Cobneil Binfs Prepring for Two Miles More of Paving, The Contract to bs Let to S, P, Folsom, of 8t. Paul. Bome Oitizens Object to Paving, A speclal meeting of the city councll was held yesterday afternoon, at which Alderman Mynster presided, and Alder- men Seldentopf, Benneit, Suaub and Shugart were present. A remonstrance against paving Bouth Firat sireet, olgned by property owners, was preeented. There was 3 011 feet represented. Mr. A, O, Gea am, in be half of the protestors, explalned more fully tke reasons for not desiring paving just now. A storm eewer should first be putin. If that was putin now, he would not oppose paving, G, F. Young opposed paviog at present, not thinking 1 an fnuedlate necessi'y. Macshal Torley sppeared to remoa strate sgalnet the paving of Wash iogton wvenue. He thought that 1 tomething was not done fur the creek the whole avenue would be washed away. Phil Armour waoted to have i Washiogton avenue paving put off to analher vear A EARAA pay on Becond #'roet, and it made (0o big a bill for one yoar. A petition of proparty owners on Wil. Dow avenue was presented, seking that Third steoet. Mer. Tarley did not object to paving Willow avenue. A remonatrance was presented by prop- erty owners agalast paviog Park avenue, on the ground of times being hari. acd the work unaecessary. This remonstrance affected only that part of the avenue from High School s'reet to Pomona street. Mr. Dohany, one of the signers, sald he would not object if the paviog was run clear up to the park, but thought this should be left to snother year, Alderman Sledentopt offered the fol- lowing resslation: Resolved, That the prayer of the prop- erty holders on north Second street from Washington avenue to Fletoher avenue, stating that they have arranged to com- ply with the ozder of the ocouncll as to the paving, curblng, patklng and side- walking of the same, and asking *hat ssid street be exempted from any contract for #ald work, be and the same Is hereby granted upon the condition that the work of such Improvement be commenced on or before the first of October next, and that the lowest bidder of the bids to be opened to-aay shall be entltled to the contract for that work on or after the 24 day of Ootober next. The resolution was adopted. The council, before opening the blda for paving, pasted a resolutlon reserving the right to rejact any and a!l bids, or to reject bida for any portlon of the street advertised, so as to protect those who have made remonstrances, and not pave in eome of the work advertised, If, on in- vestigation, the coancll shall deem it ad- visable rot to do so. The bids were then opened. The bids were for paving with white cedar blocks the following streets: Willow svenua from eatt slde of Third street west to Maln street Bryant street from north slde of Broad way north to brldge across Indian creek. Second street from north eide of Fletcher avenue, south to Broadway. Washington avenue from east side of Oakland avenue, east to Second street. Park avenae from south side of Broad- way, south to Pomona street. Firat street trom scuth side of Broad- way, south to Grahsm avenue. All grading to within one foot of the road hed s considered extra work., The bids were based on four different modes of payment—first, cash; second, Interssc- tion paving bonde; third, intersection paving warrants; fourth, special assess- ment paving warrants. The blds were referred to the commit- tee on paving, with Instructions to repert ata meetlrg to be held next Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock, at which time a contract will probably be made with S. P. Folsom, Jr, his bld belng by far the lowest. The blds aro much lower than those of last year, the lowest then being $1.68. The councll held a brlef executive seesion for an informal dlscussion of the remons‘rances presented agalnst paviog certaln streets. e Dr. Weat, dentist, over BEE office. 2 Rl ELEGANT WEDDING AND STYLISH Statlonery, the finest and mcst complete line ever brought t> the city now at PRYOR'S BEE JOB OFFICE, Invltatione, Programe, Ragrats, Calling Cards, etc., THE LATEST STYLES, and In quanti'i:a to sult, Also a beautifal line of ENGRAVED FOLDERS AND CARDS.

The New Conrt House fo be Built for Less Than the People Voted, Wickham Brous, the Winners. The county board met yesterday and opened the blds for the steam heatlng cf the court house and jail, and took Into conslderatlon the bids for building the court house. As a result of theirdelibera- tlons it was declded to glve Wickham Bros., of thisci y, the contract for build- ing the cowt hoose. It was decided to have 1t built of Bedford stone, this be- ing the best as well as 1the most cootly in price named in the bide. The contract for this stone is let for §141,273, and Wickham Bros, allow $1,000 for the old court house, which is to be torn down, The blds on steam heating rhowed Blalr, Dunlap & Hopkins, of Caicago, to be the lowes', and the contract was lat to them for §6 393. It was thought that it wcu'd be b:tter to bave a separate boller house located between the jail and the court house, but neatly all the prac- ttcal men who examinsd into the matter, advised the board #gunst this plan, claiming that it woula cost §2,000 more, and not be 8o satlefacory as to put s boller fn esch buildiog. The board there- fore decided on the latter methed cf heatlng. The letting of these contracts fixes the cost of the uew court house, complete, ready to furnish and occupy. at$146 671, which comes withia the $150,000 voted by the people.

Israc), & Rich old Recluse of Baliimore, Kxpires Afier a Solitary Life of Over Twenty Years, Alone, in the old mansion where he had lived the life of & hermit for twen'y years and more, William H* Isreal, » wealthy ci'izan of Baltimore, dled Friday night, He never weut out except a' n'ght, when he would sit on his front porch and g z2 st the stars for hours. Uatil about five years ago he used to g to the butcher and the baker dally, bu of lats he was too lufirm to lesve the house, and his mga's were hrought to hlw from a res'aurant, When tha wa ter took the terminus of the proposed javingltie plain breaklast this mornleg and bony batd which was wont t) reach out and grasp the food did not appear. The walter called a neighbor, and together they entered the house, to find the old man dyiog at the foot of & stalrway down which he bad fallen. He explred in a short time. The secrot of the hermit's life is ped In mystery. For the last twenty yol the house in which he has lived alone has been shut up. It hes never been oleaned or painted, and was gradaal- ly falllng into decay. The houee was once magnificently furnished. Dast several Inches thick covered the velvet- cushloned farnitare In the parlor and the rosewood baffet in the dining-room. It is sald that a love affalr caused the man to become a recluse. Before he closed himself in from the world the house was the resldence of his father, the late Flelder Israel, who carrled on an exten- slve conveyancing b and was very rich, The businera is still conducted by two other sons, The hermit was 70 years old and worth abont $100,000. —e——— . An Iowa Mulbatton Gets in His Work Dunuvque, Aug, 16.-~A gentleman who has just returned from a trlp through Northern Iowa tells a very strange story of the abduction cf a young glel fifteen years old, during the war, by a band of pypsies who were camped near Sherrlll's Mound, a German se‘tlement situated ten miles north of this city, The glrl, whom he is pleased to call Maggle Gray, he dercribes as exceptlonally pretty. The gypsies were quite a novelty, and the young people in the settlement thronged the camps to have a look In the mirror of the future, Maggie Gray wes persuaded by & young man to accompany him to the camp to have thelr fortunes told, This was done by sn old, witchylooking woman, who supplemented it with a cup of liqald substance which in color re- sembled wine, but in reslity was a* drug. The young girl soon fell into a comatose condltion, from which she did not recover until she was In a country of which she knew nothing, not even the locality. In this way she has passed twenty-four ycars of her life, makiog no effort to escape, belleving, as she was told by her abduot- ors, that her father had sold her to them, and that any attempt to escape would be futile. Three months ago she mads he eacaps from St. Joe, Mo., to Omaha Neb. She arclved av Snerrill's three weeks ago, and told, almost verbatim, the foregolng story. At the time she was spirited away her heart-broken par- ents left Sherrill’s and went to Dakota, belleving that their daughter was drowned. The daughter expeoted to find them at Sherrill's, but was eadly mle- taken, Over a week ago she started, this time by rail, for the home of he parenta, and, ere this can find {ts way to the pub- lte, will be enjoying their company.
