Rot Over a Law Suir., The great Henry-Evans cattlo case and its £52,000 has at last been submitted to the court. after a trial of one full week, and has been taken under advisement. The closing argu- ment was made by Judge Hubbard for the plaintiff, concluding about 11 o'clock yester- day. The only sensational features of the case ocourred just after it closed. The cause was certain statements made by Judge Hub- bard in his argument. Said he, “The defense has pone outside the case in attacking the in- tegrity and personal character of my client and I shall also go outside 1t in showing how far superior to this defendant is my client, the plaintiff.” The attorney then referred to a case which was tried in Mills county a few days ago in which the defendant in this case was also defendant. He stated that the de- fendant denied his_signature to a check and was impeached. He scored Mr. Evans deep- 1y and the latter jumped to his feet and re- quested his attorney, Colonel Sapp, to put a stop to the onslauglit of the opposing coun- sel. 1t was of no use, and Judge Hubbard kept on until he was through ana_had said all he wanted to say. As soon as he was seated Mr. Evans walked over to him and de- manded to know 1f he was_going to “take back that assault.” “Not by a d--d sight,” replied the doughty judge. “1f you don't, 1 will make you,” said Evans, who was fairly whito with anger, laying his hand on the shoulder of the at: torney. ‘“Take your hand off my shoulder and go to hades,” thundered the lat who by thi tune was in o furious hea Don't_ come near me, for 1 don’t want to have anything to do with you.” 1 will see you when you leave the court room and we will seitle this then,” said Evans with an ominous glare, “Why don't you do it why don’t you do it, and not keep talking about it mquired Hubbard, as he pulled himself together, and the muscles developed by years at the forge bulged out his coat sleeves, in strange con- trast to the gray hairs of the legal veteran. Judge Decmer, who had been intently watching them, was evidently on the point of calling on the bailift to interfcre, when Mr. Evans turnea and walked back to his side of the table, where he engaged in an animated discussion with his attorney, freely interspersing it with gestures of his clenched fist. He shortly afterward left the court room. Judge Hubbard stopped to_collect a few papers, and then followed. Evans had disappeared and that was the end of what promised to be a very exciting incident. The spectators fully expected to sce a pitehed battle and one enthusiustic on-looker offered 0dds of twoto one on the_ex-black- sm The case was submitted and the ripple subsided, ‘The case of Cowles vs Harle, Haas & Co. was then commenced. The plaintiff peti- tioned for the appointment of a receiver for the firm, in order to secure money which he had in the firm as a partner. The plaintift was the only witness examined, and court adjourned for ainner. Before it reconvened in the afternoon, the case had been settled. The defendants paid the plaintiff §1,100, which he took in full payment for his inter- est in the concern. "The divorce case of Wilbur vs Wilbur was then taken up, and submitted. None of the other cuses in the day’s assignment were ready for trial, and court adjourned until 10 o'clock this morning.

The aldermen are strougly in favor of erecting a new city hall. Ata meeting of the council, held Monday evening, the mayor advised the building of a vault in the judge’s roow, off the superior _court room, for the purpose of storing the more valuable records of the court and council. As it is now, there is absolutely no anmcnun whatever for these records aud papers, and a fire would destroy a vast amount of property that could never bo re ed, and the ue of which cannot be es! scattered around the Said the city clerk yesterday: *‘There are more of these books and papers than could be piled nto the superior court room, and the City has no vault of any kind whatever in which to store them, There is no protection from fire, and asiae from that the public has free access to them at all times, 1t is iapos- sible for the clerk to keep watch of them all, and there is nothing to prevent evil-disposed persons from taking away whatover pleased their fancy. It is quite a serious situation for one who fully understands it, and the city is almost certain to pay heayvily for this carelessness, unicss something is soon done to edy it Said the mayor, ““Our present quarters are altogether inadequate. A new city hall 1s one of the crying needs of Council Bluffs, and I would be glad to see the matter agi- tated. Aliof the city ofices should be to- gether, and then city business could be trans- acted by the public with some degree of com- fort. T'ho building snonld contain ofices for every official, council chamber, superior court room, police beadquarters and central station, The present city jail is condemned by every grand jury, and_ it certainly is any- thing but what it should be. Fhe city has ample ground on Bryant street, upon which to erect a building that would be a credit to it. A splendid building could be ereeted for from §30,000 to £50,000, and bonds could be issued for the necessary amount, to run as long as desired. The 6 mill bridge tax wil:] be over with after this year, and the people could apply any desired amount on the pay- ment of city hall bonds. A special election can be called, at any time, to vote on the question, if the people want to be heard in the matter. If they say they want a new city hall, they can have it.” el Dr. C. C.

By the way, I see that yon no- tice the improvement in my language since the time when we were cell mates at Fort Madison, It is due to the daily contact in which I am thrown with the new teachers. The older ones don’t talk that way, and right there is another point in support of my argu- ment, which you will discover later. Butl am digressing. The idea that I desire to im- Dpress on your mind is that the school bourd should dispense with the services of all the old maid teachers, and retain only the young and buxom damsels in full bloom of heaith, Mind you, [ urge this change simply for the sake of economy. 'I'he older ones are good and valuable teachers, but they are ex- pensive. Let me give you a little of my ob- servation. 1 have to go through the various rooms several times a day to sce that the temperature is right and that the ventilation is as it should be. You would be surprised 10 see the difference in the appearance of the teachers and their pupils. 'The weather out- side i3 nice and warm, and the younger teachers have the windows open, steam shut off, and are feeling tiptop. The scholars feel the same way and are as comfortable as could be imagined. 1 step into the next room, where the old maid teacher holds forth. Ste has a little three-cornered shawl drawn down tightly over her shoulders, windows closed, heat all turned on, and is actually trying to freeze to death. The feel- ing is infectious, tho same as in the other room, and the pupils are convinced that the room is rather cold. That is the differ- ence, and I claim that the city is the ' loser by it every year. It is an actual fact that there are teachers who did not turn on the steam in their rooms after the 20th of April except duriug a long, cold storm, and the same year I had to keep the heat on in some of the rooms in the same building every day until the 16th of May. The children stand it all right and are com- fortable in one room, and there is no reason why they should not be in another. That month’s extra coal goes to keep the teacher .

The Union Pacific Wift Abandon Its Tran<continental Tealn, The Golden Gate special qn the Union Pacific will soon be a mateer o1 history. The company has decided to abandon the Golden Gate and discontinue the sarviee as soon o8 the details in the Southern Pagific deal are completed. When this i1s done, the Uaion Pacific will run two fast trains daily between Council Blufts and Ogden, and the Sonthern Pacific will run two fast.trains daily be- tween Ogden and San Franeisco. In view of this, the Union Pacific has decided to dis- continte the Golden Gate_gpeeinl, and this will be done as soon as the train schedules for the - new ar- rangement are arranged. This will bo in about two weeks. At Ogden passengers on the day coaches will change cars, but sleeping and baggage cars will be run through. Mail cars and express cars will be chunged for the reason that the former has special arrungemonts for way station mail and the latter west_of Ogden is operated by the Wells-Fargo Expross company, while east of Ogden the Pacific Express company controls the patronage, However, the deal will result in radical changes in the running of Union Pacific trains.

The aunual meeting of the stockholders of the Union Pacific will be held at Boston to- day. Late indications are to the effect that but slight changes will be made in the directorate and none in the official roster. Iu thenear future a circular will make its appeavance at Union Pacific headquarters announcing the apointment of John W. Scott as passenger and ticket agent of the Union Pacific at Kansas City. The assistant chief clerk will succeed Scott as chief clerk of the general passenger depurtment. The chango will take place about May 1.
