Lixcors Bureav or Tug Ovana Bes, | 1020 P STREET, Lixcory, Oct. 11, § The special water committee of the city council met yesterday afternoon to sitin special scssion on the new well which bas been dug in Fast The first question to be decided was, very naturally, whether it should be used for water or vumped out and turned into & gold mine, or Lincoln, used as an inexpensive source of natural gas supply for the council chamber. The sug gestion was also made that possibly if the natural gas indications w followed up “ile' might be struck. The debate over the question was long and bitter, but it was finally settled by Dean, who said in an ex pressive voice, “We nced water.” That settied it r Commissioner Lyman, whom the cspondent has 80 unjustly criti cised, gave the opinion that the well, if prop erly developed, would furnish 1,000,000 gal- Yous per duy. The plau he would advocate would be to sink a twenty-foot well forty. two feet to sand rock and from there drills could be sunk. Horizontal tunnels should also be driven into the hill to the cast. He did not claim that this well 1d give a complete supply for the city even now, but thought the city could afford to put in other pumping stations when more water should be need All the committee except Cooper agreed in developing the KEast Lincoln well and a roso lution to that effect was passed. The well robubly thus cost an additional $5,000 Coun Iman Cooper looked into the twenty foot Iast Lincoln hole with a_pessimistic glance. e thought it would not yield over 500,000 gallons per day, and would soon give out. “T'ne tost will now be made. Probably it is best that it should be so. The citizens desire to get water from the ground in th if possible, and they would never be si The ving the managemont of the home of the friendless, finished their session yesterday. The following oflicors were clected for the ensuing year: Re- cording secretary, Mrs. Coover; correspond ing sec iot; treasurer, Mrs, Helmer; financial seeretary, Mrs, Parrish. A new board of managers for the home was also chosen as follows: Mesdames Davis, Hardy, L. G. M. Baldwin, C. C, Mun son, McCreary, Babeock and Dr. Sophronia Lane.

The stato convention of the Nebraska Bap- tists will bo held in Lincoln, October Delegates from all the churches of the state will be present and the occasion will be one of no swall importanc TIHE Y. M. C. A, BUILDING, An increased activity has been observed lately in the Y. M. C."A. circles and it is hinted that the announcement of some defi- nite move towards the ercction of the long- talked-of Y. M. C. A. building will be the re sult. It 18 something of an adverse commen- tary on the liberality and business and chris- tian entorprise of Lincoln men that the mag- muficent offer of John R. Clark has remained 80 long unseconded. Lincoln should have had her Y. M. C. A. building completed long before this, It has not yet been commen but one thing may be said very safely, will never be started earlier. Lot it be com- menced as s0on as possible. A DESERTED WIFE, In the district court yesterday Grace O'Brien filed a petition for “a divorce from her husband, Michael O'Brion. Ten years 8go she marrried him in & little Illinois vil- 1age, trusting with all her heart in his vows to love and cherish her. But Michael was as other men. He forgot the light vows which his lip had spoken, but his heart had not heard. In plain English he often got drunk. He abused his wife and ‘threatencd ber life. He deserted her and 1eft his family without support. Since 1885 e has not iived at home. One child 18 the {ssuc of the marriage and the wife asks the custody of this. Under certain circum- stances a divorce court is a good thing, but sometimes a gallows would be better. NOTARIAL COMMIBSIONS. ‘The following notaries public wero com- missioned yesterday: M. W, Stuckey, Plum Creok, Dawson, county . Creigh, Omaha, Douglas county Central City, Merrick county; H. T. Arnold, Osceola, Polk county; John Stuffer, Colum! bus, Platte county. THE A. 0. U, W. BXCURSION, The Lincoln lodge, Ancient Order of ‘United Workmen, will go by special ex- cursion trains to-morrow over the Missouri Pacific to Omaha, where they will attend the reunion of the order at that place. KEx- tremely low rates—three quarters of a dollar per head —were secured by letting the vari- ous lines bid against each other, The trains will leave the depot at 8:30 o'clock. AN INTERESTING CHARACTER. Mr. Dennis Osborne, who spoke in the city last night, is an interesting man. He comes from India and is accompanied by his son, a boy of perhaps fourteen years. Fo is aking & tour of this country speaking and focturing on the customs of ' his mative country. His son, who is & very sweet singer, intersperses his father's talk with swoot Indian_melody. The couple went on the Missouri Pacific to Nebraska City yester- day, where Mrz Osborne spoaks to-night. DIOCESAN CONFERENC ‘The diocesan conference of this Cathollo diocese met yestorday as announced. Thirty- five priests were 10 attendance, five being ex- cused. A building committoe on the bishop's resi- dence, members of the diocesan court, and trustees of the fund for infirm priests were appointed. The matter of immigration into the state was discussed and the bishop em- wered to appoint a commitiee to look aftor is matter. The members of the bishop's council bave not been appointed. Bi Bonacum is chairman of the committees. The bishop's house will probably be built early in the spring. CITY NEWS AND NOTES. ‘The case of the Missouri Pacific railway vs John P. Young, error from Cass county, was filed to-day in the supreme court, Judge Stewart to-day issued a marriage license to Olaf Anderson Lindt and Mrs, Caroline Watson, both of Lincoln. Zenus O.

The Odd Fellows will fall in line with the great procession a week from to-day with an excursion to Omaha. It will cost only a dollar per head the round trip. The paving contractors are working hard to get their work into shape before frost. Last night the hum of the block sawing ma- chine could be heard far into thenight. This evidence of good intentions is something new and particularly grateful to Lincoln citizens. Attorney General Leese went yesterda Stella to address the voters of that vicinity, James Richardson, of Eagle, was taken home by Constablo Doby, yesterday. Rich- ardson has lived at Eagle for some years. Ho is & good specimen of the restiess, to- bacco-stained, unciviliced frontiersinan, Some days since he bogan to gather his fam- ily and goods together to go, as he said, further west, where clvilization would not ress 80 heavily on him. The family ob- jected and a domiestic row occurred in which ® nogro who sided in against Richardson, narrowly escaped being killed. Riohardson will be tried for assault with wtent to kill.

For citics of the sccond class no such pro- vision had been made, presumably because such cities have not usually a large fund to expend from. All rules, though, have excep- tions, and here in South Omaha, thoush a city of the second class, we are metropolitan in the number of saloons, having about sixty which pay a license of $500 each into the school fund. September 1st we had about £0,000 in the treasury and now it is down to about $20,000. Most of this money has gone for the purchase of scnool sites at extrava gant prices and some buildings, One mem- o the Editor of ber of the board is reported as saying that the board took legal advice and was informed that they could under the law spend the money for “'school purposes’ as they pleased Another member said he believed the moncy was paid in for the purpose of paying it out, and he thought it was a good plan to pay it out as quickly as possible. I do not mean to say that any crooked work 1s being done by the board, hut know some real estato agents here are ia close communion with the board and are receiving commissions on the pur. chuses made by the board. We should like your opinion, Mr. Editor, as to whether we have a remedy or not, something shouid be done to call a halt to this work or we shall have no money to pay our teachers next spring for it must be borne in mind the en tire saloon tax for the year has been paid and the state apportionment is also paid, so the present fund is all we have, until next May, to work on AN INTERESTED TAX PAYER.

AN ORATION BY OSCAR WILDE. Description of the Artist's Magnificent Tribute to the World's Greatest Poct—How It was Designed and Carricd Out. Shakespearean Week in Stratford. |Copyriaht 1388 by James Gordon Bennett.] STRATFORD-ON-AVON, Oct. 11.—[New York Herald Cable—Special to Tne Ber,]—This is Shakespearcan week. Next Sunday a Shukespeare statue is to be dedicated on the Boulevard Housmann, the gift of an Fnglish gentleman. Yesterday there was unveiled here a statue of Shakespeare—presented, designed and executed by Lora Ronald jowen, brother to the duke of Sutherland It has been several years in preparation 1t is entirely Shakespearcan in character, with a lifesized figure of the poet on a ped estal, and four of his greatest creations— Hamlet, Lady Macbeth, Falstaff and Prince Hal—at the sides, It is placed on the grounds surrounding the memorial buildings, within a few yards of Shakespeare's residence. The pedestal is Bath stone, sixteen foet high, and claborately carved. A lifesized bronze figure of Shakespeare surmouuts the figure, ated. The face bears aj striking resom- blance to the portrait shown at his birthplace, Th effect s ren- dered more striking by the sculptor having adopted the doublet covered with the loose, sleeveless gown which distinguishes the portrait. The poet's gaze is directed towards the church, where lie his remains, The tour Shakespearian figures stand on projecting bases, Hamlet is scated with a dejected havior of the visage, musing o'er Yorick's skull. The other scated figure is that of Falstaff. An empty wine cup isin the left hand, the right raised with the for finger extended. Tady Macbeth is repr sented rubbing her hands to remove the in- dellible blood stains. The face is hard and cruel, but a shadow of romorse s in it. Prince Hal is putting on his father's crown The memorial is decorated with four laurel chaplets and faces, typical of comedy and tragedy. It 1s a gencrous tribute of a true artist tothe poct’s fame. The contrast at present betweeu the white Bath stone ped- estaland the bronze figures is strong and striking, but time will mellow the stone and bring the whole into more complete har- mony. There was an_immense gathering, many coming from London and the large provincial cities, but the multitude were from within a radius of twenty miles. The monument was gracefully unveiled by Lady Hodgson—wife of the mayor of this city, who is a daughter of the chief justice of New South Waies— amid chee nd mu: Sir Arthur Hodg- son, the lord mayor, who was once an official in Queensland where he made an immense fortune, felicitously accepted the statue, pleasantly seconded by Philip Cunlift Owen of Kensington museum. Oscar Wilde, the orator of the day, made a terse and poetic speech. Lord Ronald Gower made a few modest, neat remarks in thanks and then a large number of invited guests were given a princely luncheon by the mayor in the pic- ture gallery of Memorial hall. Miss Ada Rehan dominated the entertainment gor- geously dressed as Katherine, that is to say her portrait by Ailary Ball recently presented by Augustin Daly looked down upon the table, surrounded by pictures of Mr: ddons, Mrs. Charles Kean, John Philip Kemble, Faren Phelps, Edwin Booth, ete., ete. George Augustus Sala responded to the toast, ‘“I'he Drama."” Lord Leigh, licutenant of the county, spoke for “‘Shakespeare's Birthplace,” and remark- ed: “Since the visit of Ignatius Donnelly here our people have read more about Bacon and loved Shakespearo better than ever.” Oscar Wilde recited an ode written by Mrs. DeCourcy Daffon, of Stratford, four lines of which, referring to the bronze figures, read thus: Heard Royal Henry chide his self-crowned heir, ‘The guilty queen moan for her white hand stain, Or Falstaff troll some roystering refrain, Or Hamlet play with hisown soul's despair. After luncheon ended I interviewed Lord Ronald as to his work. He said: “I began the work in 1835 and, although I exhibited these Shakespearcan groups some few y ago in the Paris salon, they have just rec ly been cast in bronze. It will interest Americans to know that I first con- ceived the idea when walking in Central park, New York, with my dear old friend Sam Alard. I then saw an excellent monument to Shakespeare erected i the park. It was infinitely finer than anything we have here. I always felt it disgraceful that in his own land, and more, in his own birthplace, Shakespeare had no statue ex- cept that wretched oue in the church aud the equally nartistic production given by Car- rick, which is placed outside the town hall here.” Did you originally conceive of a mouu- ment such as the present one?" “No, not quite, My first idea was only to have the poet's statue. I did not propose, then, the surrounding groups, but now, as you see, [ have added Hamlet representing Philosophy, Falstaff comedy, Prince Hal his- tory, Lady Macbeth tragedy. You will see that each figure bears an appropriate wreath and allegorical plants. For instance: Lady Macbeth holds poppies emblematicof sleepand blood; Hamlet cypress and vy, representing mouruing and eternity; Falstaft holds a vine and hops, and Prince Hal the rose of Eng- land and the lily of France.” **Where and how was your work done?" “‘My entire work was done at my studio in Paris. 1think I may say I devoted the best years of my life to it, for I began when I was thirty years of age. I gave up everything to it.” “Why did you choose Parist" “Because in Paris one's surroundings aro 80 much move artistic. Thore 1s the Louvre to inspire one's imagination. Besides, I went there to get away from my friends. Had I remained in England social seductions would have prevented me giving my work suflicient time. You asked Lhow I worked, Well, I stuck to 1t steadily, sometimes as long as three months at a stretch. Each of the figures took a year to complote. As each was completed it was exhibited at the academy here or in the Paris salon. When the whole was finished in plas- ter a committee of the salon did me the great- est honor ever conferred upona foreigner, They placed the statue and groupe in the center of the jardin, which position had be- fore ever been reserved for a national work. Later on the statue and groups in plaster were exhibited at the crystal palace." “1s it true, as published, that the whole work cost you £10,0001" Lord Ronald seemed rather taken aback b; 80 direct a question, but after pausing, re- plied: ““Well, I would rather not have said anything about the money part of it, but as it has appeared in print all I will say is that they have Lit very near the mark. The work has been carried out by some local stone- masons of Stratford-on-Avon, and the stone is of the same as that from which the memor- ial building was made. The fuuds for the pedestal were obtaiaed by Sir Arthur Hodgsou and the duke of Manchester, Tam only responsiblo for giving the bronzes. 1 would like to mention-that, in modeliing the figures, 1 was given most valuable assistance by an Italian of the name of Madressi," I may add that Lord Ronald is a p larly handsome man, very fair beard and moustache, He might have held @ high political position in any Enghsh cabi- net, but so strong is the artist's instinct in him that he relinquished politics and other flelds where hie would have beon welcomed in or der to give up his entire time to art and lit erature. He has beea success in his chosen path in life, and the magnificent work un velled yesterday must hand him down to pos. terity as one of the most brilliant scuiptors of the Victorian era, iout- and wears a il Canada Bristling Up. Torosto, Ont. Oct. 11.—The Empire, the chief government organ in Canada, asks: “Has it ever happened in the history of the 1d thatone country took such liberty with the possessions of another as the United States are taking with Canada, without hav- ing first resolyed upon going to war with the msulted nation ! After a long argument in tho negative it says: “Weare 5,000,000 British subjects, and al though in the past we have submitted pa tiently to United States interference by wethods more offensive than language well express, the time has at last arri when, on both sides of the international boundury, fair-minded men must agreo that the dignity and honor of both countries de wand an abandonment of the attitude which convoys a standing insult and menace to the Canadian dominion.” - Preparing for William.
