A sumptuous repast was spread, after which the evening was speut in delightful social converse. The couple were born and raised in Council Bluffs, and will still make this their home. There was a large gathering of relatives and friends both from the cily and from a distance. The bride was the recipient of numerous presents.

THE NEW REVOLVING JALL, | Oue Good Turn May Deserve Another, But It Won't Work, THE BALOON CASES. A Continnance For a Month—A Phe- nomenal Blind Pianist—The Gas Company's Modest Request Will Be Kefused. A Trick That Can't Be Turned. The Bee several times called atten- tion to the new county juil and the dis- satisfaction which has been felt concern- ingit. It seemed to be a pretty good a to have the cell rooms in the form of a cylinder, revolving sily, so that one entrance might answer for all the cells. Theory and practice prove to vary. Whatever the theory may have been, it is now pretty well demonstrased that the revolving part of the juil is bordering upon a failure, Yesterday two men, by applying their utmost muscular ability, 8U eded in turning the great eylinder 50 that the prisoners could be let out into the corridors. The oflicers hardly dared to lock the men up again in the cells lest they could not be revolved out again. It seems that the revolving part has been growing worse and worse, the cogs slipping and sticking and the cylin- der turning harder and harder, It would be n startling situation if the men should be in the cells when the great eylinder Stops never to go in, for it would be no little trouble to get them out of this huge bird eage with no door for exit. It secms that the only chance now remain- ing 1s for the manufacturers to come on here and fix the jail €o that it will swing around the cirele. Perhaps they can do but if not, what will the county do? situation is getting serious and nge will have to be made at 3 troubles have been growing and worse, until now it is abso- ary that a radieal change be S hat the troubles will be obvi- ated, or the rotary plan abandoned, AL There will sparring over the liquor day morning Judge Carson continue the hearing of the injunction cases until July 25. This will suit the sa- loon men, and is looked upon by them as avictory. The cause of delay is the dif- ficulty in getting the two chief witnesses out of jail n Omaha, and bringing them to this stde, the defendants insisting that they should have a rigktto cross examine these men concerning the facts set forth in their aflidavits. There scems no im- mediate prospect of these men being re leased, and so the cases have gone over until the date named. This will permit the judge to attend the Avoca term of court, and clear up some other business which needs looking after. Two cases were disposed of yesterday by Judge Carson ng to issue the temporary writs ol nction asked for. One of these was the case against Mr. Ritter, who was charged with selling drinks, when, as is well known, he has not been in the saloon business at all. The other was the of Nels Smith, the court holding that the evidence was not sufticient. This breathing spell will be appreciated by the attorneys on both sides. During the past few days of wrangling Jacob Sims has been physically unable to appear ion of legal ses. Yester- decided to in court, and the prosecution has de- pended on Mr. Zink, who is a young law- yer only a year out of the school, and while he may develop into a good lawyer, he lacks experience, und it has been an uncqual warfare to pit him against the ablest and oldest members of the bar here. Mr. Sims will be able to take hold of the cases anew, and as he has both ex- perience and ability, he will doubtless make a better fight against such able at- torneys, as Mr. Haldene, Colonel Sapp, N. M. Pusey, W. A. Mynster and others. Even he, with the state law on his side, will find that he has no easy task. A Blind Pianist. There is now stopping in the city, ths guest of Dr. Richards, on Mynster street, a young man, or rather a boy, who is a musical wonder. His name is G. S. Housh, and his home is near Ft. Wayne. He is but nineteen years of age, and has been blind since the age of five years. He has been thoroughly educated at the stitution in Indiana, and is especially proficient in music. Besides a musical education, he is gifted with great natural endowments, which have developed rap- idly for one of his age. Since he has been in the city a number of citizens and judges of music have had the privilege of hearing him play on the piano, and they have been enthusiastic in their praise. Yesterday the BEE representative, with others, were at Dr. Richards’ resi- dence, and listened to him. To say that his performance is wonderful but taintly expresses it. The most difficult and classical musicisin his repertoire, and he executes these with the greatest ease, and with marvelous expression. He seems to bring outof a piano all the music there is in it. All that is needed is for one to play a piece, no matter how difticult, or to read the notes to him, and he at once catches it, his memory holds fast to every note, and he plays it at once. Last weck fourteen pages of the most difficult music were thus read to him, and that very day he played it accurately and with an expression which showed that he had already fami- lianized himself with it. He has thus stored nwn{ in his memory, to guide his fingers in their blind but rapid running oyer the keyboard, three score or more of the great master productions. Yes- terday to please those who called upon him he PY&)'cd Liszt's transcription of Tannhauser's march, executing it won- derfully well. Such is vut a sample of the class of compositions with which he is familiar. There has been some desire expressed here to have arrangements made for him to appear in concert, be- fore he leaves the city. He has very limited means, and is very desirous of securing enough to enable him to further his studies in Europe, aud if a benefit concert could be arranged, it would doubtless prove an enjoyable one to those who attended, while it would give needed assistance toa worthy, slruxulinf young man whose gifts promise ere long to make his name a familiar one in all musical circles. s Playing High, The gas company has fixed up an or- dinance for the council to pass, renewing their charter. ‘I'he assurance is given that the request to renew this monopoly will be pigeon-holed by the council, and that the proposed ordinance will never pass a second reading, The rates which this company proposes are as follows; 8, That In consideration of the pled, herein granted to sald company, it shall fur- nish the Inhabitants with i Inm(nluu gas at $§3 per 1,000 cubic feet, until the amount annually consumed for illuminating run shall a"uu 50,000,000 cubie feet, when he price shall be reduced to $2.50 per 1,000 cubie feet until the amount annu; ‘H con- sumed for illuminating purm« 8| | 100,000,000 cublc feet, when the price shall be reduced to $2 per 1,000 cubic feet, and so re- main until the u&izuon of the grant herein wade; provided, it any new disovery or W lmprovement be made in the mi ture of gas from coal or other mate either fluid or solid, by which the cost of producing the same s mater- lally lesssened, and the same shall be adopted in other prlm-\;;fl cities of the coun- try, then, d ju guch case, said company shall jotroduce such Lmprevement manufacture of its gas in saic uky.

It was hauled from St. Paul to St. Anthony by a twelve-ox team. The boat’s first passengers were a delegation of Chippewas, who hud been attending a council at Fort Snelling. This chronicler of river history goes on to note that Governor Ramsey presented the Loat with a flag. She did good ser- vice for three vears and was succeeded by the H. M. Rice, a side-wheeler. The machiery of the Governor Ramsey was then sentto do duty on a boat that was run on the Red River of the North. That “boating' was profitable in those days cannot doubted when it is clnimed that the Governor Ramsey paid for itself in the first three montns of its existence. SPECIAL NOTICES.
