(JOUNCIL BLUFFS, Wednesday Morning October 16, i SUBSORIPTION RAz::l’:"“h p— « §10.00 per yoar OFFICE: No. 7 Pear] Streot," Near Broadway. MINOR MENTION. Bargalns at Seaman's olosing out sale. See J. Reiter's new fall stock of cloths, 1t cost the city about §100 to have Main street cleaned, H. Friedman's new cloak and suit store 341 Broadway, now open. The republican township convention meets at the court house o'clock this afternoon, Permit to wed was yesterday granted W. R. Wileox, of Indianapolis, and Mrs, H. Richards, of Chicago. The democratic town caucuses will be held next Monday evening and the town convention on Wednesday of next week. There is somoe havoc caused by the ap- pearance of hog cholera in Harrlson county, and some who own hogs on the bottoms here are reported as alarmed at symptoms manifested. The Council Bluffs steam laundry wag- on had one of its periodical spins yester- day, the flying horse leaving the top of the wagon near the corner of Main and Fifth avenue and the gearing In front of Mr. Terwilliger's house. The sewerage was yesterday connectod at the corner of Broadway and First street, so that the excavating for the fintshing of the paving on Broadway com- menced witha rush, The south side of the street is first to be paved and then the north side. William Farrell, of Oreston, was before Justice Abbott yesterday on a charge of assaulting Pat Hanifon, It appeared that the latter for disturbing the peace and sorenity of Farrell's saloon was thrown out. The justice dismissed the case, but ordered Farrell not to sell Hanifan any more liquids. Arrangements are made with the rail- ways by which only one and a third fare for round trip tickets will be charged to those coming to Council Bluffs to the great democratic rally and speech of Car- lisle next Saturday evening. It is ex- pected that there will be from three to four thousand people here. Sneakthieves or burglars went through Henry Macklin's house In the nortliwest- orn part of the city, within two doors of the home of the chief of police, but got little for their trouble, The family be- ing away, they ransacked the house quite thoroughly, and evidently expected to find some money in one of the beds, for they took the clothing off and ripped open the tick, A new train has been put on the ‘Wabash road vetween here and Chicago, but it is at present no mail train, As this train passes through the best part of southeastern lowa, although a number of important towns such as Shenandoah, Clarinda, Carpenterville, Humiston, etc., it will prove a great convenience if mail is carrled on this train, Many of the business men of these places, as well as the Blufls will be greatly accommodated, if mail was added to this train. The ' pcst-office folks should be jogged wup a little, aud with their attention called to it,would doubt- less give the additional accommodations, The examination of Cufl Johnson on the charge of murdering McGonigal came o an end before Justice Vaughan yester- day, but the decision was reserved until Friday morning, The evidence against Johnson does not seem to be as etartling and convicting as it was reported it would be. The other colored man, who, was <claimed, was goiug to swear that he saw Johnson strike the blow, would swear to nothing of the sort. It is hoped that the case will b; worked up more fully, for it will be a disgrace to Council Bluffs if a man can be slugged, robbed, and killed in the streets, and the murderer, who- ever ue may be, escape punishment, A case Is now pending before Jude Ayles- werth, which may bring out some fur- ?&6“ a8 to Johnson's guilt or inno- e ——— Turned A Trick, A verdatit, whose name is George Zu- ern, and who lives in the eastern part of the county was yesterday afternoon made the victim of a small confidence game at the dummy depot. The sharper repre gented himself as a farmer who wanted to hire help, and the verdant agreed to work for him, The sharper wanted the verdant to change s §20 bill, but as the Jatter had but 15 he borrowed that of him, to pay some little bills, promising 10 get the $20 bill broken, and hand him back the money before they left town for “*the farm,” He after getting the $15 of course gave the verdant the slip, e — A Risky Blaze, Yesterday afternoon the roof of the gas house af the institution for the deaf and dumb caught fire and made a brisk blaze, but it was fortunately put out before tl;‘e ressrvoir were reach- fl.“;‘fi“bfl:l’d?r:; is located about 150 foet from the main bualding, aud the damage is confined mainly to the roof. Mr. F. Driscoll, of Omaha, drove out to the institution in compapy with his friend, Max Mohn, and they arrived just in time to help in suppressing the flames, and did velisut service. In putting cut the fire, Mr, Wilkine, of the institu'e, had his right ear and hand quite badly e — ‘Collision ot Coke Traine, Pirpspong, October 14,—Two coke trains ¢ llided pesx Monovgahela th 8 m rning kill- iog bwo and ixjuring five or & X giner men, WARD WARDENS.

Mr. Cahn, of man Golse, Mynster McMahan and Siedentopf were present. The bond of John Casick, as police- man was presented and returned. The contract and bond of Mitchell Vincent was presented. The estimated cost of the work to be done on tho creek at pros- ent was reported as from £15,000 to £18,000, Alderman Mynster thought that, if as at present contemplated, the sewerage was simply run into the slough, that would soon £l up. Something ought to be lone, but It seemed to him that the work should commence at the other end so that the creek could empty into the river. Alderman McMahon also opposed the present proposec improvement, on the ground that it would soon fill up. Alderman Siedentopf wes surprised that two aldermen should come in at this late hour and oppose it, after they had passed an ordinance, got bids, awarded a contract, etc. The creek would not be filled up very easily, for it was now pro- posed to have it sixteen feet at the bot- tom and forty feot acrossat the top, making a pretty good sized canal. The city engineer explained by his chart the proposed improvement. The fall in two miles would be a little less than four feet, and from Broadway to the river nineteen feet. The engineer thought it would prevent any overilows up town any way, and all along Rthe creek he thought, It would probably need, however, some cleaning out every year. He did not think it would be better to first open up the lower part of the creek from the slough to to the river, instead of first opening up from Broadway to the slough. The bonds and contract of Mitchell Vincent and Moore were then approved, 80 that now the work may be expected to proceed. On motion of Ald. Siedentopf a com- mittee of two was appointed to confer with the railway companies in regard to putting a bridge over the proposed sewer ditch, Ald. Siedentopf and Mynaster were appointed. Ald, McMahon snd Ald. Gelce were ap- poin*ed with the city engineer to ses about right of way, The mayor and auditor were instructed to sign the sewerage bonds and turn them over to the olty treasurer. City attorney Holmres presented a res- olution prepared by him providing for as- sessing the cost of the new sewerage ditch against abjacent property. A resolution was oftered for the issulng of a free license for one year to Dohany's opera house, the reason being that the clty agreed to do some piling in the rear of the house on the creek, and not having done o Mr. Dohany had done the plling at his own expense. Adopted. The city attorney reported adversely to the petition for entting down the trees on north Main strest. Uoncurred in, The city attorney also reported ad- versely to the petition for the passage of an ordinance closing the barber-shops on Sunday. Report received and actlon postponed nntil the next meeting, He reported also adversely against the potition of Bell anl Hall and others in regard to paving on upper Broadway. The claim of the petitioners was that the street at that point was much wider than elsewhere, and the cost of the extra space should ba charged up to the inter section. Mr. Bonham spoke in support of the claim and against the report. The report was concurred in, The attorney reported against allowing the ciaim of Mr, XKilfeather for $200 damage to potatoes by overflow. Con- carred in, On motion the pay of the policomen and it Schoentgen that whilo there he made to them certain false representationsas to his property, and that on the strength of these statements they gave him credit, the indebtedness being about &1 200. The case was continued until the 6th of November next, and the accused gave bail for his appearance then. expectations were high, but Miss Stevens tully met them, and the expression of ap- preciation #o clearly shown by the audience disarmed all criticlsm. To make use of all the complimentary adjectives which Miss Stevens fairly merits, might appearfuleome to those who have nntheard her, and yet would fall short of giving the full expression of feeling to her en- thusiastic listeners, She is grand, and ae a pianiste hor career, which has openad #o brillisntly, promises still brightor Omaha, a most excellent pianist, also as- slated, — A SERIOUS OHARGE.
