THE OMAHA DAILY BIE: WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 26, 1890 HE SLEEPS IN FOREST LAWN The B ains of the Late Judge Bavage Buried with Honors, FEELING TRIBUTES TO HIS MEMORY, TLarge Number of the Friends of the Deceased View the Remains Beneath a Canopy of Stars and Stripes. The funeral of Judge James W. Savage took place from his late residence, 412 North Tywenty-sccond street, at 1 o'clock yesterday aftepnoon, There was o very large attendance of the friends of the deccased, and the Loyal Legion and Douglis county bar association were present in respective bodies, The remains rested na heavy red cedar casket, covered with black broadeloth. The beavy silver plate with the name of the deceascd and tho date of his bicth and death was the only metal in view, the trimmings all | A boing ered with tex fabric. The cas- ket and the pedestals on which it rested were almost hidden under a profusion of floral tribute: A large shield was the offering of the Harvard elub,and the Omaha club ten- dereda beautiful pillow. A Targe pair of floral scales was the tribute of the bur association, and tne Loyal Legion oftercd a very beautiful shicld.” Countless other offerings were those of personal friends, and filled the space available both on and around the casket. The house was entirely too small to admit the hundreds who gathered to pay their last tributes of respect to the_deceased, and but a very siall percentage of them could secure admission. They filled the lawn, and ex- tended to the sidewalk. The Loyal Legion was drawnup in double file from the side- walk 10 Lhe entrance, and ouly the guard of bonor entered. Rev. Dr. Harsha opened the services with the veading of several ages of scripture, and was followed by Dr. N, M. Mann. . N. M. Mann, pastor of the Unitarian church spoke as follows: “Our city mourns today one of her most distinguished citiz & man ly beloved and honored. As gather reverently about his dust and think that we shall nevermore look into his living fuce, or receive his gladsomo greeting, o pain- ful sense of personal loss comes over u: life scems sensibly the poorer. There many things to be said of him whi be said now. Of his patriotic and ¢ vices, of his honorable professional car his kuowledge of letters and of art, of his rare social gifts, we shill be told, I trust, in the fitting time 'and place. He was one’ of the men whom the world caunot afford to forget—a man of resources, not_found want- ing when the occasion calléd, 1f he had any wealk snots, they were not apoarent. Ap- proach himon which ever side you would, you found him ready and respons “But my thought of Judge Savage now is of the upright citizen, the kindly friend and nelghbor. [recall the manly presence so gracious 0 behold—the generous, liberal spirit that strack names in realities, and suf- fered no good thing to pass without his sym- pathy. His was the kind of Christianity which we all delight to honor, Where hio was we all were brethren, for, with one hand upon the old, with the otirer he welcomed the new. His face was set forward, and bathed over i the sunlight. No ono who knew him stopped toask what church he was of, but deep down in our hearts there was a feoling that ho was of the church universal. There 13 mo sect but that would have been proud to count him among its adherents, and none that respected him the less for not being able to count him, T have seldom known a man who seemed to meso little of a sectar- hlm and at the same time so much of a Chris- tian. “*Noble 0s was the style of this man before the world, [ more than suspeet that the finest side of him was seen in the privacy of his home, reserved to the eyes of the innermost clreleof all. Into that home-circle it has been given to some of us to look, and to per- colve something of the sweetness and hght he shed about him _in this sanctuary of his dovotion. It has been good to see and it is blessed to remember. At this moment, as 1 think of “the exuberant cheerfuiness of the man as I have known him, of his buoyant heart and ready, unfailng wit, Iscem to sce all this swelling up through 'a burdey of physical sufforing thatnobody knew anyihin g about. Of this intimate revelation of his character his own pastor can speak better than I, but T must say to me it seems in fine keeping with the spirit of the old precept in which the Master enjoins upon the disciples _8 that they should not in fasting disfigure their faces and indicate their suffering, but rather mssume & cheerful alr, that thoy might not appear unto men to be fasting. Blessed de- ception which thesaints of allages have prac- ticed upon the world, unwilling that a should suffer in their woes ! ‘“T'he time is short and our words are nec- essarily few. Death was Kindly : it took our friend. but only when disease had so cruelly dealt with him thathe was glad to go. He has done his work, and it has been a work full of significance. He has left a fairsample which we shall dowellto emulate, but which few will be able to equal. He has won a place in many, many hearts, whore, though dead, he will live in perpetul and hallowed remem- brance. Ihave heardhis requium suug by young and old and in unexpected places as 1 ave ;])mu«:(l up and down the city. And this word I can bear to her who sorrows most and whose long watchings at that bedside of pain aro now oyer: ‘This is a public bereave- ment; the general sorrow is only less than your own, and hearts are not wanting that wouldgladly share the acuter anguish.’ " Rev. Mr, Hamba spoke feelingly as fol- lows: *‘Itisu provision of nature, because it is an arvangement of providence, that souls stayed upon God should die in peace. When a man has fought his battle nobly, and fin- ishedhis course triumphantly, andkept his faith sincerely, itis not so much to close his eyes to earthly scenes as wo sometimes im- agine. It isonly to open them to the brighter scenes of the botter world. It is but to Jay off the armor and take the diadem and the crown. 1t is butto heave thesigh atthe \ eveuing hour, that full breath may be taken — for the singing of the eternal morning. The life of the man is everything, his death fol- lows as simply and cogently as rest follows toil. T\vl-n!‘y pues are needed to tell of Abrahum’s li o ut one verse is suflicicnt to i— . describe_his death. Solomon’s caveer con- < sumes thirty chapters, but his decease is noted in a single line. So will it ever bewith God's noblemen of faith and endeavor. “You will all agree with me that one of these lies in silence, so far as his bodily part 18 concerned, before us today, Omaha's old guard has another vacant place, Out of her galaxy of legal lights a bright star has faded. Humanity has lost an advisor, the state & counsellor, the poor & ready hel per, you and Ia warm-hearted friend and brother. In public life ho was wise, consistent and incor- ruptible; 1 social lifegenial and eminently courteous; in private life, unaffected and affoctionate,. Weall loved him, and out of our loves we would need to form a composite photograpl to have a complete picture o his multiform character. He was much to those who knew him _slightly, he was more end more to those who came within the inner and holier rings of his loviug soul. How fitting that one so true and good should die in per- fect peace. He wrapved himself more and move fn the quiet, saintly devotion of his father, who was a minister of the blessed gos- l, and lmd himself down to pleasant reams. We all loved him, and we may love him still. He isnot losttous. Ouv of the calm, blissful Lifoof the future heis saying with' bis old time heartiness, “come up hither.” TLetus follow in his footsteps as he walked in those of Christ. His last words were words of love to the partner of his life, His last words were these: ‘I shall go, trust- g for morey in Christ our Lord.’ " The exercises were close with a fervent priyer by Dr. Husha. On account of the lack of room in the house, the casket was borne outside, where a flag bad been raised to form & canopy, and under that fisting covering it was placed, while the hundreds by whom the deccased had been beloved in 1ife, filed slowly by it to 10 take their last view of the remains.” The sillkon eolors of the Loyal Legion were then thrown over the casket by Commander Clark- son and it was borne to the hearse.

He made some wonderfully clever turns, and slipped through the dangerous places like a prohibi- tlonist gotting around an election bet, Every- body said the Jap was all vight, but, as usual in sich cases, over yllm\f‘ was' wrong. Al- though ho shot in and out, up and down, around and about like a moteor, it only mo- mentarily delayed the inevitable, There was a lightuing like move, and McMahon's arm contracted likea boa constrictor around the throat of the Jap.

The hold could not be broken, and afterstanding it as long s he could the Jap’s hand went up and MgMahon released him and went to his chair, The Jap remained on all fours for nearly twominutes, gazing intently at the figures in the carpet und allowing huge gobs of dust streaked atmosphere to gamble joyously down his throat, ‘When he arose, it was to tell the audience why he wished he hadn't come. He said that if ho was evenly matched he would regard strangling as all right, but as ho weighed only 150 pounds he did not think it fair for his 185- pound adversary to try to choke him to death, The crowd agreed with him, and McMahon was voeiferously branded as acoward of the first water, The Jap said he would forfeit his money, and refused to continue the fight. Then_the crowd got vp and howled, The; charged on the stage, and a policeman had to draw his club and keep them back, Excited sports besieged the dressing rooms, and urged the con testants to go on again, if only to ap- pease the crowd.

Billy Huwley offered to back Baldwin, the local amateur, agaiust the Jap, and an effort will be made to arrange a match, Moywnihan, however, willnot bereferce. He gave itout coldto the howling audience that he knew when he bad enough, and announced his in- tention of permanently retiring from the referceing business, Tt was a great fake, all around, and nobody can be found this morning who will acknowl- edge that he was there.

Crioago, Nov. 25.—|Special Telegeam to Tue Bre]—Peter Mueller, worth three- quarters of a million, was yesterday sent to the bridewell for sixty days by a justico of the peace for bogging on the streets. The old man is a queer character. For years he and his wife lived in a miscrable hovel in the town of Cicero, denying themselves overy. thing except the absolute necessitics of life. They were known to bo the possessors of a great tract of land in that vicinity and many were the storics told by the ncighbors of their store of gold conccaled in the hut. Finally ono night, about four years ago, these stories had their logical scquence, Four masked men came to the hovel, demanded “the pot of gold,”” and on tho old'couplo pro- testing they had no money, tortured them in the most awful manner, but in vain, Next morning the neighbors found Mueller and his wife almost dead. Ther feet had been burned with hot irons and their bodies covered with bruises. It was some time before they re- covered, but as_soon_as possible Mueller re- sumed his begging. ¥i one night, about a year ago, he was locked up over night. When ho went to bis miserablo home next day he found his wife had suicided, probably through despondency at his absence, he having never beford been away from home over night. Hemade no change in his mode of life and kept up his mendicity, Sunday he made such a nuisance of himself in front of a fashionable church that an officer rested him. In court he refused to answor questions or pay a fino und was sent, 1o the bridewell, e owns several hundred acres of land in Cicero and is kuown to be the pos- sessor of several hundred thousand dollars' worth of stocks and bonds. e The Lamp Exploded. At six o'clock last evening a lamp exploded in the vesidence of George A. Wilcox, at 1111 Park avenue, and the house was soon on fire. The flames had found their way through the rcof by the time the fire department ar on the scene, and it became nece: flood tho house with water in order come the fire, ry 0 over- Some of the furniture had gotten out of the house before tho fire artment arrived, and that much was safe from damage or destruction. But the furni- ture that remained in the house was very badly damaged by wator and smoke. The damage will probably amount to not iess than $2,000, and is amply covered by insurance, e Ryan Was Stubborn. Sr. Pavi, Minn, Nov. 25.—Judge Brill today filed an order in the district court re- quiring Dennis Ryan, the wealthy proprietor of the Hotel Ryan to appear November 29 and show cause why a receiver should not be ap- pointed to take charge of his property and why he Should not be punished for contempt, in violating the injunction previously issued by the court.
