An Old Man Falls Down a Ocllar Way—The New Steamboat Named After the Mayor—The Coun- cil Meeting. A Probably Fatal Fall. About 9 o'clock yesterday morning an aged resident of the city by the name of H. C. Henderson, residing on Harrison street, opposite Foster's greenhouse, feil through a trap door in the y of B. on upper Broadway, and sustained serious injuries. He was walking to the back part of the store and did not notice the trap, which bad been lefy opep to dry out the cellar, which flooded by thé ram of Sunday as afternoon. Mr. Gardiner heard the fall and rushed down stairs, to find the unfortunate man lying on his b and shoulders, with his face in the rie was extri a from his perilous position and taken up stairs, when it was found that he was una- ble to move, and a doctor and the patrol wagon were summoncd.

As these representative journalists of the state have chosen Council I3lufls as their starting point it was thought proper that they be enter- tained while they are with us. To arrange for this a meeting was held yesterday after- noor which th were present the local press club, members of the board of trade, the mayor and other representative citizens. The order of the day as outlined is as fol- lows: At 9o'clock the club room will be oven and gentlemen will be present to re- ceive all who come. Business men are ex- pected to lay aside their work for an hour and visit the rooms. At 1o'clock carriages will arrive at the hotcls and the visitors will be given a ride through Fairmount park and to other places of nterest —about the city, At clock Colonel Reed will run a special train to Lake Manawa, which he has generously placed at the disposal of the cxcursionists and thew friends. Arriving at Lake Manawa the boats will take them across the lake and back.

With one more united and earncst effort the enterprise can be se- cured. Everybody should be actively inter- ested in this. The situation is critical. There has been so much work done already that the enterprise can hardly be abandoned, and yet there is Just lacking enough to warrant the managers in going ahead with their c tract. Unless the arrangements are c pleted within a week or so it will be impossible to sceure an assembly next 3 The talent and attractions necessary for such a programme are already being engaged by other places for next year.

The exc ment and indignation in the southern part of the city over the change in the location of the hose reels was even more intense yesterday than on the preceding day. A petition to have the old system restor was cireulated and over two hundred signers secured, representing the largest property in that part of the city. Amongthem were the following responsible business men of the city stone Manufacturing com- pany, Deere, Wells & Co., David Bradley & Co., Crystal Mill Grain company, Chicago Lumber company, Council Bluffs Lumber company, Cole Bros., Marseilles Manufactur- ing company, D. H. McDaneld & Co., George Bebbington, McClurg Cracker company, Tip- ton Coal compuny, Thomas Ofticer, L. Kirscht, Groneweg & Schoentzen, John Schoentzen, Keeline & Felt, Max Mohn, A. L. Kable, D. E.

Tilo petitioners claim that the change has endangered their property, and scek a reme- dy at the hands of the city council. The proverty in question is aniong the most valu- wble in the city, embracing the lumber yards und wholesale' implement houses, as well as many of the leading retail houses. Chief Wallers is severely scoved, as he 1s claimed to be the cause of it. On the other hand, Walters seeks to shirk the respensibility, and says the change was ordered by the fire committee. Alderman Kuepler, who is a member of the fire committce, says he knew nothing of the chango until he read it in yesterday's Bee, He thinks the council should not interfere with the workings of the department, and aivocates the removal of the chiefif ke is nov able to run it in a satisfactory manner. The general manugement of the departinent comes in for much adverse cri by the public. The big is stated out to all fires, and the men who are stationed with it fail to reach the majority of them. lu fact, cne of the rea- B.

AR it is now, the citizens justly objeet to paying their money for fire protec- tion which they do not get. erileisiin The Hotel to Be Built.

Further investigation shows that he did not intentionally desert the child and its mother in the time of trouble, as he did not know that the child was dangerously ill. The couple are not married, but the woman says the man has been “keepmg” her for several months, She was formerly a member of the demi-monde, but lately has taken in wash- ing. She told the neighbors that she was left alone with the child before it died, and that the statement was construed to mean that she was de od, and it was so pub- lished. The father claims to have done us much as possible for his illegitimate child, and does not wish to be unduly censured.

On the morning of the Il'h d of August, 1572, Char yang man_of twenty-fiv 1 at Xeni 1 dead while waking across the din th g room in his father’s hou icisco The family ed of mothes, (wo- sisters, and a cousin, o boy of fifteen, AL were present at the breakfast fable when Charles entered the room, but instead of taking his accustomed seat near the door by which he had entery 1, passed it and went obhquely toward one of the windows, with what Jurpose no one knows fle had passed the table but a few steps when he fell heavi and never again breathed. The body was carried into a hedroom, and. after’ v: Torts at resuscitation nily, left lying on the bed with composed Timbs and covered face. In _the meantime the boy had been hastily dispatched for a physician, who arrived some twenty minutes after the death. He aftery rembered as an uucommon cireumstance that when he arrived the weeping relations ~father, mother, and two sisters—were all in the room out of which the bed- room door opened and that the door w. closed, There was no other to the bed- room. "This door was at once opened by father of the deceased, and as th n passed through it he observed the id ouatlines of the body under the sheet that had been thrown over it, and the profile was plaialy diseernible under the th, clear cut and sharp, as profiles of the dead seem always to be. He approached and lifted the cloth. Ther nothing the He pulled @ the shec Nothing. The family bad followed him into the room.

The fathe condition was but little better; he stood in a stupor, muttering inart ulate staring like an idiot. Hay ored the ladies to con- ciousne: 1 went to the win- dow—the only one the room had—open- ing upon a garden. It was locked on the inside, with the usual fastening at- tached to the bottom bar of the upper sash and engaging with the low No inguest was held—there w ing to hold it on, but the physic many others who were curious as to this remarkable occurrence made the most searching investigation into all the ¢ v to the floor the phy- noth- an and cumst 5, but without result. Charles J. Reid was dead and *‘goue,” and that is all that is known to this day. e One touch of kindness that a house keeper will appreciate is the presentas tion to her of several bottles, nay of one bottle, of Van Duzer's Flavoring E tracts which are known and esteemed in every properly ordered houschold for their ascertained purity, delicacy and height of flavor. They are particularly economic, ne aiting the use only of the least quantity, and the bottles ur the fiye different sizes contain more than the average. All grocers sell o, HOVELTIES, MAIN ST.
