A. building was laid yesterday afternoon with imposing ceremonies atthe corner of Douglas and Sixteenth streets. The ceremony began at about 5 o'clock, and was witnessed by a large con- course of people, The history of the progress made by the Y. M. C. A. in the erection of this building has been a most interesting one, and shows on the one hand the earnestness of the man- u}:mqnt of the association, while on the other it displays the devotion and liber- ality of the leading merchants and pro- fessional gentlomen of this city. The result will be the mngn“{- cent structure which has been determined upon, on which Messrs. Mendelssohn & Lowrie, the architects, have displayed some of their finest work, The Y. M. C. A. was incorporated in 1868, Watson B. Smith being the first resident. He was succeeded in 1870 by Dr. J. C. Denise, who remained at the head of the institution uutil 1877. The presidents from that time until the pre- sent have been as follows: Rev. W. A. Lipe, April, 1877, to January, 1879; William Fleming, January to June, 1879; P.S. Lemenrmgw.hme. 1879, to Novem- ber, 1830; W. . Pelt, June, 1879, to October, 1881; P, C. Himebaugh, Octo- ber, 1881, to October, 1885; arren Switzler, November, 1885, to October, ‘The present oflicers are P. C. Hime- baugh, president; J. L. Kennedy, vice- president; C.

Leisenring, The advisory committee are: H. W. Yates, A. J. [’oplflewn, George A. Hoag- land, G. W. Holdrege, and Hermun Kountze. The order of ceremonies were as fol- lows: Music by Union Pacifie band. Praver by the Rev. C. W. Savidge. Address by Robert Weidensal, genera! western secretary Y. M. C, A, Address by the Hon. J. M. Thurston. Report by Financial Secretary J. E. Ensign. Laying of the corner stone by the vice presi- O gine, “Prajss God From Wh Singing, *Praise ‘rom om Bleu?n s Flow.” Al Benediction, the Rev. Dean Gardner. Music by Union Pacific band. On accotint of the sickness of Mr. Hime- baugh, the presider.t of the association, J. L. Kennedy, the vice president, was made master of ceremonies. Mr. Weidensahl said that the 1deca of a Y. M. C. A, in Omaha was first sug- gested in 1866 when a flood of men were pouring through this gate city to the opening west. ‘T'he first meeting was held in Dr. Babcock's oftice, where the Millard hotel now stands. In 1867 they erected a building that they were de- lighted to call their own. It was through the efforts of the Omaha Y. M. C. A. that an international association was estab- lished, the first session being held in this city. The present efforts of the associa- tion were deserving the appreciation of the young men of Omahaand the hearty support of the community. He predicted great things for the Omaha Y. M. C. A, in the future. The next speaker was Hon. John M. Thurston, He said: Since he crossed the Missouririver eighteen years ago he has seen the city increase from 15,000 to 100,000 souis. Shanties have given way to magnilicent palaces of brick and stone. Manufactures have commenced and prospered. Busi- ness has marvelously vrogressed. Won- derful school edifices have sprung up on every side; while an almost countless number of church spires pierce the eager sky. The city has grown from a rough pioneer town to a metropolis that for en- terprise and morality is not surpassed by any city in the known world. The west is ‘the homo of the young men of this country. Young men have bmlt it up, have civilized it and made it the land of promise. Through this gateway is pour- 1ng a constant stream of the boys of the land. They have left home, friends and associates to carve out their futures and their own prosperities. No paths are so productive as those of industry, morality and religion. These lead up to prosper- ity. 1 believe in the divine doctrines of the lonely Nuzarene who trod the shores of Galilee. I believe in an over-ruling, all-wise God, [ cannot be- lieve that the incomprehensible wonders of the universe came by chance. There must be an almighty power that rules the destinies of nations and of men. I be- lieve that this continent was saved up for the establishment of a nation blessed with liberty and equality. I most heartily be- lieve in the guidance and dictation of a supreme God. The pilgrims loved the principles of liberty. They maintained and dignitied labor. They were sternly moral and religious, and beheved de- voutly in an all-wise Providence. [t is this faith and this love of liberty that leads us onward and upward to-day. 1 have noticed that boys who have grown up in Omaha are &,’unil. industrious, law- abiding and God-fearing young men How many of them could credit this ass ciation with ennobling their lives none could tell, This new building as long as it stands, will say to all governments and civilizations that there is equal liberty and equal nights for all who practice public and privtae viatue. J. E. Ensign, the financial secretary, made a report setting forth the following figures: ‘I'he building will cost $75,000; pledged, $36,000, of which $39,830 was collected, while $20,000 more is needed. In the recess of the stone were placed, where they are suppositiousiy sealed for- ever, or for a mighty long time at best, drafts of the constitution of the association, photographs of their first president, Watson B. Smuth, and the present oxecutive, P. C. Himebaugh, and copies of all the daily papers pub- lished in Omaha. KNIGHTS OF FPYTHIAS. Preliminary Arrangements for Their Reception in Omaha.
