Gathered up 5 on the of the uprome Tho election of Judge Reed, District Court, to a seat upon the bench has excited many conjscturos as to who will take his place on the District There are, of plenty who would like to take it, and some of these lave friends who are not backward in vrging their names to the front. Those who are acquainted with the bar of this district are freo to confoss that while there are a number of ablo lawyers, yot among them it is difficult to find just tho right kind of mental timber fora judge, thero being a searcity of minds of any wonderful judicial turn, It 18 whispered about that thore was a quict conferenco last Sunday, in which Judge Reed, overnor Hale, of Wyom- ing, Jno. Y. Stone, George F. Wright, and othors participated, the confersnce being held on the sly and the talk being informal. 1t is said that an arrangement. tixed up by which Judgo Loofbour- w, of the Circuit Court, was to take Judge Reed’s 0 in the District Court, and that the vacancy thus caused on the Circuit bench was to be filled by the ap- ,..,imm.-,m of W. 8. Mayne, the presout Uity Attorney. O courso,it remains for tho powers to bo, to sanction this ar- rangement and carry it into effect, but bench, course, as usual on such days, to while the time away., The old question of who built the first brick house in Council Dlufis was agiin brought up. A committec consisting oi Moses Shinn, of Omaha, Judge Robinson and Squire Stone, who had made a special investigation of the matter, on suggestion of Tue Brr, ro- ported unanimously that the first brick house was built by Mr. Wagstaff, story brick building on Mamn str ickotan zling question bein el A one ) oW or shop, - This settled, the club Jailer Schontz says it is pretty hard to bo jailer and jail too, but he seoms do termined that there shall be no more prisoners get away, even if the county will not provide a new juil or some safe place of keeping them,” Great caution is now being used. When the prisoners are let out of their colls into tho corri- dors in the morning every cell is examined and the doors locked, 80 that the prison- ers canuot get into them to do any wi during the day. At night the prisoners are locked in their cells, so that whatoyer k| sibly Hon 1t is equally true that whatever appoint- ments are made, will be made in accord- ance with the wishes and planning of those who are locally concarned. If this arrangement is the one to he carried out Pottawattamie county will be ctting pretty near its share’ of the honors. With Licutenant-Ciovernor Manning. a resident «f Council Blufls, with Judge Reed on the Supreme beneh, and W, 8. Mayne on the Circuit bench, it looks as if | vattamie county might bo con; d a littlo too much like Ohio if it demands more. Pottawattamio county now has o Congressman, not e al Ropublican one, and yet one who owos his olection to Republican votes rather than Democratic votes. If the rumored avrangement proves true, and s carried out, how willit bo about the mnext Congross- man! Pottawattrmio county will doubt- less gracefully allow some other county of the district to name the man. Pos Johu Y, Stone, of Glenwood, has his eyes turned in that direction, and if 80, it will bo very fitting that ho shall moves are mado for digging or breaking out must bo made at night, and finished before inspection in the morning, and as each cell is soparate there can be no united concert of action or goaeral break. The telephone service hore seoms to bo getting into the old rut again, The day service is better than it was, but some nights it is .ike raising the dead to get anyone aroused at the central station, There should be some means taken to in- sure a prompt attention to business at night, for patrons do not stay awake to use the telephone for frivolous purposes, The night business, while not so large, is even more unpurunt than the day busi- nens, and if there is anything that is ag- finvltmg it is to ring and ring, and not e able to arouse the ceutral office. The telephone, to be of any use, must o re- liable, for when it fails it always 8 at an important time and whenmost needed In some cities of loss thau half the pop ulation of Council Blufls the telephone is as low as 82 a month, and a larger num ber of instruments are in uso than here, thus making every instrument of more value, hut the rates here would not be complained of if good service is given. ‘The new management has remedicd the cause of complaint for day service. Now, if it will wake the service reliable at night, there will be still lesy complaint. i Dr. West, dentist, 14 Pear] strect. o — Meals at Bechtele's hotel on the European plan. —— Over 2,500 straight Republican tickets were cast in Des Moines, take part in a conference in regard to fix- ing up othor candidates, Tho quastion a8 to who will be the next distriet at- torney is also somewhat affected by the arrangement talked of. Colonel Daily, of this mi has been looked upon by many as the coming man, but if Council Bluffs and Pottawattamie county get too many plums before his time comes, the quostion of locality may lead to the se- lection of some man ~from elsewhere, All these conjectures are interesting, to say tho leat. — RLY GONE, hl Fatal Coal Gas Almost Ends the Days of an Entire Family, My, Fitzgerald, of the firm of Sullivan fi rald, had a vory narrow escape Eaa dasit) by coal gas, as did in fact his whole fawily, consisting of his wifo and three boys, It scems that the gas e:- caping from a coal stove during the night was inhaled by them in such quantities that when one of the boys woke yestor: day morning and got up he found that he was so nauscated and dizzy that he could hardly walk, The other members of the family were aroused, and all proved to be in & serious condition, Mr. Fitzgorald, himself, wus s0 nearly gone that it was not until noon that he had recovered suflicient strength to speak aloud. The rest of the family were not 80 badly used up, but all were ina very sick condition. Last night they were fecling better, but it will be some time before they recover fully from the eflects of the deadly gas. As it is, they may congratulate themselves on having their lives spared, as a very short time more would have resulted in a never waking sleep — UNFORTUNAT ANYWAY. The Trouble Hetween Alderman Siedentopf and J, M. Phillips As A man Sic uly stated in Tue Bre Alder ntog r, at weeting of the council, Monday evening's | presented a Mr. J. M. Philli ages claimed by the latter on ps in regard to the dam account of the changoe of street g erty, Mr. Phillips wde near his prop- id he had heard from t his having reccived money “the other side,” in the council showed honest and that his action in that he was not in the matter, Mr. Siedentopf, his long residence here has test confidence of the peo ple, did not feel that he could let this pass, coming as it did from an old and rosy citizen, and said in the pres ence of others, He referred to the mayor as to the ral correctness of his state- ment of the interview, who corroborated the same. man Siedentopf ro- quested that immittee of the council should investigate the matter, and though no one for an instant believed there was iything wrong with Mr. Siedentopf, his request was granted and a committee appointed. Tuesday night Alderman James, of that committee, reported verbally that they had called upon Mr, Phillips and that the latter’s account of the interview with the d Alderman Siedentopf was not ne as that give Dby the latter, Mr. Phillips claimed that he felt that the council had not used him tat all, but that he did not mean to charg A\]lll‘rumn icdentopf with any corruption or dis- honesty He claimed to have been aggravated by some remark made by the alderman, but he did not me to be understood as charging Alderman Sieden- topf with having taken money or being dishonest, On the other hand Alderman Sienden topf claims that there could bo no mis- understanding of the language used, or the charge made against him openly. He has already avowed his intention of be- ing exonerated in the courts, by a suit for damages for he is not set right by the couneil, an b he may sue anyway The committee of investi- gation has” been given further time, at Alderman Siedentopf's request, he desir- ing that they should interview the others who heard the conversation, as he deems it at present an issue of veracity between Limself and Mayor Bowman on the one and Mr. Phillips on the other, as to tually was said, h men are prominent and highly respected ana the issue botw them has caused some little stir. 1t is to be hoped that it will be settled amicably, as it makes another complication in the settlement of the grading of the street by Mr. Phillips’ erty, and which is already in the courts in” the form of a suit. The City Council met yesterday morn- ing as a committee of the whole, and tooked over the street in dispute and 1 wow it affected Mr. Phillps’ property, and they interviewed him. They pro- posed that the city should gi him enough money to build a stone wall along the side of the property where the street is to be cut down, but this Mr. Phillips thought was too little, and thero the mat- ter stands. e Dottings from Denis: N Rov. Mr. McMeekin, who last summer supplied the Prosbyterian church of this city and who is now located at Denison, was transferred from the Waterloo to the Ft. Dodge district by the Presbytery that met in Sac City o fow days since. At tho mecting, a motion by Rev.
