 The singular dual life of the Crescent City took vehement hold Of the imagination of the old clergyman. On one side of it's great artery, Canal street, is powerful American city, firmly established, fully abreast of the trade and industry of the time, and clu.ching eagerly for its share of the commerce of the world. IL is yitalized now with an energy which, if not pure Yankee in character, t very closely akin to it
 Here are miles of wharves heaped with cotton and sugar; thoroughfarss massively built, through which ths endless tides O human life ebb and low all day; magnificen avenue. stretching away out to the country, lined with modern hotels, club houses and huge dwellings, each flanked by one or two picturesque towers, which, on inspection, turn out to be only cisterns.
 There Is the necessary complennsnt of black shadow below these vivid high lights Pow. erty and vice live more out of doors in Ne. Orleans than m northern cities. There they are, barefaced, leering, always on the familiar pave, to be seen and known of all men. Back of all signs of wealth and gayety, tOo, is the mud, a material, clammy horror. The water. deadly enemy here, perpetually tough: anl forced back, rushes in. whenever a days rair gives it vantage, at every crevice, floods the streets and clogs the drains It oozes out of the ground wherever you step on it, drips down the walls of your drawing room, stains your books A coffee color, clings 10 you. chilly and damp, in your clothes and in your bed, turns the air you breathe into a cold stream, and washes your dead out of their graves.
 So the old man and the girl, teing about the same age C-as old as the Babes in the Wood" quoth Mrs Ely, fell into the habit of siroiling in the early morning or gathering twilight through the network of oddly silent streets, so narrow that the overlapping caves nearly met over the cobblestone pavements. Steep roofs, scaled with earther tiles and green with moss, hooded dormer windows peeping out of them like half shut eyes, rose abruptly from the one storied houses. Here and there . cobbier sat on bis bench in the street plying his awl and singing to himself, or a group of swarthy, half naked boys knelt on the banquette, fiinging their arms about in gambling game for pennies, and shriek- ing in some wild dialect, half negro and half French
 Their walks usually ended on the Boulevard Esplenads. Even that wide thoroughfare fell into quiet in the afternoon as the long shadows of the trees lay heavily across it Within the close walls they could catch a glimpse of the courts about which the houses arc built, the glitter of fountains shaded by orange trees and broad leaved tropical plants. Sometimes a ialousied window would be left bpen, and they would catch the tinkle of a guitar or the sound of a wOman's voice sing ing.-RebOeca Harding Davis in Harpers Aacaxino

THE DAVIS RANCH,
A Lady's write-up ofone of wyomIng's
Great Horse Farms.

In last Sundays Omaha Republican
Grace Dean Hunt has a poem in prose
descriptive of a trip to the famous Davis
horse ranch south of this city. List to
the prelude:
Fourteen miles from Cheyenne, Wyo'
ming Territory, Just across the boundary
line of the grandest state in tie Union,
Colorado, there has been gathered togeth-
er in the triumphal Western march of
man, right in the heart of now golden
brown plains, a picturesque group of
house, barn and trees, picturesque and
peaceful beyond words in situation, and
swept by the pure winds from yonder blue
mountains, which bows in its course the
tall prairie grasses in graceful submission
to its sweeping force. Behold in tie dis
lance the divine vision Of the Rocky
mountains, cleaving with their crystal
points the brilliant blue of this pure re-
gion, while, here and there, a point is
lost in the mystery OF heaven. or being
seized by a sudden gust of fury will fling
abroad, like a great white plume, a fall
of snow only to be followed by a shower
of dazzling sunshine.
Further along In this inspired produc-
ton the writer mentions the fact that
there are 1000 horses ON the place, that
fine saddlers and drivers are bred and
trained. Here is another excerpt:

The Union and Central Pacific, says the
San Francisco Chronicle, are already re-
serving berths in the new vestibule train,
to leave IN the Sth prox., for passengers
applying at their offices. One of San
Francisco's "nobs'' told the Union Pacific
agents to reserve him a berth at any cost.
He was bound to have Il trip on the first
yestibule train going out. The agents say
that many people will make the trip over
land in the new cars for the mere novelty
of the thing, and that for the first few
trips the applications are expected to ex-
coed the accommodations. The names of
the cars are suggestive of the cosmopolitan
class which will most use them. They are
the Golden Gate, Cass Monica, Rahula,
Khiva and Aladdin. 1t has been decided
to have the trains stop only at the follow
ing places between this city and Omaha:
Sacramento, Truckee, Reno, Winnemucca,
Carlin, Wells, Green River, Cheyenne
and North Platte.

The solIes Jury Returns a Verdict of
Not Guilty.

The jrry in the Solles cattle stealing
case, after a consultation of but a few
minutes, returned a verdict of not guilty.
The taking of testimony occupied all OF
Monday and the case was submitted with
out argument.
The history of this case is not without
interest. Last summer VIM. q. Lykins
and one Hyatt arrested Solles, Cunning
BAN and Small. Nebraska grangers, as
they were leaving the territory with the
carcass of a beef belonging TO Hyatt,s en-
ployer. At the preliminary hearing Gun
ningham and Small, without eliminating
themselves, averred that Solles was guilt
less. Their story was that the trio had
started out on an antelope hunt, but that
failing in capturing game a steer had been
killed. Solles, they said, had nothing
whatever to do with the butchering.
Color was given to the statements of
Small and Cunningham by subsequent
events. All three secured bail, but Solles
was the only one to answer to the indict-
ment. The aspect of the case from the
view Of the defense was unchanged by
Solles' evidence before the jury.
Neither did the testimony of the pros
%ecution vary from that adduced at the
preliminary. Solles was in possession of
the stolen property with his companions
when arrested. j. c. Baird was attorney
for the defendant.
In the case of H.. E. Teschemacher VS..
Robert and John Hess, leave was given
defendant Hess to file an answer within
five days.
Catherine Reitz. a native of Germany,
in open o. declared her intention of
becoming an American citizen.

spend seven months in the county jail.

and the fourth act from The Merchant
OF Venice" which promises to be the
browning feature OF the evening.
A social time will then follow. during
which refreshments will be served.

Transmitting RemIttances.

Within the past ten days there has
been a remarkable increase in the business
of the Cheyenne post office. The register
and money order department especially
receives additional patronage as the holi-
days approach. One very notable feature
is the amount OF money which is being
sent to Europe, fully $3.50 per day being
consigned to transatlantic lands. This
money will doubtless be used in the pur.
chase of Christmas gifts. Considerable is
sent through the banks and the amountoi
Cheyenne money which will one way and
another find its way to the old countries il
surprisingly large.

not surprising that there have been nu'
merous accidents. There ought to be &

"Carelessness has caused more accidents
than anything else," answered Mr.. Bux
ter. The men have been lun pretty
steady. it is true; but nearly all of then
were anxious to get in big time, and nj
one ever heard of their being overworkec
until some accident occurred. There MAJ
have been instances where mishaps re
suited from men putting in more hour
than they ought to, but they are few anC

A Generous Remembrance.

At a meeting of the Irish Benevolent
Society, held last evening, 800 was
donated to the family of the late Peter
Winters, who had been a member of the
society. Financially the Benevolents are
one of the most prosperous societies in
town, and the donation coming at this
time speaks well for the practical applica-
ton of charity which is one of the
fundamental principles of the order.

A Great Show.


Last night Boyd's Opera house was
packed to OVERLOOKING with an audience
that represented the wealth and culture of
Omaha, to witness the production of the
best minstrel performance ever given in
the city, To make such a declaration in
relation to a purely American feature of
the worlds amusement after the institu-
tion has had nearly half a century of con-
tinuous popularity would seem impossible
to be well founded. This statement is
true, however, and the distinction was
easily won by HaVerly's minstrels.
