Thera aro a number of splendid opportunities just present to seeure new manufacturing indus tries and action upon them will be asked. The Rock I[slana project is so near ace tainty that it is the prevailing opinion that a little active work is all that is required now to see the conmstruction work commence. Prosident McBride reccived a communics tion from Ashland to-day stating that a com- mitteo from that place desired to accompany the Lincoln delewation to the conference with President Cable, of the Rock Island, at Fairbury this week. it Ttis a Curious Fact That the body is now moresusceptible to benefit from medicine than dtany sea- son. Hence the importance of takin Hood’s Sarsaparilla now, when it wil do you the most good. It isreally won- derful for purifying and enriching the blood, creating an appetite, and giving a healthy tone to the whole system. Be sure to get Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which is peculiar to itself. ————— HE PREACH TO HIMSELF. Rev. Mr. House Speaks Upon Sunday Baseball and Other Preachers. The Rev. T. M. House preached a sermon Sunday eveningin reply to an interview with him by a Herald reporter in regard to Sun- day baseball playing, in which he was mis- quoted, and also took up the cudgel against the Rev. Charles W. Savidge, who has given areprimand from the pulpit for the senti- ments expressed in the published interview. He announced his text from L Peter, iv.,5: “And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves, for charity covereth a multitude of sins.” “T expect,” began the speaker, “to say what perhaps you do not expect to hear me say to-night.” First of all, I'm going to preach a little sermon to myself from the text I have named. In the exercise of christian charity we evince the spirit of the christian roligion. Find a professed christian who does not possess tho spirit of Christ's charity and you will find a hypo- crite. As christians we should possess the fruits of the spirit, such as love, peace, etc. A do-nothing Cristian is no Christian at all. We do not pretend to tell you what your par- ticular duty may be, but you have a duty to perform. We are called upon to exercise our Christian graces daily. We are exhorted above all things to put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness, St. Peter calls charity the grandest trait of Christian character. Let us define charity. Fi charity has the desire to sacrifice itself; second, it has the desire to benefit humanity. Sacrifice in some form or other is the impulse of love, both human and divine. Love give; it does not hesitate, does not stop short of the line marking the possi- ble from the impossiqle. He who is capable of judging what a Christian minister’s po tion ought to be to his fellow-man, nover will question that position unless in a charitabe manner, Charity may be cultivated by con- templating the goodness of God. One who wishes to become a painter studies the works of great masters, one who wishes to become ~ an orator studies the man- ner and thoughts of recognized princes of the realm of oratory. So in contemplat- ing the gooduess of God we are brought into olose councection with the gentie Christ. ‘When you ask ministers of the gosble to be- come detectives agd prosecutors of crimin- als, T ask you, give me the instance where our Lord Jesus Christ did that. Give us more of the love of God, and when we meet a wretch who has violated law, -instead of serving him with a_warrant from the police court, show him brotherly sympathy, ¢ tend afriendly hand, give him to feel that you are a friend to him, and have the desire 0 do him good. But when ministers of the gospel become prostitutors of their divine office by going uto dens of infamy and peeping through cur- tains at tho polluting sights within, it isa pitiful sight. God save us from such con- temptiblelittleness! The speakor then mentioned the fact that his sentiments with respect to Sunday base ball had been misrepresented, and that the interview with a reporter for the Herald ‘was not correctly reported. In this conneetion the reverend gentleman also read alettor from a fellow minister ‘while he was on his hunt in the Rocky moun- tains, calling his attention to the article pub- lished in the Herald, and asking in the name of the ministers here for an explanation, “1f 1am hela responsible to this meeting of preachers,” continued Mr. House, “God pity mo! This article has been published by all'the leading papers of this country, and has oven gotten over the sea, and I am her- alded abroad as the champion of Sunday sports. “The young gentlemzn who wrote that,” continucd Mr. House, “I think dia not intend to do the harm caused by the article, for he, since I returnedy stated to me, in the presence of witnesses, that the articlé had misrepre sented me, and was very sorry he had not reread it before publishing it. *Had our would-be Talmage prefaced his remarks with an ‘i’ I would have had noth- ing to say, as it is written in the good bool ‘Answer not a fool according to his folly." When I said in answer to the question as to what my position was with regard to prose- cuting the base ballist for Sunday playing, as proposed by the evangelical alliance, wi “1 am not & member of that organization,and if L was, I would not favor such action. We have ofticers of the law who are sworn to en force our laws, and it is not the business of mini ot thlo gospel to become detectives or prosecutors of criminals, The commission from heaven does not read that way. They are to be the bearers of good news; the pub- lishers of peace.” Bossey, e FOR A Or ARKET. Farmers and Gardeners Moving to Secure a Location, A meeting of representative farmers and gardencrs who depend upon Omaha for a market for their produce, was held yeste day afternoon at the storé of the Emerson seed company ou Fifteenth street to talk over aud act upon the subject of & city mar- ket place. A temporary organization was formed with Henry Eicke as chairman, and I, T. Emerson, secretary. Those present made remarks showiny the *need of a city warket, how uime was lost and much nco venience resulted from the lack of a plac centrally located where their products could bo displayed for sale, not altogether for the consuier, but for the dealer as well, who would have the advantage of a large assor! ment from which to select bis stock. A res olution was unanimously adopted to petition the oity council for 4 market house, one that would be adequate for tha demands of a growing city, and thut meanwhile, until stch a location as might be deemed favorable by the ceuncil should be selected, the thorough- fare of Capitol av; between Thirteenth aud Sixtecuth strocts, be designated as a temporary market place.

United States Uourt, Judge Brower, of this circuit of the United States court, arrived in the city yesterday from Leavenworth, Kan., and will preside at this bar durmg the present week. During his stay the regular court calendar will be sot aside and some cases that are to be tried before the two judges will be heard. The case of Fant ac inst Lincoln was argued yestorday and i now in the hands of the Jury. The case was begun last Friday afternoon and has occupied the attention of the court since that time. Owing to the fact that the appropriation from the government for witness fees in this court is almost oxhausted, and thore is no more money in the treasury for this branch of the court’s expenses, the probabilities are that the term will be brought to a close very s0on unless a spocial appropriation is_made to moet the exegencies in the case. United States Marshal Biorbower has telegraphed 1o the authorities in Washington to sec if money can not be obtained from a special ap. propriation to allow the work of the court to be continued. BARADA CLEARED. The case of the United States against An- toine Barada, the half-breed, indicted for horse stealing on the Fox reservation was finishod yesterday afternoon and a verdict rendered clearing the prisoner of the charge against him, District Court. There was even less of an appearance of progress in tho trial of causes in the district court yesterday than there was the opening day. Judge Doane called the assignment but every caso assigned was continued for another weel. The cases on the assignment were all against the city and the continuance was duo to the fact that the attorney for the city the various casos will be occupied during the week in the United States court, REFORM SCHOOL CANDIDATES, Johnnie Cover, Dora . Harmon and Jamos Collins were arraigned bofore Judge Groff as candidates for the reform school. Young Cover was charged by the state with potit larceny, having stolen #4.75 from a man named Wagner. He plead guilty to the chargo. His father appeared with him and stated to the court that he had no control over the boy; that he would run away from school and wid bocome accustomed to taking what did not velong to him. The father acknowledged his inability to control the fourteen-year-old lad and the court ordered that he be taken to the state reform school at Cearney. The young man weakened under his mother and good-bye the K this scutence and when father were bidding him the scene was too much court and he reversed his decision dered the fatber to take the boy hom and givehim one more trial for his free- dom. James Collins was charged with3being in- corrigible, disorderly and fightor. He has been before the court before and released. His mother asked for his release again aud stated that she would send him at once to the fathers’ school for boys at Desplaines,’ 1L, where he would be under such restric: tions that he would come out a man and would be better cared for than he could be at the state school. The court ordered tho boy ta be taken to the train when his mother came with the tickets for to send him to Llli- nois. He was sent east in the afternoon. Dora E. Harmon, a girl fifteen years’ old, who has wandered from the straight and nar- row path, was next arraigned on the charge of being incorrigibfe and a frequenter of houses of ill-fame. She plead not guilty to the charge, and said thatshe was a_married woman, and that her husband is_now in jail under indictment for bigamy, His name is Scharbeno, He was tried in police court about six weeks ago, and sent up. The state holds that he has a lawful and wedded wifo now living, and that the Harmon girl is not his wife. She stated that her husband had been married, but was divorced from his wife, a_mayor of a Minnesota city having granted him the divorce. As tho girl’s parents wero not in court the case was continued until this morning and her parents were or- dered brought into court to answer for her. A CRIMINAL DISCHARGED, The case of the state aga under indictment for the la of a team of horses the first of last November was dis- missed at the request of the county attorney. The court ordered the prisoner released from custod The case of Brown against Stevens was resumed before Judge Hopewell and par- tially argued to the jury before dinner. EQUITY DOCKET CASES.

The Narrow Fsoape of Mr. Joff Rey nods as Told by Himself—An Indian Crippled For Life by a Grizzly Boar. — A tow nights sines, whils tho rain was pouring Aown thick and fast, a notable group of men sat in ome corner of the office of one of our prome iment hotels. They had met by chance and were renswing old acquaintances and telling their ex- periences of narrow escapes in the western wilds. The group consisted two mining prospectc of an old, trapper, 2 and & cowboy, They had Just settled down after a hearty suj I{\N‘. and the 0ld trapper started in: “It was in the winter of 7% that 1 set off on snow-shoss, accompanied by an Indian, to a small lake in northern part of Dakota, t0 fetch some fish oaugnt the previous autumi, which lay frozen in a log_cabin on the shore of the lake somo ten miles off. We took & train of dogs and caloulated to return before dark, We had proceeded about six miles, when the Indian who was in advanca, paused and appeared to see some footprints In the snow, afier a_moment's scrutiny, he rose and said, that a bear had passed not long bofore, and could not be far off, and he wanted to follow it. T told hiim to follow, and I would bring the dogs in his track, as the bear was going in the direc- tion of the lake. The Indian started away with his gun, and was soon lost {n the woods, “For a uarter of an hour I plodded on, occasioually stopping to listen for some sound from the In- dian. At last [ henrdthe dischargo of his gun, and immediately atter hy Then all b mé silent, and 1 concluded that he had killed the bear, and that I would soon come up and find him skinuing it. Just then however, I was_sturtled by a flerce growl, and_ seizing my rifie, I rushed forward, A loud roar from the bear as he_ saw me coming caused me to look up, and as T did, my snow shoe caught atsomething.and I pitched forward, necidentally discharging my ritle as [ fell.
