The_ trouble arising between the two boys, Richardson and Bowls, which led to the latter's arrest for assault and bat- tery, was brought by members of both fam- ilies before Judge Aylesworth yesterday. The boys were given a good fatherly HK- ing to and the case dismissed, .oThn Olu\lluuqluuclub met lut‘i evening e for another year's study, The olum: much ndvnnzemunt lnty season, and furnished a profitable and pleasant way of spending the winter evenings, it should be heartily sustained this year, The [colored man, Farnsworth, who took Jake Reger's roll, amounting to $140, !uwrduy, waived examination be- fore Judge Aylesworth, and was placed in jail to await the action of the grand w, being unable to furnish the $500 required for his appearance, * Work on the new Masonic temple will begin next week, and it is axpected that the corner stone will be laid about Sept, 20, It is expected that Gov. Sherman and Grand Master George B, Van Guier, of Cedar Falls, will be present on the occasion, The building will be enclosed before winter comes. ing the valise in the officer’s hands. It has been returned to its owner. The colored population here might as well take a fresh hold for a new wrestle. The circular issued by Frederick Doug- Inss calling the convention to be held at Louisville provides for only one delegate for the whole stato of lowa, so that a state convention will have to be held, and all this petty fussing is of no account. One of the letter carriers, J. Goss, has been quietly dropped from the force. He says o reasons are given him, but he is .imwx told that his services are no longer needed. That looks like uncivil service, The man is surely entitled to sorts Why of Wwherefors, David Whitler, who was policeman at the Union Pacific yards, has been given the place. A carponter named Oleson, hailing from Fremont county, found his visit to Council Bluffs a costly one. He pur- chased_some tools and some drinks, and when he woke up in the morning he found himself in the calaboose without cithor. Ho put his watch up as security for his fine and started ouf on the street again with a vague idea of how he could got a ride home. M. Chambers, chairman of the board of supervisors of Crawford county, re- ports that the poor farm there not” only proves a good farm but its management a paying success. They have 100 acres of land and they have a man and wife to manage it and ultilize the pauper labor in making it. The farm not es for the poor but yields a revenue to the county. Ono of the reasons given why the Chicago & Northwestern refuses to raise its s across Broadway is that last pg it asked the city for the grade and brought its grounds and tricks up to that, and now the city wants to have the tracks raised still higher. The company want to be dead sure, before it raises again that it is fully up, and won’t have to chango again, Nothing has been heard of the where- abouts of Martin, tho absconding plumb. er. An expressman says Martin bought peared, and hired him to take it to his house, He says that when Mrs. Martin paid the cartage he saw her have a large roll of money and a quantity of silver If this is true it does away with the theory that he deserted her, leaving her destitute of means to help herself. Some who have had experience in handling drunks, disorderlies and crimi- nals already begin finding fault with some of the features of the new city jail even before it is finished and occupied, and some of the criticisms made seem well founded. It is claimed that the doors are too narrow, and that this will add to the difficulty of getting a man in if he resists. Then the cells are so near the outside windows, and the bars are so wide that anyone on the outside can pass things through to prisoners iaside unless further protection is made against it. Marshal Jackson was yesterday on the lookout for several pairs of undressed kids. Ho found them swimming near Pettibone's place, and was first inclined to take them up to the calaboose and let them get dry there, but finally set down on the bank, tho boys clustering about him he held a sort of Sunday school. The boys wont forget the lessun very soon, and if they do, they will the next time be kept after school and made to learn the whole of it by heart, in the city lock- up. The marshal is pretty good natured to the boys but when he says ‘‘its busi- ness,” the boys know that he means it. The man, Parrott, whose family is tenting on a vacant lot on Ninth street, was visiting the justice courts in great wrath yesterday because some drunken man had insulted his wife. All that was claimed by him was that the man kept asking the woman if she didn't want to earn some money, and that he refused to leave as quickly as she ordered him to. It is to be regretted that there could be found no law to punish the fellow, for, while there was no offense technically, et, morally, it was evident the fellow insulted the woman as far as he dared to. She has the reputation of being a very respectable woman, and the delicate con- dition she is now in, and the destituie circumstances with which she is sur- rounded, made the insult cowardly and despeable, At the samotime, a man who is able to work at all, who will allcw his family to lay around tho weeds of an open lot, with a wife in such a condition, exposed to the jeers of any drunken fel- low who may pass along the street, needs to be stirred into a littlo activity by something, Those who have beon so forward in poking fun at the kinderglrten, and the ard oF edugetion which hea a0 willingly a now trunk the day before he disap- | thrown it out of the public scHool system, should read an article which appears in Secribner's for Soptember, 1t gives a ro- view of the work being done in primary schools in Massachusetts, and the meth- ods adopted, entering into all the details, In many respects the system which is there described as meeting with such wonderful success is the same as that which has been used here. Primary scholars are given a wonderful knowledge of fractions, Jf having clay moulded into cakes, and then divided into halyes, quarters, ete. They are taught the tables of measures, not by note and mere mem- ovizing, but ‘by having gills, pints, ete., measuring bran for dry measures and water for liquid measures, They are taught by using tape-lines of their own the table of lineal measure, In fact, clear through the various studies the system is used, But then Massachugetts is & sort of rude half-civilized country, and is doubtless further behind in such matters than those of the west. e ——— Prairie chickens and A, Booth's select oysters reseived daily at W, T.

Rev. Julius Soper, who has spent ten years of his life as a missionary in Japan, stopped over here on his way to his home in Wushing- ton, D, ud made a brief visit to County Clerk Street, to whom he is reluted. Mrs. Soper returned home last year, and is now visiting friends in New Jersey, but will join hor husband in Washington.

Mr. Ralph Hackney, who lives up on the river bottom, near McKercher's forry, hunded us some slips of paper the other day, which he says his son found in a bottle tloating down the Missouri river. There are three square cut pieces of manilla, about 3x4 inches square, and & piece of about two-thirds of a sheet of note paper. Upon the slip of note paper is written with a pen and ink in a good business-like had, the following: ‘‘May 10, 1882, ‘We take this methad of informing the world that we are in constant dunger.
