Ho Comes From the Kansas Division of the Union Pacific The Sioux City Line. "This lias been the most cn.joyalile event of our whole excursion," said one of the ticket agents at the close of the grand organ recital at the Tabernacle this morning. "It was worthy of this high praise. Prof. Day lies has hud charge of the or-gan ever since it was built, and under-stands it thoroughly. In response tp his touches it spoke to the, visitors from tint east in tones of sweetest melody. The members of the international as-sociation of ticket agents met at the Metropolitan hotel at :'M this morning, and at once proceeded to the Taber-nacle. Secretary Gillespie "had charge of the party. They had scarcely taken their seals' in the rear of the gallery whim the Omaha council and municipal officers, in charge of Mayor Scott, liled in and also took their places. A little delay was caused on account of the shortage of water, but when tin-all- Prof. Daynes touched the keys every one sat spell bound. He played first a fantasie of his own composition, that is well adapted to showing both the sweet tones and the power of the organ: This was followed by an eleva-tion by Batiste. The third selection was "The Pil-grim's Song" by ISatisto. As the sweet tones of the organ gave voice to this grand conception of the great French composer a hush fell over the assem-bled visitors and an irrepressible burst of applause greeted its conclusion. By request Prof.' Daynes then played "An-gels Kvo'r Bright and Fair" and closed with (lie Doxology, which showed the power of the organ, filling the immense auditorium with thunders of melody. This afternoon the ticket agents will visit various points of interest in the city. Quite a number of them will make another pilgrimage to tho lake. They were dolighted with their dip in the brine yesterday. The following is tlie list of tho visit-ors; S. B.

JOLLY G0L0E The Omaha City Council Arrives in Salt Lake City and Enjoys Itself. THEY HAVE HAD A GEEAT TIME. A Two Weeks' Jaunt Through the West-Welc- omed By Old Friends and Given the Town. Those people who are now residents of Salt Lake but who have been exiled bv circumstances from Omaha are hap-pier than they have been for many moons, conscious, as they are, of Iho fact that this city is today honored bv the grandest body of men on the face of the earth. These men consti-tute a majority of the city council of Omaha, the town which has led all other municipalities in the United States in per ccntage of increase in population and prosperity in the past decade, and every one of the visitors is a fit representative of his home re-gion. There are thirteen of the council, be-sides four other officials of the city gov-ernment. They came down from the north last night enroute homo after a two weeks outing, which one and all pronounced the grandest thing that they have ever experienced. Twelve days ago they started from Omaha, and thu ehase for pleasure has led them to San Franaisco, Portland, Tacoma, and away up the sound to Vancouver. The beauties of the Willamette valley and the grand canyons of the western mountains have been unfolded in rapid succession before their eyes, and were they not the stoutest of men they would be, worn out with travel. But they have one of the best titted out cars im-aginable, with a wealth of good things, and they have received such honors in the cities which they have visited as to mako the whole whirl a kaliedseope of delight.

At 10 o'clock this morning Major Scott and his aides appeared at the Walker house with a number of car-riages into which the visitors were slowed and the work of showing up Salt Lake's charms was entered upon. First the drive led to Capitol hill from which the panorama of tho Jordan val-ley was unfolded. Looking across to the 'riin of hills in tho distance the pilgrims from afar saw that which tliey declared to be the finest view of the trip. J he eye in dropping from the mountains turned along the green and dark parks to the river and to the town hidden under its garb of green, saving where at some point a particularly imposing edifice burst through. Away down the valley the smoke ol the smelters cur.ei upward; to the left the snow topped mountains guarded tho valley, their great, gaping sides cutting clear into the atmosphere, the rocks gleaming in the sun; to the right the blue wall of the lake smiling to show the sharp teeth of its rugged islands. For several minutes the parly en-joyed the spectacle, and then, wheeling, drove back to town and stopped before tho tabernacle, the great dome of which, like a huge egg, caught the eye of the travelers from the hill. J hey all knew what that was, as .they knew at once that tho white stone building was the temple. Inside Elder Thomas waited. Happy to tell of tho ediliee he loved, the oh man stood at. the discourse altar and gave a little history of tho house, while nearly 200 feet nway the wondering wanderers listened to his voice, raised only to a conversational pilch. The elder then gave the demon-stration of the acoustic, properties. Holding the pin a few inches above the rail he dropped it. and as the "tick" reached them the Omaha men smiled at one another. Then the elder whis-pered and asked if they could hear him. All heard but Major Wheeler. He cocked his ear toward the speaker, placed his hand to his head and waited expectantly. "Do it again, will you?" he requested. "Wheeler's deaf," whispered Osthoff. Whether or not the elder heard Henry's chuckle, it is certain that the pitch of his voice was sufficient to sat-isfy even the elder councilman. After this Professor Danes moved down upon tho great organ. The couucilmen had been told how the in-strument, which is very close to being tho largest in existence, had been built from the timbers of the mountains by home artificers. The elder regretted that the poor water supply made it im-possible to give the full tone, and then Professor Danes began. You could hear a still, small voice in the organ, away off somewhere, then a louder, clearer, exultant cry, a whistle of the wind through reeds on the shores and the groaning of a hurricane around jagged rocks, the splash of a mountain spring and the thunder of u mountain cataract, and they blended as they were one. You could hear the reed bird singing his bob-o'lin- k song on the sway-ing branch of a bush, you could heir tho roar of a grizzly away off in the wood. And all the time you forgot that the little man whom you could hardly see away down at the base of the tem-ple of music was the creator of all this. Prof. Danes pi a veil many a soft and soothing air as well as those wild, tierce oues, and the councilmcn thought it was great. And it was great. The doxology was the last effort. The mu-sician opened all the stops and let go all holds, and the first note shook the seats away back in the gallery. Louder and stronger the organ pealed, and suddenly there came a crash. The sound had broken a pane of glass in the dome and the pieces fell to tho floor below, narrowly-missin- the head of Governor Sander's, who sat in the auditorium. When it was all done the visitors went down to buy books and views and to compliment Professor Dunes, who said he had played tho organ since it was built, and to finally stop before that inepressible snecimo'n men who have found Salt Lake a pretty good place to livo in were at the depot to greet the visitors when the Union Pacific train pulled in last evening. Members of the local city council wero also on hand. The train had hardly stopped before a troop of plug hatted and linen dustered men came hurrying down the steps to set foot in Zion. They were the Omaha couneilmen whose personnel looks like this. Clarence L. Chaffee, president, a tall, lithe, willowy blondo with a 'happy smile and a penchant for selling lwui-be- ''- - F. L. Blumer, a short, heavy set citi-zen wearing his initial silk hat with all the fervor of one used to such a thing. Blumer is a real estate agent. Ed. P. Davis, a d machinist with hands that bear witness of belonging to a man who can work with those members as well as with his head. Davis and Chaffee are twins and they look very much alike; especially Davis. Frank J. Kaspar, the quietest man in the lot, is a brickmuker and carries a wholo lot of sense behind a genial smile and a fiaxon mustache. Frank has a grip on the Second ward which makes his seat in the council perpetual. John McLearie, a little man with a nervous aspect, is a machinist also, and has come right up from the wrench and lathe. He was elected at large at the recent November election. Ed Morcarty was recently born into theranksof Blackstone'sdisciples.While engaged as elerk of the county court he studied law and ' was admitted to prac-tice last year. Ed gets his strong pull from the friendships he, made in dealing out marriage licences. If the newly married women of Omaha could vote Ed's sinch would be worth raffling. He comes from the Seventh and is ready and willing to make a speech on the slightest provocation. B. F. Mudsen is the silent marine of the council. He came from ward No. 1 and is one of the newly-lai- d couneilmen. Description fails when Henry Osthoff is reached. His mild, gentle demeanor, his wealth of adipose tissue, and his bright, bald head, make him a person-age by whom the democrats of the Fifth ward' swear. Osthoff achieved a na- - of American enterprise the wandering photographer. Then they took to carriage again, rode all over the. town, visiting Liberty park and the artesian wells and stopping to gather and cat water cresses without salt at the big wells in tho southeastern part of town. It was noon before they had seen all they eared to, and then the'v returned to the Walker house for din-ner. In the afternoon a special train was taken at 2:47) for Garfield beach, where Omaha's municipal government is now disporting itself, Ed. O'Connor having telegraphed ahead for twenty bathing suits; one boy's size for Oleson, one short a'nd pear shaped for Osthoff, and a long, clinging, spirituello suit for Major Bal-combe. This evening a trip will be taken to the hot springs and possiblv a ride will follow to the Fort. The party leaves at 8 tomorrow morning. tional reputation about eight years ago, his picture being published all over tho country. Rutherford B. Haves owned a store building in Omaha, which Mr. Osthoff rented and operated as a liquor store. It was about this time that the was being sanctified as a temperance man and e Field came all the way from Chi-cago to interview OsthofT. Tho result was famo which is undying. The New York Graphic pictured Osthoff and the press of the land took up the matter. Mr. Osthoff is a cool headed and con-servative man and a first class repre-sentative of his constituency. Theodore Olsen is a little chap with a shrill, boyish voice and the ability to surprise everybody by presenting ami carrying through 'good things for his people. Ho is all right, even if he isn't very large. Ed. O'Connor is the youngest mem-ber of the council. He is about 2G years of age, and comes from the Fifth ward, lie was elected as a democrat from a republican stronghold, and is quite popular. William G. Shriver is perhaps the most amiable and good nat tired man in the world. Ho has a personal magnet-ism which wins friends everywhere. He is a republican and lives in the sixth ward. A. 11. Sander is an eighth warder and a good num. He is a merchant and can represent the eighth again if he wants to. Daniel H. Wheeler, the senior mem-ber of the council in years, is a lightiug republican, hailing 'from tho Fourth ward. He is an insurance agent, and is the most accomplished parliamenta- rian in the party. Ho was for some time secretary of the Omaha fair asso-ciation, and is away up in Masonry. Major George L. Dennis is the plumb-ing inspector of the city of Omaha, be-ing oue of Mayor "Cushing's ap-pointees. James Flannery is, besides being what is commonly called a thorough-bred, the street commissioner of the Nebraska metropolis. He, like Deuuis, is a democrat. St. A. D. Balcombe is the patriarch of tho party. He knows more about paving and the like than anybody else who ever struck Omaha, aiid it was under his eye as chairman of the board of public works that the city grew iuto the best paved municipality 'in the west. Major Balcombe is nu man. if new spaper meu ever become ex. having been for several vears editor of the Omaha Republican, "in personal appearance lu is a tall, slender man wah a long gray beard, an eye that LOCAL BKKVITIKS.

An Enjoyable Evening with Fait Lake's Mont l'npular Muil lHlii. The benelit last evening in honor of Messrs. W. E. Weilie and Joseph e netted nearly $000 and was in every way a grand success. A large and fashionable audience was in atten-denc- o and hearty applause greeted every number on the programme. Tho concert opened with an overa-lure- , Auber's "Black Domino" by the orchestra. Mr. Mclntyre followed with an exquisite fugue by Rhoinbcrger. He is a pianist of undoubted talent' and plays with wonderful feeling. Miss Jennie Hawley sang "In Old Madrid." She has a rich contralto voice, and tilled the theater with pure, sweet melody. She was greeted with a perfect storm of applause, and was compelled to repeat the last verse be-fore the audience would allow the con-cert to proceed. A clarionet solo by W. V.. Simms was well rendered. After the "British Pa-trol," exquisitely rendered by the or-chestra SignorCampobello sang "Largo al Facotiint" from "The Barber of Se-ville." SignorCampobello lias become a great favorite, and he was applauded to the echo, and by way of thanks sang an exquisite little ballad. Mr. Weihe followed with the andante and linalo of one Mendelssohn's exquis-ite concertos. He is an accomplished artist and played with exquisite skill and feeling. So enthusiastic was the audience that ho was compelled to play three encores. Mrs. V. M. C. Silva's "Ave Marie" was a wonderfully artistic performance. She was enthusiastically encored, to which sho responded with "Stella Sho has a beautiful voice and sings with both feeling and ex-pression. Messrs. Smith and Sharp fol-lowed with a serenade, flute and horn, and the concert then closed with a Wagner march by the orchestra. Messrs. Weihe and Mclntyre will in a few days leave for Europe, and there continue their musical studies. In taking their departure for the classic conservatories of Europe, the re-cipients of last evening's enthusiastic ovation bear with them unmistakable assurance of Utah's profound interest in their artistic, welfare. They have been at all times among tho foremost in promoting tho exquisite art in this young territory, and are essentially a native product. Mr. Weihe, although ushered into this life amid tho picturesquely rugged confines of Norway, has been, by voluntary ad-option, a "son of Utah for sixteen years. One year was spent in the pursuit 'of his profession, under the tutelage of Prof. Joachim, the eminent instructor of Rrussels. The rest is the result of his own assiduity and natural genius. Mr. Mclntyre, is a nativoof Utah, hav-ing been born in t.iis city, the citl.'ns of which experience a deep and abiding interest in his future, lie will proceed at once to Berlin, where he will matriculate for a course of three years.

Heaps of Eotting Garbage That is Allowed to Block Up the City's Alleys. AN EPIDEMIC IS THEEATENED Through the Carelessness of the City's Health Authorities The Times Investigation. This morning The Times reporter continued his cruise over the filth and hot beds of disease that abound in the city's alleys. A new supply of disin-fectants was procured, and by their aid he managed ' to survive the journey. The experience was, however, one not to be forgotten, and how some people manage to live alongside disease breed-ing heaps of rotting vegetable matter, from which tho germs of typhoid fever and kindred diseases seem to dance in tho burning rays of tho August sun, still remains a mystery. The section of the city taken in this morning was the alleys in the block be-tween Second and Third South streets and Main street and the State Road. In the doorways of the houses in these alleys were seen the faces of tired and sickly women, whose nostrils are con-tinually greeted by sickening smells. In the tilth of the alleys played pale, puny children, breathing into their lungs continually the stink of all stinks. Puny babes wailed mournfully in the arms of pale and sickly looking moth-ers, and every breath but helped to dwarf and stunt their young lives. The first glimpse into the interior of this block was from the rear window of a house on Second South street. It looked out onto a barnyard adjoining a neighboring livery stable. Here, as a rule, is piled up a great mountain of manure. But this is not so bad. There is a restaurant near, and alongside the manure pile is heaped up the refuse from it. Rotten vegetables, scraps of decaying meat, old stinking bread, over which is thrown the worse dregs of soup, spoiled eggs, and over this, to hide it from sight, is sprinkled a thin layer of straw. From the wholo a most foul and sickening odor arises, and the grim visage of deadly disease smiles out from the stinking vapor. The reporter then dived into Victoria alley, which runs from the state road into the heart of the block. This alley is not itself in such i..td condition as most of the narrow thoroughfares in the city, but it leads up to a very well of foul smells. Just in the rear of the postoflice is an open square, into which the alley leads. In this open square is an excavation about the size of a cel-lar for a good-size- house, and from this hole for the entire summer have been floating germs of deadly disease as they have been nursed iuto life by the action of tho sun on every form of gai oage Known to mankind. From the appearance of this vile hole, it has been a dumping place for garbage for years. The refuse from stables is rolled in here. On it are heaps of rot-ting vegetables, scraps from restau-rants, tin cans, old clothes that have been reduced to masses of crumbling tilth by the action of rain, and battered tin cans and broken glass and pottery Ever and anon a layer of straw has been thrown over this mass of filth r,T' to hi.d'reeniitblfirnoKm thweithpubnloicisesome Ihe smell is, however, there. It gaze, vades the interior per- of the whole and fills the miserable homes soqfuathree poor unfortunates who are compelled to drag out their existence in its im mediate vicinity. There is still" another alley in this block which crys out loudly for atten- tion from the Wrd of health. This a ley is short and runs, into the block from the State Road,-ins- t Woria south nf alley. It.runs of two restaurants, twaloo,ng the rear Chinese saloons a laundry and back ?

LAID TO REST. The) Obsequies of James E. Calne Largely Attended. Ill t ho haste of making up tho forms of Tim Times yesterday, a notice of the funeral of James E. (Vine,. Sunday fore-noon, which was in type, was over-looked. The obsequies took place from the family residence at 11 a. ra., and were largely attended by the friends of tho deceased and tho family. The floral offerings wero profuse and elegant, and were tendered as evidences of tho re-gard and esteem in which the unfortu-nate young man was held. A large delegation was present from Park City, and brought with thcin a handsome floral design. Bishop O. F. Whitney and Arthur Brown, Esq., were the speakers, and they spoke feelingly and eloquently of the many merits and manly accom-plishments of the departed. Mr. Brown referred to the unfortunate fate of Mr. Caine, and cried out aloud for to visit his assassins. The music was furnished by Mrs. Pugsley, Miss Pratt, and Messrs.

' The Hot te Makes an Appeal For the (lentleiuan. A very nice thing for the Anaconda Racing association to do just now would be to reinstate Mr. Matt Cullen of Salt Lake, says tho Butto Intermountain. The Montana races would amount to very little without outside horses and outsido money to back them, and while we have no desire to suggest any un-bending of tho diguity of the Anacouda race judges, who did a perfectly correct thing according to tho light they had. wo would suggest that, now that tem-porary resentment and passion have subsided, a new and fuller investiga-tion be given the subject. The Inter-mountain docs not believe that Mr. Cullen wrote the card so inconsiderately published by the Standard, and did not fully appreciate the general import of the charges it contained. He was misled in a moment of passion into some expression of an-ger, but we do not believe it can he shown that ho wrote or indicted the card or knowingly authorized its publr" cation. Mr. Cullen is one of. the most liberal patrons of the western turf, he has the fastest horse perhaps in the circuit, and is willing to back him. Now is a good time to display a little magnanimity. Mr. Cullen is not the only man who h:u kicked at adverse decisions on the Montaua circuit. Re-instate him. The Sioux City Line. A Boulder, Col., correspondent ol the Denver Republican says: The railroad Purveyors for the Transcontinental lino lo go from Denver via Boulder, Middle park and the Bear river country, are still at work finding or hunting for ucw aud more feasible routes to climb over tho hills near Buchanan pass. The last survey was made up Four-Mil- canon, vca Sunshine. Ii is claimed here by persons who profess lo be posted that the road will bo built before another year has gone by. It is not the Burl-ington which is backing it, but the Sioux City company. Mr. McLean, representing that com. pany, when first here got twenty citi. .ens of Boulder to sign a $20,000 guar-antee that, when tho Denver, Colorado and l'aeilie asked for a right of w'av through Boulder it should be procured. The company, on Ihe other hand, prom-ised to put up its machine shops here. There are some who say Ihe scheme is gotten up only to make some other road buy the franchise, but those on the in-side say there is not a railroad company now leading to Denver which is iu shape to buy a franchise, and that the enterprise is legitimate and is backed by sufficient capital. Those who are supposed to ba in the innermost temple have invested to no little extent, but very quietly, in Boulder real estate and iu farms near by. Altogether tho out-look would indicate that there were men of money at the back c.f it all, and that tho indications that within a year Boulder will have another road from Denver making its way westward will be fulfilled.
