken and this christian act may not bo the means of awakening in the bosoms of some of these little street Araba thoughts of manhood which may ultimately lead them on to future great- niss and renown. Tn after years,long after the occurrence of Saturday has faded from Mr. Loavitt's memory, the little fellows who he thus bafriended will rise up to call him blessed, and he will bo called upon to realizo the truth of that old saying, *‘cast thy bread upon the waters and it shall return to theo aftor many days.” el L Seal of North Carolina Smoking To bacco is the beat. — PERSONAL, Mra.
