Mayor Vaughn of Council Bluffs, has issued an official notice that all dogs in the city must be muzzled or chained up until September 1st. There seems to be a diseaso resombling hydrophobia, which it probably is. A staie law to that ef- fect would prove a blessing to mankind a8 there has been a great deal of dam- age done especially to cattle and hogs. One man in Harrison county alone lost eight head of cattle and that many hogs bitten fby a dog having hydrophobia. That hydrophobia is on the increase, can- not be denied.— [Crawford County Bul- letin, The upper part of Shugart’s block is being fitted up for a commercial college, and will be ready for occupancy by June Thursdny Mormng April 8.

Matters Interesting Vangban's Galaxy of Stars, Forging Orders tor Board Seems the Mania. A young man giving his name as Frank Hart now lies in the municipal bastile charged with forgery. It appears that he sent to Mrs, Blandenberg and applied for board, presenting as a voucher an or- der purporting to be signed by *‘Charles Owen, foreman of the gas works,” in- forming her that if she would board the young man until Saturday night he would woe that she got her pay. This order is proved a forgery, and on this he was ar- rested. His effects amount to a pair of cuff-buttons, a pack of cards and a mem- orandum book. In the book were a number of minutes signed (by H. A. Pratt, and days’ doings entered, showing the profits of one day's work to have 85 years, has received severe injuries by falling down a stairway. Mattie Beecher for raising a row at Stella Long's was yesterday fined enough to make a $10 bill look feeble. John Epeneter now wears the medal as the fastest roller skater, but holds it subject to the result of future contests. J. Fred Meyers, for a time political editor of The Nonpareil, has, with his son Charles K. Meyers, bought The Den- ison Review. The oity weighmaster is now waiting for a few loads of dirt to make an ap- proach to the scales, and will then be ready for business. Dunn'’s mercantile agency is changing its office, and will hereafter occupyrooms +in Shugart’s block, adjoining Sapp & Pusey's law offices. The town trustees are expecting to meet next Saturday to choose constable to take Tom Skinner’s place. Thero is quite a lively scramble for the place. Work on the new bridge across the creek at Indian Oreek is being pushed forward by Raymond & Campbell as fast as possible considering the weather. The number of boarders at the jail has been reduced from nineteen to fourteen. Three have been taken to Crawford county for trial, and two have served their time, To-day at 1 o’clock the great cattle sale will take placs, as advertised in another column, It will doubtless draw a crowd, and prove a great event for those inter- ested in stock, As soon as the mud permits those curbstones taken from the government property and now lying in front of the city building, will probably be returned to Uncle Sam. The discharge of a fow men from the ‘waterworks is no such great cut down of -employes as some would make out, There -are enough left to run the works as they -ought to be run and meet all needs.

Thero was also a set of mystical symbols, with a key, and pages on which cipher entry by this system had been practiced. Another young man presented himself at Mrs. Gerpacher’s hotel with an order urportmg to be signed by George Beb- ington, to the effect that he would stand good for the fellow’s board. Mis- trusting that the order was not genuine, the clerk made inquiries and then called the police, but the would-be boarder skipped out before the blua coats caught 1st. The rooms will be as convenient |him Olcll' Sprink, the boy who stole a draw shave from a carpenter shop, was yesterday released from jail wherc he has boeen locked up for fifteen days. Robinson Mardis was the name given by one lively six-footer who was a little full and audacious enough to refuse to pay for some drinks he had downed. Ho was bellowing lustily that he was the United States marshal whohad stirred up 8o much commotion here late- ly: “You bet I am, the very fellow that of my twoguns, There ain't any four olicemen can arrest me.” He had just lown this Elast when Officers Metcalf and O'Brien took him in tow and led him into the cooler. He had no guns and no commissions, and when sobered up yes- terday morning his bluff was all gone, and dropping $7.60 in the till he strolled away to live and fight some other day. Some fellow sneaked a valise off a street car coming up from the Northwest- erndepot. The-grip belonged to F. F.

SIX MONTHS EACH, A Postoffiice Burglar and a Pension Fraud Each Get a Touch of Justice, Olifford Hough, who the other day pleaded guilty in the United States court of burglarizing the Crescent City post- offiee last December, was yesterday sen- tenced to six months in the county jail. This was for the first of the two burglar- ies of the postoflice there, the second vis- itation being in January last, while Hough was in jail here, so that he was not concerned in that., The postoffice was located in the store of Mr. Swanson, the postmaster, and besides the robbery of the office, goodl were taken from the store. The six months penalty is for the plunder taken from the Soawflms, that being especially Uncle am’s business to attend to. The plun- dering of the store forms another charge under thoe state law, and young Hough will have a soparate hearing on this in the district court.. An old man named Birch also had his case disposed of yesterday. He has been longer in jail here than any other of the prisoncrs, He was arrested and locked up about a year ago for a fraudulent at- tempt to 5et & pension, After about months' delay he was tried and sen- tenced to one year in the penitentiary. His attorneys raised the question of jurisdiction, or some other technical question, and while this was pending the court ordered the prisoner kept in jail here, and his time to go on. Yesterda; the court oyerruled the motion, and Birch was ordgred taken to Anamoss to s out the remaining six months of his scn- tence, . The old man has thus been lere nearly a year, but during all the jail breaks and other disturbances has be. haved himself in an orderly manner, He kicking themselves Lecause the morning nmlld not, if he had wanted to, take any jpapera did not bite too, and are now try.- | v _ing to hedge.
