Reiter's Spring Goods. David W, Lehman, Hugh Wayler and Wm., Wilson were fined yesterday for being drunk, A toam belonging to J. 0. Hoffmeyer got stalled in the mud at Sixteenth street and Broadway yesterday. The Main streot cars now run to the C. B. & Q depot as of old, the now track being completed that far. Keene appeared in Cedar Rapids Mon- day night. If that city can afford such ocelebrated actors why cannot Council Bluffs, In the district court yesterday the case of Sapp & Lyman vs. Aiken Underwood & Co. was en trial, it being a claim for attorney fees. The annual normal teacher's institute for this county will meet in the city Wed- nesday, July 1, and continue in session three weoks. Everything argues well for the races here June 24, 26, 26 and 27, with more and better horses than at any meeting in the west. There will doubtless be races every day. John Hughes, yesterday, had a man named Calahan arrested for stealing $3.50 from him while drunk, The accused ‘was discharged. An attempt will be made to get two or three hydrants placed in the Driving park before the races, and some of the streets leading to the park so that the dust may easily be laid. Complaint is made that the outhouses at the transfer have been pumped out, and the filth left where it is, mot only annoying to residents In that vicia- ity, but dangerous to their health. The city fathers have provided a place now where all can deposit rubbish, It is located on Sixteenth avenue, in Klein's addition, and will be designated by a sign, so that there will be no excuse now for dumping filth elsewhere. The poor aldermen have to piece out their meagre salary in some way, and one of the ways is to meet as a board of health just before each council meeting for a fow minutes, which entitles them to so much extra. The city's health never re- ceived so much attention as now. The arrangements being made by the Hibernians aro such as to assume for Connicil Bluffs a big Fourth of July cele- bration, The Hibernian societios of Omaha and Plattsmuth are to join in the doings here, and a new Oouncil Bluffs band is to make it debut them. 1t has been decided to organize a club of the ‘‘boys in blue” to further the cam- paign for Blaine and Logan. At a pre- liminary meoting held Monday evening John Fox was chosen president and J. C. Rhodabeck secretary pro tem. It was decided to hold a meeting at the court house next Friday evening to per- foot, the organization and elect permanent officers. All boys in blue are invited to be present. William Brewer a colored boy, who is pretty well known here, has got into trouble at Newton. It appears that he and another boy concluded to steal a ride onthe C. & R. L to Des Moines, and bid in a box-car, Some one came along and sealed the car, and at Kellogg was opened and the boys found inside. They were taken through to Newton and lock. ed up in jail thers, and friends here notified. The scales at the junction of Main and Pearl streots are to be removed, one of the causes of complaint of the nelghbor- ing business men, being that hay wagons gather and stand there, blocking up the street, scattering hay over the pavement, and accumulating filth, It is proposed to put a fountain where the scales now stand, One of the sly powers causing this removal of the scales, is the fact that the scales are private scales, and interfere with the public weighmaster, who has scales on a lot near by. Profersors Beardsley and Poulson scem quite encouraged over the prospects of their new western commercial college, which opens here on the 23d. Every possible facility has been provided for those who desire to secure a higher Eng. Lish education, those who want to prepare for business, and those who intend to teach stenography, type-writing, elocu- tion, German and music, are among the branches to be taught, besides many others, ko there is a wide range from which to select. The college promises to get a good start this summer, and by fall will be recognized as a permanent day uutil Sunday, He says that it was covered with & tarpaulin, and that it did mot reach here until Sunday afternoon, and was not swiiched up where it could begot by the department until Mouday brought to the house The Mayor’s Private Secretary Brought Back from Lincoln, FRISKY FERGUSON. His Acts and Sayings. Yesterday morning the chief of police, Tom _Skinner, arrived home, having in custody J. Alfred Ferguson, the mayor's private secretary, who was arrested in Lincoln. He returned with the officer without making any protest or trouble, and although evidently very nervous and rattled, yot ho made a brave and not al- together unsuccessful attempt to put on a bold face, While Justice Vaughan was hearing some case that was before him, the chief with J. Alfred were waiting in an adjoining room. While thera ‘‘che private secretary” told Tne Ber man that the first ho knew of any trouble being raised about his going away, was what he saw in Tune Bre while at Lincoln, ‘‘Why, it seems to me that everybody reads Tur Ber. Every fellow I saw had one, and it seemed to me that every one of them was sold a8 are not prohibited by state law, saying in effect, that only non-intoxicating drinks may be sold, and yet it provides penalties for selling to a drunken person, as though it would do any harm to sell a glass of lemonade to s man who was drunk. The whole of the ordinance summed up in plain English is to the effect that although there is a prohibitory state law, yet if the saloon men will pay the city $400 a year,and give a bond of 8$1,000 flmfl may go ahead, and so far as the city authorities are concerned no trouble will be caused them. This sort of an agree- ment, made between the city and the saloon-men, by which both seek to reap a profit by evacing the state law, is the summing up of the ordinance. Its ad- vocates urge that saloons will run here anyway, and that in view of this fact the city should take steps to get some special nssessment out of them, to cover part of the special expense caused by them. ———— Local Crumbs, Coyote Bill, who escaped from jail here about a year ago, and who wss so skillful a bridle maker, is now serving a term in the Lincoln penitentiary for horse stealing. Mary D, Risner has commenced di- reading that blasted piece about me. Bu® why can't you newspaper fellows tell all the truth while you are about it?” On belng urged to tell his side of the story, he declined until he should have a chance to talk with Mr. Vaughan, ‘‘This after- noon,” he said, *I shall prepare and hand to the pross a letter vindicating my- self before this community. I want to confer with Mr. Vaughan about it firat, and until then I will make no state- ments,” and then he settled back with his usual pompous airas though he was conferring a high favor on his listeners to say even this much to them. Someone suggested the query—*‘Where's Madam?” referring to the girl with whom he eloped. “0, she came back with me as far as Omaha, and stopped there. She'll be over this afternoon. Madam iw all right.” By this time Mr, Vaughan had conclu- ded the case before him and the hop- skip-and-a-jump secretary walked into his presence, or rather stumbled in and seated himself in a chair infront of him and player and employer meet for the first time since the late un- pieasantness, ‘‘Well, Alfred, this unpleasant duty for me,” and the little mayor began opening the information filed n%:imt the young man. ‘‘Never mind about reading those papers, 1 waive all reading and all that sort of a thing and am ready for trial,” and the young man nerviously pmphasized his words with a frequeut tapping of his pencil on the table, It was tgon past the hour for dinner, and the mayor told him he could do nothing with the case till afternoon, remarking, *‘ You must get right down to business, now, Alfred ; gush and talk won't answer now. Take off your hat, ir, as you are in court.” Then followed a little talk, “‘J. Alfred” turned over his office keys, and some papers he had, among which was a rate of about $30 loft with Vaughan by some one for col lection. The mayor made him give an order on the girl for his baggage, there being one valise which was said to con- toin some important papers taken from the office. A mittimus was made out, and the young man was then taken down to jail by Ohief Skinner. A jail dinner was not good enough for * secretary,” and giving the jailer a half. he ordered a special repast, after finish- ing which he lighted a cigar, and with heels higher than his head sat pre- tending to read, when some of the news- paper gang, who went gathering up news about the old bnilding dropped in on him. He at first refused to make anystatement, but said finally that he was coming out of this all right, and would be out of jail in s few hours. He didn’t know what Vaughan intended to do, and he did not “‘give a dam,” to use his own words, He thought the letter he wrote Vaughan from Omaha explained matters sufficiently. It was true he had lost some in gambling, but not more than $20, and he did not owe around town over $56. He had handled thousands of dollars of Vaughan's money, had kept all the ~ accounts ’ul’ the electric light company, and there had not been a cent missed. He should defeud his own ouse. ‘‘They say a manls alfool whs triesto © his own lawver, but I'm going to try it, though this is the first time I ever was in- side a jail " *4J, Alfred” had planned to marry his fond one yesterday, and expected her to follow him over to t i but she remained in mett house, and the m: take place. Late in the afternoon the young man was brought before Justice Vaughn and the cases, one for embezzlement and one fox larceny, were continued, one was set for two o'clock Wednesday afternoon, and the other Thursday afternoon, The bonds were fixed at $200 and $300 and the prisoner went out with Chief Skinner to get signers, Mr. Vaughn tell- ing Skinner to keep him in his charge if he could not give bond. e — e private ge did not Bankrupt clothing sale for ten days at Al 502 Broadway, All the balauce of the Cnisago defunct clothing house have to be closed out inside of ten days regard- {e: of price.
