Street Commissioner Avery is doing some lmlch needed work on Broadway in remov- ing the heavy coating of mud, and the result is very much appreciated by both passengers and pedestrians. Next Wednesday the Pacific Mutual tele ph company will move its local office from roadway to South Main strect. The office fof J. I Lutzis being remodeled and here will be the new quarters. The music_loving people of Council Bluffs are not required to have a written invitation the musical given by Mrs. Skelton idence of Mr. and Stubbs, Tuesday evening, May 15, \eommences promptly at 8 o'clock. 40 There will be a meeting of the Catholic {iyoung men of Council Bluffs at St. Francis avier's church at4:800°clock this afternoon. ¢ A large attendance is reauested as the pur- pose of the meeting is to perfect urrange . ments for a permanent organization. The pipe has arrived for the intersections of the Lower Broadway water main, and work will be commenced this week putting it in place. It will all be laid before the <pavers get along so that the block laying will ‘ot be delayed or in any way interfered with. The Reflector’s society editor made a mi take in wiving Mr. and Mrs, T.

His face was badly cut and braised, and when the damage was partly re- .paired with plasters, etc., he was quite sober. it will be some days be Nash is as good a (man as he was be his mishap. 1.« During past years the Baptist church “this city has had somewhat of a struggle establishing itself, and in_its mawmtens 'has been ussisted by the Home Mission so ciety of that church. At its last meeting the financial ability of its membership was can- vassed, and it was resolved that the church was self-sustaining, and_the missionary co- ciety was so notified. The organization is to be congratulated that its power and useful- ness are thus augmented. * Max Mohn was very warm about the collar yesterday when he learned that parties were reporting that he had been the cau the eriff closing the saloon which recently started up at 13 Main street, adjacent to his proverty. He says that it is enough for him torun the Creston house without spending his time interfering with the business of other people. It seems that there was no need of Max Mohn, or any one else, going out of their way to inform the authoritics that a saloon was running there, for the front of the building was covered with signs in- forming the public that drinks of various kinds could be obvained within. The new saloon recently opened next to the Creston house on Main street, was nicely fitted up and defiantly flung out its sign that it would serve the thirsty ones despite the prohibition law. It was understood that Mr, aines was the proprictor and an injunction was obtained some time ago agafhst him. The building, owned by Mr. Ritter,was form erly used as a saloon, but as the result of prévious proccedings, the business was tlosed up. Lately the owner rented it again for “‘restaurant’ purposes, and it under- stood that he secured from his new tenant and friend, a bond indemnifying him against any fine or other damage which might result if Tiquors were sold there, The sheriff has stepped in and closed the place, by order of rourt, and it remains to be seen what fines or other costs will result. — Personal Paragraphs.

O.( Max Mohn and othe S i The City Parks, The park commissioners are making ar- rangements for extensive improvements in this class of the city’s property during the coming season. Bayliss park, one of the most beautiful spots of its size to be found in the country, comes in for its share. The walks are to be paved with artificial stone, made of crushed white stone, instead of gravel, so as to give it the appearance of marble. A six inch border of terra cotta will give them a ncat and finished appearance. The band stand that now occupies a position in the center of the park, will be removed, and a handsome §1,000 fountain_substituted in its place, The band stand will probably be removed to the driving park. The com- missioners object to leaving it where it is, s it is badly out of repair and the cost of fixing it up would exceed its value. The fountain will be surmounted by an electric light that will_illuminate the whole park. The lights on the court house answered this purpose while the es were off, but the dense foliage now renders the spot quite durk and additional light desirable. The benches were placed in - position yesterday and they were occupied during the greater part of the day. There are about thirty ot them and more would be purchased if it was not feared that the result would be the com- plete externiination of the grass. The park was carefully sprinkled all through the dry weather of ‘last. season snd the plan will be repeated this season if n essary. The new walks will cost about $1,500 and the other improvements will amouut to considerable more. But the work is by no means to be confined to this park, Work at Fairmount has already begun. An artificial lake is to be constructed in the center of the park and numerous urtificial springs will be placed at various points, insuring plenty of water. The water supply is being provided for by Harry Birkinbine, manager of the waterworks company. This gentleman has furnished an engine of three horsepower, and a six horsepower boiler to be placed on the bank at the Gler wue reservoir,which will force the water to a large tank in the park, from which it will be distributec needed. The engine will be run by the gentleman at the reservoir, so the expense will not amount to much. ' Walks and drives will be laid out and considerable grading done to put this enjoyuble spot in suitable condition. The city engineer was busy yesterday a Prospect park, the attractive *Tittle plot of 1 on Harrison b and oth out trees and seeding the piece another sea- son. Atthe Big Lake park considerable work is atso being done. The city council has ordered the Driving Park association to vacaté Cherry street, so as to give the city a right-of-way to {his property, and parties owning land near the Take have offered a right-of-way across their tracts, This piece of the city's posscssions comprises about four hundred acres. and is to bo fitted up for picnic grounds. The lake has been dammed up and makes o splendid fishing ground. A special policeman i perty, and has instructions to allow inc fishing in the luke and to keep all fu- toxicated persons away from there. No parties will be allow t tne grounds with loadéd bottles and bowl up for a day’s orgics, as the place is intended to be kept in & condition for Bilics’ and. children’s picnic parties without fear of interruption. Island purk, with its 107 acres of lund, 1s also in Cluded in the list of city parks, and. aithongh 10 work is contemplated there this season, it tan be make one of the most delightful spots that the city owns. Tt is heavily timbered, some of the elms now measuring seventeen foot in circumference, and soft maples four- teen fect. It will not' require a great outl of money to bring it up to the standard of the others.

Ad- aress or eall on J. IR, Riee, No. 110 i Blafls, . A Saloon Compromise. The demand for the saloon men to pay the city $50 a month, as a sort of hcense, under & prohibition state law, does not strike the dealers in drink very favorably. As a sort of compromise a number of them now pro- pose to pay the city §25 a month, instead of £50, feeling that while no real protection can be offered by the city, yet 1t would be worth this amount to have the city just keep still, and not fight them. 1t 18 proposed that they obligate themselves in a written dociment to pay the $25 each month promptly, and to obey the other requirements about closing at midnight and on Sundays. Whether the compromise will be accepted by Mayor Robrer is not known, but he may conclude it is better to take it, than to be compelled to go into a fight and get nothing The saloons justify th naming of . the ground that they pay the attorneys 25 a month for looking after the ir cases in court, and with the city’s #25 they would then be paying 850 a month, which is as heavy a tax as the business will warrant as now being conducted, and with the chances of being fined $500 or §1,000 for contempt of court at any time, on ik i Bargains at Harkness Brothers. o St. Lonis Excursion.
