2} LENTZAND WILLIAMS GREAT OPF, NING, tial Gentlemana' Inaugration of the Cltys Pal Resort Willlams opened their new sa- loon and billiard parlors, 1418 Farnam street, yestorday. To say that the house s a palatial one but inadequatcly expresses ft. Omaha has boasted of handsome establish. ments in _this line, but it has been left to | Lentz & Willlams 1o give the city a resort which, in luxuriance and magnificence, com- pares favorably with the prominent houses of New York and Paris. This house, o far as completeness of detail and beauty of finish is concerned, eclipses anything situate Lentz & between the two oceans. One Is struc with the exceeding plcturesqueness of the place the moment he enters its broi 1 front doors. The vestibule, with its tile flooring, wainsconting and side walls, its massive steel celling d wondrous finish in beveled glass is a wonder In itself. The doors are of olid black walnut, exquisitely carved and winging on great, fanciful hinge he escutel after t on s of genuine bronze, wrought yle of the medelval days The llquor and clgar cases are i richness and beauty. The s heavy bevel glass, the newest kn ealms of art. It could be sup mention that these elegant compartments are filled with the choicest goods of the American and forelgn marts, and that Krug's celebrated cabinet beer fs always on draft The walls are clothed with the latest design of Lincrusta-Walton, laid off in panels in keeping with the other rich fixtures, the olors all harmonizing with natural woods utilized in the same. The whole is highlighted fn gold and silver, the cellings being the latest triumphs in the decorative art_known as the fibrous plaster, all worked n basso relievo and furnished by Henry A Kosters, From here you step into the bar- room proper through a swinging gate of rosewood and hammered glass, above which 15 a net woic of iridescent dev and emblems. On the left is a swell-f mahogany top counter, with p arm rafl and brass folding foot Underneath this counter, is the work-board. This s constru copper of the latest design and ap- proved type. Back of this and extending to the ceiling is the refrigerator sideboard and colossal mirror frame. Ornamenting the cornice of this are panels of art glass all supplied with electric illuminating scounces, which make an effect at once wondrous and startling. Across the mosaic floor is a series of wine and tiolet rooms, and back of these, and through a gothic arch, you are_confronted by onc of the most com- modious, airy and inviting billiard parlors in the country. Here are eight costly tables, constructed entirely of walnut, and after a dels of of wn in the rogatory to the rest ik and | ted entirely of nost design to conform with the exquisite fur- niture, Bach table tments, coat and hat closet, with h mirrored fronts, and racks and other appurtenances. The tables are fitted with the famous monarch cushions, special simonis cloth and standard ivory balls, with cues uniquely i laid and ivory-tipped. All these rich and costly furnishings were put in by that incomparable old house, the Brunswick-Balke-Collender company, known equally well in every civilized eountry on the globe. The Brunswick-BalkeCollendar branch house in this city occupies their own building, 407 a> d 409 South Tenth street, and is presided over and managed by that popu- lar and enterprising gentleman, J. C. Selden. All of the carpenter work has been put in by Joseph M. Swaziek, builder and con- tractor, who has been in the employ of the Krugs in this ity more or less for the p ten years. Swaziek’s work, in point of thor- ough finish and beauty of detail, has never been surpassed in any job that has been done in this eity in years, and the plumbing, heating and gas-fitting, by Theodore Heuch, is in strict conformity with the general graceful symmetry and general eloquence of the whole establishment. Judging from Lentz & Williams' overwhelming opening, they have established first claims on Omaha's most popular resort. — MERCANTILE ADJUSTMEN W Total Ruination No Longer the Necessary Result of Bankruptey. Bankruptey in former times meant total ruination with little or no opportunity for redemption_on the part of the unfortunate debtor. Shrew merchants long since ap- preciated the fallacy of old methods, and recently there has been a_growing tendency to settle affairs of this kind as profitably for both parties as circumstances would per- mit. Tho settlement of cases of this character, requires the most thorough knowledge of circumstances, and a_complete knowledge of mercantile law, combined with good judg- ment and careful management. Messrs, Cavanagh, Thomas & McGilton, counsel for the Mercantile Adjustment company, a com- pany recently organized in this city for this express purpose, possess the above qualifi- cations in a marked degree. The Mersantile Adjustment company is an entirely new organization, formed for the purpose of effecting settiement and com- position for failing merchants, the object being, instead of wrecking, to preserve, to keep a merchant in business and to permit him, by making settlement with his creditors, to keep lis property intact. Bet- ter results may be obtained by this method than by the old way of wrecking the mer- chant, giving to a few all his passessions, leaving himselt and family destitute and the large bulk of his creditors holding worthless accounts. The men in charge of the affairs of the company are capable, have had long experience and as individuals have effected many settlements for Nebraska merchants. The new company certainly promises to become a factor in the business world, and merchants in trouble would do well to consult the company's counsel at their offices in the Karback block, Omaha, Neb. e Golng Enst Toduy ?

The relation of the lawyer to his fellows, says a writer in the American Journal of Politics, is essentialiy a public one; and as such imposes duties of a public character and of great importance. Indeed, the law- yer is in some sense a publlc officer. In a complicated social organism such as ours, the relation of the lawyer to his fellow men is one of peculiar delicacy and responsibility, as well as of signal oppportunity for good or ill. The lawycr, in o constitutional goy- ernment especlally, is first of all a student of the political, intellectual and material, s well as of the judicial development of the country. The subject is vast and difficult, but he will be qualified to prosecute his pro- fession with satisfaction to himself and profit to his clients, according to the breadth and depth of the foundation of his culture in the themes co-ordinate with his special field of thought. The “professions” are held to oc- cupy a higher planc than other respectable and useful occupations because of the more exact discrimination they require, the more unseifish living they compel. « In other flelds personal gain is the chief, if not the only, object, The laborer or tradesman in the pursuit of his business owes no duty to lis fellow men, aside from the demands of integrity and truth; but in the professions each individual assumes a trust relation to his assoclates, and his private ends becore of secondary importance. The preacher in the pulpit, the doctor at the bedside, the lawyer in the court, is not thinking of his fee. He is a failure if that be his only thought. His relation to his parish, to his patient, to his client, Is too sacred. His obligation is greater than money represents. The trust acecpted may not be relinquished at pleasure; it binds him till the end. The upright or faulty attitude of lawyers has brought to the profession extremes of eulogy and ridicule. 1t is not strange that lawyers are sometimes held up to public scorn. "A man of any public note I8 of necessity target for the mediocre and unsuccesstul. There are different reasons for the unfavorable opinions that to some cxtent prevail. What s called the “mystery of the craft” renders it objectionable to some. er, has moved Miss Mason ing classes The The lawyer deals with matters which secm dark and strange the uninitiated; his Inowledge of legal forms and technicalities is anchored In the cloudy past by uncanny French and Latin phrases. His knowledge of the rules of law is drawn from ponderous and musty volumes, into which the lay- man seldom peers, Beyond this, the litiglous ~ character of the business he conduets leads him to flourish where quar- rels most abound, and suggests him as the cause of disagreements. His duties bring him into antagonism with the prejudice and sellishness of men. Advoeating the cause of one, he necessarily opposes the interests of nother, and the defeated party will readily ascribe his ill.success to some unfairness of his foe. For a still more serious ground of popular distrust, the profession has no one but itself to blame. As humanity Is not per- fect, this, as other callings, has those for whose shortcomings the body aggregate is held responsible. The exceptional power for good or 11l, wielded by to strong temptation; while this powe be made a noble Instrument for good, perversion, though pernicions, Is not readily the lawyer, subjec d nor accurately Iated, ana go wns picion falls on all. This wholesale conden, nation Is utterly unjust. Some ministers be t their trust; some tradesmen are dis honest; some lawye inherently oblique but this is not the test by which to judge cach calling Practically, all legislatic is effected by menbers of good or bar, for f no other class are en 80 gften called to 1 e the sc s of private life and lend their talents to “promote the general wel fare In hig capacity as judge, the lawyer' power becomes the most impressive. What ever feeling, fire or fancy may be per mittad to the advocate, the sympathies of th judge must be intelligent, and his feelings well disgnised.

The traveling men of Omaha and vicinity held a mass meeting at the Commereial club last evening for the purpose of fostering unity in the interests of the Gate Cit C. O. Lobeck, chairman of the bureau of commercial travelers, presided. Rev. T. J. Macl v, who was once a trav- eling man, was the first speaker. He urged unity and harmony among the pilgrims of commerce and impressed upon them the ne- cessity of truth and good deportment when they were at home and abroad. They were the apostles of a new civilization. Unity was essential to the interests of Omaha— divisions were fatal in everything, as was evident from quarrels over religious creeds, Travoling men were good citizens. He urged them to show visitors to Omaha the best part of the city and not allow a morbid and senseless idea to guide them to the worst side of Omaha. The speaker deplored the fad of “slumming” and said it was no credit to those who participated. MR. WELLER'S ADDRESS. Charles F. Weller, chairman of the execu- tive committee of the Commercial club, de- livered a splendid address, which was in sub- stance as follows: “Your position is an important one. stand between the wholesaler and his cus- tomer. You are the telcphone that con- nects the two. Your occasional visits, if you are what you should be, are looked for- ward to with pleasure by your customers. You -are the link that connects the country customer with the commercial world, with whieh he rarely comes in contact personally. You are independent, you are left to your own devices, you are out from under the watchful eye of your em- ployer, and the best interests of those you represent are largely in your hands. How important it is then. that you should be men of pritiéiple, that as representatives of aif- ferent lines or of competitive lines you should not allow: little petty jealousies to arise that would influence you in any way to take advantage of your brother salesman. Be honest with one another, strive to main- tain a friendly and fraternal feeling. Work for the interests of your profession, to bufld it up. Remember that to your hands has been committed the best interests of the men who employ you, and, to a certain ex- tent, their future business success. There are now on' the road, representing different lines of business in the United States, 250,000 traveling men, and this number is constantly increasing. These men have been selected from among the brightest and best informed young men of the country, they are generally men of good address, men who are well up in the business they represent, well posted on the general topics of the day, capable of making their influence felt wherever they Eo. “I am interested in your welfare and suc- cess. I want to see the commercial traveler of today occupy the position that he should occupy in the commercial world. 1 want to see him thoroughly posted in all the affairs governing and controlling commercial trans- actions of the present time. I hope, there- fore, that these meetings may be more frequent, and as commercial travelers be- come. better acquainted they will foster a fraternal feeling and kind regard for each other, and while legitimate competition will have a tendency to make them active and alert, T hope that no traveler within the sound of my voice tonight will ever resort to any undignified or ungentlemanly means to secure orders. Make friends of your customers. Give them to understand that vyou are not only working for the interest of your employer, but for theirs, and if you can favor them in any legitimate way,” do so, but do not endeavor to bulld up a personal friendship for vourself at the expense of the house you represent or at the expense of some wo competitor. You should be an educator of the trade by being your: educated, and, as I said before, y be active, encrgetic, honorable and untiring in your efforts to further the interests of your employer."

A drawback which has heretofore seri- ously interfered with the widest distribution of the Century Compan: great work has been the high price necessarily placed upon the edition in its original shape. This was necessitated by the comprehensive scope upon which it was planned and executed at an_expense of over $250,000. But the obstucle is happily no longer in xistence. The Bee has made arrangements with the Century company for the issuvance of a new popular edition, containing all of the features which made the first issue so valuable to the goldier and student alike. The Century ‘War Book, is now issued by The Bee to its readers, consists of twenty parts, one part being put forth each week. The original edition sold for a price rangiug om $22 to §28, according to binding.
