Two Ways of Keeping Books—Their Accounts Referred toa Committee. Brennan & Co., the city hall contractors, presented their account to the council on Tuesday night and it is as follows: Contract price of work. . ‘Work in an unfinished s ‘mate of what it would require to complete contract.............. 5 Balance due on contract proper.. Bill for extra work Interest...... “en “48.000 in excess of the contract price. The contract provided that the basement was to be com- pleted up to the first floor, but Brennan Co.’s estimate of 83,820, as above, is to com- Yluw the walls only to the water table. To ulfill the contract to the letter the following expenditures would be necessary : ‘Water table, iron girders and brick arches of first floor.

The Michigan Central does not as- sume the ownership of Niagara Falls, but it does offer to its passengers from its station at Falls View, the grandest and most comprehensive spectacle that the great cataract affords. It is the only road that runs directly by the fulls, and from this point all parts of the cataract, the “%J rapidsabove and the boiling caldron below, are in full view. At this season, when the cliffs are hun, with fiautic iclcles, and the trees an shrubbery covered with curious forma~- tions of frozen spray, the scene reaches, in the lnnflflge of ayard Taylor, “the climax of beauty.” —————— Marriage of H. O. Devries. ‘Wednesday night were oslemnized the nuptials of Mr. H. O, Devries and Miss Flora Cotner, at the Christian church, corner of Twentieth street and Capitol avenue. The altar was beautifully decorated with Easter lilies, azalas, hyacinths and smilax festoons. The ceremcny was performed by Rev. Joseph Z. Briscoe, of Lincoln, in a beautiful and impressive manner. The pair were at- tended to the altar by Misses Briscoe, Mamie Devries and Ella Reed, and Messrs,, Cotner Devries and Davenport. From Uz/ church the wedding party went immediately to the Burlington depot, where the happy couple took the 8 o'clock train for Denver for a trip of several weeks. The contracting parties are well known in Omaha, where they have lived for several years. Mr. Devries is vice president of the Gate City Land company and is one of Oma- ha's most energetic and deservedly esteemed young men, while Miss Cotner is a lady in every way fitted to make a true helpmeet. ‘The best wishes of a host of friends attend the pair in their new relations. —_— Colgate's Sachet Powders, eliotrope, Jockey Club, and Cashmere uqust retai cheh- delicate fragrance longer than ot! __..___ A Challenge.
