The running team of the fire depart- ment here has about declded not to take part In the state tournament. Some interesting Ocuncil Bluffa news, necessarily crowded off this psge, will be found elsewhere thls morning, Judge Lyman and F. M. Hunter have formed a partnership Inthe practice of 1iw, making a strong firm indeed. The congregatlonslists_are to have a social, Thursday evening, at the home of Miss May Phillips, on Bluffs street.

The ball to be glven to-morrow even- Ing, by the Pottawattamie grove of Drulds, {s to be held In Everett's hall. A jolly time Is promised to all who af tend. There was a crowd on the streets yes- terday, it belng cirous day. There was little dlsorderliness, and the police did not have s> much to do as they an- ticipated. Max Mohn, who Is alwaya dolng some- thing to improve his Creston house, has now put a very neat iron ralling around the deek in the office, and s making other improvements. The distrlct court adjourned over yes- terday until next Thursday, the judge having other business on hand, prominent among which Is the hearing of the judi- clal contest at Des Molnes. M. C. Galnes and G. F. Bordman, who have been associated in the selling of oil, have dissolved partnership, Mr. Galnes will contlnue in the business, and will continue to deliver to his customers by wagon. A This evening there will be a happy wedding at No. 814 Sixth street, the parties being Mr. M. F. McCune and Migs Edith Leckwood. Mr. McCune is car repalrer at the transfer, and well known among the rallway boys, The iron plpe for the extension of the water mains along Pearl street arrived, and is being strewn along the street ready for the laying. Arrangements are also belng made 8o that thesupply may be utllized in running & water motor In the Bke job rooms, for the presses, and the Herald office also 1s planning to do away with steam and use & water motor. The Barbour dramatlc company opened at the dime museum last evenlog, and ‘will continue there this week, and per- haps longer. This afternoon the chil- dren have a free matinee, and this even— Ing the company give another of thelr regular entertalnments, which, with the other attractlons of the museum, affords an excellent opportunity of getting a great deal of amusement for a very little money. - In another column will be found some practical, Interesting reading matter, far- nished by P. C. DeVol, one of Council Blaffs’ oldest and most reliable busine men, Mr. De Vol has been In business here since 1861, and there is probably no mon io the ity who has bullt up a more solid and clean record, and in his line of trade there s none better posted, and knowing better how to satlsfy the public both in quality and prices. This morning the wide-awake dry goods house of Cocke & Morgan have something new to say to the readers of the Bee. Thg firm has jumped into a remarkably large business for & compara- tively new house, and the class of goods kept by them and the wonderful bargains offered lndicate that they not only pro- pose to keep their trade, but to increass it. They are demonstrating that enter- prise and fair deal will draw trade to this city from a large extent of country. Each mail brings them many orders, in addition to thelr home trade, and they take such special pains to satisfy these mall customers, that this part of {heir business is rapldly increasing also. It Is suggested that one of the ways to stop the falso alarms, so frequent of late, s for the council to amend the fire ordinance so that that the minute men and others will not be pald any extra amount if the alarm proves to be false, and then there will not be any object in any man connected with the department allowlng avy false alarm, and no one can charge that they may be interested in baving false alarms, a8 1s now 8o often intimated, snd perbaps unjustly. Let the men be paid well enough for attend. ance at actual fires, g0 that they can af- ford to turn out for false alarms without extra pay, and overy man will then be direetly tuterested in dotecting wheever is guilty of sending in a ‘false one, Tais cuange Is eald to have been tried very successfully In other cities of this size, ——— To the Public, My wife, Mary Gerdes, having left my board aud bed without canse or provoca- tion, I hereby notify the public that I will not be responsible for any bills con- treoted by ber.

NEATLY NABBED, A Pair of Pickpockets Arrested on the Circus Grounds, Yesterdsy a neat capture was made by Deputy Marshals Edward Bates and George Guanella, They were watching for crooks at the clrcus grounds, and soon notlced two young men evidently trying to plck pockets, and keeplng closs on their track saw one of them put his hand Into the pocket of a lady, but instead of grabblng the fellow too moon, as is generally the case, or else too late, they 8o mansged It that just the moment the fellow had gained possession of the lady's purse, they nabbed him and his compan- fon. There was nothing that they could say In defense, and the one in poeseesion of the pocket book frankly confessed that he had taken it, but said that he was out of money, food and work, and that he was too proud to beg, even if not too proud to steal. The two were taken to the city jail and put Into the steal cell, They gave their names as vames Howard and Willilam Keating. The lady whose pocket was picked was Mrs, Lizzle Hasty, who lives at No. 111 Washington avenue, There was only $1.10 in the pecketbook, 80 that they could have made no big haul for the risk of belng sent to the peniten- tlary. —————— DELAYS OF THE LAW. Another Hitch in the Prohibition Cases, Yesterday was the time set for the hearing of the Injunctlon cases by Judge COonnor at Glanwood, but Instead of the day developing any sensatlonal features in the prohibitory fight, a continuance was granted untll this morning, this be— ing by consent of the attorneys on both sidos. Tho eases brought before Judge Aylesworth here seem to have been con- tinued indefinitely, it belng understood that they will not come up until the cases at Glenwood have been heard. ——— COome and see gouds and prices at the new boot and shoe store cf R. 1, Skiles No. 102, Maln stree t., The Two-Thirds Majority, Once upon a time a fellow who under- stood human nature pretty well, and who delighted to play upon it, went into the banks of the town in which he lived, and asked the cashlers and other skillful ac- countants what he represented to be a problem that had been given up by all the school teachers, it belng: ‘“What two whole numbers multlplied together would make seven?’ The expert ac. countants studled over It quite a while, and several gave 1t up, when ono simple fellow solved it by saying, “‘seven and one.” This is about the way with the ques- tlon ralsed by the mayor, ** what s two- vhirds majority of a council of slx mem- bers?” If there had been no question ralsed, and such an sir of mystery put around the matter, any school-boy would | 6 50. say *‘two-thirds of six is four,” but now he has got the bralns of two or three of his pets all mixed up and t'red out over his discevery that two.thirds of six is five, This new system of mathematics may do in some cases, but the people de- mand a return to the Jeffersonlan slm- pllclty. LA Substantlal abstracts of titles and raa estate loans, J, W. & E. L. Squlre, 10 Poarl street. e ——— A Flaming Ohariot, One of the must unlque adventures that ever came to our attention was re. Iated by John J. Vanderveer, who came in last night. John works the road for ‘Van Brant, Thompson & Co., of Councll Bluffs, and yesterday took a team and buggy to drive from Crete over to Dor chester. He 1s addicted to the weed (the moral cf this story will be found a strong one s the tobacco habit) and beguiled the tedious hours of the drive | % by pufting s fragrant Havana, Toe top of his buggy was down and he did not know of the comblnation which {he breeze and his cigar had formed agalns: | @ him until the smell of burning leather caused him to turn around, when he dlscovered that the Inflammable buggy top was In a brisk blaze. Ho stopped and tried to put the fire out, but succeed- ed in doing nothing but burning his fingers badly, He then got a wrench an Athmgtefl to take the top off the buggy, but be could not work it. Finally in despair he jumped Into the buggy and laylog whip to the team di. rected his eff rts toward keeping the flame In the back part of the vehlclo by rapid motion, The peole who met him gave him the road without quarrelling for half, and the farmers along his route dropped thelr lines and started at the vision of the flaming charlot in open mouth astonishment, He finally pulled into Dorchester with all the leather top burned off, and bows burned In two. As @ spectacular ¢ntertainment 1t »as a tuo- oess, but he says the wear and tear on the finances and nerves are so great that he couldn’t be indaced to repeat it.— [Lincoln (Neb,) Journal. Mr, Vanderveor has been at home sev- eral days with his hands tled up, and has preserved & mysterlous sllence s to how he hurt them, merely saying that he had met with a little acoldent. {Now, that the hands are about healed, the secret comes out, and Van owns the corn. He that If the buggy top had been of material a8 on the buggles sold by him, instead of cheap ocotton, it would mot have caught fire, and he will turn the ill luck Into an argument to clinch his own trade more closely. J.J, {s well now, and will soon be after the trade In Ne- braska with usual liveliness. PERSONAL, Jobn P, Organ, of Neols, reached Bechtele's yesterday. F.
