That Burt Street Grade.

If the steep grade between Thirty fifth
and Thirty streets on Burt is not
changed 1t will interfere so seriously with
the locomotion of the motor line as to re-
qure special transfer for persons going to
Walnut Hill, only five blocks away, and will
occasion considerable Inconvenience and a
loss of time. The grade between Thirty-f fifth
and Thirty-sixth streets Is so steep that it
will be impossible to try and run the motor
cars up it this winter. From Thirty sixth
north to Cunning is down grade, so that if
the grade was lowered at the corner of
Thrty-sixth and Burt the track from Thirty
fifth west to Thrty-sixth and north one
block to Cunning street would be gradual
incline, instead of up hill and down as it is
now. All the people of Walnut Hill and
vicinity are anxious Cor the change as is also
the motor company, because it will give
direct communication between that suburb
and the heart of the city, while the present
grade will require the running of short
line between Fortleth and Thirty sixth
streets, and the passengers before being
transferred will have to walk two blocks to
Thirty fifth and Burt.
Omaha daily bee., 1889-09-16

commission regarding the crossing of the
new Sioux City g Northern and the Chicago,
st. Paul, Minneapolis 81 Omaha tracks AT
Maurice, Sioux county, gives great satisfac-
tion here, where the obstructive policy OF the
latter company has excited general iudigna-
tion. The St. Paul road applied to the com
mission to compel the Sioux City road TO
cross by a vIaduct, This wonld have forced
the Sioux City road to make a new and
high grade for n long distance, at u cost Of at
least $4,000, besides involving IL in many
other practical dificulties. The commission,
after visiting the spot, has made an order
requiring that the ST. Paul shall lower its
track the same distance that the Sioux City
must raise its grade, in order to make the
viaduct aud that the expense of the whole
work shall be equally shared by both roads.
The effect is to exactly turn the tables, for
the grade of the st. Paul is now so steep at
this point that 1t is hard TO get trans over it,
The St Paul has thus fallen into the pit
which il dug To embarrass competitor.

CLOSE OF THE EXPOSITION.
Brilliant wiudup Of n Two Weeks
Successrul Display.

The Coliseum exposition after two weeks
OF uninterrupted success closed in blaze OF
glory last evening. The big building, in
honor of the occasion, seemed TO be illumina-
ted with unusual splendor, the EXHIBITS
never looked better, and vast crowd,
ladies, gentlemen and children, were on
hand for last promenade, last musical
treat and last look at all the rare and beau
tiful things that have interested fifty or
sixty thousand people since September the
second.
BETTING the grand finale were the ad-
dresses of Hon. John M. Thurston, Major
Clarkson and Mayor Broatch, the three
combining in one lavish, but richly
deserved eulogy, of Manager John
S. Prince, the founder of the Coils
cum and the originator and superintendent
of the exposition. The remarks of all three
of the gentlemen were of an exceedingly
complimentary character to Mr.. Prince, and
the vast crowd of spectators attested their
appreciation in three rousing cheers.
Apropos to the closing evening was the de-
lighJful concert by the Musical Union band,
which rendered a charmingly selected pro-
gramme with an impressment that was
most pleasing to the throngs of people who
fingered until the last number was rendered,
and the last melodious cadence died away.
That the exposition Is now permanent in
stitution and that it will be revived upon a
much grander and mere elaborate scale next
autumn is an incontrovertable fact. The ex-
hibitors are all more than gratfed with the
success of the enterprise. while the people
only have words of praise for the two weeks
of pleasure it has afforded them.

The POLLUTED IOWA RIVER.
The State Board of Health Has No
Power 10 Abate the Cause.
solEs SEEMS IN THE LEAD.
The Democratic slope Will Very
Probably Be Intrusted to Shin.
-Des Moines Packing
Houses Consolidate.


DEs MoNEs Ia, Sept. 5.-lSpecial Tele
gram to The BEE. The state board of
health has been pretty badly pounded by
newspapers aud Individual complaints for its
failure To abato he pollution of the Iowa
river, caused it is supposed by the refuse of
the glucose factory at Marshalltown. The
secretary of the board, DR.. Kennedy, has
finally come out in self defense, with letter
explaining that owing to the weakness of
the law the state board is unable to do any
thing more than advise, and since 1t has ad-
vised until 1t is tired out, it has been forced
with sorrow to see that nothing has come of
it. The law seems to be very defective in a
case of this kind since IL leaves TO the local
board of health, at the point where the
nuisance originates, the only power to abate
the same. As in this Iowa river case, the
great complaint comes from points several
miles away, where the effects of poisoning
the river are most seriously felt. But the
people thus injured have no redress and are
entirely dependent upon the action of the
board of health ut the place where the trouble
originates. 1t is needless to say that
a local board subject to local influences
would not be any too active in discovering
evils whose abatement might cause consid-
cradle trouble and expense to local interests,
especially when the only complainants were
persons living many miles away. 1t was
found by inquiry also, that the state fish
commissioner mad no right to interfere in a
case of this kind even to protect the fish
that are dying by thousands; for the law
allows this to interfere only when poisonous
matter is put In the streams, with the intent
to destroy the fish. That doesn't apply to
this case, for no one charges that the glu-
cose factory people want to kill the fish. If
the effect of the refuse poured into the river
is to kill the fish, that is an incident, not the
purpose of the act The law being so de-
fective it is probable that the next legisla-
ture will be asked to correct, 1T, by giving
state authorities power to abate nulsances
that threaten the health and lives of citizens,
so that if local boards refuse to act, some
one may have authority to do so.

WOMEN IN INDIA.
Miss Kughier Delivers An Address
on Their Condition

Miss kughler Delivers An Address
on Their Condition.
The pulpit of the Southwestern Lutheran
church at Twenty-sixth and Poppleton ave.
nue. was occupied yesterday morning by
Miss Kughler, a medical missionary sta
toned at Guntoon, India, who read an ad-
dress on the debased condition of women in
India. Miss Kughler maintained that it was
not the intention to attempt to Anglicize but
to christianize Hindoostan. She acknowl.
edged that the efforts put forth and the
money spent in that country for missionary
work had borne but little fruit, as there had
been but few conversions to the christian re-
ligion, because the Hindoo regards the CHRIS
tian as the christian regards the tiindoo.
However, something had been accom-
pllshed, as there were number
of native children attending the mission
schools. The women of India, like their
sex the world over, were more susceptible
to religious teachings than the men, and the
Hindoo and Mohammedan priests exert a
most baneful influence over the women of
that country. The effect of their religious
teachings were bad, as the Hindoo gods
were pictured as beings given up to sensual
ity and other vicIousness AS a consequence
the women of India are deceitful, they have
no regard for truth and their language is
unchaste. The address ended with au
appeal for money to maintain the missions.

ANOTHER NIAGARA CRANK.
Walter Campbell Makes n TriT
Throurh the WhiripOol.


NIAGARA FALLS, Sept. 15.-To-day Walter
G. Campbell, of Youngstown, N. Y, made
trip through the rapids of Niagara gorge be-
low the falls. Early this morning Campbell
betook himself 10 the secret depths of the
bank up beyond the old Maid of the Mist
landing and renamed in hiding there until
about noon. About this time, in company
with several friends, he was seen rowing
about the river. He was encased in pieces
of cork an inch thick strapped firmly on his
person.
AT 3 30 y IN. Campbell pulled slowly down
towards the center of the river. He drifted
down with the current far toward the Cana
dian side. AT 3:25, standing upright in his
boat he took one of tie oars and padded the
craft in the direction he desired to go, at the
same Jme steadying it, Over tne heavy
swels he rode in safety and as he neared
the first breaker of the rapids he knelt
down in the bottom Of the boat. He passed
through the first part of the rapids while in
a kneeling position and holding fast to the
sides. A huge wave in front of Buffers
elevator raised him high on its crest and
capslzed the boat. His cork suit buoyed him
up nicely At $3.50 p. N. he was seen to en-
ter the whirlpool and was carried by the
fierce current far out into the maelstrom. BY
strong swimming he soon reached the shore.
Campbell took a dog with him in the boat
and it shared his experience. He had life
preserver around his body and was also res
cued.

Sudden Return to Consciousne ess of IA

Man Supposed to BE Dead.
BALTIMORE Md, Sept. IA rather Pc
cullar episode occurred last night at Union
Station, which involved atranstlon from the
sorrowfu to the ridiculous. Shortly after a
Baltimore & Potomac train emerged from
the tunnel near Union Station the
alarm was given that a man had
been thrown from the platform.
The train was backed search
made and the rigid body of John Lacy
found. An investigation resulted in the con-
clusion that he had been instantly killed by
the concussion, and the body was tenderiy
cleaned of the mud, carried back to the
Union depot and held to await the action of
the coroner, who was summoned by tele-
phone. While awaiting the arrival of this
officer the body was placed on a stretcher
and prepared for the grave. For quite a
long time the body remained perfectly
motionless, but suddenly the corpse
began rubbing his eyes, and then glanced
about with puzzled look His
friends fastened forward as soon as they re-
covered from their surprise and helped him
from ms couch. Lacy said he felt first rate
barring a little buZzing in his head, a rather
queer feeling and some bruises about his
body. Just as he was walking out the police
sergeant entered the depot ana asked for the
stiff. The lively corpse was pointed out to
him and the sergeant at first insisted that as
the coroner had been notified, the Subject
must await his disposal, dead or alive.
Finally, however, he concluded that the
lively corpse might go.

A Prolonrcd Contest.

DIES MONIES, Ia Sept, l5,-[Special to
The EE. l-Repubttcan nominations in Iowa
do not as rule go begging. There is usu-
ally very lively Strife for them, as was the
case at Spirit Lake last week. The con test
was for nomination as representative in
the legislature and the district was com
posed Of Palo Alto, Emmett and Dickinson
counties Each county has a candidate,
and voted for him, persistently, thus pre-
venting u nomination. The convention met
at p. M, continued till late at night, re-
sumed the next morning. aud on the 35lst bal
lot majority voted for Mcfarland, OF EN-.
nett, the present member. aud he was nomi-
mated. The contest in the senatorial dls-
trict composed of Hardin, Hamilton and
Wright counties grew SO hot that post
ponement was taken till October /. 1t is
believed that the trouble has been set
tied by the withdrawal of the old candidates
and the substitution of some new men.

TWO HUNDKED CATS IN COURT.
They Are Gathered to Make Evidence
in a Society PeOnle,a Cnse


Providence, X. l., Sept. 5,-The county
courthouse here contained more than two
hundred cats to-day, which were collected
from various parts of New England The
cats were to be offered In evidence In case
which has made enemies of tho family of
Noble d. w. Demunn and Miss Caroline
Richmond, who belong to Providences -four
hundred" Each claims the ownership
of a tortoise cat. The Demunns owned
the animal, which strayed to Miss Rich
mond's house. and she kept it. The De-
muuns put IN expert testimony to prove the
age OF the cat and apparently had won the
case. The other side was given until to-day
TO put in rebutting evidence, and this con-
sisted OF the collection of cats, which had
been gathered regardless of expense by a
man who was on the road all week picking
up tortoise cats with pedigrees sworn to for
the purpose of springing them on the expert
and confounding him as to his knowledge of
ages. The expert was not here to be con-
founded. The matter was placed in the
hands of the master IN chancery and ne has
spent the whole day over the case.

Boies seems the Favorite.

DEs MoINBs Ia, Sept. 15.-[Special Tele-
gram to The BEE. l-Advices from leadr
ing democrats sin all parts Of the
state indicate THAT the democratic
convention at Sioux City next Wednes-
day will nominate Hon. Horace Boies, of
Waterloo, for governor. He was a repub-
lican until aboutlSS3, when he left the re-
puoican party on account of prohibition. AS
the democrats hope to win ant-prohibitlon
republican votes, on the issue of repeating
the law, they consider him as good bait. But
some of the old bourbons who have heard
him denounce theirtparty in the past do not
take so Kindly 70 the proposed change.
