THE OMAHA DAILY BEE:l Beecher in London, Thera was an evident desife on the part of tiie ¥ two London . papers which made editorial commeit apon the discourse of Mr. Beecher t Sunday to treat the celebrated preacher with court crosity. But it is equally evident that the peculiar pulpit methods of Mr. Beecher are not altogether con genial to English education and taste in matters. The humor with which th yn preacher is wont to spice his both for his 0w relief and that t the flashes of lev with consummate impressively and in Lolder relief the serious aspects of his subject, could not do otherwise Y strike the English churchman, disci plined to the procrustean rule of high church conventionalism, as irreverent One can understand that it is a some what startling innovation to a people trained the English people are, for a minister of the on the Sabbath day, to periodically desert the solemn and serious thread of his discourse, and by sudden sally of wit or the interpc tion of a funny story, set the houso in a roar, There are a at many devout church people on this side the ocean who not regard this practice of Mr. Beecher with favor, and it eannot be doubted that with an inferior man it would be thought utterly intolerable But in the bands of the Brooklyn preacher these diversons, which if practised by almost any other mun would be con demned a8 meretricious, are made 1o tent instrumentalities for giving and impressiveness to the serious matter of his subjects which he desives shall take firm root and becowe a permanent growth in the minds and learts of his hearers, It is one of the of Mr Beecher's wealth of mental endowments that he has always at command the means to take himself and his andience out of the shadow into the sunshine, and he does this always with a masterful percep of the exigency that casily attests ham the first of pulvit orators and the fore- most of popular preachers. It is not doubtful that his English audiences will ord him this distinction, whatever they may think of his peculiar views and doctrines. PR —— csy and ge sermons of hi whicl skill widitors, an e employs to bring out more Zospe do richest American Actors Abroad. 1t is a genuine pleasure to read the en- thusiastie criticisms of the London press toeming with praise of Augustin Daly’s company of Amcrican actors. Therc not a word of dissent in all the not from the dictum of the ZTimes that urope outside of the Theatre cannot produce so well an organiz pany where individual effort is steadily subordinated to the general effect. A ht Off,” which was seen and appr cinted in Omaha as played by tho origi- nal company a year ago and again lust fall by a difierent east has taken the London th world by storm. On Saturday it was temporarily succceded by old English comedy, a daving experiment in the Gaiety theater where so many British have interpreted Goldsmith and Sheridan to fashionable audicnees. he success was instantaneous. The leading English dramatic critic of the dramatic press pronounced the company comedians of the first order and con- cluded by saying: ““The performances of Mr. Daly’s domfany are marked by an artistic finish, a_completeness and a well balanced uniformity of which we cannot sce too much and from which we have unquestionably something to learn.”” In Berlm an American Mikado company is winning golden laurels singing Sullivan's comic opera to crowded houses under the patronage of the Princess Victoria russia. Dixey, with his “Adonis,” Illy broken down adverse criti- cism in the English capital. Minnie Palmer has won fame and fortune on the same boards, Facets like these must sound strangely in the ears of the Anglo- manacs of the east who ape foreign cus- toms and applaud fourth rate foreign actors because it is fashionable to decry their own country and.to sneer at their own countrymen Keep Cool. The heated term is upon us and most of our subscribers are strugghng hard to resist the effects of the weather, How to keep cool is the problem which ull are trying to solve. A good basis for subse- quent operations is frequent bathing. Cold water and plenty of it - externally applied is almost indispensable in warm weather, The overworked pores must be cleared of all obstructions and kept open for the free passage of perspiration, The bath is the great remedy of east- orn nations for neat. A good sponge bath morning and ecvening, upon rising and retiring, will e found qu_effective méins of helping fo ward off the worst results of hot weather. Care in food and dieting cannot be too strongly urged. Hearty and heating food should be ayoided as much as pos- sible. Laght flannels worn next the skin will b found greatly preferable to heavy starched goods of either linen or cotton. Liquors or wines, whether iced or diluted with water, should be avoided as in- creasing ealoric, The best drink or all for workingmen in hot weather is cold water and oat meal, This 15 a mixture which has been used for years by stokers in the holds of our ocean steamers and foundrymen in great furnaces of the iron regions of Pennsylvania. The addition of the oat meal counteracts to a great extent the bad effects of the ice and gives nourishment which enables the system to upset the kening action of profuse perspiration, Finally to keep a cool body, see to it that the head is kept cool. Worrying and fretting about the heat will not heln matters. To keep cool, “keep cool.” The Buslness Situation. The signilicant features of the busi- ness ontlook are the decreasing number of failures in commercial circles and the growing confidence of traders in the outlook, There is increased speculative activity in cotton, grain and hog pro- ducts, all of which show some advance from recent prices, but in most of the distributing markets the tendency has been to quicter trading on account of the advancing season. In some liges mer- chants have beon busy with stock inyen- tories and account settlements, which have claimed attention to the exclusion of new business, but in several depart- ments the movement shows fairly sustained activity for the time of year. The distribution of merchandise is stili cather above the usual average volume for the midsummer period, The general distribution of dry goods has been checked a little by the divegsion of trade attgntion fo semi-npnyal glook in: ventortes, byt the market a8 & whole js in excellent shape, and the progyects are favorable for a prospetena fall, seaggn, Wool is strong and active at alipgints, with prices relativ higher in the ¥eat than on the seaboard. This disparity in selling values checks shipments to east- ern countries, and business is frequently restricted by insufficient supplics, biit there is a good demand, and a strong and confident fecling cha jzes the mar- ket. Produce prices are fiffnly sustained on arising rket. The rise in wheat is due chiefly to spect ¢ buying, en- couraged by unfavorable crop revorts wnd a desire on the part of timid shorts to cover their outstanding contracts. Ihere has been very little new buying for export, but statistical position and the out. look for legitimate demand are much more favorablo, and the bears have boen oper- ating with more cantion, Present indi- cations doQnot favor the expectation of n large and carly crop movement, on the supposed prosvect of which much of the recent wind-selling at low prices was based. While there e no official figures available to indicate the condition of the crop sinco tho last government estimate was made, the drift of the pubiigshed accounts from various sections has been less favorable, and popular estimates of the probable outturn, particularly of spring wheat, are somewhat reduced. ‘The cable brings in- telligence that the Russian crop has been seriously injured by drought, and that the India crop, with o smaller acre i showing only 75 per cent of a full condition. Tho acreage of wheat in nd is swmaller, and the erop s weeks late afid hias been damaged cather. In view of these reports 1 as well as speculators are show- cased reluctance tosell wheat at ruling prices. Jumping Jacks, We are not disposed to inflict upon our veople a bitter and vindictive controversy over the Fort Omaha bill, such as Senator Manderson’s would-be champions are trying to provoke. We do not propos to bandy words about the personalin- sults heaped upon us for daring to ques tion the infallibility of our home senato: We do, however, resent the assault which Mr. Manderson’s special organ makes upon the board of trade in calling them a setof “jumping j who have mec dled with something which the people of Omaha had not authorized them to touch, TFor sublime insolence this cer- tainly caps the climax. The by of trade ismade up of representative business men. Their right to discuss, approve or condemn any measure affecting the in- terests of Omaha is unquestioned. The do not derive their powers and privileges second-hand, like a member of congre or delegate to aconvention, but they are sovereign body within themsclves, ponsible only to itself. Now, w occasion is there for calling the bo “jumping-jacks?”’ Its action was not a star-chamber proceeding and the resolu- were temperate and con were over fifty memhers of the board present and the debate not conducted under gag rules,as may he n from the report of its proceedings which we herewith reproduce exactly as it appeared in onr issue of June Mr, Rosewpter snid thyt the lfl;xmL of trade ought to uke n_in- terest in u question which affected the city and which was now pending in congress. It was that refer- ring to the re-location of Fort Omaha. 1f any members present bad any reasons to advavce why the removal contem- plated skould take place, he should like to hear them. 1f not, he would hke to have the lower house of congress in- formed of the fact and to take no action on the pending bill until it could learn what were the feelings of the people upon the subject. M. ller said he had heard that the rea- son advanced for the removal of the fort was that there was not suflicient ground to be had at the present sito for the ac- commodation of the fort. Mr. Rosewater said he had been in- formed that General Crook did not favor removal, and yesterday Coloncl in charge of the riflo practice at said tho troops, wore getting along nicely as they were, Mr. Kountze had also informed him that suflicient ground near the present fort could be offered to the government if they wanted 'o make the change now would ous to the people who had given inds to the government to have them, now beautiful with drives and s,torn up and destroyed, The gove t would not spend one-half a8 much moncy in buying the additional ground required by the troops as it would in Fn-llmg a new place and erecting new huildings, The board ought to pass a resolution asking congress to take o uction in the premises until they u\*hl learn what necessity there exi ‘afi (03 making the chango. ~ Ofticers now Come {ii Taring the day to the city and make purchases. At night they attend church and the theater, élhuy could not do this if they were put ten miles ont in the country, unless suburban trains were put on for their accommodation, and they are not numerous enough to war- rant those being put on any ot the roads, The Belt line was already noar the fort and $10,000 would give them a lme to their doovs. Besides, they had beautiful drives leading there, and” every stranger who took u ride here always went out n cks,"” that direction and enjoyed the sight of the wuter works and *the beautiful roads. He did not think it was advis- able to tear up and destroy all these be- cause of some person who wanted to sell a farm In response to a question, Mr. H. T, Clark said that with regard to the Belle- vue range, both the owners and the sol- diers were happy and satislied with e thing. He further remarked that the site of the present fort r ted to the donors when it should be abandoned for military urposes. This opinion was econtroverted by Me fler and Hellman, both of whom Rad Blvon & natraf thla landy That had been the ur(zmxl underdtanding, but it was changed when the cuvvrnmgu built its last permanent buildings on' the grounds. Mr. Hitcheock said that the objections made to the present site wer ulequacy for vifle practice, inability to accommo date a twelye company post, insufliciency of ground to admit of artil dritl. The board should be interested in favor of Omaha, apd consequently should commit itself against the bill Mr. Rosewater then introduced the fol- lowing resolution Resolved, by theJOmaha Board of Trade. that we regard the relocation of Fort Omaha a5 detrimen to the ioterests of the eity and of no material benctit to the United States government, Resolved, That wo remonstrate against the passage of the bill recentiy passed by thé senate, and respectfully request the Tluum! committee on the military affairs to withhold action untl our citizens have time to present obiections to the proposed change.

No one vrotonds to deny the fact. With the numberless additions to the city now plagted, Omaha has an area, on paper, grealer than Manhattan Island. She covers moro greund than Chicago, and pushes Brooklyn very closely, which las all Long Island at its back. If the present police force is ex peeted to cover the whole city it must distribute itself at the 1atio of ono man to five miles of territory, The policeman who can handle such & job and cover the ground does vot live. The trouble i not that our police are incs able, but that they are called upon to perform impossibilitics, The respon- sibility for the condition of affaits rests entirely with the wretchedly ing revenue raised by tion. Nor inc e can be made in the police forc until we have a very material increase in our city assessments. 1t is useless to talk of appropriating from the general fund. On the levy made, our general fund will be quite inadequate tor the ordinary ex- penses, including needed grading and improvements, for which latter there will remain in the fund, after paying sal- aries, ete., less than $20,000 available for the coming year. To inerease the police by tapping the general fund would be manifestly unwise, GLADSTONE continues to fall slightly behind in the English elections, but the great mass of new members will not be selected before the end of the week. Wilen the returns are all in and footed un there may be a genuine surprise in store for the men who are so confidently counting on the defeat of the advoeate of Ireland’s claims for justice.

Senator Blair is now devoting his energies to his bill to prohibit opium smoking in Wash- ington, Congressman Jolin mont, helieves there against Edmunds for the senate. Senator Evarts likes to use the postal card in his correspondence. It is just about large enough for him to say “no” in one sentence.

Congressman Tim Campbell of New York told Senator Evarts the other day that they were going to make him president, and arts replied that when this came to pass he would make,Campbell minister to Ireland. The Buffalo Tunes says: Iolman, renom- inated for congress by the democrats of In- diana, will, if elected, and there is no doubt about that, enter upon his fifteenth term. “Thirty years in congress and still a poor man. What a proud record to leave to his children.

The contents of the case showed one what a 154 pound man apvears like from the chemist's point of view In othier werds, a suppositious man five feet oightinches high, weighing 154 pounds, had been passed through thée chemist's laboratos and divided and subdivided into his ulumate elements, There stood all these eiements and chem ical compounds in glass jars, properly labeled. Hence, as this important ele ment is lacking, it would be diflicult, so the chemist admitted to th reporter reporter, to make a man that would amount to anything, out of the contents of these ja The case of exhibts forms a part of asertes being prepared under the direetion of Mr. Romyn Hitcheock, curator of the section, and which, when complete, will illustrate not only the chemical’ composition of the human body, but the daily income and expendi- turc of the body, based upon the results of analyses made by Professor W, O. Atwate The story, ox meaning of the exhibits, 1s told go jiliinly by the diflerent sizes of the jars and the graphic and explieit statements of the l.m.-']u that it ean be asily understood, even by one who knows little of chemistry. The first series of exhibits represents the thirteen cle- ments which a large label informs you enter into tho chemical compounds’ of which our bodies are made, Five of these are gases and eight solid substances, The oxygen is shownin a jar with a label which states that the weight ot oxygen in a man_weighing 151 pounds is 9 pounds. This _jar, which would hol¢ about a gallon, represents only one-ten- thousandth part of the oxygen of a man of that weight, 1f the 97 pounds of oxy- cen wern set free from the body, it would fill aspace of 1,000 cubic feet. ™ The oxy- geh is the great'supporter of eombustion in the system. The nextsjar represents the 15 poun s of hydrogen going to make up the 154-pound man, amount of hydrogen sct free wounld fill 2,730 cubie feet, and the jar represents only one- ten-thousandtl of the whole system. An other jar or bottle, having a capacity of alittle oyer a quart, represents thie 3§ pounds and 13 ounces of nitrogen found in the imaginary man. This nitrogen free, would fill 48.3 cubic feet. Anoth small bottle contains, combined with cal cium, the 8.5 ounces of fluorine, and another jar contains one-tenth of the: 4 ounces of chlorme to be found the man. Chlorine is one of the consti- tuents of bleaching powder.

If the ses of u Ist-pound man began to pandand expanded to their utmost, the man would fill a ¢ room or hail.

After the the carbon, the phosphorus and su have been extracted trom the man ther, is nothing left of him but metals.

Yesterday morning a sporting man named “Red’’ Suilivan arrived in the ctty from the seene of the murder He was within tres feet of Ilateh when the latter was shot. In speaking with a Bekreporter to-day about the affair, Sullis van said that he had known both Hatch and Trout for some time. Trout had resided in Omaha t winter and worked in Wood's gambling house. He left there and went ont lfi town, finally reaching Sioux City in a bad ly demoralized financial condition. Hateh had gone into the gambling business at place, a short time befc and when Trout approached and asked for a job, the former took him into |»:|\'ln|‘rJ|||\, greeing to give him twenty-live per cont of the profits of the faro game, I'rout went to work and continued at it for some time, finally allowing a - ing of antagonism against Hatch to take possession of him.

While in town he patrontzed the different sporting houses after the manner of a man of his ocen pation, and spent his money with a liber- alty ieh made him mauy friends When he started for home he invited Sul livan to go with him for a short visit, and Suli naceepted the invitation and left with Hateh for Sioux City on last Thurs day evening. sarly Satur Trout became demon strative ted as to what he could do with Hateh and his triends.

In the n time Hateh had come to ‘his own pluace, and meeting Sullivan s 1g near the stud-poker table, took ten dollars from a roll of about one hundred which he was carrying, and of fered them to him as a stake to join the fi:un Sullivan accepted the money, sat down, played, and had just won a hund some stake when Trout entered and made cetly for Hateh, who was still standing cihie poker table. Trout commenced to abuse Hateh and the latter simply re plied that he had taken hold ot Trout when he wasin want, given him a posi- tion and in return for that was spoken aboutin u derogatory mann “Lhave not spokei of you in a deroga- manner,’ exclaimeil Trout. “Then T have been misinformed,”” said Uateh. Trout then pulled his revolver and im- mediately several people interfered and endeavored to r i out and induce him to put his pistol away. IHe drove every one of them back before his pistol, Yot iono of them thought Lo world use it. He then faced Hateh, and almost without warning fired a shot, the imkinn Hateh to the right of the br bone, Immediately the crowd fled, Hateh ran down the back stevs, }'un?n ol by Trout, but no more shots were fired. Hatch dropped a short distance from the foot of the stairs and Trout continued torun, Ifghe had gone down the front stairs ho most certainly would have been arrested by somebody, although it took minutes for a policeman to arrive.
