WHAT'S NEW 1IN THE BLUFFS The Water Treatment Tried on a Refractory Prisoner. ANOTHER SMALL BURGLARY HERE District Cotrt-Board of Trade Pro- ceedings—The Republicans Open the Campalgn—items in the Round-Up—Personal. Tried Water on Him, Among the prisoners confined in the county Jail is one son, charged with the larceny of§ from the establishment of Robin- inson 13ros. He is a big fellow, and a_picture of perfect muscular development. He was the notorious *‘cell boss” in the Douglas county jail at the time of *Big Frank's” reign there a few months ago. After his ine tion here he behaved himself for a time, but it was contrary to his disposition to long sub- mit to the rigid rules of Sheriff O'Neill's juil discipline and he began to get mu- tinou He reviled his fellow prisoners for their obedience and accused them of cowardice in a vain attempt to create an open rebellio These things came to the ears ot Sheriff O'Neill and_he promptly determined to un- press upon Gleason very forcibly that he was not confined in Douglas county jail, and hy- dropathic traatment was used upon the r fractory criminal with very good effec When the hose was turned on him he tried in vain to get away from it, as the terrible force of the water almost blistered him, He sought refuge in a cell, but the mozzle was thrust an through the grates, and after being two thirds drowned the ugly brute gave up and said he had enough. As the sheriff turne off the water he coolly said, ‘“Just remem- ber, Gleason, that I am not Joe Miller.” That was all there of it and since then the notorious crook and dangerous thug has been as quiet and peaccable as any of the prisoncrs. This is the first case of insubo dination that Sheriff O’'Neill has had to con- tend with in a year and a half. He is not a nt but he is strict disciplinarian in ense of the word, and the salutory of his course may be seen by a trip to the county jail. Perfect cleanliness, prompt compliance with the jail rules and imwplicit obedience are required. No scowling or sulking is seen and the prisoners evidently respect the sheriff, with whom they are on the pleasantest terms, although no faml iavity is seen or tolerated. Sheriff O'Neill is a model jailor, and his work always shows foritself. The jail is there and an inspec- tion of it at any time will convince anyone of this fact, GREAT SALE sSE MBER 12, Of Council Bluffs Lots At Auction.

Tue Bee has no desire to dictate to or find fault with the board unnecessarily. But the board was organized for specific work. It is constituted of men whose private bus ness demands_their time and attention it is true, but having considered this matter in conuection with the necessary work of that organization, these men should give it and its meetings such attention as the business under its consideration requires. It may be said that it is unjust to ask a sacrifice of time which should be devoted to private matt A connection with the organization tacitly imposes these duties, and it is fair to presume the business men therein knew what these demands would be before they identified themselves with it. Having gone into it, they should not shirk their duty. Al- eady one ‘of the most energetic members has withdrawn, and others have declared they will do so if there is not a more hearty co-operation and attention to the meetings.

How an Editor Proposed to Make a Famous Man More Famo Some time ago while Mark Twain was taking areminiscent float down the Mis- sissippi river, the boat on which he was embarked was compelled one night to “tie up” at Flay’s Point, a village in Louisiana. The humorist had gone to bed, and had just sunk into adoze when there came a sharprapat his state-room door. Twain opened the door. A squint- eyed fellow, wearing a check shirt and rawhidé boots, stepped into the room. “Is this Mark Twain “Yes, I am known by that name.” “Well, siv, I have some mighty im- portant business with you.” “Please state it. “Kain’t do it here, but ef you'll come with me you'll soon find out*” “T don't eare to go anywhere to-night xcept to bed,” Twain replied. “But I tell you this is important— something that should be attended to at once. You just come with me a few minutes and I'll be dinged if you ever regret it” 1 don’t care to meet anyone.” “You won't have to meet any one but me. Youmay have had a trick played on you, but I tell you this is to your ad- vantage. It won’t take you ten minutes. The only reason I want'you to go with me is that I may prove my good faith He continued with such strong impor- tunity that Twain finally consented to yo with him. The humorist was con- h\u'l--l] through a muddy street and down a dark alley to a small wooden building. His conductor unlocked a door, entered a room and lighted a smoky lump. *Come right in an’ set down.” The humorist looked around and d covered that he was in a printing office, fitted up with a hand press and a few cases of tyy “Set down. Twain seated himself on conductor added *You are now, ) ) a box. His sir, within the portals of the Weekly Progress, a paper that circulates extensively throughout the country, and of which Iam the cditor. I wanted to bring you here to show you as convinein’ proof of my standin’ the tools and npl‘)linm'-'s of my honorable profession. 1 could, on the boat, have given the information that I intended to deliver, but, suh, without these here surroundin’s of sincerity,y st have thought me a fraud. Now, this is what I want to tell you Mr. Twain. I have hearn of you, and I want to s ny- thing you write that you want printed, w'y you send it to J. Casper MclIntosh and I'll be blamed if I don’t print it for you. Yes, I will,” he added, meeting the humoi s stare of amazement. *Yes, I'll be dinged if [ don’t. You just go ahead now and write out a lot of your fool things, and I'll be hanged if I don’t publish “em, I don’t care a blame whut folks say. Don’t be snatched, Mr. Twain, for I am a telling of the truth. I’ll publish your articles. Well, ef ye must go, good night.

The people, it is conceded, must have their period of sight-seeing, way- and mirth, and the one disideratum is to mbine with this scason as much as is profitable, ennobling and instructive as pos- 1 as her ice carnival, Sioux St. Louis her fair and ophiets, Cincinnati her centennial, New Orleans her mardi gras, New York her world's fair, Boston her May festival, Chicago her inter-state exposition, and so on throughout the list of metropolitan centers, Omaha in catering to the elevation, the enjoyment nd prog of the hundreds of thousanas interested in her as u commercial centre, it is asserted ought not be behind in such u prospect.

We have as fine hotels as any city, and the is no question of adequate accommodation, The business me d capitalists should call a meeting and discuss the sitnation, as it will devolve upon their enterprise and liberality to erect a suitable building for show of such magmitude. And instead of a week of dust and w 1088, & mouth or six weeks of good, solid enjoyment should be afforded. A.

Mr. Morse would like to sce the matter boomed. George and Joseph Barker ave of the opinion that the people have grown indiffer- ent to the old-fashionea prize punkin, big squash and elephantine poreine exhibition, and yearn for something hizher and better —sonething of a permanent character to show the resources of their town and coun- try, and the day and age in which they live. ‘The attraction must be extensive, advantag- eous, profitable, something that would war- rant’ the railronds in taking a prominent hand in it, something that would awaken a spirt of emulation in other cities, something distinctive and highly meritorious in all details, There must be much that will est and amu and the whole people should concentrate in making such an enterprise a success. The Germans with their sangerfest, the young men with their military, musical and athletic clubs, commercial men, agriculturists, manu- facturers, artists, musicians and inventors should all take a hand in it. They thought a Missouri Valley centennial wouldn't bea bad idea for next year. John D, Créighton was of the opinion that the chief feature of such an affair should be the city's facilities for g up a grand programme of extraordinary attractions, and he thought a little ing and base ball thrown in by way of variety would be a good surrounding Benson said he had already committee with the view of get- ting up just such an exposition and festival— something that would enlist the in- terests of the people from the Mississippi to the coast, and to continue throughout the autumn months, which are most delightful in this latitude. He said a mammoth building would have to be put up, to cost not less than 500,000, and that the sooner the project was agitated and taken hold of the better the prospect of at- taining success, W. V. Morse thought the old Exposition building should have been preserved, the Omaha of ii8 day was not the Omaha of to- day. He had no especial esteem for a fair held without the city limits. What we want is @ grand, good show inside the city to bring the people and hold them here. A. Puxton thought the project was too much of an undertaking, that Omaha would not respond in a manner to justify the at- tempt. It had failed once, and he thought it would again. An Absoiute Cure.
