V.Tuner26._ SUBSCRIPTION RATES: 0 centa per week $10.00 per Yoar OFFICE: No. 7 Pear] Street, Near Broadway. " MINOR MENTION. See Joseph Reiter's spring styles. Cheap Railroad Tickets at Bushnell's Additional local on seventh page. The city council meet again to-morrow evening. Piling has commenced for the Sixth stroot bridge. , The Union Pacific band is to play here for the Driving park and the races. The case of Dr. Cady, for fast driving, has been continued until to-morrow. The Harmony band is to go to Malvern to furnish music for the celebration there on the Fourth. Wm. Lewis’ express wagon and team made a lively but brief runaway flurry on Broadway yesterday, doing little damage however. Mr. George Schindelee is building a neat residence on Oakland avenue, and the same will soon be ready for occu- pancy. D. Morton, William Gates, J. E. Co- zert, M. Welch and John Kelley were yuwnl:i taxed §7.60 in police court for too much drink, D. A. Benedict has placed some very attractive lettering ont{n windows of the Towa State Savings' institution, bit of fine art surely. Mr. Burnham’s new residence at the head of Oakland avenue is now being t;inud and will be ready for occupancy y the first of July. Sheriff Guittar left last evening for Eldora, taking with him the colored boy Johnson who is sentenced to a term in'the industrial school, 0. H Lucas, a well-known and widely A neat soquainted resident of Lewis township, | PoB is being pushed forward by his man; friends upu democratic un’did.nh lu{ sheriff, Rev. Bishop R. Dubs, from Cleveland, he turned over the money he would no longer be held responsible, nor his bonds- men liable, Tho northern approach to the Market street bridge has been so cut away as to necessitate repairs, The banks of Indian creek continue to =|crumble off. Where it will end, if some- thing is not done to stop the ruin, is & doleful problem to those owning property along the creek. If half as much labor was used in cleaning up the alleys as has been used in issuing proclamations about the matter, the city's health would be less in danger than it is at present. More stone is being used in an attemnpt to stay the cutting away of the creck banks near Madison strect. The ap- proach to the foot bridge there has been cut out letting down one of the bridges. Justice Abbott tied a double hard knot Saturday evening; one of the couples be- ing C. Linderman, the head cook at the Ogden, to Miss Lena Wolf. The other couple consisted of O, H. Perkins and Miss Malinda Unger, both of Illinois, Miss Barbara Markel's concert, this evening at Dohany’s, promises tobe a treat to all music lovers, and a com- i t tothe young artist, in whom Council Bluffs people take so much pride and interest, L[‘lw sale of seats indicates that the house will be filled tooverflowing. Mr. Probstle is building a two-story brick building on Broadway, 22 by b0 fect, on the site of his old l’l’nrnmn shop, which building he has moved back to Pierce street. Mrs, Mynster is prepar- ing to build on adjoining lots on Broad- way a double front three-story brick block, which will be another great im- provement. H. F. Parnum and B, A. Leavitt were arrested Sunday night at the request of a saloon man named _Lund, who claimed that they came in there anddemanded drinks, and on being informed that there was a private party only in the saloon, and asked to leave, refused to do so. Judge Aylesworth discharged them and taxed the cost against Lund. For the information of the police at the transfer, it is stated that a confidence gnma was played there one day last week which a young Engllshman lost $5. e crook hired him to go across to a building where some of the employes room, and help bring to the depot some Just after they had started off they were called back sharper No. 2, who told No, 1 that the 0 was al- ready there at ths depot, he having brought it over. No. 1 was about to settle with him, and in doing so borrowed 86 from the greenhorn, and then started Ohio, will preach in the German ui at the Evangelical church, eorn::"lgiag: street and avenue, ti’lil evening at | back. 8 o'clock. The report comes from Atlantic that “Cabbage” Ryan and two of his pals are under arrest there for playing the three- eard monte trick on a countryman, whereby the victim lost $125. Jacob Kampf, known all over the country as the proprietor of the Avoca brewery, has leased the same for a term of years to Peter Wiese of that place, who assumes possession the first of Au- gust. Carl Cramer tells some hard stories about the Kotzenster boys, some three or four in number, who are neighboring children. He says they have broken the windows out of his house, whipped his boys and insulted the old woman. A woman named Addie West, who is evidently not in a very favorable condi- tion for rough handling, complains that her husband, Charles West, has assaulted, Battered her, and sbused her so that she wants him arrested and dealt with. An information was yesterday filed Schroder for keeping his saloon mn Sunday night. Officer Warner ims that there was a crowd in there making much noise, and then when he tried to quiet them down seme one threat- ened to t him, and he had to leave. Col. Keatley was the attorney who de- fended M for the murder of the two men negr Pacific Junction, and whose t::tnarln the crime, Clanser, has just n arrested, as narrated in yesterday's Bk, ;:wua hndb fig}\\t to keep ol- Crary from hanging, but he got off with with a life sentence. Clanser has since admitted the crime, but says McCrary was with him in the perpetrations. Some wreckers ?_)ent a large portion of the Sabbath in digging out a lo which had been swept down the creek the flood, and so buried in mire that only its logs stuck up above ground. When Qmfie lounge washed off, instead of findine it of some account, if proved to be an old arid almost worthless one be- fore it had been made still worse by the mud and water. They left it in disgust. George Drake, of “‘Our Meat Market," who has boen empowered to select the ox for the Fourth of July barbicue, and to . take charge of the ceremonies, has, after msbout considerably, picked outa ing three-year-old from William ‘s herd. 'The animal is s big one, weighing nearly a ton, and if, under his superintendance, there are not some jucy, tender cuts for éu crowd, Tus Brr w:li miss its guess. The examination of the boys in St. Joseph's academy began yesterday and progressed very satisfactorily, showis that the pupils had availed themselves ol the excellent instruction of Prof. Slat- to s very creditable extent. The school shows itself to be in excellent con- dition and as it is an institution of which the city at ‘large should feel proud the eitizens should accept the invitation to attend the continuance of the examina- tion to-day and see for themselves. The exhibition to be given by the school this evening will without doubt also merit a erowded house. The farce of trying to make the pro- prictors of the tgmrfio house Mnunpbo- cause the sewer back of the house was a nuisance, came to an end yesterday, the defendants being discharged. Ferguson & Son, in the first place, do not own the operty, and in the next place the sewer 18 one built by and belonging to the city, and the Pacific house sewer simply emp- ties into it. The prosecution amounted, therefore, to the city prosecuting the city, As there is no doubt that the sewer where it empties into the creek is a nuisance, the city should take care of it, or else stand & fine itself, off to get it changed, and forgot to come | i The experiment was made last fall of having private citizens take the plants belonging to Bayless park to keep for the winter, on condition of returning them, or their oquiu!cnt in slips, this spring. The experiment seems to have proved a failure so far as the park is con- cerned, as none of the plants have been secured this spring, some having been frozen, others lost, and others neglected. The park policeman has succeeded in trac- ing up some of the flower pots, however, two at least, but they were in the cellar, where there was three feet of water, and he did not care to wade out after them. Mr. Rose, of the firm of Rose & Me- Mahon, has had another dark shadow of sorrow fall upon him and his by the death of Mrs. &(IIB'B brother, Robert C. A PROTEST. Property Owners Klonz the Creek Object to Being Crowded to the Wall Thelr Opinion of the Council's Ac- tlon Requiring Them to Fill Streets. At a recent meeting of the eity eouncil aresolution was offered by Alderman James, and adopted by the council, or- dering the filling to grade of Broadway from Sixth street to Thirteenth street, of Mynster street to avenue A., and av- enue A from its east end to Thirteenth street, the expense of the same to be borne by the adjacent property owners. The action of the council has awakened no little criticism, and a formal protest is being prepared which will probably be presented at the next mecting of the council.. The filling up of these streets will doubtless serve as a protection to a good deal of property, by preventin the overflowing of the creek anc the carrying of the water onto property away from the creck, but there are other interests to be considered, and others who are entitled to a voice in the matter. heavy burden are those whose property is between the streets which are ordered filled and the creek itself. Such will gain no protection from the filling of the streets. The high grado of the street may keep water back, but the water will nevertheless sweep over their lots, and flood them. Many are ready enough to say, ““Why, let those folks fill up their lois too.” It is very easily said, but the condition of some of these, in fact man of these people, should be considered. have They just met with a heavy loss by flood, and are straining every nmerve, and using their means to repair damages, raise houses, fill lots, build levees, etc., and now the council orders them to go to the additiona! expense, and that, too, at once, of filling the streets. They protest against this as being ‘‘crowding the mourners,"” The force of this protest is increased when it is borne in mind that this addi- tional expende does not help protect those whose property is between the street and the creek. and hence they feel that, just at a time when they are suffer- ing from arecent loss, and are carrying al“the burdens they can, that the coun- cil shows little consideration in demand- ing of them that they shall lift a still heavier burden, and lift it at once, not for their own protoc- tion, but for the protection of those who are away from the banks of the creek, The following communication of Col. Cochrane has been commended as show- ing a spirit of progress and enterprise, and represents the feelings of some on the other side of the question: Councin Buurrs, Ta, June 20, 1883, To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of the City of Council Bluffs, lows. Inasmuch as you are about moving in the grading of streets in which I have a property interest, viz: Lower Broadway, b[ynntur and Washington avenue, and the cross streets connecting, 1 take this method of removing all impediment on Ware, who after an illness of months, breathed his last at their home onSixth lvelmwelterdny morning at 8 o'clock. Mr. Ware has been affected by lung troubles for several months past and has been gradually failing in strength, though hopeful to the last. He was planning to start for California with friends, to test the ibility of getting help by a cli- matic change but his failing strength has caused delays and prostration me complote a few days since and death rapidly and even suddenly followed. He was & young man, only thirty years of age, and yet of very ripe thought and broad culture, his education in the best of eastern institutions having been very thorough and his late study and reading being extensive. The honors which he won in his classes, with the rapid develop- ment of later years, marked him as a man of more than ordinary gifts. The death coming so soon after that of their little daughter renews and intensifies a double portion of sorrow to Mr, and Mrs, Rose and calls forth the tenderest sympathy. The remains, after a private service at the house, will be taken to Maassachusetts, his old home, for inter- rsn:im and placed in the family grounds at lem, o ——— A large assortment of fire works for sale cheap at W.

Private improvements now 't:) -};e made bin the ofil;&:‘lat sub- ject amages by periodis over- flow-: cannot now be estimated at more than half the cost of construction; but with the streets made up to grade the property would be desirable and first class, and would increase in value 26 to 40 per cent after deducting cost of grading. I hope all concerned will at once promptly shoulder the burthen of the grade, as the remedy against new disasters can be had no other way. Respectfully, A. CocHRAN, 1t is all well enough for an editor who has not a cent's worth of property in- volved in the matter to commend this, but the additional remark that ‘‘he is known as one of our largest property owners, and carries on two large farms, where he spends his summers,” should be also kept in mind. All those who are called on tp pay this tax, are not so fortunately fixed as Colonel Coch- ran, and while his communication shows enterprise, it would come with better grace from some one who has to tugand sweat to lift his portion of the expense ordered by the council, One worthy widow, for instance, had her home almost ruined. It was her all. Her friends and sympathizing citizens have contributed '20&0!‘ more in order toget her house repaired, and she is struggling to get her lot and home in shape again. It does very well for some man with ‘‘two farms and one of our largest property owners,” to urge the ad- ditional expense of filling the streets, but her voice should not be silenced. Be- cause one such man is able to raise his share is no reason why the widow should be forced to lift a heavier burden. If all were able to bear it, it would doubtless be a grand thing, and a great and needed improvement. Some of them are able, but those who are not should be considered. Tt is doubtless true that the filling of these streets will increase the value of property, but to crowd this onto the property owners, before the flood which ruined their property has dried, and when they are using all available means to re- pair damages, and gain a little more pro- tection, is a strange inconsistency with the sympathy shown on paper and in talk, and th who have made actual contributions to relieve the sufferers. Another point urged by these citizens is, that the city has already turned its water courses into Indian creek, and then calls on those who live on the creek to take care of themselves, and to stand the ruin as best they can, There are many citizens who protest against the filling of streets boiu,i taxes to adjacent property, anyway, and they will sympathize with those called on to pay, so far as this is concerned at least. Altogether the council may expect a strong protest, but if not so strong in numbers as many protests, yet the con- dition of the signers should be considered. Instantly Relleved.
