The members of the Thirteenth Illinois infantryare expecting a happy reunion at Rock Island on the 24. It is the twen- lf-nlxlh anniversary of the mustering of the Illinois militia out of the state service into the United States seryice. Yesterday Frank Clark, proprietor of Hotel Manawa, purchased through W. G. Galloway, representing Seavey Bro.'s manufacturing company, complete hotel cooking utensils, including ranges, ete., for hotel Manawa. he purchase amounted to a little over §900. Yesterday afternoon there was a happy gathering of young folks at the residence of Dr. Hanchett on Fourth street, the little guests being entertained by Mac Hanchott, as an observance of his eighth birthday anniversary. The gathering was a merry one, and all seemed to enjoy the occasion heartily. All the ladies who intend joining the Ladics’ Choral society (also the old mem- bers) must be present next Tuesday, May 24th, at Mueller's music hall at4:80 p. m., a8 Mr. Franko must hear all the voices before deciding upon which opera is most suitable for the society, He must also know how many solo ‘singers there are, and what the compass of the voices. The executive committee hope to see many new members, It 18 estimated that it will require about to complete the driveway around nke Manawa to the beach, and to-mor- row A. B. Walker and George Metealf will start out with a s\lbwrifihon paper for this purpose. Mr. J. J. Brown’s ser- vices have been secured gratis to super- intend the entire construction of the road and dam. It is proposed to make a good wide drive around to Manhatten beach and one that will obviate the necessity of driving through the sand. Mr. Frank Clark, who is bwilding the Hotel Manawa, has decided to grant the request of # number of interested parties and will have a hop on the main tloor of the new hotel on Wednesday evening next. ‘The hote!, although not yet under cover , no doubt, present a lively scene, a8 Mr. Clark will do allin his wer to make this, the first event at lotel Manawa, one long to be remem- bered by those so fortunate as to be in attendance. Light refreshments will be porved, ns well a8 ice cream, lemonade, gto., and the entire grounds will be lighted with calcium lights. Two Omaha carpenters were here yester- day in hot pursuit of their partner,whom they claimed to be going crooked. They 8y that in some way he got possession of about $200 of partnership money, and o certified check for nearly as much more, and then skipped. After hunting about this city they got a glimpse of him At the St. Louis house, but he noticed them and ran away. In the chase he Eroyed to be too fleet-footed, but lost his at in the run, The police then began the hunt for him, but he evidently suc- ceeded in getting beyond the city limits. Eddie Lansendorfer, a mere boy, about three weeks ago was playing about the new Catholic church, and boy like, jumped from the wall to the ground. In oing 8o, he fell, dislocating™ his wrist. The little fellow kept the fact a secret from his parents, although the wrist was badly swollen, and he suffered fienuy from it, He shrewdly managed the wrist so that it would not’ attract the attention of nis parents, and it was not noticed until yesterday. A physician wasat once summoned, and the wrist put in condition where it will have some chance for recovery from the injury. The incident recalls a similar one, which lately occurred in another family. The MY was focling with a revolver, in vio- lation of the commands of his father, and he shot himself through the hand. He went to a drug store, got the hand cared for, explained to his folks that he fell while at play and a nail run into it and kept the real fact a secret untii long r the wound was healed. Thero seems to be not such a great difference in boys after all. —_— Now For the Kicks. ‘The city board of equalization held its forty-second session yesterday, the board baving met that number of days con- secutively, except Sundays.

TO.DAY IN THE CHURCHES. Visiting Presbyterian Clergymen to Fill General Pulpits — Amuse- ment Notes—Personal and Short Stop 1tems, The Bridge Contract, T. J. Evans was yesterday smiling even more brightly than usual. *‘You can announce, if you want to, that the bridge contract is awarded to the Edge- moor Iron company, of Wilmington, Del., they being the lowest bidders, There’s no more foolishness or delays, and the bridge is now going right along. You can make that announcement, if you want to.” Of course the BEE wants to, and makes the announcement gladly, not because 1t has been in doubt as to whether the bridge would be built, but because there are even now a few doubt- ing ones, who refuse to be convinced that any great enterprises are to start as talked, One after another of the enter- prises predicted pave been questioned and doubted by this class of unbelievers. and one after another the enterprises have started just as predicted. 1t 1sgrat- ifying o see these doubters convinced in spite of themselves, and to see their num- bers dwindling down until they are now so few that they are hardly worth the men- tion. The announcement of the award- ing of the contract sped along the streets yesterday and everywhere carried joy with 1t.” It was astonishing how many there were of the “Itold you so' class. Everybody smiled, inquiries for more real estate ‘began coming in to all the oftices, and those who have property stiffened their prices a little and began figuring over prospective advances. The real estate dealers are looking for rapid and sudden advances over present prices. ‘The property has been held here so low. nml there has been so little of the fictitious values that all concede that investments cannot but be safo and B erative. Even those who have been rrtain that the bridge would be built have been planing on dealing more when the work fairly started, and now that all possibilities of any delays are removed a greater boom than ever may be expected, and one which will keep booming, Tflc work on the bridgeis tocommence within ten days and will be completed within a year. The sub contractors were notitied yesterday of the result of the award, and the preliminaries of securing material began before the sun went down. The general description of the bridge has been given before and the public is quite familiar with the general design. With the cheap and easy com- munication which this bridge will estab- lish between the two cities, the bottom lands will jump into demand for various purposes. Great changes are to he looked for within the coming twelve months and this season will see many of them, 1t seems certain now that the Union Pacific will proceed with the improve- ments contemplated and planned some time ago. It is stated that arrangements are being made for putting on at once about 200 men to proceed with the con- struction of the tracks, buildings, ete., lanned some months ago. n fact Jouncil Bluffs is having sunshine and a promise of much more. [n the manu- !nctul'inf line there is much encourage- ment. The canning works have proved so successtul that tho work of enlarging has begun and the capacity of the works are to%o mcreased 50 per cent, The purchase of the iron works by Mr. Ogden 18 being followed up by his active and personal enlargement and supervision of the business, and_with experience and capital these works will soon be amon, the leading ones in the west. The worl has commenced on the new sash, door and blind factory of Strock Bros. ‘L'hese gentlemen have in the east been success- ful in this lne and they come here en- thusiastic over the prospects of doing still better here. The handle factory is kept busy, Hattenhauer's carriage fac- tory has been enlarged, and io fact there are numerous enterprises which indicate that manufacturing interests here are on the boom. ‘[he iron and ties are on the road for the new motor line to Lake Manawa. The hotel is raised, and the boathouse and other improvements there are nearly comrlumd. n driving about the cit; one 18 surprised at the number of resi- duncesgomq up. There never has been 50 many built in any one season as have been put up thus far this year. Houses still are in demand, and it ‘is diflicult to get any desirable house to rent. In fact, Council Bluffs has many rea- sons for keeping up a regular thanksgiv- ing day. The business men seem to be having an unusually good trade. The outlook in all directions seems to grow brighter and brighter, and it seems that nothing can now stay the progress and prosperity of the city.

Last evening the Jubilee singers ap- peared at the opera house before an .en- thusiastio audience, They are certainly wonderful, and one cannot listen to their songs without being thrilled. Their rep- utation is being wonderfully sustained, and the merits of their entertainments do not seem to lessen, On Morday and Tuesday evenings the popular Irish comedians, Sheehan and Coyn, are to appear at the opera house in “Grogan’s Elevation,” and promise to give a whole evening of solid fun. On Wednesday and Thursday evenings “The Devil's Auction’ occupies the opera houre, and the assurance is given that the spectacular will be presented with more pleasing effects than ever before in this city. The company if a large one, and the mechanism is very elaborate. ‘Those who remember inf & Frank- lin's tent shows last year will be glad to know that they are to appear again here May 26 and 27, There are many new at- tractions. Last season they gave the fi:en?est show for a dime ever given in this city, and this season they promise to do still’ better by the public.” The publio will be satisfied if they give as pleasin; entertainments as last year, and their tents will surely be crowded at every performance, B The Mueller Music Co. has the largest and best assortment of Baby Cuarriages, Wagons, Velocipedes and Bicycles in the city.

One Square North of the P. O. Bu ilding. Treatment and Baths Given Ladies by Mrs. Dr. Richards on Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday. Electricity 1s a remarkable naturalagent which has long been known and as a remedy for disease and continued experience has enlarged its sphere of useful- ness and improved its appliances by which it is employed until its utility and virtue has become second to no other known remedy, in the treatment of certain forms of disease. This agent is employed here in all its most serviceable forms by the aid of large batteries, static machines, electric cabinet baths, electric water baths, the elec- tric chair and electrodes for treating all parts of the body, We are prepared to do all that can be done with these great remedies. In cases of Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Paralysis, Spinal Irritation, Rectal Discases, Nervous Diseaces in females arising from Uterine disorders and many other chronic and subacute troubles, it stands at the head of all known remedies or methods cure. A thorough study of it for years and the successful treatment of hundreds of cases, after all other remedies had fail- ed, is sufficient evidence of its great worth and perfectly satisfies us with its good effccts on the diseased body. In the great hospitals and sanitarians of America and Europe, electricity is leading all other methods of treatment. In all leading colleges the professors are teaching electricity as one of the potent r special chair is appointed in manv of them. Many of the ablest ph schools are making a specialty of electri to the exclusion of alm else. This great remedy has often fallen into disrepute by being recommended an used by persons, and physicians, perfectly ignorant of its properties and powers, who would as often advise and use the wrong current as the right one or depend upon it in discascs for which it is not adopted. We are sure that when the people become educated in the use of electricity for many diseases with which the body 1s afllicted and find the great good therein, the medicines and patent righted nos- trums upon which they now rely will grow old and dusty on the shelves, Electricity is nature's great remedy &nd to fully understand and skilfully apply it is our effort and aim in life, For further information call at the office or send for de- scriptive and illustrated pamphlet on Electricity and Electro Therapeutic Baths, by DR. RICHARDS, 607 Mynster Street, Council Bluffs, Ia.
