For several days past Christ Jacobson, em- ployed by A. J. Mandel, has been danger- ously ill, but he is now recovering slowly. The contracts for the county printing, stationdry, building bridfnu and_furnishing general supplies will be let by the board of supervisors to-day. 1da Washington's place was raided by the police about 9 o'clock last evening and two of the inmates, including Ida herself, were ar- Manager. The great social event this week is the re- ception of President and Mrs. MacConnell at the club rooms this cvening. The affair promises to be both elegant and enjoyable. The Apollo club: concert at the opera house to-morrow evening will be a musical t indeed. If sufficicnt appreciation i8 shown by the patronage, other choice concerts will follow during the season. A citizen suggests that the street railw: company should enlas its barns so as to ac- commodate its street scraper. This was left on Pearl street last night to the great annoyance of travelers, Arthur Smith, son 6f Peter Smith, who re- sides at 523 Main street, was the holder of the lucky ticket which drew the organ at the Mueller Music compuny's prize distribution. The instrument was delivered to him yester. day. The proprictors of the hardw. the city have agreed to close business during the winter months at 6 o'clock in the evening, The claim is made, and it is a good one, that the trade after that hour does not pay the expense incident to keeping open. William Lewis has a e sleigh fitted up finely for taking out partics of from fifteen to twenty persons. Those desiring accommoda- tions of this sort can find no better, and should leave their orders at Lewis' ofice, at Moore & Kiplinger's, 419 Broadway, or call him up by telephone, The estate of the late Stephen Dunn was found to be in unusual condition, there being but one claim against it, and that for a little over $1. This was paid at once, leaving the estate clear, u pregy good quantity. Mr. Dunn was very prompt and carcful in his business matters and never allowed bills to be hovering about. P. C. Miller has adaed one to the line of elegant delivery wagons which are now seen daily upon the strects. The improvement is this class of veh en very marked here during the d Council Bluffs shows up well in this r making quite a metropolitan appearance. The new one of Mr, Miller’s is one of the best. Some changes have been made in the fire department in order to cquip the new truck. There are now twelve full paid men, pesides the “call” men. Council Bluffs can go on record as having the best fire protection,with the least number of men, of any city of * 8ize in the country, As stores of their places of 800N a8 the w ladder force will handling their appa In connecction with St. Paul's church an organization for the young girls has been formed, to be known as the St. Agnes guild. The object is o instruct the members in the confirmation exercises of the church, the requirements of church members, and for the urpose of doing general church work. Mrs. oselyn is chosen as warden of the guild, with Miss Frankie Daily secretury, and Miss Nellie Haldane treasurer. There has been some wondering why the ‘weather signal flags remained unc hanged for about a week. One of the boys in the office 'was asked if they didn't get any more re- ports: “Oh, yes; we got the reports all Tight, but it's been too awfully cold to raise the windows and hang the flags out. It chilled the rooms too much.” Now that it has moderated somewhat the flags are changed occasionally. Ex-Coroner Faul has been hunting up the relatives of the unfortunate Kelley, who was recently killed by a falling bluff. He received word from Stuart Ia., that Kelley had for- merly worked there and that he had relatives living in Peoria. Mr. Faul wrote there and has received a letter from an uncle of Kelley, ‘who says that if identification is made com- plete he will see to it that the body is taken up and carried to Peoria for final interment. There is more soft coal being burned in Council Bluffs than in any previous season. Many who have heretofore used hard coal to some extent have abandoned it enti The price of coal, §11.50 a ton, makes ec (umm) necessary. It is difficult to see, however, how it is any economy for the county to usé soft coal in heating the new court house, for the building is having its exterior smoked up in @ manner which causes more damage than the extra price of hard coal. Mayor Rohrer is the fourth mayor sworn in during the present term. Colonel Chap- man was elected for two years, but had served but a short time when death took him hence. ThenJ. F. Evans was chosen to fill the vacancy until the people could elect a mayor, at which election Mayor Groneweg was chosen. Now he has resigned and M. F. Robrer is called upon to fill the vacancy. He will probably. hold until the spring elec- tion, and there is a strong probability of the voters then insisting on his continuing. Sometime during the month of June, 1887, a young girl left her home in a town just east ol the eity and come to Council Bluffs to seek mployment. Her parents were fairly well- oand eminently respectable, and pro- w-ml against this move, but consented at thnuppushlg that a few weeks experience n'l is kind would satisfy the child (for she was but sixteen years of age), and that she would return home. Arriving here she ap- phed for work at one of the hotels of the city. After working until October she told her em- ployer she was going to learn the barber trade in one of the shops of the city. She left the hotel and little was known' of her movements until her parents appeared here yesterday and took their daughter home with them. The affair has created some street gossip, but in the interest of all parties con- cerned as little publicity as possible should be given the matter, 1 u few practice drills in us.

Increase and Progress Mark the Year's Record—Larger Rooms Asked For —The Youthful Democrats— Street Car Accident. About the Union Depot. Little has been heard of late about the union depot project. It is understood that most of the Jand required has been secured, and it remains for the roads centering here 10 co-operate in the enterprise, and push it to completion. This scems & very opportunc time for such a move. There is not a local depot in this city worthy of a good country station, unless it be the Milwauke & Paul, and even that is not in keeping with the size and importance of Council Bluffs, It is a neat httle depot, and would answer well for some country town, or for some su burban station. Most of the depots are old shells, a dlsgrace to the companies which oc cupy them, a shame to the cities in which they are located. Lack of local de- pots has been patiently borne, because of the belief that ere long a_grand union depot, centrally located, would be built. It is un- tood that all the companies with two ex- ceptions, are heartily in favor of building an up-town union depot. and the delay is said to be owing to the backwardness of these two companies, who do not openly oppose it, but are not enthusiastic enough to hurry. The citizens who belong to the union depot com- ny should get their proding stick in haud and stir a little life into those who are hang- ing back on the pre st The Public Library.

A horse belonging to the street car com- pany was disabled yesterday afternoon at the sixth siding in front of the Western house on upper Broadway. Car No. 4 going cast was considerably behind time, and the dri was trying to make it up. No. 2, westbound, was waiting on the siding and as the other ap- proached the horse attached to it, doubtless excited by its hard run, swerved to the left and struck head first against the waiting car. The momentum of the moving car was so great that when it struck the horse it com- pluuv doubled him up and threw both cars from the track. As a spectator expressed it, The horse was shut up like a jackknife.” Dr. Cady was called to attend the animal and see if its back was broken, us seemed proba- ble. It was removed on a stone boat to the company’s stables and may recover. The speed with which the car was driven just fore the accident was so great as to attract attention. The horse was running and many supposed thiat the driver was unu’ ble to control him. Fortunately no passen- gers were injured. It looks as though a little interference by the police would prevent o repetition of such an offense, e For best quality coal and wood, on Gleason, 26 Pearl street. S Young Democracy.

A surprising view is had from the windows of this unfinished royal retreat.
