Deputy Marshal White reported yesterday thata party of men and women spent Sun- day at Big L here they coroused for the entire day.

The claim was made that the blocks were unsound, and that the tamping was insufticient. 1t was finally smoothed over. Inspector Jacobs is thought to be & competent man for the place, and it is expected that he will lock out for the in- terests of the city and property owners, Marshal Gaunella returncd last evening from Kansas City in charge of John Ford, who was arrested there for forgery and ob taining_goods under false pretenses. He came without a requisition, and evidently repents his rash acts. It is plain that he is “'stuck” on the girl, Rosic Fisher, and un- doubtedly took her trunk away in _the vain hope that she would follow it.

This was more than the searcher had bargained for, and he concluded that it was time to leave. He traveled quite a dist- ance at a rapid gait before he got beyond the last of the flying bottles. Among the many lovers of art in this city there are fow as skillful in the use of the brush as Miss Mollie Rice. She has just fin- ished for her sister, Mrs. Jackson, of Sioux City, a most beautiful sccne. It is a triple fold, and each of the three panels has an in- dividuality of decoration, which makes it a rare picture of itself, and yet all harmonize charmingly. On one of the panels the boughs of an apple tree appear in blossom, on the next laden with ripe apples, and in the third appear the snow birds on' the barren boughs. The changes of the season are ve pleasingly * presented. The conception unique and Miss Rice merits credit for orig- inality of design, as well as artistic skill in execution.

This dowe, a two-horse chemical engine should be purchased to take the place of the single reel at No. 8 house. The city would then be very well protected. ‘Tug BEE is pleased to note that sueh a move is anticipated. Chief Walters and a number of citizens have circulated a petition to this effect and have secured several hundred signers, The petition asks that the new house be located at the corner of Fourth avenue and Seventeentk street, It is said that the council favors the idea, and that the petition will be granted. This will give the city bet- ter protection and make easier work for the fire boys. R s Loans mace on city business and resi- dence property. Notes bought. Kim- ball-Champ Investment company.

Mayor Rohrer has no excuse now. Here is the chief of the civil force of this city. The man in whose care is reposed the presesvation of the peace of the city, he comes out squarely and says to the mayor: ‘Giive me orders o close the saloons and I 1do 80.” What does his honor say to this challengel rshal Guenalla 18 right in the stand he en. Let more pliable men do the dirty work of the mayor. Following this purposely misleading article, the journalistic friend of the marshal adds a polite invitation to the mayor to ‘‘give the marshal orders to close the saloons.” Now this grand bluff (for it is nothing else), ild work very well if it was not for the fact that there happens to be a a_ volume en- titled “Compiled Ordinances of the City of Council Bluffs,” also containing the statutes adplicable to cities of the first class, organ- zed under the laws of Iowa. In section 10, pages 115 and 119 of this vol- ume, may be found the following: It s be the duty of the city marshal, 1st. To wi gently inquire into and report to the or superior courtall violations of the nd criminal laws of the state ite all persons guilty thereof.” cause to be enforced within the city the laws of the state and the ordinances of the city in relation to licenses and traftic in intoxicating liquors, the suppression of gaming houses, and houses of ill-fame, also vagrancy.” Section 13, page 120—*1f he shall neglect or refuse to perform any of his duties im- posed by law or_the ordinances or resolu- tions of the council, or shall perform the same in a fulse or partial manner, or shall become a party to any crime or knowingly permit any crimiaal action, he shall be liable 1o forfeit to the city 80 for each breach of his duty, recoverable on his official bond n the name of the city.” These sections of the statutes are so plain that they can not be possibly misunderstood, yet the marshal says to_the mayor, “Give e tie orders to close the saloons and I will doso.” It is but a very sorry excuse for his neglect to faithfully perform the duties of his oftice. 1 he is afraid that to do so would destroy his chances of another term in the al's office, and thinks more of the than he does of his honor as a man, It would be much more manly than to try to throw the blame on the mayor. e GREAT SALE Of Council Bluffs Lots At Auction. 1 will offer for sale and sell without reserve to the highest bidder one-half of all the lots in Cochran’s addition to Council Bluffs, One lot of every other Ynir through- out the whole addition will be soid with the privilege to the purchaser of the re- maining lot at the same price.

San Francisc Examiner: Is is safe to wager that William Margo, an employe of Holbrook, Merrill & Stetton, will not apply for another marriage license until he has first obtained the consent of the young lady. The reason that he will not do so is sduse he had a very unpleasant ex- perience with John Arnold, who for- merly glny(‘d bail with the Haverly club. n the meeting the charming Billy was discomfited. Margo is a well-known young man about town, who never misses a mas- querade bull or any other place of amusement, where he will have an op- ortunity to distinguish himself, and he is ambitious of being considered what the dudes call a *‘lady-killer.” To such an extent has reputation goue in that direction that he has been tempted to do many things which his companions would not dare attempt. It is his proud boast that he never tried to become acquainted with a young lady and failed. In addition to his other bad habits, Margo occasionally indulges his bibu- lous propensities. Some time ago Margo became ac- quainted with the sister-in-law of M. Arnold. The young lady, who is barely fifteen, is rather handsome, and as she did not appear to pay as much attention b .to the young man as he had been in the habit of receiving, he was piqued. He sought to cultivate her acquaintance, but she did not like his attentions, and plainly told him so. This made Margo feel worse than ever, and he said: “‘I'll win that girl's heart or die in the attempt.” Last Tuetday afternoon he took more than his customary allowance of wine, andsoon his mind was aflame and he de- termined he would make a last desper- ate effort for success. He went to the new city hall, and in- quiring his way to Cupid Wiseman's office, asked for a license authorizing him to marry the girl whom he had chosen, though she had not chosen him. He had a carriage waiting. and driv- ing to Mr. Arnold’s house he asked to seo the young lady. M rnold told him that her sister did not wish to see him,and she begged him to go away. QThe infatuated young man insi seeing the gir 3ecoming wear! his persistence, Mrs. Arnold told that if he did not leav she would summon a pol have him arrested. S ed on 2d by him e immediately e officer and ing that he had a determined woman to deal with, Margo grew frightened, and he went away, first vowing that he would re- turn. Before going he exhibited the license as an earnest of his good intentions. By this Mrs. Arnold at once saw that he had sworn falsely, as she made affi- davit that her sister was eighteen years of age. At night when her husband returned home Mrs. Arnold told him the story, and saill that Margo had threatened to come back, “TlL bet that he don’t,” quietly an- swered Arnold, “‘and as I am respon ble for his acquaintance with ur s ter, I'll take care that he don’t.” The next morning Mr. Arnold wi out to find Margo, and he met him ing out of his place of business. conversation was brief, and in about a minute Margo measured his length on the sidewalk. He tried to get up to defend himself, ent rom- Their and a went down. This was re- peated three times, and finally Margo hud all he wanted and remained in a pcumbent position. When his friends athered him up and laid him tenderly in the straw, he admitted that he de- served what he got, and that he was thoroughly repentant. Arnold was not yet satisfled. He went to the county clerk’s office to learn what steps he could take to have the license canceled and to secure Margo's punishment. When wld that he could have Margo arrested for perjury, he ex- pressed a determination to do so; but other counsel prevailed,and he thought as it could only end in unenviable noto- riety, he would press the matter no fur- ther. _ READ THE NEWS. | New Goods Throughout. | NEW PRICES ON ALL GOODS. | New Curtains, Shades, Etc. oW rate of TEN insertion and sequent insertio: our office, No. arl Council Blufts Towa.
