THEY WILL SIT EXECUTIVELY. The Councilmanic Committee Will Hold a Secret Meeting. COMMENCEMENT WEEK MATTERS Olass Day ‘Exercises—COadot Comm! sions—Field Day Sports—The Alumni Association—The Lincoln Elks. 1020 P STrert, Lixcoux, June 11, The councilmanio investigating committee will hoid an *‘executive session” before Fri- day’s resume of the investigation, for the purpose of preparing findings on the cases of Dean and Cooper and the “*bond deal.” It is not known when. the findings will be made public. Members of the committee are rather reticent us to this, but it is understood that they agreo as to what might be called a sectional report. The opinion is freely ex- pressed that two of the committee will favor “whitewashing” the whole business, and also favor discontinuing the investiga- tion. This meeting of the committee, how- ever, will test its sense and the public is maturally anxious as to its outcome. 1tis sald that three. members of the committeo ‘will report findings anything but commenda- tory to Dean, Cooper and the bond dealers who lined their pockets at the expense of the city. If the opinion of the public has any influence the investigation will go on, for itis generally conceded that ithas becn fruitful and will compel certain parties to disgorge and teach alesson that boodlers or persons inclined that way will profit by. ‘The cry that the investigation has beon a farce, will not down. . Citizens und taxpayers of Lin- wcoln bolieve that a better future will result from it, and that this alone will warrant the expense of pushing it.to the end. Class Day Exercises. The graduating class of the state univer- sity bas inaugurated “Class Day,” which will doubtless prove an interesting feature in future commeéncoment pro- grammes.

Over one hundred members, with their friends, were in attend- ance. The hall was very handsomely deco- rated with flags, wreaths, festoons of flow- ers and victures, The address was deliv- ered by Prof, George K. Howard, of the chair of history. His subject was “The Or- igin of tne Modern University.” As usual, he handléed his subject in & masterful ‘man- mer. Ho went back to medieval history, giving an_interesting consideration of the growth of colleges and universities, making & local application of the great geod thit has resulted from the establishment of iustitu- tions for mgher education. The rest of the hour was spent in social communion, and it ‘was very enjoyably passed. The commencement concert was held this evening at 8 o'clock. It was in charge of Miss Minnie D. Cochran, ‘i)llplll and some outside talent. It was held in the chapel of the university, which was well filled, and the auditors were appreciative. The Lincoln Eiks.

In reference to the statements made by members of the board of trade av the meet. ing Monday night concerning the bridge charges of the Union Pacific on freight, General TraMe Marager Mellen said: *“The shippers cannot expect the Union Pacific to maintain & $2,000,000 structure for nothing, On freight shipped from Chicago to Omaha weo add our bridgs rate between Council Bluffs and_Omaba, If we had a line through to Uhicago there wotld be no dis- tinet bridge eharges, or if: our bridge were midway on our line no distinct charges would or could be mado. T do not think that any capitalist would want to invest 3,000,000 a8 the Union Pacific has done in the bridge, and maintain it on the proceeds aceruing from its usage. The amount realized now does not yield a very inviting income on the money 1nvested. Shippers t6 points east may be able to cart the material to Council Bluffs, and ship from there cheaper than from Omaha over the bridge, but the differ- ence can not be any great amount, We do not discriminate, and havo placed the bridge tolls on freight and cars at a very modest figure.” The Grievance Committee. The engineors and officials of the Union Pacific re-assembled yestorday afternoon at Union Pacific headquarters. Another feature of the conference will be on the reinstatemont of Engineer Jackson. The latter, who pulls o freight between Beatrice and Manhattan, 18 alleged to have abandoned his engino at Marysville and allowed the fireman to run it to Beatrice. For this piace of negligence he was discharged. This transpired about two weeks ngo. It is re‘mrwfl that Jackson main- tains that he was dismissed without cause and through projudice, and in consequence this wiil be acted upon before the conference concludes, LA .

More than ordinary interest 18 being taken in the work of the committee appointed by the board of trade on state development. Replies: from various boards of trade and commercial organizations ~throughout the state have encdouraged the committee to prosecute the work at once, and they have decided that the meeting shall be held at the exchange rooms ot the board of trade on the evening of yune 26, at 8§ o'clock. Secretary Nason has addressed a letter, the substance of which follows, to the com- mercial organizations in every ‘town and county in the state: ‘Whereas, At the regular meeting of this board held last eveninkt a report from the state development committee appointed at the pre- vious meeting favorable to ealling a state convention %rewcuv,ing‘ which notice has been sont you), was reccived; adopted, and the committee continued with {nstructions to call' the convention “at such future date as they may deem the most desirable, to con- sist of not more than five delegates fromone or more trade organizations in each county of the state, to devise ways and means and formulate suitable and definite plans “to ad- vertise the resources of the state and secure immigration and settlement of our agricul- tural districts. . We therefore take pleasure in informing yau that we have decided to call the conven- tion to convene at 8 o'clock p. m., June 26 next in the excbange room of the Omaha board of trade, to'which you are respectfully requested to select and send the number of dole%nlcn youmay think advisable, not ex- ceeding five, and as it is desirable to know in advance the probuble number of delegates who will bein attendance from the various " c¢ountics in the state, we shall consider it a favor if you will send us the names of per- sons comprising your: delegation as early as wvossible. 2 Delegates should take receipts for fare paid, as we may be able by this means to se- cure convention rates on return trip, and as the maintenance of such perment organiza- tion as. result from this movement is an important consideration, we would suggest the sucessful accomptishment of the object in which all portions of the state have one common interest, aud shall be willing to 1n- terest themselves proportionate with the prospective advantages of each individual locality, will depend largely on the means employed, connected with which there will be expengos which must be provided for.

At Brownell Hall yesterday morning every- thing was lifoand light and beauty at an carly hour, It was the twenty-fifth annual com- mencement day, and the fair graduates, and the envious juniors, in flufly gowns and smothered in roses, were in an excessively gay and buoyant mood. The hall chapel. in which the exercises took place, was redolent of the breath of sweet blossoms, and, long before the opening hour was comfortably filled with protd and expectant mamas, and smiling, admiring friends. To tho inspiriting straina of Schubert's maguificent Marche Milivaire, bril- liantly performed upon the piano by Misses Fowler, Barse, Blackmore and Clark, the pupils filed into the chapel and | took their seats imniédiately fronting the flower bedecked stage. Following theso came the faculty, trustees and Rector Doh- erty and Bishop Worthington, the latter two taking their soats on the stage. “The Song of Spring,” an entrancing so- lection, was sung by the college chorus with a graceitiness and effect that was superla- tively ploasing. There were but two graduates, Miss Louie B. Roe, of Kearney, and Miss Blanche Buckworth, of North Platte. Miss Roe was the first to make her bow to the audience. She is & tall, comely girl, with large luminous blue eyes and & wealth of fluffy brown hair and _ regular features.” Sho wore a white silk dress, cut square in front, without flower or ornamient, but very striking in its simplicity, The sub- jeot.of her essay was “The Art of Conversa- tion.” It was a carefully written disqui- sitjon, replete with potent truths and choice sentiment, and was most delightfully read. It began by showing what an advantageous f thing 1t is to be agreeable in conversation, oven arguing that the successful in life owe much to their accomplishments in this line. It is the pleasing and witty talker who wins 1n the long run, rather than the beauty of face or grace of form. Scholarly attain- monts, and kunowledge of business in its hun- dreds of phases, are of course potent factors in the successes of life, but one gifted with the alent of an agreeable and entertaining conversationalist rides smoothly over many laces that others less favored flud rough and full of tribulation: “Conversation is an art—the art of arts'in fact; but it must be natural, spontaneous, and not by rote or rule. ‘A poor talker is always a bore, a good one charming despite the cast of countenanco or character of attire. The art of conversationis na- ture’s own mirror, furnishing a true exposi- tion of character, and being always suscepti- ble of culture, is therefore the quinte: ce of art. The sculptor, the artist, the architect and the - musician, are all _combined jn the masterof the tongue. He can chisel the image, paint the picture, build the edifice, and fili the world with melocy and love. It was Cleopatra’s wondrous strength in con- vorsation, in the application of sweet and ingenuous words ' 1b whispered: - tones that vesied her with such power over the hearts of men: and not her transcendantal beauty of feature and form as we are led to to believe in poetry and painting. This art, too, was the secret of Madam De Stacl's incomparable attractiveness, and which made her the nuclous of the greatest minds of her day. Miss Roe was warmly applauded and re- tired from the stage amidst a shower of flowers. Miss E. Wasmer's piano solo, Lysberg's Napolitana, was asplendid treat, the fair per- former evineing a delicacy of touch, toge with a breadth of power and execution, which promises bright things for her in the future. “Fly Away Birdling,” a duet, was an ex- quisite thing, aud beautifully sung by Misses Thorpe and Tishue, Miss Blanche Buckworth appeared at this juncture and read an eloquent essay on ‘‘Micheal Angelo,” and delivered the vali- dictory. Her robe was of white mull, a niodified Grecnaway costume, with tight sleeves and puffed shoulders, sat off with ‘white silk. She has a voice low and soft, and sweet as a bell, and made a decided im- pression in the delivery of her farowell words. ““The time for parting with the class of '80 had arrived,” she began with a noticeable tremor in her voice, “and it was a scene she ‘would fain not dwell upon. The class was small, some had left the school, some dropped by the wayside, until none were left but two.” She went over her iife at the school, comparing the discomforts of insufficient ana meagre quarters of ten years ago, to the luxuries and conveniences of to-day. Then turning to Bishop Worthington, she con- tinued: “To you, dear bishop, we extend our warmest thanks, for your visits, your words of cheer, of comfort and aavice, and if cver the clouds whel us in the days or years to come, it will be with gladdened hearts we recall the memory of our aear bishop. To you dear rector, with whom we have been so closely associated, words cannot express the feelings that crowd upon us at this moment. You have Watched over and directed my life from childhood, guided my steps, and my heart is too full to attempt any expression of the gratitude I feel. Dear schoolmates ’tis hard to leave you, but in the future when I turn my head and look back it will be only the silvery lining to the clouds of regret that will shine until old Brownell glows in brightest refulzence. Dear classmate, and to you, too, musy 1 say farewell, May our lives pass onto the end as worthily, as blessedly as they have been bere, and may good fruit only come. from the lessons we have learned, And again to all of you, 1 bid a loving farewell.” Miss Buckworth, too, was the reciplent of the warmest applause, and flowers in the most lavish profusion, Following this came a piano solo by Miss Jessie Tishue, and another song, the ‘‘Smil- ing Dawn,” by the college chorus, and thea the presentation of the prizes and medals by the rector and vice principal, Miss Lyman, as follows: Medals of honor were awarded to the fol- lowing pupils for 1889: Miss Jessie Tishue, for music, the Max Meyer medai; Miss Anna Saunders, for art, Mr. John Worthington; Miss Carrie Smith, physiology, Dr. Dinsmore; Miss Myrta bbey, HKuglsh literaturc, Mrs S. D. Barkalow; ~Miss Alice Nelson, pre- paratory scholarship, Mr. H. J. Windsor; Miss Angelina Hansen, collegiate scholar- ship, Mrs. J. M. Woolworth: Miss Auna M.

Chase; Miss Irenc Lubaugh, mathematics, Judge Woolworth; Miss Carrie Thomas, church history, Bishop Worthing- to n. After this the conferring of the diplomas by the bishop took place, Rectcr Doherty delivered a brief but well-timed address, and then with “*Gloria In Excelsis,” and the pro- nunciation of the benediction, the beautiful exerclsas closed. e e If you are all run down—have no strength, no energy, and feel very tired all the time—take Dr.J, H.

Yesterday was the gjose of the school year at Towa state institufefor the deaf and dumb, and the usual gradpation exercises took place. Supt. Rothert took the groatest pride in tho exhibit of the wbrk accomplished dur- ing the year, and isstéll a general wvitation to the public to attéddi This was further pleasantly emphasizblliby the announcement that free carriages,aod busses would be found waiting at the northeast corner of the park to convey therf%o the institution and return to the city, The fuvitation was ac- cepted by a lurge number, and when the hour arrived for the commencement of the exercises, 2 p. m,, the chapel was crowded. The exercises opened by an introductory address by Superintendent Rothert, which wias rednced to the sigu language by Prof. G. Wyckoff, vrincipal of the school. The superintendent spoke without hesitation and in ordinarily rapid tones, which were interpreted to the pupils hy the professor with but few, more gestures than the speaker himself used. The intelli- gent and expressive faces of the children in- dicated that every pointand idea was caught, At points when the address particnlarly mot their approval, they demonstrated it by vig- orous stamping and_clapping. At its conclusion Professor Wyckoft illus- trated the methods of awakéning the minds of the children to whom speech and the sense of hearing are denied. The illustrations were very expressive, and conveyed to the visitors clear idea of the pationce and skill required to develop the minds of these pupils. Examples of primary school work were then pgiven by Frank Pilsbry, Charles Starick and Lillie Ward, Recitations in the "G" language were given by the pupils, “Beloved Land” by Frank Ellis and Rev. G. W. Croft's “Arbitration” by Newton Wymer, and interpreted into words by the teachers, Some beautiful calisthenic exercises were glvon, and the essays ana orations of the four graduating pupils were given. Printed copies of the performances were distributed in the audience, and 1t was interesting to watch the attempts to connect theém with the rapid and graceful gestures of the silent per- formers. The first was a_dissertation upon “Steam and its Use,” by G. W. Ashman, of Excelsior, Muhaska county. His essay showed-the researches of a very philosophi- cal mind with & strong tendency’ towards natural sciences. “Education Observation” was the theme chosen by Fred Nobla, of Toolsboro, Louisa county. He delivered it in the sign lan- guage with a great deal of manly vigor. Samuel Seiman, of Bloomfield, Davis county, was the last gradvate, and he parted with his alma mater with an able discussion of “Knowledge.” Gussio Kruse, one of the pupils who has the power of articulation, read very beauti- fully an original essay, entitled *‘Decoration Day,” and it was rendered into the sign language by one of the teachers, for the bene- fit of the other pupils, The year just closed has been a very suc- cessful one for the school and the great state of Iowa, whose splendid generosity has created it, may well feel proud of the work accomplished. SR Manufacturingiin the Bluffs. The advantages of Council Blufts as a manufacturing center are being very strik- ingly exemplified by the success of the new factories that have recently commenced opérations 1 the city. The experimental era has past and the'days of practical appli- cation of the long adnitted fact that the city offers the best advantages for all kinds of manufactures to be found in the west, have come. There is not & factory, large or small, thav has located hero in the past few years that was not prosperous from the start and steadily grown since under proper business gement. The Keyes Bros. carriage and spring wagon factory isa notable instance. The company was induced to locate here upon the representations of the board of trade that the city wo=id afford them facili- ties for increasing their business, and how well those representations were fulfilled is amply attested by the magnificent four-story brick block on First avenue that has already grown too small for their use. The contract with the board of trade called for the employment by Keyes Bros, of not less than twenty-fiye men, in return for the slight assistance given them. It was late in the winter before work in the factory was commenced with fifteen men, Now seventy- five men are employed and more are still de- sired. A Beg reporter went through the immense fuctory yesterday, and found it to beone of the busiest places in the city. He was shown just an even 1,000 carriages bug- gies and road vehicles' in process of con- struction, and several car loads ready for shipment. Think of it! Making carriages and buggies, not by the tens of dozens, but by the thousands! And right here in Coun- cil Bluffs, too. Inquiry revealed the fact that they were not making this immense uumberof vehictes for fun or for the pur: pose of putting them upon Some unknown or future market, but were making them upon specific orders and were away behind with their contras The trade covers our own and sll adjoining states and reaches far to the territories. The present building, immense as it become too small, an been contracted for to be completed by fall, and betiveen 2.500 and 8,000 comvleted turn- outs will be made this ycar., They must make good work at prices that. can compete with eastern factories, or they could not control the western market. ‘Their success is a complete answer to the question, and vigorously in the afiirmative: Can manufac- turing be made to pay in Council Bluffs? —— Rebuild the Factory. Since the burning of Strock Bros’. sash and door factory a movement has been started ta organize a stock company and re- build the factory upon a much larger scale. The movementis meeting with the encourage ment it deserves, and its backers are assured of its success. The business has been estab- lished, and the large plant contemplated will insure increased business. With the excep- tiou of perhaps two wachines and the engine, the loss on machinery is complete, and when rebuilt the factory will be filled with the best and latest improved machinery. On the day of the fire there was work enough under con- tract to aggregate $10,000. When it is under- stood that this involved some good orders, and that many of them came from the out- side, from territory adjacent and tributary to Council Biuffs, the importance of the factory to the city can be better “appreoiated. The Strock Bros, and others interested were cun- vassing the matter with the board of trade, yesterday afternoon. Fersonal Paragraphs.

At the last meeting of the board of educa- tion a bill was presented aud referred to the finance committee, for $64 for expenses of members who went to Lincoln to lobby in the interest of a bill vesting the title of the high school site in the bourd, and against the bill vesting vhe title in the ecity, Five mem- bers of the board made the journey: Messrs. Saville, Goodman, Spaulding, Recs and H. T. Clarke. Mr. Clarke says he went down on private business. As there seems to be a diversity of opin ion as to the rightof the board to pay bills of this character, the folfowing members were seen and their opinion ootaned. Sheriff Coburn thinks the whole thing is out of order, and that there 18 no law author- izing the payment of such expenses. Mr. H. T, Clarke denied that the mem- bers went to Linceln to ‘‘lobby,” but says they went to *‘look afterthe interests of the city.” He denied, very indignantly that they had been doing anything underhanded, and said he thought they used their best judgment in the matter, Mr. Goodmun tliinks the board should be allowed to contract any expense for the in— terests of the board and city. *If the bourd is to be tied hand and foot, what is the use of having & boardi He is of the opinion that the board should pay the bills of the members on their trip, Mr. Fred Millard, a member of the finance g?lrlnmmeo, is opposed to the paymeniiaf the Mr. McCopnell, chairman of the finance committee, thought the members should not be detailed to goto Lincoln or auywhere, pay their own expenses. He was not pre- pared to express an official opinion on the matter, as the committoe have not yet held a meeting to consider it, but he was fayorably inclined towards the payment of it. Samuel Rees, a member of the board, and also of the legislative committoe, was seen and asked what he had to say concerning the matter. “I have given but cursory attention to the matter,” said he, *‘but 1 can see no reason why the bill shouldn’t be paid. The only question in the matter is, whether the board had authority to send the committee to Lin- coln; if it hasn’t authority, why is a legisla- tive committee appointed. I only went down there once, and for the good of my pocket I think it is as well Iddp’t go oftener. My expenses on the occasion in question amounted to about $5, and I don’t think any one could do much ‘junketing’ on that.” —— Scottish Rite. ‘fhe A.and A. 5.
