ALL ABOUT COUNCIL BLUFFS Interesting Legal Proceedings In the District Court. THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES. The Electrlo Motor Company Gazos On Lake Manawa—The Disciples of Henry Gsorge — Notes General and Personal, Fan For Court Spectators. Thero was very little interest for outside spectators 1n yesterday morning’'s business in Jdistrict court, but there was some very in- teresting testimony introduced in the after- noon, that induced the attorneys to cluster as near as convenient to the witness stand, and the spectators crowded as close to the railing as it was possible to get, 8o that not a word should be lost. It was not a spioy di- vorce suit, or of the kind which usually draws a crowd to hear a rehearsal of dis- gusting and nauseating dotails, but was s'm- ply one of the saloon cases, in which John A. Landstrom is plaintiff, and George F. Boulton attorney. The case is entitied Landstrom vs Chris Rudio et al, the other defendant being Thomas Metcalf, the owner of the building, No. 612 Broadway, against which an injunction was sought. Jacob Sims appeared for Metealf, and Colonel D. B. Dailey for Rudio. It was evident from the start that tnere was to be con- sidorable horse play, and that Boul- ton would be the vietim of i He moved for a judgment by default, a8 no record appeared of any answor having buen filed by the defendant. Then the fun began. The defendant’s attorneys demurred objected, excepted, filed motions, verifiod answers, ete., ote., until Boulton was nearly wild. 7The attorneys outside the case all became intensaly interested, and the fact $00n became ent that Boulton was fight- ing the wholo bar, If there was anything that the two attorneys employed could noc think of it was promptly suggested by some of the others. The court could not help but see what was going on, but 1t was all dono 8o quictly tnat there was no occasion for interferen For fully two hours Boulton was mercilessly “horsed,” to the infinite amusement of everybody but himself. Kven the witnesses took a hand, and would testify to anything but what he wanted them to. Finally the court got weary of the exhibition which Boulton wi making of himself, and told hun that he was wasting the court’s time in making foolish ob- jections, and that it had required longer to get through the preliminary mat- ters than should have been required to ‘ry the case. At length ho was called as a wit- ness by the defense, und then ensued such a questioning as would take the stiffening out of the knees of a marble statue. Colonel Duiley took the first hand, and after com- pelling Boulton to acknowledge & number of things around which he tried unsuccessfully to squirm, the witness was turned over to Mr. Sims. As is very well known, Boulton and Sims are the attorneys representing the two classes of prosecution against the saloous, the former representing the disgruntied ex-saloonists and the latter the temperauce alliance. Con- siderable personal fesling been engen- gered between the two gentlemen, each main- taining that the other is in the business for revenue only, and that he is not sin- cere in his efforts to close the saloons. In the answer filed by the defendants it is ulso charged that Boulton, Ford, Gray and Landstrom have entered into a conspiracy to prosecute the saloon for the purpose of black- mail, or in other words, to get what they can out of it. There have been several lively tilts be- tween the gentlemen heretoforo, but yester- day was the first time that either of them has had a chance to handle the matter with- out gloves. Boulton was on the witness stand, and Suns shot questions at him with the bark on. There was quite a jungle as to who paid the money with which Boulton was conduct- ing the case. Boulton insisted that he puid it himself. u the money with which to ir. Boulton am, now if it please the court I don’t think that 1s a proper question, and I shall object to answering it. The stutute provides that communication between counsel and clients are not to ve revealed in this way.” ‘The objection was overrule “‘l\\'ull, but I don’t think itis at all material, and—"" *It doesn’t make any difference what counsel thinks. I have overruled the objec- tion. Answer the question.” “Well-er-er, I don’t know.” “Isn’t it a fact that Dave Gray gave you money with which to prosecute these cases, and this one in particulari" A n't say that he did. I don’t remember anything about it.” “Haven't you been paid money to go ahead with these cases, with the understanding that all the purties who put up the money should have a share of the attorney’s feesi” “Now then, your honor, I am accused of conspiracy, und I don’t think it is rignt to put me on the stand to testify against my- self.” “You can take advantage of the statute, and can refuse to criminate yourself,” said the court tersely, while several winks trayeled around the court room. Oh, no, I don't mean to do that,” replied Boulton hurriedly, *but [ thiuk that the covrt ought to decide that it is an improper question.” “The court don't think s0," cawe the chill- ing answer.” Again Boulton’s accommodating memory came to his relief, and he could not remem- ber that any such agreement had taken place. Likewise as to Gray’s going to Mr. Everett and guaranteeing the rent of Boul- ton’s office. Boulton tried to get in his say a few times, but Sims shut him off. “Didn’t Gray tell you that he had been en- joined from selling liquors in the state by a decree of this court?” “I don't know that he did. But I know what he did say,"” with a triumplant look av Sims, *‘He told me that—" Never mind that, answer the question?” “‘He told we about a certain building which has au injunction against it, and you—-" “Never mind that: pever mind that. If your honor please, we would like to have the Witness answer the question.’” “‘Well, I guess I havo some rights here, and will tell what I choose,” “No you won't, you will answer my ques- tions, aud tell nothing but what I ask you." So ' the battle progressed, and Boulton realizod that he was helpless in the camp of the Philistines. He saw that the jig was up, and slid out of it as quietly and quickly as he could when he was finally released from the witness stand. The case was submitted and taken under advisement. e — Fine jewelry, watches and diamonds; cleaning and repairing at 1.

'here wuas no wranvilng in auy of the wurds, and the delegates were seleoted in & very few minut ‘The “‘Bioody Fourth’ failed to sustain its reputation of former years, und many who uitended for the sole purpose of seeing some fun went away dis- appointed. The following are the delegatos selected from the different wards: First Ward—Phillip Loeffel, Wall Mo~ Faddeu, Jawes Wickham, F, H. Guanella, B &, Watevrman, Cal Maynard and Mike Goodwin. Second Ward—G. A. Holwes, chairman; R. N. Whattlesey, secretury, Delegates— G. A Holmes, William Groneweg, Thomas Bowman, F. P, Bellinger, J. F. Brodbeok, Henry Wagner, W. H.

The only ficht in any of the caucuses seemed to be on sheriff, and the delega- tions from the Third and Fourth wards are solid for O'Neiil. The First and Second are divided, being about balf for O'Neill, while the remainder are either for Forman or op- posed to O'Neill. It is claimed by some that the entire city delogation is for O'Neill, but this is hardly probable. It is anticipated, however, that O'Neill's support from the out- side county will be suMcient to guarantea his nomination beyond the shadow of a doubt.

Rangueting the Bridge Company. A very pleasant and enjoyable event was the reception and banquet tendered the airec- tors of the Omahu & Council Bluffs railway and bridge company and a few other gentle- men at Hotel Manawa last evening by Mes,rs. S. P. McConnell and E. H. Odell Those present were Hon. Georgo T. Wright, Hon. Guy C. Barton, J. H. Miliard and John . Stewart, of the bridge company; John N. Buldwin, Hsq., Charles P. Brastan, Ben- jamin Marks and Colonel F. C.' Reed. The party left Broadway at 5 o'clock, mak- ing the trip to the lake over the Manawa motor line. On reaching the luke they boarded the steamer Rescue for a half hour's sail _about the lake, visiting Manhattan beach, Wright's landing and _the dam at the outlet. Returning to ' the hotel, they sat down to a sumptuous dinner. 'The return to the city was made about 9 o'clock. "The visitors expressed themselves as very favorably impressed with the lake and its prospects, and Messrs, Millard and Barton were highly pleased, it being their first visit to the place. It is understood that an elec- tric line w the lake early next spring is much more than a ‘bare possibility. It is intimated that the Main street line will be extended along the present drive to the lake. 1t is hinted that there will be two tracks, one on either side of the road, but as none of the interested parties will talk about it, other than in a general way, this is a matter of conjecture, It is given out cold, however, that the company thinks very favorably of the plan, and talk of building the coming spring. If such a move does actually result, it will mean very extensive chauges and im- provements at the lake.

They could not out the rope in time, and Gordon was killed, his body being horribly mutilated. One of the perpetrators of the joke lost his reason from the shock. —— Suicided to Escape Snakes. SALT Lake Crry, Utah, Sept, 18.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bee.]—A man named Christian Jensen hanged himself in the city juil yesterday afternoon. He first severed an artery in his wrist with a broken bottie and afterwards hanged himself to the bars with his suspenders. He had been picked w p early in the morning by the police asa druu . Physicians say he was suffering from delirium tremens which prompted him to do the deed. B Woman, The San Francisco Report pays the following glowing tributo to the better half of the human race: Who saves up for a month for a por- sonal treat and then shares it with the whole family? Womun. Who turns deadly ill at the sight of blood, yet stands recklessly in its vain in time of war or accident? Woman. Who eats scraps noble (?) man may dinnec? Woman, She is a heroine in danger, a coward when looking under_the bed. And yet there are ‘‘persons” who claim that women do not understand the meaning of the word courageous. It's a libel, for true courage shows in the little things of life. = Women are forced to deal with the smaller side. They have to marry men. S'JACOBS Q] For Strains and Pains.
