THE By M RATES, =50 sents pet woek §10.00 por yoar OFFICE: ¥o.7 Pear] Btraet, Near Broadway MINOR MENTION. Reiter's new fall stock of cloth. See J Two drones and a vagrant made up yesterday's police business, Louis Aldrich appears Friday night in tho opera house in **My Partner.” Cocke & Morgan are having their cloak room fitted up very attractively. New York papers now reach Council Bluffe in about fifty hours after coming from the press. The Louise Sylvester company appoars in “Little Ferrett,” Saturday afternoon, and in *‘Freaks”in the evening. The board of registration closed last evering. Those whose names are not on thelist can now do nothing but swear. The Methodist church choir will give a coneert for the benefit of the church in the Masonic temple, Friday ovening, Oc- tober 7. The ladies of the Catholic church close their festival with a dance this evening. Last evening they gave a musical enter- tainment. The description of a stolen horse re- corded at police headquarters reads: ‘‘A black horse with one white foot in good working order.” The space between the street car rails on Broadway was being paved yesterday 80 that the cars may not be delayed by stroet improvements, Complaint is made that after the sewer pipes on Broadway are laid and the ditches filled that great piles of dirt are left for days, obstructing travel. Fred Uhlen, who was sentenced at the district court here to three years for horse stealing, was released by death last week, after having served only a small portion of his sentence. Col. Trox, the veteran republican, was taken for Pusey at the Red Oak rally the other night. The valiant veteran hardly knew whether to take it for a compliment or not. Mr. Dohany now proposes to clear out the gang of boys who have been in the habit of disturbing almost every enter- tainment at the opera house. A good move, even if it is a little late. There should be no stinginess about the decorations and the illuminations of the buildings Friday night. Council Bluffs should be all ablaze for once, and show the people what the city can do. One good has grown out of the travel- ing men's gathering here. The news- papers of the land have had more or less notices of it, and Council Bluffs has got the benefit of the advertising. A horse which strayed away from its owner tumbled into a sewer ditch Tuaes- day night on lower Broadway and was found there by the officers and taken to a stable, where the owner found it yos- terday. for several days and were going acroes the stand river, without any requisition, to trial on the charge of robbery. They claim that the man was not robbed, but lost his money gambling and then ‘‘squealed The traveling men’s gathering closed yestorday. The ‘‘banquets” sorved at the hotels proved enjoyable, especially that at the Pacific house, where an ele game dinner was spread, and the on one of the best, tasty gant menu printed engraved cards which Boston could pro with the “Wel- The closing duce, together words come, knights of the grip.” scenes of the day was a skating carnival at the rink, The republicans have on their local ticket recognized the workingmen by putting on two men who specially repre- sent them, one being 8. 8. P, Coggeshall, who is one of the nominees for justice of the peace, and the other Mr. Lawrence Kinnehan, who 1s nominee for township clerk. These two men have given much time, thought and work to the labor question and the advancement of the interests of the workingmen, and their records being excellent, many democratic workingmen will support them, while the republicans will support them to a man, The mock conyrees given by the Y. M. C. A, at Beno's hall Tuesday evening proved a groat success, was largely at- tended, and was evidently enjoyed by all who attended. Prominent senators were impersonated and a bill granting suffrage to women was discussed at length and duly championed by noted female suffrag- ists, The whole was quite entertaining and by no means uninstructive, The Y. M. C. A. requests Tur Bk to publicly express the thanks of the associatlon to Mr. Beno for his generosity In giving them the use of his elegant hall for this gathering. The association, under the energetic management of Secretary Har- ry Curtis, is preparing for other enter- tainments in the near future and the pub- llc favor having been won by the pre- vious attempt, there will be no difliculty in getting out crowds any time. s At the roller rink this evening every- thing in free to the visitors. A SLIOK STEAL STOPPED, A Stolen Horse Drops Dead While Being Driven Off, A man named Oscar Jackson arrlved at Lower’s hotel on Main street Tuesday night from Ringo county, intending to go onto a farm in Nebraska. He had his teams, wagons, and utensils with him, and one of the horses was taken quite sick. A stranger falling into conversa tlon with him, offered to cure the horse for a dollar, and the offer being accepted, the man sont the owner of the animal to a drug store after some romedles, and in the meantime began walking the horao about in the street. When the owner returned, neither the horse nor the pre- tended doctor could be found. It then flashed through the owner’s mind that the horse had been stolen from him, and notifying the officers, a search was made. It was found that the fellow had taken the horse southward, and had stopped at one place and offered to trade it, but not succeeding had gone on. Sev- eral hours afterward the horse was found lying dead in the road. The animal had ovidently been unable to go further and the fellow had abandoned it and skipped out, fearing the consequences. It was Justice Abbott will have little or no trouble In getting re-clected. Ho is a voteran, and an old citizen,isexperienced in the oftice, and has hosts of friends.

RALLY AT RED 0AK. among the novelties to be shown up here on Friday night. From Malvern and Hastings and other surrounding points 250 more were added. At Emerson the Blaine and Logan club of that place joined in about 75 strong, and by the time the special reached Iead Oak it had on board about 650, On marching up from the depot it was found that there was already 1,200 torches in line, and atill coming. The ladies’ clubs attracted much atten- tion and excited much enthusiasm. Red Oak itseif had quite a large club of la- dies, and from Villisca and Atlantic others joined, so thre were 350 in line, neatly uniformed and some of them showing a proficiency in drill, which put some of the men to shame. The procession was #0 long, and the crowd so great, that it was 9 o'clock before the line of march was entered upon, and it took an hour anda half to complete it. An actual count by a democrat, placed the number as 2,800, while, in marching four abreast, it took 45 minutes to pass a given point. The decorations of the buildings were most elaborate. The churches and school houses as well as other buildings were illuminated, and the city presented a blaze of light. All say that no such demonstration has yet been seen, and it exceeded even the democratic demonsatra- tion here. The clubs present did not turn out in full force either, as many were saving their energies to attend the great republican rally here Friday night, which it is expected will surpass all others. Red Oak may well feel proud of ita show Tueeday night.
