Those who prefer can have him furnish the suits complete, but he pro- poses to sell the cloth, or do ecutting, or urnish trimmings, as the customer may prefer. Among the special objects of attention yesterday was a wagon, the white cover- ng of which was covered with sharp tnrusts and muddy flings at some of the democratic candidates. The chairman of the republican committee publicly offers to disprove the statement that this irrita- ting wagon was in any way a street parade devised or encouraged by the re- publican managers of the campaign. [t seems more than probable that it was an outgrowth of n well known fecling which has sprung up in the democratic camp against some democrats who succeeded in gobbling up nominations by processes which even among democrats were de- nounced as unfair and tricky. The Congrogationalists, with the as- sistance of others, are planning to give a most enjoynble and unique entertainment hero on the 18th of this month. Itwill be a representation of an old-fashioned dis- trict school, the pupils in which will be among the best known ladies and gentle- men of the city. For these participants in the novel entertainment to carr: nmn- selves ahd their audience back tothe when they were school boys and g\rls will make an evening of peculiar enjoy- ment. The dotails of the programme will be made known in due time, but from the outlines of what it is to be, it is evident that the entertainment will be a rich one, full of merriment, variety aud music. The district telegraph boys were y terday distributing political handbills which seem to strike very hard some of th idates and their friends.

On the oth hand Colonel Keatley and his friends were confident that Im would be eleated by several hundred. They elaimed the city by 500, and the county by as much more.” That Council Blufts would go demorratic was a foregone conclusion, but the majority was variously estimated from 300 upwards, in most cases up- wards. The democratic township ticket was so badly slashed and battered that several of the candidates gave up hope early in the evening. There was much local fecling on township oflices, and each candidate made a personal fight for himself regardless of how the other town- ship candidates got along. WILL HAVE THE BRIDGE. The vote on the questi 12 mill tax, of ahout construction of u wagon and street car idge, was largely in favor of the enter- e.

McMi of the transfer, while at his home, corner of Third avenue and Ninth street, noticed three men standing near there, and his long experience led him to conclude by their actions that a confidence trick was being turned. He noticed one of the trio hand a check to an old man in the party, and the old man give some money in re- turn. Officer McMillan satisfied at this move, that his suspicions were cor rect, and he jumped over the fence to nab the men. On secing this sudden move the man who had r ed the money quickly handed it back to the vie- tim, and took back the check. The two sharpers then started to run, going mn different directions. The ofli could not run in two directions at once very well, so he concluded to follow the one who seemed to be the chief actor, gave the young man a hively » - ing him to stop or he would shoot, but there was no stop. While the chase was being kept up the street-car came along, and one of the passengers, who had a re- volver, fired three times crook, and as the np handed him the revolve to continue the shooting. Millan succeeded, however, in b off the fellow and arresting him w! shooting. On being taken to the station and searched, the young man gave evi- dence of being a thorough crook. He had upon him two fine revolvers, a numbe of burglar tools, and a pair of nipper for turning door , oue of the best ever scen by the oflicers, The old man, who so barely saved his maney, gave his name as Elias Lower He was traveling with his wife frons home in Columbia county, 0., to visit friends in Ida Grove, In. He came in on the early Kansas City train. The young man who was eaptured came in on the same train, and they got quite friendly and well acquainted, On reuching this city his young friend suggested that they had a little time on their hands, and they had better walk out and get a little fresh air, During the walk a third party came up and asked his young friend for some freight or express charges—the old story. The vietim was just accommo- dating him with a temporary loan of §15, when the oflicer spoiled the game. Mr. Lower was very anxious to proceed on his journey, as his Lrother-in-law, August Roush, of Ida Grove, was expecting him, but the oflicers concluded to hold him and get his evidence before letting him go on his journey. oflicer of tities and real E.

Men could go up and vote without having their rs and button-holes pulled at to the minute.

The request was not acted upon, and there the matter r It looks as if there was to be trouble over this contract, and that the question would only be se! t d by litigation. It is one of the most important matters now pending before the council, and yet one in which the people generally seem to take little inter- est, because, probably, it_has been rest- ing for about two vears. The completion of the work so far as both are agreed now being reached, the question can hardly drag along much more, but will have to be determined soon one way or another. = Great (“Inilnz Out Sale of silver plated ware to make room for our.
