His purpose there is not evident. 1t does not look very encouraging for the scheme to have all the barber shops closed on Sunday. A few object, and a few can thus preventothers, competition being a great lever in forcing open doors. The brick work on the ground floor of Taylor & Calef’s®building is in such a bad condition that they found it nece: sary last ni 0 put ropes across t sidewalk for fear the front might fall out and injure sowe one. i A hydrant on Glen avenue near Mr. * Gerner's residence was broken _yester- day, but little trouble caused. Luckily - this is the only broken hydrantin the city, and it is the very one which the city has been desiring to have moved, there being one near there, and a hydrant being needed more in other places. At the meeting of the city council last evening the awarding of the contract for building the levee was laid over until to- might, and the paving of Brondway to the river will not come up betore this body until next week. The nightly sessions of & the council will enable them to clear up most all-of the business before the new ‘c’nuncu comes in a week from next Mon- ay. The Nonpareil yesterday morning came out with twelve pages, the space being hiberally used 1n presenting facts and fig- k ures concerning the boom. The real . estate men ize that 1t doesn't do to hide their light under a bushel. The city has a boom, and the next best move is to let other folks know it. The edition yo terday was u helpful one in advertisi the city, and thq real estute men wisely distributed a large number of the papers in the east. e Contractors and builders will find 1t to their interest to get prices on lime cement, plaster, hair, etc., from Council Bluffs Fuel Company, 539 Broadway.

The Bluffs Eager For Its Spring Cleaning and More Attractive Appearance. YOUNG WHIPPLE FOUND GUILTY, The River Breaks Up Nicely—How a Funny Man Snubs the Bluffa— Boatmen Preparing For Summer Sport. Improving Appearances, 7 "% The business men along Pearl street, seeing no immediate prospect of the city cleaning up that thoroughfare, began doing the work themselves. That por- tion of the street in front of each place was seraped and swept by the ocenpants, and the dirt thus piled up was carted away by thecity teams. The cleaning up makes a_great change for the better. In some cities the c of Vi streets is thus done every day being set by common consent, on which day the private ci ns clean up in front of their own places, and the city carts take the piles away., There should some regular system for street cle: ing, for there is no adver nent wh speaks more for a city than clean streets. “Wly don’t you punch the folks up about making a better showing of the stores?”’ asked one citizen yesteraay. “You have no idea what a difference it makes in trade. I've tried it both ways. Strangers, particularly, when y strike a city notice right off whether tores look s‘w-py and dull or whether ooks brisk. If tradesmen only realized how much difl they would alway: dows Kept cley their displa “1 tell yo town than anoth for a spoke up ) hat's those cloth signs. }l ust as 1f the people themselves did pect to remain here permanently, and that they do not think the town 1s going to keep up its boom. Instead of spending money advertising the advant- ages of the city, a little of the money might be put into permanent signs. | don’t like these cloth signs, especially when there are so many of them. Strang- ers notice them very quickly, and I have heard ever so many 8peak about them. Of course there was such a rush when the boom struck so suddenly that it was impossible to get signs made fast enough, Now it seems that they ean be gradually replaced by permanent signs, It doesn’t help a city to have somany places look as if they were fitted up just tempo- rarily, just as if the folks who are talking boom 50 earnestly really wanted to bein shape to quit at & moment’s notice. 1t gives a bad impression.” What to do with ashes, many. rse giveaw windows,” 1t's a puzzle to “This city has never had any reg- ular a gements for garbage and ashes. There are ordinances enough, but not enough swill carts, 1t does not do much y to cart such stuff oft in an What is needed ngement, B arl should have in the rear of his “store house a place to deposit this stuf, and then there should be carts going the ¢ taking it away. Thi yto follow the old way of throwing slop, swill, ashes and rubbis into the alley all during the winter, and then in the $pring have it all hauled away. Another move already started tor bet- tering the appearance of the cityis the lighting of streets with electric lights. It is proposed to havea light hung in the for some of these companies to come here for the ovening only, gather up what good money they can get, and take pains | not to leave a dollur of it in the city. There are several hotels in this city which certainly furnish as good accom- modations as those to which these travel. ing companies are accustomed, and it seems that the public should be informed asto the way such companies purpose using the Blufls before they are given a chance to get the money for which they are all so eager. — For acre property, residence: ness property call on W.

A few days ago three fellows were here running a striking machine, which was vronounced » swindle, The customer was supposed to strike, and if the indi- cator rested on a lucky number he took s prize. So few struck lucky numbers, and so few prizes were drawn, that suspicion was directed to the outfit. The cappers seemed to have no difliculty in getting prizes, and when the trio were arrested, and the machine taken to the city build- ing, it was investigated. It appeared that the man running the machine could, by a simple twist of the hand, cause the indicator to rest in notches opposite prize numbers, snd when not so ar- ranged every number possible to get was onlya blank. The machine has mfi'stcrb ously disappeared from the city building. The' officers chanced to be all out for a few minutes, and on_their return the machine was gone. It was. afterwards learncd that the machine was slyl dragged into the cell rooms by a hool and there broken up and put m the sewer, The cases of the men are held under advisement by Judge Aylesworth.

Timid Des Moines, The Salvation Army and others have been watching with somo interest to see how the authorities of Des Moines would decide in regard to street parades there. Here, when the army first appeared, it was proposed to have them arrested, but as their work was more closely watched it appeared that they were doing much more good than harm, so they were al- lowed to go shead with their peculiar marches and singing. In Des Moines Major Dale, who commands the’ lown division, was arrested in company with several others of the army for parading the streets. They have been petitioning the authorities to have the same rights in Des Moines which they have in Council Bluffs. After duly cansiuumE the re- quest Mayor Phillips has sent the follow- inr messige to Major Dale: have considered your lp&vllt‘.l"on on file and in reply will say that have positive convictions on the subject adverse to grant- ing it In any form.

Reed and others stopped in Omaha, and when Mr. Dohany telephoned them Reed replied that he would be over on last evening's dummy train, and would return to Omaba on the late train. When asked if he expected Council Bluffs people to patronize his show when he was so un- willing to patronize Council Blufts hotels he is said to have answered that he didn't care what they did. Reed isnot the only one who has thus treated Council Blufls. It is getting to be quite a- common thing is by no means unknown among musical people, he has been in Chieago, and early developed great talent as a pianist, made a few pub appearances at the concert of the I 1 society of that city, and then went to Europe to study.

Essipoft, took great terest in fitting her for the brilliant future which he predicted for his talented American pupil. = - Substantial abstracts of titles and real loans. J. W. & E. L. Squire.

A lighted match had been dropped on the floor, in the rear part of the house, where a can of gasoline was stored, and the flames spread to some of the flmid which had leaked out.

The saloon injunction cases came up before Judge Thornell yesterday after- noon, Onthe part of the defendants a motion was filed asking for a final hear- ing, mstead of the temporary writ asked for. This was overruled. A motion was also filed asking that the witnesses for the state, the two informers, be again produced in court, but this was overruled.
