The demand bids fair to greater than the supply, which may ncrease their value somewhat still, 1t has been suggested that as there are to be six electric light towers erected,one will be put up in front of the_ residence of each of tho six aldermen, It has not boen decided where “Uncle Cy’ will ave bis put up, but probably upon roadway. A shell of a house yesterday oaused considerable stir while being moved. It was moved along Broadway and camein co?luwt with all the telephone, electric light and fire alarm wires that stretohed across the street. The bricks of the chimney tell and nearly struck several persons on Broadway. An express drove up to Rev. Mr. Croft's residence yesterday with a beautiful rosewood chair, upholstered in leather. A modest eard attached indicated that it as a gift from two lttie girls, Anna ergen and Ada Stevenson, who took this mode of expressing their admiration. Twd thirteen-and-a-half-inch ears of corn, brought to this eity by J. B. Riggin, attract considerable attention nnhcglnn- hattan. They were raised by William Samuels, near Plum Hollow, on a farm that has been under cultivation for forty years, The average on this farm will be sixty bushels to the acre. In consequence of the grand jury's nyl finding any indictments against four of the prisoners that have been laying in the county jail they were discharged yes- terdny. They were Ira Jones,charged with shooting with intent to kill, and the man whom Deputy Marshal White had such a time securing at the river bank; Chris Bader. charged with being anaccomplice in the robbery of an old man near the Kansas City yards; Pat Maloney, charged with pocket picking, and Charles Rams- ford for resisting an oflicer. A. Laventhal, who for a time has begn !'lmn|n|§l a patent odorless scavenger iv_azon ere, has been spending most ot is time in Omaha lately. A good sized board bill at the Kiel 'house was neg- lected by him and a day or two ago Ee soid his n[;fiurntua and prepared to go east with his family, He failed to keep his promise tosend & check to pay the bill and he was reminded of it by the sheriff’ just as the train was about to pull out of the transfer, bearing him to New York. He paid the bill quicker, proba- bly, than he ever paid auny previous one, and was allowed to hurry on his jour- ney. e - Money to loan. Cooper & Judson, Sl el J. W. and E. L.

An Arcount Fixed For Bailding Permit Fees and No Penalty Named. A PARK CONCERT TO-NIGHT' Another Daylof Sharp Legal Fighting Over Prohibition—Short Pointers. on Keal Estate and Bullding Activity—Killing Blackbirds. Bungling Law Making. The city council about two weeks ago d an ordinance which was intended er a very '‘mportant matter. There has been no ordinance, such as s com- mon in other cities, providing for the issuance of building permits. There was anold ordinance which provided that hefore making certain excavations a permit should be obtained from the city clerk, but this was of little account, even if enforced, and worse than that it was treated as a dead letter. There were numerous reasons, many of them apparent to any one thinking about the matter, why an ordinance was needed to regulate the erection of build- ings and the making of improvements, The council has attempted to fill this want in part at least, but it has proved asad failure. Without attempting to fix the responsibility, the fact is sufficient that the ordinance as published would do to tileaway alongside of the law passed by an eastern legislature some years ago, in which the repealing clause “read: *“This and all other laws contflict with it are hereby repealed.” I'he first section of the ordinance is a sample of the literature in which many words are used to conceal a few ideas, and is interesting reading: ‘That hereafter it shall be the duty of any person or persons, company or companies, corporation or corporations, by themselves or agent or agents, who are about to, and who intend to make any improvements in said city, by the erection of any building on any street, highway, avenue or alley, either busi- ness house, dwelling house or the erection of any building or otlier improvement as afore- said, upon any business or resident street,, highway, avenue or alley, or when any ex- cavation is contemplal and about mada upon lot or lots within the limits of sald city, any person or persons, company or companles, corporation or corporations, by themselves, nfent or agents, before the com- mencement of the erection of any business building or dwelling house or other improve- ments, or the excavation in any lot or lots tory to making any improvements as d, shall apply to the city clerk for a permit to make said lmprovement or Im- provements as above mentioned. The next section attempts to provide that the applicant for such permit shall furnish the city clerk with a description of the land or lot and the nature and kind of the improvement to be made. It also provides that he shall pay the clerk the sum of ——. The blank has never been filled, and the clerk is evidently left to his own judgment, or to the generosity of the applicant. The other section of this remarkable ordinance makes the sweeping provision that ‘‘any person failing to take out said permit shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and on conviction shall be fined in a sum not_exceeding $— and costs.”” Here nan the judge is put in a puzzling frame of mind, for he cannot fine the offender more than §——. These blanks have evi- dently been overlooked, and hence the ordinance is an algebraic_one, with un- known quantities in abundance. The ordinance has gone nto the new book of ordinances, and is pronounced of no use there, or elsewhere. The need of a good building ordinance is daily apparent. The need is incre as the city grows. Were such a recor Kept as is contemplated by the ordinance it would show at the close of the year a greater growth in the city than is gen- erally supposed. —— ‘Whisky Punches. The old fight was rencwed in the dis- trict court yesterday, involving about the same old points as to closing up the sa- loons. The particular case in hand was that in which an attempt is made to se- cure a permanent injunction against the St. Louis house, which has been occupied by Doerflinger, and which is owned by Mzr. George D, Brown, one of the old citi- zens, who 18 himseif engaged in the coal business on Main street. The depositions taken to support the application for a permanent injuction having been sup- })ressml on account of some technical de- ects, the prosecution had to introduce other evidence to bolster up their case. ‘The last pair of saloon informers were put upon the stand and were subjected to anbout the same sort of cross- examination as when the contempt case against Brown was heard by Judge Car- son. These two young men had been hired away from farm work and given $3 a day and expenses to gather evidence in this city, to be used against saloons. They went from place to place, one buy- ing whisky, the other beer, and then sign- ing aflidavits of these facts. They drank about ten glasses each day, and still swore that they did not feel any special effects from it, although not used to drinking. They freely testified as to the arrangements by which they were hired to get this evidence. The defense tried to make a good deal of tais, ana dwelt largely upon the prosecution furnishing men with money and paying them wages to go around and induce other men to break the law, in order to sccure evidence with which to con- vict them. E.'W, Jackson, the old chief of police and ex-city marshal, was called to the stand also. He was an unwilling witness, and although he knew a great deal about the St. Louis house and is a near neighbor, he was not disposed to give anything which would help the prosecution. He was closely pinned down and the judge gave him'a gentle but firm prod, so that he hed to audmit that he knew that liquors were sold in the place. ‘The defense claimed that so far as Brown was concerned he knew nothing about the place being used as a saloon, and that his lease expressly provided that his tenants should not use it for sny un- lawful purpose. There were numerous legal questions raised, and the discussion of these was very strong and shrewd. The afternoon hour of adjournment had been reached when the arguments were closed, and Judge Deemer asking for the papers in the case, ordered the sheriff to an- nouncs the adjournment until 9:30 o'clock this morning. ————— Polints of Frogress, That Council Bluffs is not only holding her own but 1s steadily advancing, and hat there is a demand for real estate for actual settlers, is shown by the following chats and items: *‘Are you aware of the real estate transfers in this city are far better,' said F. J. Day yesterday, “than those of Omaha? It is the truth; we have for the last thirty days done more busi- ness, in proportion, than Omaha. Of course we don't expect to beat Omaha in this, but for the size of the two cities we are ahead of Omaha during the entlre summer, There are a great many de- mands for properfy but 1t is a healthy demand; all want it for improvement. ’l‘lblw\:e 150't apy speculative demand at all,’ B L Squire yesterday informed a rep- resentative of this paper that there are nine houses in coursd of construction in Squires’ addition. that cost from $600 to $1,800 each besides two store buildings. “‘Much demand for lumber for new dwellings?’ was the inurrurlion put to 8. P, MacConnell, of the Chi ago lum- he re ct that the THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 3. 1887 plied, “‘we are selling all the lumber we can haul with four teams and they keep us on the jump. ‘There's more building this year than this city ever saw before in any one season.’ “There are no good vacant stores in Council Bluffs at all,” said a dealer, “and I can’t see why some one don't put up a few buildings for the retail business, such as would be a credit to this city. [ have two customers that wish to open retail stores, They are both strangers and they can't find a place. If these people who are so wealthy would invest in a few buildings I am positive they would be a great in- vestment.” F. J. Day has sold his quarter interest in 1Paul’s “addition to J. W. Paul, of Omaha, this addition being owned ex- clusively by Omaha men now, “The demand for real estate i8 im- proving. There’s more action in the last two weeks than there has been in the sixty davs previous,” remarked Mr. Hulstead, of C. J. ('olbfy's oflice, yester- day. ‘“‘We are having fots of inquiries and are selling to people who are buying to improve their property.’’ Mr. Siedentopf, & gentleman recog- nized as a shrewd real estate man, saidin answer to a BEE man’s inquiries: ‘‘Busi- ness 18 much livelier and there is & much better demand for prolperly than there has been in a long while, 1t is a bealthier demaud than we have had in a long while. I put five deeds on recora yester- day and have money paid upon two good sales to-day. I think it will pick up con- siderable now. There has been n won: derful increase during the past two weeks and a half. I'm positive as_soon as the new briuh{c begins there will be muny sales made. A great many are looking around waiting for the bridge, but I don't see why they want to wait. When they get ready they will find prices advanced. If you will remember, Cooper & McGee went west thinking to invest, but they returned after an ex- tended trip concluding they'd better in- vest here, and tlle{ have done so and are building in several localities. They will get large returns, There are nv ex- travagant prices asked. We made a large loss when we did not send a com- mittee to Chicago to secure some of the lnria packers. I offered $100 as my share of the ¢xpenses and $500 to secure the lo- cation of Armoar or some large packer. We should have these packers located be- tween these two cities. It would be a bij thing for OUmaha as well as Council Bluffs, We are going slow but surer than ever. I have the utmost faith in this place a8 is seen in my continually buying in- stead of selling.” To give the reader an idea of Mr. Siedentopf’s interest in this city is only necessary to state that he pays about $2,500 taxes on his city property alone.

The ladies of the Helping Hand society, an organization formed little over a year ago, consisting of eight or ten ladies’ areinterested in the little ones atthe home. They gave a social and literary entertain- ment Tuesday evening for their benefit, which resulted even beyond expectations, as the day was ramny and the evening anything but pleasant. In conneotion with giving the social entertainment the ladies canvassed the town, giving each an opportunity of adding their mite, which was done with quite a hberal hand. The receipts for the evening and amount of cash given figured $55.20. The ladies gave $10 to thegeneral fund, 5 to Mrs. Daken, the matron, and $5 to Rev. Lemen, depositing the balance with the treasurer for future use. The intention is to purchase muslin and cloth, making sheets, pillow cases, night dresses and articles most needed. — Une Solitary Case. Justice Schurz concluded his labors as police judge yesterday wmorning, as Judge Aylesworth returned from the demo- cratic state convention and will again smile upon prisoners brought before him by the police department. During the absence of the police magis - trate Justice Shurz has dealt out justice, and his last chance was upon John Pay ne Ygslerdny morning. The ’squire treated him very leniently, and although charged with disturbing the peace and bein, drunk, dischargzed the latter case and fined hum_$15.50 for the former. 1t was o loss of $7.60 to the city.
