"THE VETERANS FROM COTHAM The Great Transoontinental Exoursion Party Arrived Yesterday. THE MEETING CF FIREMEN, Met At the Train By the Omaha Vet- erans, the New Yorkers March into the COiry -~ The Cappa Band. The Metropolitan Vet The coming generation will only know the old volunteer fireman as he lives in pong and story. The wonders of steam and electricity are the sequel to his days of usefulness, but while he lives, he will always be regarded with admiration by his fellow man, while his hours of danger nd fidelity, of bravery and of triumph, ill always make him a welcome guest herever ho goes. It was such feelings 9 these that actuated the great crowds aiting at the Union Pacific depot yes- rday, to welcome the New York veter- n fireman. Both the old volunteer and he paid department of Omaha, headed ¥ the Union Pacific band, marched to he depot at three *o'clock in readiness o give their expected guests a welcome cheer, The old’ Omaha firemen presented a natty appearance in their dusters and cream colored slouch als with their miniature silver helmet and silk badges, The expected train was fully an kour late, but the crowds pati- ently waited as it bent on the perform- pnce of a duty, and the band enlivened the tedium with occasional pieces. At last the looked-for train appeared; the reception committee of the home fire- men were drawn up by the side of the track, and amid the music of the band and the hurrahs of the multitude the train gteamed in. The New Yorkers were not Jong in alighting, and after tive minutes pent 1 introductions and hand-shakin :ver,vbuly felt at home, and the line of extended up arch 'enth street to Farnam street, and thence 0 the board of trade building. Along the line of march lusty cheers were given and the visitors felt their wel- come. They looked the exact type-of the old fireman, save that time in its hair- ghinning process had not left them the possibility of the well-remembered Mose Boap-locks. They were bufl-colored pan- taloons, red shirts and fire_helmets, and carried their overcoats of buff color on their arms. Cappa’s famous Seventh Fogiment band of forty-six pieces was rt its best and keeping time to its inspirit- ng strains made marching easy. The volutions of the band while marching, n which its ranks turned and twisted us on & pivot attracted much attention. One of the interesting incidents of the rocession was the appearance of A. ones, Omaha’s first postmaster, who no doubt contrasted its appearance with its size when its postoflice was 1n his hat. Arriving at the board of trade bmldl:fi the procession marched into the Cha ber of Commerce. Mayor Broatch was ntroduced in a few appropriate remarks y 1. W. Miner, chairman of the recep- ion committee, and read the following address of welcome : Gentlemen: In behalf of the city of ©Omaha and the veteran volunteer fire depart- gment of this city, it afforas me great flunllnt«wolcome you here. We extend you, in every sense of the word, the free- dom of the city, and assure you that our Jively appreciation of the services and courage of our own veteran firemen will cause us to extend & warm_greeting to their comrades of other cities. To them our latch Btrings are always out. You have jonrneyed from the great jmetropolis of this nation—traveling from the orient to the occident, and when you find yourselves upon the Pacific slope, you ‘will be so far west that if you continue your Journey you will be in the east again, hirty-three years ago Omana had no istence’ To-day it has a population of 100.000 inhabitants. Where the red man had his habitation and he buffalo ed, you now see the dwell- umerous people engaged 1n manufacturing, commercial and other pursuits. We feel that our own city of brilliant example of the thrift, enerzy and industry of the western Eoople. Our bank clearances for the past week were $2,785, 780,88, an increase of 33 7-10 per cent over .* corresponding period of last year; and tho deposits aggregate about $15,000,000 &t the present time. ‘We have room for more of everything that llFuud and our feelings are best illustrated ‘When we say, *‘We have a place for you and Yyour money."” Young as we are, we havo a listory, and Dot the least of 1ty chapters |s thai on the Volunteer fireman, .. ¥ MAalis: wime the hour or the weather might be, our fireman was always ready tore- #pond, and no danger was too great, Jabor t00 ardious, to pravent from dolng his duty. The onor and respect shown to the memorles of Randall, Lee, McNamara, Wilson and kockfehn. Wwho lost thelr lives in their efforts save life and property at the burning of ?unnd Central hotel will bear witness to s, I have a distinct_recollection of the old fire department of New York city; Ican re- guember when New York and Brooklyn com- panies attended tournaments at Hartford and Middistown, and 1 recolleot a mock murder trial of a celebrated case then agl- ting the public, which the firemen held N a steamer going down the Connecticut xiver. Twice in the history of New York city the volunteer firemen saved the oit: from complete destruction. Once in 183 hen fifty-two acres were burned over, de-, troying 530 buildings and involving a loss of §15,000,000 upon 1,000 mercantile firms, And again in when 300 bulldin¢s were destroyed, with a loss of §4,500,000and thirty- five lives. It was upon such occasions as these that the present veteran showed the i he made of and checked the dan- gerness to bo first at a fire one compan: would collide with another? It was the zeal we first looked at, and then the result. I fancy Iseein the eyes of you wentlemen the same fire and zeal which animated you in the days zone by. 1t 1s a reminiscence of de- ruwl glories; it is the same which you see n this city to-day in the reunion of old sol- diers, fiehting their battles over again and stimulating the young to future deeds of valo Speaking of old soldiers, the fire depart- ;imnt of New York city were the tirst in the jeld for the protection of their government; nd about the first victim of the war was the rave Ellsworth, the colonel of the New ork Fire Zouaves. As useful however as the volunteer tireman was in his day, he was but the ploneer of the &men\ system, which we must confess, 18 ore effective than the old; justas the breech oader is more effective than mu; onder with wuich the battles of 1560 and 05 ‘were fought. Who has not seen the double decker hand engine of the larger cities? A marvel of beauty in construction, but who would not to-day exchange 1t for the elogant steamer we now have? 1 have pumped at a hand ipe, but 1 confess to a parti ll{ itaam, Well, there is nothing like a frater- pal fecling, and it is because of that, we to- gny greet you as our guests, and taking you )y the hand, open our hearts, our hon and onr purse strings, It you need them. ‘Lo-day all that we have is yours: enjoy it. When ou leave us, we hope that the impression 6 have made will be indellible, and that on- yard through the pathway of life, Omal; d her firemen will always be rewmem: Tho address was reccived with markoed applause whenever any illusion was made to the old tiremen and their deeds daring, At its conclusion G. W. nderson, the president of the New York association, responded os follows: r ln‘gr and_ fellow counirymen of LY be kindly and affectionate greot- t:l‘ the chief uc*vul‘l‘v« of this oity fills the orl &k you for this cordi me.

(Applause. ‘e have under- taken "'f trip, for men of our 'f’] to cement the old friendships and associations among us, and to show the people what * is left of the old volunteer fire companies of Now York; the good health experienced by all so far warrants us in believing that we shall reach an Francisco in safety and return home all well. (Applause.) On our trip so far we have been the reciplents of continued hospi- tality and welcome, and in no place has it been more generous than in Omaha. (Ap- plause.) ‘I'hough our stay till be short among you, we will remember it with grati- tude and joy, as we trust you will always recollect us with pleasure and kindness. (Loug applause.) As Mr. Anderson concluded, Chief Gal- ligan stepped upon the stage in answer to Chairman Miner's summons, touching some matter of arrangement in the pro- gramme. His presence elicited loud calls of ‘‘Jack, Jack; speech, Jack; hear, hear.”” In response the chief pleaded his inamlity to make a speech, but he would say to the visitors that Omaha, though a small place, had big expectations, and its people ex- pected that some day it would rival New York. It would take a hundred years to produce the change but it would get there all the same. He had attended many varades and recep- tions in his day but he could say that he never saw a more_responsive KI‘EB“HR than that given the N, Y. firemen, Mr. Miner announced the programme for the remainder of the day to be a visit to the Casino for refreshments followed by a trip to Cut-Off lake to see the sham naval battle, Cheers were given all around after which the programme, as an- nounced, was carried out, GOssIP. Charles Fischer, of the old Omaha fire laddies, looked resplendent with his red shirt, gold badge and silver 0 trumpet. Peter G. Stupper, weight 266, is the biggest man among the New Yorkers and Baby Barnes the heaviest home produc- tion. Chief Galligan was indefatigable in his efforty to make everybody feel at home and he succeeded. Charley Morgan 18 the youngest man of the visiting fire men, aged 47; Fred A. Ridabock the oldest, Anthony Youman can lick any man in the party: he won the running ;riz in Franklin's hippodrome in New York in 1853. B. M. Sweeny is the Adonis of the New Yorkers, ~Eugene Ward’s old engine, the Guardian, Co. 29, was never passed during his nine year’s foreman- ship, Kugene is well liked by his com- rades, they say he is & widower, and a candidate for another wife. Joe H. Johnson is the artist among the visitors. He painted the figure on the box of the engine to be in the parade to- day. Xndrew Fisher, of 16 hose, alias “old humps,’’ is a coffee and spice merchant. He has been in one place of business for forty-three years. The boys say they will'get an injunction to restrain him from doing business there any longer, when they retnrn to New Yourk. The veterans are tuking care of 722 widows and 1,132 orphans of deceased firemen. Their dependent fund 13 $316,- 000. W. E. Bates, of Cappa’s band met an old friend in one of the representatives of the BEE. ‘The ladies with the New Yorkers are Mrs. Morgan, Barrett, Class, Smith, Levy, 1lalm Darrow, Ridabock, D, Anderson, S. A. Anderson and the Miases Pierse nnd. ener. They attended the reception in the chamber of commerce, and seemed pleased with events, J. B. Pond is managing the trip, par- ticularly the concerts by the band. William H. White, "Brooklyn Eagle, Mark H. Eisener, New York Journal, Hugh Slevin and E. F, de Camp are the guests of the party.

NEW Youk, Sept. 8.—[Special Telegram to the BEE.]—Mrs. Cleveland’s lefter declining to present the flags to the firemen because her husband was not invited to participate In the ceremonies, excited a good deal of comment at the city hall yesterday. Itis agreed on all sides that there was no inten- tion to slight the president, but it was by no means the unanimous opinion that the form of invitation was not disrespectful to him. Some said that the men who got up the invi- tation ought to have known more of the usages of polite society. The aldermen’s committee are in a quandary and don’t care to talk for fear of making the matter worse. 8 e Always Safe and Sure.

Owing to the previous good character of the vrisoner and the respectability of his parents, with the understand- ing that the money would be returned and that the prisoner would reform, Mr, Spellman declined to push the case, and after Judge Berka delivered a lecture on the evil resuits of bad assoeiates the pris- oner left the court room with both mem- bers of the firm,and will continue in their Bservices. —_— AMUSEMENTS.

Carlin and Marcelle Duprez are man and wife, They have been united in matrimony, and his honor Justice Kinne sealed the bond by kissing the bride. The affair occurred Saturday, August 27, at the famous Duprez ranche,eighty good,long, up-grade miles from Pierre. A nice, clean, respectable party of Mr. Carlin's friends from Pierre decided to attend the nuptials, and toss the tra- ditional old slipper after the happy couple just for luck. And a fine old party it was, too. Almost as fine as silk, and not a fly to be found on any of them, A start was made Friday afternoon and the party sailed across the river to Fort Pierre, where transportation was wait- ing them, and at 6 o'clock Willow creek was reached,where the night was passed. At 7 o’clock Saturday morning we got under way again, and without any noticeable incident our procession reached 1ts destination at about 4 o’clock 1n the afternoon. Duprez' ranch the scene of the festi- vities, is one of the best known land marks in Dakota. Sitnated on the south side of the Cheyenne river its broad and gencrous acres run in either direction Wwith the river, up and down one of the most beautiful as well as fertilo valleys that nature ever provided for man’s hab- itation. High bluffs on the north and south shelter it from destructive storms, large bodies of timber skirt the river on cither side while rich grasses and vege- tables obtain almost a tropical growth in the valley, and it is no wonder that Du- prez ranch has become famous for its picturesque loveliness and is known throughout the northwest as the ‘‘garden spot of Dakota.” Forty-six years ago Frederick Duprez, a Canadian of French extraction, sought the west for a suitable home and travel- ing up the Cheyenne from its confluence with the Missouri he reached this spot; being impressed with its natural beauty he made 1t his home where he has ever since resided and amassed his vast w«;iultb from the productiveness of the soil. For years he lived on in his solitude and seclusion from whitemen. Constant intercourse with Indians gave him a wide acquaintance among them, and during all these years it is not to be wondered that his softer instincts should occasionally be touched, or that he should finally be pierced by one of Cupid’'s darts instead 'of an Indian’s arrow. The woman whom he married was the grand daughter; of the chief of the “Two Kettle'’ tribe of Sioux. The old chief soon died, and the title de- scended to her father, who being of poor health died shortly, the only 1ssue ot his marriage being the present Mrs. Duprez, and thus it is the tribe has been without a chief ever since. Out'of respeet to his memory all heirlooms in the possession of the royal family, handed down from enerations back, ahd which an Indian Jealnusly guards, were“buried with his remains, and to-day marks the resting place of the Iast of the Two Kettles. After his marriage Monsieur Duprez settled down in hjs beagtiful home, and has enjoyed domestic happiness ever since. He has reared a large family of children nearly all of whom still abide with him, and to whom he is very much attached. In accumulating wealth he has been more than moderately stccess- ful as his present to the groom indicates, 500 head of cattle and fifty ponies. Mr. Carlin, the groom, is a young gen- tleman of fine personal appearance and address, cultivaten, and of an excellent family. His grandfather T. J. Carlin was governor of Jllinois in 1848, and ene of his uncles, W, E. ber of the Nhnois fegis ran for state auditor on the Carter Har- rison ticket the year following. An- other uncle is Colonel Carlin of the Fourth infantry at Cocur d’Alene and he 18 well acquainted in military circles himself, having been quartermaster’s agent both at Bismarck and Pierre. Upon our arrival at the ranche we wero greeted cordially and soon sat down to an excellent luncheon. And we were notflalone by any means. People had come from miles and mles around, among the number being many Indians, old friends of Mons. Duprez in the early days, until there must have been at least one thousand people present, the white tepecs of the Indians decorating the val- ley and presenting a very beautiful ap- pearance. At about 7 o'clock in the evening the ceremony was performed, one of the In- dian traditions being to the effect that all marriages must pe solemnized at the setting of the sun. On this occasion ex- tra precautions were taken to e the affair occur on time, owing to the dis- tinction of the contracting parties, Inas- much a Mlle. Duprez, by the Indians known as **Black Eyes,” is looked upon by them as their queen, and held in as much reverence. A large tent or tepee, of the finest tanned skins, had been put up for the ceremony to be performed in, The tepee was as white as the driven snow, and 1n place of wooden pegs to fasten it down with, handsome ivory handled knives were used to every one of which was tied a fine horse. Inside the tepee a sight of primeval grandeur met our gaze. In the vast tent nothing could be seen but decorations, skilltully arranged and artistically wronght. ~ In the center of the tepee was a handsome robe, beautifully worked in beads and other ornaments. After the guests had assembled, the groom was led forward and placed upon the robe or mat, “Ihen five couriers desvatehed to a smader tepee standing a little distance off, and the bride elect was brought Iorwnrl rcclinf ng upon a litter supported and carried py the couriers. She was gorgeously ar¥ayed in an Ori- ental costume, and (presented a picture of lovliness not soon/to 1be forgotten by those vresent. Uponentering the tepee all the Indians fell pronelipon the ground where th mained until the bride had been seated by the, gréom; when the; arose to their former (positions. Both parties had been seated facing the rap- idly disappearaing sun, and when the relatives had been admitted and had ranged themselves i semi-circle back of the couple, ‘‘Makes ‘Radm,’’ the medi- cine man of the ‘‘Fwo, Kettles,” who always solemnized /all marriages ad- vanced, and placing one had on the bride and groom’s head, addressed him- self to the sun and evoked 1ts blessing in utturel monotone, after which Mr. “‘Makes Room™ gave a horse to the poorest man present that he may always have reuson to look back upon the mar- riage day of the bride with pleasure. This present is always from the father of the bride, and is a custom in vogue only among the wealthier classes, Upon the completion of the ceremony within the Indians ranged theinselves around the tent and executed the green corn dance, after which dMr. and Mrs, Carlin arose from theirseats, saluted each other in the fom] old orthodox way, and were as firmly wedded to each other as all the laws of the land could make them. esired to make the THE CEREMONIES stepped forward and performed the cus- tomary Christian rites, when the couple repeated their salutations and received the congratulations of their friends. Shortly after the coremony the guests were invited to partake of the weddin, feaft. This was a mammoth affair an such an army of hungry feeders is seldom seen. To provide fur their wants a grand Larbecue was given, and ten fat oxen were killed for the occasion. These were served in excellent style by 100 wailers and furnished a feast fit for a_king.

I was cast for Iago. I went to the theater in the morning. Kean did not come.

I declined. He then ordered a gin-punch, and I could see by the marks on the table that the order had been given before. After drinking his glass he sat down at the lvi:mo and sang one of Moore’s melodies. 1e had a splendid voice and sung with great feeling., ‘At night,” continued Forrest. ‘‘when in the play I had tosay: “Look to your wife: observe Cassio. Wear your eyes—thus, secure.” As much as to say, don’t be too sure of her. At the same time I placed my face close to his and gave him a very meal ing look. Kean glanced at me in sur- vrise. After the curtain fell he came to me and said: “Young man, where did you get that idea from?” “What idea?” I asked. “The idea of lookiufi 8o intensely into my eyes when you said ‘or secure.”’’ “Why,” I replied, I got it from whero you got your great idea of acting—from nature.” Kean Fr:\spcd me warmly by the hand and said: ‘‘Young man, you will make a name.” “A few weeks after Kean was the re- cipient of a grand dinner in Philadel- phia, during which he drank to the health and prosperity of Edwin Forrest, and urged the assembly, as he said, toen- courage the coming actor of the day.’” The speech was reported, but the fellow that did 1t got drunk and lost the copy.
