A man named Horgens, on visiting Rogers' barn on Saturday, was badly bitten by the watch dog kept there, his leg being in such a condition as to de- mand surgical attention. The plate glassin the frontof Bechtele’s new hotel has been put in place and the doors hung, so that the beauty of the structure stands forth more clearly than ever. It i indeed a great improvoment. The colored voters of the Ninth con- gressional district will hold a convention in this city Tucsday, August 28, to select two delegutes to the colored men’s na- tional convention at Louisville, Ky., next month. John Metcalf has been appointed night watch and fireman at the deaf and dumb asylum at the Bluffs, Wo aro glad to note this as John is a faithful man and one who will do his duty to the lotter.— The Macedonian, Rev. Mr. Hubbs, who gave such satis- faction by his locture here last Monday night, on “The Black Valley Railroad,” is to_deliver the same in Omaha this evening, under the auspices of the Y, M. C. A. of that city. A team attached to one of Rogers’ bag- o wagons became frightened on roadway Saturday, and in their wild dash fairly jumped into & wagon driven by an old man named Lahman. Besides making a bad_ wreck, the old gentloman was quite seriously injured, Smith & Bogue, the recent_purchasors of The Macedonia’ Tribune, have mado an entire change in the oftico and in the appearance of the paper, which now comes out under the new heading of Tlfe Macedonian It presents a neat appear and is more newsy than ever. Temploton & Lamb are great on col- Tocting curiositios, but they havo added to their list now the strangest frenk of nature yet known in this part of tho country, it being n red bat, which was found s short diatance fsorn this city. Tho color of the bat is a_distinet red all over. Drop in and seo it. The present police force should be in- ereased in numbers as well as improved in quality. The territory to bo coy here is much larger than in most ci having no larger population, and yot there are but eight on the force. There is always one or more laid off by illness orapecial work, Just now Ofticer Clough is sick, and Officer Warner is suspended for some charges hanging over him, and there is always need of one man on some special assignment. Then divide the force for night and day duty, and there is but a meagre number loft on_duty at any ono time. The force should be' in- ereased to twelye anyway, 4 A bold robbery on a small scale was perpetrated on a Broadway pawnbroker's shop, near the new opera house, A stran. ger entered the place lute in the evening, and wanted to see some revolvers, He finally selected two, and wanted the pawnbroker to load thew. He refused, whereupon the stronge customer took some sholls out of his own pocket, placed two in the chamber of cach revolver, and eoolly remarked, ‘‘Now, if you want your pay, come out in the street, and 1'l'give it to you.” He walked out, and natural- ly enough, the pawnbroker did not care to follow the armed man out into the dark, and the fellow wade good his es- cape. Some of those who visited Denver on tho late excursion investigated the system of fire alarms there, and returned home eonvinced that Council Bluffs could im- prove greatly in that respect, It is to be ufiwd that they will be able to convince others that improvement is necessary here. tly needed. anged that the bell will tap the of the box from which an alarin is sent in, so that the public may be speedily infory of the location of the fire. The other and more essential thing is that new boxes be provided, 5o as to prevent the present liability of a blundering alarm, sending the department off on some wild chase in the wrong direction, The Sandwich Manufacturing compa- ny, from Tllinois, 1s to erect a brick building 50 by 100 feet, three stories high, on lower Main street, as a ware- “house for its agricultural machinery, Mr, Geo. W. Low is the member of the firm who will take-charge of its business here | $720. 3 make this his home. The company of the largest in that line in the , wnd the establishment of & house H here will be a great addition to the mate- rinl interests of this city. At Sandwich, 1llinois, thero are 400 hands employed. J. P. Adams, the treasurer and secretary of the company, is here arranging de- tails. He is one of eight brothers inter- ested in the business, Mr. Low has been in charge of the branch house at Lincoln, and the establishment of the house here will cause the closing of that and the re- moval of the business here, where it will be run on a larger scale than ever. The Royal Arcaneum picnic was not so Jargely attended Hntunll\y as it would have been had the weather not been so treacherous, A large number who had planned for joining in the good time in the afternoon’ were doterred by clouds and showers. Those who did attend had a morry time, however. From the grove adjournment was taken to Thos, Cavin's residence, and after a happy time the the party moved on to J. T. Oliv house, and there was music and other so- cial doings to make all happy. The mem- bors of the Royal Arcancum, when they do set out for a good time, have'it des. pite weather or other obstacles, and they show the same enterprise on the business side of the organizhtion as on the social Hence its wonderful growth and pros perity. S J. W. Rodefer having boen elected secretary and treasurer of the Mercantilo Loan, Trust and Improvement company of Council Bluffs, has accepted the posi tion and assumed the management of the company’s business, The following named persons are on the hoard of dir ors: T. A, Kirkland, C. 8. Lefferts W. Rodefer, I. A, Miller, E. T. A, e Warner Suspended. The statements made about Officer Warner, the colored policoman, to the offect that lie was drunk, and whilo so got into disgraceful row with another colored man, have led to the tomporary suspension of that officer. He will prob- able now demand an investigation or a learing, if he has any explanation to offer. If not, Officer Warner might as well resign, for there has been so much of this sort of business in the past that it is timo the weeding out process began, and only such men kept on the forco of wkers as are not themsclves peace-bre o —— CHEAP RAILROAD TICKE Chicago, $11; St. Louis, 810; St. Paul, $10; Kansas City, $5, at Bushnell's, Je2b-em o —— Work on the Streets. This promises to be a very lively week in streot improvements. The work of filling up lower Broadway will be in progress, it having been commenced last week. 1t is expected that work on Third ave- nue will also commence this week. The work of filling the cross strects from Brondway to the creck has nlrom!f' commenced, and will be carried through vigorously this week. The filling of Main strect is about completed, there being a little waitattlre lower end for the filling of Missouri ave. nue. The contract for filling up that avenue will be let next Monday, or at least bids will be received up to that time. In the meantime the stone curb- ing on Main street will be carried on. There has been some delay in getting the stone, but that is now thought to be done away with, so that the work will be car- ried on lively this week. Allof this is of course conditional on the weather, e Dr. West, dentist, 14 Pearl street. —— HALLECK ASA HERO.

Ho is still lyingat the residence of Chris. Johnson, just east of the grove in which ho was shot, and is being ten- derly cared for by his father and mother.

His father has rocoived lately o lottor from Dos Moines, not only containing words of praise and cheer, but a substan- tial testimonial in the form of $160 in money and a gold medal inscribed, *“The Poople of Towa to Witlis Hallock."” In conversation with young Hallock about the murderers azd ow he cam to bo shot, ho stated that he, with several others, was following the ruflians into the grove, and after. passing through somedense undergrowth he chanced to look back and to ono side, and saw the fugitives lying in the Lushes; raising his right hand, in‘which he held his revolver, he pointed toward them with it and said, *‘Here they are,” and the moment ho pointed his revolver at them, one of them, he could not tell which, fired the shot that pierced him through, He thinks that the wman with the heavy moustache was lying next to him, and shot him, but is not positive, as ho did not see either of theim sk e —— Real Estate Transfers, The following deeds were filed foy re- cord in tho recorder’s oflice, August 11, roported for the Bek by P.
