The cowing term of the district court, which opens on the 27th, will be an import: antone. There is an unusually large num- ber of civil cases. The criminal calendar is also large, und embraces two murder cuses. The interest in the coming Kirmess is great. 'I'he curiosity of the public will cause the house to be crowded, and those desiring choice of seats should nov delay securing them. It promises'to be the greatest home entertainment ever given her The date of the old settlers’ picnic and re- union is Thursday, Auzust 2). There have been numerous typographical errors errors in the various announcements so that some may be misled. The reunion takes place at Malvern on Thursduy of next weelk. A laborer engaged in excavating for Mar- tin Hughes’ new building unearthed a watch and chain eighteen inches below the surface. 1t is thought thut it was planted by some one who had stolen it. ‘Ihe watch is in zood condition except the crystal side which was broken. The managers of the Kirmess say that it is not expected that the audience will be in full dress, Lverybody will be welcome in silk or calico. The managers find plenty to do in providing the elaborate entertainment and will leave the audience to look after their own dressing, There 18 much nccessity for having the names of streets placed on signs at the corners. Many of the houses, too, need re- numbering. Some houses have their old numbers yet upon them. Buildings which have been moved from one part of tne city to another, in some cases retain their old num- bers, causing much confusion. James Clogan was arrested i the Mer- riam building by Chief of Pelice Lucas at noon !yesterday upon a warrant charging him with assault upon several men working for Sewer Contractor Miller. The warrant was made returnable to Justice Hendricks' court, and the prisoner was turued over to Constable Foreman. While en route to the court he sprang from the constable's buggy and escaped. Fraok Trimble stood up at the bar of police court justice yesterasy morning to answer to the charge of iutoxication. He demanded atrial. Chief Lucas and three other wit- nesses testified to the effect that he was drunk, and Trimble called out three fellows from the cells who declared he was not drunk when ivcarcerated. Ho was dis- charged with the admonition of the court that he would get thirty days the next time e appeared before the bar, J. C. Lange, deputy internal revenue col- lector, is closing up his official business preparatory to turning over his office to his successor. - That person has not yet been appointed, but the office, which is worth $1,000 a year, is supposed to be coguetting with a good deal of uncertainty, with The dore Guittar, W. M, McCrary, John Fox, L. B, Cousins and several other gentlemen. The appointmect will probably be announced before the last of the month, Boston Gusum, the colored fiddler from Omaha, who played for the Big Lake picnic on Sunday, and was arrested with others, paid $12.10 fine in the polics court yesterday morning. He claims to be tho least intoxi- cated and best behaved man at the dance, und left the Jail vowing vengeance because he was the only one of the crowd who wus inched. He attributes all his trouble to the Pralor outfit on Lower Broudway, and pro- poses to prosecute them for violating the Bunday law by selling whisky to him on that Y.

Colbnel Tom Evans As a T able Talker —Goldberg's Oreditors — Mak- ing Ready For Brick Paving. Anxious for the Lightning to Strike. There was a rumor floating around the streets yesterday which was strong enough o come singing through the windows of the postofiice building. setting the whole force of clerks and employes to buzzing, to the effect thut Congressman Reed had recommended Postmaster Bowman's successor. The airy tongues that bore the rumor along syllabled the name of Mujor Lyman, The mimerous gentlemen who have been hold- ing aloft their lightning rods for a long time in hope to eatch the bolt when it should flash, let them drop for n while to find out who had been hit, * The search was long and fruitless and after it had proved vain they picked up their rods and turned their points and their eyes toward the imperterbable con- gressional cloud whence the coveted bolt must come. ‘The rumor tingled the ears of a reporter and he started to hunt it down, He putan bis wings and boldly {wlu‘lrul\'d the sanctum in the midst of the “cloud itself, and u very pleasant colioquy ensued petween himself and Congressman Roeed. “I hear you- have recommended Major Lyman for the postofice,”” said the scribe. “What have you to say about it!" “well, Il tell you,” said Judge Reed with a droll smile, “If you hear any more about it and anybody asks you just tell them for me-—you don't know." The gentiemen who aro applicants for the position have notified Congressman Reed that they still have their lightning rods up and will keep them there until next Novem- bel The postoffice tight has many elements of interest in it,” said a well posted local poli- tician yestorday. *‘The question involves & good deai for Congressman Reed himself, and I think he feels the responsibilit; Among the prominent candidates are Ste man, Nott, Beers and Major Lyman, Ste: wan has a strong claim upon, the office, and would make a popular postmaster, but there is a strong faction of his own party working against him, His chances are gone. Then there is Ed. Mott: he'd be a splendid post- mas and he’s an old soldier, but he has 100 many opposing him. Reed can’t choose him und have harmony. Then there is young Beers—a first raté boy, but he's un- fortunate enough to be a nephew of Judge Reed. If he was appointed it would raise a storm, for he has never done any- thing’ for the party. When he was Pusey's bank be worked for Pusey’s ele tion, und folks thought he was a democrat, Then he kept still until Judge Reed was nominated, and then worked for his uncle's election on the republican ticket. It wouldn't do to ignore the old party workers and put a nephew in. “What do I think of Major Lyman for postmaster?’ Well, thero's another rub. The major has fared pretty well alreadv at the hauds of the party. teisa splendid lawyer, but not much of a business wan, and like many ctuer great lawyers, a poor finan- cier, It will spoil Judge Reed’s chances for anything more, 1f he gives Lyman this plum. L uuderstaud that souie of the other congress- men are auxious to have Lyman given the postof Why don’t they piteh in and help get bim some good government position? Put him on the bench, say in Colonel Keatley's place in Alaska." **No, it don’t loo if any of these promi- nent candidates can be named without a row and a split that would epoil Judge Reed’ss chances for another term in congress, or for the United States senate. There's a good deal of bad blood, and it’s getting badder.” “*Weil, what about a dark horse?” “I rather vhink this will be the solution. There is D. W. ‘Bushnell. T have heard that he could have it, but won't take it. He'd make a capital postmaster. J. M. Treynor is also named as liable to be called upon. - If he would accept it ne ought to suit all around, or J. C. Mitchell, the ticket agent n fact, any stirring business man, a good accountant, ete., would do, but thero’s been too much talk and too much pulling over the old candidates. Tney’'ve got jealous of each other, and_are bound to feel sore and make rouble. Yes, there's Jumes Patterson, of Stewart Bros. | doun't ke him, but he would make a splendid postmaster. The woods are full of them, in fact, and I think Judge Reed will avoid trouble by naming some such dark borse.” J. G. Tipton, real estote. 527 B’dway. i honl Seidenberg’s 5¢ Figaro at the Fourtain.

John Gilbert, 518 Pe s t, Council Bluffs, Insnlting Ladies On th» Streets, *1 wish the women of Council Bluffs would form a rifle club or some sort of an organi- ation that would famiharize them with the use of firearms and overcome their timidity and fear of such things,” said a prominent business man yesterday. ‘‘Perhaps they wouid then carry such things when circum- stances compelled them to go on the streots unattendea after nightfsll and teach a wholesome lesson to some of the whelps who make a practice of insuiting every woman who appears alone on the streets after durk, There ure a number of young lady clerks em- ployed in my store, and on Saturday and Monduy nights they ure compelled to remain until after § o’clock. Some of them have to go home alone, but they slways arrange to go in company with each other. But the presence of one auother does not protect them and they have been repeatedly in- sulted. One young lady who, by the way, is soon 1w be married to an estima- ble young man, bhas been particularly persécuted in this respect. Of late, she has, at wy suggestion, carried & pistol when she left the store at uight. She has nad one oe- casion to use it since, but woman-like, forgot she bad it uud gave the scoundrel who iu- sulted her a vigorous punch in the face with her parasol. 1 wish more of the women had the muscle and spirit of old Mrs, Fdetcher, the colored woman referred to in Tne Beg this morning, who used the chair with such satisfactory results.” e AR S.

He did so in a very credituble manner, his speech bewng very readable, and doubtless even more hearable, In the course of the response he reluted the following anecdote. He did not state who was the owner of the phonograph, but the Blufites, who are gooa guessers, lay locate Dim, *My friend, and one of my partners in this enterprise, at Council Bluffs, recently pur- chased @ phonograph, He is very much in- terested in electricity, a stockholder and an oftieer in un electric ralway, telephone and avery large stockholder in a phonograph cowmpany 1o lowa and Nebraska.

The brick are even better than his first shipmoants, which were the best of the kind ever r ceived in the city. They were being de- livered yesterday on South Fourth streot, where the excavating is about cowmpleted and the foundation ready for the paving. The laying of brick will be commenced to- wmorrow or Monday. The recent rains have retarded the work of excavating, and espec- ially the sewer work. A stretch of several blocks of diteh for the lutter was filled to the surface by the last rain, and had to be re- moved by @ centrifugal steam pump at a cost of $500.

The rulroad company had agreed to furnish a special train if 100 fares at half rates wore guaran teed. When the train pullea out there wero 222 passengers on board, and others wers taken on at the junction, swelling the num- ber to nearly 250. The train consiste three beautifully decorated reclining chair cars, two coaches and a baggage car. The decorations consisted of festoons of bu nting, potted plants, grasses, etc., and in one of the cars the festive sunflower pre- dominated. ‘The engine, No. 282, was very tastefully decorated with bunches of grain and blue grass, under the direction of L. E. Bridenstein. The train was in charge of the popular conductor, Michael Farrcll, En- gineer William Kelley and Fireman Alf Morganson presided over the machine at the head of the train. Altogether it was a pleasant party that left the Bluffs on the special, filled with the anticipation of a very enjoyuble trip. There were several Q" offici train, among them beiwng J. M. Bechtel Burlington, division freight and pass agent, who'came in Wednesday evenini went as far with the party a Pacific tion; W. J. Davenport, general froight and yssenger agent; M. M. Marsha'l, general ntat this point; J. T. Pugh, gen nt at Pacific Junctio E. Bridens ster mechanic, and George Webster, traveling engineer. Accompanying the party, as guests of the board of trade, were the following membors of the Omaha board of trade: W. N, Nason, C. ¥. Goodman, I, E. Bailey, C. O. Lobeck, E. H. Wheeler and Edwin Davis, A very fast run was made to the junction, where a stop of nearly half an hour resulted on account of a hot box on the engine. Regu- Iar time was made beyond - that point to Red Oak, and from there to Creston some fast running was done, arriving at the city of the Blue Grass palace a few minutes before 11 o'clock. It was expected that there would be a reception committee at the devot, but, probubly owing to some misunderstauding, there was a farlure to malke conn 18 and a part of the visitors got lost in thoe shuffle, as it were, but eventually turned up at the fair grounds, 1t wasto be expected that there would be many little details wanting attention, which, owing to incompleteness of preparations, always attendant on the first day’s excrciscs, had been overlooked. Soou after arriving at Creston the party took carriages, und escorted by Dalbey's Hilitary baad, of this city, Company D, Iifth regiment, I. N. G., of cighton, C ton Five department, and Creston Cornet band, drove out to the grounds. where, afte a brier inspection of the celebrated palace, the addresses of the day were made. The following gentlemen occupied the speakers stand: Governor Larrabec and staff: W. L. Alexander, adjutant general; G. P. Hanawalt, surgeon Daugherty, colonel and a 5 commissul C. Wyman, captai; and mil 'y; Colonel O'Keefe; aide; Governor Thayer and staff; General A. V. Cole, adjutant general; Colonel 13, M. Gorvell, quartermaster general; Colonel M. W. Stone, surgeon general; Colonel H. S, Hotchkiss, inspector general; President Harsh, Hon. Lucius Wells and other repre- sentative citizens. J. B. Harsh, of Creston, president of the Bluo Grass league of southwestern lowa, was master of ceremonies. The exercises opened with prayer by Rev. W. S, Hooker, of Creston, after which Governor Larrabee, of fowa, wus introduced to make the dedi- catory ' address, His rewarks consisted mainly of statistics and politics, for which he wus sovereiy criticized by many of those in attendance, who thought that at best the governor showed very boor taste in taking advantage of such a gathering to make a political harangue, He spoRe but a short time, however, when Governor Thayer, of Nebraska, was introduced. The Nebraska eovernor spokeifor about half un hour, his remarks beiug in the nature of a review of the progress made by Iowa in the past twenty-five years, with many u good word for Nebraska thrown in at in- tervals, Ho was frequently applauded, and his speech seemed Lo put thoe crowd in a'vi happy mood. At the conclusion of his ré. marks the visitors sought the dining halls and lunch counters, In the afternonn the formal address of welcome was made by Hon. John A. Patterson, mayor of Creston, 1t was briefly responded to by Hon. Lucius Wells, vice president of the Blue Grass league for Pottawattamie county, who, in conclusion, introduced Colonel W. F. Sapp, of Council Bluffs, At the hands of this gentleman, the advantages of Pottawat- tamio were portrayed in glowing colors Other short addresses were mude by Spencer Smith and D. A. Farrell, after which the as- semblage was dismissed, and the remuinder of the day devoted to sight seeing. The displays made by the various counties were in every way creditable to them. and were of such size and variety'as to require at least th hours for a thorough inspec- tion. There were fifteen counties repre- sented, each occupying a section by itself. Of course, the center of attraction for the Council Bluffs«dolegation was the Pottawat- tuinie exhibit, and it was of such a nature that no resident of that county ueed have auy feeling, except one of pride, concerning it.” It was without exception the finest dis- play of general products made by any county. The extibition was varied, including vege- tables, corn, small grain, fruit_and flowers. There were 173 variotios of apples and sixty- two of grapes. In this exhibit was the longest blue grass shown by any county, a bunch nine feet tall being displayed. Potta- wattamie also had the bauner cora stalk, it measuring sixteen feet, oue inzh iu heighth, and ten feet Lo the center of the first ear. A twenty pound beet and 8 twenty-five pound cabbage were among the attractions of the vegetabie display, and a piece of grape vine fourteen feet long, containing sixty-two buuches of grapes, was o feature of the fruit exhibit, 1ut it must not be inferred that Pottawat- tawie bad everythiog her own way in the RIDAY, AUGUST 23, 1889, matter of fine displaps. Although she led in the way of a a@cmérul exhibit, there were others which hadliiger special displays. Apparoose vn\fihnd o large exhibit of conl from the Centdfville mines. Mills county made a heavy grass exhibit and a large froit djsplay. Taylor county made a very fine goneral ox- hibit, showing some handsome individual specimens of vezetables. The speciaity feature of the Lucas county exhibit was a largg display of pencil sketchies by pupils of the Chariton public schools. Adair county showed the finest display of the pringipal features being a sheon horse neatly minufactured from small grain and grass, In the Clarko ¢éunty exhibit were some handsome specimens of straw drapery and a cabinet of intricate joiner work. ‘The latter contained over 5,000 pisces of wood, including ninety different kinds. It was made by J. L. Butler, of Osceola Warten county made @ fioe showing of various woods, tile, vegetables and fruit. The Madison county exhibit was mostly wood, including a cabin from Macksburg, built of twenty-six different kinds of wood all grown in that county. ‘The other exhibits in this section were stone and grass, Montgomery county had a very tastily ar- ranged display of grass and fruita. Adams county had a fine exhibit of apples, corn, small grain, potatoes, wood and drain tile. A handsome ceiling made entirely of small grain, in panels, attracted a great deal of attention, The Cass county displav was late in arriv- ng, and was not unpacked until late in the da It consisted almost entirely of manu- factured articles from Atlantic, including starch, soap, condition powders and canned goods, Decatur county showed grass ard corn in profusion. Next to Pottawattamie county Page county had the finest general exhibit in the palace. A handsome modern cottage made of corn was among the exhibits, There were splendid specimens of vegetables, fine fruit, excelknt brick and wood. Notwithstanding the gencral excellence of the displays of othor counties, the palm for attractiveness must be awarded to Union county, the home of the blue grass palace, It was not the variety of articles, as ‘ grass and gran formed the greater part of the exhibit, but the many odd designs into which they wero manufactured, Chairs, cradles, stands, spin- ning wheels, the wheel of commorce, god- dess of corn ana tillage, fire place, fire screen, moss covered buckets, ete. etc., were there in endless variety, which caused this display to be an object of continual interest. An immense pyramid of vegetables was also shown by Union county. The greater part of this exhibit was prepared by the city of Creston, with the assistance of a few farmers in the immediate vicinity, and is a splendid attribute of the skill and ingenuity of her enterprising citizens. It vas quite natural that the Union county exhibit, or, more correctly, the Creston ex hibit, should surpass all others, us articles of home manufacture could be shown which it would be impossible to transport from a dis- tance, but 1t must be said to the credit of the ladies of Creston that they labored long and faithfully, not so much to eclipse ail others as tomake their initia 1 Blue Grass palace exposition a grand and overwhelming suc- The opening was most auspicious, and ises great things, et S The New Ogden, Council Bluffs, finestani largest botel in western Iowa.
