Henry Mudge's little daughter Sadio, who has been quite sick with malarial fe- ver, is roported as recovering quite rap idly under the care of Dr. Green. The public schools close next Friday, and will reopen Wednesday, January 2, next year. There will be some exercises at the Bloomer school building on Friday afternoon, a litt'e out of the usual order. I'he betrothal of Calvin Mary Emma Davis, both of Omaha, was yesterday made a matter of record; also that of Samuel Levi, of Dedham, Car- roll county, and Sarah Rock, of this city. The sensation of the body of an infant being found on the Fank of the creok, | has been robbed of its mystory. It proves to have been a premature birth in a respectable family, and the body after being placed in the box was entrusted to | a colored man to bury. It appears that he did not do his duty very well. Dr. Cross was yesterday arraigned & the district court on the charge of mur- der, and made answer that he was in dicted by his true name. This formality liaving been gone through, and Decem- ber 26th set as the day for trial of the case, the doctor retired from the court- room, the old bail being his surety for appearance when wanted. Cox, of The Acorn, figures up that the town of Oakland spends £3,000 for drinks, over £2,000 for cigars, $875 for billiards, $1,000 for the ministry, 81,200 for schools, and $616 for the support of his newspaper. Thisarray of figures will doubtless cause Oakland to cut down its newspaper oxpenditure, Henry Dust, a darkly tinted prisoner, was before Judge Aylesworth yesterday on the charge of stealing a sack of flour from Eph. Huntingdon's store. He was found guilty, and in view of the holidays coming the judge sentenced him to jail for only four days, so that he might be out in time to enjoy Christmas. A. J. Mandel, L. Harris, D. and A. Levy gave a farewell serenade last evening to Miss Doctor and Miss Riggleman, at the residence of Mr. and Mrs, Friedman, After some selec- tions by tho Bavarian band the par.y were invited in. They remained, and dancing was soon begur, and continued until an early hour this morning. Messrs. Friedman Now that Jennie Flemming's stairway has been torn down, because it occupied a part of the street, the rest ought ts go, sc it would be a fair shake all around. There are arecas cut into the sidewalk at the telegraph office, at the Union Avenue hotel, an outside stairway at The Nonpa- reil office, and in fact many trespass on *the space assigned for sidewalks, If one is allowed this privilege all should be. In runving to the fire Monday evening Chief Templeton foll over a pile of brick standing right in the middle of the side- walk on Eighth street. The chief was somewhat bruised by the fall. There should be no discouragement of improve- ments, and yet there seems no possible nucuumy for a man who is aimply putting @ brick foundation under his house, piling brick up in the center of the walk, especially when he has a large lot not otherwise ocoupied. ‘The Council Bluffs Protective associa- tion, I 0.

It was ordered that all of the streets which have lately been filled shall be curbed and guttered. 1t was ordered that the slleys between Seventh and Eighth streets, south of Broadway, be filled up to grade. Permission was given to properfy owners on the avenues south of Broad- way, as far as Seventh avenue, to have their curbing set 14 feet into the strect, leaving six feet for sidewalk and eight feet for trees and grass. Lowis Hammer was notified that he must at once complete his contract for curbing Main street or the city would commence action against his hondsmen. “." The council then went into session as & board of health, Complaint was wade that certain roperty owners on the south end of &Iufl street and on Bond street were filling a lot with manure aud & thin cov- ering of dirt. The marshal was - _ structed to notify thnm to stop at once, " or they would be_liable to prosscution. The council adj oum-od t:h. n:eut ::;t Wednesday ev: .

Juice Ruod Dicides This i the Saving Martin and | LHE "PREPARATUHY T0 PAVING.” mn B, Properety Owners Must Therefore Pay for Filling, and Not the Clty The case of Beecroft against the city has created much interest because of its involving questions which practically af foct all property owners here. The | question was in fact whether the city should pay for the filling of the strects | out of the general fund or whether the owners of the abutting property should | pay. Throwing aside all the legal technicali | tios Judge Reed's decision was in sub- stance that where the filling of the street |up to grade was preparatory to paving, that it could be charged up to property | owners, and in the case before him the | face of the papers showed that it was for | this purpose. | The streets in _controversy are Kighth and Ninth from Broadway to the creek, and course it is gonrrally believed that the council has no intention of paving these stroots, and the words “preparatory to paving” are alleged to have been put in the resolution ordering the filling, simply to make the filling technically an incident to the paving, thus making the owners of abutting prop- erty liable instead ' of the city. The papers did not show this claim, however, and Judge Reed passed upon the matter as the face of the papers showed. | Tt is now prm]icuul that the papers will be amended so as to set up that the council put in the words *‘preparatory to | paving” for a fraudulent purpose, |they not intending to pave, and |that the case will be carried jup. The city ofticials declare, however, that they do intend to pav Tt is predicted by city officials that not only will Broadway and Main strects be paved within the next_year, but that the strects leading from Broadway (o the creek as far west as the Northwestarn depot will be paved, and also the streets leading south from Broadway for one | block, they claiming that this will be | necessary to protect the work on Broad- The city has won in this first round, and yet the case is not considered defin: itely sottled, there being the promise of an appeal.

A Stanton Merchant Arr taining Money Und Pretenses, Karl, Loy, who is doing a mercantilo business at Stanton, Neb., was brought to this city yesterday in charge of Deputy Sheriff Clatterbuck, who had a requisi tion for him, an information having been filed before Justico Schurz, charg- ing him with obtaining goods under false protenses. This charge is made by Gron- eweg & Schoentgen, who claim that in September last Loy represented that ho had 7,500 to $9,000 worth of goods, 84,600 of notes and _accounts, $600 of real estato, and that his liabilitios were only £5,300. On the strongth of this tho tirm sold Loy $700 worth of woods on credit, and afterwards learned that in- stead of buing in_debt $56,300 he was owing $8,000, and that the other repres- ontations were false. Ley gave bonds of 1,200 to appear for oxamination on the 5th of February, to which time the case wa continued. e Mrs. M. Carroll, fashionable dress- making, cutting and fitting a specialty.

The building season has closed, but yhody is on the lookout for a big boom next year. The pigeon shoot last Friday, between Williams, of this place, and Arf, of Den- ison, was won by the former by a score 23 to 19, out of a possible 25 birds, The purse was $150. At the conclusion of services at the Baptist church the other night, the con gation found themselves fastened in., One of their number, on being let out through a window, found a stout stick so fastened to the door handle as to resist all efforts to open the door from the in- side. Evidently there are still some of our **Young Americans” abroad in the land. The old brewery west of town is being moved up town, and made to do service as tenement houses. The citizens of this place are somewhat exercised over the railroad machine shope, which they fear will bo removed from here to Blair or Fremont. But their fears are certainly groundless, for it is not reasonable to suppose that the small amount which Blair or Fremont could raise toward building the shops there would be any inducement for the com- pany to move their shops away from the terminus of the road. A free-for-all fight was participated in by & number of noted characters, on Sat- urday night last, and the result wasa full calaboose. ———— Go to Hurlburt's fancy steam dyeing and French dry cleaning works at 34 Pearl street. — Iteal Estate Transfers.
