The Boys Get Off Instead of the Days— The Plasterers Are Wrathy— Preparing to Elect a Constable. The Sleighing Carnival. Yesterday was the day of the great cleighing carnival, when the citizens of Omaha came s the river to enjoy for a few hours the hospitality of their friends and neighbors on this side. The weather was most inauspicious, as the air was filled with snow from early morning until after night set in. Des- pite the storm, about five hundred sleighs belonging to citizens of the Lyffs turned out to do honor to the vis- s, who were met at the er's bark and escorted through the city.

An expression of thanks was tendered to the citizens of the Bluffs for their velcome and entertainment, and an in- vitation given for aveturn visit, Three cheers were given by each party,and they all then adjourned to the Masonic temple, where dancing was indulged in. During the whole afternoon refresh- ments were served in the dining hall of the Ogden. Several of the guests re- turned to the other side of the riv early in the afternoon,owing to the increased violence of the storm, although some remained in the ecity over night.

This timeitis the reputation of the fire department which suffered. Pete Kuykendall, foreman of No. 3, thought so much of his day off that he got even further off than the day, In the evening he visited No. 4's house, of which Neil Vorhis is the foreman. There has been alittle bad feeling ¥ tween the two, but this did not at first crop out. Kuykendall showed much intevest in the ne am being trained there for fire service, and was given permission to show a little of his horsemanship. He succeeded in getting one of the colts straddle of the ongue, and at last an iron hook got caught’ in the horse’s log so as to tear the skin open. Voorhis concluded mat- ters had gone far enough and ordered Kuykendall to des The latter was in that condition when he felt himself to be as good as anyone, and he didn’t have to. As Voorhis started out for an officer, Kuykendall gave him a push, whereupon Voorhis closed oue peeper for him and sent him to grass.

Hail, now confined in jail here, was without doubt the thief who had been yorking the Pullman palace cars through Wisconsin, but that the com- pany had no clear case against him, and merely wished to keep himoff their lines. They had given ail conductors orders to examine their trains every night and see that he was not aboard. The advertising in the Police News was more for the purpose of showing him up through the country than for having him arrested. There was no reward of- fered for him, and the chargesof swind- ling, for the recent confidence games at the transfer, ave the only ones which will be brought against him at the pres- ent.

San Francisco Call: The first thing that strikes a visitor to San k o0 is the prevalence of wooden residences in place of the substantial stone or brick domiciles of the eastern ci For some reason our people deem it neces- sary to offer all sorts of imaginary es cuses for this difference between our dwellings and those in the east, when, in fact, no excuse of any kind is neces- The earthquake theory, so often propounded, is simply absurd, for we never had a shock here that was strong enough to seriously affect a properly constructed building, of whatever ma- terial it may be built. Still more ab- surd is the iden that our: red wood is a safeguard against the spread of fire. The truth of that matter is that we have a most ex- cellent fire department, and that to our firemen alone is due the absence of ter- rible conflagrations. Painted red wood exteriors, sugar pine doors and_ sashes, cedar trimmings and Oregon pine frames and doors can searcely be con- sidered the proper material to resist the flame The reason for the wooden houses is easily enough found, and is 100 sensible to need fictitious support. The cold winters and hot summers of the east malke it desirable that dwellings skould be of a substantial character. Here, on the contrary, there are no extremes of climate, and a wooden residence supplies every need for comfort. Further than that, out here there is more comfort to be obtained in wooden houses than we could find in structures of stone or brick. That is to say, with a very slight outlay for fuel, as compared with the east, we can keep thoroughly warm during the winter, while the slight structure of our wooden houses permits an amount of window glass space that would be utterly lm practicanle in heavier buildings. n abundance of sunlight isa great tactor of health, and no houses in the world ave so blest in that respect as ours. The mere fact that practically every one in San Francisco s in a n house is proof positive that such houses are best adapted to the climate— for were they not so, we would find a preponderance of more solid structures. That money has never been lacking here is shown in the extraordinary cost of many of our dwellings, although, of course, an enormous aggregate sum has been saved by the differences between the expenses of wood and cut-stone. To begin with, wooden houses were cheap; experience proved them to be in ev respect comfortable; fashion decreed that they were the proper nung for vesidences, and therefore our rich as well as poor dwell in wooden house There are any number of private dences in this city that have cost fo construction about 50,000, while there are numerous instances where the cost for the building slone has been any- where from $100,000 to $250,000. Then again, look at the cost of our wooden apartment buildings. The Pleasanton, for instance, could not ha been built for less than $175,000, the Laveage for £150,000, and so on., Y will occasionally find some millionaive who will build him a dwelling of stone or brick for the novelty’s sake. But you may accept it as an’_absolute cer- Tainty that the uml for all time will be, exce Why should a man waste his money upon a structure that will bring him less comfort than a heaper ono u! the same size?

Away from this city in a place where no one knew him- Feuret felt comparatively safe. He worked steadily, secured the good will of his employers, and managed to amass a snug little sum of money. Feuret fell in love with a pretty French Canadian, well connected, and married her under the name of Charles Chest- nut. His wife had been in New York and liked the place. At her request they left Montreal four months ago and settled in a neat little flat on Kast Seventy-nminth street.
