The governor reviewed the heroic deeds of the veterans of the Mexican war, reeapitulating historic facts and holding them up to eternal glory as soldiers who fought to extend American possessions and to further the progress of enlightenment on the American continent. Mayor Phillips, in giving them the freedom of the city, also Iaid great stress upon the brave deeds of the men who were before him. He said that no army ever had 0 many wen of character, and worthy of positions of honor and trust— men who had no object other than the public good. The president, General J. W. Den- ver, responded feclingly and tnanked the governor and mayor for the Kindly wel- come. After edlling attention to the National assoclation and its character, he said, th when it et it represented the entire country, not a party, not but a nation. 1t represented an ad never lost u bastie and when they had extended the pat: rimony of their revolutionary sires, they laid aside their arms and returned to their civie pursuits, and_when grim-v 1 war eame again, they were as willing, with few excep- tlons, 'to fight to sustain the stars and stripes within the United States, as they were to sus- tatu it on foreign ground. 1le was sorry there was a disposition gaining round to belittle the deeds of the Mexican soldiers.

The speaker drew an apt illustration from the seriptural story of the “Race which arose that knew not Josepl.” The Herod genera tion of to-day can see California, New Mex- ico and othe: acquired during that war, and their great wealth and yet they re- fuse to acknowledge the bravery of the men who shed their blood to it.

Siovx Crry, In., August 20.—|Special Tel- egram to the Ber.]—While the publie is waiting anxiously for the murderer of Rev. Haddock and his conspirators to be discov- ered and brought to justice. two very unfor- tunate strifes have been engendered in this city. One of these is in the mature of a uewspaper quarrel, in which the Journal and the Tribune are prineipals. The other is be- tween the city officers and the sheriff and hisdeputies. As these dispatches have al- ready indicated, the testimony of the wit- nesses at the inguest was taken in secret ses- sion, suggested by the mayor for the benetit of the police, the sherif and the district at- torney. For some reason the city oficers seom to have been taken into confidence by the coroner’s jury more than the sherifl. At all events the sheriff publicly states now that heis done with the matter, and says the po- lice may hunt the murderers and have the glory. The portion of the evidence pub- lished several days ago is now known to have come from the sherifl’s officer, the steno- grapher belng able to recognize it. How it was obtained, whether intentionally given or stolen by some reporter, is not known. The wajority is inclined to believe the former and the evidence strongly points tnat way. 1t in to be regretted that s mur- der investigation so important to all the best interests of the city and state. if not the en- tire country, should degenerate into petty quarrols and jealousies. King and Waltering, the men now under arrest Tor conapitacy and compliclly in the plot, are confined in jail but the sheriff, in an {nterview to-day, gives it as his opinjon, that they know nothing avout the plans axainst Bov. Haddoek but many are inclmed believe that he said this because the pris- ers were arrested by city oflicers, [t is to be hoped that jealousies and bickerings will give place 10 sober consideration of the awful grime committed and”tho hearty” joining of hands and purposes all around o leaye no *stone unturned until all the guilty parties shall be apprehended and brought ‘to judg- ment.

Dinsmoo of Omaha, superintendent of the socia scienco department. The judicfal vic presidents and superintendents of the othier varions departments of work will be appointed by the executive committee asearly as possible. In reviving the work of the association it is intended, as was evidonced by the discussions, to carry on the work in an edueational manner, forming as rapidly 18 possin women's clubs or associations which shall not only strive to procure for women “equality before the law,” but shall provide for the members as the constitution states, "()pl‘ulrlllllil)' for study and interchange of ideas upon all that ates 1o the improvement of home, society and the state.” The ad- dresses and discussions of the convention were of unusual interest and their tenor may be judged from the following reso lutions which were adopted by the con- vention: Resolved, That while we recognize the right of woinan to the full ballot we will make municipal suffrage our present deu from the legislature of Nebraska. Resolved, That the association will hold itself strictly non-partisan, but will ende by all legitimate means to ‘secure the to office of men favorable to the objects of the assoelation, tesolved, Tliat a fuses to women the control of property cighteen years of age, yetallows a girl sent to hér own degradation at ten y age, thus showing greator regard for p than for the honor and virtue of maiden! therefore we will work to secure tho pa: bill by the legislature ‘consent” 1o eighiteen years. Resolved, That a bill should be passed by the legislature of Nebraska prohibiting the sale and exposure of impure literature and pictures, and providing for the punmishment of the same by fine and imprisonment, Resolved, That this association is in full sympathy with the plan of work of the Wo- man's Board of associate charities, and will lend its aid in securing the passage v bill in the legislature, looking to itsinter- ests. Resolved, That werejoice in the sympathy of the Wonien's Christian Temperance Union in our lines of work and_ request our_execu- tive committee 1o confer with their state oflicers s as to secure the most effectual co- operation in such measures as are of equal interests to both organizations. The presence of Mrs. E. L. Saxon, of New Orleans, was a great inspiration to the meeting, ' On both evenings she gave a rousing address, and in the day sessions took a lively part in the discussions, During the evening session a teleg ved announcing that the state prohibition party had adopted o strong plank favoring woman sufirage. This was recewved with enthusiusm, and the hope was expressed that the other politi- cal parties might take the same action. The ofticers of the conyention were much indevted to Mrs. Simpson, Mrs. Tyrrel and other good citizens 'of the beautiful and thriving town of Madison and were much pleased wi th their suc cessful meeting. m of 10 ising the age of adints Overcome by the Heat. A man named Williams, residing on the bottoms near Coots’ plaining mill, was overcome by the heat last evening. He was working in a sewer in front of the mill at the time.

A very ludicrous scene attracted the attention of those who were in the vicini- ty of Fifteenth and Farnam streets last evening. The curtain rose with a dozen small boys sinzinf “Ab, there, mister, your buu;flr‘s on fire!” “Look out there, cully, you'll burn,” “see how she blazes, ete. T'lus turned the eyes of the curious to a buggy of the regulation real estate size, in which were two gentlemen, being rapidly driven up Farnam street. Under the seat was a fire in_full blast,and t occupants were entirely unaware of their proximity to a broiling state. The calis of the small boys, however, soon attraet- cd attention, and one of the men, seizing the flaming lap robe, which was the eause of the trouble, threw it on the pave- ment. Evidently a lighted cigar stump, as the ties had been smoking, had fallen on the robe, hence the fire, AL A High Priced Mule, C, H. Schiattord commenced suit in Jndge McCullough's court to recover damages in the sum of $53¢ from B. Furay. He aileges thathe purchased a mule from Furay warranted to be sound wind, limb and tucker, but it soon got sick and finally proved its worthlessness by dying after he had spent more than the value of it for doctor’s services. He thinks Furay ought to pay the dumages. Brevities, Judge Stenberg disposed of a number of unimportant cases in police court yes terday morning.

About 7 o'clock yesterday evening, two fellows, under the influence of the ardent, engaged 1 a scuffie on south Tenth street, and finally succeeded in a window in Duree’'s store. Both men took to their heels and were followed by y, who overhauled them m the rear of Odin’s saloon on Farnum and took them to the station. They reg- istered as Louis Swanson an E Reewer, The First Return. The first pilgrim from the shrine of Irish patriotism in Chieago who reached Omaha is Alderman Michael Lee. He camel n accompanied by his wife last evening, and is enthusiastic in his ac count of ths great gathering. Of course he, the Nebraska delegates and the whole state feel proud of Honest John Fiu- gerald's selection as president of the league, The Chicago visitors were also bighly fattored by e way in which theie fellow citizen Patrick Egan was received. Mr. Lee says the $2,000 silver set sont the late president of the league by huis friends in Ireland is one of the most elegant ever worked in silver by deft hnum to show the kind feelings existing between a most worthy donee and appropriate donors. The pieces are encased in an eluborate box of Irish box- wood, and will very hkely be exhibited in Omaha one of these days if Mr. Egan can be prevailed upon to exhubit it.

A BEE reporter visited the grounds yester- dayin company with Mr. Sam Couch, the superintendent of the grounds, and was ustonished and pleased, u 0, at the improvements that have been made 1 the grounds since last year. The ww- phitheatre, with'its seating capacity of 6,000 people, has been thoroughly re- paired since it was damaged by the storm last spring. “Che seats have been raised by means of blocks and are much more comfortable than before. The stand bas been provided with an iron roof, making the protection from storms com. plete. Sidewalks ha been built all tround the ampitheater and leading to the gatesof the grounds so that in case of arain the visitors noed not go in'the mud. A new judge's stand and a separate stand for the time-keepers have been crected. ‘The building that was destroyed by fire two weeks ago has been repliced by a substantial barn 60x140 feot in di- mensions, with ceomino- dations for thor 5 nundred box stalls for horses provided with porches, nuch needed protection from the heat and rain. Th re now in excellent trim three hundred box stalls and over tour hundred other stalls for horses and about the same number for eattle with ample _pen room for sheep and hogs all high and dry and under cover. The fences, sheds and stalls have ull been repainted and fur: nish an attractive sight. The grounds have been graded and made perfectly smooth all over the park. The facilities for reaching the park have been greaty increased _ovor year. Sixteenth street will bo paved as far as the ball park in time for the opening of the fair, making the drive an enjoyable ono. The Belt ratiway will have st the northeast corner of the grounds from which point sidewalks have been built to the main enirance leading to the ampi- theatre. There are a large number of horses on the ground in training for the coming races.

All of the spuce in the finc art hall has been taken and applications for exhibit room ure rupidly filling up the the other building.

After someo further conversation Benson left the hotel and went before Justice Anderson, where he swore out a warrant charging Levi with embezzlement, and placing the amount at $150.

Only a few of the horny-handed and kid glove citizens of Omaha were at the depot last evening to throw the ‘‘old slipper” after the city fathers as they whirled away southward on the 9:10 Missouri Pacific train. To the uninitiated might seem a lack of appreciation s law makers on the part of Omaha, but it was not so—rather a very con- siderate move, for had the city turned out ¢n masse, as it intended, some folks would be so mean as to say that Oma was glad to get rid of its aldermen. the small attendance was very appropri- ate.
