The most delicate fruits 8tood upon the hucksters' stands, and horscs on cars and private veliicles were bathed in perspir- ation.

Tho exerct were held in the church prover, and consisted of an address by Mr, Gifford on the origin of Christmas, followed by a sbort talk by the Rev. William Hayden of Chicago on the effect of Christmus, point- ing out the influence of Christmas and its at- tendant services on the Christian world, as red with the entire mbsence of such co in countries whero the gospel is not generally recognized. Little Miss Nettio Lancaster gave an ap- propriate recitation in a very pleasing man- ‘This closed that part of the entertainment, and a_grand rush was wmade for the Sunday school room below, waere a large sloigh load or Christmas things were in waiting. Candy, popcorn and nuts were distributed generously, and more substantial gifts in the shope of books, toys, etc., were also issucd o the joyful crowd of young children and 'those of riper years, At the Theaters, Boyd's opera house will be the scene of a very gay and showy attraction, the same being Rice & Dizey’s *Pearlof Pekin,” with its first production in Omaha.

Never in its history was the Omaha post- office s0 badly flooded ns it is at present, not ‘with the aqueous element. but with Christ- mas gifts. Monday and yesterdsy the corridors of the ~ building were crowded with people impatiently waiting with _bundles D their armws to see if they were within the four pound limit necessary for their transit through the mails, Two policemen were needed a greater portion of the time to keep order and see that everyone held his proper ‘:hu:a m the line. Finally Mr. Woodward ad to put a deputy at his window to weigh the purcels while he stepped out in the corri- dor with his scales aod threw bundles off and on the balauces as fast as he could re- ceive them, The clerks in the malling department were almost in despair at the sea of bundles great snd small before them. There was almost everything col ceivable weighing four pounds and less wrapped up aud sent as u messerger of joy to some heart, There were albuins, slippers, bouks, fancy work, sllver ware, boxes of candy, toys, cigar boxes and a wilderness of odd-shaped bundliss whose interior could not even be guessea. The clerks worked like peavers, hardly taking time to wipe the beads of perspiration that gathered on their brows. For a time yesterday it was feared @ ofice could not be cleared before Saturday, but by noon the fow of gifts began to lessen and the clerks hope to et all the bundles on thew journey by this evening.

Mayor Broatoh’s fotter announcing the approval of of several ordinances was the first subject considered and was spproved. Then a second communication from the chief execu- tive aunouncing that he had vetoed the ordinances providing for the grading of Thirty-second street from Pacific to Popple- ton avenue, and to stop the work of filling ourth from Woolworth avenue to t, was approved by the council, od that as the funds for this purpose were exhausted operations shoula be stopped until the preseat council's term of oftice had expired. St. A. D. Balcombe, chairman of the pourd of public works, sent in a letter s ing that he was in doubt regarding the amount due the Barber Asphalt Paving company for repairs under the contract of 1880, and thoir bill of £1,400 was referred to ty atlorney o have u claim against tho k done, and threatened to suo unt. City Attorney Webster re- ported that ho could compromise for $500, and was instructed to sectlo on that basis. The bonds of Mayor-cleet Cushing in the sum of $25,000, with H. W. Yatos Paxton and Joseph Garnoan, Jr. and that of Polic z0-elec the sum of &10,000, C. C. Clark, . B, Johnson and Fred Nye as sureties, were ap- proved. A communication from Chief Seavey an- nouncing that since March 50 fines to the amount of $181.33 had been imposod on mem- bers of the police, and asking thatthe same be turned into the polico relief fund, was re- ceived. ‘The council declined to act and the watter was referred to the committec on police. A lengthy petition from residents along Ames avenue regarding street car servico was read. The petition asks that the Omaha strect railway company be required to run moter cars each fifteen minutes from Six- teenth to Thirty-second streets. The matter waa laid over, Councilman Whesler wanted the surplus material belonging to the city at Ninth and Howard streets fonced 1 to prevent its being stolen, The matter was referred. Tho board of public works was ordercd to cause troct sweeping contractors to clean all ts included in their contract before win- ter sets in, at a cost not exceeding 10 por cent of the net cost, including use of machinery. The amount’ due Lienjamin . Buker, the superintendent of the old city hall, §1U8.85. was ordered paid, after which the special ap- propria‘ion ordinance for December, amount- ing to £25, wus passed.

AM The Omaha Guards laid aside their mili- tary habiliments last night, donned the garb of burnt cork artists, and appeared as min- strels in a programme of fun and frolic at Boyd's overa house for the entertainment of their friends as well as the pecuniary venefit of themselves as an organization. The show opened, as all minstrel shows open, with a first part, revealing some thirty or forty members of the company all blackened up aud looking like real professionals.

Reed, H. T. McCormick, V. S. Purleizh and M. Rheem, They had a ¢ood number of spicy jokes that were_well cracked und several clever songs well sung. In adaition to what the end men said ard did B. L.

Reed _had res their topical songs: “I Ought to Be ' ful for Inat.” »1 Loaned My Sun day to Maloney,” “Many a Time” and Very Old.® The rest of the programme consisted of singing, dancihg and other specialty work. A. B, Campbell gave a sabro drill, William Marsh and_George Hydoa banjo duet. Ed Hafley a clog dance, H. B. Mulford a cornet solo, and C. H. Goodnouih a drum so0lo. One of the most pleasing feat- ures was the quartette singing by Robert M. Weir, Walter Dale, B. S, Searle and . Aitchison, The performance ended with a burlesque entitled “The Oolab, or Brigands in Clover,” in which Stepuenson, Reed. Rheem, Lucy Daie, Colfax and McCormick displayed thetcselves as actors. During the show quite a severe accident occurred to Lyle Johnson, oue of the guards. While walking about the stage he stepped off into the elevator shaft and fell to the bottom, a distance of twelve or fifteen feet. Ho sustained a fractured foro arm and was badly shaken up. He was carried into a drug store across the alley ana had his hurts attended to by a physic: Had it not been thut the entire “Pearl of Pekin” company attended “McCarthy’s Mis- haps,” it would have been given to a very small audience at the Grand opera house, These visitors drew quite an audience for Christmas eve, and the show was well re ceived, An Absolute Cure.
