Among the Losses Are One Thousand Sheep and Lambs, JERSEY CITY, June 16.—The old but ex- tensive abbatoir of the Central Stock and Transit _company In Harsimus' cove, just south of Pavonia avenue, was totaily de- stroyed by fire this evening, the total loss reaching ‘almost $1,000,000. Built on piles, the structure of two stories was entirely of wood, but the machinery was costly, while the amount of stock, including dressed bef, mutton and upwards of 1,000 live sheep and lambs went to swell the loss. No one ap- pears to know the cause of the fire, but Sat- urday is a half holiday, and one of the few men”at work may have possibly broken the rigld rules of the company and smoked, the match or the light of his cigar causing the conflagration. The fire, which broke out in the alley adjoining the fat room, and about 100 feet from the outer end of the bullding, was first seen by Watchman James Mc- Carthy. He did not make an instant turn in of the alarm, and he had to run to make his escape, leaving his clothing, which he had hung up in the office when he went off duty. Ho believes that of the twelve or fourtesn men at work in the building all eseaped. But when the Assoclated press reporter left the ground William Martin, the cook in the restaurant, was missing. The bullding was erected in 1874, over the water of old Harsimus cove, with a frontage of 300 feet on the river, and extending back for about 600 feet. The spread of the flames was 80 rapid that in fiteen minutes the whole space was a mass of flames, which caught the cattle boat Burlington and the barge refrigerator before they could be loos- ened from the dock; also the coal barge Hoftman, belonging to Brand, White & Co, The fire tugs of the Erie railroad and ten belonging to the Pennsylvania road, together with the private tug R. C. Raymond and the New York police boat, responded quickly to the calls and did thelr best, but the coal trestle of the Pennsylvania road on the plers to the south was damaged to the extent of ,000, and a number of cars loaded with coal were In the siding. The craft on fire were towed Into the river and cut loose, The Burlington was the onky one destroyed, the barges being only damaged to the extent of a few hundred doilars each The river front on the New York side-was lined with thousands of spectators attracted by the brilliant spectacle. Fears were ens tertained for the safety of the great Erle grain elevator, but, fortunately, the wina blow in the other direction. Within two hours from the outbreak of the flames there was nothing left but a glowing pile of cin- ders, wich covered about four acres of ground. The losses were $800,000, of which $600,000 is on the building and machinery. The Central Stock and Transit company s partly owned by many of those doing busi- ness in the plant, but the majority of the shares are owned by the Pennsylvania Rail- road company, Senator McPherson and Simon H. Smith. Over 700 men are thrown out of emplbyment by the fire, No data could be given as to the insurance, but it is said to about one-third of the loss. ——— Balloon aft. and,eve.

The Scottish Rite banquet was held at Masonic hall Tuesday evening, and was but the first of a series of similar soclal enter- tainments that are to be given for the mem- bers of the order and thelr wives, sons and daughters. It was a thoroughly enjoyable occasion and highly pleasing to all who were there. The early part of the evening was de- voted to a stereopticon entertainment, with vlews of statuary and scenes of the war. They were put on by Perry Lyons, captain general of Mount Calvary commandery, and the explanatory feature was in the able hands of Rev. T. J. Mackay. Entertain- Ing addresses were made by Rev. T. J. Mackay, L. M. Rheem and Judge W. W Keysor. At 10 o'clock the company pro- ceeded downstairs to the dining hall, where a delicious supper was served. The pilgrimage of tho shriners to Grand Island Wednesday morning was one that Wil not soon be forgotten by the nobles of Tangler temple. The start from Omaha was made by about fifty nobles of Tangier, and constant ac ons were received along the road, there heing over seventy-five in the party when it reached Grand Island. Sesos- tris temple sent forty nobles from the South Platte country, the greater number of them being from Hastings. The total number present exceeded 200. They were met at the train by a band and marched through the city to a hall that had been especlally se- cured for the occasion, as the Masonic hall was not large enough to accommodate them. Twenty-two candidates were initiated, the ceremonies of the evening belng eminently satisfactory to all, as they weré® of the most pleasant character. At 11 o'clock the tra- ditional banquet was served by the ladies of the Episcopal gufld. The visiting nobles de- clare that they never sat down to a prettier banquet table, and are enthusiastic in their praise of the entertainment. The tables were arranged in the form of an X, and were elaborately decorated with flowers, flags and the emblems of the order. The ladies had taken extraordinary pains, and the general appearance was decidedly metro- politan. The local nobles had likewise done all in their power, and to their efforts was due the greatest success that the nobles of Tangler have achieved outside of Omaha. This Was the second time that they had temporarily moved their temple out into the state, a special dispensation having been granted by the imperial potentate. Tangier and Sesostris temples are the only ones in the state, covering respectively the North and South Platte sections, and each has a large membership from the central and western portions of the state. These members are necessarily unable to derive much benefit from the temple, owing to the great distance at which they reside and the cost of coming. It was to give them the pleasure and benefit of a local temple that the change was temporarily made. The ‘all-important topic in shrine ecircles at the present time is the coming meeting of the imperial council at Denver, July Great preparations are being made by that city for the entertainment of the 5,000 nobles who will make the pilgrimage thither. New York will send: a delegation of 500, Cjncin- nati 200, andoBangler temple will also turn out 200 nobles for the trip. A speclal train will be at their disposal, and an appropri tion of $500 has already been made for e tertainment and headquarters. Tangier's representatives in the imperial council are Colonel H. C. Akin and James Gilbert of Omaha and Henry Gibbon of Kearney Colonel Akin is a member of the committee on ritual, appointed by the imperial council. The conclave, which 1s now held annually, is attracting a great deal of attention, be- cause of its pageantry and the magnificent character of its demonstrations. The sessions of the Masonic grand lodge of Nebraska, which will be held in this city the coming week, beginning next Wednes- day and continuing three days, will draw about 600 members of the order here at that time. There are now 224 lodges in the state, and all will be represented. Picnie of the Workmen. The third annual picnic of Union Pacific lodge ‘No. 17, Anclent Order of United Workmen, takes place next Thursday at Sarpy Mills park. The trip will be made in carryalls, which will leave the corner of Fifteenth and Douglas streets at :30 in the morning. Tickets for transportation can be had of the committec or any brother of the order. Plenty of music is provided, together withi & lot of sports of all kinds, for which prizes have kindly been donated. The com- mittee has left nothing undone to glve those who attend a real holiday, a good time and a nice place to enjoy an-outing. Plenty of good “drinkwater” and fce cream are pro- vided, and for the amusement of the chil- dren ' there will be three big swings and ‘numerous games, plenty of boating, fishing, bowling and dancing. “The following is the program of sports, the committee to add a few more, which will be announced on the grounds: Potato gathering race, boys 17 and under; fifty-yard dash; running, hop, step and jump; 100-yard dash for iadles; standing long jump; 100-yard dash for men; ladies’ base ball throwing contest; running high jump; 100-yard race, girls 17 and under; M.

With keen discernment the falthful critic carefully scans the solld work of the a thor, recognizing the eclevated range of thoukht, the r letion. the directness of purpose, g promise and mission, and with almost prophetic vision, the result, The superficial reader, dwelling at len upon exterlor marks ‘alone, with slig exercise of thought, turns quickly to the gilded surface of the binding, expresses a A and dismisses the case from sight and mind How like to the upon man passing fore the world. With what profuse liberality do we heap on the favorite of the hour praises suited to the doer of worthy deeds, rather than on the true victor in the hard won fight, who' often Is accorded little more than a final wave of the hand.

Snatched away by that mysterious power which we term death, a young priest, but slightly known to the 'busy, bustling world, leaves vacant a visible piace in halls of learning and divinity. As student and teache for a crown, he has stepped hig nearer to the Master of all Science, whose light is the Holy Ghost. He was an Irishman; one of whom Ireland mmy well be proud. One of whom Ireland might some day have written and sung. One for whom ireland may weep her purcst tears. He was a noble representative of the priesthood, brave, refined, witty, of fine address, tal: ented’ and cultured by study and travel He was fitted to adorn lofty places on the pllgrim road of life. Leaving a_cadetship in her majfesty's service for that of the mightiest of all powers, he made his morning’s offering of the first fruits and flowers of the day to the Lord of Hosts, That model of "vallant. soldier-kind, Se- bastian, was to him an instructor in en- durancé, even unto death, If needs by Agnes, 'the child-martyr of early Chris tian Rome, was to him the ideal of the beautiful in saintly annals. The catacombs ‘through which he had wandered whilst In foreign lands furnishe to his rich poetic imagination endless topic for reflection and conversation. Peace be to his soul, who, In going forth, seems. to have left ‘open a portal past which the light is shining, so that we may almost think we hear these words: reaching upward Once more to thee, oh, King of Kings! 1 raise my voice in praise sublime, Where all the choir of heaven sings Thy work of immemorial time. Few years 1 lingered on the earth, Led by the Guardian thou didst give, Now, Spirit of Eternal Birth, Forevermore I live, 1 live. I strove to dwell near to Thy feet, And Thou didst set my spirit free. Oh, Sacred Heart, so strong and sweet! Oh, Crown of Thorns that bloomed for me! ESMERALDA BOYLE, Washington, D. C., June, 1804, M. L. Andrews. A week ago, in company with Mr. Herbert Howell and Mr. William Ruff, Mr. M. L. Andrews took a run to Plattsmouth on his wheel. As they returned they stopped at the Platte river and went In bathing. They all started out, but Mr. Andrews turned foy another plunge. His companions expected him to come out at once and began dressing. They heard no outery, and only realized that he had not come out when they ran along the bank unable to sce him anywhere, They then raised the alarm and did every- thing in. their power to find him, but were unsuceessful. His brother-in-law, C. G. Scott, went down on the next train, ‘and the search was con. tinued late into the night and all the next day, but the water was so high and the cur- rent so swift that it was almost impossible to do anything, Another party continued the search the next day, but could only re- port the encouraging fact that the water was ging down. The following day Mr. Wil- liam Bushman and Mr. F. L. Gregory turned with Mr. Scott from Omaha and Mr. Frank Miller from La Platte, and the search again began in a most thorough man- ner. About 2 o'clock in the afternoon the body was found by Messrs, Bushman and Milleg and taken to Plattsmouth to be pre- pared for burial. Thursday morning it was brought home and interred at Forest Lawn, The deceased was 31 years of age and Lad been for a number of years the support and mainstay of the family. He was a young man of unusual ability, having occupied po- sitions of responsibllity for more than ten years. At the time of his death he was auditor for the Cudahy Packing company, where he was very popular. For a number of years he had been in poor health, sufter- ing constantly, and sometimes intensely, yet was never heard to complain, and almost never spoke of his suffering, even to Lis mother. His was one of the most unselfish lives ever lived, always delighting in doing something that would benefit some of his less fortunate fellows. His untimely death has cut off the promise of a brilliant future, The family have the deepest sympathy of thelr many friends in their great loss. From Oradle to Grave. Mr. and Mrs. John M. Thurston of this city have just been bereaved of their infant son, John Poland Thurston, aged 14 months, who succumbed to the shock to his system resulting from an operation performed at St. Luke's hospital, Chicago, on' Thursday afternoon last, for the purpose of removing a congenital tumor from the back and lower part of his head. The body was brought to Omaha for burial, reaching here about 2 o'clock on Friday afternoon. The funeral services, which were held at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Thurs- ton at § o'clock the same evening, were im- pressively conducted by Rev. T. J. Mackay, pastor of All Saints Episcopal church, aided by a quartet from the same church. The interment took place at Prospect Hill cemetery, in the family lot, beside two other children of Mr. and Mrs. Thurston. The grave was lined with a profusion of flowers, the tiny casket itself being covered with floral offerings. John Poland Thurston was an bright and healthy child, and his dea’h as a crushing blow to the entire famil have the heartfelt sympathy of a ho friends in this hour of their aflliction, 3 —— Balloon aft. and eve. Courtland today. ——— District Court Dol The judges of the law and equity divisions of the district court spent the day in hearing motions and disposing of default cases, while the judge of the eriminal section allowed the telal of, the state against Charles Bachman to proceed. In this case, the prisoner is charged with having committed adultery, Sadle Kelly being the complaining witnes. Friday night and just as the court was about to adjourn Bachman caused something ot a sensation. Arising from his seat, in front of the bailiff, he walked over to the prose- cuting witness and shaking his fist in a threatening manner, called her a foul name, at the same time applying a profane epithet, Ho was at once arrested for contempt of court and the trial was had there and then, it resulting in a conviction. The sentence was suspended until next Tuesday morning. unugually come's who of Bachman later fn the day was convicted of adultery.

The Omaha jobbers returned excursion last evening. They isfled with the results of the trip. an opportunity yesterday to of the rain on the spirits of the towns through which they passed, and they say that the down pour made all jubi lant. It fs regarded now as certain that al most all crops In the region where the water fell will be bountiful The climax in the return magnificent reception tendered the jobbers by the people of David City. When the train came to standstill not less than 1,000 people were there to greet them, the busi- ness men sending a big delegation to meet the travelers, of carrlages were quickly loaded and the guests driven about the town. The st ts were fillled with farmers' wagons, and the stores were crowded with customers, In the park the music of a splendid band added to the enjoyment of the visit. To the hundreds of farmers busily engaged in their purchases, to contemplate the condi- tion of the crops, the satisfactory condition of local trade, would cause oné to think that a panic in this splendid region could not occur. Certalnly there is little evidence to indicate that the merchants of this section of the state have suffered much from the recent disturbances in the financial world. Magnificent rains in the past two or three days have made certain an abundant harvest this fall. The Omaha jobbers came home feeling most enthusfastic over the prospects of a heavy trade this fall, and they are convinced absoluteiy that a better plan of pushing their trade and advancing the in- terests of Omaha and the state cannot be concelved. Three days of hard work, tired out with constant travel, having covered forty-three towns, the business men of Omaha came back thoroughly satisfied that one of the grandest agricultural empires in the world lies at Omaha’s very door, and a more enterprising class of country merchants never existed. e The temperature of the water at land beach is perfect for bathing.
