IT WAS A GREAT SUCCESS. The Wealth, Youth and Beauty of the Bluffs in Omaha. A GRAND CARNWAL ON THE ICE. Two Very Pecualiar Stories About the Disappearance of a Diamond— How Miss Freeman Looks— Other City News, The Bluffs Out on a Ride. At exactly 1:30 o’clock yesterday afternoon ler of the Council Bluffs sleighing appeared at the head of the Eleventh viaduct. As the procession came down the inclfned roadway withthe sun shining brightly on the glistening snow and gorgeous plumage of prancing steeds, the sight from a distence was a novel and one. The first cutter, containing Major T. S. Clarkson, grand marshal of the parade, reached Farnam street at pre cisely 1:34 o'clock. Then followed a host of double and triple-scated sleighs ith gentlemen and ladies, Th in line drawn by of the equipage nted the inventi There were many white but owing to the manner in pped up it was im possible for the rey o discover a single “red headed” girl.

John M. Baldwin, Esq., of Council Bluffs, referred to lowa as u prohibitory state, and ssely intimated that he wished he could v as much for Nebraska. Omaha, in his estimation, was a great and growing city and would some day be as big Chicago, He spoke-of the necessity of better facilitios for communication between this city and Council Bluffs, and assured his hearers that if the present © under construction did not fill the bill they would put up half a dozen until they would.

Mr. MacMurphy responded for South Omaba in a cheerful and instructive speech of several minutes’ durati At the conclusion of the speech-making the band struck up a lively air and the assem- blage dispersed, some to the banquet nall, others to the armory to indulge in the merry ce, aud others to the toboggan slide of amuscment und che 1 presided over the refreshme room, and a toothsome and substantial lunch was served to nearly 100 people, AT THE ARMOIY "hrough the kindness of the Omaha guards their armory was used for t dancing, and from 3 o'clock until 6 the foor was filled with dancers.

Tompkins, the man charged with stealing a valuable diamond ring from Miss Kate Kennedy, 122 North Fifteenth street, was arralgnedfbeforeJudge Berka yesterday worning, but pleading not guilty, had his Jagainst Be other postponement was asked, Tompkins not being prepared for trial. He said to a Be reporter that he had been “kecping company® with Miss Kennedy for two years, and that they had often changed rings for days at u time. He said that on the evening in question he borrowed her ring and went home with it. When he retired for the night the stone—which is a costly gem was in the ring, but upon arising in the morning it was missing. He knew, however, that the diamond must be inthe room, but curcful search failed to reveal its presence He then told the Janitress in charge of th room that she must preserve the sweepings and carefully look them over, and that if she found the stone he wounld reward her. He then sent the empty ring back to Miss Kenuedy with the information that he had lost the setting. She discredited this story, however, and informed a BEE man that upon examing the ring she could plainly sce that the diamond had been taken from the ring by means of some in- strument, as the clanips we Il bent back in a way that could only have been accom- plished purposely. She sent for Tompking and told him that she thought he had appro- priated the stone, and advised him to return ce. This he failed to do. She sent rssenger boys to him on several different sions, but they invariably returned empty-han “1 finally concluded,” added Miss Kennedy, “that the gentleman intended to steal my diamond, and & resort to the law was all that was left for me. 1 had him ar- rested and understand the stone was found upon him, he claiming that the junitress had removed it and he meant. to restore it to me." From the appearance of things it looks as if Mr. Tompkins had gotten himself into a v bad box, but he may be able to exon- erate himself. THAT ICE BOX STORY.

Wyoming's Convicts are tained in Joliet. Some time ago, the Bee unnounced that at the lust session of the Illinois legislature, a law was passed preventing the management of the penitentiary of that state from recciv ing for earc of convicts from other states or itories. Wyoming at the time, was board ing its couvicts ut the penitentias tion, and the commission for the te zarding the disposal of o the state would r 1o more of Wyoming's convicts, but those who were then behind the walls, would be permitted to serve their terms. — Luke Murrin, of Chey- enne, one of the commissioners, went o it admission for the Wy- to th penitentiary but the request was denied on the ground of lack of room, Mr. Murrin came into town last night and states that the Illinois law, restricting the penitentiary of that state from_accommodat- ing the convicts of others, had been assailed and rendered void, and as a conseqgence, t plice ut dolict was now open toWrisoners from all ‘places which were disposed to pay for them. Since the passage of the law in question Wyoming's conviets at great ex- pense and trouble have been confined in in- secure county juils, and the experiment has not been a s ione. The setting aside of the law hus been favorably received and Wyoming sent its first batch of prisoners in many months to the Joliet penitentiary a couple of days ago, and Mr. Murrin is now on his way to the same place to make formal provisions for their detention and care. s A Fugitive From Justice. William Cheswick was run fin adrunk. He said he lived in Lincoln ar was a ralroader. Shortly after his arrest the chief of police received a telegram from the Capital eity, asking that a man by the above name be locked up and arrested, as Le was winted there.

The Cable Tramway Company's Views on These Subjects. The Bek has already given its readors the views of Superintendent Smith of the Horse | railway company. with respect to the relative rights to precedence of that and the tramway companies in the crossings of strects, In those views it was held that because the horse car line was the first one constructed in the city it had priovity in crossing strects the cars of the tramway company. Yesterday a Bee reporter questioned Messrs, Johinson, Rustin and Webster, of the latter corporation, and all of these gentlemen scouted Mr. Smith's views. They claimed they were ridiculous, unusual and impracti cable. They held no street railway company could have the right of way any more than s8, truck or drayman, at a street in- could have right of wa) another. It was simply a question of expediency, eircumstances and discretio < City, so in St. Louis, so in_ Chicago, 8o everywhere, “In Kansas City,” said Captain Rustin, “the question as to which road is the older one is never raised. On a level plam, when cars are approaching the same interscetion, the one which at its normal speed has mude the ereatest advance toward the middle of the tersection is universally accorded the right of way, the other lessening its speed, or, if necessary, coming to a stand.
