Scanlon has ordered o dnll of Bluffs Division No. 27 Uniform Rank K. of P., this evening. The social to be given by the Unity guild at Mrs. Runyan’s Friday evening promises to be an enjoyable occasion and all are invited to purticipate. In moving the safe of the county re- corder into its new quarters it was found that the opening in the buildin ‘was not large enough to admit it, an the window was called into requisition. Through this the safe was passed to its present and future quarters. Tho attention of the readers of the BEE is called to the new add of P. C. Deval who presents the advantages of bis specialties in stoves. Mr. Deval is one of the oldest in business in the city and his stock is of the latest styles and patterns. He offers bargains. ‘William Western, a switchman in the Northwestern yards, had the third finger of his left hand badly mashed Tuesday while making a coupling. Dr. Lacey attended to the injured member, and thought at first that it would have 1o be amputated,but yesterday concluded that it might be saved. = There was a lorge audience at the opera house last evening to hear the ra ‘‘Erminie,” as presented by W. . Carleton’s company. The music was very good and the costumes elegant. The audience showed its appreciation in hearty applause, and the company were compelled to respond to several encores. Fred Herman has returned with Mr. Geise from Chattanooga, where they have been looking after the contracts for the new brewery Mr. Geise is to build there. The work on some of these buildings has already commenced, and others are to be started at once. The plant will reach $100,000 in value before completed. A communication from Senator Grone- weg was received in the city yesterday in regard to the firemen’s relief bill now pending before the legislature. Mr. Groneweg stated that a few strong ctitions would do_much to help the gill, and Alderman Lacy circulated a petition in favor of the bill during the afternoon and secured many signers. It was forwarded to Des Moines last night. Some of the political opponents of Dr. Bellinger are trytng to make capital against his candidacy for the council by claiming that he is resisting the pay- ment of his paving tax. The factis that Dr. Bellinger difi think at one time of contesting the validity of the tax as assessed against his property, but con- cluding that improvements must not be retarded, he abandoned any such con- test and has not any suit against the city. All members of Council Bluffs lodge. No. 49, 1. 0. O. F., are requested to meet at their hall at 7:30 o’clock sharp, to-morrow evening, for the purpose of attending the funeral of our late brother, A. G. Loomer. Services will be held at his late residence, 919 Ave- nue H., at 8 o’clock, and the remains will be escorted to the Northwestern depot. The members of Hawkeye and Humbold lodges are invited to partici- pate. By order of the U. G. The funeral of the late Robert Hunt- ington took place at 1:30 o’clock yester- donx) afternoon from his late residence, 104 Broadway, Rev. Mr. Teny of the Mormon church officiating. A large number of friends attended the services, which were very impressive. The floral offerings were profuse and ele- Ent. The pall bearers were John no, F. B. Gardiner, J. R. Bell, E. Rosch, William Arnd and John Clausen. The remains were interred in the Fair- view cemetery. The squabble for the democratic nomination as city marshal has re- sulted in favorof the present incumbent, Marshal Guanella. This is a squelcher on O’Brien who has been working zealously, and using every possible means to grab the prize. It was all lanned that if the fight grew so hot as jeopardize the interests of the part, anew man should be nominated, an both Guanella and O’Brien droned. The one on whom they were to unite is said to be none other than Dan Farrell. who for so long was sheriff of Mills county. He would have made an ex- cellent marshal, if he would have ac- cepted. —_—— One thousand head of one, two and three-year-old steers for sale, Will give credit to reliable parties. Enquire o A. J.

Judge Carson was among the attentive listeners to Judge Loofbourow’s charge to the jury in the Coffman case. Frank Shinn, the Carson attorney, was in the city yesterday and took a tour of inspection through the new court house. He moved into this county just thirty years ago next Sunday. The contrast between then and now struck him forcibly as he gazed upon the beau- ties of the new structure. Thirty years ago there was an old cottonwa log court house. The jail was also of cotton- Wi and the common way of speaking of jlihng & man was that ‘*he was in the cottonwood.” The present site of the aourt house was then nothing but a sun- ower field. e The Coffman Case. In the district court yesterday most of the time was taken in the arguments of the Coffman case. Colonel Daily closed the delense at noon, and after dinner Mr. Ware began the concluding argu ment for the prosecution. He spoke for nearly two hours, closing shortly before 4 o'clock. The charge of the judge was about fifteen minutes long, very clear and very fair. It was shortly after 4 o'cleck when the jury retired to the upper chamber, which is the first time that room has been occupied. At a late hour last night the jury was still out, and no prospects of an early agreement upon a verdict. P —— The Boys In Blue. The preparations for the presentation of *The Union Spy” are still going quietly forward. The cast embraces the entire force of Company A, Fifth Regi- ment, I. N. G., and several outsiders. Among the incidents introduced with realistic effect are: Firing on Fort Sumpter; recruiting for the war; awk- ward squad drill; camp scenes; bivouac by night; contraband dange; the picket post; battle scenes; gun boat ngh‘l; Andersonville prison; captures; escapes; rescues, ete. 'he boys hope to realize # snug little sum Irom it,and it now looks as though ™ they will meet with Bood success, 4 A THE DEMOCRATIC ~ DOINGS. Mayor Rohrer Unanimously. Re- nominated For a Long Term. THE CITY MARSHALSHIP FIGHT Strikers Expecting New Moves—The Coffman Case Ends—A Brakeman Killed—A Musical Treat—Per- sonal and Otherwise. The Democratic Ticket, The democratic city convention con- vened in the Salvation army barracks yesterday afternoon at 2 o’clock. For an hour previous to the opening the would-be candidates for the various offices were busy among the delegates evidently clinching the work done dur- ing the previous days. Reports were frequent that attempts had been made to “fix” this delegate or that. Proxys were quoted at $50,and broad hints were made that thise sum had been offered delegates to support certain men for the marshalship. At the hour named Chairman Holmes, of the city central committee, called the convention to order. On motion the Hon. Dan A. Farrell was made chair- man and Ira F. Hendricks secretary of the convention. The following committee on creden- tials, one from each ward, was selected: First, B. F. Connor; Second, Dean F. Eicher; Third, Pat Lacy; Fourth, D. E.

The same Sabbath-like stillness that has prevailed about the Kansas City roundhouse since the beginning of the strike, was noticeable yesterday. No- tices were posted conspicuously about the premises forbidding all persons not in the employ of the company from trespassing, and also General Manager Merrill’s order in regard to the strikers going hack to work. Master Mechanic Bridenstein informed a BEE reporter that the strikers were a very gentle- manly set of men and that there was no danger whatever of their doing any damage to the property of the company, but the precautions were taken to fiurd against any mischief that might be at- tempted by tramps or other outsiders. One switch engine was busy in the yards and five more were locked up in the roundhouse, only one of them being fired up, that being No. 6, to take out the evening passenger. The incoming morning train, due at 9:85, did not ar- rive until 3:30, nearly six hours late, No. 8, the early morning train re- cently put on, has been abandoned, to- gether with the fiyer. Deputy Marshal Clough hovered about the yards, but his official duties were not Very heavy. There are some whisperings heard of possible trouble on some of the other lines centering here. There is a large quantity of freight which has been con- signed to the Chicago, Burlington & Quiney, and much of this has been thrown on to sidetracks as ‘‘scab” freight, as it 1s called. It is declared that if orders are received to move this freight there will be a collision at once, which will lea® to a rescinding of such an order or else the men will refuse to work, Same of the engineers are looking for a strike on the Northwestern, They say that the policy of that rond has been to underpay the enginears. The road claims to pay full wages after three years’ service, but it is claimed that very soon after an engineer reaches full ay something is apt to ha n b 'Jvhivh he |a“dlumls&d, and Er:plm‘(}; filled by raising a fireman, and paying him the low wages for the first year, then gradually increase it, and then let him jump off as did his predecessor, It is expected that the issue of doing away with all classifications of this sort will be forced. It has already been sub- mitted and a decision 18 uwaited. Pubshbeitr~Suibatin Sheafe loans money on real estate. —— Bargains in houses and lots on small cash payment. Johnston & Van Patten, 88 Main street. ——— Took a Tumble. Robert T. Fair, a pump and wind mill dealer, fell from the Indian Creek bridge Tuesday evening while return- ing home from a trip down town. Ac- cording to his own version of the affair he must have been in a state of partial intoxication, as he states that he met a couple of ladies whom he did nbt know and whom he saluted with ‘‘Good even- lnE." The next thing he knew he was taking a rapid_ flight through space, and soon landed on terra firma in so violent a manner as to completely use him up. A colored man who saw him fall procured assistance, and the injured man was taken to his home, 274 Har- mony street. Dr. Lacy was summoned and found that the victim had two ribs broken, and & gash in his scalp about three inches long. The injuries were patched and Fair is getting along as well as could be expected. There was some talk yesterday of a suit for damages being brought against the city, and Chief of Police Mullen called on the injured party to see whether there was any truth in the report. The place where the accident oc- curred is entirely unprotected by any railing. There iaa foot walk on the west side of the bridge. but the enst side has never been floored, although the stringers are in place forone. There is nothing but the frame work of the bridge on that side of the driveway, and there are several places large enough for a man to walk through. It is doubt- ful whe her a damage suit would amount to anything in this particular case, but the authorities should at once see to having the place repaired, before an ac- cident occurs there that would cause a heavy drain upon the city’s purse. ——— Criminal Cases. Several cases were quickly disposed of by Judge Loofbourow yesterday after- noon, or rather, were disposed of by the prisoners themselves, who concluded to plead guilty rather than stand trial. Harry Winn was the first of these. He was indicted for obtaining property un- der false pretenses, using a worthless check. John Frances was brought before the bar on two charges of larceny. He pleaded guilty to one, and Colonel Daily had the other case dismissed. Frances is an old man, about seventy, and his trouble seems to have been the out- growth of drink. He presented a de- plorable condition, and the prosecuting attorney suggested that when the time came for sentence the greatestclemency possible be shown him in view of hisage and feebleness. The old man had been without his accustomed chew of tobacco for weeks, the prisoners not being fur- nished this luxury, and not agreeing with Blaine as to its being a necessity. He improved the opportunity to.beg a chew from a bystander,and the pleasure it evidently afforded him as he rolled the sweet morsel under his tongue 3uickly dried the tears which had rolled own his wrinkled cheeks as he was having his case ade'usted. Adams, who stole a team of horses, concluded to plead guilty. He has been quite fierce for a trial ever since the raillway strike began, and it seemed that the witnesses would not be able toreach here to testify against him. When they unexpectedly appeared the other day, having driven across the®country, he weakened, and concluded to throw him- self on the mercy of the court. One prisoner when asked if he was guilty, replied: “Idon’t know. I'll have to see my lawyer first.” There are a number of small criminal cases to be tried yet. An indictment has been found against N. A. Seamons, the veterinary surgeon, charging him with embezzlement. It is claimed that he sold a horse for some farmer and failed to turn over the money. He secured Sapp & Pusey to defend him. Saturday morning those who pleaded guilty will be sentenced. —_—— Money to loan. W. 8. Cooper. - E. H. Sheafe loans money on chattel security of every description. Private consulting rooms.

He deposited $1,000 in cash, and this bond was ap- proved. It is understood that Clark’s defense will be on strictly legal grounds, rather than moral. Itis claimed that his first wife obtained a divorce from him before he came with his present wife into this state, and that if there was any bigamy on his part it was in Michigan, where he lived with his present wife, before coming to Iowa. Of course, if he can establish this claim, that he never cohabitated with his present wife in the state of Iowa before the divorce freed him from the other wife, his W"Y of escape seems clear, as he can hardly be tried here for a crime committed in Michigan. It is further claimed that when his present wife found that he had been married, she was very nngr{, but that he pacified her by deeding her a house and lot in Lincoln, and giving her 8300 in money, whereupon she signed an agreement not to prosecute him. When her mind became somewhat affected on account of her delicate condition, she began talk- ing about the matter, and then outsiders stepped " in and caused it to be taken into the courts. He expects to remain here, or in Omaha, engage in business, and when the case is cleared up expects to be reunited to his last wife. Such is the Clark side of the scandalous affair. s e Union Abstract Co., 236 Main st. —— 1f you desire to get u new Hall type writer cheap, drop a postal card to H. K P., Bee office.

The room in which the musicale was iven, is the second story of the Muel- er block, which the proprietor has fitted up with a stage and comfortable sittings expressly for this kind of enter- tainment. It answers the purpose of its arrangement most ‘admirably. Mr. Mueller generously offers its'use to the musical public. Liszt ————— Toavelers! Stop at the Bechtele, g et City Council Proceedings. A special session of the city council was held last evening. Present, the mayor and a full board of aldermen. The committee to whom was referred the matter of the resignation of Lucius Wells as councilman, reported they had discharged their duty; that Mr. Wells had decided that he ¢ould not longer continue as such officer without doing injustice to his own business, and hence desired his resignation to stand and take effect March 10. Resolutions of regret were presented and ordered spread upon the records. Upon the report of the committee the nent of $1,000 for moneys and against 'Odell Bros. was re- as credi mitted. The committee having the matter in hand reported against the division of Fourth ward at this time, but that a re- division of the city into wards should be made later in the season. Such division giving eight councilmen. The report was received and goncurred in. The report of the committee al owing Thomas Bowman the sum of $22.40 per lot for damages to his property was re- ceived and concurred in. The deed to the tract of land for Broadway extension from the west line of Ferry addition to the river was, on motion, accepted. An ordinance was introduced changing the course of Broadway to the new bridge; also an ordinance grantingto the Northwestern railway the right of way along First avenue to und through Perry’saddition. All of which were adopted. Upon the application of the Omaha and Council Bluffs Bridge company they were granted the right to grade, pave and otherwise improve Broadway extension at their own expense, and without risk to the city, the entire ex- pense to be taxed againstabutting prop- erty.

LA Ll Badly Broken Up. St. Louis Globe-Democrat: A man with his head in a cage,and hisneck bent tothe right, attracted considera- ble attention recently at the Murray hill hotel, New York. As he walked he limped painfully. In hisshirt bosom he wore a large cluster diamond pin. He was Barney Baldwin, who thinks he has been more broken up than any living man., His injuries include a broken neck, two broken legs; a broken arm, five broken ribs, and a broken collar bone. He tells this story: *‘I was born and broughtup in Ni:w York,” he said to-day. ‘I am thirty-six years of age, but my mother and sister, who live thir- teen blocks away from here, don’t know what a fix I'm in. They think I'm in Australia. 1 was yardmaster on the Louisville & Nashville rail- rond and it was on March 19,last,in the yard at Birmingham,Ala., that the throttle of an engine got out of order and the engine ran wild. I was ona cahoose with six cars attached, When the engine struck the section I was shaken off. In the fall I dislocated my shoulder, broke my right arm at the elbow and my leg at the ankle. I threw my right leg over the foot-board of the engine and broke that leg in two places. The ash-pan of the engine passing over me. broke five ribs and crushed six vertebra of my neck.” “I was unconscious for thirty-six hours and was totally blind for fourteen days. I lay on water mattress 127 days, and I was five months and seven- teen days in bed. Since that time I have never Jaid down, because the ver- tebra of my neck are not knit together yet, and if I should try, the vertebre would slip, press on the spinal cord and produce unconsciousness, For four months after the injury Ifelt stupid, and every now and then passed off into a trance that lasted two and one-half hours. I have got sonow that I can sleep three hours a night in a sitting sture, but I can not lie down. M hroken legs, ribs and arms have mend ed. Itisthe neck and spine that give me the only trouble,” The physicians who pulled him through were Drs. James B. Luckie and Copeland C. Barclay, of Birmingham. After giving a long list of eminent phy- sicians who had examined him, and pro- nounced him a cu\‘inail{ too dangerous to handle, he said that he had asked them all if he would ever he able to re- move the mask and get a night’s sleep. They could give himno encouragement. Then Baldwin showed his wounds---first, the scars on his legs; then the right arm with the sliver joint, and finally the stout waist of leather and silk - which holds in place the steel rod that runs frow his hips along the spinal. column, forming a curve above the head, to the upper ¢nd of which 18 attached ‘a cross- JTHURSDAY.

His purpose in coming to the city is to see if Dr. Sayre can straighten his broken neck for him. It now inclines considerably to the right. Dr. Sayre may take him to Bellevue hospital to- morrow. Baldwin said that a number of physicians were already anxious to buy his body. Dr, Clayborne, of Auck- land, and Dr. Sank Field. of San Fran- cisco, he said, had both offered him, $10,000, but he had no fear of dying yet. — Go to the Next.
