The city fathers meet to-morrow even- ing, or will try to. New Fall Styles of Hats just received from New York at Bliss’, Fugene Motlez was complained of Sat- urday for assaulting a boy named Meis- ner. The Danahs society is nrrnm}inq for a grand ball at Bloom & Nixon's hall, Sep- tember 8, v Rev. 0. W. Newton has been appointed tor of the African Methodist church 1an this city. The_receipts at the Union Stock yards Saturday, were 34 cars, and the ship- ments 104 cars. Those interested in prohibition are re- quested to meet at Bloom & Nixon's hall mnext Thursday evening. The board of trade is to meet one week from to-night, instead of to-night as previously announced. Rev. T. J. Mackey, rector of St. Paul's church, is expected home from his California trip this week. Sneak thioves visited & Main street meat shop Saturday night, but got little to reward them for the trouble. A telegraph wire is being stretched to the fair grounds, and a branch Western Union office will be established there during the fair and races. A number of Neola's business men are pledging $10 of support to the enterprise of strotching a WHBPIIOXIB wire between here and Avoca, Mayor Bowman has started for Oska- loosa in the interests of the coming fair and races, while P. Lacy has gone to Davenport on a like mission A matrimonial license has been granted A. Gibbons and Florence Heaston, to Fred. Dill and Dilly Huffman; also to N. ©. Sorenson and Anna Hansen. All are of this city. Over 17,000 copies of the Council Bluffs Exposition News, advertising the fair, have been mailed. The paper is made very attractive by cuts and inter- esting writings, and cannot but attract attention. : J. W. Dorr, of Des Moines, arrived here yesterday from Denver. On the aleeper coming in he' had the ill luck to have his pocket book stolen, but fortun- ately had no large amount of cash on hand, and his tickets were not stolen, The special sale at Nieman's, as ad- wvertised in another column, presents an excellent chance tor bargains. The op- rtunity should not be lost. He has a mge stock, and at the Fricul he is offer- goods they naturally go off like hot €8 on.a winter morning, the vacant lot near the cornor of Ninth stroet and Sixth avenue, sheltered only by & rude tent and having apparently no means of support. The man, who claims to bo sickly, is able to lounge about and gtroll along the streota, and it seems as if y e was fully aa able to work as his poor wife, who is liablo at any time to have another addition to the group of children who are being brought up in this heath- enish sort of way. There ought to be some way to prevent a man from raising a family under such circumstances. The mother and children should be cared for in some way, and if the man who is rais- ing such a family cannot _do it, the coun- ty should, and then let him look out for himself. To allow children to be brought up in the weeds and_mire, with no edu- cational or refining _influence, whatever, is'n disgraceful sight in the midst of a civilized community, and it is a wrong to society as well as to them.

There was a harrow escape from drown- ing Saturday evening, the victim of the accident being a boy named Willie Lib- boerke, aged about ten years, and whose father lives on Washington avenue. It appears that he was playing with some other boys in the vicinity of the Market street bridge, and that some of the youth- had whisky, ful party some which was passed from mouth to mouth until the boys were all drunk. The Liebberke boy, while in this condition, stumbled into the creck, and his companions, badly frightened, ran away. A colored woman, who heard the screaming, commenced callng for help, and Dr. Green, who chanced to be driving by, came to the rescue and got the boy out. He had to work for a long time before he could restore breathing and secure consciousness, 50 nearly was life extinct, but at last accounts the boy was doing well, and bids fair to have a new lease of life. If the accounts given of the boys having had whisky to drink are true, the affair is a sermon of itself, and needs no special comment, o — Dr. West, dentist, 14 Pearl street. CONCERNING THE COURT. It Drags Along Heavily and Slowly, But Something is Being Done. In the circuit court Saturday the case of Casady vs. Sapp, was argued and sub- mitted, but no decision rendered, the court taking it under advisement. The case of Scott vs. the city, in which the plaintiff seeks to restrain the collec- tion of certamn taxes, was decided by Judge Loofbourrow, the injunction being made perpetual restraining the collection of certain taxes, and dissolved as to others. The case or Travers vs. Shinn, the ad- ministrator of the Travers estate, occu- ied most of the day with a jury trial, t is & case in which the justice of the claim of one of the sons, for taking care of the father, now deceased, is involved. The jury returned a verdict giving the plaintiff 81,400 for the fourteen years in which ho had cared for tho old "gentle- | 885 man. The following is the assignment of cases this week. Monday, August 27—3625, 3847. Tuesday, August 28—3930, 3863, 3864, 3870, 3888, Wednesday, August 203890, 3801, 3851, 3804, 3806, 3807, 8899, 3900, 3902.

Booth’s select oysters received dnilx at W. T. Braun's, FAMILY FUSSING, Jacob Kampf, of Avoca, Seems to Be Having More Than His Share. What aro known as tho Kampf cases are getting about as numerous and com- monplace in Avoca Blackert cases are here. thus brings the Kampf family history up to date: The Kampf cases are still coming before the courts—or, perhaps, we should say that about as soon as Jacob Kampf and his wife have settled one of their rackets before the courts, they get into another fracas, and are again brought up, To The field of horses at the coming fair There, promises to be the largest and best in the west this season. There aro twen- ty coming from the Ottumwa meeting here, others from Geneseo, Ill, Des Momnes, Marysville, Mo., in fact from all dhl“nefionl, are coming the best and speed- At the coming fair and races there will ‘be some exciting and novel attractions on the track. Mrs, Nellie Burke and Miss De Vere aro to have a hurdle race, Then there will be chariot races, the Roman ing race, the first ever had in the west rs. Burke and Prof. Beardsley will ride around the course, standing erect, and their will be the Indian war- riors' race for a bride, in which Mrs, Burke, as the indian maiden, riding Jesse James' horse Wild Bill, will be chased and captured by those rej nting Red Cloud, Spotted Tail and Little Crow. In fact, there is something sensational laid down on every day’s programme, besides the regular exhibition and races, which will not be surpassed anywhere this sea- son. A pill peddler has been the exciting cause which has led a number of the resi- dents of Belknap township to prepare tar and feathers, It u{\gom that “in his xounds he has taken advantage of women left alone in the houses, and general- ly insulted several and threatened vio- lence to others, He assaulted one young laey, but her screams caused him to lot go of her and flee. At another house he stole & pocketboot, and at another place ing a young I{o}-’y the well he un- , but a wagon comi ong the o wu:l‘ him “ta desist. of men formed and hunted for m‘m Arol o the fellow may well con- coat of tar and fea et gggeg " : ; i ? i { tt family still occupy such an extent are these family rows in- dulged in by them that the public are sick of reading about them, and we are heartily sick of writing them up. The latest occurred last week, when Kampf attempted to force up a window to the house, and his wife persisted in holding it down. Kampf drow his knife and slashed into the window glass, cut- m himself badly, He claimed his wife stabbed him, and had her arrested on a state warrant. The case was tried tressed and suffering, that her memory will long be cheri ——— NEWS FROM TF A Number of Cases Attracting Their Attention, Officor Cusick, Saturday night, picked up Jack Hogan for being drunk. He got sobered up enough by Sunday morn- ing so that the mayor let him time to atfend church. John Fitsworth was also sobered up by spending the night in the calaboose. He was a stranger, living about seventy miles out on the Wabash. He had sold a horse, and with other money, had over $200 when he struck the Bluffs, but had got downed at some of the gambling houses, which are not supposed to be running at all, and had also be. n visiting the prostitutes, and, of course, throwi in to much drink. He had only £6. left, but the mayor let him out with enough money to get home on. He grumbled about leaving 84 with the city for a night’s lodging, but the chief sug- gested that after giving the gamblers about 8200 he ought not to grumble about giving the city £4, and he went off thinking over his experience. There was trouble at the California house yesterday morning, and a man named John Murphy was pulled out of there for being drunk. Murphy out in s the Rainer-| Tho Herald | claimed that the bartender had grabbed about 830 of his money. This the bartender denied, but afterward gave up a twenty-dollar gold piece, but denied taking any more, and that he icked that up ~ because Murphy was throwing it around carcless- ly. Complaint was entered against the proprietor of the house for keeping open his saloon on Sunday. eriyiogieir e AN Death of Miss] Young. Miss Young, daughter of Mr.U. Young, died yesterday morning at her home on Lincoln avenue. She was only seventeen years of age, and had but just graduated from the high school here this year Her health was quite poor while she was pur- suing her studies, and it wa¢ feared by her friends that her strength would not permit her to finish her course, but she did 8o, and this summer went to Illinois on a visit to friends, with the hope that her health would be improved. An at- tack of typhoid fever followed, however, and after reaching home she gradually declined until death relieved her suffer- ing. The funeral services are to be held this afternoon at 3 o'clock at her father's residence. Rev. Mr. Lemen, of the Baptist church, officiating, she having been a member of that church and one of the toachers in its Sunday-school. e ——— Real Estate Transfers, The following deeds were filed for re- cord in the recorder’s office, August 24, reported for the Bee by P.
