8 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 10. 1894 CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS CUommittee Named to Amend Union Depot Ordinance as the Mayor Buggested, FIGHT FOR THIS LED BY ELSASSER Strict Party Vote with Hascall Alding the Republicans Decides that a City Clerk Must Be Elected This I tine Business Transacted. The prospect of a gingery session filled the councll chamber with interested tators at the regular meeting last night, but the majority of them grew tired of waiting for the spectacular part of the show and went home in disgust. The chief inte waa connected with the amended union depot ordinance and the ordinance providing for flling the vacancy in the office of city clerk, both of which had been laid over under the rules at the previous meeting, and came up for final action. The first half of the ses- slon was devoted to routine business, and when the more Important measures ame up, their consideration attended by a continuous wrangle over parliamentary rules, which prolonged the meeting until a late hour. When the depot ordinance was being read for the third time Elsasser made a motion that the ordinance be referred to a special committee with instructions to insert amend- ments covering the points suggested by the mayor in his veto of the original ordinance. Wheeler, Hascall and Bechel vigorously ob- Jected to this, claiming that the ordinance Was on its third reading. They were over- ruled by the chair, and Blsasser, Burkley and Edwards were appointed a special com- mittee to make the amendments suggested by the mayor. Before they wero ready to report a motion to adjourn until Monda. night was carried, and the ordinance will at that time be reported by the committee with the amendments demanded. The test of strength on the city clerk ordinance was made on the following resolu- tion by Wheeler: Resolved, That hereby requested among the offic: pec- the mayor be and he is and directed to include to be elected at the coming general election “one eity clerk to il vacanc: as contemplated and required by section 107 of chapter xxvi of th: Compiled Statutes of Nebraska, edition of 1863, The vote was on strictly party lines, Has- call voting with the republicans, who carried the resolution by 10 to 8. Then Parker moved to adjourn until Mon- day night in order to delay the passage of the ordinancs until too late for the election, but the motion to adjourn was lost on a tie vote and the order of business was continued. TO MEET FIRE FUND DEFICIT. A resolution by Elsasser directed the comp- troller to transfer $10,000 from the general fund to the fire fund In order to carry the fire department through the year. The reso- lution was opposed by several councilmen, who contended that nothing could be spared from the general fund, and it was finally referred to the finance committee, The Barber Asphalt Paving company pre- sented a communication relating to its long contested repair bill. It offered to accept $13,20L.61 for its clalm, and to accept such @ sum as partial payment, as the funds of the city would permit. The bill with in- terest now amounts to $15,209.85, The com- munication was referred. The mayor reported that he had removed & number of registrars of election who had become ineligible since their appointment, and the vacancies were filled according to the recommendations of the ward council- men. There was a heated argument between Holmes and Specht in regard to filling a vacancy in the Sixth ward board of registra- tion, Holmes presented the name of a man who, he said, needed the job, as he had a wife and twelve children, but Specht said his man needed it worse, as he had only one Jung and had recently lost a hand by an accldent. Finally the difference was put to a vote and the one-lunged candidate won by a neck. Among. the ordinances introduced and re- ferred was one which provided for the submis- sion of a proposition to vote $75,000 in bonds for the purpose of creating a paving intersection tund. When the rules were suspended for the final passage of ordinances the democratic ocouncilmen made another atfempt to force an adjournment, but found themselves still a vote short. They were not disposed to give up easily, however, and a few minutes later the motion was renewed with the same result. The same tactics were continued during the re mainder of the sessfon but without success and after a season of wrangling over parlia- mentary rules the city clerk ordinance was read for the third time and pasced by the same party vote. This Is the ordinance that has been opposed so vigorously by the demo- erats, who hoped (o delay its passage until after the call for the general felection and thus keep the present appointee in the office until th expiration of Mr. Wakeley's term The council then adjourned until Monday evening.

OMAHA, Oct. 9.—To the Editor of The Bee: An editorial in the World-Herald gra- clously accords Oliver Wendell Holmes the verdict of a ‘“self-satisfled life.”” This, then, I8 the nune dimittis of the kindly, shrewd, &enlal autocrat, “He presented whatever was best of the New England point of view. He will be re- membered as one of the best and most bril- llant of that esteemed national type—the New England scholar.” Is this & descendant of the cavaliers speak- ing of a Puritan? ‘“The New England point Of vlew,” then, Is sectional! The tone of this harp just hushed smacked of Cape Cod and the brethren of Martha’s Vineyard in full chorus—nothing national about it, And besldes the ‘‘Pegasus was automatic. how far the Puritan Influence has m pation what it s would be a profitab for this “self-satisfied critic. ho “nationality” in our autocrat’s utterances If he epeak from “the New England stand- point,” having been born in a Puritan do- main, In the same issue of this “‘self-satisfied” paper were brief words from a few of New BEngland's men of letters. Walter Besant says: We have lost Oliver Wendell Holmes, that rarest of his kind, & man of letters loved by all the world, Behind every book that h ever wrote he stands himself with his genial, kindly, true heart and sweet speech. I could not hide himself, indeed 1 think he did mot try. He was what Addison bec his generation, and what Oliver Goldsmith was in his. He was a man loved by all English-speaking people. At this moment I cannot think of him as a writer to be classed or placed. I can only think of him as the man we all loved. America, England, Beotland and the isles beyond the seas are poorer this evening by the loss of one who Do other living writer can replace. There may be greater writers, but there was but one Oliver Wendell Holmes, and here we mourn as deeply as you do on your side. Edmund Goose, one of the high priests of criticlsm, says: The news of the death of Dr. Oliver W dell Holmes found me absolutely unprepared for it. It is but a few days since I re- eelved a message of affection from him and the assurance of his comparative health. 1 mourn for myself the loss of a friend, sin rulurly revered and beloved, and for Am jca the removal of her most venerable citi- Een, her greatest wit, the last survivor of her broad giants. 1 do not think that the Influence of Dr. Holmes as the exponent of what was reasonable [n urban and graceful in literary life, of what was dignified and wholesome in literary character, could he gxaggerated. = Tike = Garrick, he way bridgement of all that is delightful | nd @ perfect example of the typ Erows rarer and rarer aa the world grows de this study standpoint” altogether; they seem rather world-enveloping.

Scott ascended the bench In the criminal court yesterday and an- nounced that he had set the contempt cases of Edward Rosewator and W. D. Percival for hearing at that time. The complaints were not filed until the last moment and Scott previously had a lengthy conference with the county attorney and the lawyer whom he had appointed to prosecute the case in behalf of the court, He looked about the room for the defendants, but did not sce them and then he summoned the sheriff. The sheriff told him that he had served the citations of the court on Saturday evening. Scott then called In the clerk of the gourts and instructed him to immediately issuc an attachment for the gentlemgn who have incurred his displeasure, This was done and in a short time Mr, Percival put in an appearance, but Mr. Rosewater was not in his offi The court had taken up a criminal case and said that he would not stop the proceedings to hear the contempt e, Mr. Percival was then excused until rther notice and the large crowd which had been attracted by the case seemed dis- appointed as it filed out of the court room. Coples of the complaints were served on the defendants later in the day. These recite that ou October 5 The Evening Bee pub- lished an article relative to Scott's manner of questioning applicants for naturalization papers.

A rich parvenu, selfish, ignor- ant, gross, serves an an effective for the prodigal, refined sentimentality of the poet, while tl scene between the latter and the pewlerer's love sick daughter suggests a happy solution of the tragic strain, and the sounds of revelry by night intensify the in- evitable culmination of poetic fate in a genu- inely pathetic tableau, wherein death as- sumes the garb of beauty, “‘Chatterton’ and “The Belle's Strategem” will be the novelties presented during the engagement of Miss Marlowe at the Boyd, Miss Marlowe and company will open their en gagement at the Boyd on tomorrow evening in Sheridan's comedy, “School for Scandal.” On Saturday the bilis will the “The Love Chase” at the matinee, and at the evening performance “Much Ado About Nothin A scenie production of “Garry Owen,” the new Irish comedy-drama, with that clever Irish comed singer, Tony Farrell, in the title role, will be seen at the Fifteenth Street theater Thursday evening, October 11, and the balance of the week, with matinee Saturday. While “Garry Owen" is intensely dramatic and filled with action which is very entertaining, if the church going people of our city couid realize how nearly the audience, in one act, is transplanted, as it were, from the auditorium of the theater to the scenes and surroundings of ‘the beauti- ful Catholic chapel and listen to a delightful vet sol:mn rendition of the Easter service by a grand church choir, the Fifteenth Street theater would be filled to overflowing at every performance to witness this in- spiring scene alone, which is one of the most charmingly sublime acts ever presentsd on the stage.

Ex-Senator Fair Said to Be a Loser by the Manipulations of the Market. FRANCISCO, Oct. 9.—The Exam- says: There are 200,000 tons of May wheat lying at Port Costa and its vicinity, the first cost of which was $1,000,000 more than the p which it now commands in the market, Add to this interest, insuran storage and other expenses and the difference between its cost and its value will not fall short of $1,600,000. Is great mass of grain is the outward visible sign of the great deal which began a vear ago and the purchases for which only ceased on June 1 last. Its owner or owners have been a matter of conjecture for twelve months. No one has yet stated with author- ity who he is or who they are, but the con- sensus of opinfon for a long time fixed on ex-Senator James G. Fair. Of late this idea has been modified. Mr. Fair is still credited with being one of the unfortunate manipula- tors of this year's wheat market, but it is me in | now believed that he had partners to share his losses. The exterior evidence points toa pool of men in control of ready cash and the rumor has spread on California street that | either George Whittell or Luning Camp are the partners. The deal began a year ago with prices at about $1.10, which descended to $1 and varled from that figure to §$1.16%, options on the Produce exchange until late in May, owing to dry weather, causing a belief in the shortness of ‘the local crop, e Tralulng Ships Enroute to Bermud: VINEYARD HAVEN, Mass., Oct, 9.—The traiuing ship Enterprise, Captain Merry, left here today for Boston enroute for Bermuda.

The general effect of the well hung roor Is pleasing, satisfying, although one might with perfect right indulge in mild criticisem of some mistakes which are ap- parent in the placing of certain canvases but the hanging committee has generally been highly successful in its distinction of the values of pictures, and nearly every- body, who 18 anybody, are on the line, that dearest place on earth’ to the artist. But while great praise s due the committee for careful consideration of the relative pos tion of the painters includea fn the exhibi- tion, too much credit cannot be given the exhibition committee for a wise discrimina- tion in accepting the work of students and artists, striving for laurels, but who have not yet shown a reason for public recogni- tion, There may be some heart burnings in consequence of a too rigid adherence to the canons of art, but the wisdom of such course |8 seen In a massing together of pictures whose equal has not been seen in Omaha, which is saying a great deal. The exhibit’ in every sense Is meritorious, the very best the metropolis has seen from a purely local standpoint of view, for the pictures on the walls are the treasures of men or women who live fn the state, or Nebraska's sister state to the eastward, and they represent the art culture of the people who make up these two commonwealths. Included in the exhibits which fill five rooms are oils, water colors, etchings, orayons, engravings, tapestries, brom: statuary and vases, pastels, pen and ink drawings, the oils alone numbering nearly four hundred subjects. AT THE VERY DOORWAY. The entrance to the art exhiblt has been made singularly attractive by hanging on the walls overlooking the mrand staircase the Gobelin and Aubusson tapestries, owned by Mr. Herman Kountz ton, Mrs. J. M. Metcaif and Mr. Georgo Lininger, the Kountze tapestry, “Alexander the Great, Crossing the Grainlkos,” hav been woven at the national manufactory of Gobelin tapestry during the reign of Louls X1V, after a design by Charles Le Brun, the first painter to the king. This hanging one of a set of twelve pictures on tapes- try which Louis XIV caused to be de- signed by Le Brun, exploiting the life of Alexander the Great, the picture after which the tapestry is woven being the prop- erly of the French government, and now hangs in the Louvre. But the tapestries are by no means the whole feature of the entrance, the large paintings, “The Trans- figuration” and “The Last Communion of St. Jerome,” the property of Trinity cathe- dral and Brownell hall respectively, having places on the south walls of the entrance to the rooms, flanked by excellent life size statues in plaster of the Venus de Milo and Venus de Medicl. However much one may admire these works that stand at the threshold of the gallery, which through the wisdom of the library board of Omaha, becomes the permanent home of art in this cily, there are countless rarer and more beautiful products of the painter's art within. It was the object of the exhibition committee to make one of the rooms rich with the best subjects obtain- able, through the kindness of friends inter- ested in making this exhibit the crowning effort of art in Omaha, and the result far exceeds their most sanguine anticipations, Thither will the art-lover be drawn irresisti- bly, and several hours can be spent profitably herein marveling much at the fine discrimi- nation shown by the owners of these pictures. All that there is in the middle room on the south side of the building Is freighted with emotion and expression attuned to immediate suggestion and a flery intonation that is more powerful than tragic poetry, more sweet than autumn songs, more searching than the oracles of scripture and more babbling than the airy tongues of children. The language therein is the spirit touch of stlence, the melody of hushed utterance, inspiration and deduction. In a silence full of eloquence these wonder people of genfus tear aside veils, expose injustice, jest or weep, or ecry for merey, stir eager pulses with enthusiasm, sift. powdered jowels upon sentiment, There is no sermon like the wordless index wrapt in a painter's art. To come In sight of the best results of the genius of a Corot, a Kaemmerer, a Hertolla, a Tojetti, a Per- rier, a Renzl, a Fabarius, such as are given in this room, Is like coming into the presence of the men themselves, who have lllumined art by their great ability. Clustered t gether are paintings owned by Herman Kountze, Rt. Rev. George Worthington, George W. Lininger, Thomas Swobe, Mrs. Clark Woodman, Hon. James W. Woolworth, Miss Colling, Joseph M. Metcalf and others who have taken from the walls of their homes their best pictures, that an Omaha public may judge of the art owned in this “‘greater west,” still in its infancy, but show- ing signs of strength already. No. 326 in the middle section is a Corot, and one of the very best examples of this great painter’s art. It is only a bit, a landscape but few incles as to the size of the canvas, priceless, however, in the quality and tech. nique shown. It shows a clump of trees, a gray sky, and a bit of tender green, painted with the fine feeling which Corot knew so well how to display with his brush. Directly underneath the Corot is a4 wonder- tully clever painting by Perrier, Bois: which received the bronze medal at the uni- versal exposition of 1889. Tt is full of life and color, and executed so artistically that only the highest words of praisel fit the can- It, too, is small as to size, showing a house near the left middle distance, a bit of in the foreground, and a clump of with a French sky over all, soft and like those Normandy ekies you read about in “Three Normandy Inns” by Annie Bowman Todd. IN BROWN OCTOBER. “'October” by C. Bertolla, is one of the very best subjects on the wall. It is full of the fall of the year, and a landscape that might with as much truth be called Nebraska as the south of France. It is one of those gray days which are so difficult of perfect handling, but the artist has not failed to give the chill to the atmosphere, that fecling after the frost so essential to an October day in } braska. “Judith” by Tojettl is a well handled bit of color, although the name hardly seems to fit the character, “Amazon’ seemingly being more in accordance with the author's im- pression of ‘Judith.” It is a sensual face, dark and forceful, the poise being particu- larly artistic, while the managerient of the drapery s highly eftective. Miss Colling has two Bairds on the south wall of the middle section which cannot fail to interest all lovers of cattle and sheep. They are both excellent examples of this painter's pre-eminent skill in painting cattle and sheep pleces. One of the daintlest things in this room is No. 126, “After the Honeymoon,” by F. H. Kaemmerer, painted con amore, it excels In treedom n ‘wealth of detail, and in brilliant coloring telling fts story simply. and well,the carriage of the bride as she sits on one side of the table, where lunch has evidently been taken in silence, while the erstwhile groom sits with his back to bis spouse, showing a high standard of artistic handling. Nos. 127 and 129, “The Connolsseur” and “The OId Flirt,” are worthy the Lome from whence they come, Forest Hill. They are exquisite in their treatment and more sug- gestive of a medallion effect than any other thing that can be recalled. Mrs. Thomas Swobe has also a number of eritorious palntings in the loan. “Music" by Hynais, being one of the fiuest examples of the decorative in art in the exhibit—a won- derfully popular picture which has been ex- tensively reproduced in colors both in Europe and America. -No, 315 1s ope of iy ipporant pictwes w0 .

MORSE MAKES MUCH MUSIC Yesterday Dovoted to Pleasure—Everybody in Omaha Takes a Hand, CROWDS CRASHING THIOUGH THE STORE All This In Connection with the Great Sale of Zelmer's Bankrupt Stock of ‘Fine Dry Goods and Their Own New Importations. Perhaps the prettiest, most entrancing opening display of fall and winter goods ever held In the west occurred yesterday at the great store of the Morse Dry Goods Co, Music, mirth and money filled the very air. Boyd's opera house orchestra played marches and waltzes galore, beautitul women smiled, strong men laughed, little children clapped their hands, and dollars, thousands of them, went whirling over the in payment of the most phenomenal bargaine ever disposed of in any store in America. Some of these bargains were old goods, that is, this summer's designs; some were staple articles, but most of them were new things that have been bought by Morse's buyers, who have replenished the stock, till it now meets every desire on the part of dry g00ds buyers. It was a most complete suc- cess, and was an occasion worthy of the little exertion on the part of the public that 1t took to see this grand show. The musical programs were exceptionally good, being given in the usual fine style of this company. Few openings have occurred in this city that have brought out so many praiseful comments as this. Certalnly none have pleased everybody so well, both customers and managers, as this, the most artistic dis- play of fall and' winter dry goods ever shown in this city, wires s e hiecs SHOE SALE THURSDAY— BUSTON STORE, Thursday Boston Store Will Sell Shoes and Slippers, REPLEVINED BY THE SHERIFF.
