The Methodist people OF Omaha have s
pleasant custom of extending a public recep.
tion to Resident Bishop John p. Newman OIL
his return from long absences. Such q wei.
como was given him last night at the First
Methodist church, under the auspices
OF the Omaha and Council Bluffs
Methodist Ministers association, anc
creased by tho fact that Bishop ant
Mrs, Walden shared in the greetings he
slowed. Mrs. Newman, on account ST
WEAKNESS caused by her long trip, was not
present.
The formal exercises, conducted by Rev.
DR.. j. b.. Maxheld. presiding elder Of this
district, were opened with PRAYER by Rev.
DR.. Tindall of the Seward street church.
Kew. Frank Crane, pastor of tho First
cnuren, then Delivered an address of wei.
come on behalf OF the ministers OF Omaha
and Council Bluffs, and Rev. DIR. J. W..
Shank, editor of the Christian Advocate. ex-
tended the greetings OF the laymen.
Bishop Newman, 10 responding, took occa.
sion to say in the first place that he was
happy TO announce that all was quiet
on tho Sandwich islands. II be.
llieve," he continued, that Gresham's
letter is tho greatest hoax of the genera
ION" AT this point he abruptly droppet
the subject of Hawaii to express his happI
ness that he and Mrs. Newman had safely FL.
turned from n trip Of Ii, 900 miles by sea auG
1000 by land without having paid tribute to
Neptune for n single hour. They went 70
the table four times u day on ships and then
circulated among the unfortunate ones who
were not able to go to the table at all. The
bishop announced that he would remain If
Omaha about n month and woulC
then go east TO be present az,
the dedication of some churches, anu
then, after returning to Omaha for a briet
stay, would sail for Europe TO hold con.
ferences. He would he absent about five
months.
Bishop Walden, in returning his thanks
Tor the welcome extended him, said that the
delegates to the last general conference
would long remember the cordial hospitality
shown them by the people of Omaha. He
imagined that delegates from the far east
were about as much surprised when they
got out here as F,nglishmon were who last
summer visited Chicago. He called atten.
ton to tho fact that Nebraska is one of the
Methodist states of the union; that is, ono
in which the members of the Methodist
church outnumber the combined member
ship of any three other denominations. This.
fact explained the deep interest the Metho.
dist church has in the state, He emphasized
the Importance of the work of the church In
Omaha by saying that the city and Douglas
county contained about one-seventh of the
population of the state; that the evangelical
tion Of the country could not be effected
without the evangelizatlon of it's large cities
and that this was not possible without the
fire and fervor and faith of Methodism.
After the addresses of the bishops the
several hundred present shook their dis.
tlnguished ecclesiastical chiefs by the hand.

DIR. sLEEPER's RIGHTS.
Claims of an Omaha Inventor of a Mag
netic Treatment system.

Claims of an Omaha Inventor of a Mag
netic Treatment System.
In a half column article that appeared in
the Philadelphia Record q short time ago
DIR. A. d. Arsonval, a French inventor and
physician of nigh repute, was proclaimed to
be the originator of a magnetic appliance,
consisting of a glass or wooden cylinder.
around which is wound one or more layers
of light electric light cable.
"This,'' says the Record, CONSTITUTES a
sort Of s%olenoid, in the interior of which a
patient to be treated is placed. The French
inventor claims that by thus subjecting the
patient to the influence of the oscillating
waves of magnetic fluid wonderful thera-
pcutic phenomena are produced, noticeably
among which is the increase Of physical
nutrition in the patient"
1t seems, however, that Omaha is in a
position to dispute a part of the claim OF
the Record, insofar as the origin Of the in
vention is concerned, for DIR. &. l.. Sleeper
of this city insists that he is the inventor of
this system Of magnetic treatment, and has
been operating an institute here for the
treatment of cases in this manner for moro
than Il year.
In speaking of the matter, DR.. Sleeper said
that he had been pursuing experiments in
this direction for more than twenty years,
and ever since the fall of 1888 has
in the Record article, in his own house. He
said that Il description Of the mechanical
construction of his appliance was minutely
detailed in the May numbc of the Omaha
Clinic, and he was of the opinion that it
would nave been an easy matter for any
physician TO have instructed one like it
from that description. About two years ago,
he filed an application for a patent at the
patent office at Washington, since which
time he has been using the appliance for the
treatment of disease, and with most ~flatter-
ing results. DIR. Sleeper feels that what
ever credit is due for this electrical inven-
ton properly belongs to him, and he is un.
willing TO have 1t uniustly accorded to an.
other,

AInnn ON Inc Prairie-

The day was in that transitory state
when twilight fingers in the lap of day and
darkness struggles for the ascendancy. Tho
sun hung in n great red ball of lurid fame
betwixt heaven and earth there was a feel
ing of profound quiet which seemed to settle
on all things animate and inanimate. The
birds, the insects, the very trees and sprout.
ing plants were for the moment hushed as If
in expectancy of some unforeseen, some mex
plicable something which seemed to per-
wade the very atmosphere. A bull frog CUR
gled softly MS he fell back into the limpid
water. Suddenly, over the brow of n distant
hill, there appeared a solitary man, seated
astride a great bay horse; he cast one long
sweeping glance around him and then went
back over the brow of the hill again. And
ahat same night over 700 people were turned
away unable to gain admission to the opera
house where ''She Couldn't Marry Three
was being played to the most delighted au-
diencc of the season.

It takes time to give a town the airs
and ways of a metropolis, so too does 1t
take time, patience and capital to estab-
lish for ones business a reputation for
excellence and fair dealing. For years
w. ). Balduff has stood as the repre-
sentative caterer OF Omaha, having a
position hero analogous to that OF
delphia, acquiring this reputation
through q personal attention to all the
details of his business, giving to 1t u
thorough training acquired from
all the hest establishments of II
similar kind in the east. Bal
duff, since his occupancy OF his
beautiful store on Farnam street has had
q desire to add to his business u lunch
con feature, a quiet place whore ladies
down town shopping, and where bust
ness men who have an hour at midday
might be served with refreshments,
~croquettes. patties, in addition to an ice
or some of the dainty creations of the con-
fectioner's art. And the well known ca
terer has at last realized what has long
been his dream, his establishment now
being in q position to serve patrons with
oysters in all forms, while from l1:30 to
9 he serves q hot luncheon that for ex-
cellencc of cooking and completeness of
service is not excelled by any
similar place west of New York.
| The bill of fare is always we'll consid-
cred and patrons will find at Balduff's u
pleasant air of elegance and refinement
which has not been q distinguishing
feature of places of a similar kind in the
city. There has been q crying need for
just such q place that, free from res
taurant features, would still at certain
hours serve a luncheon speedily and
we'll. Now that Balduff has met the
want, the public is invited to judge of
the excellence of the cuisine as found in
the ~cosiest place in Omaha.

Dave McMurray, a well known butcher
who worked for eight years at Swift's pack
ing house. has been on a spree for so long that
the fellow has about lost all his reason. The
police arrested him as a plain drunk, but he
acted so ''loco' that Judge Fowler thought
he would DO a good subject for the insanity
commissioner to sit upon and sent him up
to the county Jail for that pur
pose. McMurray has run through consider
able money of late and will die from the
effects of drink if some friend don't rustic
\ him off to n gold cure institute or asylum

Criticised n Recent Decision.

In a case lately brought before the supreme
court of Pennsylvania the court decided that
"Where young persons without experience
are employed to do work at dangerous ma
chimes the employer must give suitable in
structions as to the manner of using them,
and warning as to the danger of careless
ness, and if he n~eglects such or gives i'm
proper instructions, he is liable, If by reason
thereof injury results to the employee"
This might be construed very widely, but
the Machine Wood Workers Journal inter
prets it as follows:
In other words a mill owner may take a
young person and place him beside a rip saw,
give suitable instructions and warn him that
Ii his hand comes in contact with the revolving
saw it will be bad for the hand, and then con-
sider himself as having complied with the re-
quirements OF the law according to the decision
Of the supreme court OF Pennsylvania. If the
young person suffers injury through inexperi-
gave him suitable instructions and warned
him of the danger of the machine. We infer
from the above decision that a middle-aged or
elderly person may be put to work at danger
GUS machiues without receiving suitable In
structions or being warmed as TO their danger,
etc. Great is the supreme court OF Ponnsyl-
vanin. #....
