Cooper & Judson, (Lot Attempted Train Wrecking. Yesterday morning it was discovered that ap attempt had been made to ditch & train on the Chicago & Northwestern at the Indinn creek bridge near Twelfth street. The would-be wreckers had re- moved ten bolts from the center of the bridge, leaving about seven and a half feet of track unsupported. Two trains passed over the structure in this condi- tion, but fortunately with no worse result than sprln;}ing it considerably in the middle. he parties were evidently novices at the busiuess, with but little knowledge of bridge buildmf. although to remove the three-and-a-hulf-inch burrs from the bolts, which were over four feet long, they must have been supplied with an extraordinarily large wrench. The depression of the bridge was noticed just aticr the arrival of the morning express about 9 a. m,, and had the mur- derous wretches succeeded in their dnstardly attempt, the loss of many lives would undoubtedly have bad to be charged to their account.

A. Beebe SISTERS' HOSPITAL OPEN, A Modest Start With the Promise of a Useful Fature, TALKS TO THE RAILROAD MEN A Dastardly Attempt to Wreck the Northwestern Passenger Trains— A Trotting Trial—A Ruralist Confidenced. Among the Railroads, Rev. Thomns Mackay's agdress to the railrond men at St. Paul's Episcopal church Sunday evening was a very able effort, und the large congregation pres- ent were well repaid for their attend- ance. . ‘The modern locomotive was regarded by the speaker as the perfect embodiment of the leviathan, described in Job 41. The tendency of the present age is to snnihilate time, and we are, essentially, o fast people. Under only one condition can the average American take his time; on a dining car going at the rate of fifty miles an hour. 4 When the inventor of the locomotive claimed for it a speed of ten miles his Assertions were laufihud at, yet five or six times that speed 1s now regarded as standard time. What are the possibili- ties of the future? As we recline in the luxurious sleeping car how often do we think of the clear brain and steady hand that is guiding the iron horse as we rush along through the darkness like a meteor through space? Has he only done what he is paid for doing? Is he not entitled to our heartfelt gratitude? Had his vigi- lance relaxed .for a single monient what might have been the result? The culvert washed out by the swollen stream, the broken rail, the bridge destroyed by the unscen fire are all dangers that must be averted by the constant watchfuluess of the en- gincer. What are our feelings as, after the shrill scream of the whistle for ‘“‘down brakes,”” the heavy train comes to a stop, we go forward and find the trucks hanging over a deep gorge? Would we not kiss those grimy hands whose prompt action has prevented our headlong rush to certain death? Nor are such acts of bravery and heroism confined to the engineer. What were the feelings of that switchman as he threw the lever, that the loaded train might not leave the rails, rather than, in obedience to the paternal promptings of his heart, snatch his little one from before the fast aporoaching train? Was the struggle between love and duty any the less fiu.ter hecause, in obedience to nis command to *‘lie down,”’ the train passed over her in safety? But it is not that the world may see and applaud, that these acts are done. These heroic men_ climb the slippery cars, or make the dangerons couplinfi in the midnight darkness, and die witl no one to see them except their God. Give them the praise that justly belongs to them. Of- tentimes pootlv paid and robbed even of their sleep, give them a plasant word as you meet them, and do what you can to make their lives easier. To the railroad men I would say, you need re- hgion. There is no class of men, unless it is the soldiers, who need 1t more than youdo. Carrying your hves in your hands as you do, not knowing at what moment you may be called upon to meet your God, 1t especially behooves you to be ready at any time., Religion will also teach you faithfulness to duty, and without that you ean never succeed. The establishment in this city of a boarding house and reading room for railroad men was advocated, as the saloons are the places mostopen for them in their business hours. A tenor solo was rendered by Mr. I. M. Trainer, at the close of the address, with pleasing effect. - — Opening of the Hospltal, ‘The Sisters of Mercy have rented the large building belonging to John Haw- thorn, at the corner of Fourth street and Ninth avenue, and are now occupying the same as a hospital. 1t 18 the purpose of the Sisters. not only to care for the sick, but to provide a home for virtuous girls who, through no fault of their own, are thrown upon the world, and for want of proper training and education are unable to obtain situations. Such girls will there be taught to broperly do housework, or if physically incapacitated for such employment, will receive in the sewing room such instruction as will en- able them to comfortably maintain themselves. The building is already par- tially furnished and more will be added as needed. When 1n full running order the sisters will be able to care for from fifteen to twenty vpatients. The three large well lighted ward rooms will each accommodate five cots, berides which there are two private rooms. The build- ing will be known as St. Bernard's Hos- Rhnl. being named for Rev. Father Mc- lenomy, to whose unceasing labors is due its location in this city. The need of such an institution has long been ap- parent and the sisters will doubtless continue to receive the hearty encouragement with which they have met thus far in the way of coniributions. Patients who are sble will pay for their care. but none will be refused on account of poverty. No discrimination will be made on account of religion, and the privileges granted by the Sisters will be very liberal. Their work is a noble one, all, especially those having sisters or daughters, will appreciate the efforts thus made to prevent young girls from falling into the meshes of the net constantly set for them by the human bloodhounds with which every city is infested. The large number of railways center- ing here make it neccessary that there shall be a conveniently located and well arranged hospital for the care of the vic- tims of accidents of various kinds. This city has long felt the need, and the hospi- tal enterprise will be welcomed, and gladly supported. The Sisters have al- ready a firinly established reputation as excollent nurses, and the public needs no assurance that the hospitul will be so wua‘Iy managed as to meet the varied needs, - Chautauqua Assembly, Council Blufts people in their past ex- perience have good reasons to be satified that encouragement at the proper time would have produced results in our city's interest and history not to be computed. We cannot fold our hands and expect the good things of this world will come our way of themselves, for those that are worth the having cost money and effort, and is it not a wise principle of business policy to invest a dollar that five may come of 1t? We cannot always make our caleula- tions of immediate returns in public in- terests involving such a feature as the Chautauqua assembly, but it is unques- tionably one of those things that com- mends itself to the intelligent judgment of any unbiased mind that the welfare of our city is closely identified with its re- sults, not only in the near future but with increased value as 1t bacomes more firmly established. Chautauqua, N. Y., has become noted wholly on account of its assembly and as a summer resort, one which the intelli- gent and cultivated seek first in all our land. This same thing may be ours if wa only will to have it so.

The city fathers were rather tardyin putting in an appearance last evening but at 8:156 o'clock President Lucius Wells, in the absence of Mayor Girone« weg, who was home on account of the sickness of his wife, called the council to order.

Seidentopf remonstrat- ing against letting of grading contract to C.R. Mitchell on Graham avenue and South First street upon the grounds that he was not the lowest bidder, and claim- ing his own bid was the lowest, it being ;gll' either cash, certificates or bonds. ile, Resolution asking for $4,214 in war- rants in favor of Weightman & Miller for building intersection sewerage upon the estimate of the city engineer, was re- forred to finance committee with power to act. A resolution was passed ordering a 30- inch sewer built on Thirteenth street be- tween Kifth avenue and Union avenue. A resolution ordering Sixth, Seventh and Eighth streets graded between ‘U'enth and Sixteenth avenues was read. This caused a hurried_consultation be- tween Dunforth and Keller, and Keller asked if that wasn't a good deal of gr ing to order done. He thought much grading should be done but was afraid the city could not pay for it. Alderman Wells showed that there would be only three intersections for the city to pay for. Keller asked that it be allowed to lay over. Lacy thought now the accepted time. Upon eall of roll Danforth and Keller voted nay, while Lacy, Metcalt and Wells voted aye and in consequence the resolution was lost. The contract between G. S. Lawson and the city for building the patrol wagon honse was n‘gruml to and the mayor authorized to sign the same. The city engineer asked the council to advise him as to the proper method of ing for the Fourth ‘street sewer. city attorney said if the engineer would report it the council would refer it to a committee. The engineer said the report had been made in detail and had been referred to the city attorney, which the records showed, It was then referred to the committee on streets and alleys to which the city attor- neg will make his report. Jity Attorney Holmes said that it was the first time any reflection had been made upon him by any of the city offi- cers. He wished to make his report to the council at once, that the assessment for the kourth street sewer should be assessed to the property on both sides of the street. The cause of all this discu from the fact that a sewer alr through the alley west of Fourth s and in the build n arose cet, o of the Kourth street sewer the cf pngineer had left out the house connections upon the west side of the street for the reason that that side already had connections with the er in the alley, The city attorney said the legal part of the assessment would probably be de- cided in the courts. ‘I'his is the same subject that caused such a discussion be- tween Alderman Lacy and the city at- torney a week ago. ——— Trying the Track. At the driving park yesterday L. Holst, driver of Modoc, and J. J. Shea, with Bessie S, had a trotting race. Modoc won in three' straight heats, the time being 2:57, 8:01, 8:034.

One Costjng $2,500 Good KEnough for Jay Gould, New York Sun: The one subject which piano dealers and piano manufactures and workmen in piano factories have been talking for the past few days is the ano said to be on_its way to America or Mr, Henry G. Marquand, with five figures following the dollar maik in the invoice thus: $46,050. No such price as $46,950 was ever paid for a piano before, but no nrnrlmz will venture to say that no one will pay so much again. “What do you think about such a piano?” said a reporter to an up-town dealer. ‘‘Had you arrived at the age of matur- ity before the war of the revellion began,” said the dealer, ‘“‘and had you been of a cynical disposition at that time, you would have been interested, not to say astounded, at the large sums of money paid as income taxes by men in this town, It gave one notoriety to pnz a large income tax, and no one was debarred from paying as good a tax as he chose, Perhaps a piano could be built with that sum, but it would have to be inlaid with gold and have the mono- gram set in diamonds before the bill could honestly call for half as much as that.” *‘What, then, do the elegant pinnos of the men of great wealth costy"’ *‘Ordinarily from $1,500 to $2,000. Mrs. Jay Gould bougnt one recently that cost $2,500. 1t was an upright grand and just as fine an instrument 1n everything that Zoes to make a piano as ever left the fac- tory of one of the best known makers in the city. C. P. Huntington has recently purchased a piano. His cost £2,000,while Judge Hilton, andther mullionaire, got one not long ago for which he paid a little more, $2,200, I believe. Now these instruments were the very best the work- men couid produce. The puilders knew, of course, that it would help them to sell fine pianos to other families if g such people as these had their make of instruments. The choicest woods, seasoned to the exact dot were used in the cases; extra quality of cloth worth $18 a yard,where the ordinary stuft used 18 worth from $5 to $10 went into the actions; the ivory was selected from perhaps a hundred ‘dif\erent tusks, and so on from the castors under the legs to the varmish on top, everything was the best. The monograms were worked out in gold or antique metal, or some other expensive stuff, and when the instru- ments were set up in the parlors of the purchasers there was a richness to the tones that would enchant any one. And the tone was there to remain; such an instrument will last won- derfully. But, fter all, you ean get just as good an instrument,one with precisely the same tones and one that will last just as well, for less than half the money paid by Mr. Gould. “Still more expensive pianos can be at cost The late Captain James B.
