It is called » chime whistle, ana is said to whistle louder, sweeter, and to whistle more tunes than anything of the kind ever introduced here. The Pilcher electric light company yesterday filed for record’ amendments to the original articles of incorporation. The chief change is the adding of the word ‘‘poer” so as to enable the com- pany to furnish electric power as well as electric light. In the district court the Wilson case still has the time, and it will probably odcupy the larger portion of to-day. ‘The defense is now having its say, and the witnesses are being hurried along somewhat speedier than before. The articles of incorporation of the Council Bluffs club were filed yesterday. The organization being completed, the me.nbers are now payi in their dues, and the work of furnishing and fitting the rooms will go right along. Permit to wed was yesterday given Charles A.

The board of equalization is going through the assessor's bouks as rapidly as possible. They have got to *'P,'" and are taking the list alphabetically, Much of the work is being done by committees, who report to the board as a whole. There are marty who are having their as- sessments raised. Mr. Stout, the new owner of the Ogden house \ property, is expected to return from Texas to-night.” It is expected that before leaving the city again he will make the proposed improvements in the Ugden house, putting in an elevator, lay- ing tile floors, etc. Itis his intention to put the hotel in first-class shape every [, 1. Guanella, WAy, 1t is reported that two young men, Ed Kessel and Harry King, " who have for some time past been pedd]mF rugs about the city have skipped town leaving sev- eral creditors. It appears that in one instance at least, they collected two dol- Jars and failed to deliver the goods and it is more than probable that there are other victims about the city. They have been ahsent from their place of business, No. 124 Broadway, for several days. A little more lirht is thrown upon the {act that some of the nverfrusnu latel planted at Fairmount park were pulle up. and afterwards hastily replanted. Stockman says he saw some boys pulling nvl these young trees last Satur- day, and he made them plant them again. 1f the young offenders could be made to suffer a little it might be a lesson, not only to them, but a warning to others who are so reckless and wanton in their doings in the parks. The case of Kirscht & Co. vs Gray has been dngfilnz along in the courts for months, The plaintiff filed a pe- tition in Justice Barnett's court for an _attachment to secure claim of $14. The writ was issued, and a number of horses and other prop- erty were attached. It 18 cluimed that about §350 worth of stock was seized to secure this claim of $14, and since then the case has come up in the courts sev- eral times to get portions of the property roleased. Now the case comes before Judge Aylesworth on a writ of error, the chief point in which is the claim that Gray is not a resident of this county, but lives in Harrison. The case has been submitted, but no decision rendered. 1 he costs which have accumulated now amount to considerable more than the amount of the original claim. ‘Squire Bi has been having an in- teresting civil case in his court. terest was maintained more by the ill- feeling as shown between some of those licipating in the trial than the ques- lons involved. The case was that of Sheafe vs. Pat McNeill, a brakeman on the Union Pacific. The origina) claim was for house rent, and Sheafe garni- sheed. There were counter claims, but # Judgment was rendered against the de- fendant. McNeill became 80 abusive in his talk to one of the attorneys that the Intter nnnenled to the court for protec- tion, y the aid of the constable, who threateningly waved his cane, order was restored and the case went on, but there were frequent outbreaks after- wards. 'The feeling exhibited made the trial an interesting one to lookers-on. Personal Paragraphs.

Caught Beneath a Pile of Brick—A Slaughter House Accident— Personal Mention—A Plucky Woman, The Sewer Contract. The city council met again last night. Present, Mayor Groneweg and all the aldermen, The committee on streets and alleys reported in fayor of awarding the con- tract on sewers to W Wightman as the lowest bidder, Alderman Lacy, of that committee, made a minority and adverse report. He thought that the advertisement was not sufliciently explicit, and the bidders did not understand it fully, He wus in favor of rejecting all bids and readver- tising the work. On the surface of the bids it seemed that Mr. Wightman's bid was the lowest, but it not complete envugh, and by certain constructions it might not prove the lowest. There was considerable discussion about technicul differences 1 the bids but Alderman Lacy scemed to stand alone. When the test vote was taken the majority revort was adopted, thus giving the much discussed sewer contract to Mr. Wightman, Mr. George Miller is inter- ested with him in the contract. Alderman Keller moved the fire de- partment be permitted to take one of the Stean to Sioux City at the tourna- nt there. Adopted. The sam rman reported that the fire alarm m wus complete except one matt The line should be extended to the waterworks, so as to give an alarm there the same time asat the en- gine houses. Some hydrants needed a direet pressure at once in case of fire, It would cost $75to run the line, and Harry Birkinbine proposed to putin n gong at his own expense. No action was taken. Alderman Lacy inquired why the new fire alarm systeni was not finally tested. Alderman Keller started to explain that the superintendent of the company, Mr. McCullough, was busy at anhther place. The mayor sugg little time to spe matter. Alderman Keller made, however, the explanation that it was just as well, in fact better for the city to put off the date ol'(ostin[.i‘ns long as possible. 1t was costing the eity nothing to use tlre sys- tem, and an excellent chance was being given to test it. 1f it was formally tested :d that there was i discussing this the city would sixty days there- atter have to pay $500, and would then be bound to make the additional payments as they came due. The company was giving the city an _excellent chance to try the systen and the city was risking nothing by tl delay in setting a time for a formal test. The aldermon got to discussing other matters, but Alderman Wells reminded them that the meeting was for the special purpose of considering the sewer bids, and that being accomplished they should adjourn. Adjournment was then taken until next Monday evening. The rest of the uvunlnf was spent as a board of equalization in looking over the assessor’s book. e e The Deaf and mb, The closing exercises of the institution forthedeaf and dumb are always of a very interesting nature. This year they occur on June 8. Heretofore the exer- cises have been held in the chapel of the institution, which is at such a distance from the center of the city as to make it inconvenient for many to attend, who would otherwise gladly have done so. This year it is proposed to have the exer- cises at the opera house, and to charge some nominal admittance, enough to meet the expenses merely. If this can be so arranged 1t will prove a great ac- commodation to the citizens, and they will gladly avail themselves of the oppor- tunity of witnessing this most interesting of exhibitions. Many even in _this city have faint 1deas of the work being done at the institution, of the manner of in- struction, and the wonderful results at- tained. This will givesuch a convenient chance to learn and see much. It will also awaken more of a local interest in the institution. et Office of Mulholland & Co., removed to in under the Citizens’ bank.

Yesterday afternoon one of these jokers stooddooking at the wonderful display of fishing tackle at Brackett's, No. 238 Broadway. He remarked, “Well, Brackett, that's quite a catching dis- play.” No one seemed to hook onto the the point of the pun, and the poor fellow looked heartbroken as he sauntered away. The display is indeed a catching one, without any joking. Brackett un- derstands making displays which will catch the eyes of passers by, but this time he has fairly outdone himself. He has an endless variety of fishing tackle, but the most novel attraction is the arrangement of fish poles, there being a hundred or more in the combination, and hardly two alike. It looks like a stock of atself, but Brackett calls them only samples of his stock, The BEkman's in- quisitiveness led him to ask prices, and he found they ranged from 25 cents to $20. Anybody but a reporter could easily select one to suit both purse and fancy, out of this variety, but there being none less than a quarter, the news- gatherer concluded to move on. et Gold Watches and Chains.

At the stockyards yesterday was a plucky,independent gpecimen of woman, | who was en route for Colorado with some stock which she was taking to her ranch. She evidently understood her business thoroughly, and, although per- forming duties which are generally left for stronger and more masculine hands, she seemed to lose none of her womanli- ness, She was going through with the stock, caring for all of their needs, ard she attracted much attention as she ex- ercised one of the horses in the yards yesterday, e, Attention, Sir Knights, 8ir_Kunights of Ivanhoe Commandery No. 17 can find horse covers for Ascen- sion Day services at Charles Duquette's store on Pearl strect.

London Times: From the village of Obodny, in the government of Podolia,in Russia a peasant, reputea to be very wealthy and to have money hoarded in his house, received a visit lately trom three venerable looking men, dressed in garments of a somewhat clerical fashion, who informed him that they were Christ and the apostles Peter and Paul. The sham Christ said to him: *‘I have given you great wealth, but you have omitted to excreise charity, so I have come to reckon with you. Give me your money.”’ The territicd peasant feil on his knees, begged for mercy, and gave over 500 silver rubles, declaring it was all the money he had in the house. They were not satisfied, and sent off his ser- vants to collect money from the neigh- bors who were indebted to him. ‘The re- port of the presence in the village of suc:l holy visitors brought a crowd to the spot. lBut the impostures mistook their mo- tives, and believed they had come to ap- perhend them. One of them drew a knife rom under his clothes and attacked a peasant, whereupon the crowd seemed to have become at once enlightened as to the true character of the trio, and, tak- courage, overpowered them, LT If your kidneys are inactive you will feel and look wretched, even in the most cheerful society, and melancholly on the jolliest oceasions.

Cooke, in The American Magazine: It would be impessible for me to relate all of the remarkable incidents which occurred among our friends and neighbors. A feeble old lady, living op- posite our house, was seated in her arm- chair when a soldier entered and set fire to a work-basket near her. It was ex- tinguished by her grandson and again kindied. She mus have perished in the flames but for the timely arrival of her son, whose own beautiful home was burn- ing. He carried her out, and, plncinfi her in a carriage, got into the shafts an drew it out of town, Another aged couple were detained by the soldiers in their house until too late to escape by the street, and they were forced to sit in the rear yard until the surrounding buildings were consumed. A minister, intent on saying his barrel of sermons, hearing of an invalid lady next door,who was alone, abandoned his precious load to the flames and just had time to rescue her. I've always considered that little act of self- denial as good & sermon as any lost in the barrel.
