The preliminaries gm being arranged as rapidly as possi- le, and work in earnest is to commence without delay. e A Chance For Reform. The discovery made in regard to the concrete curbings seems not to be a new one. Another well known and responsi- ble citizen says that he found that the oontractors who put the curbing in along his property last year did not use the amount of cement which the contract called for. Instead of putting one-third cement to two-thirds sand, there was not more than one-ifth cement. He saw them put six buckets of sand to one of cement. When it came to his assessment he entered a protest, but found that it was of no avail. The assossment had to be paid, or it would be as a lien upon the property. It seems that this sort of procedure has been fiolnz one more than has bheen realized. any begin to wonder now how it hap- ens that the officials whose business it 8 to look after contracts have not kept better watch. ‘I'fie city engineer has ad more than he could” attend to and Eu had little time to devote to standin, y and watching the men as (heysmll::uxfi ucl L] ;lnd and cement for curbing. theclaim 18 defense. On the other han is made that he ays employs such help as is necessaryfor his department without asking the counci), and the council cheerfully pays the bills, 1f he needed another man for the purpose ot supervising the curbing, oce coula have been had at little expense. There is said to have been a looseness about contracts also, and it is claimed that some work has been done for the oity without the sonlracu being signed or” bonds given, he documents being all drawn up but never executed. —_—— Personal Paragraphs.

Few people, residents of Council Bluffs or vicinity, have the leust idea of the amount of work done by the Union Pa- cific railroad company in Council Bluffs the past year or so. Many miles of side tracks have been put in, and an immense amount of im- provements have been laid out with a view of facilitating the hundllni of not only the increasing freight busi ness, but also that of the passenger service, The Missouri river bridge has been en- tirely rebnilt, the widening of the ap- proach to the bridge on this side of the river, and laying of a double track direct to the passenger transfer, known as the Union depot; the building of some ten or twelve bridges over Spoon lake, and many other improvements all go to show that it is the intention of this cor- oration to remove to thiscity a very arge portion of the business heretofore confined not alone to the Omaha yards, but to their shops in that city. The improvements already completed, as well ns those in course of construc- tion, show their new yards as they may very properly be termed, to be the most extensive railroad yards in the west without doubt. Work is being pushed vigorously on a number of improvements which will further facilitate the business. 1t is no doubt the intention to make up all west- bound freight trains in these new yards. Numerous tracks are now being put mn for this purpose, and with the making up of the passenger trains, which hasbeen entirel, removed to this city, Council Bluffs will after the twenty odd years existence of the Union Pacific railroad finally become the terminus of this great trunk line in fact, as well as in name. The new passenger-coach yards are now in good working order, although several new buildings are contemplated, as well as the completion of a score of minor details which goto make a well regulated passenger-coach yard. The old ‘‘dummy’ track has been straightened from the junction switch, where the passenger and freight tracks separate, up to the passenger depot. This increased the room for the pas- senger-coach yards, which are located between the dummy track and those on which start the passenger trains that run into the west end of the passenger depot. They are large and admit of a largeincrease in business. Befl_nnin at the brick building known a8 the land office immediatoly west of the passenger depot there is being con- structed a building in which to clean the cushions, (inrpels, ete., of these passenger coaches. It will be jointly occupied with material used by the truck repairers. In the next building is located the truck repairers, there being twenty five men emploqu under the foreman, Thomas Evans. Next going west comes the inside trim- ming department in which is located the glaziers, carpenters, tinners, uphol- sterers, etc. The coach cleaners consist of forty-five men_ under Mr. Flemming, foreman. A change has been made in the working of this department since its removal to this city, it now being done under the supervision of the Pullman company. The supply department 18 under J. King’s supervision. ‘I'hen comes the boiler, ice, coal and oil houses. ¥. C. Howard is clerk of the Pullman car stores and linen department. It is from this department that the change of linen, ete., 1n the Pullman cars is made, as well as where the conductors and por- ters begin and end their runs. That the buffet cars will be put in use on the Union Pacific road shortly 18 proven by the fact that the suppliesand storesfor th ese cars are already begin- ning to arrive, and are quartered in the Pullman stores and linen department, previous to the establishment of a sep- arate department for these new coaches. The Pullman company also have a de- partment in which they manufacture and repair their mattresses, etc. It is in charge of E. Peterson. Leaving the improvements about the assenger coach yards and goiug south 0 about half way between the freight office and the union elevator is the site of the new round house. This new round house is to be a twenty- stall one. That is, only twenty stalls will be erected for the present, but the lans show it to be built so as to add orty stalls whenever 1t is the desire of the management, making it then a round house capable of holding sixty locomo- tives. About sixty workmen are now em- ployed upon the construction of this round house, The foundation is being put in and a large quantity of granite as well as other material is on the ground. Large sheds have been constructed for use by the workmen employed. Derricks for the holsting of the granite in position and everything possible to facilitate the completion of the building is ready. ‘The erection of a large number of dwelling houses will shortly be com- menced in this section of the city, con- vonlenq{ located for the use of railroad men and others whose employment will be near there. Iv will be necessary for train crews particularly to reside on this side of the river. It has already been found very inconvenient for the large number of workmen employed in these new yards to reside in Omaha, and assoon as houses can be put up they will no doubt be occu- pied as fast as completed. T THE BOTTOM FACTS, CLEANING RESERVOIR, The Glen Avenue Reservoir Emptiea of Water For the Annual Cleaning. Yesterday morning those who were upon the streets at an early hour looked 1n all directions to see where the fire had been the night before. The gutters were flooded with water as though there had been a night's work by the fire depart- ment. The mystery was solved by the fact that the reservoir on Glen avenue, in which the Waterworks company stores 1ts big supply, and which gives a head to the lu{nplv. had been emptied for its an- nual clearing, Glen avenue, at the head of which the reservoir is located is filled and graded, an bein’ it was found to be impracticable to vour forth the water from the reservoir direct, as 1t would have washed away much of this fresh dumped earth. The four hydrants farther down the avenue were thrown open and the water emptied through these. It wasa flood indeed, and only a small portion of it could get through the storm sewer. The rest went tearing down the avenue, washiug great %ulloyl and making the avenue impas: le for vehicles, The water works c pany went to work at once with teams repairing the damage done to the avenue and rendering it as good as ever 'Y ‘The reservoir, which 18 located on the side of one of the high bluffs, has p capac- lt{ of 4,600,000 gallons. It {8 briok lined. ‘The water has been allowed to be reduced by consumption until it barely covered the top of the pipe from which the water is drawn, This upright pipe, with a ieve at the top, stands about six feet ahove the bottom of the reservoir, For the protection of the public it is not best to use any of the six feet of water covering the bottom of the reservoir, and what flows into the_supply pipes comes from above this. It was this quality of water which was drawn off yesterday, amounting to half a million gallons. This left the bottom plain to view. It was not & pleasant landscape, as the earth which had settled on the bottom was rather moist and devoid of vegeta- tion. It was smooth enough for a lawn but hardly grassy enough. The mud was about six’inches deep. For a reservoir of its size, and for an annual cleaning, the showing was one which wiil favora- bly canuro with any reservoir in the city. The brick work was found to have suffered in a few places by the ice of last winter, but on the whole was in good condition. The settlings are being all cleaned out, the bricks replaced where needed, and the reservoir will in a day or two be urood a8 new. The draining off of the water left num- erous fish stranded, and a goodly catch was had, some of them being quite weighty. Some fresh water clams were found. There was an absence of any sensational finds, such as have been rumored to be in every metropolitan reservoir. In fact the disclosure of these bottom facts was such thav those who in- urected the site found their relish none the less keen for the clear water fur- nished by the hydrant.

Her testimony in the murder trial caused more comment than that of any other witness, as she claimed to have seen the tragedy, and to have so scen it that Dr. Cross was the one assaulted, and that he acted in self defense in killing Dr. McKune. Her testimony on that trial was so near to that given by Dr. Cross, in almost every detail cooresponding exactly, as to cause a hvely discussion of this important fea- ture of the testimony. When Drum-Major Carbee was brought back here and lodged in jail, Mrs. Arnold was found to be the lady who visited him in jau, which caused ‘some surprise as Carbee was supposed to be almost u stranger in the cit; Yesterday Mrs, nold commenced suit for damages against Charles Baughan, a well-known citizen whose possessions, according to her estimate as stated in the petition, amount to about $50,000. She claims that Baughan, in conversation with W. L. Biggs, C. Wesley, John J. Churchill, W. ng nd other prominent citizens, made use of some scandulous language concerning her pedigree and her character. She claims that he said he would not believe her under oath, and otherwise assailed her character. For this she wants $10.000 damages. Mrs. Arnold hasnot been without ex- perience_in the courts. In the circuit court, February term, 1884, she com- menced an action against Seifert Reise, a saloon keeper at Crescent, c]uiminghllu,- 000 damages, on the ground that the sa- loon man had sold her husband drinks, despite her notifications that he must not do so. She claimed that in the month of January her husband got drunk at the defendant’s saloon, and while trying to cross a bridge on his way home, fell over and received injuries which caused his death the tollowing August. The case is said to have been settled by the defendant paying her $250. Mrs. Arnold is also trying to get a pen- sion on account of the death of her hus- band, and is daily expecting to zet some tidings from her case, as she lileh her ap- plication less than a month after his death, g —— Pacific house is the nearest hotel to the majority of real estate oflices in the city; $2 per day. .

Enquire of A. gil(iruennmnycr. 623 Mynster st., tele- A Diacovery in the Neighborhood Jof Joseph—Some Rich Marble. The Portland Oregonian says: T. L. Brophy, formerly of Washoe, where he was prominently connected with the mines for twenty years, but lately of Warden, Caur d' Alene, was 1n town last week, showing some very fine samples of ore from the neighborhood of Joseph, Wallowa county, The samples include silver, copper, zine _and tin, and assay very highly for surface rock. [o these minerals Mr. Brophy adds another dis- covery, likely to be pnrticulnrlg valuable to Portland, namely, white, black and yariegated marble, as pure as ever came from the celebrated Italian quarries. A company has been organized at Joseph, which has succeeded in getting possession of the most favorable locations. The new discovery lies some fifty miles north- west of Pine creek, and is evidently a continuation of the great Caur d' Aléne belt. The report comes to vs in perfectly reliable form. TheOregonian considers it of somuch importance to the future busi- ness 1nterests of Portland that it shall send a well known and competent expert to examine the country thoroughly in the course of two weeks. Ths company is developing its property by a tunnel which will strike the ore at such a depth as to prove its value and permancy. At present no doubt seems to exist of either. The veins on the surface show as well as in Caeur d' Alene’ sl ey Painless Regulatlon. It is no longer a question of doubt— although the contrary was once believed —that medicines which produce violent effects are unsuited to other than desper- ate emergencies. In other words, that super-potent remedies are calculated to weaken and injure the system rather than reform its irregularities. Among medicines of a debilitating effect are cathartics and cholagogues which copi- ously and abruptly evacuate the bowels, Because 1t does not do this, Hostetters’ Stomach Bitters are preferable to the drenching class of pergatives. Painless in its effects, it is sufficiently active to reme chronic co“upnlon. It re- lieves by invigoratin, e intestines, and enables, not forces, them to peform the duty imposed upon Chemb{n ture.

The personnel of the conven. tion was not that of mere boys, for while there were some present who are still in their teens, thero were present middle- Td and old men, who ard interested in the pleasant and instructive hobby of the collection and assortment of stamps of all the nations of the earth. The stamp collector takes up_the little s%um red or yellow paper, and from the Gharacters on It reads the ideas and his- tory of tbe i‘ovnmmmu of nations far away. ‘The hobby carried vn to its full extent is costly, perhaps, but 1t is cer- tainly instructive, and the young stamp collectors delight in a knowledge of the countries of which they read. There were only a few delegates pres- ent in Chicago, but it is estimated by them that in the United States there are ten journals devoted to the interests of the philatelist; that there are twelve dealers whiose sole trade is in postage stamps of the various varieties; that there are thirty local philatehic societies; that thero are about 6,000 permanent collectors of stamps and about 800,000 small col- lectors at work most of the time, who begin the work and then drop off This is a large constituency, s gates recognized their duties to them. The first thing they did yesterday was to have their pictures taken in_a group. Then they returned to the hotel and adopted their reconstructed constitution and passed resolutions. The first of these gave James Chalniers credit as the in- ventor of the adhesive stamp; the second was a vote of thanks to the Chicago so- ciety and the ofticors and committees. Then they adjourned to discuss stamps, their kinds, values and *collections. How many varieties of postage stamps exist is a huge conundrum to “even the collector. More and more varieties turn up every day. Some differ in the tints of paper, some in the tints of ink, some are pertorated and some are unperforated; some have double perforates, some are gummed and some ungummed, some are water-marked and grilled, and so they o on. In the United States W. C. Van 1tt, of Boston, has a huqe collection, and it is uupgosed to be the largest. Mr. E. B, Sterling, of Trenton, N. J. makes a business of collecting United States stamps. He exhibited a collection of the latter during the convention, which were said to _number 6,000, and which he values at $5,000. He has five varieties, different colors, of the $5,000 revenue stamps, which he values at $100 each. The stamp was abolished in 1882, and now there are no duplicates to his set. He has two shades or tints of the 500 stamps which are worth $50 each, e has proofs and designs of stamps without end, one set in eleven different colors just as submitted by the engraver, Carpenter, to the government. There is also a $20 probate of will stamp, which are said to exist in ten collections only, and which are worth $50 each. Mr. Ster- ling has the first, second and third issues of internal revenue stamps complete, in- luding fourtean. varieties of stamuvs where the medalions are up side down, The shifting of the medalions makes the fourteen worth $100. Besides the internal revenuc stamps, there are about $6,000 proprietary stamps used by manufac- turers of matches, playing cards, etc., to pay the tax placed on these articles dur- ing the war. One of these proprictary stamps is the Richmond match stamps, 3¢, long and bl Mr. Sterling says that he has the ouly one in existence, and it is worth $100. The most costly, or the rarest stamp in the world is said to' be the 1-penny red and 2-penny blue of Mauritiu: Only two of euch kind are said to be in_exist- ence, and one of the Rothschilds is said to have paid $4,300 for one set. ——— Dyspepsia and Torpid Liver.
