Buriaa Of Mrs. Mary r lake.
Col. Robert @. ingsrsolI spoke the
funeral sermon beside the bier OF Mrs.
Mary Fiske, the author. who died in
New York recentiy. Mr.. Ingersoli
said
lin the presence Of the two great
mysteries. life ard death, we are met
to say above this unconscious house of
clay 5 Ss~ words OF kindness. regret
and love. In this presence, let as
speak OF the goodness, the charity, the
genius Of the dead. Only flowers
should be laid upon tae tomb IN iife's
last pillow: there should be no thoFns
Mary Fiske cared moi for roads nor
for beaten paths. She did not follow
in the footsteps OF others. She went
through the woods, across fields, by
the winding streams, and down the
wales and over the crags wherever
fancy led her.
'.she wrote lines that ieaped into
laughter and words that we're wet with
tears. Her pages were fiecked with
guushine, ard Swallowed in every word
were the pulse and breath OF life.
Her heart went out To aii the
wretched in this weary world. and yet
she seemed as joyous a. though grief
and death were naught but words.
She wept when others wept. but In
her own misfortune found the food Of
hope. She cared for the tomorrow OF
others but not for her own. Che lived
for to-day.
Some hearts are like a waveless
pool satisfied to hold the image of a
wundroas star. But hers was full OF
motion. life and light and storm. She
longed for freedom: every limitation
was 3 prisons walls, rules were
shackIes and forms that we're made for
serfs and slaves. she gave her utmost
thought; she praised ali generous
deeds, applauded the struggling, and
even those who failed
Meme could fall below her tity, and
none could wander beyond the cir
cusnference Of her pity. To her there
we're no ottcasts--ihey were victims.
She thought of the road they had
travelled. the thorns that had pierced
their feet, Of the deserts they had
crossed 30, instead OF seorn, she gave
them words of hope, aud all she had
she gave. a god could do no more.

hurt sought her open door. She
shielded the weak. she attacked the

gates OF day; she shed kindness rs the

A little while ago a babe was found
abandoned by It's mother, left as a
legacy to chance or fate. The warm
heart of Mary Fiske, now cold in
death, was touched. She took the
wait, held il 70 her loving breast, and
made the child her own.
I'VE pray thee, Mother Nature. 10
take this woman 10 thy breast, and
hold her there as tsnderly in thy arms

as TO THE UNION DEPOT.

II the proposition TO construct union
depot at cost OF over four hundred
thousand, conditioned upon the city
building a two hundred thousand dollar
viaduct over the tracks on Tenth street,
had been made ten years ago, or even
five years ago, it would have carried by
acclamation. To-day there is a very
general aversion to donating any bonus
to the railroad companies for giving
this city metropolitan depot accommo-
dations.
The prevailing sentiment is that
Omaha is large enough to command
proper railway transfer and depot facili-
ties without subsidizing the railroads.
On sober reflection, however, we be-
lieve the people who are most interested
in Omaha's future growth will reach
the conclusion that one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars is, after all, q tri-
fling bonus, If we can do away forever
with the annoying and damaging en-
barge that has held back Omaha for
twenty years, and make the going in
and out of this city safe and convenient.
The proposition as submitted is still
crude and cannot carry unless it is
coupled with guarantys that will assure
beyond doubt the joint occupancy Of
the depot by the Iowa roads.
The basis of this guaranty
is outlined in the letter of the president
OF the Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad.
There must be definite stipulations be-
tween the city and the Union Pacific
that the bonds asked for will be with
held until the Iowa roads have accepted
the conditions for joint occupancy Of
the depot. An indemnity bond signed
by the depot company and responsible
hackers must be placed in the hands of
the mayor before he signs quit claim
to the Qepot grounds

The Lena Marsh Cas- g.

The respondent in the mandamus case en-
titled the State of Nebraska OK rel Lena
Marsh vs William Coburn, sheriff Of Douglas
county, docketed for trial before the supreme
court at the September term, filed his an
swers to the relator's petition today. It is
doubtless still in mind that Lena Marsh and
William Ellersick were jointly arraigned for
the murder of an unnamed female child in
the city of Omaha by administering. to it
dose of carbolic acid, and that at their pre-
liminary hearing before magistrate of COM
petent jurisdiction Ellersck was discharged
while Lena was held to q higher court to an.
swer to the charge and committed to the
county jail 1t appears that at the prelimi-
nary hearing the ''indigent plea" was en-
tered by Lena, ana the court upon its own
motion, and from a kno owledge of the facts as
shown upon hearing, then and there ap,
pointed Winfield S. Strawn to appear for and
defend her against the charge preferred. The
court moreover, made the record that no
other attorney or attorneys should be per-
miLted to visit the prisoner, or counsel with
her. other than the one appointed. 1t
further appears thai this was contrary to
