W, in Omaha ~News and Notes. A movemnent Is on foot to call & mass meet- $0g of all the fraternal insurance societios in the ity in the near future, and a civcular will soon bo issued and sent toall those lodges in the city asking their co-operation, Itis proposed to hold the mecting at some contral peint, possibly the exposition build- ing, and n prominent citizen has consented to preside. Other promuent citizens have con- sented to address the gathering on subjects welevant to the objects of the orders. These mass mectings bave been held in many large cities and have resulted in mark- ed benefit toall the socletios participating. The expense is a mere bagatelle and one so- cloty bas no_ advantace over another in respect to the benefit derived. The projectors of the mass meeting hope that it will meet with favorable conside ton at the hands of the societies in this city and it is expected to prove of material ben it to all i ted. (Communicate The Ancient Order of United Workmen, while very strong right here in Omana, with hearly a thousand members, and in Ne. braska, with over seven thousand members, 15 yet an order that is not well known, or, if known at all, is condemned with the hun- dreds of secret orders which bear no resera- blance to it, either in _formation, strength or purpose. It is a purely benovolout order, 50,000 strong, carrying an insurance of $,000 on the life of each ‘member. Originally got- ten up for the purpose of giving insuraice at exact cost to cach and every member, twen- 1 out its pur- its brief ex- stenco has disbursed tens of millions of dol- Jars to the widows and orplians of its d ceased brothers. In territory it covers tho Urited Stacws and Canada, and a member of any lodge in any jurisdiction can always find yolief and care in‘any part of the count may be in, if required. In Omaha there are five lod p from sixty to nearly three hun- in & good financial conc he! to their work, but _also frequently taking up outside charlties, and whenever they undertakoe to assist whero charity or protection is needed, they not onty do it, but do it well. In %0 many minds is the idea of secrot so- cleties existing only for purposes of buffoon ery and nonsense imbued, that it. may be well to givo e illustration of ‘one lodae, which is @ fair samplo of the rest, Union Pacifie lodge No. 17,0ne of the first Jodges organized in Nebrasks, has a member- #hip of about one hundred and seventy-five, "This lodge meets every Monday night in its Jodge room in the Barker block.

Omaba vouncll No. 449 National Union held its rogular meeting Tuesday night at Elk’s lodge room. In spite of the storm there wus a large at- tendance, and great enthusiasm was mani- fested in the mterest of the order Ono candidate received the degree and one mem- ber roceived by card from Leavenworth, Kas. A number of applications will bo pre- sented at the next meeting. The president and speakor of Nebraska eouncil were presont to extend an invitation 0 Omaha council to attend their “open ses- sion” on Thursday, April 20, at Royal Ar- canum b Tho Subject of the proposed mass meeting of the members and friends of the fraternal insurance socleties of Omaha was fully discussed, and tho prosident ap- pointed speaker George Ker as committee to confer with tho other oaganizations, The mmembers of the National Union in Omaha are very active just now, preparing for the wisit of Senate Deputy T.

John B. ‘I'homas of Cleveland brings suit against his wifo for divorce, alleging, among otber things, that sho smokes on an averago fifteen cigars a day. At a wedding in Arcadis, Fla, the other day, the bride was married to her' ninth hus- band and four of her former husbands were present at the ceremony. Johu M. Cristin of Kansas City is applving for asecond divorce from the same wornun, having remarried her after she nad secured a divorce from him two years ago. Heswears she expressed profound rogret that he was not killed in an accident whero a umber of people Lost their hves. Through & matrimonial agency, Louis A. Monroe, aged sixty-five, and Mrs. Lucinda Rowe, aged sixty-two, were married in De. troit the cther day. 'This was the groom's fivst plunge into matrimony, and he sacured his bride entirely through™ corresponder.co, When the ceremony was ended he throw up his hands and cried, “Bless the Lord, amen " Acurious instrument of writmg exists i Dunkirk, Ind. It appears that two early lovors failed, for some reason unexplained, to marry, but marricd others, Latoly a written ‘agrecment has been signed up, in seorecy, providing for their future marriage to each other, in the event they suryive theirpresent companions. The contract further provides & lquidated damage of $5,000 upon failure of contract, as provided. Lady Cook, formerly Tenuie C.Clafiin, arrived In New York a few days ago. Sho told a reporter: “My sister and Ihavea ¢ plan in mind--a woman convention— hich ‘we intend to have iusugurated at Chicago during the world’s fair. It will bea congress of women interested in the emauci- pation of women from tho slavery of mar- Tisge. There aro & score of prominent peo- ple i England interested in tie scheme.” Miss Louisa Martin, who left Shamokin, Pa., thirten yoars ago with Noah B, Long, who she supposed was her husvand, discov- ered about & month ago that the marriuge was a mock one, and has rewrned to her father’s home from Streator, [l She says shousked Long several times to show her the marriage certifica te, but each time was refused.

Iu those old days when both were young, And youth brimmed high a rose-wreathed cup, Over the balustrade she hung, All flowers and flushes, ail and blushes, “Is that you, darling®’ sho cried; ‘*Come upl” smiles A lifetime later, as he sat— The sparkle fallen from the cup— Rewem bering this, romembering that, In all lifvs chances, those words, .

AND FOYER, The action of the Minnésots senate com- mittee of the whole, in rccommending the passago of the now justly celebrated bill pro- hibiting the wearing of tights on the stage, would fndicate that we have spurts of r and spasms of viciousness, now and then broaking out side by side ius t as the vile smolling suntlower oecasionaliy grows m the samo bed as the kily of tho vailey. These upright judges of morality would place Viola in vestments and Rosalind in a Mackintosh, rataer than that their sons and daughters should become depraved through the display of flesbine in & burlesque or in someof Shakespeare's plays. Should this spasm of reform become gen- eral we n.uy all Live to se the cods placed in dress suits, and the goddesses in- RRedfern gowns ligh necks and long sleeves, Had the bill been aimed atthe indecont pictures which now and then adorn the dead wulls of the city, if it had provided against the suggestivo threo sheets of sevoral minstrel shows which are touring the country, there could not_have been anything butrejoleing that so carncst astand for the purity of the drama had been taken, but when they aimto place an embargo upon the wearing of tights, instead of the highly col- ored Lithographs of impossiblo blondes and bruettes in very questionablo positions, their efforts in the cause of morality amounts to little better than a farce. But the Minnesota reformers are not with- out associates in the matter of roform. A number of well known Philadelphia yomen have raised a protest against the studies of the nude displayed in the Acadery of Iine Ants of the good city of brotherly love. “We desire in tho name of the womanhood of Philadelphia, " recites this new index expur- gatorious, ‘‘and as voicing theexpressed senti- mouts of very many—several of whom are stockholders of the academy—respoctfully to to protest against the flugrant indelicacy of many of the pictures now on exhibition. “It is the general sentiment that uever be- foro in Philadelphis has modesty been so ruthlessly assailed. As Christian women, we feel this to be an offense to our woman® hood, an attack on the delicacy of our daugh- ters and the morality of our sons. And yet many of the women whoso names are signed to this protest are society favorites, leaders in the exclusive circles of the city which prizes blood above every other considervation. And yet without the least qualms of conscience they will attend the Assembly balis, the Meadowbrook hunt parties, ~the Horse Guards' dances in the most, ultra of decollete gowns, glorying in the charms of neck and throat, flattered at the - covert glances Destowed upon them by the male moths that flutter about them. Per contra theso artists, thelr fri the public generally deny that tho impropriety in cxhibitions of the human form, either on canvas or on the stage, unless the representation makes a directapbeal to the senses; they claim that mere nudity is not indecont except to minds which are de- praved, and that the complaints which are madeof the evil effects of classic art emanate almost invaviably from pruvient prodes whose minds are so constantly dwelling improper themes that they fiud indelicacy in apicturcof the crucifixion and a breach of good taste in @ reference to thelegsof a piano. But if Philadelphians are content with plotures of red-brick houses and pea-green meacows, and think well of the Italian who draped Michael Angelo’s figures with trousers and petticonts, who shall gainsay them? Thisis a wide world and there is room for every eccentriclty of taste. Tne LOUNGER.

Our talisman has also secured for us the imperial cutter of all the courts of Europe, (for we now stand in with all kings and queens) who remodels every garment to suit the shapes, forms and wishes of the most fastidious and best dressed citizen in this community. Thus it will be seen thatwe are in ADVANCE of all competitors. We are on the ground, tell them of their coming afflictions and thus secure enormous stocks at about our own figures. By the aid of a few congressmen, whom we control at W ashington, we have made a contract with the government that enables us to man- ufacture our own currency, which will be taken at par wherever pre- sented, with no cost to us exceptthe printing.

But experience is the best and only teacher; thatis a well established fact, and when houses who have been here scarcely a fortnight attempt to tell you that they can do things so much better than we who have been here over a third of a century, it sounds as if the eggs were trying to teach the chickens to cackle.
