Where Is that wagon brldge ? The mayor had evidently purchased move gocds in Oouncil Bluffs yesterday than he could carry home very well. They were not of the right kind, elther, #l all right to patronize home Instita- oes liberally avd enthusisstically, but he should purchase a larger proporticn of dry gooda. Among the adornments of the hall last evening, at the K. of L. ball, was a large banner bearing the words: ‘‘When bad men comblne, the good must assccl- ate, else they will fall one by one an un- pitied sacrifice In a contemptible strug- gle.” The Knights ot Labor had a grand time at thelr ball 1a the Masonic hall last evening. There was a large delegation from Omahs, and all went as merry as merry could be untll a late hour. There ‘was exvellent music, and all the arrange- ments were so planned and ocarrled out a8 to make the aff.ir a great success, and an enjoyable occasion to all who particl- pated. The soclable to be given by the Con- gregational ladles at the resldence of thelr pastor, Rev. Mr, Orofts, to-morrow even- ing, promises to be a very enjoyable affalr, Aslde from the soclal attractions there will be a dime entertalnment, an Interesting musical and lterary pro- gramme having been arranged. Every- body is invited and all will be made wel- come, The opera house Is now without ushers. It seems Mr, Dohany not belng satisfied with obtalning the services of tho ushers free, requested them to hereafter be on hand at 7 o'clock whenever there was an entertalnmeat at the opera house, In- stead of 7:30 as formerly, and the ushers “qult him cold” then and there, Itisa matter of regret, as the ushers were glv- Ing the publlo excellent service, and it Is to be hoped that arrangements will soon be made by which they, or some others equally as grod, may be secured.

This Instruction 1s erroneous, being in conflict with pravious ruliogs of the court holding that whoever contribates to the formation of habits of intoxlcation is liable only for the damages caused by his own act.” The following were admitted to prac- tlce on motion: H.

A Mysterious Boatman Seems to be Connected With Mr, spetman’s Disappearance and Death, There are atill mary surm'ses concern- ing the mysterious death of Mr. Freder- Ick Spetman, of Mills county, and little real information to be galned. The in- vestigation has so far revealed the fact that he left his home with the intention of golng aczoss the river on some buslness, and that he took with him $60 out of 875 which had been pa'd on some acoount iting her home in Nebraska Olty, she will | of the Councll Bluffs hunt- take an eastern trlp, and hopes by next|ing club, the other $25 being year to be able to take up again the art|intended for some other party. He has been traced to the river, where he evi- dently reached a polnt nearly opposite the leland, which is opposite Beilevue, Neb,, which seems to be a spot not hav- lng mny too good a reputation, it belng sald that horse thisves and other hard cltizens frequent that locallty, 1t being rather eecladed, and belog nelther within the llmits of Nebraska and Iowa, aud the jurlediction of the law belug thercfore jull of loop holes. 1t lssald tha' & man In which she Is so enthuafastic and suc- ocessful. John Jay Fralney has been allowed by the county board $345 for justice fees, larger amount than all the other jue- tlces put together clalmed. It msy be that Fraloey’s court is a busler and more impurtant one thun all the other courts of the county put together, but 1t is strange that out of elghty-three cases|with s boat orsted to the over seventy were dlsmissed, there belng | lowa eide just before Me, 1o oause for arrest. In other words, in |Spetman reached that spot, ana that this men visited one of the farm houses near there It is surmissd that Mr, »petman, wanting to cross the river, fell in with thls msn, snd thet he had something to do with the mysterious dea h, or at least is able to throw s me light upon the ecircumstances, Tracke are found resembling Mr, Spstwan's foot- steps. bat no sppesrance of s stroggls was discovered. It ls possible that he was fovelgled Into golog outo the leland, and thet there was foul play there, but wherever the reeno f the tragedy might have been it seems that there must have bren fuul play, for alihough there were no very strange murks on the & court which costs the county more than all the other justlce courts, seven-elghths of the cases whick are brought have not enough to them to war- rant a trlal even. The Institution for the deaf and dumb opened yesterday with large attendance and with good prospects for a sucoessfal snd enjyable year's work., The new bulldings belug now eompleted are ocou- pled éor the first time, the new diniog roon and chepel and the new school bullding seeming to plesse the puplis greatly, and cerwaiuly belng great im- provem:n’, There have been fow changes in the corps of instructors Miss Onristle has taken a position in 1he icetitation v Delavan, Wis, snd her plsce has been filled here by Miss Garm.n, of Burling- tou.

Kirscht, jr., and brother of the bride, and by her two slaters, Misses Emms and Mary Kirecht. The presents were very numerous, and many of them were elegant. After opportunity had been given for express- log congratulations and well-wishes, the evening was glven over to the mer riment and festlvities due such a happy event. In the rear of the house a large platform had been erected, it belng thirty by fifty feet in extent, and hers was dancing until a late hour, the Bava- rlan orchestra furnishing the mueic. Tempting and bountifal refresements were served In the west parlors, Miss Ella Stabbs and Mrs. Chapman, of Danlap, won pralss by the exoellency of the groom’s cake, the work of thetr hands, while the bride's cake was prepared by Mr. A Loule. The newly wedded patr intend to leave this evening on an eastern trip, visiting Ohl- cago, Detrolt, Milwsukee, Madison, and then settle In thelr new home in Platte- ville, Wis., where Mr. Cowduroy is en- gaged In the dry goods business with his father, the firm being Willlam Cowduroy & Son, They will bear with them the best wishes and kindlicst remembrances of many friends here. THE COTTON DEAL. Ancher Suit against the Hinckleys for Representing Ewen Bros, The spesulative fever which had such a run in this part of the stats, and which was oconfined mainly to cotton deals through Ewen Bros., of New York, snd thelr agents, saem s to have had its run, and the viot! are now mourning as those who little or mo hope. Another snit was started yesterday in the district court, growing out of these trans- actions, it being entitled Henrletta Jack- son vs E. R. Hinckley and O. R, Hinck- ley., The petltion sets forth that the de- fendants in August, 1884, represented through her agent, James A. Jackeon, that Ewen Bros., of New York, had a cotton deal on hand which weuld mature in October, and that the accraed profits had already at that time reached $125 for every $600 inveated, an that if she would P. [invest 8500 she would get at the maturi- ty of the deal not only her mouey back, but the $125 of profit already gained, and whatever additlonal prafiv might be got, fwhich would amount to ten or fifteen per cent, more. On the strength of these representations she 1o- vested her money, taking two blocks of $500 each, and had never got any re. tarns, the money, though lost to sight, still to memory desr, aud as the d f-nd ants bad moved away, and were secking to dispose of thelr pi rty, a wrlt of at- tachment is asked for, and a judgment for the amount and Interest, e B et ricnio, The St. Paul's Sunday echool plonio, which was announced for next Saturday, has been postponed until later.
