Atkinson's Attractions. The new store of Atkinson & Co., Oreighton block, was lust week the one thing that drew mere atten- tion than the ‘great flood of the Big Muddy. This firm bas for years monopolized the best millinery trade in our city, Thelr trade having increased to such propor- tions during the past year, they have found it necessary to procure morecom- modious rooms which they have found io the most cental portien of the clty, located as they now are on 15th street, but a few doors from the post- office, and carrying the finsst line of millinery goods ever exhibited in the west. They are destined to do even @ grester business than they bave been doing. The doors of thelr mew stablishment were threwn open on Thursday morn- ingand that day and the two follow- ing, they were continually thronged with visitors, who had notloed in Tam Bex the advertisement of the long lookedforevent ‘ATEINSON'S OPENING. Whether it was the advertisement in Tucx Bex that drew s0 large s crowd, or the general reputation of this firm for making fine displays at their open- ings, we do mot know, but we do know thaf eersbody came and all were ‘‘more than plessed. ‘This yoar there aro more new stiractions in millinery goods than in all other linos of goods knows, and Atkinson & Co.’s exhibited the Iatest and best to thelr delighted visitors. Fine Hats of overy Style snd Shape, Klow- ere, Ribbons,Silks, Velvets, ete.,were strang fron' the oeillng to the floor in t profgsion. The cases con- uln:: the most costly bommets, trimmed in the lstest fashions, with perfect taste and design, were much admired by the ladies. A kinson & Co. have alwsys had the repatation of carrying the finest and largeststock of millinery in Omsha, and this year they have increased their stock. © - NOW. MISING. Ioe cold sodia water is now to be had with pure fruit syraps, st Kohn & Ogyd drug ators. Thelr fouatain ' the Tatest upplistoes for the those of last year, hence they will con- tinue to deserve the name of having THE MISSOURL The Qondition of the River Yesterday. The most important change in the sitastionMondsy wasthe threatenedde- struction, within & few hours, of the Union Pacific fiat car bridge, also of several bundred feet of the embank- ment to the west of It. The railroad company concentrated all its energies yesterdayin keeping open this part of italine, and & gaog of men had | the been busy all the forenoon in bolster- ing up the embaukment with sand bags. The road made its connections, however, with the transfer depot to- day, and its trains left for the west as usual. SIOUX CITY, Telegrams from Sloux City state that the river fell six Inches yesterday and five last night. The river had ‘bagun to fall yesterday forenoon, hav- ing dropped about one inch, TBOUBLE AT WATERLOO, The Elkhorn came up Sandsy with snother sudden rise and flooded the town of Waterloo to the depth of three feet. Some of the people claimed that the rallroad embank- ment east of the town threw the wa. ter into the town and proposed to open a channel through the embank- ment. This fact was telegraphed to U. P. officisls here and Sherlff Guy sent out with & posse of constables to protect the railrosd company's prop- erty. The embankment was not cut and the river has since fallen. PICTURES ATLOAT. Oouncil Bluffs will be handed down to fuiture generations as an American Venice. Eaton, the photographer, went over yesterday and pictured her from several different points, the re- eult proving that she is the worst sub- merged clty in the country. He also made views on the Omaha side of the rver from several different points, REPORTED DROWNED, If Mr. Xavico Waldecher will re- port himself in the land of the liviog he will relieve the auxiety of hia friends, who have heard it rumored that he was drowned. He lives un the submerged portion of the bottoms in the neighborhood of Florence lake. ‘COUNCIL BLUFFS LEV:E. At the meeting of the Council Bluffs city council last Friday evenlog, the city engineer submitted the following prellminary report of a plan for the proposed levee, to protect that city: 1 A levee, extending from the northwestern round house to the Union Pacifcembankment, 8 distance terdor “slope of two feet to one. This leveo In the most ex: shot teoted with ot st s B ing. A right of way from 125 to 200 feet should bo secared, varying ac- gording o the belght of grade o be k. 2. On the south side, to guard against backwater, a system of levees —not as large or expensive as the main dyke above town—should be built, with flood gates to let out the waters of Indlan and Mosquito creeks. ‘The engineer is of the opinion that the construction of the main dyke d'lflr:, require 178,000 cublc yards of It ilurm some of the residents of upper way that the soil of both the bottom and the blaffs is totally unfit to build dykes and that its use would be little else than an ex- travagant waste of money. This ob- joction is met with the statement that the willow revetment will strengthen the dirt embankment so that it will be able to withstand any force the river will be sble to bring against it. SPOON LAKE. Thesitustion at Spoon Lake is be- coming very interesting. Several of the flat cars that form the {emporary gang way are now entirely submerged and others arejeo tipsy as to farnish & very dsngerous mode of transit. In fact one of the men who came over yesterday was of the opinion thatis risk of life was made plnzn:h in taking the trip. Extra , carloads of sand bags, and various other measures for safety sre belng it to the rescue by the U. P. company, ‘whose embankment immediately west of the flat car bridge is also threat- ened with destruction. At the U. P. hotel the fires are out, the walks are on the float and the lower floors are beginning to feel the damp. AN ICE STORM. Paal Rng-::i .bnlml 4 working, ng en- terprising o, built four ice houses last fall and flied them with solid coolness during the winter, but his houses were founded on sard, and when the floods came and best upon them they fell, two of them Sunday _sfternoon and the fce floated awsy.

The reports at the sigual service office at 9 a'elock Jast night indieated that the river was at the same general helght as fn _the morning. Reports received from Sloux City indicated a fall of one footat that polnt during the past twenty-four bours. -This will doubtless cause a subsidence of the water here. Several bridges of the rmailroads crossing creeke mear Sioox City, were broken on Ssturday night, but ‘were repaired sufficlently to permit limited travel yesterday. THE SITUATION of both around the smelting 'whm. = mh&““‘{u’fi;‘; iver, was thoroughly by Messrs. E. B. Kennedy wnd Beo, Smith, of Omaha - They devoted the entire day to the trip, a row boat.

Conversation with many of the lesding cltizens disclosed the faot that they fally sppreciate the de- state of affairs, Many of the driven from thelr homes indioated an inteotion of removing to Omahs er other polnts, as soon as they got thelr household goods out in more substantial than passengers, the uctiye business of the city s at F.«:mm. It will require mn{ weeks of dry weather to thoroughly remove the dam from walls and cellars, while ge cannot be estimated. ON THIS SIDE the water has surrounded and in- jured a number of houser, but those Of such a class that, inmost instances, a little water will not harm them. A critical examination of the shops and the smelting works showed that they were not at all hurt by the water, all foundstiops and internal srrangements belng in serviceable shape, whenever the Big Maddy shall see fit to subside to proper proportions. No amount of Tumber has been lost during the past two days, and now will not get away from the booms. The troubleamong the flat cars at the transfer on the Towa side was overcome by the most active endeavors, but that point is constantly watched for another cave In of the embankment. SLOWLY FALLING. At 3 o'clook this the river showed about two inches It not affected by local rains it will prob- ably materis lly subside by to-morrow. CUSTER POST CAMP FIRE. The Boys Out of Blue Eat Hard .Tack and Make Speeches. The Graod Army camp fire by the members of George H. Custer post, was lighted in Olark's Hall, corner Fourteenth and Dodge streets, at8 o'elock. The ball was filled with “‘old vets” and their friends. Commander Fitch presided, and after a few re- ‘marks called upon Col. Chase, who gave 8 most interesting talk, relating incidents ocourring in the late “on- plessantness.” He was followed by Hon, James H. Kyner, and hein tarn detalled interesting recollections of the war. Mr. Feank Moores belog called upon enlivened the occaston by pleasant humor and prepared the sudi- ence for their rations, which were served ont in true army style. After supper Lient. E. D. Mo- Laughlin spcke at some Jength, glving very interesting facts regarding the view that southerners took of the war. The speaker served three years in the rebel army, joining it when seventeen years old. Before he ar- rived at his msjority, however, he struck his colors and afterwards fought gallantly in the Union ranks. Darlag the evening Company H. gave a fine drill exerclse. The subject of the Grand army re- union, to be held at Lincoln next September, belng brought up, Com- rade Kyner stated that three hundred tents were to be farnished the Omaha veterans and thelr friends for that occasion, and the B, & M. railrosd company had agreed to transport them free. Tho railroed will also place at the disposal of Mr. Bunnell, at Lin- coln, forty men. who will assist in preparing the grounds and fitting up accommodations for the public. The citizens of Lincoln were also intend- ing to spare no pains to make the re- unlon a grand sucoess.

Oxama, April 25, 1881 To the Editor of The Bee: > In your issae of Saturdsy lest ap- peared an artlolo atating that I was insane, which I respectfully request you to contradict, as it might cause me a great deal of harm. I am in full possession of my intellectual facalties —probably more so than the reporter who circulated the above ramor. The simple trath is that I have been very sick with brain fever, brought on by over taxation of my mental powers, and that during te height of the dis- case I was delirlous as is generally the case inall fevers. As tomy brother clerks having watched at my bedside, to relieve my poor worn oat wife, not two, but over » dozen have sacrificed thelr rest for me, and I take this op- nity to return them my heart- alt thanks for their kindsess, Boping they may never be in need of my ser- vices under similar circumstances, but should any of them ever requireagood, faithful nurse, I ahall be but too happy 1o reciprocate the kindness shown me. fally, Bespocttolll: 5 Ds Losss, Clerk of U. ¥, Headquarters. | THE “EVER GLORIOUS.” How it is to be Celebrated by the People of Omaha. As was announced in Tme Bea fow dsys ago the coming Fourth of July will be celebrated in a proper spirit by our cltizens, and with all theenthuslasm and patriotism it will be possible to excite. A number of gentlemen belonging to the Driving Park association have taken hold of the matter in a business like way, and Propose to present attractions on that day and possibly the day following that will draw large crowds from outside, as well as necessitate the at- tendance of every resident of the city able to ge, A meeting of the members ot the Driving Park aesociation was held yes- torday In Mayor Boyd's office. It was resolved that a celebration super- for to any previous one shouldbe beld, with such attractions as chariot racing, trotting, balloon ascension, and a base ballgame. Ohalrman Boyd appolnted Mesers. Chris. Hartman, D. T. Moust ard George Oanfield as a committee of general arrangements. It was also decided that from two to four thou. sand dollars in purses wero to be of- fered, for the trotting and other con- tests, and thatreduced rates on the railroad would probably be obtained. After adjournment of the meeting the ‘committee on general arrange- ments held an informal meeting. They conferred with J. H. Plerce on the question of a balloon ascension, and talked over matters pertaining to the celebration. A meeting 1 to be held within a day or so, when a defin ite programme will be decided upou. “LO'S" RIGHT TO VOTE. Important Decision of T. S. Judges. Judges McCOrary and Dundy, of the United States court, have just ren- dered a decision in an important case, affecting the right cf an Indian to vote. John Elk Is an Omaha Indian, re- slding in the Fifth ward of this city. Previous to the last national election Elk presented himself before Charles Wilkins, reglstrar of the ward, for registry. Mr. Wilkins declined to take his pame. On election day Elk appearcd at the polls and tried toswear In his vote, but was re- fused permission. Sinoe Judge Dan- dy's declsion in tho Standing Bear case it has been evident that Indlan sufirage must next come into courts, and Moessrs. Poppleton and Webster, who were counsel for Standing Bear, conasnted to take the case of Klk into the courts, and to that end brought suit for Elk against Mr. Wilkins for damagzs to the amount of $5000. The care was submitted on proof to Judge MocCreary and Dundy, on demarrer to plaintiffs petition, at {he January term of the United States court at Lincoln, and thetr de- clslon has now been received by Col. Watson B. Smith, clerk of the court. The demurrer is sustained, but the plaintiff was allowed to amend his pe- titlon, If he saw fit todoso, E. W, Simeral, Esq., of this city, and United States District Attorney G. M. Lambertaon, of Lincoln, appeared for the defendant. No opinions were filed with the decision, though there is » ganeral wish that the judge shall do so. The case was brought, with a view to ascertalning if,Junder the 14th and 15th amendments an Indian is a citi- zen of the United States. Those amendments are in substance as fol. lows: XIV.
