This street is one of the many city thoroughfares to be paved this season. The colored republican club is pre- paring for a grand good time at Bach's grn\u on Saturday. They invite their rothers from all points to join them. It is now stated that the new strect grader has been sent to Crescent City t up after the hard work it has the city. At least it was seen headed in that direction a few days ago. Work was begun yesterday excavat- ing for the foundat.on of the Merriam block. The brick will be laid on an onk plank foundation, about three and a half feet below the bottom of the cellar, Justice Barnett was called on Wednes- day evening by Ben Herr and Ida Car- ter, both of Creston, who desired the legal process to make them one. It is needless to say they were accommo- 1 rday afternoon Alderman B. T. Waterman was overcome by heat. He was taken home and me 1l attendance summoned. At last accounts he was restin sily, with good prospects of A hired girl in the family of J. J. has skipped out with™ a lot of apparel belonging to Mrs. r. Shea is confident that the is in Omaha, and has notified Chief Seavey. A fire steamer will be put to work this morning at the Glen avenue water works reservoir, pumping water in the n artificial lake in Fairmount purk, which is now completed and ready to add to the many beanuties of thischarm- ing spot. Patrol Driver Mullen has had several changes made in his apartments at the patrol house, to give better light and ventilation. He now gets the benefit of all the air stirring on the north side of Broadway, and takes more comfort than anybody. The knitting factory is now running but a small force, as several changes are being made, but will soon start up n[ilnin with a full number of operatives. The work turned out is of the best grade, and meets with a good demand in the market. Mrs. Carrie Weidman yesterday filed an information in Justice Biggs’ court, charging her husband with assault and battery. The defendant is her second husband. Family rows have been fre- quont of late in the Weidman mansion on Knepher street. The H(Huor seizure cases against the Turf Exchange and Rudy’s place, cor- ner of Graham avenue and High street, were called in Justice Barnett’s court yesterday. No defendants appeared in either case and the wet goods were de- stroyed. Emil, son of Mr.and Mrs. Nicholas Assman, died at 1:20 o'clock yestarday, aged 2 months and 18 days. This is the second death in this household within a short time, & twin brother huving died two weeks ago. The funeral will occur to-day, with interment at the Catholic cemetery. A camp social will be held this even- ing on the lawn at N. P. Dodge's resi- dence, corner of Willow avenue and Fourth street, for the benefit of the Christian Home. Refreshments will be served after 5 o'clock. All are in- vited to attend. DEveryone should remember that to- morrow is ‘‘benefit day” at Manawa, and act accordingly. There will be several special attractions at the lake, and any of them are well worth going tosee. There should be the largest at- tendance of any day this season. It is probable that there will be held on or about the 22d inst., and in this city, a reunion of “‘Crocker’s brigade.” A very large number of these veterans of the late war reside hereabouts, and Council Bluffs has been selected as the place of meeting for that reason. There is a great deal of complaint on account of the condition of the open sewer connecting Broadway and Indian creek, on Benton street. The fail is not sufficient to carry off the water and o horrible stench “constantly arises. This demands the immediate attention of the proper authorities. An addition has been made to the management of the new Ogden, in the person of Harry Winters, a gentleman of great experience in the hotel busi- ness. All changes made at this excel- lent hostelry are for the better, and its high standard of excellence keeps it alongside of the best in the country. DThe work on the foundation of the ‘Washington school building is going on satisfactorily. The foundation isof large stone slab: 6 feet, which are brought from Stone City, lowa. The brick from the old building are being worked into the new structure, as they ave in first class condition and fully as good as new. Master Bennie Grahl was agreeably surprised Wednesday afternoon at the home of his parents, corner of Myuster and Sixth streets)by a number of his friends. The hours were passed in games of various kinds, when the guests sat down to an elaborate spread of all the delicacies of the season. There were about twenty-five of the little folks present. I desire the namesof the residents of Council Bluffs and vicinity who voted for Harrvison in 1836 or 1840, or who, having voted for Van Buren in either of these years, intend to vote at the coming election for the grandson of Old Tippecance. Mail your names,and the names of all those you know of, to Dan C. Shelley, Beg office, Council Blufts. The democratic evening organ comes out strong in favor of the gambling houses being allowed to run with open “doors on the principal streets. It pre- tends to believe it is better to have ovils where everybody can tumble over them. With the same reasoning it will next advocate that the prostitutes should be given the freedom of the city d allowed to flaunt themselves along Broadway and ply their trade openly, where everybody can see. ere are some decent people left in Council Bluffs, and they de- mand that the streets should be kept docently and in order. Some of the saloon men so conducted their places of business, and sosought to run the whole town, that thsiy worked up a stronger sentiment nst the business than the prohibition themselves could pos- sibly have done. The gamblers by fol- lowing the same policy will cause a like result. If they insist on running open, on ground floors, with their tables almost on the &dewa:h. l:nd thsl‘: hanging about the entrances, m‘:m be n% ere there will be such sontiment against them that have to move beyond the " misse WHAT ABOUT THE BLUFFS? The Mideummer Night Thieves Find Another Victim. THE CITY'S MONEY SHOWING. More Ahout the Manilla Murder Mys- tery--More Policemen and Less Buttons Needed—Brief Bits of Bluffs News, Too Many Brass Buttons, It begins to be pretty clearly demon- strated that the metropolitan style of police clothes is not all that is necessary to protect the city from thieves and thugs. There are some good officers on the present force, but they are togged out with brass buttons, and required to march their beats with a regularity that makes them good patrolmen, but very poor detectives. At night when one of the glittering officials moves along his beat, under the brilliancy of the elee— tric light, the thie 1 keep as good track of him us though he were a comet. The officer is at a disadvantage,and the | thieves do their deviltry with no fear of being captured. There are but a few policemen in all, and their beats are very lnng, If a little of the money that is expended on other departmentsof the city government was devoted to the em- ployment of two special men, good de- tectives, who could do alittle shadowing and watching, there might be a thief caught occasionally. The numerous burglaries of late indicate that the thieves are not much afraid of being caught by a dress parade. —— Full line of sheet music Bluffs Music Co., 224 Br at Counci adway.

The mysterious Manilla murder case, in whi: was the victim, does not seem to be vy speedy way of being cleared up. It has been inti- mated that Sharp was not killed, but that it was a conspirvacy to get insur- ance money. This is refuted by the fact that the insurance company has been satisfied that the man was killed, and paid the money over promptly. His brother invested $500 with the Pinker- ton agency to unearth the murdercr: Suspicion is now turned toward the man Devine, who was to return from Kansas City and testify against Mason, who, he claimed, had confessed to him that he had killed Sharp. The cause of Deyine’s failure to return from Kan- sas City was his arrest there for con- spiracy. It _ appears that he at- tempted to bribe a young colored man to come to Denison and swear that Mason had confessed the crime to him also. Devine told the negro that he would stick Mason, get the reward and then disappear. Mason is now at liber! Devine's statement, on which the warrant was issued for Mason’s arvest, was as follows, Mason being known to him as Scott: ‘**Met Mark Scott on Monday, May 21 or 28, in Kansas City, Mo., and had a_talk with him there, corner Nineteenth and Oak streets. He sent a man in to inquire if I boarded there, and asked me to come out. This was about 7:30 o'clock in the evening. I came out. He said, ‘I'd like to have a general talk with you.’ I said all right, and we walked down town. He named men I was acquainted with to prove himsell to me and then made statements of what he wished to do. He said he was open for anything there is any money in. Said Lc was oing to talk plain to me, I said, what 0 you propose doing—you would not wreck a railroad train, would you? He said, yes; I would. I said, ‘You could be relied on to take life if necessary?’ He said, ‘It would not be my first time.” I I said I never killed anybody. He pro- posed burglary and Council Bluffs as the place. He was athome in the Bluffs. I suggested Carroll. He said, ‘I must keep away from that country, I got into trouble there. Something seri- ous; the matter was this, to get shot down or shoot another man. I did not hesitate to shoot after a shot was fired atme. He fell right in my presence. T jumped up on the fence. He was not more than three rows of corn away from me when I shot him. I made a sure thing of it. Itook a club and finished himn. ’Twas dangerous to fire more than twice at him, I might be heard. I struck him twice with a club on the head. 1T did not stop to take anything; there was no money in it. I only show this to prove to you that I could do such a thing when necessary.” I asked him where it occurred. He said it was in €rawford county, lowa. He said it was in Manilla, and said the man’s name was Charles Sharp. He said he dragged the man in the corn field quite a bit. He smd he would try hard and prove an alibi if he ever got into trouble. Scott (Mason) said he stopped him to rob him, thinking he had money. He offered resistance. Fired at me, ed me and I fired at him and missed him, then I jumped on the fence as he was going in the cornfield and ired again and shot him in the head. his was about 2 o'clock at night. — Buy mantels, grates and-hearth fur- mishings of the New York plumbing Co.

Stop at the Bechtole, bk G The Crooks Get Off Ensy. ’Squire Biggs has been severely crit- icised for not keeping the three crooks locked up in jail,instead of discharging them. He justifics himself by the state- ment that the otticers who brought the trio before him promised to have an in- formation filed by 2 o’clock in the aftor- noon. At 5:30 there was still no in- formation filed, and when their attorney appeared and demanded that they should be released he could do nothing else than discharge them, there being no information on which to hold them. It scems that the officers should have filed their information even before they went after the three men, and they laid them: s liable for arresting these men without a warrant, they having had plenty of time in which to procure one. After arresting them they had nearly a day in which to make their charge aguinst them, and when, through an attorney, the prisoners demanded their rights. Justice Biggs could hardly be expected to deny them. It is to be re- retted that these fellows thus got [0ose, and it scems strange that officers who were 8o active in capturing them should neglect taking the necessary steps to hold them. was afterwards ar- One of the trio rested and his case continued until Saturday.

Judge Aylesworth sat in judgment on a mixed lot of specimens yesterday morning. Douglas Watson and Charles T. Grant were each taxed $7.60, and Jake Washington $8.10 for boozing. Oscar Sprink and Henry Springler were charged with disturbing the peace. Henry was discharged, and Oscar thrown back into the hole for further examination. Pat Kelley was fined $100 and sent_to jail for thirty days for the larceny of a coat. Mrs. Shelton was also sent up for thirty days as a vagrant. Her case is asad one. She formerly moved in good society here, but her ?msh(\ud lost his money, and she could not stand the re- verses and left her husband for another man of more ample means. He soon got tired of her, and her fall then was rapid. To-day she is without a home and almost friendless.
