A picce of court piaster on his forehead and an- other on his neck, mark the places where the battle waged most fiercely. A family named Anderson, who had been attending & Danish funeral, met with an accident near the Kansas City round house. The neckyoke broke, and the team became frightened. In the plunge and run they threw the two couples out on apile of draw bars, but luckily noune of the family were hurt, except one of the ladies, and she had only a cut across her upper lip. The McGibeny family are to appear at the opera house Monday evening. ‘I'his wonderful family gave an entertainment hero a year ago, which called forth the highest rrmsc, and they may expect a crowded house to welcome them this time. Their entertainments are popular because they present a class of music which all can” appreciate, and the pro- grammes are varied. Ben De Haan, who is well known as one of the old time traveling men, hav- ing for years represented the largest clothing establishments of the east, is to open at No. 506 Broadway a large cloth- ing establishment. He will on Tuesday next start in to dispose of u stock of clothing of which he is one of the as- signees, after which he will remodel the building and continue with a fine stock of clothing, etc. ‘The old fashioned district school en- tertainment which had its origin here was recertly given two nights in Red Oak, to the delight of the people and of the church which cleared $125. The Con- regational church of this city has had the outline of the entertainment vrinted in pamphlet form for the guidance of other churches desiring to produce it. These pamphlets are being sold at$1 each, the proceeds going to the church in this city. There have been orders re- ceived from so far east as Maine, and wherever the entertainment has been prepared the linancial success has been great, There Is comxnuuvely no ex- pense in prepnrln’fi‘t e entertainment, and hence the profits are large. The Council Bluffs water works has flvun the contract to F. Ogden, the new loundry and machine man, for manufac- turing a steam engine to run the com- a)lny 8 centrifugal pump. The engine is be fifteen horse power, This is the first large order which Mr. Ogden has re- ceived since he bought the machine works here, and decided to enlarge and operate the business. The water works company in thus giving practical encour- agement to the new industry here 1s de- serving of praise, and the company sets a worthy example of getting its work done an the city in which 1t gets 1ts business. ‘Ihe company in thus encouraging home industries furthers the kindly feeling al- ready entertained for the company. Mr. Ogden will start at once on the building of the new engine. To-night Odell Bros. & Co.’s park con- cert will draw a large crowd if the weather is at all favorable. Dalbey's band furnishes the music. This band has lately been organized and has been selected as the regimental band of the Fifth lowa State Guards. Prof. Dalbey is known among musical circles through- out the country as one of the best com- posers of band music now living. His compositions are favorites with the finest bands in the country, and orders are coming even from across the waters. He will 1 ve his personal time to the train- ing of this band, and at the concert this evening & number of his compositions will be rendered. His band promises to make a fine reputaticn for itself, and plays very well now with the short time they have had for practice together.

An Ordinance Vetocd a Week After 1t was Approved—Sayings By the Wayside—The Salvation Army Celebrate Their Anniversary Not a Murderer, A telegram was received in this eity yesterday announcing that James Lee Quinn had been acquitied of the crime of murder at New Atbany, Ind, It will be remembered th: im Lee, as he was known here, was arrested by i nee of Deputy- Lee informed that he rged with the murder of Years previous. Lee w he was charged stated that he was innocent and explamned his si of the story, claiming that the man was found dead and that suspicion rested on him. He willingly returned to Indiana, accom- panied by his wife and Sherift Reel. His wife has remained in the prison during all his confinement and has showed her faithfulness throughout the entire vro ceedings. 1t is not known if Lee will r turn to this city now or not. His wife folks reside on Fourth street. While | was here he was a hack driver 4 1 he changed his name from Ja Quinn to nes Lee so that the Iudiana authorities could not find him. rrest A 1man sev: admitted that h the erime, e i “Happy on the Way.” Yesterday was o gr day with the Salvation Army here. A celebration was had of the seventh anniversary of the beginning of the organization in this country, There was a feast in the hall all of the day, da great meeting in the opera house at mght, There were a number of prominent offlcers and visitors. The chief figure was that of Marshal Booth, son of General Booth, the commander-in-chief of the forces. Marshal Booth is a very tall man, with loug full beard, and as thin as he is tall. His appearance is such as to attract the attention of all. He was accom- panied by his wife, who is a yery interesting public speaker, and fully as talented as her hus- band. Amorg the others present were: Field Seerctary Jones, Stafl Captain Burrows, who was at one time war cor- respondent of the War Cry; Staff Captain Walsh, of New York, known tot ub- lic as Billy Walsh, ot minstrel fame; Cap- tain Hale, of the uniform department: Attache Blandy, of the finance depart ment of the army; Brigade Major Evans of Chicugo: Brigade Major Dale and wife, of Des Moines; Captain Simmons and wife, ot Des Moines, and Staft’ Cap- tain Milis, of Moberly, Aspinwall, of Des A monas and wife, De.

The rapid growth of the work here has led the oflicers to look favorably upon the estab- lishing of headquarters here for the state of lowa. A move is on foot to erect here a $10,000 hall and barracks. Des Moines has been the headquarters, but that city seems a little chilly in its treatment of the army. The mayor has forbidden their parading the streets, and only al- lows them to use that portion of the street directly infrontof their hall. There is being a petition circulated there, and has already received over 200 signatures, asking that the mayor give them further privileges. Aol Drs. Hanchett & Smith, office No. 12 Pearl st. Residence, 120 Fourth st. ‘Lele- phone No 10. —— Chats on the Corner. Manager Meyer—It's strange that with all the notices given in the papers, and with the ordinary good sense with which people are supposed to be en- dowed, that there are so many cases of tampering with telegraph wires. The other day I tound there was something wrong with the district telegraph work- ing, and what do you think? I found that some carpenters, in making some improvements to some building, had found one of our wires in the way and had deliberately cutit. Of course that made us lots of trouble, and we had quite a huat to find the break. Ifit had been a firo alarm wire it would have been the same thing 1 suppose. I don’t see any way to get it into the heads of folks to let these wires alone, and if any changes are needed to notify whatever company is concerned so that they may care for it. Max Mohn—You ought to take a drive around with me these fine mornings. Every morning I get up early and take the rounds. You'd be surprisea to sce the number of new houses that are going up. They are thick. The folks who just stay up around town know very little about the way the city is growing. It's astonmishing. e Cheap storage in either small or car- load lots at Nos. 22, 24 and 26 Pearl street, J. R, Snyder, e A Queer Find. The public still remembers quite vividly the fuss which was made over an ordinance introduced by Mr. Shugart, compelling dirt haulers to use tight wagon boxes in hauling dirt over paved streets, Mr. Vaughan, who was then mayor, vetoed the ordinance with a good deal of a flourish, and the warfare was pretty sharp fora time. In hunting over old recordas, to get a new ordinance ‘bl‘inlell, the discovery is made that Vaughan signed the ordinance a week before he made his celebrated veto of 1t, and that the record shows that he vetoed an ordinance which he had already ap- proved. There seems to be no disposi- tion to enforce the ordinance, so that it matters little what shape it is in, T Bliss, 1514 Douglas street, Omaha, will have o specinl display of White bounets and hats Saturda ¥ Tne remains of Andy Davy, who was run over on Thursday night at the Broadway dummy depot, were last eve- ning brought over from St. Joseph’s hos- pital, Omaha, where Davy died about 9 o'clock yesterday morning. The remains were taken to Field & [Estep’s undertaking rooms and Coroner Faul was notified, but on ar- rival concluded an inquest was unneces- sary. He sad: “If 1 should hold an inquest the county would no doubt ob- ject to paying the bills. 1 don'tsee why the Union Pacilic insists on taking in- ured persons to Omaha when we have a ospital here.” ‘The funeral services will be held at the undertaking rooms of Field & Estep at 10 o’clock this morning.
