Martin Lawler, an old resident, who bas been long sick, died yesterduy morn. mfl at his home 1n this city. The funeral will be announced later. A stoop-shouldered, grey-haired man, about twenty years of age, in a helpless drunken condition was one of the sights upon Broadway yesterday. The enginecrs began the surveying {eulerdny on Eighth avenue for the loca- ion of the twenty new cottages and resi- eences to be erccted by C. J. Colby. The city engineer’s -estimate on the sewerage completed finds $11,157.20 of the special assessment and $4,214.80 of the Intersection assessment due to Weightman & Mller. C. J. Colby, becoming tired of trying to get the Union Pacitic company to cut the weeds and sunflowers upon the U. P. ground about the transfer, started men at work yesterday to do it. The Union Elevator compuny is put- ting in a ten-inch sewer from the elevs tor, running it into Spoon lake, a dis- tance of 900 feet. A Jouncil Bluffs in- stitution furnished the sewer pipe. Charles Fisher and Ed. Denning were last night arrested as vagrants. They were put off the dummy train near the packing house and rested all might in the county jail. J. Suit, a drunk, was arrested last mght and taken to the county jail, as the stench in the city jail is so strong that the police were afraid he'd be dead before this morning. Mr. Griflith has the contract for build- ing a $3,000 residence on Park avenue for an Omaha real estate man, who pro- poses making this his home as soon as the house can be made ready for occu- Manager. exams ndicting storn on Willow avenue that cost the city 2,500 is being fil'ed previous to building the sewer.” This is the way rogress is being made by the city, it having no further use for cisterns for fire purposes. Those are things of the past. The young ladies of the Congregational church invite you to a hemming bee this evening at the residence of Mr. Wallace on Bluffs street. Each guest is invited to spend onc-half hour in sewing. A prize will ve given to the best lady and gentle- man hemmers. Messrs. Allen & Bell, the new archi- tects, are overrushed with work upon new residences to ke built this fall. T have many plans very pretty and com plete among those 'hey are at work on, which include ten plans for C. J. Colby to be erected upon Eighth avenue west of the transfer., Weightman & Miller, the sewer build- ers, yersterday filled in Fourth street where the rain had caused the earth on top of the sewer to settle. It is a notice- able fact that the earth over the sewer on this street, put in a couple of years ago, had sunken just as much as the new fill. It should be thoroughly understood that all persons making improvements to their property in the way of additions should, us well as those who are about to erect new buildings, get out bulding permuts. The city clerk will supply them. There is a fine for those neglect- ing to comply with the ordinance. George and Thomas Green were Tues- day thrown from a buggy, the horse be. coming frightened 1n some way. Geor, escaped with & few bruises but his brother was more lenouslr hurt, He was resting more comfortab) F yesterday, with good prospects of a full and speedy recovery. The difficulties attending the captainey of the guards have been in part removed by the resignation of Captain Messimer, who has moved to Omaha. There was some little friction and some dissatisfac- tion, although for the most part the company seemed to be well content with him at the head. New difliculties now arise, although not serious, for some one must be selected to succeed him. There are four anxious candidates. The aspi- rants are to be given ample opportunity to drill the company, and thus show which 1s most fitted for the position, the company to decide later by a vote. i Personal Paragraphs, Charles L.

P. Preparing to Push Up Tenth Avenune—Morse Jury Disagroes. The Visiting Aldormen, Last week Aldermen Horn and Thor- oughgood, of Janesville, Wis.) visited this city for the purpose of investigating the workings of the fire and police alarm, that city being about to adopt some system. As the Gamewell and Richmond companies had each made propositions to put alarm boxes into Janesville, the council of that city was in much the same sort of a perplexity as that of this city was some time ago. which to adopt. It was a question As the (iamewell is used in Omaha and the Richmond on this side of the river, the committee came hither to see for themselves. They have returned home, and their official report to the council on Monday evening was in favor of the Gamewell and is as follows: * The undersigned, at the suggestion and wishes of the members of the council, visited Omaha, Council Bluffs and Chicago for the urpose of getting at the facts and otherwise 5etnrlllhllll]{ which of the two systems of fire alarm telesraph--the (ilmewed and Rich- mond—would be the proper one for the city of Janesville to adopt. We have done so, and in company with the leading ofticers of tha city council the alarms were tested a number of thmes—both patrol and fire—and we pronounce in favor of the Gamewell, The Iatter has never failed them since it was put in. The mayor and leaders of the fire de- partment visited Denver and oth citles for the same tor, before nm{ decided which to adopt. The Richmond, s and has been a source of trouble and cannot be depended upon. quainted with Chief Engineer Templeton, of the above speak in its favor, although he was one who was favorable to Its purchase. We bave made a thorough Investization of this matter, hoth with interestod from the mayors of the two places down, an cannot favor any but the Gamewell; for, in fact, we believe, after a thorough canvass znd tests we think It to the interest of the city of Janesville to adopt the Gamewell system, large purpose we wefe there Council Bluffs, is a failure, I am personaily ac- lace. He would not nor did not and disinterested parties, iven us very freely in all its branches, CuAnres Horn, J. THOROUGHGOOD, The proposition by the Gamewell com- pany was to put in a complete system, five” riiles of wire and ten boxes, bell striker, gongs and battery for $2,000, add- i‘efmlive more boxes at the same time for for the tifteen boxes, the total to be $2,500. The Richmond company proposed to put in a system additional boxes from the Gamewell company to cost $125 each, while the Richmond was boxes at $75, which is les The council decided to contract for about $500 less. The to furnish additional than what the onal boxes to mond furnishes add In the report of the fire committee of the Janesville council it was stated that the committee had some time ngo written to the chief engineer of the tire depart- ment of Council Blufts mond system and received the reply tha ‘it was no good, and advising the not to try it. the only perfect system. bout the Rich- t e He thought the Gamewell hed statement, togethor en report of the visitors, This publ A Beg “hief Templeton emphaticaily denies having received any such letter of in- uiry, and denies with equal strength that he ever made such response, and in fact asserts that he had never written any letter to anyone giving his opinion of the sys m or its workings. The committee must have written to the ex-chief of the department, Pat Lacy, for he is an open enemy of the Richmond and the opinion expressed 18 just what he entertains. The two visiting aldermen from Wis- consin were shown around the city by Mr. Lacy, and whatever they recei of the Richmond they got largely from him. Mayor Groneweg was with them alsoin a circuit of the city. e impressions ved concerning the workings But one test was made, so far as known, and this was box 14. This box was pulled and came in all right, the fire department respond- ing promptly. n a police call but it did not seem to ‘I'he mayor tried to turn work, and Bradley, the superintendent ot the fire alarm, coming up, he turned in the volice call without any difliculty, 1t was then discovered that the mayor had turned his key the wrong way, not un- derstanding how to turn in a police call. The visitors seemed satistied and the mi\for acknowledged his mistake, ef Templeton says he had no con- versation with the visitors to any extent, and certainly did not intend to convey the impression that the Richmond was not working all_right. He says he only saw Alderman Thoroughgood for a few Mr. Thoroughgood came into his cigar factory to sell him some boxes, he being a manufacturer, nnd having several customers here, among them Mr. Templeton. The visitor talked business, and there wasonly a casual reference made to the alarm. Templeton asked him how he found things and the visitor replied that they pulled one box and it but that the police alarm did not, but that was because the mayor did not understand how to turn the xey. As s &enerllly known there has been a hot and steady fight over the system since 1t was introduced here, and there are so many who do not have faith in its workings that it is almost impossible for it to give satisfaction. Added to this is the natural distrust of nnything which has not had time to fully establish its reputation for reliability, Then there have been troubles in getting the system in and getting it to work smoothly. With delays and criticisms and a general lack of faith the system is still held here 1n an experimental condition, but Chief Tem- pleton and others familiar with the de- tails say it has never failed in time of need; and that they are willing and anx- ious to have any trial of it made at any time. The chief offers any visitors or officinls the chance to goout and pull any box at any time and thus see if the the alarm does not work satisfactorily. He seems to be strongly 1nclined to the belief that the Richmond system is all right, and hence protests against being put before the public as pronouncing it as “no good."” The two aldermen who visited this city seem to have raised a astorm all around. On reaching home they pre- sented o bill of $100 for their expenses. ‘The bill was allowed by the council, but the citizens of that charming little place are very cautious and economical, and they went to figuring. They found that it cost $19 adayto each alderman to thus make the trip. There is a howl now for an itemized bill, and an intimation that the aldermen who voted for its al- lowance ary liable to a fine of $50 each. Alderman Thoroughgood is reported as saying that the trip cost him more money than he received; that while absent he had 1o incur some extra expense in order to in part repay the officials for the kind manaer in which they were received and shown around. FRELLD The Union Pacific and the Bluffs, The visit of the Union Pacific otficials to this side of the river was attended with the usual amount of mystery, but the purposes are pow definitely an- nounced. They have decided to begin work on the Tenth avenue route as soon as they can secure the necessary lots, most of which have already been pur- chased. The ordinance under which they sccure the right of way provides that they mast have the track down and the depot built by the 81st of Decomber, They intend to comply 1n that respect, and hence work will necessarily com- mence very soon. I'he new freight depot is to be located on the southwest corner of Tenth avenue and Sixth street, just back of what 1s known as the shot tower, or nail works. As soon as_completed that will be put in operation for the re- ceiving and shipping of freights, and the passenger business will be continued st the Broadway dummy depot. ‘I'here are many inquiries as to how the new bridge is to be operated. The rail- way managers (hemselves are undecided, They will have to experiment somewhat before making permanent arrangements. It is reported that when the bridge 13 completed the company will throw open the wagon and foot ways for free use by the public for thirty days, so as to deter mine, if possible, as to what the probable traflic will bo. The difficulties attending the operating of the new bridge are nu- merous. It is not fully demonstrated yet whether many teams can be driven across with safety, even 1f trains are not on the bridge at the same time. The chief doubts arise, however, concerniug the amount of traflic which the company can get for its wagon part of the bridge, There are no paved streets leading to the new bridge, and teams can hardly draw heavy loads through the mud so long a distance. This can only be determined by actual trial for a period of several months, by which time 1t will become evident how many people want to avail themselves of this way of getting cross the river. During this experimental period the ferry cars will continue to run, and the public will be given & chance to show whether the perference is for going over in ferry cars. or driving across the bridge. The operation of the bridge will depend largely on the result as shown by this sort of a test of the public pulse. The double track will be ready for operation by the 1st of October. The wagon ways and approaches will be completed by the middle of October. As 8oon as possible after the completion of the double tracks there will be several more ferry trains put on, so as to better accommodate the rush of teams, and the better to test the question as to whether drivers prefer to cross with their teams by the ferry train, or by the wagon way. ——— Money to loan.

The gas ordinances referred to the commuttee of the whole council, have not been acted upon yet in committee, and in consequence cannot come up at to- night’s meeting of the council. It is possible that another ordinance may be presented for reference, while it is very probable that one of the ordinances already in will ba amended so as to afford still cheaper gas, but this will not take place to-night, as those interested are not m the city. It 18 suggested that the mayor, when he calls the committee of the whole together also notify those in- terested in the different ordinances be- fore the committee, so they may have representatives present. In such case the notification should be sent out at least threc days previous to such meet- ing. ——— The Paving Contract.

In this case the plaintiff endeavors to re cover damages for the loss of a valuable horse. The horse was coming dowu Park avenue, and just as he turned into Pierce street shpnu and broke his leg, so that he had to be shot. The horse was valued at $2,000, and the plaintiff claims that the bad condition of the street was the cause of the accident. The case was tried be- fore a jury, but the jury disagreed.
