Justice Vaughan continues on the sick list, but expects to be able to get into court to-day. John Brown was arrested yesterday for disturbing the peace by kicking up a row in Schroeder’s saloon. Justice Abbott yesterday tied the knot which binds as husband and wife G. W. Kulp and Miss Letitia Sprig, both of Omaha.

The Board of Trade Wrestling With the Problem, Some of the difficulties attending the solution of the question of sewerage in Council Bluffs have already been given by Tue Bee. The importance of the question, however, is such that these difficulties must be overcome, and the city council lie down in the mud and water and say it cunnot be done. The board of trade has a committee consisting of J. W. Rodefer, E. L. Shugart, An- drew Graham, J. N. Baldwin and Harry Birkinbine, who have been wrestling with the question. They were to have met yestorday afternoon, but put the meeting off until last evening, it being more con- venient than to consider some matters not touched upon before, among them being the favoring of a Legislative enact- ment empowering the city to issuo bonds for the carrying on of a system of sower- age. Marry Birkinbine, the engineer, who 18 an important member of the com- mittee, left yesterday for Louisville on is wisely presiding in the superior court during his abscnce. Two drunks were disposed of in police court yesterday, McLain being the name of one and N. D. Meyers the other. Each was taxed $5 and costs. A farmer had a struggle with a balky horse on upper Broadway yesterday, re- eulting in the smashing of the tongue of the wagon, and whiffletrees. The entrance to the Masonic temple is showing up some now, and one can got some idea from the arch already in what the appearance will be. Constable Fox having_ returned from Dakota, the question arises whether by becoming a resident there he has not lost his Towa citizenship and his star. Wilson, the butcher on Main strost, has complained of a lady neighbor for using obscene and abusive language, and the case will be brought up to-day. A heavy suit entitled D. T. Gillman & Co. vs. Yetzer and Rapp his been eent from Cass county to this county. The claim is for over §6,000, growing out of a grain contract. A. Brandt has commenced suit against the trustees of the Methodist church for $76, wages claimed by him, while doing work for E. E. Brainard, the contractor, for certain repairs done to the building. Peregoy & Moore have received for their retail store on Broadway a large and elegant mirror, sent them by Lich- tenstein Bros. & Co., New York, who manufacture for them some of their best brands of cigars. Marshal Jackson gave Best an item yesterday, which was a huge one and de- cidedly sensational, but the news gatherer failed to publish it. He tells it to his friends on the sly, though, and then they smoke, A complaint was filed before Justice Schurz yesterday charging Gustav Lor- ringer with malicious mischief, it being claimed that he went into Skellon, Hen- dricks & Rice's tailoring establishment and cut up two pairs of pantaloons with a pair of shears, doing about $29 damages. Rev. J. G. Lemon started last evening for Bunker Hill, Macoupin county, IlL, to deliver a lecture there this evening on “The Lessons Learned from the Recent important business, and will not be back before the latter part of the week., He system of frontage tax upon property paased by the sewer, that the entire city could enjoy one of the greatest blessings ~a systom of sewage, In closing let us ask the city council that before they adopt any system of sownge, that they have a careful survey made of the entire city area, and have the samo properly plotted, so that no matter which system be adopted, it will be available and reliable. If the city orders this survey, we hope that they will have the reference stakes or monuments of ground set in different parts of the city, as they will be of in- estimable value in years to come. — Cut rates to all points at McAllister's ticket office, 505 Broadway, Council Blugs. e— RESTORED 0 e of Unle Sam's Navel Liatants Bids Too Many Good-Byes. His Head Now Cleared Up He Starts On a Three Years' Cruise. REASON. On Saturday afternoon Chief Field found a well-dressed stranger wandering about tho city, asking for his boarding place, and saying he wanted to see some of the boys and bid them good-by before prepared a report before going, which serves as a starter for the commit- tee, on which they can work adding to and changing it as they may see fit. As a report of the committee it is not complete, and is not adopted even he left town. The man not being able to give any very clear account of himself, and being apparently crazed, rather than drunk, was placed in the county jail under the name of John Irwin, of Peoria, by the corumittee as yet, but it furnishes [ Ill., and a physician called toattend him. in its prosont form some topics for talk | Sunday his head seemed clearor and yes- and suggestions which are valuable. 1t torday he was so far restored as to a nor- is as follows: To tie PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE BoAkD OF Trape: The sewerage of Council Bluffs is a matter of greatim. portance and one which should receive the immediate attention of the authori- ties. There are but two systems. First—Gravity to the Missouri river. Second—Pumping into Indian creek. Gravity system—The maintenance of the gravity system is of course the leastex- pensive, butthe construction is very costly. It would probably necessitate the raising of the entire city, except a small part of it, and that built on the bluffs and in the glens. The coat of this cannot be esti- mated without a thorough survey of the city. But it would be immense, when wo consider that there is not only the streets but the lots to fill and all the buildings to raise. Then it must be con- sidered that the raising of a city destroys its attractiveness and beauty for years, such as shade trees, lawns and flower gardens, Before adopting this, or any other sys- tem, the entiro city should be surveyed, and a truthful map made of the same. After this map is prepared it should be put in the hands of the best sanitary cn- gineer in the country, who should be em- ployed to make such & report as would enable the city to construct its sewers and establish a system of grades that would be positive and final. To make these surveys and plot them, and employ an expert sanitary engineer, would no doubt cost the city a large sum of money, say $10,000, which though expensive, would be money wisely spent. Of course the city could continue with its prosent system of grading, but it is our opinion that it would be ' a matter of &;elt advantage to .property owners to ow that all grades wero finally settled, and would not be changed. Then it would be a matter of considerable saving if the city would first locate and buil Electionsin Iowa and Ohio.” Mr, Lemon was formerly a resident of that place. He will return in time to fill his pulpit here as usual next Sunday. . Mayor Bowman’s proclamation order- ing tramps and crooks to leave town, set the limit of their staying till last night. Now if there are any hanging around to- Gy, 1himill givaia olande (o a6 Wha the authorities pro) to do if the order is not obeyed. Proclamations have not amounted to much, as a rule. Tt i hoped this will prove an exception. The 0dd Fellows of the city are now mkin,’i of following the example set by the Masonic fraternity and building a new temple, fully as large and fine as that now going up. They are led to this in part by the fact that the grand lodge is to meet here next year, and there ought to be a temple fnrnished before that time. The site being talked of is on Broadway next to fiutmll Bros., clothing store, where De Haven's drug store, Pat 's saloon, and the 99 cent store are now located. 1t is to be hoped that the talk will culminate in action, The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway company is arranging for a change in the method of protecting its freight cars from the raids of thieves. The old system of numbering tags and seals is being done away with, and the plan now being adopted is to fasten the cars with stubs of tin, on which the num- ber of the station, date of shipment, eto., is stamped by a pair of pincers. Bach station has a different sort of pincers, so that it is expected that the preventing of sewers and then do the necessary grading over them, If upon careful examination it be found that the city can afiord to adopt the gravity system of sewerage, it will no doubt be the best. But let the city work with some system in view so that in the end their work willall bo available and useful, It is therefor impossible to place an estimate upen the expense of the gravity plan. Pumping System.—This system will necessitate the construction of a cesspool, erection of a steam pumping apparatus, and the employment of an_engineer and two firemen, Now these look like ex- pensive things, but let us make an ap- proximate estimate. Two centrifugal pumps and engines, capacity 80,000 gallons per minute, with foundation........ .810,000 Three 100 horse powers, set, . . ... 6,000 Cesspool VR s se 5,000 $21,000 Interost on plant at 10 por cont per r R % 2,100 Ono enginoe Two firemen. . 400 tons of coal at 33, Say $6,000 per annum, the interest at G per cont upon £1,000, which large amount would about represent the costof raising building and the grading of two streets running north and south, In ostimating tho cost of machinery we have taken the most expensive, The next question would be, what would the sower cost! * As the main sewer would be of different diameter, say 18, 20, 24, 50 and 36 inches, we have assumed it at an average of 30 inches in diameter, Sup- any tampering will be complete. It is|pose we start our main sower on First mal use of his brain that he was able to give quite a straight account of him- self. It appears that ho has been in the United States Navy for years, and had got up to the rank of lieutenant. He ad spent much of his time on the Pa- cific, and about three years on the coast of Japan. Lately he has been in Phila- delphia, where he received orders to re- turn to Japan another three years' stretch, as he expects. He went around bidding his friends good-bye, and did so much good-bye business, in tact, that he remembered little of the detaifs of how he got here. In Council Bluffs he still tancied he was in Phfladelphia, and was going to hold some more farewells, when ho was taken charge of by the officers. He woke up in jail, to o realization of his condition, and the whirling of his brain preved only temporary, e found that his baggage had been checked right through to San Francisco, He had his ticket and about $300 in money, so he was able yesterday to resume his_ journey with a clear head, and a feeling of satisfaction that the good-bye business was at an end. —— SPIRITUAL RELIGIOUS MEETING. A combination of four gifted mediums will give an _entertainment at Masonic Hall on Wednesday, October 3lst, and Thursday, November 1st, at 0 in the afternoon and 7:30 in the evening. The programme will consist of trance speak- ing, inspirational singing and playing, psychometric reading and independent clairvoyant tests and spirit photography. Pictures will be taken in the hall. Dis- eases will be located and diagnosed with- out questions. Many cured on the spot, Prompt attention is required. Entrance Empkie Hardware Co. W ELO XL I8 A X 10 Hardware! 109 and 111 8.
