SMITH'S CASE AGAIN Last Night's Council Meeting—Fowler Bro's Packing House—A Charter Meeting—An Oratorio So- sicty—Other Local. Sam Jones The third night of the Sam Jones re vival was opened last night at the exposi tion building with an audience of about 3,000 people, the majority of whom had chairs upon the floor, Lhe galjery had rows of neads appearing above the balus trade. There was alson large party from Council Blufls present. The stage occn pied the east end of the hall, the same occupied by it during the June festival. The change was made in accordance with the wishes of Mr. Jones, whose de- sire was to have as many of his auditors as possible in front of him. The etage was occupied by the choir, which had been decreased in numbers sinco its imitial appearance on Sunday night. Besides these were the following clergymen: Revs, Harsta, Harris, Roe, Boyer, Crane, Detweiler, Henderson, Phelps and Sherrill. Mr. Maxwell announced that the exer- cises would commence with the invoca- n, rise God, from Whom All Blessings Flow,” which was sung in uni- son, @Rev. Mr. Harsha, who acted as presid- ing officer, announced prayer, which was short and delivered by Rev. J. W, Harris. Hymn 182, **All Hail the Power of Je- " was sung and prefaced by a request from Mr. Maxwell that the singers of the city would come forward and join the choir and take part in the es which yet remained, He hoped he would not be compelled to go away with the feeling that the many excellent vocalists which he knew the ecity con- tained fuiled to display a disposition to make the exarcises successful, Rev. Mr. Henderson then read from the twentieth chapter of Exodus. This was followed by the 24th hymn, “Glorious Fountain,” by the choir, and in the ren- dition of ‘which the organization showed a weakness remarkable when considered in connection with magmitude of the un- dertaking. Prof. ~Excel, of Chieago, a magnificently developed gentleman from Chicngo, then sang the “Lily of the Valley,” set” to a familiar ai During _the musical excrcises of the evening Mr. Will Tubor presided at the organ. Mr. Jones the appeared. In his open- ing romuarks he took occasion to refer m- directly to his delivery, mannerisms and rhetoric and slang which wi eferred to in these columns on Monday last. The explanation he offered of the same was that it was his desire to place himself on the same level with the audiences, His effort last evening was as interesting as that of the preceding night. The audi ence applauded when he scored free- license, and laughed heartily when he de- seribed a little steamer on Georgia riv the whistle of which was so I when the vessel blew her whistle she wus compelled to stop. After Mr. Jones' sermon Prof. Excel T sang with extreme fce_lin;.rh and sweet- ness, ‘*Save a Sinner Like Me." Services will be held this morning at 10:80 in the ficst Presbyterian church. Mr. Jones spoke as follows: Now give us your attention and we will continue the lesson of last night, which told us not to be weary in well doing, for in due season we shall reap that we are an need of. I want to talk to you in the plain nincteenth century way. ~ It is true that a man may be called a crank who wpreaches to you just as you talk to one another in your office and'in your place of pusiness, Welil, a n can afford to be called anything if he can just tind out the nigh fi:‘m on the road to heaven, 1 want to ta to you as you talk to each other on the streets, the same everrwhere, In regard to the provircialisms, when YOU SEE ME LETTING DOWN, I am {ust trying to get on u level with on. have been talking to youn s usiness way.

I know this much, your chances are as good as mine, and so ion z us [ have l‘ol d and the chances of well doing with me I have no fears in this world or in the world to come as to how 1 preach. There are many gre things 10 be learned from the lesson we had last night 1t says: “If a man be overfaken Yo that are spiritual go and restore him; if you do not you will fall also.” I do not eare what you do or what you do not do, the spirit that will make you neglect a poor fallen brother will make you a backslidex. A brother who had neglected a fallen brother said to me that he had NEVER BEEN A BACKSLIDER, but he also said he had never been con verted, and I saw from that that he neves was converted. Brethern let us keep ou brothor from falling. The Lord neve I am uot re but makes him work right along. "We Methodists ave afraid we will Jose and the Presbyterians are afraid they haven't got it, and that is the way the Lord keeps all consecrated, and that'is what we call working out our salvation with_ fear and trembling. If I want to grow, if I want to develoy a christian 1 have got to grow. 1 have f‘“' Lo grow or die. With- out action, without work, without activity there isno life.

Let me tell you, brother, get out from there with all'your heart and soul.

He ine that will pull cars, and it does not run anything but itself is tit for nothing but the DEVIL'S SCRAP PILE. What a man doesis the testof what heis; what an engine does is the test of what it is. One of the brothers wished to be the whistle, but we have got too many whi tles now, and like the steamboat going up the viver when the engmeer blows the whistle the boat stops running all at once. When he blows he can't run, and when he runs he ean’t blow. There are a great many christian people just upon that line. There isa man whose prop- is worth $20,000, and he planks down a year to the church and God. We will wait until [ get on the other side of the river before we will discuss his case. ROWLIN You put A man said to me upposo everybody in my church was just like me, what sort of a church would we have; suppose everybody paid as little as 1 do: suppose everybody went to prayer mecting as little as I do; what sort of a prayer meeting would there be.” 1t is your duty to be just as good yourself as any other man in the church is good. 1f you are not as good as anyone in the church it is your fault, and not that of the members, Be a good member in His family, and do anything that God or the church wants you to do. If you want to be a christian live like one, and you will be one. If there is trouble in my church it shall not be my fault. Iam going to be as good as I 'have got sense to be. Then I am going to like this church, Mr. Jones closed his sermon with an- other strong appeal to the christian parents of the city to combine in a fight against the powers of gin and sin nmho stand united for a higher and better moral training, A BRIEF BUT BUSY SESSION. The City Conuncil Disposes of a Num- ber of Unimportant Matters. All of the members of the council ex- cept Mr, Manville, were present at the meeting. The resultsof the banquet of Monday night was manifest in the quiet manner in which most of the members sat during the session, allowing most of the matters brought up to be disposed of without discussion, thus shortening the time of the session very materially. The meeting, brief as it was, was too long for Mr. Schroeder, who retired about 9 o'clock.

Judge Dundy's Decision in the Smith- Lowy Oase, v afternoon Judge Dundy, of ted States court, rendered a de- cision overruling the motion for & new trial which had been made by the plain- tiffs in the Smith-Low e. The caso, it will be remembered, involved the pos- session of the Smith stock and was tried in the circuit court at Lincoln, where a decision was rendered adverse to the creditors of Mr. Smith, By the terms of the verdict of course, Mr, Lowy secured the proceeds of the stock, amounting to many thousands of dollars, In" overruling the motion- for a new t Judge Dundy briefly. reviewed the points of the case, He said that it had Beenably condiioted fon::bBthisiIag and that this evidence was - very. evenly balanced. The jury would: bave been justified in rendering a decision cither way. The trial had been afair and im- paitial one, and the reguest for a new trial could not be based on the claim that the first trial had not been an equitable one. Turning from this pomt Judge Dundy briefty referred to the aflidavits which had been filed with the clerk of the court, and which, as claimed. fur- nished prounds for a new trial. The afli- davit of Smith was certainly a remarka- ble one, and revealed some smrl]iuq s, if they really were facts. ‘‘But,” d the judge, ‘‘some of the state- ments in them are very .remark- able. For instance, I knew Mr, Smith well, and I cannot bring myself to believe that on the eve of his departure for Canada, he was foolish to receive $10,000 from Lowy and then turn it mght over to Cole (the latter giving it back to Lowy) a8 Mr. Smith alleges in his affdavit, ‘There are. other points about the affidayit, too, whichlook decid- edlysuspicious.”’ Continuing in this strain at some length Juage Dundy finally an- nounced that he did not feel as though he could put the government to the ex- pensc and annoyance of & new trial. He would theretore, overrule the motion. The attorneys for the credi- tors are not yet vready to an- nounce what further course they will pursue, Itis probable that the matter will be tested in the higher conrt. In the case of the First National bank, of Pella, In,, vs Alvin Saunders, Judge Dun rendered a verdict for Mr, S. is is an old case growing out of a note ,000 given by Mr. Saunders in the settlement of the affairs of the. firm of Saunders & Hardenburg, which broke up i 75. The judge, in rendoring his ion, held that the note had been illegally obtained by the Pella bunk, and that furthermore its collection was barred under the statute of limitations. Hon. J. L. Webster successfully conducted the case for Mr. Suunders. Fowler Brothers' New Departure. The progress of the building of the new packing houses at South Omaha has been wutched with a great deal of inter- est by all classes of people. The labor- ing man has been interested because there was promise of the employment of a large number of men; the farmer be- cnusoe of the prospect of a much better market for his hogs, and the business man for the reason that when the far- mer receives a good price for lus live stock he is more liberal in his expendi- tures, and thus money is kept flowing through the arteries Cof trade. At last the houses are completed and the labor- ing man hasa job; the farmer rubs his horny hands with glee as he figures, in his mind, the money that his drove of hogs will bring him; the merchant’s rest is unbroken by that nightmare ‘‘dull trade and poor collections.” Yesterday the first hog walked up the rrow viaduct and disappeared in s." pucking house, and a thou- nd more followed him in rapid succes- sion, As very few people have cither the time or inclination to undergo the dis- comfort of a visit to a large packing house, it may be of interest to them to know something about the manner in which hogs nnfiu\ndh\d. Theday when the farmer killed his own hogs and hauled them to market has passed. 'wenty years ago hog killing day was the great day in the country, and it is to . be doubted if any who " were boys .in that day will ever forget its scenes and in dents. The men and boys of the neigi borhood would congregate and prepare for the work. A rousing five would be built under u huge iron. kettle, and us soon as the water was boiling, the unfor- tunate porker would be cornered. ut somo convenient place thrown on his Ninecteohth lo, of rd stredt to St. Ma the i back and “stuck” with a two edged knife. As soon as life was extinet he would be lifted up by the 1 and soused into a barrel of lot water to too=en the bristles, then drawn out on a plank. The bristles were scraped off by means of garden hoes, picces o(f broke soythes, old iron candie stiocks and” sini- lar instruments, which might happen to be at haud. ~Atlast he would be hung u on a limb of an apple trec and left out all night to cool. In the morning, before l!n)!f?hl, the farmer would be up and huve he haf's out fecdiug the horses, and ab am ourly hour would Le on his way to warket with his All that has clianged now, and it ouly requires a few more hauds to kill a thousund hogs, than it did in that day to kill a half dozen. At Fowler Bros' packing house, ith Omaha, the work has n Systen cd und rediced to & verfect science as it has in all lurge first cluss houses. The hogs are driven up a narrow drive wuy or viaduct, which brings them iuto the second story of the building. Here they are crowded in so close that there is no chanee for moving about. A chain, with an arramgement on the end of it nov unlike a handeT, 1s dropped down from above, snappedaround a hog's hind leg and wn'up again, leaving the hog hanging in the, air, The other end of the chain is gitached to a pulley, which slides on an iron rod or track. ~A light push starts ithe porker on the down grade, and ak he gfum over the slaughter pen the sticker, standing ankle deep in gore, gives Hinp a quick thrust in the neck with a Kknife, the withdrawal of which is folldwed by a stream of black blood. ‘Lheg hog les on down the track, white thersticker repeats the same act twenty, thirty or forty times per minute, according to the rate at which they are working. At the end of the Fog iron rod the drops with a splash nto a tank Of scalding water. The momentum of the fail causes him to float to the other end of the wnk, where there is a machine that gives hind a sndden flop upward, and he fands on a table. But his‘journey 1s not at an end, he npaled on o hook and carried up through "a machine, called a steam scraper, which takes the place of the hoe and broken scythe blade used by our fathers, and when he 18 dropped on a table ut the other end of the machine, a fraction of a second later, there are yery few bristles left on him. Water is con- tinually falling upon the table which carries away all the dirt, while men, standing upon either trim up the few places which may have been missed by the machine. He does not stop for a moment, but keeps movinz from one man to another down the table, for there are others following close behind him, in fact there is an endless procession of hogs moving from morning till mgnt. At the end of the table he is once more hung on a sliding track, the internal organs re- moved and sent to the various depart- nments where they are worked up into lard, fertilizer, ete., there is no stopping until the cooling room is venched. He next appeors in the cutting room, where the hams, shoulders and side pork are cut out and sent down to the salting room. At lust the pieces are piled up m the curing room in long tiers as high as a man’s head, It is an interestine sight to see the hundreds of tons of pork corded up 1 this manner. Fowler Bros'. packing Louse, which opened yesterday, has & capacity for kill- ing 3,000 hogs per day. 'This, together with the other packing houses located pe, will furnish a convenient market all the hogs that Nebraska and west- D Towa can produce. These ckers can well afford to pay better prices in Jroportion than Chicago, as it costs much to ship the manufactured product in it does the live animal, A NUISANCE, The Characterization by an I of the Postoffice Bmilding. Yesterday morning the stench in the lobby of the postoftice, especially in that part of it which is enclosed by doors and upon which the stamp, registry and money order ofliogs open, was almiost un- bearable. The attention of one of the employes was directed to it, and caused him to ejaculate most emphatically. SHIES L ey Sriv GEItoH BT mETa by place in my life. It is full of dirt from the basement up.

Yesterday morning a lady of this city, the wife of a well known railroad gentle- man, arrived here from St. Louis. She had been to St. Louis, and had come up in a Pullman sleeper.
