The Omaha soclety will be present, and invita- tions will be extended to the societies at Lin- coln and Dunlap. There is now enough money pledged for a a new hotel to make it very evident that fully $25,000 can be secured as & bonus to any one who will put up a $150,000 hotel in this city. There are several locations, any one of ‘which would satisfy the citizens. But very few of the parties who are erect- ing buildings comply with the ordinance re- quiring the taking out of a permit, and the city clerk desires to have the attention ofall such parties called to the said ordinance, that it may be more strictly complied with., A delegation of citizens from the board of trade will accompany the commander of Abe Lincoln post and the delegation to the G.

It will be a grand affair, Ed Schicketanz has moved his barber shop into the brick building on Main street only one door south of his old stand, and has fit- ted the new shop up very attractively and conveniently. The old building just vacated by him is to be moved off to make room for a new brick building, which will be oceupied by Odcll & Bryant as a hardware store. The German Catholic fair which opens in the Temple hall next Monday evening prom- ises to be a great success. There has been much energy shown in the work of prepara- tion, and with the numerous attractions in “the week’s programme the receipts should be 80 large as to give substantial help to this church in its commendable work. Rook, when he heard the verdict of the jury acquitting him of the charge of murder, was almost wild with delight, and fairly jumped to the jury and grasped hands with each of the twelve, thanking each person- .llx. Then he turned and shook hands with Judge Carson. Grabbing his hat, he started out, saying: “I'll go now and see the old woman.” The scene was one which almost broke the dignity of the court, but the man was hardly to be blamed for allowing his en- thusiasm to get away with his judgment. It seems as if the energies of the wide- awake citizens could be concentrated on some one of the numerous projects now being talked up, improvements could be secured more surely and certainly, The motor line can be got started very quickly, as all that is now lacking is the removal of the obstruc- tions J;uc in its way by the Chicago & Rock Island company. As soon as that is settled, there should be a centering of energies on the union depot project, and that should be crowded to a success, as all it needs is a little pushing. The hotel could quickly follow, and with these three things secured this season numerous other enterprises would follow right along. At present the force of public spirited citizens seems greatly divided, and they weaken their energies, TION. -~ Money at low rates on first-class 1arm security.

DOINGS IN UNCLE SAM'S COURT, An Towa Boy Sues Ris Father For a Promised Farm—Chief Temple- ton Will Stay—Playing Crazy. The Ogden Leased. The opening of the Ogden house is now an assured fact, and the date is fixed as the first of May. Messrs. Stout & Dooley, the pro- prietors, have just perfected a five year's lease of the building to Mr. S. E. Hunt, of the Southern hotel of St. Louis, and Mr, A, B. Davenport, of the Millard, of Omaha. Both these gentlemen have had extensive ex- perience in the hotel business, and are ex- actly the men for the place. Mr. Dooley in- formed a Ber reporter yesterday morning that several important changes would be made in the house, that it would be fitted up in strictly first class shape, and conducted a8 a number one hotei in everyrespect. A large passenger elevator is to be put in, the office, washroom and corridors laid with marble tiles, the kitchen thoroughly over- hauled and ' furnished with a new range, and such other changes as may be necessary for the comfort and convenience of guests, The proposed improvements will robably cost nearly $10,000. Said Mr. oley: “‘The reason why we have not made a lease, and had the Kousco ned be- fore is mostly on account of the scheme be- ing worked by the board of trade to build a new palace hotel. Several parties came here o lease our house, but on learning of the proposed plan would say that_they could not afford to take it as they would be knoacked out completely if the new building was put up. Furthermore, we were not particularly anxious to lease to any of these }mrucs, as it would have been more or less of an_experi- ment, ana we wanted men who would surely make a success of it, and in this we have suc- cceded. In fact these same gentle- men were at first opposed to it, but on carefully looking over the ground, they decided that here was a_splendid open- ing, and made up their minds that if this house was refitted and properly conducted no new hotel would be built. ‘The lessees are widely known and have made an envia- ble reputation as wide-awake and successful hotel men. When the projected changes are completed, the house will present quite a dif- ferent internal appearance. The marble work is to be done by the Pickle Marble company, of St. Louis. This firm is now at work putting in the marble at the govern- ment building, and their men will suspend work there about the first of next week in order to fix up here. The contract for the elevator is not yet let. but Omaha and St. Louis parties are now figuring on it, by the side o ng room door. We are highly pleased in securing such prominent holwl' men, and have no doubt as to the re- sult.” The opinion expressed by many of the bus- iness men who have heard of the new lease 18 one of gratification, and they predict the greatest success for the new lessees. If fitted up and furnished as it should be, the Ogden is amply commodious to accommo- date the traveling public and such regular boarders as would have patronized a new hotel. The proposed opening is very welcome to the citizens of Council Bluffs, and is hoped will prove a grand success. ——— Western lowa College.

Bryant has been in correspondence with a prominent chemist in the east, Who has discovered a new method of manufacturing white lead from pig. The advantages secured in s discovery are these: By the old method of corrosion from three to six months’ time 15 required to reduce it and get it ready for use. One hundred pounds of pig will produce about one hundred and nineteen pounds of white lead. The silver which the lead con- tains, though small in quantity, is lost on ne- count of the expense incidental to its separa- tion. The silver averages about & to the ton of lead, which, while not figured in the esti- mated profits, 'Would amount to_considerable in the aggregate. By this now process but three days’ time is required in the manufac- ture. On account of the existence of a c tain element in the crude lead a long time is required to overcome by corroding, but this clement is entirely overcome in the new method, hence the difference in the time re- quired by the two processes. Mr. Bryant is in possession of samples of lead produced by both methods. By corro- sion both English and American leads show great discoloration when subjected to the sewer gas test, the American being nearly brown. Whilé the othwr, produced by the re- cent methods, is perfectly white, although subjected to the same test. Those who have the matter of developing the new discovery are desirous of starting ten factories, at well located points in this country. This place has been selected as one of the ten, and without doubt a_factory will be located in either Council Bluffs or Omaha. “That an investment in this enterprise would pay there is scarcely room for question, as the following fizurcs will show: A plant capable of handling ten tons per day will cost $20,000, and the net profit will be 40 per cent. The plan on foot is to organize a stock company which shall have suflicient financial backing to carry the enterprise to what can- not help but be an assured success. . o adilin Lot 10, block 7, Bayliss’ first addition, with good house, will be offered cheap for the next ten days by S.

Two young men ou the Chicago, Burlington & Quiney tram yesterday had a funny rivalry over the companionship of a petite actress, who chanced to be on the train. One of the masculine twain was a young Omaha broker, the other was bound for Council Bluffs. The Bluffs young man was quick to notice that the Omaha fellow was moving toward the winning side, in biissful ignorance that there was any rival near at hand. The young man bound for the Bluffs managed to get the Omaha masher into conversation, and inuo cently remarked to him: “sn't pity about that girl there” “Why, what's the mattert" “Mattert Why, she's stark crazy. You ought to have secn her down the road aways. She was wild, and I thought she was going to break every window in the car. She's got quieted down now, and seems all right, #nd ber friends, who sit right bebind ber, hope to get hor through to the asylum with out any further troubje.” ‘I'he Omaha broker had & far-away look in his eye as he sauntered off into the smokin car to calm his nerves with nicotine. not a doubt concerning the and was congratulating hi - ToW escape {rom a scene, until in changing at Pacifio Junction he noticeg the other , young man sitting beside the fair one, chatfing as happily as one could wish.

In Judge Shiras’ court there was an equity case of Mason vs Mason, which has peculiar features. It is a sult of son against father. The piaintifl claims that his father, who lives in Pennsylvania, came out here and bargained for a farm in Ringgold county for 2,000, which he was to give to his son. He paid §200 on the place, and on returning home sent his son §1,800 of Which $1,800 was paid on the farm and the other $500 used to stock it, with the understanding that the young man should use this amount later in_payin off a $00 mortgage on the farm, The ol gentleman was to keep the place in his name until_jt was cleared by the young man and then deed it to him as a gift. The young man went_ahead with improvements, paid the interest on the mortgage, and handled the property as his own. In two orthree years he began to urge the father to deed him the farm, but the old gentleman after some delays utterly refused. Then this_ suit was brought, The mortgage now has been fore- elosed and forty acres sold off to satisfy that.

You don't hear any aldermen say s0. It seems to me the council ought to be entitled to credit for some sense at least, and they surely wouldn’t exhibit any in making a change. .
