THE SUNDAY BEE: . COUNCIL BLUFFS OFFICE, NU. 12, PEARL STREET. — Delivered by earrier in nny part of tho city at twenty cents per weok. H.W.Tiotoy, - - TELEPHONES: a8 Orrice, No. 4 1amT Epitor No. 28, e Managee, e ———— MINOR MENTION, N. Y.Plumbing Co. New spring goods atRelter's, tailor. The city council meets to-morrow evening. Woodbine, Towa, is preparing to have a “deestrict skule' entertainment. Alderman Keller has geuerously donated to the Fifth regiment band twenty chairs to be used in their room. Those who have been complaining the most bitterly about the want of rain are among the tirst to complain that there is too much. ¥ Petitions for eleven attachment suits have been begun 1n the district court ainst James Niman, the recent lessee of the Ogden house. The tendency to make Pearl street an alley for the stores fronting on Main street also, is again appearing. The marshal should help stop” the nuisance, if those more interested do not have enough pride in the matter to stop it of their own accord. Justice Barnett will on Monday decide the motion to dismiss the case against Burdick for selling mortgaged property. One of the important questions 1nvolyed 18 concerning the venue. It is claimed that it is no offense for a man, who has given a mortgage on his team, to drive the team beyond the county lines. ‘The only penalty is that that the man holding the mortgage can foreclose. It is claimed that Burdick drove out of the county in- nocently, having no intention to dispose of the horses. Afterwards he got into some trouble, and while in another county gave up the team to another party. It is insisted that there is no evi- dence that he formed any intent in this county to dispose of the property, and that if he did this in another county, he should be tried in that couhty, and not in this. The attorneys are splitting some fine hairs trying to settle the case. . The sherif has concluded the inventory of the furniture of the Ogden house, and will the first of the week take the furni- ture out of the hotel. He is to retain possession of it until the court orders otherwise. It is understood that so soon as the litigation is over the furniture and n be got into proper shape, or of the building, Mr, Stout,who is % gentleman of means and pluck, will proceed to make improvements and will cause the house to be reopened in a man- ner which will cause it to be the pride of the city. Others claim that as the lease does not expire until August 1, 1888, he eannot assume control of the building so long as he insists on the payment of the rent up to the expiration of the lease. The fecling is general that the Ogden will be speedily reopened, and that all things will work together for the good of the city, as well as those concerned. £ Services and Sermons. The following announcements are made concerning the several churches of the city.

The three members from the east part of the county have been quite anx- fous to locate tho farm near Neola, while the two others have preferred to have a farm near Council Bluffs. There were . many reasons why the farm should be " be located near here, but the majority of the board was against it, and hence the “fl:hm was made. The farm thus ught is known as the Leonard place, consisting of 160 acres, and the price paid #83 an acre. Possession cannotbe had until next March, unless some arrange- ment is made with the man who has leased it. The old poor farm was sold by the county for about tem thousand dollars. Supervisors Underwood and Waite were chosen as a committee to sectionmize the old channel of the Bo{er in Crescent township, and have the old bed ot Honey k lake and other lands surveyed. . * The board after the transaction of some . other routine business adjourned. - — -—— ' _ Take Notice—At the Bankrupt store on Monday gauze shirts will be sold for l14c #nd lawn ties 30c per dozen. st e A Cheeky Performance. .

Mr. Reed has ~_an inexhaustable lnpg}lg of fun and ities. Those who enjoy hearty uld be out in full force Tues- Bhoving the Queer. Last night a man giving his name as Rugger Sittimore, was arrested for pass- ing counterfeit silver dollars on Main street. His method was to enter a store and ask for a 5-cent cigar and lay down a silver dollar. After visiting the candy and cigar store at No. 104 Main street he went iuto Shepurd’s drug store and then to MecAtee's grocer At McAtee's they discovered t money to be counterfeit and John Mul- queen, who is a clerk there, went in gearch of the man. He found him m Throll & Kracht's grocery, corner of Seventh avenue, and held him until the arrival of the police. On reaching the jail nearly %3 in change was found upon the prisoner be- sides a couple of counterfeit dollars. He is apparently an Italian. The milling and date, 1886, of the coin are blurred, the rest of the die being well defined. It has an oily feeling, rings well, and is very liable to dececive, al- though of light weight, He claims he had a $5 bill, and a conductor of a street car gave him these dollars in change. The Jones Case. Judge Carson listened patiently yester- day to lengthy arguments on the motion for a new trial in the case of Jonathan Jones. The case is taken under advise- ment. Colonel Scott, of Omaha, appeared for Jones, and made one of his telling speeches, covering the dry bones of logic and law with reddy, pleasing, healthy flesh. He is one of the few men that can arguc amotion before a court in so inter- estin, a muanner as to cause outsiders to wait to hear him through, and yet not weaken his argument by a waste of rhetoric or flourishes, One of the grounds on which the motion for a new trial is based, is that of newly discov- cred evidence. Jones' attorneys claim that on account of the mental imbecility of Jones, they were able to get few sug- gustions aad little information from him. They now learn t his father, now dead, vas insane for fi ars before his death, that a cousin b Ina new u a jury, the m of insanity might be viewed entirely different., —~— Another Warrant The two saloon informers arc promised a warm veception when® they reach this side of the niver, if they ever do come across. The habeas corpus proceedings have not been decided in the Omaha court, but a decision is expected the first part of the week. Both prohibitionists and saloonists here are preparing for the event of their release v Omanha. It seems that the saloon men have pianned to have them arrested on a charge the moment they step upon Iowa seil. There 1s an information filed in 'Squire Bigg's court, charging the pair with perjury. On the other hand, the prohibitionists are preparing to keep possession of this precious pair, if they can get hold of them again. They have caused an in- formation to be filed in Justice Barnett's court, charging them with carrying concealed weapons. 1t 18 conjectured that the two informers prefer to be in the hands of the prohibitionists, rather than to fall into the hands of the saloon men. It is a question whieh warrant will be served served first, when the two inform- ers step upon this side of the river again. On the part of the saloonists it is under- stood that an ofticer will e in readiness to arrest them the moment they step oft the tramm at the transfer. The plan of the other party seems to be to huve an oflicer right with them, and the moment they pass the state line, on the train, the warrant from Judge Barnett’s court is to be served, and they will be held on that charge at least until they can have an opportunity of giving their evidence 1 the cases which are set for the 13th. With a warrant to hold them it is ex- pected that the informers will not be in condition to be frightcned away by the threatened prosecution for perjury. As another move to hold the men and bring them to this side, or to get them out of the clutches which retain them in Nebraska, an information has been filed, and & warrant placed in the hands of the sheriff at Omaha, charging them with being fugitives from justice. ‘The contest over thesa two men seems to be narrowed down to about this. The saloon men want to keep theti) in Nebraska, and pre- vent their coming to this city, while th prohibitionists are oq\mll{ anxious to ge them out of Nebraska. 1f they come over here the saloon men are prepared to pinch them here, huving several charges ready on which to prosecute them, The attorneys for the parties concerned arec at present having their con- test 1n the Omaha courts, where the cases have bccn‘fxcndinz for a week or more. Itis said that the saloon men have a large number of chm‘fus to bring against them in Omaha, and they pro- pose to keep them there on the gridiron as lov:P as gossibln. At the same time, if the{l 0 not succeed, and the men come to this side, then the prosecutions here begin, The saloon men feel pretty well £al ffied &&M the worth ({f the testimony of these w8 mefl 18 pretty well shattered, and they point with satisfaction to the fact that the prohibitionists brand the two witnesses as fugitives from justice. On the other hand the prohibitionists claim that if the saloon men are so cei- tain that these two men will not be be- lieved in court, they should not be afraid to have them come over here and appear !l:c(o&' the judge who has the cases in and. R A Prohibitionist’'s Troubles. Another sensation is cansed in the war upon the saloons. M. R. Swmith, a well to do farmer living near LeMars, has been enthusiastic in the cause of prohibition, and has employed men to visit saloons ather information by buying drinks. Lately he has been personally at work in this county. A number of cases have been brought against saloons in this county. The two Oakland justices seem to be having most of the cases, and are reuping a harvest of fees. Fifteen cases were brought against & man named Meggers, of Avoca, who claams to run a temperance billiard hall. Smith was the only witness against him, and swore that he drank beer in his place. Meggers claimed that it was mineral water, and other witnesses testitied that they had tried to get beer there but couldn’t. Attorney Converse appeared as he claimed in behalf of Colonel Daily, the county attorney, and prosecuted the ease. Fremont Benjamin was the attorney for the defendant. Meggers was convicted by a ]n;rz and fined $100, from which he appealed. ‘esterday Smith came to Avoca, and was at once arrested on the charge of having perjured himself in the trial at ().tlnml, Meggers filing the informa- tion. Smith waived examination, and was ':m under $1,000 bonds. The oflicers rou;}m him to this eity and lodged him in jail. A bond was approved last even ing, and as Smith was released from ]nfi Deputy Sheriff O'Neill served anoth- or warrant on him for assault and battery and again locked him up. The warrant was issued b{lnn Avoen justice, It lgems Saturday night the deputy sheriffinsiste that he could not take him out to Avoca until Monday. and that in the mean time he would have to remain in jail. It hike a well laid scheme to give smell of the jail into which he is zealously pushing othel ‘The treatment of Smith aroused t indignation among the prohibitionists, and they has- u?od toget bonds arranged for Smth's release. As a mde show of the Smith sffair ‘another case hasstartedup.

W, Tulleys, Henry DeLonf, A. Overton, O. O. St, John, C. M. Smith, H. ' Kelley. The county attorney, Colonel Daily Attorneys Zink and ‘Sims, and the BEE reporter completed the company. The bond of Smil[’l was fixed by Judge Car- son at £300, 'This bond was" given, signed by Colonel Tulleys and Henry De Long, and Mr. Smith once inore breathed the free air. —_————— Another New Church. The contract for the new German Cath- olic church is to be let to-morrow. The building is to be 47x106 fect, of brick, and of Gothie architecture. The church, while not one of the largest, will be one of the handsomest in the city. The location is on the corner ot Pierce and Bluff' streets, the ground having a frontage of 125 feet on each street. The property was bought of Capt. L. Kirscht, who sold the society the lots for $1,100 each, and donated one- half lot, there being two and a half lots in the piece. It is expected that the church will be ready for occupancy by Christmas. The ladies of the church have the honor of being the originators of this enterpris d its success will be due largely to their efforts. A long time ago they began giving sod s,and 11 other ways securing small sums of money, the startseeming to be an almost hopelessone, but yet the fuith of the women, with her true devotion, never gred during all the discouragements. From these littles a fund of about eight hundred dolls was raised. When Bishop Cosg here to lay the corner stone of the new St. Xavier's church, separation was made between the two nationalities, and the German Catholie church was organ- 1zed. Father Wesseling has been cailed here as pastor. He has been occupying the chair of Greek and literature in the St. Benediet's college in Atchison, § He has heen here but little over a month, but rapid progress has been made. The bishop donated %5,000 from the proceeds of the sale of the tholie property here, provided the members would equal amount for the building. ther been secured from s 3 families of the church §4,000, and there scems no reason why the work cannot be pushed forward to a speedy and sue- cesstul completion lies are quite entht and are giving gener , and others will help them gladly in securing this new place of wor- ship, which will be of public benefit. There is much praise to be given to the ladies, who when othe w 10 hope per- so nobly in their efforts to get the not the first instance in the b of the city, in which the women v originators of worthy enterprises who know the history of the beautiful St. Paul’s church, in which the city takes such pride, need not be told that if it had not been for the wo of women, their devotion and faith, that elegant house of worship would not now be standing.
