The agitation of tho question of brick pav- ing, and the consequent investigation of its merits and tfe material required, have re- vealed the fact that suficient brick can not be supplied by the yards now established and also that the quality of the brick heretofore turned out has not been up to the standard, The result has been to cause steps to be taken to establish a largo brick yard in or near this city, for the special purpose of turning out first-class paving brick in very large quantitics. Partios from Chicago, Burlington, Omaha and Council Bluffs have become interested in the scheme, and capital to the amount of §50,000 will be fortheoming from these cities tu establish the plant, if certain preliminary arrangements can be made as desired. One of the projectors of the enterprise informed Uik Bre yesterday that ail the encourage- ment they desired was that contracts for about 7 vards of paving should be let this year, 1 which case they would go ahead immediately with their work. Tho plant now in operation at Lincoln cost 000, but a better one cau be built here for less of Lincoln ordered 175,000 yards of paviug to induce the brickmaking plant 10 locate there. Brick 1s selling there for £10 a thousand, and it is stated that the same price could be duplicated here, At present the contract is let for about two thousand yards of paving, and there are about half a million brick the city, which would just about suffice to do this work. The council has just ordered about twenty- five thousand _yards additional, but the ma- terial to do this extra work will have to be purchased outside, unless arraugements can > made for the establishment here of this The projectors ask that con- e let for about three thousand yards in addition to that now ordered, and guar- v that it will not be necessary to go out- side the city to find material, as they will furnish all that can be used. They can not, however, furnish it this r, a8 it would be near the' close of the season before they could get in running order, but the contracts must ve let this year for work to be done next season, in order to assure them that there will be a home market for their brick, which would be ready for use in 1560, It seems to be a foregone couclusion that there will be littlo more block paving laid in this city, as it is rotting out too fast to give general satisfaction, and the action of the mud und water, which get under the blocks, makes the cost of repair raver in excess of what the property owners are inclined to relish, It is conceded that block paving malkes one of the best drives that can be put down, and the Bluffs has been very fortu- nate in securing sowe of the finest jobs of this kind of work that have been done in the country. This, coupled with the fact that not yet been extensively many warm o sup- cedar blocks. argament that has been made in behilf of the brick paviug is_that the money for paving material, whick in- variably awounts to a very cousiderable sum, 15 kept at home. Such, at least, would be the case, if the plant sbove referred to is established here. Then awain, there is far less trouble to remove brick ' paving to make repairs to sewers, gas pipes and water mains, and the paving can be relaid much more satisfactorily. With the block paving it is necessary to remove @ section Sixteen feet long, 1o matter how small the intended xcavation is to be. so and many more arguments are ard daily iu favor of the brick, and its ad- vocates are rapidly increasing in numbers. The paving laid on Willow avenue last ycar is pointed to as an example of the superior advantages of the brick. und yet this pave- ment was only laid as an experiment and the bricks are not of the hardest and best qual- ity. The matter 18 one of considerable financial importauce to the property owners of the city, and'a careful investigation should be accorded by them of the compara- tive merits of the two ma e e Special sale in children’s white and colored dresses this week at Friedman’s. e No Explosions When persons keep cool and use our “Sun Dial” gas stoves.

Investigation reveals the fact that the little songsters are the genuine seventeen-year locusts, and they have arisen from the sand 1n such numbers that they almost equal the leaves upon which they feed. 'The luxuriaut foliage, the ballay air and the bright sunshine drive them wild with joy, and their music can be heard & mile distant from the bushes. In the even- ing, when the sand commences to cool off, the ground is literally covered with them, At no time during the periogical visits of these strange insects has the number ever beem greater in any locality than they are here, and the fact that they cannot be found anywhere else in the covntry is not a little rewurkable. The, willows especially seem to be their choicest food, and the young and tender twigs are being ravencusly harvested by the shrill-voiced insects. Specimens captured and examined are found to be the true lo- cust, with the cabalistic “w"” on their wings. In many places twigs half an inch thick have been cut off by the hungry littie fellows, and the portentious “w" is certain 10 mean war ou the willows, at least, e Fine jowelry, watches and dismonds; cleaning aud repairiug at B.

Yesterday was one of the hottest Sundays experienced in the Bluffs, thus far this year. The meroury skirmished around in the nine- ties from early in the morning until nearly sunset, and there was not enough air stirring to concentrate a bushel basketful of coolness inside of the limits of a whole block during the entire day. It was a red bot day and everybody knew it. The congregations of the various churches discovered the fact early in the day, and the preachers found it out shortly after arriving in_theiwr pulpits, and gazing down at tho deserted pews. At none of tne churches were the congre- gations very large, although all who at- tended seemed to find the hoaees of worship about as cool and comfortable as did _their less devout neighbors the luwns and back porches, where they passed the earlier hours of the day. It was impossible to find any breezo to speak of, andafew square feet of dense shade wus as near an approach to comfort as any of the seekers found. As if by common consent, attention was turned at @ comparatively early hour toward the electric motor line for relief. Hundreds of people rode up and down the line, a good many crossing the river as often as four times, seemiug to find mors comfort in that way than could otherwise be ob- tained, and it is fair to presume that thay would have continued it all day, but for the fact that shortly after noon travel became 8o rushing and the cars so crowded that transit by motor was divested of the little comfort that had vreviously attended 1t. It was absolutely impossible to accommodate all who desired transportation, and scores yere left by every train at either end of the ine. In the evenmng the greatest rush ensued, and the trains were packed almost to suffoca- tion. Extra trains and extra cars were put on, some of the motors puiling two loaded coaches, and were kept running until very late, Many of the passengers, as proviously statcd, made the round trip, but there were thousands who did not, and the question that was constantly asked was, “Where do they all got A single glance at Bayhss or Fairmount arks or Lake Man- AWa would uve answered the query with indisputable correctness. Almoct from sunrise to midnight Bayliss park wus full and running over. k bench was filled and hundreds were stretched out on the grass in every position imagina- ble, oblivious of everything except their own personal comfort. 1t is safe to say that never before has Fair- mount park contained such a liberal represen- tation ofOmahane as visited 1ts windlng drives and walks and countless shady glens and sequestered nooks yesterday afternoon. Hundreds saw and admired its beauties for the first tine, while many could not muster up the necessary courage to climb the bluff, and regretted that the electric motor line extension was as yet incomplete. Had the motor line been completed and electric_cars been run into the park yesterday, 10,000 would have been a very low estimate of those who would have visited the place. How much patronage the company is miss. ing will not be known until after the line is in operation. S 1f everybody spent the day in Fairmount park all their relatives must surely have gone to Manawa, for in no other way could such a crowd have gathered there, onel TReed, of the Manawa motor line, thought he had sgen some protty good days before, but was convinced of his mistake, and remarked shortly after midnight that “Sunday is go- 1ng to last until the middle of the week this time.” At the hotel the rush was tremendous, Judge Robinson, the presiding genius, el- bowed his way to the front as each motor stewmed in, gasped for breath with which to ask, “Is this tbe lastof ‘em?” aud it was then difficult to get sight of hun until an- other whistle was heard. Everybody wanted a bath, and some of them were not particular how they got it, whether in the conventional way, via the bath house, or by tumbling overboard back- ward from the deck of a steamer, if it so happéned that they eventually landed in the water, **Why, you may not believe it, said the proprietor of one of the bathing estab- ments last evening, ‘‘but it is an actual fact that they wouldn’t wait for the suits to dry. It wouldn't take long in sucn u sun, but they were 80 crazy to get into the water that s s00n @8 @ BUiL Was wrung out there was somebody right there to put it on. That is the way it has been going all day and you sce the water 18 alive with them now. Every suit we have is in the water. Our receipts to day will amount to between $150 and §200. I guess Manawa is all right.” Notwithstanding the heat all seemed fairly good-natured and the day passed without any serious rows or dificulties. Every train roing toward the lake was filled until after 10 o'clock, and it was 8 o'clock before all had been brought back to the city. Scarcely any arrests were made and taking it ail around it would pass for quite & model sum- mer Sunday, 527 B'dway. Carringes in A. A. Clark —— Money loaned at L. B.

SHE MET HIM. IN HIS COFFIN. To His Cold Olay She Made Her Vows of Love and Crowned His Pallid Brow With Wreaths, She's In the Asylaum Now, One of tho oldest undertakers in San Francisco, formerly & member of the firm of Cowen, Potter & Co., recently told an xaminer reporter that he would not exchange occupations with any man in the state. Said he: “I tell you there is a singular fascina~ fion in ministering to the wants of the dead, in placing over them garlands of flowers, nicely arcanging their white faces, and laying their pale bodies in the last casiket.” The old veteran went on portraying the pleasures of his pursuit, and as he gave the DETAILS OF HIS WEIRD VOCATION he grew into an ecstasy not unlike the reveries of an opium eater. Continu- ing, the undertaker said: xperience has taught me that fa- miliarity with the dead takes the sting from the grave. My business puts death in a less terrifying light than the pictures which the imagination draws where the actual is seldom witnessed. I have put so many in their last homes that I no longer look upon death with the old fear. I agree with theman who said, ‘Tired of the heat and glamour of the ‘day we hear with joy the rustling garments of the night.” I look upon every new face that comes into my quiet sleeping apartments over there as onemore lucky traveler who has reached at last bis journ end.” “Does it not pain you when the body of a lifelong friend is brought into your parlors?” ““Oh, my boy,” smd the veteran, with the gruesome manner of the grave-dig- gers that prate over Yorick’s skuil in “Hamlet, 1 see that you do not unde stand what I have been telling you. Welil, it does not surprise me, for no- body but an undertaker can have any iden of an undertaker’s pleasures. Of course I do not like to have my (riends suffer, nor do I enjoy having them die, It makes the world lonely and makes tombstones out of life-long comrades, but when afriend is dead 1t pleases me very much to give him every attention. He becomes my guest, and it pains me if any of my servants neglect him or do ANYTHING TO MAR HIS VISIT. There is, afterall, a quiet pleasure to know that your bést friends do not have to die, that aching hearts arc forever at rest in the everlasting sleep.” ‘Do you ever have favorites among those whom you did not know during life?” ‘‘Very often, indeed. I have had people come here' and I felt from the first glance that I would love them for their winning ways.” “Well, sir, I like modest people with frank countenances, whether in life or death. Some corpses have mean coun- tenances. I would have declined an introduction in life, and so I do not cultivate their society in death. Some seem to stave at me, while others look like sneaks. A dead man’s face is a good photograph of what he wasin life, and it has the advantage that no trick of an assumed expression can deceive the eye of the observer. ““There are lovely men and women who come here, and when they leave us we miss them and we feel lonely. It give me great pleasure to pin a little bouquet upon their garmepts, or to ad- just their heads upon their pillows. They often need these little attentions, and they seem pleased when we are kind to them. Of course, they never speak, but there is golden eloquence in their silence. Different positions of their quiet faces give a language to them, and a slight change in _ attitude makes the contour and whole effect dif- ferent. ‘Let me tell you about a young woman who used to assist moe where I formerly lived. She made handsome bouquets and garlands during her leis- ure, and she also kept the entry books. “That girl had much good philosophy on the subject of death. She liked to read about the old Greeks who dressed their dead in white, sand odes 1w im- mortality, and placed floral decorations on their tombs. “I often noticed that she spent many IDLE HOURS AMONG THE COFFINS after the bodies were prepared and -properly clothed. T, of course, thought that she was simply studying the busi- ness and trying to learn how to make what we call artistic settings, for she was always in love with the business. “One_day her affianced=for she was engaged to a young lawyer—came in to chat with her a few moments. He was a bright young fellow, and they were to be married in the fall. He had been coaxing her to leave the business, but she would not doit. Well, this was a delightful June day, and-as he left she pinned a neat little ' bouquet upon the lapel of his coat. Not noticing my presence he lightly kissed her on the brow and departed. This did not seem to trouble her, although I noticed that she blushed as her sweetheart departed. Idonot know whether that kiss of- fended her, but I know that she seemed troubled for several days, and after Lawyer Ralfe left her the next Friday I noticed that her eyes were moist. I believed that they had gone through a little lovers’ quarrel, and I thovght no more about it. At least I did not have the slightest suspicion of the wonderful alienation of her affections that was taking place. “The next day the bnd{ of one of the bandsomest young men 1 ever saw was brought into our'parlors. He was un- known, but from” pupors found among his effects it was ascertained that his family lived in London England. He had been out huhling, and, getting sep- arated from his companions, the gun was discharged, ‘the charge entering his thigh. He soon bled to death, O course you know that he would be very ale. ; ¥ “Two efficient#ids in my establish- ment hetped me to prepare the corpse for the cofin.

I then went home to dinner, and I was gone several hours. When I returned the girl was working over the face., She made a handsome wreath and placed it over his brow. Then she fairly raved about his beauty, When I came back in fifteen minutes she was still there, and she seemed to be talking to him. I heard her ask him 1F HE STILL LOVED HER.
