Harkness Bros. are just now getting in some elegant new goods and opening them up as fast as possible. Thoy evi- dently intend staying at the front in their line, The question of how the proposed pav- ing is to be assessed is still unsottled. If each lot is to be assessed for the actual work done in front of it to the center of the streot it will come heavy on thoso which are located at the wider portions of Broadway. Elder E. C. Briggs, of Carson, Towa, will oontinue his serios of doctrinal dis- courses at the Saint’s Chapel on Pierce streot, near Glen avenue, this and the three following evenings. All persons are earnestly invited to attend services at 7:30 each evening. Yesterday afternoon a farmer's tcam attached to a light wagon took a lively run down Broadway, with a little boy in the wagon. The horases became detached from the wagon, and skipped out leaving the wagon to.roll along for a distance as though wound up and running itself. James Sullivan slipped on the sidewalk by the Citizens bank yesterday, falling 50 a8 to strike his head on the vurbing, knocking him insensible. He was car- ried into a drugstore, and restored to consciousness, and will doubtless get along all right with the exception of a sore hand, The communion of the Lord's Supper was celebrated in the Presbyterian “church yesterday, at which thirty-four united with the church, eleven of whom |* were baptized.

W, Shoop, proprietor of Low- | Hazel or's hotel, telephoned to police neadquar- | ¥ ters last evening for an officer to come and arrest her husband, who has been drunk for the pasttwo weeks and was .abusing her. On arrival of the police, | Neols -she said that she wished to have her hus- ‘band quieted, but would make no com- plaint; so the policoman returned to his | vall, post. Rev, Mr, Mackey Sunday night gave & ;V lecture on Johu Calvin, which was pro- nouaced by those who heard it one of the ‘beat delivered by him in this city, which in saying much, Next Sunday night he is to take up the Calvin dootrines, the last discourse being mainly biographical. 1t is understood that he intends deliver- ing » series of these Sunday night dis- ‘courses ou prominent men, The contest for an elegant gold watch, tabe presented to the best lady skater, " who has to win it three times in order'to koep it, takes place this ove, and the fol- lowing ladies are expected to be among the contestants: Miss Jennle De Haven, Miss Mattio Palmer, Miss Kittie Whit. noy, Miss Ids Tostevin, Miss Eva Ma. aun, At 10 o'clock to-night the akaters will glear the floor, and & half hour to an hour will be given over to dancing, Yesterday afternoon there was quite a i £ i | 1] STOPPED BY SCOTT. The Connty Sapervisors Enjoined From Counting the Connty Conrt Honse Vote, Knox, Layton and Macedonia Townships Objected to. A Move Which will Cause a Howl, Yesterday, the county board of super- visors met to canvass the vote on the propositions to build a new court house and jail, The returns as they have come in show that the propositions were de- foated by a majority of between two- hundred and three hundred, but there in curiesity, of course, to know just what the official count shall show. While the supervisors were still at the work, a peti- tion was presented to Judge Lyman, by Scott & Stewart, as attorneys, asking for an injunction to restrain the board from canvassing the votes of Knox and Layton townships, Tha petitioners were W, S, Pottibone, John Schneider and other citizens too numerous to bring be- fore the court.” The claim was made that in Avoca, Knox township, the polls were opened and votes re- ceived at 8 o'clock in the morning instead of at 9 o'clock, and were kept open until 10 o'clock at night, without any proclamation being made that they were to be kept open after 6 o'clock ». M, The claim against the le- gality of the Layton township vote was that the polls were kept open in like manner until after 9 o'clock. Judge Lyman issued the injunction, the peti- tionors piving bonds of $500, While the supervisors were canvassing the votes Sheriff Guittar entered the room with the necessary papers and served them. C. R. Scott, in behalf of taxpayers also filed a protest against the counting of thevotes of Macedonia township, the fol- lowing being the protest: To the Honorable Board of Supervisors of Pottowattomie County, Iowa, GentieveN: We the undersigned vo. ters and tax Enycn of Pottowattomie county, Iowa, hereby protest against the counting and canvassing the pretended votes contained in the firetended poll- books of Macedonia township purporting to be poll-books kept and taken in on the 26th day of February 1884, and pur- porting to be cast upon the prepesition for issuing bonds of said sounty for the purpose of erecting court house and jail in said county for the reason that there is no legal or authentic return of the same as by statute required and for the reason that said prevended poll-book was not delivered to the auditor of said coun- ty by any Judge of said election from said township or by anyone authorized by law to deliver the same. C. R. 8corr., J. J. StEWART. W. H. WaRk, County Attorney Mynater who had been notified of what was going on was present and advised tae board to let the vote ef Macedonia rest until the other townships were decided upon by the court, The objection to the returns from Macedonia is that they were sent in by nstead of being delivered by one of dges of election in person. The official vount so far as it was pro- ceedod with was as follows on the court house, and that of the juil differed from it only by a few votes: TOWNSHIPS, 53 i Countil Blufs, Tstward. . o7 4 Il 2d ward ol 2 9 E 72 8 1078 8 16| 56 The vote of Layton township, which was not canvassed, is known to have been 3 for and 302 against the ocourt house, and that of Knox township 5 for and 566 against. That of Macedonia was 2 for and 210 against, so that the votes if counted, would & grand total of 253 againat the profim ons. it T ot ‘'brought to a earing t term of court, The injunction will raise #'howl in the county, and Avoca will be red hot for a time. What the final out- come will be is difficult to determine. PERSONAL, K.

P, Spencer, of Raudolph, Iowa, visited the Blufls yostorday, and stopped at the Fa. slfic house, V. G. Kittle, of Onawa, was at the Padific yesterday.

H, Grant, Wilnington, Del., is at the Og- don. Frauk W, Paul, of the “Sam’l o' Posen Co., was in the city yesterday. Mrs, Everett and her son Leonard Everett, are expected home about the middle of this weok from a threo weeks trip in the east. Mr, Fverett's hoaldh is reported as much lmproved. ‘Why Is It? To the Editor of Tux Bas: Why is it that the saloon keepers of an eastern county raise $5000 in & few minutes for the purpose of overthrowing prohibitory legislation in Towa, while we cannot raise a sufficiont amount to build a chapel in the outakirts of our city, whero children could be taken from the streets and taught morality and religion, and fitted for being sober and industrious citizons? Why is it that thousands of dollars have been raised in the various cities of Towa, by the disorderly and even assisted by some of the respectable citi- zens to aid in the election of officers to porpotuato the vices of gambling and drunkenness when 80 many people shrivel up when asked to give their mite to support & Sunday school or a church and other benevolent institutions which lift the people to a higher plane of mor- ality and make thetn seours the purpoes of their creation in a better life in this world, if not in the world to come? M. CITY ELECTION The Polls the Centre of Interest Yes- terday. Only a Few Bloody Noses. Yesterday the polling places were about the only places where thore was much going on. There were not so crowded and excited gatherings as have been seen on previous years. The ro- cent court house election had let off some of the accumulated enthusiasm, and drained some of the campaign pocket funds 8o there was not as much money floating about as usual on either side. Vaughan had most of the music in the air and bannered wagons, or at least the democrats had them, and that meant yesterday the same thing. The saloons were supposed to be kept closed tight, but still there were plenty of visible in- dications that men found something to drink somewhere. There were a few rows, and few bleody noses. The First ward seemed to have more than its share of these. Early in the forenoon one of these was started by a darkey, who was trying to get in a vote, but was obstruct- od by a man who wos standing at the window, whose vote had been challenged, and who did not seem inclined to stand aside. In the crowding and jostling the darkey was squeezed, and immediately struck out with a rlung-shot, striking John Dunn on the head and almost knocking him down. The blood spurted from the wound, and Dunn rallying struck back. For a few minutes there was a general free-for-all fight, but quiet was soon restored. In the melee Dunn received & cut on the finger, the gash being almost to the bone. In the same wn-tiZ in the afternoon another fight oc- curred, and one man with a badly punched head was taken down to the station by two officers, whom he en- tertained as he staggered along with glowing accounts of how valiant a fighter he was. At each polling place there were more or less drunken hurrahers and loud talk- ors, and it was early in the day evident that if noise was to win the Vaughan criers had the battle. The real voting was lighter than the noise, At 2 o'clock there had been only 1300 votes cast. But after that there was more enthusiasm shown, Still, man of the faces and forms familiar on luu{ octasions were missing, or if there at all were doing little real work. It seemed to be conceded before the closiug of the polls that the democratic ticket had in JIIB main carried the day, but there were a large number of split tickets, and the counting of these was tedious and prolonged, extending far into the night. The total vote in the city was about 2,800. At mid.ii‘:fl“ was concoded that Mayor Vaughan carried the city by over 200 majority. 1t seems that most of the republican ticket was defoated, with the exception of Siedentopf, alderman-at-large, and Tostevin, city engineer. At 11 o'clock the Third ward had counted its votes. Although a republican ward it gave Vaughan 60 majority and 60 for the dem- ocratic candidate ¥or marshal, Harle, republican candidate for city attorney, received 10 majority, and 'lqmwvin, re- publican candidate for city engineer, 39. For alderman-at-large the vote stood: S(i)%denwpf;‘l‘.m, hillips 133, Pettibone 108, — The state encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic will be held at Marshalltown, April 22, 23 and 24, There will be a large attendance of old soldiors, Eagle Girove has had its first fire, Two buildings were burned; a building belong- ing to Mrs, Moats, occupied by a prima- ry school, and an uncccupied building adjoining belonging to Fred Bower. 1t is suspected that the fire was the work of an incendiary. .
