As had been predicted by all the Har mony band ball last night at St. Joseph's ncademy was & su-cess. Early in the evening the band discoursed some very fine music on the strects and at the hali The programme was very good and every one seemed to enjoy themselves, The orchestra was also members of the band, with the exception of Prof. Glonn. They furnished fine music. It is the mtention of the boys to give a series of balls this winter, which, if they do, shouid all be well patronized. There is trouble threatencd about th grading of Sixteenth or Missouri avenue. The railway companies whose tracks cross the avenue will not stand it and propose to fight. The claim is that froma point at the cast line of the ground occupie the Consolidated Tank Line comny about two blocks westward, the av is not under control of the city, it having been condemned for that purpose, but is still owned by private parties and the railways. 1t may prove interesting before the affair is over.

Silloway, proprietor of the Northwestern ho el o1 this city, Mr Silloway had been contemplating this move for some wecks, and having entered into a verbal agreement with John T Baldwin, the owner of the property. some days ago, he left Sunday evenmg for the Bluffs, and on yesterduy the leasc was made out and Mr. Silloway wue given possession &f the house. This i the information received at a late hou lnst night at this oftice, By the leasing of the Ogden houss.no changes are cou- templated in the management of the Northwestern hotel here.

Father McMeno- my's friends .and admirers hd thought that possibly he might be chosen, as he is a man in all ways meriting such a posi tion in the church. A telegram from St. Louis states that a meeting of the bishops was held there Thursday, at the residence of Archbisop Kendrick, for the purpose of nominating successor. Among those present wore Lowis Maria Fenk, Leaven- worth, Kas.; John Hennessy, Dubuque, Ia.; John J. Hogan, Kansas City; James O'Connor, bishop of Dibona and vicar opostolic of Nebraska, Bishop Ryan, of St. Louis, was . present also, but had no vote, being only a no;djutor bishop, Archbishop Kendrick presided over the assombly, The meeting was held in secret session, and the names of the nom- inees will not be given to the public until after they have been passed upon by the cardinel prefect at Rome. It is stated, however, that the nominee will be either Father Brady or Hennessy, of this city, «r Father Cosgrove, of Dubuque, la., but chis is only rumor, Atter H) ther's Murderer, Prof. J. J. Slattery, principal of St. P Joseph's ncademy here, is spending his | - vacation in St. Louis, his old home. An item appears in the papers of that city to the effect that he has at last succeeded in convineing the governor that the police there are making no efforts to apprehend John Flicker, the man who murdered his brother, Frank Slattery, about six months ago. The governor has now offered a reward of for Flicker's eapture, which will cause the police to fresh interest in the matter, e — Be Careful of the Babies. 1f your children are threatened with croup ':'1 any ‘h"fi,flm’;""; .I:p'll: few nlrop-.fil omas’ ¢ ci [ ) fcost for the lictle ones wo know u;. " THE DAILY BEE---COUNCIL BLUFFS, SATURDAY, AUGUST 25. 1883, SBHELBY S SHERIFF, Judge Reed Decices That the Supere vikors Made a Mistake in Re- moving Redfield. Shelby county has been stirred uj about itasheriffalty. The board of super visor's last June removed C. C. Redfleld from the office of sheriff and #ppointed T. W. Chatburn, who has since been act ing. There were no charges preferred or trinl_had, and the change therefore left Redfield hanging on the ragged edge, and subject to suspicion of havin been acting in some unscemly man n his official capacity, This herift Redfierd did not propose to suls mit to and he determined to have the matter investigated by the courts, Sui was | rought against Chatburn, the ny pointed sheriff, to show cause why he should act in that capacity. T e was brought before Judge Recd thi veek and in deciding the question he said 'hat both the constitution and the statute provided that when an officer ¢ appointed to A1l a vacancy. “he shall hole his oftice until the next regular election. and until his successor 18 elected anc qualified.” That the section under whicl the board of supervisors assumed to act in this ease and to remove Redtield only yave that body the right to remove fin the cause that the district court.conld re move a sheriff, and that their action i this matter in_ removing Redfield with out preferring charges and giving hin e and huving a trial was without au thority, ANT AND GAY, BRILL The Gathering at J e James' Home Lasst In response to the invitations issued several days ago, there was a large gath ering of friends last evening, at the re ception given by Judge W.

A change of venue was taken to Justice Schurz, who set the case for a hearing w.d.{-, declaring that it would then be heard with- out fail. One of the attorneys suggested that the witnesses might not be on hand, “It don't make any difference whether the witnesses are here or not, 1 tell you the case will be tried any way, and disposed of," and the sturdy justice sottled himself as though he meunt it, 1t is about time that some judicial sat down on the business in just about that sort of shape. o ——— Prairio chichens aud A.
