Clark, locating enginoer of the Union Pacific, spent Sunday with his family in this city and has gone to K ney, Nebraska, to look after some busig ness there, Two men were yesterday fined in the police court for fast driving. Just how they succeeded in driving fast over the streets as they ave at present is a secret which they won't give away. Loster Lane, one of the pupils of the in- stitution for the deaf and dumb from Dallas_county, died on Monday. ' funeral services were held forenoon, conducted by the or > Congregational church, Rev. Mr. Crofts. The remains were laid at restin the insti- tution cemetery. Prof. Lynchard, who has been busying himself with hunting for causes of the “red smow” found in Council Blufls, scems satistied with the explanation given by the BEg that it was the result of a spill of red min I paint. He has nothing more to say about his wonderful scien- titic discovery. There has been alittle flurry in Pacifle Junction over the saloon question, Ar- rangements were made by which the sa- loons were to be allowed ‘to run on the payment of $25 a month. Of the four saloons one paid, the other three holding out. This caused dissatisfaction, anc this has resulted in the closing up of all the saloons. s Beebe entertained the Merry ers at_her home Monday night. re were about thirty present” and the evening was ily spent. One of the leading fi res of enjoyment was an old-fashioned candy pull. There was “also music, Miss Beebe favoring the com- pany with a solo, and the Merry Think- ers joining in some rousing choruses. The young folks seemed to enjoy them- selves greatly.

Two boys named Dufly, whose father rents an Everett farm in’ Norwalk town- ship, were mrrested and brought before Justice Schurz for throwing stones at a passing train on the Rock Island. One stone struck the window of the cab of the locomotive, breaking the glass and endangering the engineer. The older boy was fined and the younger dis- charged. The lesson will” probably do both good. The legislative committee to investi- ate the institution for the de: umb, did not arrive here yesterd; the time of their coming &eems a matter of doubt. Mr. L. Weinstein, one of the trustees, arrived yesterday, and another was expected last evening. It isunder- stood that the trustees are anxious for a full and free investigation, and to have the axe hew to the line, no matter where the chips fall. Prof. Hammond scems also ready to have the fullest investiga- on. Gus Weber, a cigar maker of this city, yesterday received the sad intelligence of the death of his brother-in-law, George Lackman, at Mankato, Minnesota, Satur- day evening, by an explosion. Lackman was inspecting a barrel, and as he placed a lighted candle at the bi hole the ex- plosion oceurred.

POLICE HELPED BY CHARITY, Political Hints From a Citizen—A Woman Who is Not Nervous- A Variety of ltems Gathered in the Bluffs, Ex-Superintendent Rogers Speaks. Couvscin, BLurrs, Eeb., 6, 18%.—[To the Editor,]—TIn your issue of Februry 5 appears a letter from Edwin Booth, of Anamosa, Towa, giving what pretends to be a short history of the deaf and dumb institution at Council Bluffs, In that letter Mr. Booth takes occasion to continue a bitter warfare against me which he has been waging for the past five years. Heretofore 1 have quietly submitted to his insults because he is an old man in_ his dotage, and also because he is « deaf mute. Butin this instance “forbearance ceases to be a virtue,” for he has seen fit to make several false state- ments, and to drag me again before the public in an unpleasant and false light, I now feel that 1 owe it to the public well as to myself, to correct his state- s, and believing that I understand animous of his letter, T wish to state vlainly why it was written at just this time. First of all T wish to thank Mr admitting that [ “nossessed a e ieney.” Such a statement s A ing from that source, for I think he has never before admitted it. The next thing I notice is the statement that I was of “‘no value save as an irritant.’”’ Doos he mean by this that T attracted—drew, a sort of counter-irritant, mpliment. wlity was what made my ad thy and vigorus, fill- and bed in the house with pupils and keening them in almost perfect health, and always ready for hard_work in _the scl om and in the industrial partments, 1 look nack with gre: pleasure, in he belief that [ did everything in my pe o make the pupils feel that the institution home as well as aschool, many hapst i of the pupils so gratitude for the i \ 58 the meil« made in their stuc the Kindly it they reccived during y admini tion.

He on of Mr. Booth. For three con- secutive years ho had sought in vari ways to drive me out because he w my position, and I have always thought this conspiracy had its headquarters in Anamosa. It sometimes seemed that nothing was left undone that could add to my Burdens or make my position barrassing, and yet in order to satisfy this ambitious young man, I took him from a low grade class and promoted him over the heads of good and experienced teachers until he taught the highest and most desirable class in the institution. But all this did not satisfy him and per- haps he left Iowa because I would not resign in his favor. sought a position elsewhere and w found that he could not obtain a desirable place without any recommendation he humbled himself enough to ask forit, and received one that satisfied the board of the Philadelphia institution. In this institution they placed so high an es mate on the young man's ability that he was given a class of young girls to teach. Miss Van Tassell, the other cher who left us, saw fit during the year to marry a very nice gentleman,and Ihope has found the happiness she has so richly merited. Prof. Kennedy did not think of leaving the institution until after 1 resigned. Our friendship from the beginning was strong and has continued ~ without interruption until the present. When he saw my res- ignation in print he came dircetly to me and said, “I'am sorry, I'think you have make a mistake.” He went to” the 11li- nois institution because he was offered $600 more than we could pay him.

B. I, C Glenwood for that purpose. After at- tending to regular business I presented my resignation. The board had never intimated to me that they desired such a thing, No one on earth had been consulted in the matter but my wife and my pastor, Rev. Cyrus Hamlin, Allow meé to quote from™ the N of July 19, 188, Referring to wtion it said: This will be a surprise to the many friends of the superintendent who has been 80 quict about the matter that it had not been known before of his intention to re- sign. Heis a minister of capacity and pulpit power and no doubt contemplates returning to his chosen profession. His many friends in Council Blufls will wish him well in his future carcer. . I promised the board to do everything in my power to aid them in securing an experienced man for the place, hoping that such & man would remove the last eause for complaint and lead the institu- tion in a line of prosperity it had never known. One more thought and I will stop. “‘Intimations reach me from time to time’ that Mr. Hammond is not the man for the place.” 1s this another echo from Anamosa 1 the line of an old fam- ily ambition ¥ Does it mean that Mr Booth's candidate is yet in the field ¥ This is the first time in wy life that 1 have published a word in sélf defence, teache another year ither in writing or orally their regrets on hearing of my resigna- and it will probably be the last, but for truth's sake I have made these correc- tions, and now thank you for your kind- ness in giving me this space, A.

The attempt to raise money and aid for the poor of the city has been very suc- cessful, but e most attempts of the nd, it has not been unattended with ion, and some nse for eriticism. The mayor got his police force to go ahout in sleighs gathering up_clothing, provi- sions and cash, and quite a quantity of aid was thus obtained. The contribu- tions consisted mostly (of clothing and provisions, and the supplies were placed in the office of the chief of police until turned over to the committee to dis- tribute. Now ars that some who gave old clothing, overcoats, et claim to have recognized some of their offer- ings being worn by the police themselves. The charge ed quite a flurry among the At police headqi was a4 sort of cl meeting, in which different members of the police force re- lated their experiences, od.! The BEE man was an_interested listener. Chief Skinner said: his stufl’ was to be given away to the poor, and who in the world is any poorer than the police? It is said in the Bible, I believe, that charity commences at home. He these “things piled up here, and wl shouldn’t the boys help themselves? T didn't gef thing. [believe there was wean of mackerel, or something of that sort, that was opened here for Tanch. 1 got a taste of it, not much more than a Smell. T thought that wa boys were hungry and half frozen, and so opened up a little lunch.” Captain Walters, who is said to have secured an overcoat and one or more undercoats, declared that he had rustled around in the cold and got a lot of things together, and had distributed a number of the bundles to® needy persons, don't deny but that T ||('|])I‘I| myself to to what I wanted. Itook or t and gave it to a fellow who is working the Tarness business for his board and who needed it badly distributed several other things to persons whom I knew needed it, Let them ro f they want to. There nothing to rc jout, but that is the way always in such an aflair as an Kirk said that he had pped his overcoat for one that had been sent in. He thought his coat would do just as well for giving aw as the ond in the pile. The coat he took u better fit, but was not much better any other w: would send back his coat he up this one. It had got whispered about that some one of the police force must have given the thing aw: Suspicion had fallen on Ofticer O’Brien. He came into the room while the class meeting was in_progre He denied that he had squealed, but ad- mutted that he had said that rather than have the whole force blamed he would give away just who did take anything and how they took it. Some ¢ gested that the ainything was be fit. “That's j had found anything t neceded it, I should have taken it, you bet, and you can put that in your paper and put my name to 1t if you want.” (ll{icl‘l' Smullen then dropped in. The E ked him how much he got ity fund. ‘‘About $40,” he jocosely arked. Then as he noticed the note book pulled out he straightened up and said: *Now see here, don’t you go to mixing my name up in tl I didn’t have anything to do with it from beginning to end, and who says I did will have n o climb_my frame. won't t.” The B an concluded it st to comply with the reque: Offi wick was met on t He declared he had nothing to say about it. He was not concernedin it, got noth- ing and so long as he was clear on the record, he would let the others look after their own records. The other members of the force were not scen. Sufficient was learned to it quite apparent that some of the police force had helped themsclves to what they needed and that they justified their conduct. It is by no means likely that the public will be thus easily satis- i There a general denial that pro- oceries, ete., were taken, but othing it seems to have sorted ¢ before placed in the of the committee for distribution. a small matter when looked on in one way, but in another light is a most ser- ious one. From the ressions on the part of the chief of polis seems that that official does not intend taking any action about it. Themayor, as the real ?u‘,ml of police, y conclude to investigate the affair and mete out some punishment, but it is hardly probable. It seems that he must be impressed with the strange contrast between the initiatory month™ of his ad- ministration and the closing one. It will be remembered that when he came mto power he and his police force unirormed in broadeloth, their breasts decorated with with badges of honor, and, in accordane widely spread ad ements, i dr parade was had, the mayor and his fo marching through the vrincipal stre showing their new clothes and. steppi proudly to the music of the band.

CounciL BLures, Feb. 8.—[To the Edi- tor of the Bee]—Aladdin had a wonder- ful lamp, by rubbing which he could ob- tain whatever he wanted. The average politician seems to regard, or at least, hold the two political parties with very much the same feeling upon this modern lamp. But unfortunately the rubbing must be done according to & set formula, and this requisite formula is all right. The | aphed, dressed in_motley ar- | Such is | has recovered from his | what is pu: at the door of our future life as a ¢it We all admit the desire to do better on the part of a large migjotity of our voters, as manifested a year'ago, and we nearly all can see that we cannot build up a city upon the ruin of our pwn people, whether 0 ruined by gambling, drinking, bur- dened taxation, floods, gas monopoly, or any other way. We go together to raise money to promote manufacturing, but we cannot offer the same protection and benefits as a community as other cities can. In short, something is lacking that is detrimental to us. What is it? Why, it is a unity of action as citizens to pro- mote and foster onr welfare. It is a shameful violation of the rights of a por- tion of our law-abiding citiz It is a spent, drifting policy of city government, that has consisted of men entirely igno- rant of their sworn duties, and it is our own lack of conf gy, to raise above party tions, and go toget not as party memb but as citizens of (‘mm(‘iH Blufts and put aman like Pusey, Dr. Lawrence, or in short a strong man at the head 'of this city government.
