A SPIRITUALISTIO “HULL.” Yesterday's Opening Lecture on Spir- ftualism in Metropolitan Hall, A Bee reporter attended the lecture deliversd at Metropolitan hall Sunday afternoon by Mrs. Hull, formerly of Bes ton, but now rasident th Towa., The lec- turer In of patite form and figure, of no- ticeably nervous, or rather quick manner, but perfectly at home upon the lecturs boards, She has a face that shows thought and study and impresses one with the Idea that she Is terribly In earnest, either in her belief tn the theory she ad- vocates, or her effort to make her hearers sccopt {t; perhaps in both. The exercises began by reading an ‘‘or. iginal poem” in & manper most pleaeant and indicative of study and practics. Then followed a_song which was very pretty in Itself and more than paseably well sung. Other songs with organ ac. companiment, in which the audisnce joined, filled the firet half hour, when the lady launched into the subject of the lec- ture, SPIRITUALISM, After a well worded introduction the lec'urer declared that unless a theory 1s based upon reason it will not ner does it deserve to stand. That the doc- trine sha advocated was based upon reason; that whatever has been spoken or written in favor of Christlanity fa its usual sense, golng to prove the dootrine of immortallty and a fature existence to be a fact, aleo proves that spirituallsm is true. Dariag the past twenty years the chief oppoeition to the dootrine she ad- vnuta«fl’na come from the -church pul. pits, but that is all silenced now in In- telligent quarters. The remaining enemy of spirltualism is modern materislism; it is an active enemy. There are two sorts of splritualists, she said; one she ealled spirituelle, the other spiritist, and she drew tho point of distinction between them in a most spiritualistic manner it seemed to the reporter. This dootrine, she held, must be studied: it must be investigated liko other theories, because reason s at the bottom and by reason alone will its teuth become manifest; the spiritual world is a world of reality, filled with splrite, it ia saparate from this world or life though is connected with its peo— ple; each member of the audience isa real spirit, the fact that they are clothed in flesh and blood matters not. Spiritualism accepts *‘religion,” not in ite true meaning of something that fs in the past, but as all that {s good, humare, pura, ennobling and prodactive of happi- ness and good, for the religlon of the spirituallsts Is as bread as humanity and as deep. The lecturer clalmed the mastery of men and women by church, as an organ- ization of parrow creed and sect, has de- parted forever, -This world, thls age, move, and 8o does her cause—it offers the priating press and school room in- nenf of a pulpit of narrow dootrines Science and arts are at tho front and the :theorics she advocates run in company awith them. There are at this era better ‘brains, better thoughte. wider and more iliberal views, all things progressing and «nlarged excopt the sectarian religione; thete with their narrow principles linger alone in the rear. Great geniuses can mnot be slaves nor be confined by puny minded sects or narrow visions. The lecturer a% this polnt presented a moet beautifally worded pleture of the strains ¢f unwritten musle that play upon the ideal brain of the composer, which he cannot reduce to writing, snd thr~ illns- trated her theory. Prcceedi: turer appealed to geology and tre gec e phy of the heavens, showing that all the lessons gathered In those fields of explo- ration sustain her philosophy. Hootlng at tho narrow, puny ideas that are at- tempted to be forced upon men and women by weak and narrow teachings, the lady closcd a well deliverad and care- fally worded address with a rbythmical peroration of extreme beauty, whoee de- livery showed her a student of elccution at once painetaking and appreclative. Mes. Hall goes this week to Madison, but will, she ,told the reporter, lecture here at times during a month. Her audi- enes frequently applauded some of her many bsautiful eentences, while gener- ally her intonse earneetness of manner held their silen i — Amang the numerous unfortunates boforo Judge Beneke yesterday was one who was thero for the first time, Fis dress and gen- eral appearance betokened his calling and his rank among the horny-handed men of labor. The charge was too much of that which steals away men's brains, and when he was called to stand up before tho terrible dispenser cf law and justice and asked what he had to say, with tremulous iips ho declared, “‘upon my word Judge T had no more than two di inks of whisky, but it was upon an empty stomach and the vilo stufl turned me over; it did, in- deed, “Go on, go on, now; don't take up my time or I'll turn you over to jail. Go, and don’t come here again,” said the court, #“That I will, sir, you bet I will go a grinning” —and he went & grinniug. Another of Oma Improvements, Articles of Incorporation have been filed by the West Side Building Associa- tion, the objects of which are to provide good aud comforiable homes to yonng men of good position but limited sala- rles, who do not possess the means to build themselves, and can not afford to borrow money at heavy interest. The aasoclation is also Intended to settle up snd to form communities, and to mutu- ally improve suburban{neighborhoods, that will ere long form the most delight- ful portion of our rapldly-growing city.’ The assoclation has organized and elected as divectors the ' following members: J. A, Wakefield, Siduey Smith, J, P. English, Alvin Finch, Wm. H. Alex- ander, Walter B. Wilkins, W, H. Mo. President—J. A, Wakefield. Secretary— Walter B. Wilkins, Treasurer—Wm, H, McCague. Gen'l Superintendent—S8idney Smith, The assoclation has just purchased of A. J. Havssom, between thirty and forty lots, in Hanscom place, which that gen- tleman has withheld from the market for a long period, as he alwavs considered them the cholcest reeidence lots in the city, These lots are just north of the park, and have a very commsndiog view of the clty in every ction, adjacent to tho street cars and in every respect are most deeirabla, The company will at once commence the erectlon of & number of residences of various styles to cost from §1,200 to $2, 500 each to contain all the modern im- provements that are usually found In suburban resldences. The stock of this company is divided Into shares of $2,000 which {s payable by monthly Installments of §25, together with interests not to ex- oceed four per cent, which is Intended for a fand to meet contingencies, such as slckness, or other disability that would temporarlly embarrass the member and prevent prompt payment of the monthly installments, Over thirty gentlemen have already signed ss members of the sssociation, snd many spplications have been racelved. Thke wuovelty of this #chems I8 attracting considerable atten- tion and many good results are anticl pated from it and doubtless others will follow in different portione of the clty as the necesti'y of removing outslde or farther from the business portion is more apparent every day. LOCAL CRIME. Drunken Untortunates Robbed--Drug Store Swindle~Lost a Watch, The robber and foot pad are oncs more beginning opperations, now that spring Is gently beaming. = Eatly Sanday morning Petar Lindblad, & Swede of some 40 years of sge was robbed of 240 while carousing around In & half deunken condition in the Dooglss street reeorts. The police have been notified but have struck no clue. The strangest part cf the macster is that Lindblad had expected to start to Sweden the next day snd had on Saturday drawa from the savings bank the total earnings of a fifteen yeara’ sojourn in Amorlca, Part of this money, 85,000, was in the form of a European draft, while $245 was in_cash, He had evidently been watohed by ‘‘crooks,” who knew of his intentions, and of his poesession of so much money. For- tunately, however, he |left the $5,000 check with s friend, and kept “only the cash, Shortly afterwards ho was selzed upon by two strange fellows, who Induced him to drink heavily and robbed him while helpless, ANOTHER VICTIM, Pat Shehan, of Pennsylvania, arrived in this city Sundsy with $84.25 in his ockets, He became blindly intoxicated, aid down to sleep in a Douglas street saloon, and in his drunken stupor was robbed of all the monoy he had. He has Informed the police, but as there is no particular clue to the thleves the likeli- fiood of recovering his wealth is not very great. A WHISKEY AND GLYCERINE BEAT. Sunday night a well-drested stranger went into Saxe's drug store on Farnam stroet, and bought some whisky andglycer- Ino of the clerk. Insteadof paying for the articles he told the clerk to charge them to the eczount of F. M. Phillips, who, he sald, had sent him to make the pur- chase. Shortly after he left, the clerk, Mr. Hollis, becams suspicious, and tele- phoniwg to Mr. Phillios' resi- dence, learned that that gentleman had sent not order for whisky or glycerine, at least not that night. The cost of this operation has baen charged up on the hooks of the firm te the ac, count of ‘‘charlty.” —— PERSONAL. Church Howe left for his home in Aubarn yesterday.

District Oourt Oases Finished —COoun- ty and United States Tribunals. The jury In the Ebenback case wera charged by Judge Wakeley yesterday afternoon, and a4 half-past five o'clock tetirad, Subsequently they returaed, and were dischargad after disagreement, The oass of Connally va. Miiler, a suit in replevin to recover ssme properiy attached by Sherifl Miller was next taken up. GIVEN TO THE JURY. In the Mills libel prorocution yeser- day the attorneys summed up the case and the judge, after instructions, gave it to the jury, who had not returned a ver dict at the hour of adjourament lnst eve. ning. It will doubtioss be ready and handed In this morning. Tor Bee has no desire to repeat or re- call the features of this dirty, scandalous case. Whatever tho trath may be, the oase i too vile for the colomun of a paper that respects itself or its virtuous and re. fined readers. Such things as arecharged by the one party in the caso aud denied by the other party Interested may and doubtless do occar in this world of humen fallings, snd for the good of so- clety and good order the law prescribes punishment, but no good can come to the virtuovs, the pure and the stainless {rom adisplay In the columny of reputable journals of sach shime and degradation #s characterized the ground-work of this tomewhat notorlous prosccation. What- ever determination the jury arrive at will eatisfy the law and therefore should satisfy soclety. During the hearing of the case Judgy Wakeley hes evinced re- murkably good taste and displayed a full and ready acqualniance with the prinei- ples of law aud the ru'es of practice, and to his everlasting credit be it said, he has drawn the reins upon the advocates of both sides and held them as nearly as possible within the bounds and down to the question at tssue, The attorneys have done their whole duty and when the jury shall have fully performed their solemn affice, let us hope that the case and {ts filthy surrounding will be forgot- ten, A VERDICT, At a late hour the jury returned their verdict, by whichthey find the defendant, James Mills, guilty ot oriminal libel as charged. The Howard murder case was next taken up. The circumstances attending the indictnent of the defendants, Lizzie Howard and John Thompson, for the suspected crima of fatally buralng the glrl, Nettle Howard, by throwing coal oil over her and then setting her on fire, are too well known to need minute detailivg. A epecial venue of fifty jurors has been ordered, as eleven out of the first twelve were objected to on the telf-confessed grounds of heing prejudiced. The trial promlses tobe one of seneational devel- opments, and will doubtless be Jarge'y attended by those who have a penchaunt for the horrible. DISTRICT COURT NOTES.

A forinight or jmore ago in Chloago on his return from Kentucky, he accidentally slipped on the sldewalk and fell, fracturing his left leg betwoen the knee and ankle, Both bones were broken, and his wife who had gone to Chicago to meet him, happened in time to nurte him, Yestordsy Mr, Hawes, accompanied by bis wife, returned to this city where he now {s.

COcnsiderable discussion of ways and means to secure raprasentation of that section In the city council ocourred. A large number of those present exprotsed themselves. Mesirz. M, Lee, H. G. Olark and A. Pratt were spoken of as fit candidates, and rome desire was manifested to pre. tent thelr names to the two conventions, It was finally deemed inadvisable to make formal nowminations, and the meeting adjourned after paesing a resolu- tion that It was the sense of the meeting that one of the slx councilmen to be elected by the clty at large should be a resident of the Second district of the Second ward, The reasons for this sctlon are found In the fact that the greater part of public improvements likely to ba done In the second ward the coming ‘year will naturally fall upon the wost end, which has heratofore received comparatively little conslderation from the * council, The best of feeling pre- valled, and it Is believed the two meet- ings will awaken enough interest to in- duce citizens of tl:e “hill” to attend the ri and 8, C, On next Tuesday evening the clrcle holds its regular meeting in the Y.

C., March 5—A lovely day, a huge throng, a magnificont military and clvic display, the programme successfully carrled out; and you have the inauguration in full, the telegraph having given you the datails. One feature of onr governmental eys- tem was grandly illustrated: the transi- tlon of power of one to another; the lay- ing down of exccutive authority by one, and the taklrg of it up by another. At high noon Chester A, Arthur is prosi- dent; a moment elapses, an oathis takeo, and Grover Cleveland is president. The change takes place as quietly and smooth- ly a8 the water flows in thelittle rivulets; bat in that act the verdles of the Ameri. can people is consumated, Me. Cleveland appeared to good ad- vantage, and he had the GOOD SENSE AND THE GOOD TASTE to deliver his address and not read it; he had no manuscript before—nothing save an envelope on which thero were a fow heads of his dlscourse, and to which be referred twice. As he stood beforo the vast multitude he was eniizely self pos- sessed, calm and collected; he spoke in a loud, clear voice, well modulated, and 'was heard a long distance from the stand. His whole besring and deportment was unostentatlous, dignified and impressive. ‘We had just listened to Edmunds in the senate, reading h!s valedictory, and to Hendricks reading his inaugural, the latter about four minutes in length, and the former about eeven. Both read them very poorly, espec'ally Hendricks, who was not heard by half of those In the senate. He used to have a good veice, and was a good speaker. It Is straoge that men who have been In pub- lic life as long as Edmunds and Hen- dricks, and old lawyers, too, should feel constrained to read thelr little speeches on this occaslon. Yet that has been the practice of the presidents of the scnate and the speakers of the house. I hope Cleveland has set a precedent in this re- spect that will be followed. Extempor- aneons speakiog should be a feauture of everyone's educatlon. notice of a debating sacleiy or Iyceum, I alwaya feel that these who are engaged in them deserve encouragement, for the result must be mutual improvement. As to the addrese, you have it, and I shall not comment on it, except to re- mark that if any one can draw any atsar anco from it that republicans will not step down and out and democras step in, 1 predict they will not find it well supported. IN HIS CADINET SELECTIONS the president has committed the mistake of which I wrote in a former letter—the taking of two from one state, and that state New York, from which he comes. 1t is universally admitted to be a mis take, a blunder, and by none more than by demoerats, Ohicans say their state has bsen snubbed, and ask why such men as Thurman and Pendleton, of national reputation and standing, of experience in public affairs, be thrust aslde for un- known figures, like Manning and Whit- ney? Indianians are Jiterally mad, and rave at the ignoring of that state. All the dem>cratic membera ¢f the Indiana leglslature asked that ex-Senator McDon- ald m'ght be selected from that state, and this was supplemented by a letter to Cleveland signed by twenty-one demo- cratic United States Senators, strongly rec:mmeming McDonald. A little knot of Indlana democrats were dircussing this matter to-day; one of them told me what they had sald, the substance of which was that they would remember Hen- dricks, The conviction is fixed fn the minds of Indisnians tha! Hendricks has done all in his power to prevent the ap- pointment of McDonald to the csbinet, and has been KNIFING HIM ALL THE TIME, after having betrayed him at the Chicago conventicn. No matter what denials may be made, they believe, and it s notorlous at Indisnapolis, that family jealonsles have much to do with this businesz. Dan.

This is an illustration of the effect of kaeping ae- counts on ofher branches of farming, Now I8 a good time for the farmer to be- gin &ccounts of spring operatione, o — HEBREW AND CATHOLIC.

For more than two hundred years such a_dispen. sation has not been given, therefore the groat sensation, The Curia decided to allow the marringe of Baron Pcdraghy and the Count- ess of Unatrone if solemnized in & Catholic church and by a Catholic clergyman, Baron I’uqughy signed a declaration (which was do. posited with tha cardinel at Prague) binding imself tv educate the children of the mar- riage in the Catholic faith, The pope, in a remarkable brief founded on canon Iaw, stated that marriages between Catholics, heathen, o Hobrews were permis. sible, for the rexson that thereby thero was the possibility of saviag a soul by conversion to the Catholic fait . The marriaga will soon take placaat Vienna in St. Augustine’s church, _The curial decision has also a political siz nificance.

Buv true it is—and the world seems provokingly indifferent to a matter of such supreme impor!anco—that some week sinca his excollency, the governor of the state, in appointing ten reprosenta. tive agricultarisis to represant Nebraska at the World's Fairat New Orleaus, named this distinguiehed tiller of the solf asone of the number. While we have scverely felt his absence, wo deelre, neverthelese, to mingle onr congratula- tlons wi'h those of the stata at large oyer the fitnees of the appointment, and the high results which must flow from It, This selectlon fs one of the most brilllant acts of a brilllant adminfsteation, and goon far in refuting the petty slarders of scurriloas scribblers and pictorlal prints which represent our governor as com- pesed of MORE HAIR THAN SENSE, I have heard it hinted by some in these parts that this choice of the gover- nor was made In considerat!on of certain friend'y and flattering notices which have appeared In Farmer Frank's paper. We have no patlenca with such low insinua- tlone. They are but emenations from small minda incapable of comprehending the methods of grest men. Ilostinct alone would point to Hilten as the far- mer among farmers. Instinct lad Fal- staff to detect the true prince. The gov- ernor, though want'ng the bowels, has all the bravery and instinct of Falstaff, and of even a better quality. Falstafs was no doubt corrupted by his assocln- tion with rlotous robbers snd fmmoral men and women, while-his excellency’s must have been improved and purified by his aesociation with the Kendalls, tho Thurstons, the Stouts and Heflmans, No, glad Governcr Dawes allowed 1) feelings of false modes'y t» interfere with Lis daty, cr prejudice ths publio good. The popular finger poin:ed as of one accord to THIS HORNY HANDED FARMER as its fitting represenfative, and not to have mymed him would haye done vio- lence to public opinton.

I bave read your allusion to him as a ‘‘capper” for that jllustrious foreigner. What a *‘capper” may be 1 am not really advised, but I am sure it must have close relation to this noble scienco to which our enthutiast gives so unanimous rising vote, a resolution was passed to the effect that the church make next Sun- day a specinl day of prayer for the spiritual and physical welfare of General Grant, ———— FOREIGN NEWS, SIR PETER LUMSDEN'S CAMP, Tauenan, March 9,—Sir Peter Lumsden, British commissioner on the Afghan frontier question, and his surveymg party, are en- camped at Senrabad, on the pension territory, ——— The Dakota Oapitol Bill Vetoed.

Telegraph and Mossenger. Just before the late war closed the old Weed buflding on Second street, was fill- ed with gold and silver coin belonging to the confederacy. Thetressure was guard- composed of citizens too old or otherwise unfic for the regular srmy, In this com- pany were two brothers, whose homes wera In an adjolning county, but who had refugeed, with their families, in Macon, Ono dark night, when the rain povred down in torrents and the guards sought refuge in what wes then the Methodist Book depcsltory, the iwo brothets, who were emong vheguard, told thelr comrades they would kcep guard in the rain, While the others were being sheltered from the rain, the two men effected an entrance Into the buildingand eecured a keg of the gold, which they managed to carry off under cover of the intenee dark- neas and secreted. The gold was barried on a subsequent night on the land belong- ing t) the brothers, When the war closed they sought to dig up the treasure, bat it could not bs found. ~ They cou'd only dig at night for fear of belng watched by their neigbbors, but after a long search they falled to rind the money. Two years ago the money was found eeveral hundred yards from the looulil%lt which they look- ed for it yeara sgo, They had mistaken of fence that marked the epot The brothers divided the money and went west to live and ara now enjoying Col, Willism B, Johuson, who had charge of the coafcderacy in Mason, Is Inclined to discredit the story for thie rea- son that none of the money was mlssing, He says Mr, Memminger, secretary of the treasury, ordered $3,500,000 in coln to bs tent from Montgomery to Macon., Scon afteward $1,000,000 was drawn to ba eent to Naissu to pay for arme, blank- ete, etc. Tha coln was put op In swong kege, which held each £50,000 in gold, The silver kegs held $5,000 each, al months before Gen.

A. Baldwin received a lotter from Governor Dawes asking him to come down to Lincola to confer with his exec- utive highnees, relative to the petition for Guthrie's pardon, which was submitted some time age.

If by this it is meant that from one’s appearance you can de- clde whether he is an artist, a lawyer, a farmer, and 80 on, I must dissent from the proposition. Farmer Frank looks ANYTHING BUT A FARMER, Tn fact he much resembles Mr. Paddy Ryan, a somewhat calebrated representa- tive of the manly art, and if it is not im- possible that when he first prezented bin self b fore the world’s congrees of agri- culturis's at New Orleans ho may bavo been mistaken for that gentleman looking after cne Mr. Sullivan of Boston. But after flourishing hiy spades, showing his hand and raking in some, 1 en1 sure thero wes no farther doubt, and I am satisfied our farmer friend was al)'c to show them nany tricks of the roble ecierce they never dreamed of. The World’s Fuir[ean never be con- eidered to hava been a failure, nor Ne- braska's appropriation towards a prcper represenfation there regarded other than wise, aftcr this action of his excollency. AGRICOLA, —— Fight Between a Dog and Urows, In La Nature, of Februrary 14, under the tit'e of ‘“The Suruggle for Extatence, . 1s a curious account of an attack on a dog a flock of crows.

Rising about two meters above ground, they would plunge their beaks invariably into a bleeding wound. When the dog was rescued by the workmen he wasin a dilapldated tate, his eye torn out and a deep wound in the neck, The crows remained sb ut the place for some time after the r.scua of the dog.
