This serves a double purpose. It is a check on the electric light company, and it necessi- tates the policcmen keeping awake all night.

Mayor Rohrer requests the citizens to use salt frecly upon the ice upon the sidewalks in front of their residences and business houses. The walks about Council Bluffs were never in a more slippery condition, but the most treach- ous of all are the walks about the park and in front of the new court house. The authorities who have these build- ings under their control, and who are backed by the public treasury, should set the example in the salt business. Ll Personal Paragraphs. Hon. George F.

Monday evening a well dressed stranger entered the candy store of Is- aac Blank at the corner of Sixth street and Broadway, and ordered a half dol- lar's worth of candy. It was wrapped up for him and he put a piece in his mouth, but before he could pay for it he was taken with a violent fit of cough- ing,and for o moment it seemed as though he would strangle. He went to the door to get some fresh aiv and the coughing gradually lessened. Mr. Blank went out to see how he was getting along and found that he had gotten along so well that he was clear out of sight. When the peanut aund candy vender realized the neat little game that had been played on him, his dan- der began to “riz” and for the remain- derof the evening the maddest man in the city was dancing around in that lit- tle Broadwayjpeanut stand. This is the latest vesurrection of the confidence man, whose game changes with every phase of the moon. 1f he continues his work in the Bluffs much longer the av- erage business man will be afeaid to tru st his own brother and will not dare to sign his own name for fear it might develope into a forgery. e C The Central drug x management of J.

Yesterday afternoon a certain justice of the peace in this city was waited on by a young colored man. The fact, in itself, is not peculiar but the tale he un- folded to the legal functionary was de- cidedly out of the ordinary run of cases. It was substantially as follows: Several months ago his sister entered the em- ploy and went to work for a certain business man of this city. The girl was young. (twenty-two) and comely, albeit of the black-and-tan order. Some three months ago the employer hired a_house near Foster's green house to which his domestic was taken, also a woman to at- tend her in her expected illness, Here a child was born **of poor but honest (?) parents.” At the time of her removal to this place she assumed the name of a colored man, living near the city and on her recov nt to live with him, but without 1g performed the usual legal preliminary to make such an act lawful. The brother said he was seeking to make the father of the ¢hild own his act und wanted the help of the law, but his sister refused to appear against her seducer. It is said that this is not the first case of this kind with which this man has had connection: that in the others he has been most liberal in his expenditure of cash to prevent wosecution. The young protector of hi er's good name, it_appears, da not protest against her present course of living, and in_the light of the pre- viously claimed facts, it certainly looks like a repitition of the old saw, **Money mukes the mare go.” - Money to loan. Cooper & Judson. - - Guns of all kinds at Odell & Bryant's, 504 i The above is the title of a decidedly interesting volume which can be found at D. W. Bushnell It is not only a work, in that it is fresh from the s, but is as truly new in the thoughts and in the manner of presentation. It is a romance of exceeding interest, and yet the chief object is not merely to charm the reader, but to give intelli- gent answers to such practical queries as why are we here, what is our duty, what shall be our destin The reason- ing is 5o child-like as not to break down the interest of the romance, and yet so strongly logical as to give much faction to the student of philosophy. The work promises to become very popuiar, and is already attracting much atten- tion. The using of romance for the purpose of impressing great truths has often been tried, but generally results in & weakening of either one or the other of the two leading features of such volumes. This seems to by xeeption, hoth romance and r ing strong, and so woven together as to hold the interest of the reader closely ng impressions. The volume has over three hundred pages, is attractively printed and bound and is riced at $2. "It is published by J. Thompson Gill, manager C. & B.

Squire, No. 202 Story street, was ablaze with light and the merry voices of happy young folks gave ample evi- dence of the gayety and enjoyment within. The occasion was a party given in honor of the thirteenth birthday of Miss Bessie Squire, and a large number of her young” mates had assembled to offer their congratulations and to pre- sent her with several beautiful tokens of esteem and friendship. The hours were passed in dancing, and about 8 o'clock the party was re- galed with delightful refreshments served by a volunteer force of the young gentlemen, Everything blended hap- pily together, and pleasure held full sway. After a highly eni’o‘vnble even- ing ull were treated to a sleigh ride, in a four-horse open sleigh, all over the city and adjacent country. At a late hour the pleasure seekers were left at their respective homes, after an even- ing that will be long remembered b; them, both for its happy features, an for the cordiality and winning hospi- tality of their charming little hostess. L LD Ages of Well Known Men. Avgonant: Beginning his eighty- third year, M. Ferdinand de Lesseps can look around and see but very few men of anything like equal eminence he.

Frigntfal Monstrosities Found in Cali- fornia and Mexico. ““The Gila monster is almost as thick as your leg and about eighteen or twenty inches long." said'a naturalist toa Sun Francisco correspondent the other day. It has a head which is pretty near all mouth, and opens clear back 10 its ears. The head is about as big as half of a cigar box, set with little, vicious eyes, and the mouth is powerfully muscled and set with fofir'sharp fangs and a lot of grinders. The color of the monstor is reddish, with brown spots. It has a blunt tail, as nearly all poisonous liz- gavds hove, J found these miimters liv- ing in the hot hand. Th y are not good to fool with, and a man who is in the Gila monster business must know what he is about. One day last June I pulled up from the hot desert to a little ranch ou the Colorado river. The man who owned the place had a pet Gila monster which he kept ina barrel. He stooped down to got himout to show him to me and some friends of his who were there, and the monster shut down on_his thumb. He gripped it so tight in his awful mouth which was like a vise, that his jaws ha to be pried open with an iron bar. The man only lived a few hours and died in terrible spasms. Another man bitten while I was down there, has ever been since paralyzed in the side. Hardly anybody ever gets over a bite from this terrible animal. Now, a tarantula makes a bad sore, but it doesn’t kill a man. I have got awake frequently in the morning, while camping out, and found tarantulas curled up on the edge of my blanket. They do that to keep warm, but if you are careful about dis- turbing them they won't bite you. *The horrible reptile called the vina- groom by the Mexicahs and meaning ‘smelling like vinegar,” ranks next to the Gila monste ious and poison- ous characterist The vinagroom (thelepholus excubiter), is found 1n the Organ mountains. There is nothing like it butitself. Ttis a kind of com- }mund of scorpion, lobster and three or our kindred animals, 1t is four or five inches long with long, strout claws, and is a mottled brown color. “Talking about strange features of animal lije we have on the Mojave des- ert a turtle that eats grass. It lives in holes in the sand, which it makes to es- cape the intense heat of the sun You may take astick and gel them out. The are the Xerobates Agu i, just lately named for the great naturalist, a very pretty turtle that gets on good feeding to be about ten inces long and to weigh six oreight pounds, A woman down on the desert last summer where 1 had cight or ten of them in an open pen which she was fattening to cat. The ate grass like horses. When these turtles got fat, as they quickly do on grass, they beat all the frogs or roast turkey you ever ate. An ordinary one of these turtles is worth $3 or $4.” Roadsthat Are Being "'F. -Tracked ' New York Herald: The number of four-tracked roads is being iner Not many mon ths since the New York Central was the only railroad in the country that had four tracks and ran passenger and freight business o rate rails. The Pennsylvania railvoad is now completing two additional tracks be- tween Jersey City and Philadelphia. portions of the new tracks are already in use, and it 18 veported that the entive line will be operated in a few months. The New York, New Haven & Hart- ford comes next. On the section be- tween New Rochelle Junction and Port, Chester four tracks have been laid and are nearly ready for use between New Rochelle Junction and Mamaroneck. From the grand central depot to New Rochelle Junction is thirteen miles, With ten miles now under way, twenty- three out of the séventy-three miles be- tween New York and New Haven will be provided for, and the fifty miles re- maining will be begun as soon as the section now under way is completed. As fast as the four tracks are laid the crossidgs are changed from grade and made either under or overthe roads and streets. It is the intention of the com- pany to abolish grade crossing on its entire line. Tnder the Conuecticut law towns are compelled to pay one half the expense of changing grades at the crossings. Thereis a strong demand for an extra session of the legislature to alter this law so as to throw the whole expense on the railroad company. From the Grand Central depot to Woodlawn Junction the New York,New Haven & Hartford trains run on the Harlem tracks. Between Mamaroneck and Port Chester the line is being struighwued and grades are being re- duced. It is calculated that between twenty and thirty miles will be saved in the running time between New York and New Haven when the curves are taken out, gradesimproved and the four tracks are completed. This road has the highest per cent of passenger to freight traffic of any line inthe country. Its receipts from passengers in 1886 were 84,677,040.91, while the receipts from freight were but $2,795,240.72. ———— The most remarkable cures of scrofula on record have been accomplished by Hood'’s Sarsaparilla, Try it.

There cannot be a sexual impulse in the mat- ter for that would not make old and young howl together. I have had op- portunities to hear this howling a great many times, and to observe the howlers from a very close vicinity, Every time there sat an old male up in a tree, sup- vorting himeself on his fore feet and having his long tail, naked of hair on the inside for about nine inches from the end, black and smooth as a hand, wrapped around a limb, while other males, females and young sat beneath him in a variety of positions. All at once the old fellow would set up a hor- rible rattling ‘‘Rochu, rochu,” which, after five or six repetitions, passed into abellowing in which the others would join and which was loud enough tomake one afraid of losing his hearing. s0 loud that it can be heard on still nights two leagues off, and it lasts for about ten minutes and then subsides. The roar of the tigers which troubled Pichegru and his companions so much on their flight from Cayenne to Suvi- nam was nothing else than the howling of these apes, which might well fill one hearing it for the first time, and not knowing that it came from harmless monkeys, with fright. The howling ape is sluggish and melancholy. and jumps only when it is pursued, while ¢ * times it elimbs deliberately among always holding itself by When captured young it becomes tame and confiding, aid will play with cats and dogs, but is usually qui if the person to whom it isattached away, it indulges in a continual rattling and highly unpleasant ery, I could v § «d in raising one of them. They have a peculiarly un- pleasant odor, by which one can tell when he is near one. Like all the apes, they bring only one young intothe world at a time.
