The physicians report many malagial troubles arising from the present fivkle weather. There were over 5,000 loads of dirt taken out in excavating for the new Ma. sonic temple. Permit to wed was yesterday grantel Milo Russell and Cora Kinzer, both v Valley township. Joe Ross, the host of the Clifton res- taurant, makes it a point to keep his table supplied with the fat of the land, The school buildings are to bo called hereafter by the names of the streets o which they face, except the Bloome building. The work of excavating for the new Masonic templo has beon completed au work on the foundation will be sturtec right away, W. F. Gray, of Chicago, is in she city. Ho has just sunk an artesian well at Por ry, lowa, and another here for C., M, & 8t. P. R. R. Henry Hargens, the gentleman that was attacked and bit by a bull dug sowe time ago, is greatly improved, although his leg bothers him sume yet. About twenty poll tax suits are to command Judge Aylesworth’s attention to-morrow. There are still a good many delinquents whom Mr, Buuter is aftes with a sharp prod. The bids for the mason work on the Masonic temple were opened last night by the committee, but no action wa taken on them. They were laid over until next Monday evening. Harkness Brothers are building an ad- dition to the rear of their store, for an office, which will greatly im ;rove the ap pearance and add to the ¢uveniouce vf the interior of their estublis.ument. The foundation of the new Catholic church is fust reaching completion. This church, when completed, will be one of tho finest ir the country and will bo u great improvement for the city at large. The water has 80 rushed down Frank- lin street during rains as to lay bare the water mains, which will now have to be rolaid. If ever a city noeded sowmo sys. em of sewerage and drainage, Counci Bluffs does. Some pointers were gained yesterday which may lead to the capture of some o1 the four escaped prisoners. In the mean- time the old jail 18 being patched up so as to prevent the escaps of any more, i possible. ‘There are about sixty civil cases alveady filod for the September term of the supe- rior court, and Clerk Troutman is now making up the docket, The jury will be drawn next week, aud the term will open ono week from Monaay. The work on the Sandwich manufac. turing building, on lower Main street, is being shoved downpidly by the cou- tractors, Messrs, Wickham firu. This building will add very much to the im- portance of lower Main street, The colored population donned their | d. brightest ribbons and best elothes and in- dulged in & merry picnic in Glendale yes- terday. There was quite a large gather- ing, and they all seemed to be enjoying ves hugely. There were & num- ber who came over from Omaha to join 1n the doings, A peddler with a pack called at a rosi- dence in the southwest part of the and findug the servaut girl alone, guvad the chance to grossly insult h o is_desoribed as having black curly hair. It would bo a blessing to the city if some of these roaming nuisancesshould strike a man at home some day. The waterworks company had a force at work on Bryant sticet yestcrday pre- paring (o lay the air tube, which in some way or other is to bo used in connection ith the other apparatus, o that in case of need, as at tiwe of fire, the water can be shut off from the Glen avonue reser- thieves convicted in Shelby county, have been sentenced to five years each in the state penitentiary. Sherifl Chatham passed through here with the two prison- ers, and also a feeble-minded boy, whom he is taking to Glenwood, yesterday. Benedict will be remembered as the man whom Officers Cusick and Brooks caught in Omaha. He is a particularly hard one, and it will be a relief to know that the public for a time will not be troubled with him, The Ber Job Offico is getting out a neat circular to the patrons of the tele- phone, calling their attention to some important changes in the system of an- swering calls, Under the new manage- ment subs:ribers will call only by num- ber, and will do their own ringing, thus giving the operator at the central oftice an opportunity to answer all calls promp- ly. By doing this Manager Fair says that it will insure prompt attention and groatly improve the system. There has also been prepared a complete list of all the instruments and their respective num- hera. The above change takes place on the 26th inst. at 8a.m, The effort to secure $2,000 as a firm financial basis for the Young Men's Christinn association, to establish its gymnasium and start other enterprises in connection with its work, is not aban doned, although but little has been said about it publicly of late, There has al ready been socured about 81,400, and i is thought that the balance will soon b forthcoming. The association hopes to be able to its finances in such a shaj e that it can not only establish the siumm, but can employ a regular s experienced in the work, who can ¢ entire time and atéention to it. Then i will thrive more and do better work Ihey ave already looking about for jus weli o man, and by the time they find the winn they will doubtless have the needed means. The never-ending Rainer-Blackert mu tual assault case is new well into the sec md chapter. In the first. chapter Attor ucy Sears appeared for the prosecutin witness, Rainer, while Attorney Lindt, for the defendaut, kept making Scur hase hire from court to court, and fron day to day for two months before a hear ing was had, and Blackort was bound wer. Now Blackert is the prosecuting witness and Rainer is the defendant, an the tables are turned. The case camebe fore Justice Abbott,and at once a chany: o venue was takento Judge Aylesworth ¢ wurt. Whether Sears will give Lindt a nuch of a chase as Lindt gave him seem a be more the question to be determing han getting ut uny real justico in the sase. While all this may be fun for the sttorneys, the county has to pay th coats, e — Dr. West, dentist, 14 Pearl street. Ll AL .
