The services were con- ducted by Rev. C. W. Savidge and com- menced shortly after 1 o'clock. The servicos were very impressive, but were heard only by those of the immense throng who could get Into the house, The floral tributes were very elaborato On tne casket in which lay the remains was a beautiful pillow of lilies. Around the room were all sorts of floral decorations of pillows and beds of flowers. Thers was an hor and open oross beating the namo “J. F.

Boyd is no more, *“That warm and friendly ereoting, that countenance all beaming with tenderness and love, that splendid heart instinct with kind- ness are lost to us forever. ‘“The mere renearsal of his many virtues can be oflittle avail to alter or confirm pub- lic judgment of his character. Of still loss moment must be any words that I can speak in the presence of his time-honored friends. The surpassing qualivy of his heart was goodness. In proportion to his means he gave unto the poor, he gave uuto the cause which he espoused’as no other gave, “'Standing in this place now forever vacant of a face that cheered it, I know of no way in which we can more fittingly hallow tha memory of our dead brother than to here make a solemn resolve that we will wmora fully enrich and beautify our own lives with this sweet grace of wooduess which was the chief ornament of his soul and lesson of hia hife. “I move the following resolutions ba adopted,” and the sentiment of the cfub was thus formally expregsed: Wherens, We, the members of the Samosct assocint] a slight tribute to the memory of Johu F, Hoyd, desire to take pubdlic notice of hisdenth nnd'place on the record the ex pression uf our esteen for him; therefore, Xesolved, That wo are duly penetrated with n deep sense of the 10ss which we, in ¢ mon with the rest ot his fellow citizens, huve sustuined by the denth of Jobn F.

REPORTS FROM THE CENTERS OF TRADE Some Improvement Notleed and Collections Easy—Large Excess of Exports Over Imports—Fallures for the Week— Clearing House Statement, New Yonrg, Jan. 20.—R G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says: Itis undenia- ble that there exists a considerable feeling of disappointment. More business but at lower Pprices seems to be the rule. That the volume of trade is gradumly increaging, even in branches which have been dullest, there seems to be no doubt. But in an unusual number of cases (ncreasoc sales appear to be the result of some yielding in prices, so that the average decline in prices of all com- modities during the past week has been more than half of 1 per cent. There is more business done in iron, but the increase in the weekly output since the unprocedeated re- port of December 1 has weakened the price. Bar iron is dull at Philadelpuia and weak at Chicago. and the market for plates is demor- alizea by larse production, walle some struc tural mills are short of work. Copper is lower at 10.8 cents, with moderate exyorts and a great output. in is 1 cent lower at 10.6, but lead is stronger at 4.2 cents. Coal 18 unsettled. Reports from Varlous Cltles, Reports from other cities generally Indicate a gradual increase in the volumo of trade. At Boston there is not much change and trade is rather disappointing, but there are mote orders for boots and shoee, and the jobbing trade in dry goods is good with large western orders. At Hartford the dry goods trade improves some, whilé hardware and groceries ara uiet. At Philadelphia fron is quiet and coal do. moralized, but dry goods moro active and the grocery trade larger than last yeay. At Bultimore the jobobing ‘trade is quiet, but manufacturing brisk. Pittshurg roports finished iron weaker, and many flint glass works closed by dull trade. At Cleveland trade is, on the whole, equal to last year’s, with large sales of iron ore and rolled products in good demand and tirm, and collections 1mproving, At Clncinnau the carriage trade finds bet- ter prospects. At Detroit better business is noted with good roads. At Chicago trade 1n general merchandise 18 equal to last year's and recoipts have in- creased 1n most products, but doutled in wheat, flour and corn; collections are satis. factory, money plenty and prospscts bright., At 5t. Louis the retail trade is strong, and wholesale average and grain receipts large. At Milwaukee trade prospects are good, but thero i very little speculation. At St. Paul the jobbing trade and collec- tions are vetter. At Minneapolis trade 1s good for the sea- son and collections satisfactory, At Kansas City an increased trade is noted, At Denver trade is falr. At Memphis and Nashville trade is quiet. At New Orleans cotton is .lower with heavy recoipts, sugar steady and rico is quiet. At Savanuah trade is fairly good. In the Dry Goods Trade, In dry goods there seams to be rather less activity as to cotton goods, and in kuit goods some dullness. Clothiers are couservative and waiting for indications of the popular fancy, and hence the men’s wear woolen trade is perplexing. There 1s a better feel- ine in the wool market, however, at New York as at Boston, d the continuing sales prove that manufaciuring has by no meauns coasea. Cotton is one-eighth of u cent lower. While both receipts and exports fall some= what behind those of last year for the samo week, the indications still point to a very largo crop. Corn is half a cent higher, with heavy re- ceipts at the west, and pork products a little stronger. But wheat is a quarter of a cent and oats three-fourths of a cent lower than a week ago. Wheat receipts have been quite large, whilo the exports for the last week or two have somewhat declined. Oil is nearly acent lower and coffee a quarter of a cent stronger. ‘The money markets throughout the coun- try are unusuaily well supplied, but in part because the demand is only moderate. Col~ lections are gonerally improving, or decidedly good. The course of forcign trade makes tho ab- sence of gold imports somewhat noteworthy; exports {rom New York for four weeks of January have been $11,193,000, or 42.9 per cent larger than for the same weeks last year, while in imports there has been a slight decrease, which wouid point to an excess of exports over imports amounting to about £32,000,000 fox the month against $20,000,000 last January. The business failures occurring through- out the country during the last seven days number 207, as compared with a total of 42§ for last week. For the corresponding weei of lust year the figures were 320. WALL STREET FOR A WEEK. Subsidence bf the War Scare Lends Strength to the Market, New York, Jan. 20.—Bradstreet's weekly Wall, street raview says: The subsidonce of the Chillan war scare, followed by tenders of u pacific nature from that country, seems to have put an end to the hesitation which bad been created in spaculation, and per- mittec the reassertion of the builish ten- dencier which, in spite of the unsettling manifestations of the last three weeks, have nevertheless been appareut in the action of the share ket. One of the most note- worthy evidences of this fact was the fairly large buying for foreign account- which fol- lowed the news that the Chilian government bad made a satisfactory auswer to the de- mands of the United States. Atthe same tme it was exceedingly plaln that during tho depression stocks had, to & Iarge extent, passed into strong hands and the powerful Huancial and speculative interests contiuue to be convinced that the ultimate tenaency of prices 18 in an upward direction. New York Deposits, Last weok the deposits of the New York banks, for the first time on record, touched $500,000,000, while the absence of any large demand'of either a commercial or specula tive character has forcod moneyed corpo tion: ll.\?l la) tl ttractive to such purchasers, and there soems to be reasonable founaation for the current reports that in some instances the heavy buying of a divi- dend paying stock may be attributea to such interests. The plethora of money consti- tutes, in fact, & controlling fuctor in the situ- ation. The clearing up of the short loterests naturally facilitated the rapid advance of the market which commenced on Wednesday ; last at the same time the stronger parties, who had acquired stocks on the decline, were not slow Lo dis- play their inclination sud ability to assist the market. In this counection the action of the group of stocks with which Mr. Gould's name is usually connected is both significant and interesting, All idea ‘of further friction in the Western Traflic association has disa; . Under these circumstances the rapid advance of Manbattan sud the strength of other members of the same group is con- sidered speoially significant.

Mr. Chaffee stated that the paviug district ordinance was for the purpose of wiping out a large number of old aistricts and starting in new. Mr. Lowry iosisted that the ordinance covered some distriots that wore in court. Ho thought that the order of the court pro- hibited the council from interfering with the boundaries of the districts. 2 President Davis replied that such was not ths case; that the distriots to which the order of the court referred had been omitted from tho ordinance. Knocking Them Out. Then commenced the Work of reform and heads fell like ripa grain hefore the reaper's knives. The plumbing inspector was the first togo. The ordinance that laid him on the shelf provides that the plumbing depart- mant shall be under the supervision of tho suporinteudeut of buildiugs, who shall em- ploy one suporintendent of plumbing at $125 per month, which shall cover all expenses for transportation. The superintendont of building is nlso authorized to employ three plumbiug inspectors who will receive $4 per day, while actually engaged. Mr. Tuttle urged that the pussage of such an ordinance would not result in any great saving. 1t would reduce tne superintend- ent’s salary §25 per month, but at the samo time it would add 31 per duy Lo the salary of each of the Inspectors. The talk failed to have any effect. Another ordinance autnorizing the Boara of Health to employ two meat inspectors went through, while Mr. Lowry informed the council that the council had never adopted any rules for the goverument of the Board of Health. President Davis stated tuat such rules were being prepared and City Attorney Connell said chat they would be presented to the council at the next meeting. The office of sanitary commissioner was wiped out and the Board of Health will pr ceed to look after all matters of a sanicary nature. Tho next ordinance that passed was one abolishing the oflice of superintendent of the City ball. Mr. Lowry thought it bad policy to dis- charge a mau who had looked “after the buildiug since the day when its construction was commenced, President Davis furnished the information that Superintendentof Buildings Tilly would look after all of the details and see that the building was completed in accordance with the plans of tue architect. City Bugineor Responsible. ‘The next ordinance hit hard, for 1t dis- pensed with the offices of sewer and side- walk inspectors, placing the departments in charge of the vity engineer and the Beard of Public Works. Mr. Lowry filed another objection, but it did not count, He did not regard it as being ® wise policy to put in a new man at §75 per month {0 inspect sewers. 1o did uot think such a man could do good weork. President Davis again furnished some in- formation, stating that the city engineer would have to be responsible for all inspoc- tions and tbat the city’s iuterests would be carefully guacded.

You recall your childhood days, do you not, and wish tiey would return? You romember the pleasant associations, while the unpleasant ones are forgotten. Porhaps to your mind comes the face of some friend. It was onco a pale, sad face. It showed marks of pain, lines of care. It seomed to be lovking into the hereafter, the unknown future. And then you recalled how it brightened, how it recovered its rosy hue, how it became a picture of happiness and joy. Do you remember these things? Many people do; and gladly tell how tho health returned, how happiness came back, how the world seemed bright. They tell how thoy were once wonk, nerveless, perhaps in pain, certainly unhappy. They tell of sleepless nights, restless days, untouched food, unstrung nerves. And then they tell how they oecame happy, healthy and strong onco more. You have heard it often in the past, have you not? You have heard people describe how thoy were cured and kept in health? You certainly can remember what it is that has so helped people in Amecica. If not listen to what Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller, who is known universally as the groat dress reformer, says: *‘Six years ago, when suffering from mental caro and overwork, 1 received the most pro- nounced benefit from the use of that great medicine, Warner’s Safe Cure.” Ab, now you rememper. Now you re- call how many people you have heard suy this same thing. Now you recollect how much you have heard of this great Cure. Now you are ready to admit that, memory is usuaily pleasing, that the highest pleasure comes from perfect health, and that this great remedy has “one more to produce and prolong health than any other discovery ever knowan in the entire history of the whole world. Taking butter from milk was known in the earliest times. It was left for our time to make a milk of cod- liver oil. Milk, the emulsion of but- ter, is an easier food than butter. Scott's Emulsion of cod-liver oil is an casier food than cod-liver oil. It is rest for digestion. It stimulates, helps, restores, digestion; and, at the same time, sup- plies the body a kind of nourishment it can get in no other way.

After Years of Unsucosssful Search for a Cure, Martin Anderson Gets Relief from ' the Chinose Doctor—A Voluntary Testi monial OMAA, Neb., Jan. 18, 1802, To whom It May Concern; This is to_certify that I have boen a constant sufferer for many years with catarch, asthma and bronchial affec- tions of the throat., and tried all the patent medicines and remedies I over heard of, but with no success. I tieated with doctors in various parts of the country, but none of them could do me any good further than giving me short temporary relief, I .i\nfi‘md night agd duy. and continued to grow worse not- hstanding all the medicine I had tuken. I had almost given up my case a8 hopeless when 1 was informed by a friend of Dr. C. Gee Wo, the Chinese doctor, and advised to go and see him in the hope of gotting reliof at least, if not a permanent cure for my trouble. I was slow in making up my mind to make such a radical change 1n my treatment, as knew a trial with the Chinese doc- or would bring me, but I finally con- luded to give him a trial, so I callod at his office with that intention. I found the doctor a clever, entertaining gentle- man, thoroughly posted on my condi- tion, and it took only a very short time to convince me that he was the party [ was 80 long in search of. Ho told mo my case was curable, and that he could cure me, and prepared me a special treatment to suit my condition, and in two weeks I was »0 much better that I had the fullest confidence in the doctor’s ability and committed my cuse to his treatment. I continued to grow better rapidly and am now entiroly well. I owe my cure to Dr. C. Gee Wo, and am not ashamed to admit it. I adviso all who want relief from their troubles to callon Dr. C. Gee Wo, and they will be cured. For all particulars apply or write to MARTIN L. ANDERSON, 3121 Cuming St., Cmaha, Neb. DR. C.
