There was a disgraceful row in the St. Louis saloon Saturday night. Three police hurried there, but those whom they tried to arrest made a break and es- caped. One ran along Broadway and was fired at, but would not stop. Another polo club has been organized, with Frank Witherall, captain; Harry Ward, first rusher; Louis Fisher, second rusher; George Holcomb, right half back; Thomas Tidd, left half back; Storey Maxwell, cover point, and Gus Covalt, goal tender. The uniforms are to be myrtle green shirts, dark pants, white belts and polo hats, Charles Graves was arrested on com- plaint of his father who claims that his son has threatened to kill him, It seems that Charles when he gets his skin full of fighting whisky makes it. very uncon- fortable for the old folks at home. His sister pleaded for him, and he was re- leased on promise of behaving himself. The Council Bluffs polo club returned home from Omaha Saturday evening de- feated. They won the first two innings, and made some fine plays, but the third inning was a long one, and by this time the boys weakened, apparently not hav- ing the endurance of the Omaha boys, who won the last three innings. The next contest is to take place at the rink here next. Wednesday evening. “‘Work and Hope” is .the name of a neat little four-page paper issued in the interests of the Congregational church of this city, by which its pastor, Rev. Cyrus Hamlin, calls attention to various features of church work, and gives some practical hints and suggestions to the members and friends of the church. There are also in its columns some editorial notes of gen- eral interest. An attempt was made Saturday to get away with an old man’s money by a quar- tette of confidence men on the outgoing Northwestern train. Between the trans- fer and local depot they tried the check business on him, and failing in this after leaving the local depet they tried to make him believe he was in the Wrong car, and to pass into the next one, 8o as to come the ‘“‘door-squeeze” game on him, He called for help and hung to his pocket- book, while the crooks jumped from the platform and escaped. Mr. Stern is here gathering up material for a two column article in the Chicago Times portraying the interests and ad- vantages of Council Bluffs. The article is to appear with similar descriptious of other important cities between Chicago and Denver, and is afterwards to be in- corporated in a pamphlet to be sent out bythe C. B. & Q. railway. Private citizens have contributed $260 to defray the expenses of the same, belioving it pays to advertise a city, just as it pays to advertise a private enterprise. An old man named Kennedy, living back of the Ogden house, and who has been in destitute circumstances for some time, came down the street with war in his eye Saturday. He thought the super- visor had not treated him as consider- ately as he ought, and was determined to shoot him, The police arrested him and gobbled the revolver he was brandishi The old man's wife soon after a) i and explained that she had given him the revolver to sell soas to buy some wood, and that the old man would do no harm, A purse was raised by some by- standers for the relief of the old lady, and the old man will probably be ad- justed by Judge Aylesworth to-day, For cut flowers, plants, etc., go to W.

A Mystervions Stranger Introduces Himself' to Our New Ohief and a Couple of His Slick Cops. Something of a joke was perpetrated upon our worthy chief of police and one of his detectives, Mr. Edgar, at Berghan- sen’s saloon on upper Broadway, late Saturday night. It seems Mr. Edgar happened into the saloon in his rounds a8 a detective, and whilo there a tall, mysterious acting man, wearing a heavy overcoat, entered and occupied his time in looking around the place and pacing the floor. Detective Edgar, who is a natural born detective, and who should be on the Pinkerton force, thought he scented a rodent of some considerable magnitude, and proceeded to keep a ‘‘weather eye” upon the mysterious visitor. The man seemed somewhat uneasy, and was noticed to frequently thrust his hands into the side] l)oekau of his big coat as he walked eisurely across the floor. He finally left the place, and with the instincts of a true detective, Edgar followed him, be- lieving that Le had got on a racket of some magnitude, and he didn’t propose to loose this chance of showing his abil- ity. While shadowing the peculiar rowler, Edgar met Chief of Police gkinner, who was returning home after a hard day’s work in examining the muz- zles of the canine tribe of the city. He gave the chief a pointer or two, and both followed the stranger, a block,when the latter returned to the saloon. In the meantime the force was reinforced by a cial policeman, and all three entered the saloon. Upon a signal from Chief Skinner, Detective Edgar walked up to the supposed crook, and laying his hand upon his shoulder sai “I want you.” I not, coolly re- perambulator with overcoat. “Well, I said the gallant new chief, stepping boldly and bravel, forward, and confronting the man. *‘Well I guess you don’t,” said ‘the suspicious appearing man, at the same time draw- ing two self-cocking revolvers from his side pockets, and pointing them in the di- rection of the new police force. The chief took one hasty look at the holder of the arsenel and a glance down the barrels of the guns and then made for the door, while Edgar got behind a cus- pidoreand the regular policemangos under one of the tables. ‘‘Hold on a second,” remarked the man with the Colt instru- ments in his hands, as Skinner was about to skin out the door, I want you fel- lows.” Before the chief could get away the supposed sleek fellow had him cor- nered with a revolver, while he directed the point of the other toward the cuspi- dore and one particular table, under which the form of the regular was vi ible. All these were successtully cor- ralled, when the man with the gun id: “It seems you don’t know Iam a deputy U. 8. marshal from Kansas City, and am here looking for a government offender. But as I haven't found him yet, I will disclosea fact or two to you fellows. It is this: ‘‘Council Bluffs has about the sleekest and most fly police force of any city in the United States. Your city is noted for several things, but the police force is about the most notel of all. When shal put up his was about to walk out when Chief Skinner and Edgar, who were geadually regaining their nat- ural color, asked him what he would take, and sll four surrounded the bar, while the chief called for B—— cigars, suddenly remembering the new orders of the mayor, The ears of the chief were suddenly penetrated by the bark of a dog, and he excused himself to see whether the brute wore a regulation muzzle or not, while Edgar said he thought another confidence man had arrived at the depot and the regular went out to resume his beat. The officer from Kansas City then thurst his hands * linto those mysterious side-pockets and started for the Ogden. That Special Piano. New Yonrk, March, 25, 1884, Mz, J.
