Complaint is made that the contract is not being fully carried out. The proposal of this company was so low a8 to surprise many, and there has been some wondering as to where the profit would come in. It is now claimed that the profit is being made by reducing the hours of burning the lamp: The con- tract provides that the lamps shall burn until midnight, but it is claimed that instead of so doing the lamps generally go out shortly after 11 o'clock. ~ These lamps have a reservoir, into which is supposed to be placed oil to keep them going until 13 o'clock. The lamps therefore extinguish themselves. It is claimed that the amount of oil is so stinted that the lamps die out long before the time called for in the contract. The lights seem to give excellent satisfaction in other respects, and a really superior Ifiht 18 given by them, The matter should be looked after prompn{. and it it appears that these complaints are bl”fl on facts, a reform should be in- ed on, e One thousand head of one, two and three-year-old steers for sale.

The City Council Deciding in Favor of Electric Light—Compiaine About the OIl Lamps—Che Police Court Doings, The Ope & of Court. A stranger stepping into the court room yesterday, at the opening of the term of the district court, would have made many mistakes before guessing rightly as to who was the judge. Judge Deemer, the youngest judge in lowa, pre- sides here for the first time. He is but twenty-seven years of age, and will not e able to add another figure to 1t until November. He is strictly professional in his garb and mien, dressed in black, im- maculate, but not foppish, rather of the theological cut, but with a boyish face, even when its features are in judicial re: pose. Most of the members of the bar had already had their curiosity satisfied by seeing him preside 1n other places, but outside of the bar there were many mental queries as to how he would act when he took his seat und court openod. Smooth faced, dark eyed, wearing his hair pompadour, the youth- ful look of the presiding judge was one to whiclf the outsiders had to become somewhat accustomed before their won- derment wore off. ‘I'here was more than one of those in attendanee who could not but recall the young man under different circumstances. The picture of a young man in a base ball suit, standing in a crouched straddle behind the bat, catch- ing the hot balls with the nimblencss of a cat after a mouse, came to them vividly, for it has been but one brief scason since Judge Deemer was the crack catcher of the Red Oak nine. He made the run from home base to the bench with phenomenal ~speed, and this wonderful change in position, brought about within a year, increased the natu- ru‘l]engcrness to sce how he would act as udge. : Judge Deemer did not come to the bench wholly unprepared by any means. Although indulging in athletic sports as a healthy recreation, he had for years been an ambitious student with a bright mind and had entered upon a most suc- cessful practice of the law when the pee- ple bid him come up higher. He hus al- ready won the reputation of being the most business-like judge in_the district. He is very prompt in his rulings, brooks no delays or foolishness and holds the lawyers right down to their work. He hasa rich bass voice. speaks rather de- liberately and impresses one with natu- ral dignity and conszious power without mockery or offensive conceit. Yesterday was spent largely in the monotonous calling of the calendar, to ascertain what cases were to be tried and what disposition should be made of others. He stated on the outset that he desired to have the docket cleared of all rubbish, so that it might be got down to a clear working basis. He started in with an evident intention of doing a Zood deal of weeding out: and by the aid of the attorneys present he succeeded well. There was need of it. The bulky docket contained 900 cases. Many of these have been carried along, term after term, docket after docket, with not an additional entry or change. As a sample, one divorce case was cal had been on the dockets for nearly three years. The at- torney who had originally started the case had moved away, and left the case hanging on the hooks. As there was no one to speak in the matter, Judge Deemer, remarking that any one ought to get a divorce in two or three f'n'nrs, if they were going to get one at all, struck the case from the calendar. The weed- ing process went on quite rapidly. There were many cases which had long since amounted to nothing, even if there was 0ssibly something to them on the start, [he only object these cases had served was the keeping of the attorneys names in print, making an advertisement, by swelling the number of cases which they were supposed to have in court. One by one these professional cards were stricken out, and the judge knocked this well established advertising scheme with- out mercy. In trying to make a general arrange- ment for the trial of causes the county attorney, Colonel Daily, expressed a do- sire to have thecriminal calender tuken up next Mondy. was agr and on that day will begin the t criminal cases. There are forty cas the docket, and some twenty-six or more prisoners in jail, whose trials will take place before that of those who are on bail. There aredhree murder cases, two of which will be tried, and perhaps all of them. Each of these will take a week. The most of September will therefore be taken up with the criminal cases. The trial jury is smnmoned to be here on Monday next. The time this weck will therefore be taken up with matters before the judge. The grand jury began its labors yesterday afternoon. Much interest centers in the prohibi- tion cases against the saloons. There are a Inrfiu number of these, and Judge Deemer has been looked upon as arather strong supporter of the prohibition law. Attorney Sims, who represents the pro- hibitionists in the prosecution of these cases, suggested that he wanted the cases set as early in the term as conven- ient, and desired that the assignments be so made that when they got started on these cases, they could proceed with them, clearing them all up without ary interruptions. This called Colonel Sapp out, e is attorney for a number of the defendants, Attorney Haldene for others, and Attorney Myuster for still others. Colonel Sapp wanted to know if these cases were to be specially favored, and taken out of their order to accom- modate the prohibitionists. They were among the last cases on the calendar. Let them take their chances with the others, Mr. Sims replied that there were many of them contempt cases, and applications for injunctions, and such cases should always be given s precedence. Colonel Sapp replied that they had been at work on these cases during the hot dog-days, lugfimz away at them with their coats’ ul", and nearly overcome., The term had been now reached at which there should be a final and thorough hearing on the question of permanent in- junetion, instead of rushing along to get a hearing on temporary writs, Judge Deemer remarked that he would endeavor to so make his assignment as to expedite business and prove satisfac- tory to the bar. If there were any con- tempt cases lhc}v should be reached |fieedily and carefully looked into. From the tone in which he made these remarks the intimation was gathered that he would not countenance any need- less delays. There were a number of attorneys present from out of thecity, smong them Colonel C, R. Scott and Judge Bartlett, of Omaha; H. B. Williams, of Glenwood; H. E. Booth, of Carson, and J. P, Organ, of Neola. Judge Reed, of the supreme bench, was a looker on for a few min- utes. L. W. Ross, late chancellor of the lowa law school, put in his first appear- ance since he took up his residence here, The bar docket is the fattest volume ever put forth here. Of the 900 cases there are 375 equity causes and 477 in law. The number of divorces shows up well, there being twenty-six mislit couples waiting for decrees. ‘There was some curiosity felt to hear Judge Deemer's charge to the grand =i d to, jury, asit was thought that he would plrl\cnlnrly dwell upon their duties in ragard to the prohibitory law. The charge was quite lengthy, was carefully prepared, and very evenly tempered. In regard to the prohibitory law he simply explained their duties and remarked that these duties must be performed without any regard to what their indi- vidual opiniens might be in regard to the Iaw being politic or wise, That re- sposibility must rest upon the assembly which makes and unmakes laws. The assignment of cases for to-day, Thursday and Friday, includes none but saloon cases, ‘The class of cases to be heard during these three days are those in which an effort is being made to have the temporary injunction mud9 perma- nent. Depositions have been ftilled, and the first skirmish will be over a motion to have these depositions suppressed. Court adjourned until 9:30 o'clock this mnran, a half hour earlier than other judees have been in the habit of opening court. ———— Watches, clocks, jewelry, ete., the best in the city.

The city council was in session yester- day afternoon as committee of the whole to consider the question of lighting the streets. The conference was held with closed doors, and the discussion was free and full. The tendency seemed to be to divide along the old line, with Wells, Metcalf and Lacy on the side of progress and electric light, and Keller, Danforth and Hammer more conssrvative and leaning toward the yellow gas. The pe- tition of tax-payers asking the council to make some judicious contract by which the city could have the benetit of electric lights, was treated with great consideration, and scemed 133 have _ great weight. As Alder- men Hammer remarked, “'If we don’t vote for electric light I suppose the peo- ple will howl.’ = Alderman Wells re- minded him that they were there as rep- resentatives of the people, to do the will of the people, and it did not matter whether the people wanted to howl or not, so long as they did what the people wanted. The Yeliliun of the taxpayers showed very clearly what many of the people wanted. After much discussion the committee decided in favor of adopting the twenty- fitth proposition of the electric light company with one change. The propo- sition as made by the electric light com- pany is s follows: *‘For four hights on the county court house and twenty-four lights on six masts, 150 feet high, at $20 per month per light on a two years' contract, pro- vided the city will either purcha: masts at seven-eighths of their original cost or enter into a new contract sutis- factory to both parties for the unexpired portion of the ten years.” The mayor suggested that instead of paying seven-eighths for the masts the city should not pay over two-thirds. This was agreed to, and the council unani- mously decided, as a committee of the whole, in favor of accepting this proposi- tion of the electric light company, pro- vided the company would make the change suggested., V; In reaching this conclusion the motion was made by Alderman Lacy, and was seconded by Alderman Metealf. 'I'he vote was unanimous, Alderman Danforth alone being silent. When asked how he would vote he said **Aye,and thus put the council on record as unanimously 1n favor of acceding to the wishes of the citi- zens as expressed in the petition. 1t remains for the company to decide whether the change suggested shall be made or ng The directors will meet to- ddy to decide. ‘I'he council will meet this evening,when the committee of the whole will report,and final action will probably be taken. ————— Visit the new jeweler, C.

Points of Police Stars, It is seldom that anyone gets more than his just deserts before Judge Aylesworth. It is often the reverse and many who frequent the court room are of the opin- ion that his honor is, in many instances, peculiarly light upon certain classes of offenders, Yesterday there appeared two young men from "Lancaster, Pa., one eighteen and the other twenty-five years of age. Frank Sherwoud, the elder of the two, was the firsc to be brought forward. As a vagrant ho pleaded not guilty, even if he was arrested while asleep, with his brother-in-law, John Gunyon, in_a Mil- waukee box car. As is usual in such cases the judge began to question him in regard to his last working place. It1s a cold day when the judge can't corner a tramp, but Sherwood had a good story and an apparently true one. In answer to questions put by his honor, he replied, that he'd worked for himself since ne was sixteen years of age, He said, “No iullli", 1 don't own a farm. 1 nsed to he pretty well fixed. 1 lost $700 when I was a jobber in leaf tobacco, two years ago.” He then ex- plained every move he had made since then even to haying paid $200 indebted- ness and still owing $120 more. He told how he hud worked with an advertising company; haa made tents as well as worked in the corn field. As his brother- in-law backed him in what he said the judge bad nothing else to do but let them go. William Nice, American, twenty-four, junk dealer, was anything but nice in his appearance as he stepped forward to face his honor. Drunk and disturbing the peace were the charges, but as Nice acknowledged being drunk and said he'd pay $7.00 his honor did mot push the other charge. Lloyd Wilson, colored, a resident of Mrs. Prayler's Broadway hotel said, he was fifteen years of age and pleaded guilty of disturbing the peace to the tune of $9.60. John Rafferty, an innocent looking Irishman, said he was not guilty of being drunk. He was arrested with John Nolan, they both being asleep in_a shoe shop. Nolan corroborated Raflerty. They had both been employed on the sewer for the past week and Rafferty had been arrested twice in a week since he came over from Omaha. He begins to think this city is a tough place.

At the post is located a body of nuns under the clmrfie of a mother superior who is one of the youngest and most devoted of her sect. "The Sisters are mostly em- Kloyenl in teaching Indian schools, and ave met with remerkable success in this field. It requires a good deal of piety for a young girl to consecrate her life to such'a work. She not only leaves the world, but she departs afar from home and friends, setting up, as it were, an altar in the wilderness, and there, with no hope of eartaly reward, she gives her life to the betterment of the most unpromising of God's people. Mr. Holman, of Indiana, in his visit to Dukota two years ago, was very strong in the expression of the opinion that these Indian schools ought to be carried on remote from Indian posts. He said that it was wrong to surround soidiers and the Indian women with the tempta- tions that beset them -while in close proximity, and perhaps the incident here narrated shows the wisdom of his judg- ment, About six months ago the Sisters at the post mentioned were reinforced by a very beautiful nun who had just com. pleted her stated course for such work and had been sent outto take part in the task of regenerating the savags. She was but twenty-two, and the life, the country—everything was new to her. She went to her task uncomplainingly, but all was strange and marvellous. The only persons she saw outside of the Sis- ters and the Indians were the officers of the post. who were accustomed to paying frequent visits ta the schools. Anmong the ofticers was a darling lieutenant who has the reputation of being very fascin- ating. He niarried,but his wife was absent on an extended journey. He saw Sister Angela, a8 we will call her, though that is not her name, and was at once smitten. He wasnot slow in showing signs of interest, and 1t was evident that the young nun was by no me indiffer- ent to the handsome oflicer, he mother superior said nothing, but watched pro- ceedings very curefully. Finally the young man w ilaced under arrest for some siight offence and ordered to keep his quarters. Not being able to ster Angela, he wrote her a note, saying he was in trouble and begging her to come to him. 'This letter come into the hands of the mother supérior, and w: delivered. He followed this up with an- other, and still agother, but all met the same fate, Finally the mother superior took sick. She was confined to her room for a few days, and during that time the lieuten- ant’s notes reached Sister Angela and were promptly answered. A meefing was arranged and she saw him-—how many times 15 not known, but the meet- ings were discovered, vnd immediate steps were taken to put a stop to them. After expostulation and warning, both on the part of the wayward sister and on the part of the officers to the infatuated lieutenant, 1t was determined as a last resort to send Angela back to the con- vent in the east for discipline. In the charge of a nun, therefore, she was taken to the railroad, and by this time is surely housed within the protecting walls of the home institution. The licutenant is said to be resolved to discover her by hook or crook, but it is understood that if he persists the military authorities will take a hand in the busin and & court martial will result. — The National Complaint.
