The electric traing were taxed to their full capacity during the entire day and until mid- night. The Manawa trains were taxed to their uttermost to provide sccommwodations for the immense throngs of people who vis- ited the lake, and continued to run after mid- night to accommodate the crowd. Miss Grace Swearengen, one of tne re- contly elected teachers in the public sciool s, has tenaered her resignation, giving as a rea- son therefor the desire to attend school in Philadelphia durimg the coming year. Tho board will experience no Jifficulty in filling the vacancy before the opening of the fall term of the schools, as there ave many ap- plicants for the place. “Che plun to raise sufficient to educute Davis, is a laudable on earnest encourageniel performed an uct thut entiti to public consideration, and public policy favors the development of the hiero instinct displayed by the brave boy. In many of the churches yesterday special collections were taken up for him. Arrangements are being perfected for an excursion over the Ck & Northwestern road to Lake Manuwa some time during the present week.

A good deal of interest uttaches to the ex- periments being conducted by John Hammer n the attempt to manufactur d-burned brick in Council Bluffs. The experimental kiln was scaled up yesterday after having been fired the requived length of time, and when the cooling process i completed the results will be known. 1t is expected the necessary time will have elapsed by Wednes- day, when the brick will be taken out. The question of finding a solution of the waterway problem i the alley in the rear of the Empkte and Straub blocks between Main and Bancroft strects will be considered at the regular monthly meeting of the council this evening. Notices of prop owners that they will hold the city responsi- ble for ail damages caused by an overflow have been filed by nearly all who own prop- erty abutting the alley, and the estimates of damages made by the gentlemen reach a sum between $30,000 and $35,000. aha Bicycle club came over the Broadway bridge early yesterday morning en route on a cycling tour to Glenwood. They were closely followed: by the Polo club bound for Crescent City: A number of the members of each club remained in the city awaiting the return of their comrades, The ridge from Omaha to the Bluffs satisfied them that Glenwood aud Crescent City were too far away, and that it would be famo enough if they rode back to Omaha with the boys when thoy returned from the trip. ‘I'he o!d Planter hall on upper Broadw: has been purchased by J.

The historic old pile will be completely re- modeled. The republican primaries on Saturday evening developed the fact that the three leading candidatee for governor have about an equal number of friends in the city. In two of the wards the delegates were instruct- 8d by resolution to oppose in the county convention any attempt to instruct the dele- gates to the state convention. Unless the country delegates change tho aspect of things it is certain the Pottawattamie dele- gates in the state convention will be permit- Ted to distribute their votes among all the aspirauts for the chief honors of the up- oroaching state election. The Council Bluffs Fishing and Hunting club will hold a meeting this evening in the directors’ room of the savings bank. The club will transact some other business be. sides tho election of officers, and a portion of it is understood to be the apoiication to the state fish commission for a supply of game fish for Lake Manawa and the adoption of some wronclad regulations that wi'l compel each member to prosecute every violator of he fish laws of the state that comes to his kuowled A penalty will bo provided for failuro that will b very severe.

The Mayor's Proclamation Falls to Lock the Saloon Doors. POINTS TAKEN FROM THEPULPIT A Milk Inspector Needed—Krainey's Missing Bond--The FPleasure Beeckers—General and Personal Notes. A Quict Sabbath. Tn consequence of the vigorous enforce- ment of the mayor's orders concerning Sun day closing of the saloons, yesterday was a phenomenally quiet day in police circles. So far as could be ascertained by the day re- ports of the police thero was no violation of the order in any pact of the city. These were tha facts apparent from the police records and as reported by the officers, bat an investigation among the saloons showed that the mayor's new order had but little ef- fect. The front doors as a general thing were closed, but a gentle push was the open sesame to side and rear doors, The clinking of glasses and the flzz of the foaming boer was perhaps not quite so loud, but it was loud enough to attract at- tention from the strcet. The only arrest made upto 6 o'clock for violation of the mayor's order was that of John Olson, a Sivede, who kept open until after 11 o'clock Saturday night. He gave a bond for his ap- pearance at Y o'clock this morning, I'hie previous orders of the mayor on same subject and of the same tenor have been obeyed for a while by the chief part of the saloon keapers, but boldly disregarded vy a few, who appear to consider themselves s not accountale to the laws of the land or of common decency. [But it was hoped that under pressure of the mayor's explicit in- structions ull of these pluces would be closed lay, front and back. hat they were hot is the fact, and the fact 18 a proclamation from the saloon men to the mayor, equally ex- plicit as his own, to mind his ‘own business and they will continue to conduct theirs in_a mauner suitable to their own conscience ana the trade. - The pleasant temperature and the half hid- den sun made the day very ploasant for riding and walking, and the principal streeta w filled during the day with well dre crowds and fine turnouts. The parks and other | of amusement were crowded all day, th sple enjoying the unlimited shade and green grass to the utmost. The number of visitors at Lako Manawa was greater than the Sunday previous, and a day of un- alloyed enjoym sed, devoid of nc- t cr noteworthy incident. There were many strange faces in the throng, strange alike in Council Bluffs and Omahy, where re- side the butk of the visitors to the lake, af- fording a striking proof of the fact that the ad its artractions are draw- sure seckers from o wide scope of the ing ple territo; - Kelley & Younkerman sell groceries ) and Sanborn coffees a specialy. - anted, one or two good teams as first nent on _houss and lot.

B, Frai- ¢, deceased, has created u little ripple of excitement, and called attention again to a many other strange disappearances of uable documents from the court house. rainey was appointed executor of the estate, and required to give a bond of $500 for the faithful performance of his duty. Relatives of the dead man came into court and charged Frainey with having violated his trust and squandering the property. pon this showing of the facts the court dis- missed him and appointed Walter I. Smith in his stead, and orderod Frainey to turn over all the property to the new executor, Instead of doing this Framey left the state, and left his bondsman to settle with the court to the extent of the bond. Suit was commenced by County Attorney Organ to recover the value of the bond from the boundsman, Dan Carrigg. When the case alled Saturday the most diligent b failed to rev the bond, ana con- tinued in the most thorough and systematic manner yesterday it was equally fruitless, ‘‘1his frequent disappearance of valuable papers from the county offices deserves more attention than it is receiving,” said a member of the bar yesterday. ‘“There has scarcely been a term of court for years that somo caluable puper has not been spirited away at a time when important results depended upon its production in court. It caunot be charged o any carelessness on the partof county officers, but rather to_the custom that pre- vails, and has prev for years, of pej mitting interested parties to go to the origin: records and examine them at will. [t may secin & harsh remédy, one that will put a great many honest people to a great deal of expense, but 1 believe that the time ha come when the only means of protecting the public records to bo safely relied upon 1s to furnish ouly a copy of documents to peop! who desire 10 look at them and require them to pay the cost of making the copy. The original documents would then nover get nto unsafe hands, and when we filed a paper it would be with reasonuble assurance that it would remain there to be found when wunted.” " g il xplosions p cool and use our gas stoves.

The manifestations of matter showed that law governed it. It had continuous existence, The form of mat- ter could be changed, but matter itself could not be destroyed. It had force also. Law always came from & source higher than what it governed. The laws governing matter were from a higher source thun matter itself, The perfectuess of the law and its applica: bility indicated o divine origin.
